John RandoNh.-A friend Of ours, (says
the editor of the Worcester Spy,) now resi-
ding in Paris, writes, under date of Sept. s,
as follows:-"Our odd countryman, John
Randolph, has been some days in Paris. 1t
is said that he visits nobody, and does not
like to have it known that he is here. saw
a gentleman two or three days since, who
has been travelling with him in England.
lie says John is tired Of Europe, downheart-
ed, and intends returning soon to the United
States. When he was in Liverpool, he at
tended the theatre, and John Randolph-like,
seated himself In the pit. His outlandish
dress. and his queer figure and physiognorny,
attracted the notice of John Bull black
guard, who began to make him the but of his

We are sorry to state, says the National
Intelligencer, that the Secretary of War has
been confined by severe ii,disposition, for ten
or twelve days past. HIS disorder is snbsi-
ding. however, and it is hoped that he will
be able to resume his pubtc duties in the
course of few days.

and il is very reasonable conjecture
that all the same provisions will be ex-
tended to Greece. ii is understood Mr..
Canning, is the warm friend of the
Greeks, and win exert himself 10 do
every thing for them which is consistent
with The two main principles, upon.
which this question must be determined.
No Incorporate and unnecessary inter
position with the Independence of the
Government Of Conslautinopie, and sec
oudly, the protection Of Europe against
the espntual ggrandizement of Russia,
by any future annexation to the Greek
Province.
The second subject of the discussion
in these Cabine; Councils has been the
affairs of Spain, upon which, like
wise, we believe, the British Govern
ment has come 10 resolution TO act
with detinitive determination. The
ditish Cabinet can no longer allow that
Spain should remain so completely al
the mercy of France, as at any time to
be Incorporated with that monaI chy.--
A sufficient time has elapsed to estab-
lisb, beyond all doubt, that the Span
iards will not, peaceably and TRANQUILITY,
submit TO the absolute Government OF
Ferdinand, aud that il is he wish of The
nation 10 have Constitutional Govern
peni OF two chambers The example
Of the Emperor of Brazil has confirmed
the strength of these arguments, and
has rendered ii no longer possible for
Ferdinand to refuse or withhold SINH
lar charter TO his own subjects, without
perpeiuating and extending state of
anarchy and misgovernment, which Eu-
rope cannot longer admit. Ferdinand,
however, is still very reluctant to make
TINS concession, aud, very probably, is
endeaVorlng TO make an alliance with
the Russian Emperor and Ministry, who
are from interest ayerse TO all reforms.
The British Cabinet has here a very
difficult game TO play, but we trust that
il will succeed in extending The blessings
of a free and settled Government into
these regions.

Tarkey.-The Sultan has followed up
his decisive triumph over the Law less
Janizaries, by measures which, if per-
sisted in with the firmness which has
marked the commencement Of the
change, will effect a grand and beneficial
revolution throughout the Turkish EN-
pire. II is stated, that at AdrianopIe
some Disturbances had taken place, in
consequence of the suppression of these
arbitrary soldiers but the stern orders
issued by the Sultan soon suppressed The
ebnliition; and it is probable that he
will succeed in annihilating the whole
order of the Janizaries throughout the
empire.

All the world has heard of the artist,
who painted truit so well that the fowls
OF the air came and pecked at the pic
iure. A circumstances, somewhat akin
10 this, took place in this city en- Friday
last. In Mr. Try's furniture warehouse,
hung two oil paintings; the one repre-.
senlibg fish, and the other dead game.
They are exceedingly we'll executed,
and ETC have been refused for the pair.
On the day above mentioned, pointer
dog entered and fixing his eyes on the
painting of the game, which was hang
ing above a side board, sprung at il with
such fury, that he brought the picture
TO the ground. and broke the frame to
pieces. Fortunately The picture was un-
injured.

der in the Peuitentiary.
This young mans case is strong
one for those who deny the efficacy of
capital punishment, aud equally stroug
for The advocates of the -penitentiary
system. But two days ago, he express
ed himself satisfied with his condemna-
tion----he bad rather, he said, much
rather be executed, than to serve out
his remaining three years 10 the peni-
ten,iary.-He had served there long e.
nough, he thought, ( 10 months, topun-
ish him for all the offences he had ever

his execution, only regretted that the

the following account of curious cause in
which he was employed last year:
"A woman, living apart from her

was not aware Of the existence of the
first husband. The woman, not agree
ing with J. c. left him also, aud soo2
married third man, named NJ. r. who
had never heard Of either of the former
husbands. After some mon:hs, howeE-
err, NJ. r. was informed of the marriage
with J. G. but was still ignorant of any
former marriage with the first husband.

made demand upon J. c. for board.

suit against J. c.. On the investigation
it appeared that, though L. o. was alive

he had died before her marriage with

rlage with ]. c. was considered null and
