The Bcrean, with Scripture and common sense
for his guides, examines freely the opinions and
practices of the religious professors OF the pre-
sent day. Bound to no sect, as sect, nor to any
creed, or set of opinions, becatGe Snpp0rfedby
great names, he reduces to practice the excellent
advice Of the Apostle,
Prore all things; hold fast that which is coca"
With the Bible in his hand, the Berean con-
tends for what he believes to be the faith once
delivered 10 the saints"--a faith both simple and
practical, and within the compass of the hum
blcst perceptions Controversyn the commonly
accepted sense, and opinions having no bearing
on practicc, he freely abandons to polemicM yea

Gen. Sumpter, too came in, and as TAYLOR
expressed regret that he had done no bet

him more honour than the most brilliant

On searching the pocket of the brave ser
geant Johnson, they found a letter which he
had lust received from his mother in Lon
don. 1t served to show in what midnight
darkness the ministry kept the people OF
England, with respect to the war OF Amen

congratulates her dear son on the blessed
news that they had just received, VIZ that
rebellion in the colonies was happily eXtin-
guishetl, and that her darling child now that
peace was restored was no longer exposed
to the danger of war--and how glad she
would be, if she could come out to see HIM,
and be with him once more before she died.

sigh turning from the letter, he beheld poor

DIED.

On Monday Morning, at Mount Vernon
NoBLEr HERBERT, Esq. Attorney at Law. In
the sudden and unexpected death Of this gen
tleman, the society in which he moved has
been deprived of a valuable member. He
sustained all the social relations with perfect
integrity. To urbanity in manners he united
the strongest friendship and affection. As a
father, husband, and brother, he afforded a
model worthy of imitation, and reH citing on
his memory the highest degree Of praise and
honor. The recollection Of the virtues OF the
deceased will be long cherished by those who
knew him; it will tend to soothe the distressed
bosom in the hour of affection, and to impart
some small share of consolation to his relatives
and friends.
Also, died, at the same place, on Sunday
night, Jane and Robert, children of the de-
ceased; the former aged six, and latter tour
wears. The unsparing but just hand OF Divine
Providence, in its wise and mercifui dispense
ton, in addition to the heavy bereavement
sustained by the death Of an afectionate hus-
band. has snatched from the fond embraces
of doating mother these two little interesting
and innocent children. Oh Lord how mys'
ferrous and unaccountable are thy works. 1t
is urduty to submit with passive obedience
to thy mandates. In the language of Chris.
tan resignation, "Let thy will done"

stretched across the bay from the Cape
to Old Point Comfort, under easy sail,
with a fresh easterly breeze, in a line,
with intervals Of about two miles be-
tween them, and a more grand and
imposing exhibition, or one better cal
culated to inspire admiration, cannot
well be conceived. On coming to an.
Choir the senior Admiral's ship, the
Eylau, fired salute which was an
swered by corresponding number of
guns from Fortress Monroe.
We understand the squadron will
remain in our waters until the hurri-
cane season in the West Indies is over.
The novelty of the exhibition of so
large naval force, had its effect on
the curiosity Of our citizens, and a
large party went down in the steam
boat Virginia on Saturday morning
to enjoy it. After running down the
line of the squadron, the Virginia bore
up again to the headmost ship, the
Eylau, and on coming abreast of her
lay TO for a few minutes to afford the
passengers an opportunity Of a leisure
ly view of that superb ship; when i'm
mediateiy the boats Of the Eylau were
sent off with polite invitation from
Admiral JURIEN to the ladies and gen.
tlemen on board the Virginia, to visit
his ship. The invitation was joyfully
accepted, and in little time the whole
party were conveyed on board the Ey-
lau, where they were received and en-
tertained with that distinguished po-
likeness, attention, and hospitality so
characteristic of the French nation.
After being shewn through every part
of the ship, the party were conducted
to the Admiral's quarters, where re-
freshments were served round, and the
company were made perfectly at
home," by the polite and assidious al
tention u the officers, and took their
leave with feelings of the warmest re-
gard for their entertainers. The Ey-
lau it will be recollected was one of the
squadron of three ships, under Admi-
raj JURIEN, which visited us about this
time last year, and remained in Hamp'
ton Roads until late in October.

Common tobacco Of the lower coun.
ties is said 10 bring better price than
it has done these FIVE or six years.
AS far as can be Judged from what has
come in for inspection, the last years
crop will fall short by several thousand
hogsheads, and the present drought
will much affect the growing crop
the prospect of good price for what
will be made, therefore, is thought to
be very good.
