Y'-'v.-" FAT PERSONAGES.
Our neighbor of the Joiinhl last week alluded
to our respectable Representative, Mr. Ashe, on
account of his being fat, ac i tated the fact that
the SpartanS whipped, their, citizens for being too
fat for tho exercise and the service of Sparta, on
the authority of Mr. Baccs, who states, this thing
as a faet in his Historic Portraits: We,;dare say
Mr. Bruce Intended to ho entertaining ant amus
ing, without being particular as to . hlstocical pre
eisioo. ,.: '''" i
' TTjo jUtrna would not intimate thlttofit wor
thy Kepresentativc has become too fat to be of
crvice to the State, of course hut such would
be theOference some folks would draw froi t wo
of the issues of the Daily of last week. -
It may be understood, and we desire kll our
f. iends to consider the matter, that fat, if not an
iadication of honest, is an auxiliary to that vir
tue. . Fat men become lazy, and it requires all the
time they are willing to use, to be honest. , Thus
the Poet saith : -f
"IloneU men are the soft easy cushions,; $
"On wlucb knaves repose and fatten."
Tho writer meant fat to be sure, when he said
honest tho words being tantamount, equivalent
&c And the' doctrine is tiere inculcated that
knaves do not become honest till they get fat.
Alas for,somo folks we could mention if we were
not inclined to be silent hi a matter so delicate.
For we admit, that though fat may be delicate to
beef &c., leanness isagreat ingredient in the deli
cacy of man ; though it sjieaks nothing for his
honesty, as the argument shows.
We call to emortmcc Caezar, the ancient gentle
man who wrote the illustiions Commentaries
admired by all who have read them as well asly
maay who hare not. What docs Crczar say,
according to the truthful Shakespeare 1
"I like not that spare Casisus ;
"Give me some fat ran near me." , ,
Excellent Csezar a man of most intense discern
ment But be fell by the dagger of a pretended
friend whom he loved as many a man has fallen
since his day, with and without the steel ; some
by treachery merely. t
Another instance of the superiority of the ele
ment of which we are treating, is found In the
words of Sir John, as recorded by tho Bard of
Avon. "There live but three honest men unhang
ed in England" (said Sir John) and one of Ihem
is fat and grows old." How the two jean'ones
become classed among tho honest is not said.
But things marvellous have happened inevery
age. v--
Even in the present day, there are? lean men
who are susDected of honestv and fat men who I
who are suspectca ot nonetj mtMntn who j
are snspecieu oi ucing uiuei iau. 4 o iuvu v
personal application in this matter, and, will not.
certainly be so inconsiderate as to make the appli
cation of the latter clause of the ahdve sentence
to"onrself."
Friend Asns and ourself maTJ' mutually and
severally defy the world for. If they givo us
credit for nothing else, they cannot deny our fat.
Though neighbor Asms may htj awarded the merit
of being faithful to his constituency peradven
ture be is a "terrible dimtnecrat," as an excellent
personal friend once said of another who shall be
nameless,' at the present 'Writing.

ARRIVAL OF UTIIE AMERICA.
THREE DA YS LA TER FROM E VROPE.
Actual IIosiLliltis between the 1irkish and Russian
Troops. Jfe.
Halifax. Sept 30. The steamer America, with
Liverpool dates of Sept. 17h and 126 passengers,
arrived last night. She encountered tremendous
gales on the passage. The Baltic arrived out on
tho 14th.
The passengers report that the Turki&h army
had actually attacked the Russian outposts.
The Czar was understood to be willing to ac
cept the Vienna note and evacuate the principal
ities,, provided the Sultan's modifications were
stricken off. A new jnanifciUo was expected from
Russia.
At Constaminepie the war spirit was 5n the as
cendant, and the walls were covered with placards
calling ou tlie fulthtftil to fight against the Russians.
ENGLAND.
Mr. Buchanan had declined the invitation to
dine with the Liverpool Chamber ot Commerce.
The cholera was spreading io London and Liv
erpool. There had been over 150 deaths at New
castle. Mr. Marsh, IT. S. Consul to Madeira, had arri
ved in England.
The weather was very unsettkd.
The steamer Western had arrived at Liverjool
from Brazil, wkb Gen. Lopez, Minister from Para
guay. Buenos Ay res dates to July 30 had been re
ceived. The next day after Urqniza fled on board
an American steamer, his troops surrendered, and
the Pi evince became entirely tranquil. Business
was reviving. Urqui.a, at last accounts, was qui
et at Kutre Rios.
THE EASTERN QUESTION.
On fhe special demand of the Four Powers, tfie
Sultan has consented to postpone the issuing of
his manifesto to his people, which is said to be
couched in warlike language, and to amount to a
declaration of war.
The Turks continue their armaments, and every
thing is paid for promptly in specie. A new levy
of 80,000 men was progressing actively.
Detachments wer- constantly inarching to join
Omer Pasha. A reserve corps was being formed
at Adrianoplc, under Mthemet Pacha. The Sul
tain reviewed the Egyptian troops on the 30th
August. The Tacha cf Egypt promises to send
15,000 more troops.
The Russian Commander at Bucharest had is
sued an order to his troops, saying that Russia
was called upon to annihilate Paganism, and all
who opposed her w ould be annihilated.
t.Omer Pasha had sent a warning to Prince Guts-
chakotf, that if the Russian gun-boats came too 1
near the Batteries thev would bo sunk. I
. -,Tho
Dragomen of the Russian Embassy had ar- '
tived at Constantinople, attended by several steam-
ers.
,.It is reported that the French Ambassador ur
gently persuaded the Sultan to recall his modified
HOteicven after ho had forwarded it to St. Peters
burg". . ..The troubles between the Ilospodars and the
Porte continue. The latest dispatch says the Sul
tan has given- rhem )ermission to remain in the
Principalities:
, DIED.
Wit.t.mM Kirk Patrick, a native of Ireland, was
taken sick on board the Brothers' Steam Boat
Company's Flat, and was taken off by the steamer
lirwan, Capt. Barb&k, aud brought to this place,
where he died on the night of the 2d instant.
