RUSSI A.-Letters from Berlin, of the last
of August saw that all private accounts from
Russia mention great movements am. lg the
troops; and that levy en- masse oe the Don
Cossacs is spoken Of Witgenstein's army in
Bassabaria is by some affirmed to be placed on
the war footing. The writer's remark that al
though these reports are probably not exact,
vet the movements indicate something uncom-
mon; and are perhaps owing to the i'll success
oftf.c army in Persia. Thus we have again to
suppose the first accounts from that country
correct. We observe however, that the Aus.
trians are to have an army ri observation to
watch the Turks, ard that Russian Squadron
of very considerable force is fitting out in the
b ack Sea; so that there is room to hope the
military preparations may be designed for CO.
operalson in better cause than the Persian

were not known. Captain Hamilton had re-
manded an audience Of the Pacha, and he re-
port was current that he had made an official
commune alton Of the intentions Of the Allied
Sovereigns, and represented TO the Pacha the
danger to which his fleet would be exposed in
passing the Morra. Tina, audience, however,
does not appear to have interrupted the militia.

accounts, was 10 set sail during the last week

A writer in tho Journal, very justly complains
Of the encroachments which are daily made
upon the side walks, in the most p%opulous parts
Of Tho town. A friend Of ours a few days since,
had a new surtout ruined in attempting to pass
some oil casks which were placed upon the side
walk, in South Watcr-strcet, and many Of our
citizens have made complaints TO us Of a similar
nature, with a request that we would notice il
in our columns. There is a special law of the
town to prevent these cncroachments, and we
hope the proper authorities will see that it is
enforced.

YOUNG KEAN,

We stated, a few days since on the authori-
ty of the London Times, that the younger
Kean had made a complete failure, in his first
attempt at Drury Lane. This does not appear
to be the case, as will be seen by the following
letter, published in the New-York Spy:
"You are doubtless anxious to learn the re-
suit Of Master Kean's debut at Drury Lane,
which | promised in my last; but, ere | proceed
to give it, l will let you know something of his
personal appearance. The bills say he is only
eighteen years old, which, Notwithstanding INV
general want of faith in their assertions, l most
cordially believe; and I should marvel much if
it were proved he was more than sirteen.-
Ills figure is extremely graceful, and more full
ly developed than usual in youths; his arms
and legs are as elegantly formed as he could
wish them; he is about four or six inches taller
than his father, with a countenanco that very
much resembles him, although the features are
rather ~harshcr; the form of his mead, and ex-
preston of his eyes, are beautiful, his face does
not exactly belong to the Roman school, his
nose beng small and peaked. his cheek bones
high and sharp, and his chin protruding and
pointed. And now you know ms much about
his person as if you had seen him, and 1 will
endeavor to throw as much light upon his per-
formancc. He was received with the most tu-
m~ultuous applause, by a house as crowded as it
possibly could be, and delivered the opening
speech with more judgment and effect than
could have been expected from a "trembling,
youthful candidate for fame" and particularly
the latter part Of it, when he had gained more
confidence, and the "frstlings Of his fear"
had a little abated. The quarrel scene with
Glenalvon was well conceived, but his voice is
yet too weak for the imprisoned parts; his
taunt, die l not fear" &c. and the sarcastic
reJoinder, didst thou not hear" were evil
IDENTIFY in imitation of his father. The last
scene with his mother, was good, especially
the delivery of 9" the villain came behind me
but l slew him!" which was also much in
the same style. After the descent OF the cur
tain, there arose a loud call, intermingled with
a few Kisses, for his appearance, and after the
lapse of few moments. he was led forward by
Mr.. Wallack. and the play announced for rep
etition amidst almost unanimous applause
He has since repeated the character four
times, with as much credit to himself as profit
to the manager, it being estimated that the re-
ccipts have been about EI400."

Co Honest confession. Mr.. Gist, a member
of Congress from South Carolin,, who has so
uniformly voted for his colleagues in opposition
10 the principal measures ofthc administration,
in a lato circular TO his constituents made the
following candid confession:
81 do sincerely believe that the principal
leaders of that party (the opposition) are q ctu-
ated, not by a view to the public interest, but
to turn the other party out Of office, to divide
the leaves and fishes, and honours of office.
They abuse the Administration to raise them
selues into power and honor, with no other
view than their o,on promotion. If these men
had the power, I should not expect a better
administration from them than the present in
cumbcnts; for such men are not to be dependcd
OH for the public good"

MIR. Hill, editor Of the New-Hampshirc Pa
triot, is to deliver a Jackson Address at Concord.
on the 9Th Of January next. II is to be printed
and circulated gratuitously, in all the towns in
the state. We wish Mr.. Hill would publish at
the same Time, "a new edition Of Mr.. Wood-
bury's dcfencs of.Nr. .Adams'4 All ofJuly %oraiion,"
and have both prolu ,tions circulated together.
and, add as an Appendix 10 the whole, some cx-
cellent articles which Mr.. III. wrote in 1891 in
favour of Mr.. Adams election If Mr.. Hill
should object to publishing those articles, he
might add as a substitute, lhe substance of a con-
versation he had about The sane time, with Mr..
Davis of Boston, when he expressed so much
anxiety to make arrangements TO ensure the SUE
GEES Of MIR. Adams. We have no doubt either
would be acceptable to the people, although il
might not place the consistency of MIR. ii. in the
most favourable light.

