There are from 60 to 70,00O souls on the islands, who, unless assist ance be.speedily rendered, must perish.

Completion of he Ohio Canal.-We congratulate the friends of internal im- provcment, both in and out of the State, upon the completion of the Ohio canal, from Lake Erie 10 the Ohio ri- Yer at Portsmouth, with the exception of one lock on the right margin of the Scioto river near that place, intended only to be used when the Ohio river is at is lowest stage of water, and which will not materially affect the navigation If the canal; and tllat this joyful event is 10 be celebrated at Portsmouth, on Friday the l2th inst.
 The completion of this canal. by the almost unaieied exertions of this state, within the short period of seven years, presents one of the most astonishing moral spectacles which has eyer occur red in the civil history of this, or any other country. Without .asts ;.ccumulat- d revenue, and without any other re- sources but the soundness of the public credit, this young and enterprising state has consummated a great public work. in the 29th year of her political exis- tence, which, for its magnitude and public utility, would do honor 10 the oldest and most powerful empire in Flu rope, The lasting and substantial be- nefi!s of which, will be felt through all time to come, by every member of our l Federal Union, IS well as by the foreign bordering states which lie North and 1 South of us.

The information contained in the fol- lowing letter from Buenos Ayres, is confirmed by others from respectable sources in that city. The recent prose- #eution, or rather persecution, of an American minister of the Gospel for an alleged infraetien of law in rela- ton 10 the solemni2ation Of il marriage. is an evidence of the present feeling oi that government and people towards our citizens, and those who know the Buenos Ayreans well, are prepared to see that act followed up with similar testimonies of i'll will on their part, up- on as slight pretexts as the one just mentioned. One letter received yes terday. mentions that the Eamons Ad- miral Brown had applied 10 the Bucnos Ayrean Government for two of its schooncrs, in order 10 attack and cap- tare tite United States sloop of war Lexington, then. lying in the riyer!- Should the atlampt be made. of which however, there can scarcely be any pro- bability, the Admiral will find that

SoUTH-CARoLINA ELEcTIoN.--Ihe C. lection for members of the legislature of this State was held on the Sth and 9th ut, In Charleston district, the "State Rights and Free Trade' lalias nnIlif- cation) ticket was wholly carried by an average majority of i3O or 40 votes, over the es Union and States Rights 7 ticket. The contest was exceedingly animated.
 The numerical force of the Charles ton delegation G6) in the house of re- personalities will, probably, give to that body a majority favorable to the doctrines of notification, as the major ity was at the last session-the political character of the Charleston delegation then being as ii is now.

Our sefaole couatry.-The annexed is last number of the New England Maga zine, upon the state of the Union:
 Let the American who distrusts tue excellence of our political institutions. whose heart trembles not al the thought of change--let him go to Europe let him look at the distressed and the conyulsed England-let him cross to the distracted and unhappy Ffanee-v let him penetrate still further into the regions of tyranny, and look OH gagged Italy, and on bleeding Poland--lel him but breathe few months the atmosr Pherc of despotism-and he will hurry home, blessing God that his lines have iallenin pleasant.plaoes.
 In the name then of all that is dear. and ali that is patriotic, by the tolls and blood of our fathers, by the sacred interest unborn generations, we con- urc all America to beware how they allow the sanctuary of our political in- stitutions to pollutcdby unholy hands, We are of no party, we have no inter- est at stake on any question: but we love our country beyond any earthly love: we trcmbie at the slightest peril which threatens if; and we shuadcy. 10 tmnk that artful and unprincipled men may so far act on the honest prcju- dices and feelings of the many, as t0 indunetbem to sanctionmeasures,which are fatal to the purity of our institu- tions.
 That there are such men, and that they are party leaders, we feel a melans choly certitude; men, who for the ac- complishment of d party, or personal design, would not stick al pcrilng the palladium ofour liberties, and jeopar- dizing the reputation or the interests Of our country; and we hardly know how 10 put down the yengetul feeling, which would prompt us 10 instant and violent action. We heidsnci persons in great CT horror than the robber or the murder CT; and if there arc beings who would be lightly punished by long life of scornand misery, and an eternity oftor- mcnt, it is those who knowingly and wit tingly cndanger their country, 10 ad- vance their own ends.
