we'll as Great Britain and the new ma

The interests of our commerce, as
we'll as all our sympathies, require that
island 10 be free, or to be the appendage
of some Of the free nations of this hemis-
phere. Particularly are the commercial
interests of this section of the union in
teres,ed in the destiny of Cuba. The
trade Of that island is very great, and its
situation contiguous to the mouth OF the
Mississippi would render that trade i'm
portant and lucrative to the states bor-
dering on that river, if an uniettered in
tercourse could be maintained. Great
Britain will look with jealousy on the
acquisition of this island by rival ma

FOR THE SPECTATOR.
COLONIZATION SOCIETY,

AT a meeting of few OF the inhabit-
ants Of Madison county, it was agreed to
recommend to the citizens OF Illinois the
importance and utility OF cooperating
with the great national institution for CO.
Ionlzing the free people OF colour In the
United States.
The American society for colonizing
colored people of the United States was
formed something more than eighi years
ago, in the City Of Washington. The
plan was devised and proposed by the
Rev. DR.. Findly OF New-Jersey. This
good man labored for considerable time
without any apparent success; but this
had only the effect on him to increase his
exerlions. He did no. lay his plans aside
and cease 10 Try, because he did not at
frs, meet with encouragement. No, he
kept trying until he "succecded in caus.
ing few persons TO listen 10 his repre-.
sensations and embrace his views"
When we take view of the vast null
titude of the unfortunate African race
that have been brought into our land,
wilhou, their consent, and contrary 10
every law OF humanily--the increase,
and situation Of those blacks at this time !;
and the impossibilily Of their returning
to their native land without our help, we
cannot bu, admit the ptopricty 0! lending
our aid in restoring them to their native
country, and the enjoyment of that lib
er,y, on which we set SO high value.
There is another fact deserving our
notice, which is, that while we are doing
the blacks a singular favor, and dis
charging very important duty which
we owe to them; we are actually rid.
ding ourselves Of very great evil
The free blacks in the United States are
not only useless, bu, very dangerous
part of our population. 1t is impossi-
BILE that their interest and ours can be in-
corporated; for every thing that increas-
es our authority ana establishes our in.
dependence, goes to degrade and keep
them either IN a state of vassalage or
something almost as undesirable.
"These persons are condemned to a
state Of hopeless inferiority and degra-
dation, by their color; which is an in.
delible mark Of their origin and former
condition, and establishes an impossible
barrier between them and the whites
This barrier is closed forever by our

NEWS FROM EUROPE.

The arrival IN Newly York OF London
papers to the 18Th August has furnished
US news from Greece Of unusual inter-
es
They inform thar the Egyptian Pacba,
who had penetrated to the vicinity of No
fsh al Romanid-almost an extreme
point OF the MGrea from Modon where
hi first landed--had failed in an attack
on that city, had been compelled to re-
treat, and had been Burgoyned.
Parts OF the accounts are stated to have
been written by Gen. Roche, French
Agent in Greece, and to have been re.
ceived by the Greek Committee in Pa.
ris.-If SO, they are entitled 10 credit.
Ope Of the letters is dated a, Naaoh The
28th June 1t announces, that the
Egyptian Pacha appeared before that ca
pnai on tne 25lh June, made and early
attack on the outposts with his whole
force OF 5000 men, was repulsed with
the loss OF 400, and compelled to retreat
towards 1rhshzza and Caiamatra, and
was followed by the Greek gneriias. In
mother letter Of the General, dated at
.Argos, July Cd, he adds, that the Pelo-
penaesus had arisen in mass, and that
the Egyptian army zoas annihilated. In
part cerroboration of The above, Ger
MAJ Journal oil The 9th August, informs,
on the credit OF Greek accounts, that on
the l6ln % OF June, the retrograde
movement ii The Pacha was discovered
from the ramparts of Nohoh: and that
OH the same day the Government had re .
ceived news, that CoLocoTRoNI, with
Is 900 men, had attacked the rear OF the
Egyptian army, and had killed 800 men.

Among the various measures adapt

Sabbath Schools deserves particular at
tention and patronage. In some of its
features it exhibits an elegance which
must be admired by all. The time de-
voted makes no encroacbment upon the
premises of the most rigid parsimony ;
the trifling expense can hardly draw an
objection from gripping avarice itself.
Benevolence being the source from
which flows the gratuitous labors OF SUI
perintendanls and teachers, they are more
likely, by their conscientious endeayors,
to obtain the end in view, than those
who labor merely for pecuniary re-
ward. The stimu iants to exertion in
parents and teachers, are powerful and
pressing. II we enter the spacious field
at contemplation which lies before us,
what visions rise !" what thoughts in
quick succession crowd upon our minds.
We are going the way OF all the earth,
and shortly the place that now knows
us will know us again no more forever.
With parental affection we look round
upon our children, those " olive plants"
and antedate their destiny--our nation
with cltizens--our government with le-
glslalors--our courts with judges-onr
army with soldlers-our shops with
craftsmen-our semlnaries with scholars
and our churches with christians, are,
under Divine Providence, TO be supplied
from these. Survey our children and
our children's children 10 thousand
generations Behold the spreading
branches, from the present day to the
last day OF revolving time ! AID then re-
member that we must meet all these
with the Assem- bled universe, to receive
according 10 the deeds done here in the
body. And what account shall we give
Shall We go forward III that day with the
heart-cheering assurance that we have
used our utmost endeavors 10 direct our
offspring in the path OF lite! Or
shall we fear that they will rise in judg
men, aud condemns US for our neglect
May these considerations be Sc. home
upon our minds, and rouse Us 10 action
aud diligence.
To the youth now before me l ad.
dress few words. Why is there SO
much pains taken to instruct yoo, that
you may acquire knowledge, but that
sou may learn to be good Why are
you taught 10 commit the scriptures to
menory? Is it not that they may prove
fund OF instru clion and comtort, rea-
dy at hand in every time of need. In
Them you are taught the character of
God, your own character, and your duty
10 HIM. In the Bible the plan of re-
demptlon is exhibited, which it is neces-
