The ship filled Immediately after she

that the Bristol had gone ashore, arrange
ments were promptly made by the under

passengers Capt. Schenck left here on
Monday evening with his schooner, to be
assisted by ten men in a surf-boat, but he
must have arrived too late to render any
assistance

GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.

AN IMPORTANT MISSION. We have
the pleasure TO inform our friends and CO.
AUDITORS in the Antl-Slavery cause, that
our highly esteemed sister and eminent
co-worker in this great moral vineyard,
Angelina E. Grimke, has engaged TO visit
different parts of the United States, with
the view of calling the public attention to
the important subject Of universal emanci-
patton. She took leave of her numerous
warm-hearted friends and acquaintance
in this city, on the l4lh instant, and pro-
ceeded eastward. 1t is expected that she
will visit New-England generally, previ-
Gus to a contemplated tour through other
portions Of the country. We understand
that her mission is connected with the OPP
erations OF the American Anti-Slavery
Society, and that it has received the sane
ton of that body. Yet it may not be i'm
proper to observe that the Female Advo-
Gates of Emancipation in the United
States are about to cali general Conven-
ton, 10 order to unite their efforts, and
concentrate their moral means, for the pro,
motion of this great and holy work.

EDITORIAL SUMMARY.

HEALTH OF PRESIDENT JACKSON
The Washington Globe of Nov 22 says
that President Jackson, two nights before,
was attacked with bleeding fromthe lungs.
He was relieved, however, by the appli-
cation OF the lancet, and was supposed to
be recovering. The Bellows Falls Jour-
nal has report, from the Albany Journal
of the 24th, ofthe Presidents death. The
correctness ofthis report we are inclined
to doubt, as the New York Express olthe
Goth says nothing about it.
1t is said that copper mine has lately
been opened in Bristol, R. l. Specimens
of the ore have been found to yield so per
cent.

public Thanksgiving. The proclamation
Of Governor Marcy is real Deistical af-

weeks past, either at the Bethel Chapel or

large number of Sailors attend; many OF
whom are pious and take part in the
meetings Several instances OF conversion
have occurred among this class of men,
There is also some tokens for good and
some waking up among christians, and
some tenderness and enquiries among sin

earnestly solicit christians abroad 10 re-

A protracted meeting has been held at
Springville, in this county, which was at

The following are among the resolutions

The following are among the resolutions
passed:
ON INSTRUMENTATION TO LAW. Re
sOtued That, as an association OF christian
churches, we view with grief and alarm,
the spirit Of INSTRUMENTATION to the law,
recently developed in many parts Of our
country and within our own state, in va
rious acts of outrage upon persons and
properly; that we, with one accord, feel
il our duty to frown upon all such pro-
ceedings, on whatever pretences, and to
bear our testimony against them as utter
ly repugnant to liberty, order, to sound
morals and christianity.
On TEMPERANCE. The committee
on temperance beg leave to report
That whereas many are saying that
temperance folks carry things too far"
we believe it abundantly evident they
have not carried them far enough; and
that to stop now would be to lose all that
has been done:
And, whereas drunkenness still prevails
to an alarming extent and as mutitudes,
among whom may be found protested
christians 1--WE blush to say it) are still in
the habit Of moderate Drinking" and
BY their example influencing our dea.
youth into the Oay Of destruction There
fore,
Resolred, That, it is the duty of every
christian, patriot and philanlhropist to
give all their influence in favor of this
cause, till Intem2erance is banished from
our land and the world. Accepted.
