A few days ago we found hi our'deslTapainphletof fifty-six pages, containing a Review of the Orthography of Dr. Webster's series of hoqkC We regret that the author, (Mr. Cobb,) has limited hi.s criticism to orthographical inconsistencies :M absurdities ; for important and necessary as we t .'onsi Jer correct spelling, Mri Webster's, innovations ::i this respect are venial indeed in comparison witli - the disregard which he manifests for the settled usa- .s of the iannriihnre. and the anomalies into which -i' rn n I The cloven foot begins to show itself, j We have been brought to feel a degree of indifference in regard to the union of the States, a diminished reverence for it as a primary blessing." Reader, from what quar ter of these happy United States would you look for such a sentiment? Surely not fro'rn Massachusetts. Read, then j and satisfy yourself From the New Hampshire Patriot. Nullification in. Boston. The following paragraph is copied from the Massachusetts Journal, a paper edited by Mr. Webster's " friend in the gallery," and an excellent National Republican print. Had the the same sentiments been avowed by any editor south of the P otomac, what a shout of Treason would have been 'intered against him by this patriotic press. nit is Konor thnt tv it remain united for n whilp Inn- ger, in order to see if a better spirit and party may not get the upper hand there; but we must avow that we have been gradually brought to feel a degree of in difference in regard to the union of the States a di minished reverence for it as a primary blessing. One thing we are sure of; so long as the fierce ambition of a part to govern the whole shall continue, the U- niou cannot; be happy, nor lpr any length of time ben eficial. If there be any thing worse than for enemies to be apart and at War, it is tor them to be together in Jorced friendship. Cottonand Sugar Crops. The New Orleans Emporium, gives the following account "tyr'the Crops in Louisiana and Mississippi : " The Sugar crops are likely to be better than we expected ; we fear, however, they will falf short of the usualquantity the past cool weather has assisted the cane to ripen. The Cotton Planters, we fear, will not reap any thing like lull crops. Our friends from Mississippi, give very discouraging accounts of the cotton crops in. that State. , The rains, winds and rot, have doiio the planters great injury.?' The New Orleans Bee, says " An Ordinance was passed in the City -Council yesterday, iipon the subject of bringing slaves into this 14ie penal clause is to rounding a prase and pointing a diatribe against the administration, than to the interests of the country. The folly of the childish declamation ag-ains the Porle and the impolicy of sending a Charge instead of Minister of high ran, are now apparent enough j j .4 Pole pleading- for Poland. At a. recent meet ing in Washington City in favor of the Poles, the following incident occurred : - Several speakers had addressed the meeting, some of them very eloquently, and all with effect? when CoL Leiimanqwsky arose and stated that he was a Pole by birth, but had the honor of being a citizen of a man of Herculean stature, with the bold, .frank bearing of ah old soldier addressing a large assembly, amongst which are ma ny ladies. He has just enough of a foreiga accent to remind you that it is a Pole pleading for unhappy Poland tears are slowly trickling down his face and he says ; i ' " I have seen much misfortune in my time, but it could never make me weep; now, I cannot restrain my tears, for I am pleading for the cause of my na tive land before the inhabitants of a city which bears the name of Washington, and in his name I ask you to aid the cause of liberty. God is my witness ! that, if ever the freedom of my adopted country sbould.be threatened, I would shed the last drop of my blood in its defence. Yes ! and this boy should also fight for America !'.' As he uttered these last words, he held up his son, a fine spirited-looking lad of about ten years of age. All this may look simple upon pa per, but the effect upon the meeting was electric ; long, loud, and hearty cheering followed. Surely, thought-' I, this answers Demosthenes'! definition of oratory ; it is indeed " action !" A short and comprehensive Sermon from the Portsmouth Journal of Saturday . last : . Newspaper Borrowers. Reader, if you have bor rowed this paper, send it right back as you may feel cheap after you have finished this paragraph. If the tailor sends a new coat home to you, would you think your neighbor fair in his request for the first use of it ? If the baker leaves yOu a hot loaf, should you like to lend it to your neighbor and have it returned cold with the corners gnawed off ? j . If the penny post, leaves a letter on your counter, should you think it right in your neighbor to seize it, before you had time to read it, to tally a load of pota toes on itj and thank you for the use of it some hours after, if he should not be so unfortunate as to lose it. If these things tare not right then it is not ria-ht to borrow a newspaper on the day when it is pub lished . x We have received a; request from one of our sub v I 1 r - the penalty-to go to the informer. The stipulations are, that any one introducing or bringing slaves into the city, shall, within twenty-four hours after his and their arrival, report the same to the Mayor, accom panied by a statement, upon oath, of the sex, age, and ills singular fancies would lead Ins followers, bhouldj t - tin . . . s t.,t r dictionary be established as a standard bv the btate.

