i. Hi ; ) i ; A pathy of the public, but merely tojjourned on Friday evening, at 7 show that we have acted consist-! o'clock, after an interesting ses- cnt.lv and independently. As for the frivolous stories that have been circulated with a view to in jure us, respecting our having printed neater for one party than lor the other, wo care nothing about, as they are palpable false hoods; but admitting thev were true, we subsist by our labor, and we can assure the propagators of them, that we print neatest for those who payusttosf." An Editorial mob and duel. The elections in Alabama arc progressing, and the canvass has been characterised by considera ble passion. iienry S. Foote, Ksq. the Editor of the "Tuscum bia Patriot,' in the course of the newspaper discussions, assailed with great severity a Col. Win ston. Ileing called on by one of Col. V . s sons to retract the of fensive expressions, the editor re iterated them, and was instantly ! and 6 at So. Duty 40 per cent sion afivc days. The members separated in peace and harmony, after passing resolutions of thanks to the President and two Secre taries of the Convention, and also to II. Niles and M. Carey, for their long and unwearied exer tions in favor of Manufactures and Internal Improvements. A re spectful arid brief memorial to Congress was adopted, and ten thousand copies were ordered to be printed of the proceedings of the Convention, and of an address to the People of the United States. The memorial recommends a du ty of 20 cents on all wool over the value in a foreign port of 8 cents, and 2i cents annually until it reaches 50 cents. Woollen goods, with a few exceptions, of less than 50 cents, to be valued at 50 cents; those between 50 cents and $2 50, at 82 50; those between 2 50 and .$4, at 4; those between $4 it tacked by several of the "Win ston party,"' and severely beaten. The timely a.irival on the spot of several citizens of Tuscumbia, the editor thinks, saved his life. The most conspicuous of his assailants were Win. Winston and Dr. J.J. Dillard, (formerly of Amhcrst,Va.) both of whom were challenged by the editor, and both refusing to fight, both were published by Mr. Foote. A duel has since been fought between Mr. F. and Mr. Edm. Winston, skin-deep wounds were indicted, and the parties separated. Rencontre. The lluntsvillc Ad vocate of July 27th, informs us that an unfortunate rencontre took place in that town on Monday evening the 22d, between Jas. W. APCiung, Esq. and Andrew Wills, of lluntsvillc, which eventuated in the death of the latter. The cir cumstances out of which the quar rel arose, we understand, were briefly as follow: A short time t:iuce, a communication signed 'Patrick Henry," was published jii the paper called the Democrat. edited by Wilis, containing some severe strictures upon the conduct ol .dr. M 'Cuing, which he cousi itered wholly unjustifiable and highly injurious to his character. lie called upon the editor, and demanded the name o( the author -f the piece. This demand was at first refused, but at length an intimation was given him that, the ii.ame would be given up on Mon day last. When the day arrived Mr. Wills appeared in his office armed, and refused to comply with the demand, or to make the "satis faction required by Mr. M'CIung. Several attempts were made by ;orne of the citizens during the day to bring about a settlement of the matter between the parties, which proved unavailing. Thev met in the evening in one of the streets, both armed, when the rencontre immediately ensued, & Mr. Wills was shot, and expired in about two hours afterwards. per cent, annually to be added, until it amounts to 50 per cent. Iron is recommended to stand at one cent per lb. Cotton goods, hemp and flax, and grain, are re commended to the favorable con sideration of Congress. Such we learn is an outline of the features of the memorial. tive Body of his own country a) proof that the b rench people have at length learnt to appreciate his worth. The recent melancholy tidings trom Greece are but too certainly confirmed and we fear that the failure of the expedition for the relief of Athens, has set tled the fate of the present cam paign, at least. We perceive no change in the markets. Paris, June 20. The Marquis de la Fayette has been proclaim ed deputy of the arondissementof iMeaux, by a majority of 141 out of 281 votes. An article dated Vienna, June 13th, says that news had just been received from Trieste, of Lord Cochrane having obtained a great advantage over a Turkish fleet. By an article from a Paris paper, of the 23d June, it appears that decisive orders have been given by Russia, France, and England, to unite their respective fleets, to "separate the combatants" (Creeks and Turks.) After the melancholy intelli gence of the late disasters in Greece, it is refreshing to learn that there are indications of a dis position among the European powers not to abandon that peo ple to their fate.