Mr.. Crawjord.-Tbe Augusta Chronicle, in
speaking Of the members who voted against the
appointment Of MIR. Crawford us judge Of the
superior Court Of Georgia, says: The fact i,
the vote against Mr.. Crawford was dictated by
no party feeling. II originated from a thorough
conviction Of hi, u~nftness for the Office, and il
one half Of his intelligent friends were asked the
question and would answer it candijly, they
would say that he is NOT qualified TO dl,chsrse
the duties Of The Office. Great delicacy has
heretofore been manifested towards the infrmi.
ties Of Iii, man by his political opponents. and il
disclosures are made, painful TO his friends, they
may thank themselves for il.

Gov. ~SHULzE.-It now appears more than
probable, than Gov. Shulze of Pennsylvania
will be The Administration candidate for tie
Vice Presidency of the United States, al the
approaching election. The Pennsylvania Jack
son presses have already commenced the most
violent and unwarrantable abuse of his Excel
lency, and denounce him as an apostate and
tory. These hot-headcd editors who, a few
weeks since, called him the best of mon, now
threaten him with political destruction, unless
-
he comes out for Jackson, and openly avows
his hostility TO Mr.. .Adams and his Cabinet.

Latest from England.-The packet ship
VIM. Byrnes, arrived at New York on Monday
last from Liverpool, bringing London papers to
November 9th. The New-York Evening Post
of Monday, gives the following articles of news
from these papers.
Advices from Modon, to the 9Th ult. states
that on the 3 tn Sept. Ibrahim Pacha ordered
two strong divisions Of troops TO march from
Navarino by land, despatching at the same
time, by sea, 80 ships of wal, with Is Transports,
loaded with provisions TO Patras. Having heard
that Lord Cochrane was in those seas with his
large frigate, a corvette aud 20 small briggs of
war, Ibrahim Pacha embarked in person on
board a sixty gun ship, accompanied by an equal
force, six frigates and six briggs, and directed
his course towards Cochrane, with a full deter
mlnation TO attack and board his ship whcrev-
or he might find him.
Cotton Market, liverpool, Vou. Sin
consequence of the public sales announced for
Friday, the private transa ctions wcro limited.
OF about 1000 bags offered by auction, chiefly
American descriptions, there were sold 1000
Bowels at s SD TO 6 3-Sd per l. for inferior
to good quality; 1900 Alabama, at d LIZ TO s
5 7-8d; $50 Orleans, at 8 5-8 to 6 7-S for infe-
rior to fully good fair. The lower qualities of
American, went about l-Sd per Id. below the
prices previously obtained, but the better de-
scriptions maintained the former prices.

lbrahim Pacha had been detected by Admiral
Codington, in two attempts to send provisions
to the fortrcsses in the Gulf Of Lapanta,
"Missolonghi and Patras are in great want.
After the Armisticc was first concluded, the
English feet as well as the French retired from
the waters of Navarino, excepting only a ffig-
ate Of each nation which remained TO watch
the Egyptians in that port. The Admiral, who
was at Zante, was soon informed that 43 ships
had sailed; and with the line ship Asia, and
three frigates cut them of and refused to let
them enter the Gulf. He even had to resist
them, and after a few shots they thought best
TO retire. Ibrahim was irritated, and soon after
embarked himself, taking fourteen more ships
with him, Tin all sly pretending that the armis-
tice extended only to Hydra.
He was met, however. and by dint of re-
monstranccs and n few shots in his hulls, con-
yinced that he had better return. Admiral
Codington appears TO be a man Of high spirit.

could 10 prevent further calamities TO both
sides; but that he had a strong disposition TO

Females at Washington.-We extract the
following, from a letter from Washington, pub
lished in the New-York Enquirer:
"Common report says that more wives of the
members arc present this session, than on any
preceding ore. Fer several years past, this
fair representative body has been gradually in
creasing and including daughters, first, second
and third cousins, they are now nearly as nu-
merous as the popular male branch. Several
engagements took place last winter, and much
skirmIshing is expected in the drawing rooms
during the present. The milliners, mantuamak-
ers, and rouge-sellers have laid in large stores
for the winter consumption. Nothing will be
done in the fashionable way for some weeks.
Ladies from cmote districts, generally require
a week or ten days. to burnish up their faces
call forth their smiles and polish their fore.
heads. The boarding houses arc all crowded,
for this is The general mode of living here
Politics have a visible effect in domestic ar
rangements during the present winter. We
have Jackson boarding houses and Adams
boarding houses there are, indeed, few ncu-
trails. In New-York, you would laugh at the
ridiculous lengths to which this is sometimes
carried on"
