| LATEST FROM EUROPE. By the arrival at New
York of the packet ship Florida, in 80 days from
Liverpool, we have London dates to Aug. 81, and
Liverpool to Sept. l, inclusive.
On the 2Sth August Parliament was
prorogued to Oct. Both, when it is expect
ed to be prorogued to some day between
the 18th and Goth November, then to
meet for &C despatch of business"
An improved state of weather had al
layed the alarm about the crops, and
prices of bread stufs were rather on the
decline.
Nothing defnitive is received from the
Russian head quarters, except that there
had been several days hard fighting be-
fore Shumla, which still held out. The
Turkish bulletins represent their own
arms to have been successful in the same
affairs in which the Russians claim de-
cisive victories.
1t is said that the object of the Emper-
our Nicholas in proceeding to Odessa,
where he arrived Aug. 9Th, is to meet
Lord Heytesbury and other diplomatick
characters, to form a Congress on the
subject of Turkey, or in other words, they
are to try by remonstrance or persuasion
to induce Nicholas to relax his purpose of
destroying the Turkish power in Europe.
GREECE. Considerable speculation
had been excited by the sudden departure
of Admirals Codrington and De Rigny
from Corfu, with a considerable. naval
force, towards the close of July. The
French expedition to the Morea was ex-
pected to arrive there the latter end of
August.
The French troops it is said will meet
with some resistance. Six thousand
Turks are said to occupy Eubea and the
Acropolis. Patras, Coron, Modon and
Navarin are garrisoned by Turks.
RUSSIA AND TURKEY. No official
information had been received in London
from the head quarters of the Russian
army, since Aug. 25. Meantime de-
spatches had been received at the foreign
office, the contents of which had not
transpired down to the evening of August
Both, and hundred rumours were ahoat.

made upon the Turks before Shumla.
headed by the Emperour Nicholas in
person. After good deal of hard fight
ing, the Russian bulletin says, being re-
pulsed on every side, the Turks withdrew
under the walls of Shumla. After this the
Emperour left the army for Odessa. On
the same day, there was some fighting at
Varna, the Turks having attacked the
right wing of the Russian army besieging

SOMETHING NICE. The following ex-
quisite morsel is an extract from the pro-
spectus Of paper about to be established
in Cheraw, Is. CO. by gentleman, candi-
date for the Legislature, and who, it is said.
has lately made speech in the same STYLE
of ehaste and elegant diction. We are in
clined to think, from its frothy nature, that
the celebrated orator Emmons must have
strayed into that part of the country in some
OF his pop-and-ginger-beer- peregrinations,
and that he is about to receive the reward
in that quarter which he in vain sought in
Boston. The appropriate marks of admira-
ton are by writer in the Charleston Con.

The Worcester Yeoman states that a
meeting of citizens of this county was held
in that town on Friday evening last, at
which the nomination of the administration
ticket of electors was confirmed This
could not have been, of course, anything
like general meeting, no notice to the cit
zens at large having been given. In other
Congressional Districts general meetings
have been held, and we are not without hope
that one will be held in our district, which
shall be answerable to the importance of the
occasion, in accordance with the request
contained in the following notice. This
notice has reference to the nomination of a
candidate for Representative to Congress
as well as to the subject of Presidential
Electors. 1t is desirable that delegates be
chosen from every town in the district, that
the convention may be respectable in point
of numbers, and be better enabled to express
the general sense of the citizens.
ADMINISTRATION CONVENTION.
The friends of the National Admins
tratlon in the several towns comprising
Worcester North Congressional District,
are hereby requested to appoint Delegates
to meet in Convention at Adams Hotel.
IN Westminster, on THURSDAY, the
10th day of October current, at one o.
clock, P. NJ, for the purpose of making
arrangements for the approaching Presi-
dental Election-and to nominate some
person as Candidate for Representative in
the next Congress.

a recent occasion, particulars of which APP
peared in your last Gazette. That whatever
,oas done aOas not intended, and that what
was not done acas intended, is somewhat
difficult to unravel, but in strict accordance
with what has been done, let the publick de-
eide the mystery.
CAMPAIGNING. On Friday week our village re-
ceved visit from the StO,r Light Infantry under
command of Capt. ABRAHAM CoNAET. This corps
made very martial appearance; and the precision
with which their evolutions were performed, bes-
poke great attention and good discipline. After
spending short time here, they, with the Concord
Light Infantry under Capt. JARVIS, marched to the
south part of Lincoln, where both companies en-
camped for the night.
1t has been limited to us, that our Stow friends
were offended at something which occurred in this
town touching the escort duty otths we have, how
ever no personal knowledge. Besides as we our
selves belong to Marine Corps ian Engine Compa-
ny) we cannot be supposed to understand much a.
bout the nice points etiquette in the land service
Yet we hazard nothing when we say, that whatever
was done and whatever was left Undone in the way
of escort, the intention of Concord Light Infantry
was to receive their military guests with all becom-
ing military respect and hospitality. But whether
this intention manifested by strict observance
of all those punctios of etiquette to which military
characters always attach mysterious importance,
wholly unintelligible to mere worlds people like
ourselves, we do not undertake to decide"
MUSTER AT STow. Under the auspices
of brilliant sun the Sudbury, East-Sudbu-
ny, Boxboro, Marlboro, and Stow companies
of the line, the Washington Guards, COM
manded by Capt. Abraham Conant, the
Marlborough Rifle Guards, by Capt. Merrick
Phelps, the Wadsworth Guards by Capt.
Abel B. Jones, the Groton Artillery, by Capt.
Jno. Boynton, and the Cavalry by Capt. Le-
vi Warren, assembled on Tuesday at Stow,
for military duty and inspection.
Brigadier Gen. Rutter, accompanied by
Maj Butterfeld, Brigade Inspector, respec-
lively reviewed and inspected the troops and
expressed their unqualified appreciation of
the soldier-like appearance, department, and
discipline ofcach corps. Emulation in mill
tary tactics seemed to be the order of the day,
whilst courtesy and friendship pervaded
every rank. Spectators beheld with min
gled pride and satisfaction the social quali-'
ties of private life blended with the sterner
requirements of the soldier, and departed
with the conviction that in such constituted
power they may safely repose the protection
of national honour and the maintenance of
acquired reedom.-CoMMUNIcA

