ting despatchess They were the only persons who had the honor ol being seated; for, according to the etiquette of the vice regal court those who re- ceived the Nizier's pay were not allow ed to sit down in his presence.
 :" Un my entrance, his iiignness mo toned me to sit beside him, and through the medium of the interpreters began some commonplace courtIy insignificant cies, as prelude to more inter interesting tin s conversation. h his manners l found him free and af1able, with a eonsldera- ble tincture of humour and drollery. Among other questions, he inquired if 1 had wife and being answered in the negative, he replied to me himself in Italian, that l was a happy man, for he found his very troublesome, eof5i- sidering their probable number this was not unlikely. Pipes and coffee were in the meantime served. The pipe pre- sented to the Yizler was at least ttwelye feet long: the mouth piece was formed of single block of amber, about the size ofan ordinary cucumber, and fasten- ed to the shaft by broad hoop of gold, decorated with jewels. While the pipes and coffee were distributing, musical clock, which stood in niche, began to play, and continued doing so until this ceremony was over. The coffee was literally drop of dregs in very small china cup, placed ina golden socket. His Highness was served with his coffee by Pashaw Bey, his generalis simo, giantwith the tallcrown of adun- colored beaver hat on his head. In re- turning the cup to him the Yizier ele- gantly eructated in his face. After the feggale of the pipes and coffee, tie atten= dants withdrew, and his iiighness began a political discussion, in which, tho ma king use ofan interpreter, he managed to convey his questions with delicacy and address. On my rising to retire, his highness informed me, with more polite eondeseension than Christian of thousandth part of his authority would have done, that during my stay at Tripoliza, his horses were at my com nand, and guards would accompany nc. to any part of the country ] might choose to visit. Next morning he sent a complimentary message, importing that he ordered dinner to be prepared at the doctors, for me and two officers. The dinner surpassed all count and reckoning; dish followed dish, till be- gan to fancy that the cook either expect ed ] would honor bis Highness's enter tainment as Cesar did the supper of Ci- cero, or supposed that the party were not finite beings. During the course of this amazing service the principal sing CTS and musicians Of the seraglio arrived and sung and played several pieces of very sweet Turkish music.o

THE GRAND yIZIER.


 z In the afternoon. about four o'clock. sat out for the .seraglio with Dr. Te- rlano, the Nizier's physician, and the Aiziieess's Italian Secretary. The gate oi the palace was not unlike the en- trance to some of the closes in Edin- burgh, and the court within reminded me ot Smithlield, London, but it was not surrounded by such lofty buildings. nor in any degree of comparison, so well constructed. We ascended a narrow staircases where three or four hundred ot the Fizier's Albanian guards were iounging. h an anti-chamher which opened from the gallery, number of officers were smoking, and in the middle. on the floor, two old Turks were seri- ousiy engaged at chess. My name was sent n, to the Vizier, guard of cere- mony was called, and after they had ar- ranged themselvesin the prescnce-cllanl- Der, was admitted. The doctor and the secretary having in the meantime taken oil their shoes, accompanied me to act as interpreters. The presence chamber was about forty feet square, showy and handsome; round the walls were placed sofas, covered with scarlet cloth. In the farthest corner of the room. elevated on crimson velvet ensh- Ion, sat the Vizier, wrappedina pelisse !: on his head was a vast turban. in his vest was dagger incrusted with jewels. and on the little finger of his right hand. he wore solitaire as large as the hob of the stopper of vinegar cruet. and which was said to have cost two thou- sand five hundred pounds sterling. Tn his left hand he held small string oi coral beads, comboloio. which he twisted backwards and forwards durino the greater part of the visit. On the sofa beside him lay pair of richly or nanaented London made pistols. Ai some distance, but not on the same sofa sat Menet the Pashaw of Napoii Ro. mania, whose son was contracted in mar. yiage to the Yizier's daughter. On the floor, at the foot of this pashaw. and on. posite the Vizier, secretary was wri.

