An animated delineation of the character of the Highlanders, extracted from Belsham's history of Great Britain.
THE Viscount Dundee had inflamed his mind with the perusal of the ancient poets and historians, and yet more by listening to the heroic achievements celebrated in the popular and traditional songs of his countrymen. His army was entirely composed of Highlanders—a singular people, of whom it is not sufficient barely to mention the name. Amidst the clouds and darkness which envelope the high and remote periods of historic antiquity, it appears from strong presumptive evidence, that at this era the Highland nation exhibited the unmixed remains of that vast Celtic empire which once stretched from the pillars of Hercules to the sea of Archangel. The Highlanders were composed of a number of tribes or clans, each of which bore a different name, and lived upon the lands of a different chieftain. The members of every clan were connected with each other not only by the feudal but the patriarchal bond; and each of them could recount with pride the degree of his affinity to the common head. The castle of the chieftain was opened and easy of access to every individual of the tribe. There all were hospitably entertained in times of peace, and thither all resorted at the sound of war. They lived in villages built in glens or deep valleys, and for the most part by the side of rivers. At the end of spring they sowed their grain, and at the commencement of winter they reaped their scanty harvest. The rest of the year was all their own for amusement or for war. In the short interval of summer they indulged themselves in the enjoyment of a bright and lengthened sun, and in ranging over a wild and romantic country, frequently passing whole nights in the open air among the mountains and the forests. They spent the winter in the chase while the sun was up; and in the evening assembled round a blazing hearth, they entertained themselves with the song, the tale and the dance. Their vocal music was plaintive even to melancholy, but their instrumental was bold, martial, and animating. In order to cherish high sentiments in the minds of all, every considerable family had an historian who recounted, and a bard who sung the deeds of the clan and its chieftain, or on more solemn occasions the glorious exploits of their heroic ancestors. The vastness of the objects which surrounded them, lakes, mountains, rocks, cataracts, seemed to expand and elevate their minds; and the severity of the climate, with the nature of the country, and their love, in common with other semi-barbarous nations, of the chase and of war, forced them to great corporal exertions; while their want of regular occupation on the other hand led them to contemplation and social converse.
They received the rare and occasional visits of strangers with a genuine and cordial hospitality, never indulging in a rude or contemptuous ridicule of manners, opposite to their own. Considering the inhabitants of the Lowlands in the light of invaders and usurpers, they thought themselves entitled to make reprisals at all convenient opportunities. What their enemies, therefore called violence and rapine, they termed right and justice; and in the frequent practice of depredation they became bold, artful and enterprising. An injury done to one of the clan was held, from the common relation of blood, to be an injury to all. Hence the Highlanders were in the habitual practice of war; and hence arose in various instances between clan and clan mortal and deadly feuds, descending from generation to generation. They usually went completely armed with a broad sword, a dirk or dagger, a target, musquet and pistols. Their dress consisted of a jacket and loose lower garment, with a roll of light woollen, called a plaid, wrapt round them so as to leave the right arm at full liberty. Thus equipped and accoutred, they would march forty or fifty miles in a day, sometimes even without food or halting, over mountains, along rocks, through morasses; and they would sleep on beds formed by tying bunches of heath hastily and carelessly together. Their advance to battle was rapid; and after discharging their musquets and pistols, they rushed into the ranks of the enemy with their broad swords; and in close fight, when unable to use their ordinary weapon, they suddenly stabbed with the dirk. Their religion, which they called Christianity, was strongly tinctured with the ancient and barbarous
superstitions of the country. They were universally believers in ghosts and preternatural appearances. They marked with eager attention the variable forms of their cloudy and changeful sky; from the different aspect of which, they foretold future and contingent events: and, absorbed in fantastical imaginations, they perceived in a sort of ecstatic vision, things and persons separated from them by a vast interval of space. Each tribe had its peculiar dogmas and modes of faith, which the surrounding clans regarded with indifference, or at most with a cold dislike far removed from the rancor of religious hatred; and persecution for religion was happily a species of folly and wickedness unknown and unheard of amongst them.
The battle of Marengo is said to form one of the finest feathers in the cap of French victories. That our readers may see in what distressful scenes, and seas of blood the laurels of war best flourish, we publish an extract from a work written lately by a Mr. Petit, a Frenchman, giving an account of that celebrated engagement.
