English High Church was also jealous Of
American encroachIncnis IN the midst Of a
sect s.il veneraiing Episcopacy, and an al
diiional frebFand was thrown into the coun-
try last autumn in the person Of the Rev.
Mr.. Badger. Buring last winter the plriies
the American, the Pusoyile, and the Ro-
man Catholic-have waged an open warfare
amongst themselves. The Americans, who
had been first in the field, only acted on the
defensive; the influence they had already
acquired among the HISTORIANS enabled
them, without much difficulty, TO retain their
position. The object Of the two remaining
PARTIES was TO eject the Americans and to
establish their own influence. They did not
actin concert, for their mutual enmiiy equal
ed their hostility TO the Americans. No
means were left untred to effecttheir object
A report began TO prevail that the Americans
were assisting the HISTORIANS 10 build forts
in their mountains. The ignorant Of the
surrounding country and their Governor, the
Pasha Of Mosul. readily believed the asscr-
tons; his suspicious we're excited; from both
parties he received accusations against their
respective adversaries tending TO increase
his alarm. Mr.. Badger pointed out the dan
er of Roman Catholicism and French infu-
ence in the mountains; the French, in return,
the danger of English influence. At length
the combination we have described was form
ed, and those alone who were innocent have
fallen victims to the intngues of men who
announced themselves TO them as the minis
tiers Of Christ and the teachers Of civilization.
Strict justice compels US to state that the A

They established themselves first in the
mountains, and their efforts were successfully
directed to the Improvements Of the inhabit-
ants, without any ulierior political design
But, as il is, one Of ihe most ancient and
most interesting sects in the world-inicrest-
ing fromits origin, from its language and from
the purity of It's Christianity-has been sacri-
feed to the religious quauels of American
Independence, English Puseyites, and French
Roman Catholics.
Letters received in Boston state that il is
probable the mother and only one brother OF
Mar SHrasoS, the HISTORIAN Patriarch have
been slain; that three other brothers have
been taken prisoners, and two have fed 70