 THE BATTIF-GR

THE BATTLE-GROUND.
 twill be nineteen years on the 7th ol next month, since the combined forces of the Northwestern Indians under the Shawnee Prophet, brother of Tecum- seh-were defeated by the U. $. Troops under Gen. HARRISON. The battle Ground lies only few miles above La fayette on the Wabash, near the Proph- cts town-a region which was then un- tanned, and where the Indians had been undisputed lords from time beyond tra- dition. This bloody battle was princi- pasly fought before the dawn on the morning of the 7th Nov. ISIl. Dur.
 ing that day and inc succeeding, the American forces remained on the bat tie held-interred thier dead, and pre- pared for return down the Wabash, which was commenced on the 9th. A few days after the departure of Gen. Harrison and his gallant army, the rout- ed Indians returned to the field to their oyerthrow-tore our killed from their graves, scalped them, and left their bones to bleach on the open plain. And according to the Kentucky Gazette, of that time, the Indians buried their own killed in the same graves where our honored dead had been deposited The bones of our Countrymcn laid whi- tening, scattered over the field until a few wears ago. At which tinn Cant Huntington of Terre Haute, with com pany of young men, revisited the bat tie field, partially collected the bones of the fallen, and inhumed them in a diff ferent place from their original deposit.
 Soon after the return of the veteran HARRISON from South America. we were informed of his determination to revisit the field where his valiant follow CTS fellicollect all their remains and er- ter them with appropriate honors.

Benefts of Notwithstanding the hundreds oi battles which have been fought, the hundreds of thousands ot lives which have been lost, and the hun- dred millions of treasure which have been squahdered away in the contests between France and Britain, 1t would be difficult to point out any importaat advantage which either party has ga.a- ed to compensate fol the loss of ali ali eilis blood and wealth. Their relative pc sitioa Is exactly the same that 1t was three hundred years ago. They have alternately lost and gained few colo nies scarcely worth retaining, and wi4:e;A. have indeed, generally been restored as the price of peace; but no permanent advantage has been obtained by either party. Their power is so well balanc- ed, that neither of them can ever hope to gain the aseendency, though they may reduce, and frequently have reduced each other to the verge of ruin. 1t is rathersingular, that even in the last war. the French and the English, in spite oi aIl their victories, were the two powers who gained the least; the Russians, Prassians, and Austrians, all came out of the struggle with an accession ofter- ritory, while the French lost ali that they had previously obtained, and the English added five hundred millions to her national debt.

ted by friend, arc not unworthy of con- sideration.
 We are often in the habit of speak ing with disapprobation of the manner in which the fragments of time are iIii- ed up by our females when they meet in the social circle. 4 custom prevails in some parts of our country, whoseu- tility, it is presumed, no one will be dis posed to question. itis this: Wheney- CT company of young ladies meet to while away the tediam of a dull after- noon, some one of the circle or some gentleman is requested to read to the company from en instructive or enter taining book, such as the first periodi- calls of the day, while the remainder are employed with needle. Remarks are then alternately made byy byy tic company upon what has heen read, the subject, the author or any thing connected there with. How intellectually and pro6ta- bly time thus spent may be, must appear obvious to every thinking mind.

To smooth the bed Of pain, to calm the ear With music, and to melt the soul with love-"
 .4aofs.
 One of best criterions by which the civilized and enlightened state IS dis tinguished from the uncivlized, is the rank and influence which womanis per mltted to hold and exert in society. In the one she is made the partner and c. qual with the man in all the social and domestic relations. In the other she is considered the inferior, the slave-in- deed, only to administer to his necessi- ties, while he sleeps away his existence in idleness, orriots uncontrolled in wan tonness and pleasure. In the former, she is the moulder of the public man. ners-gives order and symmetry and beauty to the public character, and in the station of mother, by the education andmanagementofhe herchildreE becomes the source of immense good or evil to the nation. And 1t IS a remark, as uni versaily true as the extent of the hu- man race, that in proportion as female influence and character are lightly es- teemeds in the same degree are sunk public taste and morals and manners.- Certainly nothing speaks louder in fa- vor of the dignity of the sex, than for woman to hold her proper station in so- ciety where she can impart her refine ment and taste and delieacy of feeling to those around her-giye high, nor al and enlightened tone to public senti- ment, and smooth off the coarse edges of character contracted by man in his mingling with the rough-and-tumble of the world.
 To maintain with suitable dignity the rank and influence to which she is just y entitled, something more must occu- py the attention of man than mere fash ion and dress and outside show. Of all "God's last best giits,n pretty. del- icate, fashionable, ,overrefned lady, with out taste and mental culture is. to man of judgment and cultivated understand ing, the least acceptable. Nothing is great and lasting and will endure when the fashion of the world passes away and the pleasures of time sicken, that is not connected with mind.

