LONDON, NOV. "a.
The news from Constantinople up to
the 22d ult. confirms all we have heard
of the decline of the Turkish power.
One of the latest acts of the Porte indi-
Gates the financial extremties to which
the Sultan is reduced. He will no Ion
ger pay the expense of victualling the
garrison of Patras. Whether this he re-
garded as an abandonment of the Morea,
on account of the hopelessness of its
subjugation, or as an act of absolute ne
cessity, from the exhaustion of the I'm
perial Treasury, it equally reveals the
fact of his conscious weakness. Not a
vessel now sails on the Levant under the
Crescent, while the Greek squadrons
are every where. There seems to be
no doubt that the Captain Pacha has
been put TO death. On the Continent,
General Ranges, acting on the offensive,
had penetrated as far as Mount Chimera,
and summoned Arta to surrender. He
announced, in an address to the Turkish
inhabitants, that Omer Vrione was
blockaded in Carvassara, by Prince
Mavrocordato.

.Murder.-It is our painful duty to re-
cord the murder of Mr.. Abraham Fuller,
of Northeast township, on Thursday
night last, by Benjamin Law, of the
same township. The circumstances at
tending this transaction, as related 10 US,

village of Northeast, in company with
some of their neighbors, where they re-
manned until after dark they started
home together, in state of inebration,
and took bottle of whiskey with them.
On arriving at Mr.. Laws house, Mr..
Fuller was invited in, and after Mrs.
Law had prepared supper, he was re-
qnested to sup with them. MIR. Fuller
declined-Law insisted on his eating,
and Mr.. +, still refusing, Law then said
he should not eat with them. Upon this
declaration, Fuller drew his chair up TO
the table and took supper. After sup

Gorsrnor's Message Although we cannot
coincide with all the propositions in the Gov
enor's Message, yet we would express our
hearty appreciation of the spirit in which it is
written, uncontaminated, as it is, with an ex-
posture of those feelings, which have, in some
instances, heretofore, deformed similar COM
munications.
The subject of internal improvements is
one, which we are glad to see recommended
to the notice OF the Legislature, and we trust
it may be productive of results honorable TO
the intelligence and liberality of the State
Connected with this subject is the proposition,
which ought Immediately to be introduced in
to the Legislature, to authorize a survey for
the purpose of forming new and correct map
OF the State.

to those producing the phosphorence Of the

he can shift his position SO as to catch the gale,

the sun warm. he will turn himself upon his
side, wet his sail, and then right his little bark
