FitANKrofve FAin.--The late fair in this
City (says a Letter, dated the•lst of September) was decidedly
one of the best for many years. In point of fact, it may be
assumed as a eonimercial axiom that the business of a fair is
generally prosperous when the state so far interposes as to enact
dat calculated to promote the interests of both
rbeugyterainotllls eselTeirai.ly
And this encouraging state of things applies
to the town of Frankfort-on-the-Maine, in a very especial
Manner.' In the first place, with respect to English matnifac-
aired goods, there was a very great supply of all detteripticms;
and the demand being brisk sales to:the-extent ofseveral scores
of thousands were beneficially realized. There was also a con.
sitkruble eapatE on the part of tierman.manufacturerS,
ef course, the fabrics of' our immediate neighbourhood.—
lite Life that seems recently to have intlised itself so generally
into commerce was vividly felt by the continental roanufer-
cle whose goods have at length attained-to a very high state
ofiripre'rfection: The articles made of silk and demy-silk, as is
often tisttez of pr
case, experienced a very lively demand. The black
—abet and Berlin were in particular request,
and Hence, one would say, this seems •to
bee branch a

Do not the believers in all other religions hold

with equal fidelity ? SAtOLLETT4 in his novel of

so m9ch impregnated with'avarice, as to render
his benevolence inconsistent with the primary
impulse of his nature. But SitAmsccAnE com.
mitred the crime against the general body, and
he should have 'produced an ,opposite character
by way of atonement. Our great Dramatic Bard

Skyisock was a Jew ! It isloipossible to•palliate
the revenge of Skylock, but it should be' consi,
dered that, in addition to all these wrongs, his
daughter had been .seduced away by a Christian.
It was the more reprehensible in 4140W° to offer
these unprovoked injuries and insults, as he is de-
scribed as a grave reflecting'cbaracter. Under
such an accumulation of insults, injuries, W.-
ferings, and misfOrtunes, how can we be sure that
many a Christian would not be found-equally disc
posed to gratify revenge? 'lt may be thought
singularly, absurd to introduce a fictitious person
on this occasion ; but 'as Shylock has been too
often conceived to be identified with the JEWISII
CHARACTER, under the sanction of that great
master of -life, SHAKSPEARE, this injurious.
opprobrium should be opposed by every prin.,
ciple of reason, justice, and humanity.

THE ASHANTEN.

(From the trampsleire. Telegrqp4.)

. On Wednesday his Majesty's ship Thetis, 46,
Captain Sir Jolts.; Pm Leixoes:, returned front Cape'Coast
.Castle, whither she proceeded in May last, with a detachment
of the Royal African corps, and supplies for that garrison.—
She arrived at Cape Coast on the 4th July, at a very critical
period, when such an accession of European troops.wat of the.
greatest importance, a numerous army of Asl tantees, command.
ed by his sable Majesty in person, have just encamped close to
the town, with an avowed purpose of making an attack on the
Castle. Skirmishes took place every day afterward, between the
Ashantees and outposts of our allied force, until 11th of July,
when the Ashantees made a general attack on our position,
about three-quarters of a mile from the shore. The engagement
lasted, without intermission, until dark, and terminated, with
their total defeat. Their loss is computed at about '4OOO men,
anti the British and Allies, about 103 killed, and 4450 wounded.,
Their defeat was so decisive, that their whole force aispeared
ton.be disorganised.; they broke up the following day from their'
advanced positions, and commenced a disorderly tropic to
Coornaesie. The King appeared to basic been so confident and
determined of success, that, in his approaches towards our co..
lony, he laid the whole country waste through which he passed,
in order to deter his people from retreating or deserting risen
him ; rind the consequence was, they all became in a state of
starvation, and were seized of numerous diseases, which, with
the small-pox, were making the greatest ravages amongst
them. During these important operations to our settlements
and commercial interests in that quarter, the enemy being
of superior numbers, end our allied force composes, of
g anized rabble), it became necessary that the few ships lying
various native- tribes (some of them little better than an or..
at Cape Coast, namely, the Thetis, Swinger, anti Woodbridge.
merchant-ship, should render the most effective co.,operatien,
and with all imaginable celerity. Accordingly, Sir John
PlliTli-
more.anchored the Thetis to the Westward, and the Swinger
gun-brig to the Eastward, within graperange of the beach, so 41
tacommand the approaches on each sides of the Castle; and he
landed Lieut. Drew (First Lieutenant of the Thetis) Liessee,
Tucker, R.N. and Alexander, R. 31., MeSsrs. Revesell,
O'Brien, Campbell, Littledale, and French, Midshipmen, Mr.
Stewart, Assist.-Surgeon, several whet officers rind about 130
seamen and marines, to defend the Castle ;Inlet ,the troops
marched out to meet the enemy. The gunner and carpenter, with
their crews, were landed to lay a platform on Phipp Tower on
which guns were afterwards mounted, and chit; important possi-
t ion was entrusted to Ale. Rowsell, Master's Mate, having under
hint Mr. Littletiale, and eight seamen. The bows of the The-
tis, Swinger, anti Woodbridge, were also armed, with each a
brass fiehLpiece, and put under the command of Lieutenants
Cotesworth, Teed, and Smithers, It. N. and sent, act along
the beach, or itiith the Castle, as circumstances May isuittire.-:.
The Mate and fifteen men of the Woodbridge also volun,
teered to serve in the Castle. These several harassing and fa-
tiguing services called forth the exertions of t individual
engaged in them, and they were performed with that zeal and
sound judgment, discretion and regard to good disciptine, which
render all our naval cn-operations an effective, and whipli so pro
perly, auth occasions, become the theme of commendation of
all who witness them. The whole of these officers and men 'yew
re-embarked on board their respective ships on the I,fitit without