We always believed that thai rrtost per uicioud of all elementary books would ". never have made its way but for the fortuitous cir- f cumstance of its having appeared at a moment when English publications, and indeed every thing else that was English, were undertteban of proscription. Its merits certainly were not accessary to its popularity. When Mr.-Webster's dictionary was announced,"we , looked for its appearance with much anxiety, mixed, v:e confess, with fears for its fate; for, by means which aFe inexplicable by us. he has become identi - lied with the literature.of the country, and this abortive 'attempt at a Btandard,! "will he looked upon by for eigners, as well as by a numerous class of readers in I 1 " our own country, with reference. to the surreptitious ,' reputation which interested booksellers and others have bestowed upon its cohipiler. Our worst , fears . have been realized; and we regret that such plains have been taken to draw the publick at tehfion to a work which will inevitably anni hilate the claims" of the compiler to the , stand L a luch he had assumed in the republick of letters. . Credit ie certainly due to Mr. Webster for his indus ; try; if it has been misapplied, his judgment is in faut, and he will be the principal sufferer. He states in hu preface to the octavo edition, that he has added . 1 about sixteen thousand woFds that are not to be found in any similar work ( But he does not tell us that ubout eight thousand of these are the participles xf verbs, and totally unnecessary in a dictionary, and that six or seven thousand" more are confessedly ob solete. . . ' i The labours of Sheridan, Walker &c. to establish a jiwt'and uniform standaixl of pronunciation, predi- r- cated on the true principles and long established ana logy of the language, are generally disregarded by Mr. Webster, and settled rules yhlcli other orthoepists " lbk upon, as laws whereby 4o govern their judgment and regulate their opinions, are received or rejected as capriciously and unreasonably as if his word were i'.iw, and his descisions infallible. In Mr. Cqbb's re view he gives some thousands of w;ords in the spelling rf which Mr. Webster is at variance, not only with others, but with himself, and we have no doubt that still more formidable list ; of errors that are much more injurious to the language could easily be made. ' A uniform pronunciation of the unaccented vow-els, . p difficult of attainment, and at the same time so in - tlisptnsable to correct speaking, can never be acquired from the labours of Mr. Webster. Indeed he seems to consider this of so little importance, that he has 7 even set aside the rules which other lexicographers had established to guide us in this respect, and has ku this important particular to the judgment of his readers. In the word expiatory, ?, a, o, and y, are Ja this predicament, and 4ch of these may be dis. torted through all the variations of sound which ap pertain to it, at the option of the speaker. The i in j the second, and the a in the penultimate of expiable, as well as a thousand others which our limits forbid us to enumerate, are in "the same state of uncertainty. ' ; Polite ears will not readily sanction antipodes, re duced to three syllables, and accented on the ante penult ; ah4 berdj for beard, ;rick for creek, heerd for heard, perse for pierce, ferse for fierce, lev-er for le ' verr ple-nary for plen-ary, ri-siblefor ris-ible, Bhone for shon, elaWth for sloth, swOrd for sorde, tin-y for ti-ny, waist-coat for wes-cot, and zee-lous lbr j zel-ous, are sounds which none would venture to use, who areun j willing to risk the imputation of vulgarity. His division of words into syllables is another great Ejection to his dictionary. Ex-pir-a-ble,; iri-frig-i- The high estimate upon tlie character and administration of President Jackson abroad, is a source of just pride to his friends at home. We rind the following in the New Orleans Ad vertiser :- Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Mexico to his friend in this City. datedSOth Sept. " It is truly gratifying to learn that Gen. Jackson notwithstanding the unexampled efforts of a deter mined opposition, still retains the undiminished sup port and confidence of the people. His Administra tion is indeed marked with such distinguished integri ty, energy and wisdom, that it must swell the bosom of every patriot with