From Europe. By the arrival of the packet ships York and Cad mus at New-York, and the Alex ander at Philadelphia, accounts from the Continent to the 3d, and from Liverpool to the 3th ult. have been received. The Hon. John Randolph, has arrived in the York, in good health. The Cotton Market was again depressed, and the prices had de clined nearly one half penny per pound. The papers still speak of the distress prevailing in the manu facturing districts of England; and of the winter coming on without the prospect of amelioration. Mr. Gallatin had returned to London on the 15th Oct. well pleased with his courteous recep tion m Pans, and having been in It was reported by the last steam boat from Hamburg, that an ex nress had iust arrived there with intelligence of the assassination ofi the Grand Seignior, at Constanti nople. From the London Globe, Oc. 27. We are far from entertaining any hostile or jealous feelings to wards America, the advancement of which has been and will be of ereat service to the whole world- hut wo Act not see whv the East India Company's possessions, which are not included in the Or der in Council, should not also be closed against American ships as soon as the existing treaties per mit. By Important from Colombia. r an arrival at Philadelphia recently been made by the Woolen man ufacturers, to.eflect a vigorous and sim ultaneous movement for this purpose; and from the ambiguous and diplomatic character of Mr. A's productions gene rally, we are frequently compelled to draw conclusions not from what he says, hut frnm what he means. The Yan kee Nation' has doubtless been profited by the operation of the Tariff; but what equivalent has it yielded the Southern section of the Unionour commercial traffic was principally with the British West Indies, and their ports have been shut against us; our staple commodities lie dormant, or are forced into unnatural channels at a ruinous sacrifice; and the price of every artocle for use or consump tion, has increased and is increasing. It is in vain to exclaim against the injustice or impolicy of the British government we led the way our Tariff regulations will eventually exclude their manufac tures; and, as Mr. A. remarks in our c?se, leaves them no alternative but that of "re:ulalinr. or interdicting altogeth- our trade.

Ncwbcrn Sent. Whimsical Climax. In reference i0 the expression of a northern Editor, tu "North-Carolina is the last State in ,, world, from which we would expectant thing good to come," the humorous vJK tor of the Warrenton Reporter says: "The best Military and Nava Officers in the last war -the best regiment of Infantry and Riie men the best cider and brandy- the best winethe best cotton-. the best rice the best tiirrber the best tobacco the handsomest women the most sensible men and the swiftest Race Horses ever seen at J. York are from Pionh Carolina." pons naa giv Mr. Canning had also returned to London. The visit of this gentleman to Paris, has, accord ing to private letters, been not without important political results. Among them the following are supposed to have been agreed up on that the general peace of Eu rope shall be maintained; tjiat Spain and Portugal shall cease to receive deserters from each other, and abstain from mutual intrigues prejudicial to both; that Russia shall deal with Turkey in her own way; and finally, that Greece shall be rescued from the yoke of the Musselmans. In what manner the latter noble, though tardy de cision is to be enforced, docs not yet appear; but it is understood that in taking it, Russia, England, and France were agreed. No latter intelligence from Greece nor any certain advices of the movements of Lord Coch rane. Russia had commenced in ear nest the war against Persia; and was prosecuting it successfully. The most important articles are the official declaration of war a gainst Persia by Russia, with a statement of the successes that have attended the arms at the first onset. The British Press says, "It is vain to attempt to disguise the question concerning this war. The interest of Persia is scarcely more compromised by it than that of Great Britain: and .settled it must he without further encroach ment on the part of Russia, or England must at least obtain some advantage equivalent to that of Kussia, &, sufficient to render her successive acquirements of no im portance as points of attack on our Indian possessions. The spi rit of conquest has infected the whole nation of Russia: and dis guise rtvSsT we may, something must be done in the only practic able way to check her career." It is not likely that the general peace of Europe will remain un interrupted for many years longer. The letters from Paris, state that official accounts had been re ceived from Constantinople, that the Porte had formally accepted the Russian Ultimatum, and that a! 1 reaty of Peace had been signed t Akermann. Davis, and Jacob Barker, charged with a conspiracy to defraud the public, terminated in the City of New-York on the 1st instant, when 'these portentous indications staring usjthe jury rendered a verdict of !in the face, the manufacturers still cry,!

President's Message. The second Annual Message of President Adams, has been received by the community with a better grace than the first and deservedly so. The first could claim affinity with the day-dreams of visiona ry enthusiasis; the second is a plain matter-of-fact document, presenting a bird's eye view of our internal and external af fairs, There are several important dis closures in it, however, which require the calm and deliberate reflection of the Southern people. The first, is the ex clusion of our vessels from British A merican ports; the second, the decrease of our revenue; and the last is embraced in the following sentence: "The diminution, (of the revenue,) how ever, is in part attributable to the flourish ing condition of some of our manufactures, and so far is compensated by an equivalent more profitable to the nation." Can it be possible that Mr. A. is in favor of a further increase of the Tariff it must be admitted that this passage bears an awful squinting that vyay. If the "flourishing condition of some of our manufactures," has profitably compen sated the nation for the diminution of its revenue, it certainly is a powerful incen tive to render further assistance to oth ers, We know that great exertions have idolph hail arrived at Washington, and cured, he ascended by a ladder, 1.1 1 .'.to.. . - taiien ins seat in me senate. and was then launched into eter nity.

The Legislature of Ohio,at their last session, passed a law, taxing Lawyers and Physicians in a sum not less than fixe, nor more than fifty dollars per head, as the Court ot Common JPleas, in each Coun ty, in their own discretion might levy. The Court in Cincinnati ordered five dollars to be levied and collected from each one, which has been the occasion of a very large meeting of the two profes sions in Cincinnati. The meet ing, in an able report, pronounced the law to be unconstitutional, and have determined to resist the pay ment of the tax. until a decision can be had by the Supreme Court. Among all the laws of which have seen or heard, this is perhaps the strangest and most unjust.
