POSTSCRIPT.

Just as our paper was going to press,
we received accouEts that Porto Cavel-
10, the last hold of the Spaniards, in the
great Republic of Columbia, had surren-
dered, to the forces under Generals Pa
ez and Bermudez
We have also accounts from England,
to the LIST ult.
1t is said, that England makes a stand
against any farther extension of the power of
Russia in the East of Europe, and any attack
on the new American States, except by Spain
or Portugal, depending solely on their Own re-
sources. Great preparations are making in
the naval arsenals of England.
France is to continue the military occupa-
ton Of Spain, to a certain extent, until the
Government of Ferdina is entirely, and
firmly re-established.
Nina, and others continue in opposition,
and Spain appears to be in very unsettled
state. AZ

THE CONSEQUENCES OF RUM


We are informed, that, on the 22d. ult. two
children, in Leicester, were found in such a
state of intoxication, as to cause great alarm,
to their Parents, which induced them to procure
immediate medical aid, by means of which,
they were, probably, saved from premature
death. On the recovery of their senses, they
informed, that there was yet another, in the
same situation, in which they were found.
Immediate search being made, he was dis
covered, but, alas too late, his jaws were
fixed, and every effort to administer relief,
proved fruitless, and he died, guiltless VIC
tim to that fell destroyer, which daily causes
so much misery to mankind.
1t appears, that these children had found a
bottle, which was kept concealed in stone
wall, near where they lived, by some rum
drinker, who, probably, did not choose that
others should know how much he drank, and
they partook too freely of it, without being a.
ware of its dangerous consequences.
fevery days experience, did not convince
us, that argument and reason, are alike, lost
upon the victims of intemperance, we should
suppose, that circumstance like the forego.
ing, might, at least cause them to pause, and
to ponder, before they advance farther in
the path, which, they must know, will Lead
them to inevitable destruction.

William II. Crawford, the man Of a
Caucus, not of the PeopLe.-At the Great
Democratic Festival at Philadelphia, the
name of the Secretary of the Treasury
given as toast was literally Kissed doom,
a proceeding which the Democratic
Press says, Gas very much to be regret
ted. The following account ofthe trans
action is given in the official statement
published by the committee Of arrange
ment.
BIZ Gen. Castor. WILLIAM H. CRAw-
FORD: An enlightened statesman, a dem
ocrat in principle and practice, and we'll
qualified to succeed Jefferson, Madison,
and Monroe in the administration Of our
government.
To avoid any misconstruction of their
conduct, the committee of arrangement
deem It proper to state distinctly, that
this toast, and this one only, was receiv-
ed with repugnance. Upon its being
read, loud and almost universal express
sion of disapprobation broke forth. The
President of the day, in forcible Ian
guage, interfered, and required order:
some of the vice presidents and several
members of the committee of arrange
ment earnestly demonstrated against
showing want of respect for the senti-
ment of any gentlemen present: and re-
peated efforts were made to rcannounce
the toast. 1t was, nevertheless, perse-
veringly resisted and to avoid an unnec-
essary break upon the harmony of the
festival, it was ultimately abandoned.
The committee of arrangement, as Off
GERS, regretted the occurrence, and
would cheerfully have repaired it, had
not the very audibly proclaimed sense
of the company deprived them of the
power to do so,

A desperate villain.-We understand
black fellow was taken up on suspicion
at Brooklyn, on Saturday morning last,
with back load of live turkeys. He
could not OF rather would not, give any
account where OF how he became pos
sessed Of them, and was accordingly put
in the custody of an officer for commit
tai to the county gaol. On their way,
the prisoner desired to stop moment
at the way side, and Immediately drew
from his trowsers pocket pistol, pre-
sented it to'the breast of the officer, and
snapped it.: fortunately it missed fire.
The undaunted officer at once felled
him TO the ground, took it from him, and
found in his possession flask ofpowder
and a quantity of leaden balls. On eX-
animation, the pistol was found to con-
tain three bullets, and proper quantity
Of powder; he was, however, safely
conducted to prison, and now remains
chained securely TO the floor, to await
his trial.--Patriot.
