the insults oftriumphant enemies, robbed
OF their capital, feeoed of their money

FROM EUROPE.

Our accounts from England extend to
the 0th of August. The 1st article, which
seiZes our attention, is the destihy of that
extraordinary man, whose name has Fl led
the world. He now feels ho7v Just the com
phment is, which ne uttered in his letter 70
the Prince Regent of England,
6 THE most generous Of my enemies"
The suspense is now over, and Bona
pa rte is again to be banished to an Isle :;
not, as he was before, on the verge of civil
lied life, but to distant spot in the seas
spot near 10 degrees South of the Line,
and not less than 1900 miles from anv con
tinent. lfh- really had hoped to be trea-
ted like Themist ocles, vain were those
hopes, and bitteris his disappointment tt
Athenian really met with generous enc
my. "Make use, said he, of the opportu-
nifty my misfortunes afford YOU, rather to
show your generosity, than to satisfy your
revenge. Ifyou save me, you save your
supphcaut it you destroy me, you destroy
the enemy OF Greece" The appeal was
uccessfui--Artaxsrxe treated him with
the munifcence paid to Prince, and The
mistocles is said to have been so much
pleased as to have exclaimed, " Children,
we should have been uudone, had it not
been for our undoing" lie was not stript
Of his friends, nor OF his money, nor doom
ed to a life of obscure retirement, but he
was appointed the Governor Of Province
of Persia. The city of Magnesia was made
over to him TO find him bread Lampsacus,
wine and Myus, meat.
And is this the last that we are to see Of
Bonaparte is the curtain to drop thus,
upon the most wonderful man Of Tn e
world Is he, whose ambition was spacious
enough to cover all Europe, TO be cooDed
up for ever in sequestered island Is he,
at whose name all the legitimate princes

II was some time ago intimatcd to Us,
that our stern brethren, irritated by the
stagnation of business which their scliishness
and fol- had brought upon them. and envi-
rous OF che prosperous trade of Newly York,
meditated a serious blow upon us, by innu-
merable prosecutions against Our banks,
for their refusal to redeem their bills with
specie. Surely" said one Of our first
merchants, to whom we suggested this in
ttention, 50 we have no legal character "a
moDg us, who is SO poor or so sordid as to
lend his aid 10 this scheme, and to jeopar-
ldize the interests of almost every class of
his fellow citizens for the paltry considera-
ton of a few dollars cost" The gentleman,
it we do not mistake, will soon see his en-
ror.
There is too much reason to believe, that
the plan we have suggested is about to- be
carried into operation. Although ostensi-
bly, aimed at orr banks, it is calcu-
lated and no doubt intended, to cripple our
trade, and embarrass every branch Of ac-
tive business. Its effects will be felt By ev-
cry person connected either directly or in
directly with banking operations and will
be much more severe upon the creditors,
than the stockholders of the banks. 1t
viii compel them to stop dscounting, and
60 call in the immense debt due them,
which is II ow employed in active business.
We have no doubt but the legislature
would eventually interpose their authority
to stay the evil--but as the subject is of
the deepest interest to the community, we
shall indulge hereafter in further remarks
upon it--with a view to develope its object
aud its ccnsequences--ifan ADLER pen does
not relieve Us from the task.

Concentration Of IFdtcrioo.
Wednesday evening last Mr.. Baker. the
British charge DIES atfaires, gave an elegant
ball at Bath, in Bucks County, to the ladies
and gentlemen of Philadelphia, Bristol and
Burlington.
The assembly was fashionable, numerous
and gay, which in conjunction with the
splendid decorations ofthe ball room. court
yard and supper room, converted the scene
from the dullness OF reality into the most
fascinating attractions OF IDEAL conception.
The dancing and supper rooms we're deco
rated with wrsaths Of laurel, variou sly en-
twined and the innumerable lights were
aptfully disposed 90 she'd iustre and bTillian-
cy on the surrounding objects. An avenue
was formed of the long piazza OF the Hotel,
leading to the ball room, festooned by the
luxur;ant drapery of nature, and lighted by
lamps suspended from the tops and sides,
emitting a various hue through the gar
lands of laurel. Over the entrance Of the
supper room was conspicuous by its sup.-
rior effulgency in large letters La Belle
Al,iancc'-It is impossible to conceive the
inexpressible beauty of the whole scene by
those who had lot the qualification of wit
Messing tor fancy the exEberlnt manifes-
tstion of universal delight that peiyaded
the company. The honour OF the presence
of the Swedish minister and family, the
Chevalier de Ons and suite, and our gal!
lant townsman, Captain Biddle, added
much to tie pleasure of the occasion.---
The whole was conducted with elegance
and propricty, worthy of tic hon0ura-
artificers engaged in tine preparations.