THE clock at Marengo struck ten, when we were returning slowly towards San Giuliano. Numbers, harassed with fatigue, but more for want of sleep, dozed upon their horses' backs, but were every instant roused by the painful cries of those who were borne across firelocks or temporary hand-barrows; or of those who, abandoned and scattered in the fields, implored our aid. Thus every humane and sensitive heart was penetrated with that melancholy to which the true soldier is no stranger, and which does him so much honor. Horses limping here and there, upon three legs, calling to our own by their instinctive neighings; at every step too it was necessary to turn out of our way, so as to avoid treading upon the wounded. The ditches and the road often presented the scene of caissons, and other carriages, as well as cannon, overturned. Further, off we beheld houses devoured by the flames, and tumbling upon the heads of the wretched owners, halt dead by the fears which had driven them to the expedient of hiding themselves in the cellars and other subterraneous places. The total darkness which surrounded us, made the picture additionally frightful.—Prisoners, not knowing where to go, but with the hope of escaping, wandered at random. If they were met by the French soldiers, bending under the weight of their comrades, they were forced to turn back, and bear on their shoulders those respectable burdens.
At length arrived at head-quarters which served as the ambulance to the army, every one stowed himself, as he could among the dying and the dead, without the piercing cries of the former being any longer to surmount the violence of sleep. The next morning, hunger taking its turn to prevail, I, in a melancholy condition, entered the great court to look for something for myself and horse to eat. I was there struck with a sight so horrible, that I shuddered all over. More than three thousand Frenchmen and Austrians, heaped one upon another in the yard, in the granaries, in the stables and out-houses, even to the very cellars and vaults, were uttering the most lamentable cries, blended with the severest curses against the surgeons, there being too few to dress all their wounds at once. Every where I heard the languishing voices of comrades, or of my particular friends, who begged of me something to eat or drink. All that I could do, was to fetch them some water. In truth, forgetting my own wants, and those of my horse, I staid more than two hours, running backwards and forwards performing by turns, the part of a surgeon and an hospital attendant.
Prisoners were brought in from every part, which increased the number of the famished. In short, this was a day that appeared of an insupportable length to all of us. However, an event which gave birth to a great many conjectures, moderated in some degree, our endless inquietudes. An Austrian officer came to parley, and a French aid-de-camp for our immediately to Alexandria. No one knew any thing of this business, and yet every one made a gazette of it, after his own manner. Brethier went off to that place about noon, leaving us all in the greatest expectation, for no one dared to hope for that which we learnt the next day to have been obtained. We were early in the morning informed of the news of the armistice, which filled the French army with a joy never before
experienced; while that of the Austrian, storming with rage, filed off the next and succeeding days before us, on the field of battle, still reeking with their and our blood, and where the dead carcasses began to taint the air with their putrid exhalations.
And now a supply of subsistence and other necessaries began to arrive, as well as carriages for the conveyance of the sick. A fraternal partition of these comforts was made among all the victims of that bloody day. Without any inquietude or jealousy, the Austrian was seen with the Frenchman, who, two days before, would have cut one another's throats. They were seen to receive from the same hands under the same roof, in the same chamber, the required help and the urgent care of succouring humanity.

FRANCE.
ARMY OF OBSERVATION OF THE SOUTH.
THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF TO THE TUSCANS.
Head-Quarters at Florence, July 28, 9th year of the French Republic.
"TUSCANS,"
"The French people are united to you by the bonds of attachment, founded on reciprocal esteem—they respect your morals and your usages; they are persuaded that the felicity and the virtues of a nation depend on a perfect harmony between its disposition and its laws.
"The Prince who is to govern you signifies that he is about to take up the reins of the state—you retain a just veneration for the institutions and the memory of the Princes who raised this country to the highest degree of splendour. The first act of Louis the First's authority is to confirm the work of their wisdom, by assenting to all the laws and all the regulations which they conceived and established. Your native land is the country of the arts and sciences.
"The new Monarch who is to reign over you, has arrested the attention of Europe, on account of his taste for the sciences and the arts; the success with which he cultivated them, as well as for those mild virtues which render men just and Princes beneficent. His accession to the throne is a pledge to you of all the glory which honored Tuscany during the reigns of the Medicis and the Leopolds. His Minister will receive your oath of allegiance. Heaven has already heard his individual promise to make you happy.
