TUESDAY, November II, 1917.

As formerly we continue To receive accounts
from almost every part OF the globe bat they are
not as formerly filled" with news from all rations
numbering at their backs So much are the con-
ductors of foreign journals pressed for matter.
since the happy era of peace and good will, that
they seize every traing incident that trsnspires
to supply the place of those "weightier matters''
with which they were formerly filed AS extracts
from them, therefore, have little other merit than
what they derive from the consideration of their
beng Of foreign manufacture, but few of them have
oeen transp'anted INTO our columns; and an OPP
Portunlty Is thus afforded of attending to subjects
more immediately connected with the welfare and
happiness OF our patrons. We believe this course
will meet the appreciation of all and afford an an
swer 10 the enquiry why we do not publish more
foreign nelcs.

PARIS, SEPT. 23.--Mrs, FITzHERB
ERr, known TO all Europe for her EFT
mable qualities, has arrived here, and
propofes TO flop fome weeks. In her
youth this lady was married TO the Brit
ilh Prince Of w aIes, and was much be-
loved by him bur the Parliament dc
clared the marriage illegal and he was
compelled 10 marry Princeis of Prullia,
now Princefs of Wales. but frparated

an arrival from ST. Sebaftians that re-
port prevailed of declaration of War
between Spain and Portugal, in COME
quence of difpute relative to ponef1ions
which each nation claimed in South A
merica This report, though probably
unfounded as to the refult, is perhaps
true so far as it indicates an exiting diff
hculiy between the two courts in regard
to the territory in queition. The laft

that the Portuguese had determined to
withdraw their troops from Rio de Ia

Cen. Scott, is President Of the Court
Martial, ordered 10 assemble at West Point
10 investigate the late disturbance al thar

The following little Narrative savours so
strongly of,he romantic, that we should
hesitate in believing it, had We not been
told il by gentleman who Witnessed part
Of the transaction.
A person who had made 2 considerable
fortune in Philadelphia, as butcher, went
on board one of the last ships from Am
sterdan, which had number OF German
Redemptioners, for the purpose Of purcha-
sing one TO assist him in his business. At
ter examining the physiognomy OF several
Of the passengers, without being able to
please himself, bis attention was arrested
by the tranquil and composed countenance
Of man, rather advanced in years, but
with much appearance of strength and &C
tiyity. Not less pleased with the converse
ton Of the German, than with bis exterior,
he described the purpose for which ne wan
ted servant, and Obtained the mans con-
sent 10 purchase his indentures, provided
he would also purchase those OF his wife.
who had accompanied him. The parties
then went ashore to complete the business
attended by the captain; and upon the
names of the persons being mentioned, 10
insert them in The writings, they were the
same with those of the purchasers father
and mother and, upon further inquiry, he
ascertained them to be in fact, his father
and mother the latter declaring, that if
he was their son, he he'd remarkable mole
upon his left arm-which proved to be the
case 1t is added, that nothing could SUR
pass the Joy Of all parties. The providence
of God had snatched the venerable pair
from poverty and seryitude, and conducted
them TO plenty and independence, under
the protection of All afectionste son. He,
it seems, had ran away from his parents
when quite boy and from the continued
wars in Europe, neither had ever heard Of
the other since.

" The federalsts feel" SAYS the Argus.
! that their party is disgraced in the eyes OF
the world" Now we contend, that The re-
verse IS the case, and that the need and the
tribute of praise has been awarded them bv
their opponents. Actions often speak loud
er than words" That superiority Of wisdom
must be glaring and unquestionable. which
could call forth an acknowledgement of il from
a bitter and inveterate adversary. Such an
acknowledgement the democratick party has
az last made. During the administrations OF
Washington and Adams, this party made the
most vigorous and resolute opposition 10 a
navy, national bank, bankrupt law, &c.
&c. and grounded and justified this oppo-
sltion, on The pretended impolicy of those
measures. Well, they at last obtained the
reins government. the resources of the coun.
Try were at thair disposal and the policy they
recommended fully and perfectly developed.
Inc national bank was deprived offs charter,
Inc bankrupt law repealed, instead OF trigates
and seventy fonrs a number OF wretched and
paltry gun boots were built and equipped. All
this was done with the decided disapprnbas
ton and opposition Of, and the result of all
these measures turned out exactly As was pre-
dicted by, The federal party. Having wines
sed their effects, having been taught by expe.
renee their ruinous and impolitick ndency.
driven BY necessity, the reigning party fairly
lacked about, reversed all their former pro-
ceednss, and adopted the very measures they
nao once opposed with such vehemence and
ranoour the very measures, for patronizing
ana supporting which, Calender, Duane, and
osnef foreigners, were employed to libel
washington and Adams, Hamilton and Ames,
n.y. even The very patrons Of Calender and
MS associated gang Of scribblers, have made
an explicit acknowledgement of their own
,n short-sightedness, and impolcy.

cess'ons CT their opponents Let US reverse
