ADAMS and JEFFERSON

The following letters of these distinguish
ed personages deserve to be recorded, as lit
erary curiosities. 1t is diverting enough that
Mr.. A. should subscribe himself the g old
friend" of Mr.. jefferson; but it is of apiece
with his late declaration, that he and MIR. J.
never were riruis The jokes which these
octogenarians have thought proper to pass up
on such uninteresting matters to philosophers,
as life, death, heaven, sc. may go for what
they are worth. 1t should, however, be re-
marked, that Mr.. Adams, in his reply to his
old friend, has had the temerity to introduce,
under the protective shape Of two poetical
quotations, some reference to the existence
and viii of the Supreme Being.

s. CYPRUS, AUG. Is:

I" Sixty-two towns and villages in this
unhappy island have wholly disappear
ed-only their ruins remain 10 attest
the barbarity of their destroyers and
yet the rage of these blood-staihed mon
sters is not yet appeased. A band of
wretches very lately repaired TO Nor
phon, where they destroyed every
thing with fire and sword---the women
and children were for the Host part
taken, and confined for several days in
private houses, without food those
who were not destroyed by hunger,
we're burnt, together with the houses.
Every house is marked by murders in
all parts of the island. The Christians
are hunted like wild beasts. 1t is chief
ly upon the churches and the ministers
of the Christian religion, that these
stupid Turks continue to exercise their
fury. At St. Niassa, after ',illing or
taking prisoners the inhabitants in the
time of peace, they burnt the images OF
the church, and transformed the. edi6ce
into stable. At Chryso-Rojatissa, the
church of Aspro-Panagi, was changed
into mosque.
Very lately, the Zabit (sub-gover-
nour) of Cyrenia, at the head of band
of furious wretches, entered the con-
want nf Pantoloimon, and after having
saddled and bridled the monks, like
beasts Of burden, they mounted on their
backs, and SO rode about the country.
Some Of these unfortunate men expired
from fatigue. The GOVERNOR OF the
island, a man equally feroctous and stu
pid, lately sent his co0as, (the perform
er of his orders TO the monastery of
Eicon, where some caloyeis (anehorets)
sUlil remained This officer, no less
cruel than his master, made several of
these poor solitaries expire in fortunes !;
among others, father Sylvester, who
was known throughout this island. The
rest dispersed, leaving the monastery
deserted.
$ The Turks then set fire TO the en-
virons. The confagration continued
% days, gradually extending to all the
neighbouring districts. Several fine
forests of fruit-trees, vineyards, &c.
have fallen prey TO the flames. The
damage done by this fire is incalcula-

added the devastation of the greater
part Of Syria by earthquakes, which had
not ceased on Sept. 9th for. the same
day news stroke threw down edifices at
Aleppo, which had before resisted its eff
fects, and not habitable house remains
in that city, which has lost 10000 in
habitants besides an immense number of
wounded. Several rich people, and the
foreign Consuls, have had houses built
of wood in the garden TO pass the win
ter. Many other towns of Syria have
also suffered more or less from the
same cause; even at Damas, and the
island of Cyprus, slight strokes were
felt In the midst of their disasters, the
Turks crowd their mosques, and predict
the dissolution of their empire.