"Tuscans, since I have been invested with authority among you, I have aimed at making you enjoy all the comforts of peace. The strictest discipline has prevailed among the troops. Persons and property have been invariably respected. The only burthens you bore were such as the wants of my army rigorously required. The testimony of your attachment has sufficiently remunerated me for my assiduous care. Your king will heal the wounds inflicted by a long war. Grant him all your affection, and, in return you will obtain all his paternal solicitude.
"Tuscans, you will observe that Frenchmen are a people of Friends, who, when among foreigners, respect monarchical principles, as much as they are, when at home, attached to republican institutions.
"J. MURAT."
Extracts from the Glasgow Courier, of the 22d and 25th of August.
LONDON, Aug. 19.
The ships Lady Jane Dundas, Bengal, and Lady Burges, lately arrived from Bengal, have now sent up all their packets to the India House. These contain a voluminous collection of records in every department, the increase of which is prodigious beyond example. The extent of territory over which we have now the dominion and management in Asia, produces various writing and statements applicable to circumstances, the whole of which are transcribed in India, and transmitted to the Court of Directors.
A private letter received by the Lady Burges, lately arrived from Bengal, informs us, that advice had been received at that Presidency, by a Danish ship, of the state of the Spanish settlement of Manila. It appears, that in consequence of some secret intelligence having been received by the Governor from the Isle of France, the strong town of Gavina had been doubly garrisoned; the castle and harbour had re-
ceived several additional pieces of cannon. The Spaniards have also sent a considerable reinforcement to Samboagun, and fortified the place. The confirmation created through all the Philippine islands, on the intelligence of the late expedition from India was very great. The government are said to be much agitated at Manila. Great discontent had prevailed with the militia, who are represented to be in the most wretched state possible. Five frigates are stated to be at Cavita, but in no respect fit for sea. One frigate only has her lower masts in; the others mere hulks. Don Allowas has the direction of all the gun-boats, which amount to no more than nine. The Governor's nephew has the command of the militia. The various goods in warehouses at Manila, are said to amount to 14,000,000 dollars. The gun-boats carry one 32 pounder.
NEW-BEDFORD, October 2. FROM GIBRALTAR.
Capt. Pinkham, from Algeciras, via Gibraltar, which latter place he left 14th August, informs, that the Tripolitan ship and brig mentioned in our late papers as lying at that place, being blockaded in by one of our frigates, and destitute of provisions, have been hauled up, and the crews discharged and sent over to the coast of Barbary. He was informed at Gibraltar, that there were seven Tripolitan armed vessels cruising in the Mediterranean, but heard of no captures.
The ship President, of this port, Andrew Pinkham master, arrived here since our last, from Algeciras, was captured on her voyage out, from New-York to Gibraltar, by the Spanish, and carried into Algeciras, where vessel and cargo were condemned, but the vessel afterwards given up. We formerly mentioned the imprisonment of capt. Pinkham, by the American Consul, and are now furnished with the following statement of that mysterious transaction, contained in an extract of a letter from Capt. Pinkham:
"After being captured by the Spanish privateers, and condemned by the tribunal at Algeciras, and the ship given to me by the owner of the privateers who captured her, and when I was on the point of sailing for America, I was arrested and cast into a wretched prison by PATRICK MULLONY, Vice-Consul of the United States at that place, who fit gun-boats to guard the ship; and after keeping me a prisoner for the space of 77 days, without alledging any thing to my charge, and withholding from me the means of subsistence, which I in vain repeatedly applied for; he then verbally released me, and told me to take my ship and go when I pleased, and where I pleased; and when he was asked the cause of such proceedings, his answer was he had acted by instructions from the United States; but his refusing to shew them, induces me to doubt the truth of his assertion.
"I should no doubt have suffered greatly in prison but for the hospitality of Don Juan Esponosa, interpreter to the royal navy at Algeciras, who furnished me gratis from his own table, with something to subsist on during the term of my imprisonment.
ANDREW PINKHAM."
29—Ship President, Pinkham, from Algeciras, (Spain) via Gibraltar—Speke, Sept. 9, lat. 35, 48, long. 24, 30, sch'r Nancy and Kitty, Thomas Wilkinson, from Philadelphia for Teneriffe—all well.
