MEMORANDA.
Brig Cornelia. Pierce, cleared at Bos.
ton 9th instant, tor this port.
Portland gazette and Maine advertiser., 1817-12-30

Lei Us find out the unknown God At Athens,
and stretching out our hands 10 heaven, offer
him praises that we are worthy 10 live under
50 great an empire"
Hence we perceive, that Christians and
their principles were, in old times, udicuied
hy their advesaries, and that II is no new
method a attacking christianity, as some have
supposed. We also learn, that the writer of
the above sarcasm, was well acquainted with
many of the books of both the old and new
testaments. We likewise see, how poorly
some men reasoned, who opposed christiani-
~, and vet remained heathens. They ridi-
culed the most just and reasonable doctrines /;
such as the creation OF the world-a divine
providence. or observance OF the actions of
men in order 10 future retributon, and 9th
er doctrines Of the sacred scriptures. Whilst
they rejected the Christian revelation, they
also attempted 20 weaken those principles of
religion, which reason alone, would, itprop-
erly improved, have taught them with great
degree oil certainly.
In this dialogue, are plain references TO the
creation of the world-the christian baptism
the Lords Prayer--the gift OF tongues-the
book of lfe-lhe doctrine of the trinity and
other important parts Of the bible. cannot
help repeating, how wonderful are the ways
of providence,in the preservation OF those ear
ly writings against christianity ! SO that after
the lapse Of many centuries, they should be-
come important testimonies in its favour.

Sca,,dalons Outrnge.-We are informed that on
the evening Of the 18th inst. whilst son OF MIR.
JAMES MosIER, of Gorham, was returning home
from this town with an empty team, on arriving
within mile and an half OF Saccarappa village,
was suddenly alarmed by the discharge of pistol /;
aud imagining he had fell something strike his hat,
Immediately jumped off his cart, and upon examn-
ing il found the crown of it had been perfora-
ted BY bali within one two inches of his head.
Having thus narrowly escaped with his life, he feels
il duty 10 caution others who pass that road in
the evening 10 beware Of a repetition of such a
diabolcal outrage.
Since writing the above, we learn, that on Fri
day evening last not far from the same place. the
same lad Vas robbed of three chains, pair oil
saddle bags and several other articles from his cart
whilst his team was stopping to help Vermont
team out of a gutter On hearing person climb
ing over the fence, and missing bis chains, the lad
pursued and overlook person creeping up the
bank on which he called two persons TO his assist
ance, who recognized him. We hope such further
enquiry will be made as will lead to the conviction
and punishment of the perpetrator of this bastard
ly transaction. The chains and some of the other
articles were found hid away near the team.