feelings of admiration, and ade sire for its triumph and durtiou. His successful and advantageous negotiations in relation jto our foreign intercourse, are. incontestable proof, acknowledged by Foreign Nations, of his ability and superior qualifica tions as a (statesman. ! " The most intelligent men of this countrv are well character, as is with tliem acquainted with his private and public well in the field as in the cabinet. He! a la orite: champion of liberty, and his name is never mentioned by them but with tiie deepest respect and the greatest veneration. The result of the approach ing election in the United States, is of vital importance to the nation. Every friend of his country should be vigilant and active at his post. But 1 have such en tire confidence in the intelligence and virtue of the people, that I cannot entertain a doubt they will sus tain the man whose patriotic and enlightened mea sures furnish such ample testimony of his devotion to his country and her institutions.'7 We yesterday (sayg the ISew-York Kvenirigr Post of the 9lh ihl.) published a letter from a friend in Constan tinople, dated August 20, )83, in which the writer af firms with some confidence that cunmodore! Porter, vvho has been sent out as Charge d'affaires to Turkey would be received, and the treaty of which he went out the bear er, ratified. We have this uiorniris been shown a letter Trom the game gentleman dated some four dav3 later, in which he; expresses his doubts a- to the conclusion to which he lhad previously arrived We copy th- parts of the letter: that relate jo tiis subject. EUYUKDERY, Aug 24, 1831 "I wrote a few days srncf to a short ;and hurried letter, in which 1 am fearful that 1 have gone further in vouching for the reception of Commodore Porter, than the fact-will warrant. The a!usive language which has been sb liberally bestowed on the Porte in Congress, has been collected and transited here. This has iriitat d the high officers, and the delay in sending out a minister has inci eased this irritation. At last a United States! vessel presents itself at the Dardanelles, with a person tyled iiii! American minister on board, as such he is al lowed to Lome up, and when his powers are to be verified, he turns but only to be u Charge. This with us would be considered as a small matter ; but here, where diplomatic rank is regulated by the high court of etiquette at Pera, it is considered as an insult. It vvas in vain that it was urged that the United Stated never couid, from, her situ ation, have any political relations with Turkey, that her views were exclusively commercial and that a Charge was sufficient for that purpose. To this it was replied that we had sent ministers to the insignificant countries of Chili and Colombia, and thought that the Emperor could be fobbed off with a Charge. Austria, Sardinia, England, and perhaps France, hav.i of course fanned the embers, arid all are tickled with the idea that the Yankees will be excluded from this country. Russia alone has been, and-1 believe will continue to be, our firm friend throughcut. 1 he facts connected with thig case are, I believe, principally these. The Adams arrived on the 9:h inst. and anchored outside of seraglio point, below the city, where he still lies. Porter landed about the 16th, hired a house for a year at tuyukaery,, and lives there entirely unnoticed by the Government. No ex change of salutes took place on either side, but a salute was given bv the Adams when Porter left the ship. The danis will sail on Saturday, and the officers giumbl at the utter want ol civility show n towards mem. i nese are the facts ; of course you will have them embellished by the European journals. I learn that by a proviso in tiie treaty ; or in the arrangements for it, (I do hot know which) it was in fact ratified as soon as they received offi cial notice from our government of its ratification by our senate : i but this is extremely doubtful. At any rale, I must be allowed to express my belief that no American man-of-war w ill for a long time be permitted again o pass the Dardanelles." With respect to the sending of a Charge lo the mag- iiticent barbaric monarch of the easl, our readers may possibly j. recollect how it was occasioned; if not we can retresh their memories. A committee, friendly tb the ad ministration, in the House of Representative repoi n d in idvur oi, sending