We should care but very little about ma

sion involved only the characters of the H.
tigaDt parties. lfonc officer has done an

ished by the righteous Judgment ola com

ference. But it is the mischief, the COLA
terdl mischief, done by such enquiries and
Investigations, that we protest against. and
mourn for the consequences. Let Us state
this thing in PLAN aud perspicuorls man
ner. A Jealous friend of the naval estab-

martial, on the complaint of a brother Off

he is pleased to find, that impartial Justice
has been done. He expects to behold the
naval spiritrise with disciplined energy from
the shock. But very different ideas are en-
tertained, by those hostile to the naval es-
tablishment they rejoice in the sentence
of court, inillctng punishment ON a naval
officer, for violation of his duty, because
they wish to render the navy itself unpopu-

violence, that such institutions are best;ie
to the genius, temper and spirit of free go

THEATRE.

The town has been for several weeks re-
galed with feast al once newsahd delight
ful--it has been indeed, "tbsfcast Of rea-
SON. The theatre has been opened, aud
orr citizens have for the first lime, greeted
with unbounded applause, the performance
of several of the best play in the langlage-
by the first regular company that have evei
visited this plare. Every person who has
seen them will Admit thai We have beer
treated with ~ The luxury Of .susettll mlrlh
and salutafy woeo-that they have " held
" the mirror up % nature shown virtue heI

" SURE"
II is not necessary for my purpose TO cri-
tieise the performance Of individual actors.
Suffice il to say that all are respectable and
several excellent But there IS one indyi-
dual, who does not appear on the stage, and
whose merits are consequently more liable
10 be overlooked, 10 whom we are perhaps
more largely indebted for our enjoyment
than to any other. This individual is Mr..
Grim. To this gentleman we are mol only
indebted for al the beautiful scenery that
decoratcs orr Stage and makes the illu-
sion perfect, but for the opening of the
Tbeatre.-Itisa fact, perfectly within the
knowledge Of the writer, that but for his
exertions, the company would moi have yisi-
tedthis place.
"Itkel" and The Bndget Of BiuaderS,"
for tie benefit of Mr.. Grain, are announced
for this evening 1t would have been diff
cult To make better selection. In addl-
ton to the acknowledged excellence Of the
play, il gives ample scope for the exercise
of Mr. Grains peculiar talent, which will
no doubt be exerted on this occasion to the
utmost. Those who visit the Theatre this
evening may calculate in addition to the u
sual amusement of good play, well per-
formed, upon seeing the stage decorated in
a style superior to any thing OF the kind e.
yer exhibited in this place.
OF the farce, il is only necessary to OBJ
serve, that to those who enjoy broad fun
and hearty laugh il will be treat indeed.
II is confidently anticipated that the q" low
ers of the drama will evince, by Il crowded
house, that they justly appreciate the merit
and services of Mr. Grain. Y.

ting 10 natural and ordinary means, bHl en-
deasored 10 enlist on your behalf, all the
powers Of darkness, and employed for that
purpose, the most disgusting mummery
and superstition. You represented your
sell as inyulnefahle that YOU could neither
he taken nor:destroyed, aud all VINO fought
under your banners would be insineible.
While such wretehed expedients are caicll-
lated 10 inspire the confidence, or To alarm
ne fears of the ignorant aud credalous,
they excite no piher emotion IN the mind
of the intelligent and enlightened, but con
tempt and disgust. Your boosted Charms
have not preserved yourself, and OF course
could not protect others. Your Affairs
4 yourGods have sunk togetherlnthe dust.
The airy speetres, conjured by you, have
been chased away by the special light ol
Truth. and you stand exposed, the mIsera-
BILE and deluded victim Of offended Justice.
Your days are literally numbered. You
will shortly be consigned 10 the cold and
silent grave, and all the Powers Of Darkness
cannot rescue you from your approaching
Fate! Let me then conjure you 10 devote
the remnant Of your miserable existence, in
fleeing from the q" arrdth 10 come This
can only be done by full disclosure Of the
truth. The Court are wilingto afford you
all the aid in their power, and 10 permit
any Minister Of the Gospel, whom you may
select, To have free access 10 you. To
him You may unburthen your guilty con
science. Neglect not the opportunity, for
there is no device nor art beyond the

aud The spirit aud intelligence displayed by
those who conducted the above investiga-

