The letters from Paris received by the
last mail, concur in representing war with
Spain, as being very generally sniicipa-
ted On Monday night intelligence was
said to have reached Paris, from Madrid,
strongly corroboraling that sentiment,
The intelligence OF Portuguese army

important difference, that instead ct being
directed against Spain, it is deslIned 10

that kingdom. The movement OF troops
in various parts Of France, towards the ~
renees, is confirmed; and Marshal Sucbet
is already announced as having the su-
pTeme command.
Notwithstanding these hostile demon
STATIONS, we cannot yet believe that
France critically situated as she evidently
is, can have any adequate motive Tor mac
ly involving herself in hostility.
The accounts from Sores, OF the 18Th
Nav. give terrible picture Of the cruel
ties committed by the Turks ofAgosto a
bove 5000 children have been carried OFT
from that place and the neighborhood, to
be brought up in the Mshomedan religion.
The accounts from Sores say also that the
Pacha was uniting his forces at Verea, in
order 10 re-estabiish his communications
with Chourlschid Pacha, and to act in
common against the Peloponnessus, which
will be the less difficult as LarisSa is still
in the possession OF the Turks. The Greeks

COLONEL MONROE.

The following anecdote of this distinguished
Patriot and statesman, is related in note to
an Grafton, delivered at the request of the
Franklin Dialetc Society, of Georgetown, on
the 4th of July, 1921. by Mr.. Willrasn NJ.
Steuart.'
&c is afact known but to few, that short
time previous to the attack ofthe British upon
New Orleans, when every exertion was ma
kingto provide the brayetroops called It's de
fence, with the necessary munitions and provi.
sIons bills on the Government, by the western
contractors, for near D.2O0, 900, were protest
I'd.
The Cashier Of the Bank of ----, called
upon Mr. Monroe, then Secretary of War, and
advised him ofthe necessity of immediately re-
farming them. The secretary entreated, that
they might be detained a few days, as the evil
2ence of their non payment would be produ c.
i;re oithe mostruiaous consequences; but the
cashier was MEMORABLE, as in the event OF dIsap-
peintment, nc would be ruined, and his bank
would be made answcrablc. Most men woulJ
have ceased here; and believed they had Off
ciaHy done their duty. Not SO Mr.. Monroe
with tears in his eyes, to use the words of the
cashier) ne beseeched him, in the name OF his
country, to retain the bills few days: and he
pledged his honor, his personal credit and his
property as James 1ioRyoe that the bills should
I've paid.-The pledge was accepted, and the
western hanks Immediately advised TO charge
the Bank of -, with the amount What
the cashier would not DO for the Secretary Of
Var, he did forJdmes Jlonroe! for he felt con-
fident there was no danger in trusting to the
word Of an honest man.
The pledge was duly redeemed, and by this
act ofpublic virtue, the credit of government
was reinstated,-the exertions of the contrac,
tors were redoubled; and the brave freemen of
the West. being provided with munitions of
War, were enabled to reach Ncw-Orleans in
time to repel the bloody invaders Of their coun-
try, and gam for themselves an immortality of
