LOVE, A FATAL PASSION.

\ young man was indicted and found gull
ty before the Recorder of New-York, for
having stabbed a lady, Mrs CatlAarine Nor
gan, with a penknife. He proved to &c a
youth but OF twenty one years of age, and
he was sentenced to the penitentiary for
three years. The following is his explana-
tion of his motives for attempting SO sanguin-
ary an act
Hcreupon the prisoner, young man of
u or %, of slender frame, and rather below
the middle statue, arose to address the court.
His calm and mild, but firm department,
his regular countenance, [rendered little
pale by imprisonment, though illuminated
by clear and expressive eyes,) his plain, yet
very decent dress, and his youthful appear
ance, altogether impaired much interest
to the case. His voice was clear and dis
tinct, void of all trembling or embarrass
ment; and without any ofthe oratorical forms
and attitudes taught any where but in ma
furc's school-without any of the prepara
tons in position or in speech and gestures,
practiced by some great orators I'M courts
and congress--he "told his tale" in manner
far superior to that of most of the daily

latest i'rum Europe.

The ships Mentor and James Croppcr, at
New York, from Liverpool, furnish Lon
don papers to the llth, and Liverpool to the
10th September inclusive.
These papers contain several official doc
uincnts touching the affairs Of Greece, the
substance whereof We here present to our
readers. 1t appears from these documents
that the Egyptians effected landing at
Navarino, and were marching in all their
force to Join Ibrahim Pacha, who remained
awaiting their arrival General Colocotroni
formed the design OF surprising Ibrahim Pa
cha, and OF bringing him to battle before
the arrival OF these forces. With that view,
on the 4tll OF July last, he attacked lbrahlm
Pacha with nine thousand men in several di-
visions. The battle was fought ut Tricor-
pha, III which, after an obstinate confict of
hve hours, the Greeks gave way in every
direction and the retreat became general.
General Colocotroni acknowledges the loss
OF one general and eleven superior officers,
although he states the number of killed
only at thirty. The consequences of this
battle do not appear to have been SO dis
asterous as might have been anticipated, or
to have subdued the spirit of the Greeks
he battle WAS fought on the fourth of July
between the thirteenth and fourteenth Of
the same month, Reschid Pacha made three
furious attacks on Missolonghi, IN each of
which he was successively defeated. At
length the Turkish feet having appeared
before MissolongAi. Resclid Pacha deemed
this the most favourable moment Of attack
and so confident was lie of success that he
employed the agency of neutral powers to
solicit the Greeks to lay down their arms.
The answer to this application is worthy of
the descendants of Leonidas =
'The hero Bozzars declared that he and
his 500 men would remain and become vic
tins OF their devotion to their country He
therefore, sent away the mediators with
woi ds dictated by the bitterness of BIS soul.
and they returned to the PacIta with his an
swer, begging him 20 pay na attention to
the words of .icn driven to despair, but to
treat them with his accustomed philanthro-
phy, on his becoming master of the place =
The Captain Paciia then, in concert with
lbrahim, prepared for the assault, the lat
ter sending one hundred small boats load
ed with troops to commence the assault by
sea, while Reschid Pacha invested the for.
tress with all his forces by land. After q
mo- q irious battle of six hours, during which
time nothing was seen but the smoke, ant
nothing heard but the roar of cannon: al
the conclusion of the battle, through tn,
volumes OF smoke, was seen the standard O
the Cross on the fortications of Missolonghi
The trenches were filled with dying ant
wounded men. and the sea was covered witt
dead bodies. In the midst of tsis carnac,
the Greek Admiral Miaulis appeared, viii,
burned one frigate, one corvette and too!
many smaller vessels. Reschid pacha re
treated precipitately with his land forces
and the Grecian Admiral was still in pursui
of the Captain Pacha.

PATHETIC NARRATINE.--The re-
markably line bells of Limerick Cathedral
were originally brought from Italy; they had
been manufactured BY Young native (whose
name tradition has not preserved } and fin
ished after the toll of many ye;.,s; and he
prded himself upon his work They were
subsequently purchased by the prior of
ncighborlng convent; and with the profits of
tins sale the Young Italian procured little
villa, where he had the pleasure of hearing
the tolling Of his bells from the convent
ciif, and growing old in the bosom of do
nestic happiness. This however, was not
to Continue. In some of those broils, wheth-
er civil or foreign, which are the uutlying
worm OF 4 fallen land, the Italian was suf-
terer amongst many. He lost his all, and
after the passing of the storm, found him
SELF preserved alone amidst the wreck of
fortune, friends, family and home. The
convent in which the bells were hung vas
razed to the earth. and these last carried a.
way into another land. The owner, haunt
ed by his memories, and deserted by his
hopes, became a wanderer over Europe.
/ His hair grew gray, and his heart witheretl,
before he again found a home or friend.
In this desoation of spirit. he formed the
resolution of seeking the place to which
those treasures of his memory had been
| finally borne. He sailed for Ireland--pro-
ceeded up the Shannon-the vessel anchored
in the pool, near Limerick, and he hired a
small boat for the purpose of landing. The
city was now before him; and lie beheld St
Mary's stecple lifting its turreted head a
bove the smoke and mist of the Old Town
He sat at the stern and looked fondly to-
ward it. 1t was an evening so calm ant