FRENCH PAPERS.

.CPI om the Courier Pranaris of Friday.)

PARIS, OCT. 1.--lionour to -the Prince who
has understood the wishes of his people; and who
has 'signalized 'the beginning of his power by the
vire-establishment of the most important of the'
-public liberties. His name is now repeated
amidst the benedictions ,of his subjects of all
-classes, except, 'perhaps, the.censors ; but their
murmurs will only .give fresh vigour to public
joy. To give our readers an idea of the manner
in which.the Censorship was exercised, we will
insert an article that was-erased from the Courier
Francais on Sept. 23d..—" The entrance of. the
Dauphin into the Council has been the subjectof
the remarks of several Journals.; in fact, the '
-Measure deserves to be noticed, and it can only
cause in all minds a sentiment of. satisfaction and
-of hope. After the last expedition to• Spain, when
the Duke .of ,Angouleme, who had she wn so much
-wisdom, returned to France and displayed -so
much love for the institutions which the King
had given 'us, it was pnerally expected that the
temporary command confided to him would be
followed by some participation in the affairs of
Government, and that sthe Ministry would pre-
serve to this Priuce 'the influence which his noble
and generous conduct• had acqUired for him,
either by giving hint,' as the Duke of York pus-
seises in 'England., the direction of the military
part of the Government, or by some other means '
that,would no longer leave him out of the sphere
of.activity in the GOvernment. The genera! ex-
pectation was at that time deceived.; thus the
• decision which now brings him into the Council
repairs the.omission which was then noticed with
surprise. It is an act of justice And .of
and France can
.only. see with hope and joy. the
influence of a Prince, who in Spain opposed un-
bridled 'passions by the' immortal Decree of An-
dujar, and-who in :France pronounced the me-
morablewords union and forgetfulness, and who.
never ceased to recommend to the Magistrates as.
their first duty, 4c to, 10ve..410 Institutions which
the King has given us." We have reason to be-;
sieve that this' homage of a Journal, which has
resisted the' seductions of bribery and the,severi-
ties of the Court, will have a different value in
the eyes .of the Prince than the interested de-
clamations of the Ministerial Pipers."
The 21ftmorial BoOelais pretends to be in possession of impor-
tant and extensive news front Spain.. It promises to make them,
known to-morrow.• In the mean time it says that a Russian aqua.
drop has arrived at the island of Majorca, having on board 25,000
troops. It is difficult to believOhis news. Such a formidable
expedition could not have been kept so secret, that-the English
Journals would not have known of st, and sounded the alarm.
The Memorial Borilelais4. to give some plausibility to the story,
however,. adds, that an officer of this squadron has landed.at
A licant, and proceeded 'immediately to Madrid. The next
courier will no doubt make us acquainted with what there is
false, or at least exaggered, in the report of a Russian 'fleet and
army an the coast of Spain. Letters from Madrid of Sept. 2:.!,
do not mention the circumstance. •

