The eloquent, impressive, and very appro-
pirate Grafton, pronounced in Richmond on
Wednesdayla last, by Governor TYLER, as tri-
butte 10 the memory OF the illus,rious JEFrER-
son, will be found on the opposite page. We
regret the want Of room for the entire ceremo-
MES. They were imposing, and peculiarly well
adapted to the melancholy and great occasion
John Sergeant, Esq. of Philadelphia, has con-
sen,ed TO deliver in the Hall Of Independence
on he Gath inst an Grafton on the death Of
THOMAS JEFFERSON and JOHN ADAMS. The
Hall is to be lined with black, aud the arrange
.ments in other respects are to correspond with
the magnitude Of the object.
aIr. Murphy, of North Carolina, is engaged
in writing History Of that State. The Cape
Fear Recorder states, that he is-preyented a.
present by sickness from prosecuting his un-
deriakmg, which is looked forward TO with
tories Of nearly all the states, which will be In
valuable to that adventurous author, who, at
some future period, may undertake general
history of the United States.
Buenos Ayres papers to the Cd OF May have
been received at Boston. They contain very
little interesting matter, and nothing of political
Importance Don Manuel Moreno had been
appointed Minister Plenipotentiary TO the chi
ted States; and MIR. Saratca, Charge d'Afaires
Of the Government Of Buenos Ayres in Lon
don, had been promoted 10 the dignity Of Mi
Mister Plenipoentiary at the same Court. Don
Manuel J. Garcia declined accepting the APP
pointmen, of Minister PlenipotenIiary to the
Congress OF Panama, which was offered TO him.
The CHILEAN Squadron purchased by the Bue-
nos Ayreans, had actually sailed for the La Pla-
IA from Valparaiso, underline command Of Ad-
miral Guise, consisting of three frigates, three
corvettes aud four briggs.
By the arrival Of the Packet ship Bayard, at
New-York, in forty days from liavre, Paris
dates to the 3lst Of May, inclusive, have been
received. They afford nothing important
The proposition Of NJ. de Noailles, which al
our last accounts was pending before the Cham
Der OF Deputies, for an allowance to the French
Consuls in The Levant Of sum OF money, to
redeem Greek captives, was rejected by great
majority. Out oil 500 present not more than
SO rose in its favor. In the course OF the dis
cussion (which was curious,) Nj. de Villele, in
opposing the proposition, said, in relation 20 the
l.rI0 md IN
evils that are deplored, and will obtain that pa
cihcation which seems so much desired; the
Cabinets Of Europe have not been so indifferent
10 the interests of The Greeks as orators have
proclaimed venture 10 declare this much
Napol and Athens are both menaced by the
Turks and Egyptians. There is reason to hope
a portion of the garrison Of MisSolonghi es-
capped This hope is founded upon the solici-
tude of Ibrahim to prevent any communication
with the coast Ibrahim had, according to the
Journal des Debats, given orders TO kill all his
prisoners and even nnarmed peasants, in order
s,o complete the number ofsx thousand heads
and pairs Of ears, that the Sultan had ordered
him TO send to Constantinope. Il appears he
could not make up his number at Missolonghi
II appears saws the Austrian Observer, that
Ibrahim's intention is TO CONVEY his troops to-
wards the isthmus Of Corinth, by ascending the
gulf of Lepan,o. Thence his army mayjn two
or three DAYS march, reach Napoli de Roman
ia and commence the siege, while the fleet pas
sing round the peninsula, would undertake 10
blockade it. The Seraskier will it is said
march upon Athens and inyest its citadel, COM
bnng his operations with those Of the Pacha
Of Negropon, The position of Napoli howev-
er is so strong, that it will no, easily be carried
The citadel is imprcguable and can only be
reduced by famine.
A rumour is circulating in Paris, which II 1t
prove true, will soften the regrets ofthe oalam-
i,y of Missoloushi. The greater part OF The
garrison is said to have succeeded in penetrat-
ing the assailing army, and saving the women
and children that accompanied them. This
precious remain of an heroic population had
arrived at Salona.

Pope, Of Boston, died suddenly on The 9th oil

The death of Canaris, by cannon bail, IN a
naval engagement, s. the failure OF the attempt
10 iuyes; the fortress Of Carababa, by Col Feb
