u The persecution Of the Christians in Ash
attic Turkey is terrible. On the 18th ofOctober
an attack was to have been made on the Chris
tians at Liwno, and one actually did take place,
on the 18th, at Aleppo. A body of Turks and
Arabs fell upon the Christians during the night,
and a fearful massacre toek place. Few es-
capped with their lives, and such as did were
wounded. The Greek Bishop was among those
murdered. The Pasha locked limselfu up in the
fortress, and the troops did dot attempt to in
terfere. AT Monasta a ~fanaticaI dervish, who
professed to be inspired, killed Christian boy
of IA years of age, and a certain Giuseppe Tho
mase, an Italian emigrant, in the open street.

TO CONVERT CALIFORNIA
TO FEDERALISM.

That California 10 democratic, the, fact that
democratic senators and representative from

proof. Nay, we are informed that Gen. Taylor
has not even respectable party in California,
the whole administration being looked upon by
the people Of that Territory with distrust, TO use
no stronger term expressive of the hearty aver
sion they feel for it. We have been informed
that most desperate effort is 10 be made to re-
verse the present order of things in that flourish.
ing embryo State. We understand that whig
paper is to be established at San Francisco,
which is to be supported BY all the means and
Influence Of the administration, and all the aid
which it can raise from the whig party in the
Atlantic States. We understand the project has
been long in contemplation, and is now ap-
preaching a particular experiment. We learn
that Gen. Taylor and the heads of departments
have all subscribed sums Of money to promote
the success Of the scheme, and all the public Of.
fees have been required to subscribe for the pa
per. We understand that subscription book
for the proposed paper has been in circulation
sing TO commence the paper when 5000 sub.
scribers, at $40 each, shall have been obtained;
that the subscription. is headed by Gen. Taylor
and his cabinet, with 5000 each, except Mr.
Clayton, who subscribes $780, that distinguish
ed federal merchant of Boston guarantees for one
year salary Of $4,000 to the assistant editor,
who is also to have free ticket, through, to San
Francisco, and suitable room in that city for
an office, free Of rent and that A. NJ. Crane, Of
Richmond, Virginia, has been designed as the
principal editor, and an individual by the name
OF F. W: Rice as assistant. ~,
Such is the grand scheme, and such are the
means by which California is TO be converted to
federalism and to the support Of the administra-
ton. The hardy democratic pioneers, who
have conquered the country and brought it un.
der the jurisdiction of the Union, Will laugh at
the scheme when it comes TO their knowledge.
And it will be about as successful as the effort
af the administration TO convert Minnesota to
Federalism. J. We doubt if there is a State or

Our annals produce no instance in which an adj

DANIEL BOON.

Daniel Boon, the pioneer Of the west, 4Sas born
in Bucks county, Pennsylvania, in the year l746.
Early in his life his father emigrated to the state
of N. Carolina, aud it was probably there that the
subject Of this sketch acquired that love for the
wilderness which led him to his subsequent ad
ventures. In 1863, Boon made his first expedi
ton beyond the Allegheny mountains into Ken
lucky, Chen an unredeemed widerness) and after
innumerable hairbseadth escapes, removed his
family to Kentucky and made the first settlement
there. His life, for years afterwards. was an un-
interrupted scene of the widest adventure, the
principal features of which were his government
of the settlers, his multitudnous conflicts with
the Indians, his negotiations, captvities, escapes
and all other imaginable trials that would have
caused men Of less adventurous disposition to have
sought repose in the region civilization but which
made our hero the more fascinated with the life
he had chosen. In l77S, after Kentucky had be.
come popuous, Boon soughta new home in the sol
itude of Missouri, replying to those who question
ed him as to the cause ofhs leaving the comforts
by which he was surrounded, that " Kentucky
was too crowded." and that he wanted 5" elbow
roon." He died in 1918.

JEFFERSON AND THE BEGGAR.

While Mr.. Jefferson was president of the U.
States. his simplicity was equalled only by his
economy. The diplomatic agents Of foreign
Governments, on their introduction to him, were
often embarrassed and sometimes mortified, at
the entire absence of etiquette with which they
were received His arrival at the Seat Of Gov
eminent, and departure therefrom, were SO timed
and conducted as to be unobserved and unatten-
ded. His inhexibility on this point could never
be overcome, and he was finally permitted 10
pursue his own course in this respect, lndisturb-
ed by any manifestations of popular feeling
His uniform mode of riding was on horseback,
which was daily, and always unattended, In
one OF these solitary excursions, while passing a
stream of water, he was aocosted by feeble
beggar, who implored his assistance to transport
him and his baggage. He Immediately mounted
the beggar behiud him and carried him over
On perceiving that he had neglected his wallet
he as good humoredly recrossed the stream and
brought it over to him.
This act Of kindness which was indeed no more
than Christian charity enjoins although much
more than the most of us practice, was exactly
conformable to the transformations benevolence
OF the whole life of Thomas jefferson. No man
had warmer friends or deserved them BETTER
The civilized world paid him homage, as a states
man and philosopher; but it gratified him more
to be loved as man.-Rayner's Life Of Jeff.