Capt. Pinkham has furnished us with the following list of American vessels detained at Algeciras by the French and Spaniards, when he left there, Aug. 11: brig Betsey, Blackwell, of and from Baltimore, by the French and Spaniards—brig Amelia, Callendar, of and from Philadelphia, by the French—ship Hercules, Courtney, of and from Newburyport, R. I. by the Spaniards—brig Sophia, Kenny, of and from Philadelphia, by do; brig Maria, Hardy, of and from do, by do. Ship Hibernia, Lake, of and from Boston, released after signing an obligation not to go to Gibraltar. Notwithstanding the French government have taken the commissions from all their privateers, they are as numerous in the Straits as before under Spanish colors.
The President left Gibraltar, 14th August in co. with the ship Louisa, and brig James Steward, of and for Philadelphia.—Left there, ship Pomona, of New-York, and sch'r Jane and Maria of Philadelphia.

BOSTON, October 3. LATE from GIBRALTAR.
A gentleman direct from Gibraltar, who left it some days after captain Paine, arrived at New-York, informs us that the Penelope, which was said to have arrived here from Alexandria, in 31 days, was at Egypt, but from Minorca; and of course, did not bring an article of news. The last vessel from Egypt, was the Spenser sloop of war, lieut. Harrison, which arrived about the 1st August, in 43 days; and consequently could bring nothing contradictory of Mr. Tooke's letter from Constantinople. Thus vanishes an entire column of Chronicle speculation on the Penelope's news.

CATSKILL, September 21.
HORRID MURDER AND SUICIDE.
A gentleman from Hurley, near Kingston, Ulster county, has given us the following narrative of one of the most shocking and tragical catastrophes, which took place yesterday forenoon, that ever blackened the catalogue of human events. The wife of Mr. John Deo, of a place called the Pfaltz, about two miles from Hurley, a woman of exemplary character, as to piety, modesty, and sensibility, rose in the morning and went about the ordinary business of her family, getting breakfast, &c. with all her apparent cheerfulness and composure. After breakfast, she contrived to send out all her family, except three children which she designed for destruction, viz.—a boy about nine years old, a girl about seven (both of whom were children by a former husband, by the name of Zachariah Huffman) an infant daughter about nine months old, which she had since her last marriage. Her husband she had persuaded to go to a cornfield at some distance, to see if there were not creatures in mischief; a daughter of Mr. Deo, by a former wife, a young woman, the sent home with two children, who had slept at her house the night previous, and who belonged to Mr. Deo's sister, living in the neighborhood: a lad, also a son of Mr. Deo, by his first wife, she told to go to the hatter's about a quarter of a mile distant to get a hat, and to take with him a child, between 2 and 3 years old, which, with the infant above mentioned, were the only two she had by Mr. Deo, having thus arranged the family, she told the boy, one of the victims of her delusion, that he might go with some boys who were at play near by, while she combed his sister's head, but not to go out of call, as she would comb his head in a few moments. She then took the girl into a back room which she had darkened for the purpose by letting down the window curtains, and with a razor cut her throat from ear to ear. The boy whom she had told to go to the hatter's, in the mean time instead of going had seated himself on the door steps, with the child, to wait as he says, for his brother's head to be combed, that he might go along with him;—he heard the little girl cry out directly "don't mamma," and the mother rather sternly reply "hold your tongue"—some faint struggles ensued, but not enough to alarm him—the mother then came to the door and called the boy from play and as soon as he entered, took him to the back room and performed the same operation as upon the girl, tho' not quite so effectually—the boy at the door heard enough of this transaction, together with the recollection of his having seen his mother take a razor from behind a looking-glass and place it under an oil-cloth upon a table, to frighten him, and he ran down a lane from the house with the child.
He had not ran far before he heard a noise behind him, and on looking round discovered his brother (who in his struggles
had got away from his mother) with the blood spinning from his throat—he passed him a little and then fell down dead. Another (married) daughter of Mr. Deo, who had also been absent on this fatal morning, happened, with her husband, to arrive at this moment upon the spot; the husband took up the boy, and perceived he was dead and covered with blood, but did not discover that his throat was cut till after hastening to the house, where he was witness to the most shocking spectacle: the mother, her little daughter and child, all with their throats cut and weltering in their blood. A jury of inquest, of which our informant was one, was immediately summoned;—their verdict was, MURDER and SUICIDE, with one instrument, a razor.
