6 MIssoLoNGHI, JAN. g, 1926.
"On the morning of the 30th Deem
Der, the Turks were seen advancing in
three heavy columns in the direction
of the George Franklin and Boizaris
batteries, led on by German officers,
under a tremendous fire Of artillery
and mortars; at the same time their
feet commenced most furious attack
on the port. They were received by
destructive shower of grape and mus
quetry from the troops and batteries
at the same time discharge of shells
and rockets added 10 their dismay, but
10 spite Of heavy loss, they advanced
and carried two of the outposts. The
conflict now ragged with the greatest fu-
ry, shot and shells spread death 10 every
direction. Our gallant artillery and
rifemen excited terror around them.
1t is impossible to describe the horrors
of the scene all around was obscured
with clouds of smoke. At this moment
two Turkish vessels blew up with a
tremendous explosion ; still they per-
sisted, and after two hours fighting,
they succeeded in obtaining possession
Of the Franklin battery. After heavy
loss, an officer planted the Turkish col
ours on the rampant, when our gallant
leader ST. Aubyn, rushed forward and
hurled him from the walls. The
ground was uow disputed inch by inch,
the slaughter was tremendous on both
sides; the Turks were three times driv-
en- back with immense loss, Of they must
have succeeded, when Admiral Miaulis
entered the harbour, and commenced a
furious attack on their fleet, which end
ed in their total defeat, with the loss Of
sixteen sail burnt or taken. The inf
dels we're now totally routed, and flying
in all directions, pursued by our victoTi-

taneously, or by order of State authority, and
repelled the foe, and saved the State from dis
honor.
The most of these services have, in repeat
ed messages of the President TO this House,
been declared to be patriotic, and indispen-
SADLY necessary 10 the defence of the country,
and have also had the same testimony in
their favour from every committee of this
House to whom they have been referred.
The other States have been allowed for like
services, while the whole Of this claim has
been refused.
And now, sir, who is it that demands reim-
bursement? 1t is not party to this contro-
versy which took place eleven years ago =
it is not disobedient militia officer who
makes the demand. No, sir, il is the people
of Massachusetts, who had nothing, and could
have had nothing to do with contest between
the United States and the Governor, as milf
tia officer. 1t is the people of that ancient
State, which occupies one of the brightest pa
ges in the history of this nation sit 10 that
people who have poured out their blood and
| their treasure in defence ofthe URited States
and shall they be made the victim of selfish
policy' Shall they be told that they stand
responsible for the opinions and the neglect
of militia officers, with whose conduct the
State has no connection Is this the manner
in which the Constitution is to receive con-
| struction? Is member of this coniederacy
to be fined for constitutional heresy? 1t j:
now the fashion to maintain State right, State
independence, and State prerogatives. re-
joice that the day has come which returns thi
doctrine upon us-for to my mind, no axiom
no political truth, is more obvious than tina
the permanence and stability of our institutions
depend upon free exercise of all the right
reserved 10 the States. And although, in ex
pressing this sentiment, intend no hostility
to this Government yet it is my belief, thai
the salvation of this Republic depends upor
the preservation of State prerogative. vii
snis House reject this claim? Will it set {
( precedent so full of danger' Win it plan
in the side of member of this confederacy
thorn 10 ranlle and spread disease and dis
content in the body polite? God forbid tina
it should SO depart from the purposes of it
institution, and DO such injustice to its owl
character.

The Dey of Algiers having declared
war against Spain, will, it is supposed,

Remarkable Eruption. In Calais, a
town adjoining this, an eruption took
place about ten days ago, by which a
large quantity of earth was thrown
from the side of hill, and near its
base, leaving a cavity which measures
IL feet in depth, on the upper side,
six rods in length, and forty feet wide.
Large trees were growing upon the
spot, which were removed with such
force, as TO cause them to fall with their
tops up the hill, although, while stand.
ing, they leaned down the hill nearly
81 degrees from perpendicular point.
The ground was frozen nearly two feet
deep, aud was broken in a perpendicu-
lar manner. Large stones weighing
from 3 to- 400 pounds were thrown so
rods, and one, which our informant
thinks will weigh between S and 10
hundred, was thrown about eight rods.
The force must have been great, as
| he explosion was heard at considerable
| distance. The assures in the rocks. az
the bottom, and on the sides of the cav
i'y, are barely large enough to admit
mans hand.
The cause of this explosion is un-
known. Some suppose it TO have been
effected by water-but this is not very
probable, although there was, undoubt-
eddy, considerable quantity Of water.
Yet The explosion being instantaneous,
there must have been some invisible
cause of the eruption. 1t furnishes
subject for the investigation of the phi
losopher, and cannot fail to excite the
attention of the curious.
