Catholics and Protestants there iivalled

BISHOP CHEVERUS.

We insert, with much pleasure. the
following article from Paris paper,
the Etoile STAR of The 9th of April
1t has been translated by the lady Of one
of our most respectable citizens, resi-
ding, at present, with her family. in the
French Metropolis, and received by her
brother in this city. Though we have
not seen the original article, we are GER
tain it has lost nothing by assuming an
English dress from such lands. We
have seen letter from the amiable
prelate himself, dated Paris, April 26th.
He has accepted The Bishopric of Mon
tauban. and had been informed BY the
Cardinal della Somaglia, the Project of
the Congregation de propaganda fde
that the Pope had acceded to the wishes
of the King OF France. He expected
by every courier, the bulls of his trans
lation, and after presentation at court,
was determined to depart for his desti-
nation. We are persuaded his ministry
will be attended with the same salutary
effects of which it has been productive
in this city. He will promote spirit of
harmony and benevolence amongst all
christians, and if all will not submits
sively bow TO his authority as bishop
of the Christian Church, they will be
obliged, from his mild, tolerant, and per-
suasive spirit, TO regard him as father
and friend
Montauban, the city in which Bishop
Cheverus now resides, is situated in a
beautiful and romantic country, on the
banks Of the Tarn. tributary stream
TO the Garonne. Itpossesses a popula-
ton of 10000 inhabitants, and has an
academy for bellies let,res. We hope
its salutary climate viii protract the va
uable life of this distinguished and vir-
tuous man. We expect soon his letter
TO the Catholics in the New England
States and also letter TO the citizens of
Boston The next packet will probably
bring these two documents. We do not
regret that the good Bishop is 10 close
bis career ip his own beautiful country,
and after a life of drudgery and mission
airy labor of 2s years in this country.
we hope the sun of his existence will
set calm, serene, and unclouded at

Itwould be difficult to calculate all the
good that such bishop, with such piet,
md such zeal, will be able to effect H.

A number of citizens belonging to

Of Massachusetts large tract of land

committee into the Indian country, to

who were aiming at the same purchase
sent them word to come no farther, lest,
thew should be involved in trouble.
The committee having advanced con-
siderable distance into their country,
were unwilling to retrace their steps
without effecting the object OF their
mission. One of them major SCHUYLER,
wrote letter to the commanding officer
at fort Niagara, explaining their inten-
tons, and requesting his Influence with
the Indians. in removing their misappre-
tensions. One of the Indian messengers
undertook to cary the letter to Niagara,
and bring back the answer. The COM
mittee remained where they were. In
the mean time major Schuyler was ia

he would deliverit. He refused. They
consulted among themselves, and ofer-
ed him fifty dollars, as reward for his
service and an inducement to deliver
them the letter. He spurned at their
proposal They again consulted, and
concluded as they were sufficiently nu-
merous to overpower him and the other

We shall ere long be in possession
Of the geography OF the northern coast
Of America, which ought no, 10 have

stretches to a higher latitude, has long

America were ever visited, ard ont of
these placed several degrees of latitude