What could have been the occasion of this melancholy event is totally unaccountable, unless it proceeded from mistaken religious fanaticism; it is however, evident from a number of circumstances, that the act was coolly premeditated:—The daughter who was sent away with the two children, on the Sunday preceding, expressed a wish to be absent at a neighbouring village for two or three days, observing that she had but little to do at home.—The mother replied, "You will have enough to do on Monday."—The daughter said she did not know of any thing particular. The mother again replied, that it was no matter—she might depend on having enough to do—It is supposed she alluded to the burying of the dead—Another circumstance, more striking, occurred after the close of the melancholy scene—the neighbours on examining a chest for linnen to lay out the deceased, found in it articles exactly necessary for the purpose, parcelled out for each individual, and each parcel laid by itself. Mrs. Deo was devoutly religious, practising prayer every night in her family—yet naturally cheerful and placid—apparently happy and contented in her family—was highly esteemed in the neighbourhood, and had never discovered the least trait of insanity. She was a member of the congregational church, and had partaken of the sacrament but a week or fortnight before.

In consequence of the indisposition of our carrier, we have been obliged to entrust the serving of the papers to a boy, who we are apprehensive is not sufficiently acquainted with the place of residence of all our patrons to serve them regularly—we must, therefore, request such as have been neglected to send to the office for their papers, and will endeavor to prevent their being missed in future.
Recent accounts from New-York, furnish occasion to believe, that the yellow fever in a limited degree, is at present prevailing in that city. Some removals had taken place in consequence. The advanced period of the season, together with the prevalence of northerly and salubrious winds, will, we trust, effectually arrest the progress of this alarming malady.
We yesterday copied from the Aurora an article announcing that the Chevalier de Yrujo had been reinstated in the character of ambassador from the court of Spain. That this procedure may be better understood it is necessary to state, that in consequence of certain offensive conduct on the part of that gentleman towards our government, the late Federal administration applied to the court of Spain for his recall. This application was complied with, and the Chevalier was appointed to some other station. He has however, ne-
ver left this country; and we are not a little surprised to find, that under the auspices of the present republican administration the offences of the chevalier are obliterated, and he accredited in all his ministerial functions, in a manner which is meant to throw reproach and odium upon the agents who procured his recall.

FROM A LONDON PAPER.
The German journals have lately abundanced in accounts of a Siberian Kalmuck, who is now on his journey through the Austrian dominions, on his return to his native abode. This man who has served in the Imperial armies, bears a very slight resemblance to the inhabitants of Europe, in the features of his countenance, in his manners, or his habits. His brow is uncommonly elevated, his eyes are extremely small, and approach very near each other. Though he has visited many different nations, and lived in various countries, he has lost nothing of his attachment to the country where he has received his birth, he maintains there no other country equally distinguished by happiness and good fortune. He talks much of its superiority, derived from the absence of foreigners, and considers the solitude in which its inhabitants live, as the constituent of their felicity. He was wounded last campaign, and no sooner was he recovered, than he determined to set out on his return to a country described by the rest of the world as the residence of misery, but viewed by this savage as the scene of ever blessing dearest to man.
The San Antonio of 74 guns, taken in the action of the 13th, in the Straits of Gibraltar, was given to France 3 years since by the King of Spain, to replace one of the French ships of the fleet of Admiral Bruix; which, in consequence of having run foul of a Spanish ship was lost in the road of Cadiz.
Rear admiral Linois is esteemed one of the best officers in the French service. He was a captain under the old government. He was captured in the Atlanta, of 18 guns, by the Raisonable, capt. Baxter, and after being exchanged was captured a second time on board the Formidable, of 94 guns, in the brilliant action off L'Orient, with the Alexander, of 74 guns, and Tigre, of 84 guns, by Admiral Lord Bridport, in June 1795. As a trait of his honour he went on parole to Paris, to effect an exchange for Sir S. Smith, but Robespierre refused the exchange, and it is said, wanted capt. Linois to break his parole, which he nobly refused, and returned to Tavi-stock again as a prisoner of war, till regularly exchanged.

There is no place, where an instance of simplicity appears with less propriety, than in the pulpit. A priest at Tivoli was declaiming, in his sermon, against adultery. "I would rather," says the indignant preacher, be connected with ten virgins, than one married woman."
