The Rhode-Island Republican — Newport, R.I., 1810-11-21 00:00:00, page 3

In an official report of the Russian army,
it is stuted, that an action bhad been fought
with the Turks, on the 7ih ult. which lasted
from ten o’clock in the worning till seven in
the evening, and the result of which was, in
the words of this aceount, that the Tuckish
army * was no more.” It is asserted that
thev lost 5000 men killed, that their camp
was surrendered by capitualation, and that al)
ding the Maod of the'r fellow creatures. And
the Republican party are as free to exempt
that philanthropick people fram miiitary ser
vice, as are their most exccllent friends, the
federalists. But we do not hold, that such
exemptions ought to be Aereditary in the
families ot the Quakers. Nor do we believe
that all such, as wear a drab coat,or a flnt
hat, are to be considered as genuine Quakers.
Nor that such persons ought be exempt from
military service, or an equivalent in money.
But after all, upon what grinciple of reason
or christianity, thc people calling themselves
Tremblers, ought 1o be exempt, while the
rest of the community are compelied to per
form military drudgery, or pay an enormous
fine, we do not, we cannot understand. It is
in fact, making the Tremblers, and other
comscicntious beings, a privileged order j—
which is not, nor eyer ought to be known in
a Republican form of Government. There
Is no reason wihich autho: izes the exempition
of ene portion of the community from con
tiibuting their proportion cof services and ex
penses, while the orher poriion are obliged
to serve, or pay their equivalent in moaey.
But (he exemprion from military doty was
not ull these sage Legislators hud o view,
when they passed this conscientious law,
These friends of England, and enemies to
their own country, were apprehensive that a
war between the Untied Suates and Great-
Britain might take place, and they doubtless
intended, on such an event, that under the
Jorce of conscience, this state should once
more, expericnce all the hocrrours ol war,
without resistance. Nor is this all. It was
dntended by thew to operate as a powerlul
political engine, and to be brought into use
at the spring clection. They expect by this
act 1o secure the syfrages ol the reul Quak
ers, the guakerish, and all such as are oiher
wise * conscienciously scrufiulius agaiust bear
ing arms,” or of paying an equivalent in mon
ey, In the protection of their country, and the
stupport of a good Government. Bui, say
some, who are not so conscience bound, are
we to e dragged from our homes, and our
families, dear as they may be o us, to go
fi.ht the battles, protect the property, liberty
wud lives of such as are thus conscientiously
scrupiulous against bearing arms ¥ And what
are these conscientious beings o be doing to
benelit their country, while we are engaged
io the field of war, in the service and delence
of the country ?
LUNDON, ocT. 1213,
Oct. 13—The Letters bmt@»t by the Gottenburg
mails of yeste day are from Petersburg.
The letters received by the Muils are from peters
burg to the 24th uit. from Riga to the 28th and from
Konnigsburgu to the 30th. Those from Stockholm
and Guitenbury are to the 2d and 9th inst.
* Toose [rom Pelersburg acknowledge that
the Russian army in Turkey has received
many severe discomfitures. The exchange
at that copitol had fallen to 11 1-2 d. from
which ruinous consequences were apprehen
ded ; and it is observed in one of the letters
that there is litte doubt, under present cir
cumstances, * if Eogland will come down
bandsomely” (meuning, we suppose, in the
way of subsidies,) * that Russia will make
peace with her, and declare war against
France.” All the ships at Cronstadt were
Joaded with Russian produce, and were pre
paring to tuke their departure.
It was rumored at Petersburgh that there
was 8 probability of hostiiities commencing
in a short time between Russia and Aostria.
The letters from Konigsburgh express se
rious adpechensions that all the Prassiun har
bours wonld be soon closed upon English
commerce, under whatever garb meacantile
indeneity might dusguise it.
Conatantinople, Auguast 13, 1810,
Another warhus broken out in Egypt, through
the iustigution of the English. The noted Enghsh
agent, Fuirami, who falsely styles himself a Swedish
Consul, has incited the Beys against the Porte, and
against the Pacha of Cairo. The cuompaign has been
opened in the neighbourhood of Cisch. The Bn’,;liah
have thus withdrawn the atteniion of the Pacha of Cai
ve, Irom the fotillus thes hiove formed in the Red Sea.
We know not to what the British faction n
this state will resort to next, 10 aid and assist
their dying cause. Nothing will be neglect
«d, which, in tneir opinion, will secure their
clection the next spring. Thew conscien
tious law, is a mere political bubble. And,
we doubt noty but if they should have a ma
jotity in the General Assembiy rbe next
spring, and there should be no difficulty be
tween the United States and their friends,
the English, this lew of conscience wiil be re
peuled.
We shall, however, rest happy in the be
licf, that our indefiendent ycomanry, will
disckurm 10 be cajouled out of their sufrages,
by such paliry tricks.
On Tuesday evening last the ship Sally,
Scott, of Beston, bound to N. York, arrived
at New-Loudon, in 32 days from Bordeaux,
with sixty pussengers, among whom was gen.
Armstrong, our late minister in France, and
his family. The information brought by Gen.
A. will not, probably, be comniunicated to
the publick till he reaches Washington.
