an intermission, let It be observed, far
from universal--as it does not extendlo
the three great western states, Ohio,
Kentucky, and Tennessee-nor to the
interior part Of Pennsylvania and New
York-embracing, together, about fifth
part of the population of the Union.
There are strong appearances of at least
partial return of the scenes we have
lately beheI for, like causes produ-
cingl like effects, the great importations
recently made, and still expected, can
scarcely fail to have a similar effect with
those of 1915 and 1916, though proba-
bly, less extensive and oppressive intheir
operation. Nothing can secure this
country from periodical returns of those
scenes of distress, whose fatal traces,
like those of hurricanes and tempests,
are to be found indelibly marked through
out our country, but a protection of
manufacturing Industry equal to that
bestowed on commerce and agriculture.
Your memorialists, therefore, res
pectfulH pray you would take the prem
ises into your serious consideration, and
adopt such measures as you may Judge
adapted to promote the wealth, power,
and resources of the United States, and
give them that stand among the nations
of the earth to which the transcendent
advantages they enjoy, natural, neral,
and physical, give them so fair claim.

+ From he. Nantucket Inquire Of May G. I


Arrived, ship Globe, Gardner, from
the Pacific Ocean, with full cargo of
sperm oil The Globe touched at the
SandwichIslands for supplies
While Capt. Cardner lay at the island
of Woahoo on the 18th Nov. the Royal
Palace Of his Owyhean Majesty was
consumed by fire, consisting of three
large and elegant wickerwork buildings,
surrounded by neat and tasty encios-
ure !; this fire commenced at / / o'clock,
A. Nj. and in twenty minutes the whole
was in ruins.
The Sandwich Islands are now be-
coming place of great commerce, and
the natives making rapid strides to-
wards civilization. From the frequent
visits they have had of late years from
Americans and English, they are daily as
sum;ng their manners and customs and
abolishng their own. No longer is seen
the bow or the spear-no more is heard
the shrll sound of the war couch or the
agonizing shrieks ofthe victim prepared
for the sacrifice. Superstition is done
away-idolatry has ceased the "church
going bell" is now heard to break on the
stiffness Of the sabbath, and the cheering
rays of Christianity have already begun
to beam on these children Of nature.
There are now residing amongst them
several of the Missionary Society from
the United States, with their wives and
families; there IS school kept by them,
and a number of the rising generation
are taught the arts of reading, writing,
drawing, &c. which, together with the
exemplary conduct Of all the society,
the moral and religious precepts deIiv-
cred by the Rev. Mr.. Bingham and the
Rev. Mr.. Thurston in the church, is dali
ly increasing amongst those children Of
nature a high sense Of moral rectitude.
Since the commencement Of the year
The Massachusetts spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1821-1823, 1822-05-29

1871, no less Than 70 ships and brlgS
have visited those islands fof..he object
oftrade or procuring supplies.
The natives themselves are now the
owners Of ten square-rigged vessels,
none less than 100 tons. besides num-
her of schooners and sloops, all of which
they keep constantly going from island
to island, with sandal wood, provisions,
sc. sc. They are principally manned by
natives, sailing them with skill and regu-
larity.
The brig Thaddeus, that carried out
the missionaries TO the Sandwich Islands,
after making one voyage to the north
west coast, on her return, was sold to
REQ REQ, King of the Sandwich Islands,
since which, in his service, she has made
voyage to Kamstchatka; she carried
out load of salt from Mowee* one Of
the grou-, and brought return cargo of
duck, eordage, dried salmon, &c.
In the Missionary Orphan School, at
Woahoo, is young native of the north
west coast, very forward scholar,
reads well, and has made great prcli-
cheney in drawing

The N. Y. E. Post speaking of the
expected war between the Turks and
Russians, observes, after all, we think
the reader will be as much puzzled now
as he was three months age, to form any
satisfactory opinion of what will be the
final result. From respectable pri-
vate source, however, we are satisfied
there is rot remote probability OF such
a war.

sundry important notifications 10 seve-
raj articles of the document. The am
bassadors Immediately despatched cour-
iers to their governments for instruc-
tionss and things remained as they were
till the close Of January. On the Gath of
that month the two ministers addressed
notes to the Refs Efendi, stating, for
the preservation of peace, il was ofthe
utmost importance that the Porte should
accept, at least, all the propositions
founded on ancient treaties with Rus
STA, aud definitely ratified by the latter
that in the actual state Of things, it was
easy to foresee that the Cabinet of ST.
Petersburgh would, on its side, reject
the notifications proposed by the Divan.
Thesetwo notes remained without reply.
Feb, 10th, the two ministers desired
an interview with the REFS Efendi,
who returned for answer that he had
contemplated inviting each separately
to the desired conference. News was
at that time momently expected of the
fate of Ali Pacha, and the Grand Vizier
had resolved on delay till it should be.
received On the 14th of Feb. Ali Pa
cha's death was officially announced,
and produced excessive joy. The Aus
trian Internuncio obtained an audience
with the Refs Elfendi, but the latter
evaded decisive reply. Feb. 18th, a
courier arrived with dispatches for lord
Strangford, from the British cabinet.
The two ministers Immediately demand
ed another conference. The next day,
10Th, lord Strangford had an interview
with the Refs Effendi, aud it was sup
posed that the discussion terminated ia
vourably to the preservation of peace.
From this time until the 9th, nothing
important occurred, save the birth of Il
son to the Sultan, which was hailed with
greatjo and the publick rejoicings on
the occasions continued for several dlys.
On the 23th, the English minister had
an audience with the Refs Efendi, when
he insisted upon the pure and simple
accepation of the propositions of Rus
STA, as the only means of maintaining
peace The Turkish minister replied,
that the Porte knew perfectly well lis
obligations, but that Russia was equally
! bound by ancient treaties, and had not
hitherto observed them. Lord Strang-
I, ford having asked whether, in case the
Porte should not accept all the condi-
tons 1fered by Russia, it would not be
| expelient to send an extraordinary am
basssdour 10 the emperour Alexander !!
1t was replied to this question, that the
Porte not having broken the peace, it
would not send to ask its continuance.
Finally, the English minister desired TO
fix with the Refs Efendi peremptory
term for the definite answer of the
Porte but Sadir decidedly rejected all
propositions on this point, as an intrusion
upon the dignity of the Sultan.

traordln,rily-the principal officers of
