about to give. Pause, gentlemen, before you com

TUESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 8.

10 Since our last there has been but lit
tie foreign intelligence. BY the arrival of
the ship Clematis, Capt. Lowe, at Boston,
on the LIST inst. from Havre, Paris papers to
July 26 have been received, containing ac-
counts from Constantinople to June 26, and
by the packet ship Roman, Capt. Gurrell,
which arrived at Newly York on the Sd inst.
from Liverpool, papers from that city to the
29th of July, and from London to the 9th,
have been received.
The British and French Ambassadors have
been received with great distinction at Con-
stantinople, and negotiations have been
commenced relating to the pacifcation of
Greece. The Sultan, it is thought, may be
willing to recognize the new political rela-
tons of Greece, but will probably confne
the limits of the new government to the Pc
loponnessus and the Cyclades. Such an ar
rangement would exclude Athens.
The Russians, it is thought, will endeav-
our to push their operations beyond the Bal
kan, the present season. To succeed in this,
it will first be necessary to defeat Hussein
Pacha, who is at Burgas with $4,000 men.
That event would perhaps open the way to
Adrianople, and put new face upon the
contest.
The Able Mai, librarian of the Vatican,
who few years ago discovered large
fragment of Cicero's Republick, has lately
discovered some fragments of Sallust, Tao
titus, and Cornelius Nepos.
A dinner was given in July last, by the
Merchants of Liverpool, to Mr.. Maury, our
late venerable and highly respectable Con-
sui at that port.
We may soon expect interesting and per-
haps some decisive news from the East 81
Europe, and from South-America.

ITEMS. The laadatur laudato. which
is going the rounds of the newspapers
throughout the Union, purporting to be a
letter from the venerable Charles Carroll,
the last surviving signer of the Declaration
OF independence, highly commendatory of
the President of the United States, turns
out to have been written by grandson of
Mr.. Carroll; a young gentleman who we
believe was a few years since at the Uni
versity in Cambridge. Thus errour will fly
from Maine to Georgia before truth can get
up and put on her boots.
The Berkshire Star 8, County Republican,

MAPS. Except the railroad there is
scarcely any thing SO important for the le-
gislature to encourage as the construction
of a large and faithful map of the State
Our legislature has been exceedingly re-
miss, or rather quite inexcusable, whenev-
er the subject has been brought up. AT
one time an apology would be that the
State was poor, and we must wait tor more
comfortable times of ease and plenty; at
another, probably, that new map was not
needed or that more pressing and import
ant matter was under discussion. At any
rate the importance Of the matter does no,
seem ever to have been felt by the govern
ment though it has frequently been
brought before that body.
At the last session committee was a.

Specimens of .American Poetry. Mr..
Walsh has been reviewing this work in the
American Quarterly, using some severe crit

words, and to much waste of time and ink.
President Jackson has been seriously in
disposed; so much so as to be obliged TO
leave Washington for time, on secluded
visit to the Rip Raps, for the benefit of the
sea air and bathing. A writer from WASH
ington observes that the least fatigue pro-
duces an excitement that affects his head,
and that in addition he has complaints of a
dropsical character.
Capt. Parry has undertaken another

Mr.. Poinsett. The report of the death of

John jackson, who was appointed by the
President consul at Martinique on one day
and disappointed on the next, has addressed
a long and violent letter to the President on
the occasion. We know not which is most
disgusting the mode of appointment on the
one hand, or the virulent letter on the other.
The love Of gold is doing much injury in
North Carolina. The people in some Of the

out in search of this metal. A gold mine is
the greatest curse that any country can pos
