It will he recol iccted that this constitution was adopted in the year 17o ; at atimc when the peo ple of the sevcr.il states were in an actual hostility with dre.it Hiitain. fighting for lint independence t he v afici wards ob tained, and which was continued by the Treaty of Peace of 17b ;. This (Ii .D'l Jury aie fat front wishing to throw cny kind of blame upon the wise tid patriotic men who formed the pics cut constitution. It was, perhaps, the bc;t that, under all the irruiustuin.es of the case, could then have been adopted. The presence of a pourtfiil winy in me country made it necessary that the It is Mature should meet frequently, in order to provide for the diliinc of the St.;'e, afid t repair the injuries infilled 0:1 oar citizens and propeity bv the Ibiiiih ai rnv, itid by dis,.(vcrted citizens in vaiiuus parts if the state, f his unsettled and distuibed state of the countiy recpiired the constant and unremitted attention and vigilance of the State Legislative; and, consequently, the constitution provides that the General Assembly ih.ll meet at least o:,ce in ev ery year. Hut will any reasonable man now bay, that in a time of profound peace uid quietness, there is a necessity tor an Annual meeting of the legislature ? mure especially, as the defence ol the romi'ty i$ confided to the general government. This Grand Jut y would beg leave to call the attention of the people of thrii county to the acts of the Icgidatuic paired annu ally for the last ten or fifteen yeais, and to point cut a single act that required the immediate interposition of the legislative bo J jr.

I omitted it for a few days, and they commenced rooting ; I gave it again, and they discontinued rooting.

Thompson, from Liverpool, we have received our regular files of London pa pers to the 3 July, and Liverpool lo the 2d August. Intilligi nee had been received from Spain, via of Paris, that a counter rcvolu ion had broken out at Madrid, and that V ,,iil. had placed himself at the head of : . :.val paity,and had rescued the King t f the handi of the liberales. This news, however, is not credited. The Couiici doubts its authenticity, in fact the intelligence received of the destruction o! the guard, and the triumph of the . onstitutionalists. render this statement i n worth v of crcdi'. There is a great con ste rr ."ion in Madrid, and things still re- account of the death of the Cant. Pacha, the chief actor in the tragedy at Scio " Divine vengeance begins to be dis played, and the cause of humanity has found avengers. The Captain Pacha, that ferocious niussulman, who plunged all the inhabitants of Si io into the abyss ol calamity, no longer exists. I he Cireeks have displayed a courage and a boldness, the result of which will resound through all Kurope. On 'be 2d June, the eve ol the feast of Bairam, three (ireck vessels charged with combustibles, passed the Turkish fleet, and, under cover of the friendly flag which thev had hoisted, ap proached the ship of the Admiral. The Tuiks, occupied wit'.i preparations fur their feast, paid little at'ention to the fire ships, and the Creeks had thus time to throw their fusees on the Admiral's ship, which soon was in (lames. Disorder im mediately spread among the crew, and each man tried to save himself from the conflagration, X he Captain Pacha, hall burnt, was transported to the blood trained shores of the Isle of Scio, which lie had atrociously Lid wjste ; where, after hall an hour of torment, fie expired- Three Tuikish vessels were much damaged, and the rest of the fleet dispersed in different directions, dreading an attacked from the (iretk fircships." M V H TOOL, MO. 2. A letter fiom Si. I'. teisburi'h. of the 10th July, gives as frightful accounts of the deplorable state of the Kussiau Peas antry, as the letters from Ireland contain of the wretched suffering of that popula tion. The farmers ran get no buyers for their produce, and the people aie peiish inj with hunger.
