| For instance, in direct Contradiction 10 the

forces which are remaining 20 him, and re.

Ia the Oriental Spectator Of the Goth
Sept. ls an article representing the cause
OF Greece To- be- in hopeless state, and
accusing the correspondents of the Greek
Committee Of concealing the truth, in or
der To protect an unavaillDg struggle, to
the injury Of all parties.
The author Of Waverly has returned TO
England--having procured variety OF
important documents at Paris, to illustrate
his Life Of Napoleon. He has moreover
two new novels in forward state. in
one Of them the scene lies in Ireland, and
embraces an interesting period Of legen-
dery history. The other will further IL
lustrate the manners of Scotland, and is
entitled "The Chronicles of Cannongate." 4"
Tho latter will be published shortly.
1t is stated from Sioc kholm, that it is al
most impossible TO form an idea of the mis-
cradle situation Of the agricuturlsts. A
ton of oats costs 3 crowns, 81 shlllibgs
Banco. AS to barley, none can be got,
and the scarcity ofhay and straw is beyond
all description. People are obliged to kill
their cattle from dread Of not being able
to keep them during the winter. a num-
Der of farms have been sod at auction,
because the proPrietors were unable to
pay the taxes.
The accounts from the manufacturing
districts concur i'll stating that much dis
trcss prevailed, and trade was very much
depressed.
A Mr.. Burton, was about 10 bring Lurl-
otis, one Of the Greek Deputies, before
court Of justice, in consequence OF some
charges brought against him in the reply
of the latter to Mr.. Ricardo.

From tho New-York American.

All Americans who have been in Paris
have known or hea rd Of their compatriot
Swan, WHO has been for 20 years a close
prisoner for debt in Paris. BY the annex
ed article from the Journal des Debats oi
30th Dec. it would appear that I've rs Of
length liberated.
Every one hoS heard Of the famous A
mcrican Jas. Swan. This stranger who
owns in Virginia and kent ~, lands w
tire umount or I9,ooU acres, has undergone
lS years confinement, which is said TO be
somewhat voluntarily, at st. PeIagie, and
solely to vex his creditors. The rumor OF
hs wealth can alone give any probability
10 such Il . .rOuyh IL Is certain that after
an Intellectual attempt 10 sell his lands, he
has been unable with all that wealth to pay
his debts, and has therefore been subject
ed to our commercial law against foreign
crs. 1t was in vain that from four TO live
years, he petitioned the courts for dis
charge, he was always defeated. Finally.
after having compromised with the greater
portion Of his creditors, and on the ponl
of quitting the fatal walls, he was sudden
ly recommitted, after several hearings, Al
the suite Of one of his creditors more re-
fractory than the rest, and The whole cause
it was supposed would be referred. Not s,
however; at the opening of the court yes
terdoy, NJ. Mermillo announced tha, the af
fair was aettled, and that his client was f.
nally about to be restored to liberty.
Those who have read "The llcrnits in
Prison." by Jouy and others, may remem-
Dor that the fact of Mr. Swans inpriSon-
ment, his appearance and manner of life,
are therein detailed.

STEAMBOAT ALABAMA

CAHAwBA, Alsb. May l2- While lying at
Vernon, Autauga county, this vessel caught fire on
Monday last, before day and burnt 10 The water
edge. The progress of the flames was so rapid,
and the apprehension from quantity of gunIoN- :
der on board great, that the passengers and most
of the crew rereated 10 The shore with precipiia
ton, without saving any thing of consequence.
The explosion gave, it is true, facility 10 the fire,
bur cannon be considered preventing its extin-
suishment; the fore part of the boat being sheet
OF flames when the disaster was discovered. A
negro fire man pc ished on board. The freight for
Vernon had been landed The goods DESTROYED al c
estimated at nine thousand dollars; and we have not
heard whether any insurance had been effected on
them or on the boat. The fiie Is supposed to have
been accidentally communicated from the furnace
to the adjoining timbers. The Alabama was ia
stout vessel, built last winter for the expires, pur-
pore OF navigating our river; and owned by Joht
Duncan, junior, OF Mobile, the Messrs. Golf near
Selma, and the master. captain Hayden.
