Phenix gazette. [volume] (Alexandria [D.C.]) 1825-1833, 1828-12-01

Mr.. Ham il,on's Marlborough dinner
speech, and the disunion threats OF The South
Carolina de~magogues, are beginning 20 as,o'
nish and alarm, no, only the friends Of the pre-
sent Administration, but even the moderate OF
the Heroites, Some Of the latter, with feelings
mol remotely allied 10 those which agi,aied the
breast Of Macbeth, after the murder OF Duncan,
ask now that the "deed is DONE" if there are
any fearful consequences likely 10 result, from
it. We do, indeed, hear the owl'hootings
and raven-croakings of Hamilton and McDuf>
6e; we have seen the insolent threats of Duff
Green about "rewarding friends and puaishing
euemies;'' we have marked The zeal and off,
ciousness with which a Military Chieftain has
e.poused the cause Of the popular idol-all this
we have Witnessed; but if a dark shade Of Tore
boiling has ever crossed our minds, II has ale
ways been partially chased away by our yet
strong confidence in public virtue, and by the
reflection that our humble aid has been exert
ed TO the very las, 20 aver, the catastrophe.-
Come, what come may be ours the glorious aim
Of standing or falling with the CONSTITUTION OF
The country.

The ship Julius Caesar arrived at Philad ell
Phia, brings Liverpool dates to the 2ls, Oc,o-
Der. We give below the news by this arrival.
The repOr, Of The Russian defeat before
Shumla, is amply confirmed.
RUSSIA AND TURKEY.-The contents OF the
french papers Of Wednesday are of considera-
Die Importance. The intelligence which they
supply from the seat Of war in the east, though
neither derived frcm official authority nor
'''snglhened by precise dates and cireums'an-
"', confirms the general statements previously
;ttei'sc Of the repulse Of the Russian Army
'et.re Shumla, and the disasters Df its re'rea,
'o"ards the Danube. Indeed the absence ol
al Othcial notices from The Russian command
rs, sufficiently proves the certainly OF the fall
s'e, and the extent Of their losses.

rasiS, Oct. l5.-We have received from Blu
SSEA's', the following letter, dated the 26'h OF
september.
loe news which we have just received from
"e Theatre Of war, confirm every thing which
%s oeen announced for 'his week past, respects
%s me movements OF The Russian army oefore
S"0mia, aud its retreat. The Russians, in or
81 Cover the corps which were retiring; con-
ra4eu 10 occupy some entertainments, but al
having bravery defended them, they evacu-
~ mem; probably on learning that the Grand
~ was marching by the road from AdrIan>
NPE 10 the relief Of Varna.
"usseln Bey has followed the remains Of The
III! rom Shumla on the road to Ba-ardjik,
detached another corps on the road to Sill

Phenix gazette. [volume] (Alexandria [D.C.]) 1825-1833, 1828-12-01

other accounts from Augsburg, Frankfort
and Berlin, are still more DISASTROUS; they re
present the retreat OF The Russians as rapid
and dlsorderly. A convoy Of hay had arrived,
out had been Immediately consumed, and as
long as 1t lasted the horses Of the cavalry and
artillery were fed with -four, but even that re,
source IT said to have failed; and the mortality
among The horses was SO great, that only four
thousand mounted cavalry remained out Of the
whole army to protect its retreat. Some az.
counts, indeed, go so far a. to assert that the
whole OF Wittgenstein's army had disbanded
itself.
We have no Intelligence from Varna later
than the 2ist, but every body infers that it had
not fallen at a much later period, because, if it
had, the Russians would have been glad TO
have published it as a kind Of set off agalns,
the retreat OF the army from before Ckumla.
The success Of his arms may naturally be
supposed 10 have increased the pretensions Of
the Sultan. The Conslanrinople articles say
that he will not listen 10 any overture for me-
gociaiion till the Russians have repasscd The
Danube and evacuated the PriDcipalities.
The Turks have been successful in several
sortIes from Giurgevo, on The Danube. They
eNince a military skill which the Christian
powers have hitherto been far from iinputing
10 them; indeed, it is now said that there must
be Christian officers among them.
The Turks, as well as the Egyptians, appear
to be leaving the Morea. The Sultan appears
determined To resist all cxerrions to procure
his acknowledgment of Grecian independence.
Great hopes are entertained in England, that
the Catholics will receive emancipation. 1t is
said a bill TO that effect has been laid before the
Duke OF Wellington, which he ~enli.cly ap>
proves, and thinks ri will be acceptable to eve
ry fair dealing and reasonable Catholic and
Protestant in England and Ireland, and il is
his intention to support it.