1t is remarkable coincidence that the
name of Col. Prioleau's faithful servant
who lelt It his duty to protect his master
and family, and our whole city from the
late meditated massacre, is, Peter, and is
the second ofthe same name and belonging
to he same family, who has rendered this
service to uth-Carona. The remark is
trivial, but the facts themselves should be
perpetual monitions to all future cyil-think-
ers that there ever will, az there ever have
been, SERVANTS Of principles md integrity
who will discover and Illustrate such guilty
projects. And even should fear prevent
them, there are always TO b. found some

: TREATY. OF CLIENT.

MIR. R"sseH,--With mingled feelings of
shame and indignation we have lust read the
very interesting and able comments of John
Qaincy .4ddnss, Gas communicated to Congress
by the PresidenO upon Mr.. Russell's lately
published denunciation of the views and con-
duct of the majority Of the American Com
missioners at Client.
During the late session of Congress. reso-
luton passed, upon the motion, as was sup
posed, of some friend of Mr.. Russell,) calling
on the President for a copy of letter written
by MIR. r. to the Secretary of State, soon after
the conclusion Of the treaty of Ghent--which,
it was supposed, would disclose something
prejudicial to the majority of the Commission
ers, and especially to Mr.. Adams. No such
letter was found in the department of State |;
but Mr. Russell Immediately placed on the
files paper puportiug to be copy of the
letter required. The President communicated
these facts to Congress, adding that he had
found among his private papers, the original
letter, marked '2Tirate," by Nix. r. and

.MIDDLESEY C9NaT,

The commissioners, who, in, 1916, came
from New York to examine the Nliddlesex
Canal in this State, reported, that Z" the lands
within six miles, on each side of the Canal.
have increased one-third in price, while land
IN the country generally retains its former
value. In the State of New-Hampshire
through which the Merrinack flows, timber
is now worth from one to three dollars per ton
standing-betore the Canal was made, il was
worth nothing. SO that in the article of tim
Der alone that State is supposed to have been
benefited to the amount, OF at least, 5000, 900
oil dollars. The woodland there has risen in
price, since the opening of the Canal, from
2 dollars per acre, to 6, 8, and 10 dollars per
acre. Communicated.

that he would communicate Il, together with
such statements as might be made by other
members Of the Commission, If, on the whole.
the House Of Representatives should deem #
expedient. second call was then made. bv
Mr.. Adams's friends, as it is understood and
the original letter, Mr.. Russelps eopy and the
remarks of Mr.. Adams thereon, were commu-
nicated.
MIR. Russell's letters Especially the " copv.n
for there are rery material pariatioras between
that and the original, are laboured effort to
represent in an unfavourable light, the con-
duct of Mr.. Adams, Mr.. Gallatin, and the
late Mr. Bayard, in relation to the negotiations
concerning our right to the fisheries, and the
right of Great-Britam to navigate the Missis;n-
pi-both of which were stipulated for in the
treaty of 1888. As we understand him, he has
charged those Commissioners with weakness
and absurdity, and disregard of their in
structions and of the interests Of the country.
With what injustice he has done this. and of
how many inconsistencies he has convicted
himself, is most convincingy shown by Mr..
Adams, in his 6 Remarks We have seldom
read production, combining SO much
severity and sarcasm with so little of unbe-
coming personal invective, and with so much
force of reasoning and clearness OF illustra-
ton. ee
We regret it is out Of our power to put our
readers in possession of all these interesting
documents. They would occupy nearly thir-
ty columns like ours. The people, however.
of this Congressional District especially, ought
to be possessed of them and we trust that,
before next Forenabsr, they will be. Mr..
Secretary Adams ha no peculiar claim upon
their sympathies; but they do feel lively
regard for their O,cn reputation and for the
honour Of their country.