DRUNKENNESS. Ifthere is any thing which
is of sufficient force to arouse those in the
daily habit of swilling rum, until their sem
SEES are entirely drowned by this loathesome
draught, and to prevent the future degrade
ton of themselves far, very far, below the
brute creation, by disgusting drunkenness,
we should think it would be the perusal of
the following paragraph from the New-York
Observer -
INTERESTING TO DRuNKARDs. In the latter
part of July Samuel Wager, about 10 years Of age,
was found dead at Chester, N. J. sitting with his
back against the fence in state of putrefaction,
and covered with worms-haring in one hand a
rum bottle and in the other the cork HE was an
old veteran in the service, and had destroyed vast
quantities ofintoxicang liquor-that cruel enemy of
man. He was not without his reward; for he reach
ed the highest honours to which the drunkard
aspire, viz the poor house, and to die drunk, I'M
lamented and alone, in the open field exposed to the
ravages of vermine-a sight too appalling for hu-
man nature What encouragement to the thousands
who are following the same steps,"

THE VARIOLOID AND SMALL POX.

The following communication, from one OF our
most scientific and intelligent Physicians, contains
information which will be very acceptable to our
citizens at this moment, and will allay the fears OF
many who have become alarmed by the few cases
of the Variolod disease which recently occurred in
the city, but against the spreading of which suitable
measures have been adopted
| Messrs. Gales s. Seaton As there appear to be
considerable excitement in the public mind on &C
count of the appearance Of a few cases of Small
Pox, or Varioloid disease in city, and much in
quiry excited as to the nature of the disease in
question: and the prev entive power OF vaccination,
take the liberty to make the following statement
of facts, which, It'll believed, fully sustained by
the experience of the most eminent physicians of
the present day, in Europe and this country.
LIST. The small poG is disease produced by a
specific morbid poison, which poison, when it
operates on the human body, produces, in all
constitutions, and under ali circumstances, near
ly the same symptoms, and similar effects.
Cd. Nearly all persons are susceptible of the in
Auence of this virus, but in different degrees /;
hence. some persons take the small pox from the
slightest exposure, and others resist the intlu-
ence of the virus, except under particular circum-
| stances.
/ Sd. This principle Of susceptibility OF the small
pox is exhausted by the action of the virus on the
i system, and, as general rule, persons can have
j the disease but once. There are, however, nurne-

rous exceptions to this principle. From the ear
Hest days of the prevalence of the small pox,
cases have occurred, in which persons have had
the disease twice but in no instance more than
twice.
4th. The susceptibility of the system 10 the ac-
ton of the virus of the small pox, being, in con-
siderable degree, exhausted by the first course of
the disease its second course, it is comparatively
mild other things being equal.
9th. When the susceptibility Of the system is once
exhausted, it is never restored, and the person is
ever aierward secure from the disease.
9th. The parioLoid disease is modified form Of
the small pox, presenting the same phenomena, and
is in all respects governed by the same laws. tits
produced by the virus Of the small pox, acting
a system which has previously been affected with
small pox, OF the kline pox.
18th. The virus of the kline pox, by acting, on
the human body, exhauss the susceptibility OF the
system to the virus of the small pox, and as gene
raj rule, persons can have the kline pox but once;
but there are numerous exceptions to this principle
Many persons have had this disease twice, hut in
nc instance more than twice. and where they have
had the disease twice, they have never afterward
been affected with the small pox.
| The practical differences from the above facts,
are
LIST. That no person should rest satisfied with the
security he derives in having had either the snalf
poX or the kline pox, once only. he slioulu eoh-
tnue TO be vaccinaed until he has had the disease
second time, until, by repeated trials, he finds
the system longer susceptible to the action Of the
virus
Cd. That, although from recent occurrences, III
this country and in Europe, the confidence OF ndi-
vituals in the virtues of the kline pox may have been
shaken facts abundany testify that vaccination still
stands ON an equal footing with inoculation as se-
curty to the human race, against the ravages OF that
dreadful disease, the natural small poy.
Its therefore, most earnestly recommended to
our citizens to practice vaccination with unrenltt'ng
diligence, as the most etfectual means OF externi-
mating the small pox from among US, and preventing
its recurrence hereafter. L.