( Front the'Journal des Ih►lnriel

' MAD RTD, SEPT. 20.—(Privitte Correspondence.)—The news
of the death of Louis XVIII. has been circulated here since
four o'clock in the afternoon It bag •produced a sensation of
sorrow difficult to describe, among the' moderate' men of all
parties, who see in the death 01141110 st Christian Majesty, the
lots of a most powerful protector, from whom they hoped all
things for the re-establishment of order in Spain."
The'Sub-intendant of Police has addressed to his Department
ik Circular, of which the following is the substance :—"' In the
Police there is great activity and zeal ; already the sword is'
sUspended over the head of those who have the audacity.•to
think in wdifrerent manner. If hitherto those who have hoped
for the repentante of the enemies of God and the 'King; have
been heard, do they now merit the, same indulgence ? 'All of
them have not acted like those at Troika, Almeria, Markella,
and Zirnena, but Official dispatches and private letters from air
the provinces prove that there is not one of them who does not
declare in favour of the Code de Makdietio4 callk with,
sicrilegious audaCity the Sacred Code, who in his countenance,
his actions, and all his attituden, has not clearly demonstrated
that he shares the same sentiments, the same ideas, and that he
had the same desire as these traitors ; and in how many placed
have they not been surprised at the very moment when they
were about to put their Infamous pbtns•into execution. No, ft
is not possible at present to entertain any other opinion. 'Their
treason and apostacy are incorrigible, it is only by their entire
extermination that public tranquillity can be restored, but how
difficult is this enterprise I Concealed in their Masonic Lodges
—fortified in their fortresses—secret in 'their hiding places,:whe
can combat with them ?"

( From the Constitutilmoel rf Friday,)

.The presentiments which we yesterday expressed relative to
the • Freedom of the Press were not slow in being realised.—
The ALmiteur contains to-day an Ordonnance of the King,
which suppresses the Censorship of. the Newspapers. This
measure,. confidently expected, is the natural consequence of
the important speech which his Majesty delivered on the I7th
of September, in reply to the Peers of France and the Deputies.
.It is necessary to remark, that this Censorship was exer-
cised by a Secret Tribunal, the Members of which took every
imaginable precaution to conceal their names from public cu.
rieslty, and above all from the journals on which the censure
was laid. They doubtless remembered the sneering man-
ner in which a Minister rejected the extravagant zeal of the
subalterns in • their .manoeuvres at the last election—ma-
notuvres which the Viscount Chateaubriand rebuked and
condemned with so much earnestness. and eloquence. The in-
ferior agents who exercised the censorship were unwilling to

to be seen nor spoken with, nor could any one ever learn by I
what system the censorship was carried into effect. Concealed.in
darkness they mutilated at pleasure the most innocuous co-
lumns of our Journals. When the interpreter of this censorial
inquisition was remonntrated with, he-replied, " Such is the
supreme pleasure of the Committee; -who neitter rtceives nor
gives explanations. It is you acho mustenriddle the enigma."
This riddle was iof such a natitre that CEdipus himself would,
have been at fault; of which we may form an idea by the 'fol-
lowing facts :—The first operation of the Censorship was to pre-
vent the simple announcement of the pamphlet of M. Cha-
teaubriand, of which none could complain but the Minister.
We concluded from this rejection that the Ministers might only
be mentioned by the voice of praise. "It is very natural,"
said we; " for what would the Censorship be good for, if it did
not protect the men that had established, and who paid the
Censors? It is a decided point that we shall not speak of our
masters, the Ministers; we shall leave their Excellencies to
inhale at leisure the incense of those Journals that are in their
pay ; but perhaps we shall be allowed to pay to our Princes
the just homage of our acknOwledgments for their affecting
solicitude towards the unfortunate."

We had received the invitation to publish the following no.
tice; it was addressed to us from the very cabinet of S. A. R.
the Duke d'Angouleme, now Monseigneur the Dauphin

" The Members of the Royal Society of Prisons are invited
to assemble on Thursday, the 19th of this month, at one
o'clock, at the sitting of the Royal Society of Prisons, pre.
sided over by his Royal Highness to meet at his Palace."

We had added to this notice the following paragraph :
" May all the abuses which have so unhappily taken root in the
the management of the prisons, and which have so long excited
concern of all the true friends of religion and humanity, be made
public by the Prince ! May the Administration, obedient to his
vpice, reform the abuses, afflictingto everyfeeling heart ! May
it purify the infectious mixture, in which so many unfortunates
are confounded! And what we above all desire is, that the
interesting work published by M. Appert may come under the
observation of the Prince, and that nothing may be concealed
from him, which is of a nature to throw light on a subject which
is so worthy of his attention and humanity."
In perusing again these lines, we still ask ourselves what
could excite the anger of the censors ? what ideas, what senti- '
ment can explain, not justify, the rare insolence whh
which they brought within their sheers not only our reflec-
tions but the qouce we received from so high a quarter?
What can they allege in their justification ? Prayers in favour
of suffering humanity—confidence inspired by the virtues of an
august Prince—could these in any way wound .religion, mora-
lity, or even the interest of the Ministers ? It is downright mad-
ness, but the madness of pride and malignity, This second
refusal redoubled our perplexity as to the secret intentions of
the censorship.
At the same time the paid journals reproached us with pre-
serving silence on the death of the King ; and the Censorship
which authorised-these reproaches, or rather these falsehoods,
prevented us from replying. It was difficult to carry much
further their contempt for any thing like common decency or
like justice. The secret of the doctrines of the Censorship was
less impenetrable than its policy. The first revelation was made
to us by the rejection of an announcement of a work by our•ce-
lebrated advocate, ht. Dupin, entitled " On the Liberties of the
French Church:" This was a luminous tract, and this was an
instance of the pure Jesuitical feeling of the Censorship. Here,
every thing was explained o we• conceived why the Catholic
Memorial had been permitted to preach the revolutionary
doctrines of La Ligne ; to affirth that before his conversion,
Henry. IV. was not the legitimate King of France; that any
Monarch might justly be deposed, whom the Pope had de-
clared to be.a heretic; we then perceived why we had been ,
forbidden to combat these infernal doctrines which have co-
vered. France .with blood, and cost the life of two Kings and
to oppose to them the opinions of the great Bossuet and all the
clergy of France.

