Extract Of a letter from Smyrna, dated Sept. 90.
"We have news here from the Morea, that the
Greeks have the upper hand of the Turks, and com
pletely destroyed their army of $4,000 men near
Corinth. Equal success has attended the Persians,
who are actually near Ezerum, after defeating the
Turkish troops $4,000 in number. Such events
cannot but proong the termination of existing evils
There is report current here, that the capt.
Pacha of the Turksh fleet (then in the Guph OF
Patras) had seized an Ionian vessel, which was TAX

being made known to captain Hope, OF the Rhine

with harshness; and at last her mistress threatened
that she would take her children from her and sell
them to the Doors in the interior. The dread oil

could be inflicted her offspring, so worked upon
her mind that to them from this fate, she took
them, four in NUMBER down to the sea, early in the

of them, and was in the act of destroying herself
and the remaining child when she was discoveries;
and the alarm being given, she was rescued from
her watery grave in state If insensbility. She was
carried to the Jail, where m dlcines were applied to-
restore her, and court OF criminal justice was i'm

THE Na1Y

We regret exceedingly to see a course OF
conduct pursued by the Navy Department and
by distinguished naval officers, which is calcu-
lated to bring them into contempt, and the ma
Wy into disrepute.
We published, last week, something on the
subject of Capt. Hull's administration at the
Navy-yard in Charlestown and our readers
are ,ware of the excitement which has been
produced by the manner in which tta subject
has been noticed in the National Intelligencer.
The feeling which has been excited is not
likely to be allayed by more recent occurrence.
es. 1t seems Capt. Porter, one Of the Navy
Commissioners, has attempted to muzzle the
press by an act which, if it were not suPerla-
lively ridiculous, would be deserving of
worse epithet.
The editor OF the Baltimore Federal Repub-
lican, having minated ms intention to exam
inc and discuss the conduct OF Mr. Blake and
Capt Porter, in their investigation of naval
affairs at Boston, and declared his expectation
OF being able to show that they laid law and
justice PROSTATE, Capt. Porter has thought
proper 10 address him letter, and to Inform
him that : if he takes upon him 10 discuss the
matter on er parte testimony, he will do ii at
hi; own risk, and will be prepared 10 meet The
consequences" Not content with this, lie has
himself published copy Of lis letter, in the
National intelhgencer, having, as he says, g.
desire to warn those who may unjustly assaii
his character, Of the difficulties in which they
may be likely to involve themselves. -
''IIere's large mouth indeed!
'A He speaks PLAN cannon, tire and smoke and
bounce ~
Truly things have come TO fine pass; and
the Iaurels of our naval chiefs surround mort
gracious brows.-Capt. Porter has proved that
he possesses manly daring - but it is not wise
for him TO provoke an enemy that all the
thunders of the nary cannot overcome. He
well may grace the quarterback, but even
spcaking-trumpet viii not enable him TO over
awe the conductors of the American press.
Seriously, we begin nov to apprchend that
there as 8 something rottenn in the adininisira-
ton Of naval affairs. So much beforehand
scnsibii,y augurs extremely i'll. Let the
probe be applied.

have taken the liberty Of enclosing
you the result of an experiment, made
in the use of candles one of which was
made with a wooden wick. the other 10
the usual way with cotton. The can
dies we're made at the same time,
moulded in the same sized moulds,
exact equal weight, both set on FIRE at
the same moment, and placed upon the
same table.
That which was made with wooden
wick. lasted z hours; the other s.; af-
fording equal hight.
/ The size of the candles were about
SIX to the pound, the wood used was a.
part Of cypress Single, and prepared
IN the following manner, 10 wit:
The wood was split to the size of a
rye straw, and made round, SO tnat the
coat Of cotton, which was applied might
be more easily put On by rolling The
stick upon card which contained the
cotton, and which had been previously
well carded.
The stick was then rolled upon Ia
Die, 10 cause the cotton to adhere close
", and then was about the size OF
common quill; it was then placed in
the mould and the tallow poured in.
The stick must be somewhat longer
than the mould, as the candle must be
drawn with pincers.
AgreeabIy to the foregoing expert
ment, a pound Of candles will last forty
two hours, when they would only last
thirty, made after the usual way.
One pound Of raw cotton is sufficient
with The wooden wick) for 100 lbs. Of
Candles. Another great advantage in
us'ng the wooden wick Is, that the can