a Minister, The recommendation was notiy resisted in the House by all the strength of the opposite: party, but unsuccessfully. When the bill got r w- ifi oenale- a"er a good deal of debate about the iuwiwr. Webster moved to amend it bv sub stitutmg a Charge d' ASaires for a Minister The motio. w, H,m ne bill set.t backabout ,he clos of iur S..n to tne House, where th onnnotinn conlrifct to gel a majority for concurring with the Senate: as to the auuscmvisueaonine i urkish nation in Congress, it came irom certain memoers ot the House of RonrxKntmim Tristram Borgess and one or two others, who looked more We presume they are not such persons as lie can very vejl deny the use of the paper. Sb it is with you borrower, whoever you are ! The person vvho lent you this, although he apparently did it with much pleasure, wished that you would take the paper your self and not take his new coat, hat loaf, and letter ; belbre he has made full use of them himself. . The following compliment to our nation, is contain ed in a letter written by a Russian of great distinction at St. Petersburg to a rnerchantof this city, dated September 2d, 1831. N. Y. Post. " The concurring events of every day, increase our interest here, for the prosperity oTyour beautiful and noble country. Poor Europe seems destined to become a prey of war, discord, and political phrenzy, and to compel nearly all of her inhabitants to cross the Atlantic' to your peaceful shores. Russia is the only country that affords a prospect of future tran quillity.r' - , ; . Parliamentary qualifications. A candidate by the name of Chadvvick, in standing for a seat in the British House of Commons, sums up his qualifica tions tnus " I am no man of family ; I am no man of business, I have never been used to it :. but I can shout, lauorh. hawk, afid spity andcough, stamp, hiss, hoot and huzza ; and what more can be wanted from an M.

We are informed that che Mail Coach, which left New York at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, an ived here at twenty minutes before one this morning. There are eight changes on the road ; three minutes and a half being allowed for each, with half an hour lbr supper. Thus the actual time of driving was eight hours, and forty minutes. The passengers were seven, with driver, baggage, and ten or twelve hun dred weight of mails, the whole weight estimated at nearly twenty-five hundred pounds. This certainly excels any driving yet recorded. We understand that the stock on the middle routes, on this line, has been re-purchased by Col. Reeside ; that Trenton has been the place for taking supper in going East, and New Brunswick in coming this way from New York. The splendid Troy coaches are furnished with excel lent horses with careful and obliging drivers. The public will be pleased to hear that this line is now en tirely owned by Col. Reeside, whose own enterprise and energy, with the zeal and activity of his agents, have made him famous throughout the United States. Fruits. Citron, Currants, Teas.

Mr. Editor, We Derceive that a Mr. A. B. in the j Raleigh Register, interferes very unnecessarily in the affairs of Newbern. We would by no means offer disrespect tp the gentleman, but we are of the opinion that the good people of our town are tolerably capable of taking care of themselves. On the subject of a Town Member for the Assembly, the Raleigh cor respondent seems extremely anxious, and his opinions on the subject are either misunderstood by us, or they are too exclusive to suit the present state of the case. There are now two gentlemen before the town, to either of whom we are quite willing to confide our interests ; and when the question of a Convention comes before the Legislature, we know that the wishes of his constituents will be strictly attended to by the person whom we shall select to represent us. A. B talks of this being a " momentous crisis in the affairs of North Carolina." We do not understand him. If he means to say that the value of town lots in Raleigh is in danger of decreasing, we agree with him that such will probably be. the result ; but Xhis il crisis" wil exercise but a partial influence over the affairs of the State. We wilfteli Mr. A. B. for liis comfort, that the wishes of the People are for a Convention, and we see no cause why they should be disappointed. BAH! MARRIED, On Thursday evening, by the Rev. Dr. C.