VIENNA, SEPT. An'strian Observer of this date
has an article from Constantinople, dated 26th Atigust, to the
following effect :
" No authentic news has yet been received in this capital of
the expedition of the Captain Pacha, against SamoS, though
he was to arrive in the vicinity of that island between the
Mb and 20th of August. Besides, if he has effected a
ladding, the fate of so large an island cannot be decided in
a few days. We shall probably receive the first news from
Smyrna.
" The Egyptian fleet was off Rhodes on the 11th and 12th of
August. The Captain of a French ship of war went on board
the Admiral's ship, and remained several hours with Ibrahim
Pacha, who was very, curious to see the French crew ma-
noeuvre, which was done to please him. According to the re-
port of this Captain, the Egyptian fleet consisted of nine fri-
gates, 14 three-masted corvettes, forty brigs and schooners,
and 240 transports.
" It was not yet possible to state with certainty whether this
expedition ,was to proceed immediately to the Illorea, or to some
other point in the Archiepela?o. •
" The silence which the Turkish Government continues to
observe relative to the motions of the armies by land is not a
good omen. Notwithstanding its positive orders, Omer and
Dervisch Pacha. have not yet effected their junction. The first
is with 6or 8,000 men near Arta. His intentions and his sen.
timents are very problematical.—(Letters trim illissolonghi
say that Omer is marching towards Baltos.—Note of Austriau
Observer.)
[Here follow some accounts of the operations by land, which
have been before published:l
." The Porte seems to place its greatest hopes on the Egyp-
tian fleet and army. Though large sums have been taken
from the imperial treasury, the land troops have received little
or nothing.
" The reports that have been in circulation at Constantinople
for this week past indicate great changes—all conjectures are
founded on the following facts :•••••
The Dgebidgi Baschi, general of the workmen employed
in the manufactory of arms, being dissatisfied with one of his
officers, forgot himself so far as to beat him with a stick in
public place. The workmen, incensed at this violence, as.
ambled, andsent a deputation to the Porte to demand the re.
moval of their chief. Their fury was augmented by .a refusal.
The Aga of the Janissaries then went to the barracks of the
.I)..ebidgi, near the race course ; but admittance was ,reftised
ht7u, and it was feared the Janissaries would lake part in the
insurrection.

" But all at once it was announced, that the Sultan consent-
ed to the removal of the Dgebid4ri Boselii, and to the great
astonishment of the public, that the Aga of the Janissaries was
also dismissed, The latter being succeeded by Koul Kiaga,
tranquillity was soon restored in the two corps, and has not
since been disturbed. Another circumstance which has caused
many rumours and conjectures is, as is supposed, the approach-1
ing appearance in public of the Sultan's eldest son, who has
hitherto been educated In the interior of the Seraglio. The
young Prince having reached his twelfth year, will soon be able
to accompany his father to the Mosque, and other public places.
A powerfulparty labours to accelerate the time of his emend-
tuition. 'lt cannot be yet exactly known, what is the personal
opinion of the Sultan on this subject.
Rem, I.—The emislitutionnel publishes to day after
the Memorial Bordelais, the news of a pretended Russian
squadron arrived at the Island of Majorca with 25,000 men.
The just doubts which it expresses with regard to this state-
Ment, and the reflections with which it accompanies them,
would perhaps suffice to refute it ; however, for the greater
certainly, we will say that this news has nojimodation the•
only Russian vessel that has been seen in those seas, and which
can be there at this moment, is a ship that sailed from Cron-
stadt, and arrived directly at Brest, whither it seems to have
come to collect some information on subjects relative to the
Marine. It was received with everrattention, and the Mari-
time Administration of Brest furnished all the plans and charts
it could desire. This is truth ; we do not think it necessary to
diScuss farther the other circumstances of the fableof the jour-
nalist, which seems wholly improbable to the journal that re-
lates it.