The revusion this has created in public sentiment towards this lady, though 1t may not be entirely just, Is perfectly natural. We had all seen with sympathy the sor- rows of that wife for whom the most ardent affections had been entertained by deyo- ted husband Tn the pians care with which sine seemed to gather tip every relic of his virtues ffaiaie, thought we per ceived a love that would survive the selfish ness of the longest life.
 Bnt after his journals and his poems. his sermons, and his life have been, one after the other, given to the world, after the e. recting of this splendid mansoleum to his memory, and the widow had gained her full share of profit and of praise, for having been the companion, the wife, the biogra- filer of sucit man, we hear of her second marriage to some obscure Greek Count, whose very name the foreign journals have been unable te discover.
 Who would believe, although 8 few short years had lnteryened, that the author of the beautiful lines written in India" :" could, amidst the accommodating praises of the world, and the constantly recurring images of his worth be so soon forgotten! If thou vert by my side, my love!
 How fast would evening fail
 In green Bengala's palmy grove,
 Listening the nightingale.
 If thou my love. vert by my side.
 My babies at my knee,
 How gaily would our pnnace glide
 Ger Gunga's mimic sea-!
 miss thee at the dawning grey,
 hen on ouf deck reclined,
 in careless ease my limbs lay,
 And woo the cooler wind.
 miss thee when by Gunga's stream
 Ny twilight steps guide,
 But most beneath the lamps pale beam
 miss thee from my side.
 spread my books, ny pencil try,
 The lingering moon to cheer,
 Out mss thy kind approving eye,
 Iny meek attentive ear.
 But when of morn and eye the star
 Beholds me on my knee,
 feel, though thou art distant far,
 Thy prayers ascend for me-
 Then on. then on. where duty leads,
 Ny course be onward still,
 Ger broad Hindostan' s sultry meads.
 Der bleak Aimorah's hill
 That course, nor Delhi's kingly gates, Nor wild Midway detain,
 or sweet the bliss us both awaits,
 By yonder western main.
 Thy Towers, Bombay gleam bright, they
 say,
 Across the dark blue sea,
 But neee CT were hearts so lipht and gav.
 As then shall meet in thee.
 But unsiappily for the credit of the hu- man heart, the subject of these sweet lines has proved herself but too indifferent to she deep, deep feeling which inspired them. The Niobe late < all tears" has made the funeral baked meats serve for the wedding dinner!'' And most probably the American publishers of the Bishop $ fife Will find out that the profits of their philanthropy, are to be remitted to some of the nameless islands of the Egean.

During this perplexing confinement, he was occasionally visited with 2 S'look i.5,' by Turks, who very significantly in- dleated what punishment they thought to be awaiting him. 0ne of these true believers was particularly punctual in such aeEi i!y ,ai! so;ss.d Dc enter the room, and stand before the prisoner, grinning, and drawing his fore-hnger from ear to ear, till he supposed the .1nglishman fully sensible of his mean ing.

To this, howey- CT, he would not consent but persisted in going to Acre, accompanied by ali escort: and there he obtained leage to visit Jerusalem. still under an escort, which so diligently attended him, that he was unable to see the principal at fractions of the place, and also prevent cd from travelling in Syria. He re- turned to Cairo, and gave full account of the issue of his attempt, from which he had been persuaded by his friends But he was content; he had seen Jeru- salem, and Edina's dinners were secur- ed.
