Lately departed this life at tho seat
ofsPhilip Duval, Esq. in Buckingham,
in the 18th year of his age, and uni
versally lamcnted, Mr.. ALEXAN-
DER POPE, third son OF Nathaniel
Pope, Esq. of Hanover, most amia-
BILE and accomplished young gentle
man. The ardent friendship and yea
lous attachment manifested for him
by his numerous acquaintance affords
sufficient evidence of his generous,
benevolent and philanthropic disposi-
ton. He possessed severy of judg-
ment and luxuriancy of imagination
seldom united in the same person.
He was we'll versed in the classics, had
commenced the study oflaw and his
tory, upon the completion of which he
proposed to establish himself in Loui-
sana under the patronage of Govern
or Lewis. But his premature death
has terminated his views in this world
and inflicted upon the hearts of his
disconsolate parents wounds that the
hand of time can never cure.
Mr.. A. Pope has left behind him in
manuscript, several literary product
ons on various subjects among others,
a translation, or rather paraph,ase of
the Otiun D;vos, of Horace, an ora
ton commemorative of the revolutio-
nary ervices and republican virtues
of the late P. Henry, Gen. Thomas
Nelson and Gen. Hugh Mercer and
an Eulogium npon the administration
of Thomas Jefferson, which for cor
rect sentiment, classical purity, and
sublime imagery, would not suffer
very much in a comparison with the
most celebrated productions of the or
ators of Greece and Rome. Before
his indisposition, he delivered religi-
Gus lectures in strains so eloquent and
pathetic, that whole audiences would
be melted into tears. He promised
to be an ornament to his country and
a shining light to the church, to which
he had attached himself; but,
"The ways Of Heaven are dark and intricate,
Puzzled in Mazes, perplex'd with errors ;
Our understanding traces them in vain,
Lost and bewiider'd in the fruitIess search,
Nor sees with how much art the windngs
run,
Nor where the regular confusion ends -

The intelligence brought by the barque
Richard, capt. Odiorne, which arrived at

from Liverpool and % from the land, &C :
casioned nosmall degree of hustle and per

nouncing to Capt. y. that an express had
Just arrived in Liverpool from London with
the news of Bonaharfe haUing declared

Captain Odiorne further states, that he

which vessel Mr.. Pinkney had deemed it
expedient to detain for few days, TO car.

ington and are said by Capt. o. % be of
such importance that Mr. Pinkney had or
der-d the American Consul TO charter a
vessel immediately, if none we're lying in
port ready to sail.
Such is the amount Of the verbal intelli-
sence which has come to our knowledge.
Our readers will give it what degree of
credit they may think it entitled TO.
We tread upon surer ground, perhaps,
when we alude 20 the extracts we have
made from Liverpool papers of the 18th Of
September, and London papers of the 18th,
which have been received at the Office of
the Mercantile Advertiser by this convey
ance. Prom these we have copied the of
