[Transtated from the Constantinople cdrre- Pondence of the Nouvelist de Marsellaise, for the Eveniog Star | : fi As soon as If: B.-M_S. Cyclops anchored in the roadsted of Djedda, her commander, Capt. Palien, sent an officer on shore with letters to Namik Pasha, Governor of the Province of Hedjaz, and of the city of Djedda. In each of these letters he demanded, in energetic lan- guage, the immédinte execution of the crimi- nals lieated. in the massacre of the Chris- tians, which took place on the 15th of J last; and threatened, in case his demands w not complied with, to commence, forthwith, a bombardment of the town, which would not be suspended until satisfaction was granted, or every house in the place retluced to ruins. _ To this notification he received the reply that Namik Pasha was absent, and, as there was po one in the city who understood the English lan- Saage, it was impossible to ascertain the impert of the despatehes be had sont. This was evi- dently a i as there are a number of East Indians in Djedda, who are conversant with English. Capt. P. was now convineed that his mission would be successful only by the employment of force ; but as he desired to offer the authorities ample opportunity to escape the consequences of an attack upon the town, he sent a second message to the Governor, and the officer who bore it was accompanied by an in- in crder that the former excuse might be avoided. This was to the effect that if his terms were not acceded to within thirty- six hours, the bombardment would commence. The answer was similar to that reviously re- turned, viz: « Nothing can be done until the arrival of Namik Pasha.’’ At the expiration of the thirty-six hours, further communication having been recei from the shore, the Cyclops moved slowly anehored, with sprin; side bearing on the were stationed at the no ved and cables, with her broad- evoted town. Her men uarter guns, which were loaded and run out, a poche: was pre- ; Pte for immedi. action. Captain Pullen, jowever. still desisted from Proceeding to ex- treme measures, and sent another message to the Governor, asking him to point out the buildings belonging to the Turkish Govern- ment, that a might be spared. The Gov- ernor decii: i to give any reply. except to estate that Namik Pasha would iat be in ke and until his arrival he could do nothing ‘Thus four more hours were passed, on board, meanwhile, chafing with impatience, as they gazed upon those walls 30 reoently reek- ing with innocent blood Captain Pullen final- ly gave the orderto fire, and the bombardment commenced and was kept up slowly but stead- ily. The instructions given to Capt. P. were executed literally, he evidently main- ta ned a slackened fire, hoping every moment to receive signsof submission and acquiescence in his demands. The Governor remained stub- born, however, and this unresisted bombard- ment was continued during two days. 4 Soot P. had previously notified the authori- ties that be would allow no boats to leave or enter the port, but some hours after the bom- bardment commenced, a number of fanatics, fully armed, crowded into some barges and ulled toward the Qyclops. The steamer’s ae were immediately lowered and remained near her, awaiting the approach of the barges, bat the courage of those the latter contained appareatly failed when th y came within the range ofthe Cyclops’ guns, aud they hurriedly returned to the shore and scrambled up the beach. Some fifteen or twenty large boats inoored near the shore were sunk. (n the sec- ond day of the bombardment a battalion of Al- banian Bashi Bozooks, sent by the Porte, ar- rived, and the Governor sent to ask permission for them to land, which uest was granted. As soon as they had rendied thuahere they were seen to rush into the town. among the fallen and falling buildings, and pillage indi:criminately all they c>uld ley hands upon, regardless of fly- ing bullets, bursting shelis and erumbling wali». The whole population, together with « large number of pilgrims from Mecca, had left the city aid were assembled on tke hills in its rear, witnessing, with yells of exesration, the destrne- tion of their houses, which they had no means to prevent or power even to resist. At the close of the second day's bombagd- meat, Namik Pasha notified Capt. Pallen of his arrival, but stated that he could not have an interview with him until the next day on account of excessive fatigue. On the following day, the Ist of August, the interview was ac- cordingly held on board the Cyclops. Namik Pasha spoke French fluently and a little Eng- lish, but Capt. P. knew not a word of any lan- gasee saye his own. Mr. Calvert, H. B. M.’s ice Consul at Alexandria, was on board the Cc a, however, and acted as interpreter. Namik Pasha protested very energetically against the high-hended acts of Capt. P., and stated that although he had the culprits in prison, he must necessarily decline their execu- tion inasmuch as the Porte had not delegated to him authority to order capital punishment. The prisoners, wou'd, he said, be sent to Con- stantinople for trial, &c. Capt. P. informed Namik Pasha, in reply, that the instructions of his Government were le the bombardment until the crimi- hed On hearing this Namik a storm of wrath, and swore by the he goad beard that it was ashame for England to seek to destroy an unresisting town; and that he felt justified in using the means of res stance he possessed, which con- sisted of some sixty pieces of artillery. Capt. P.’s answer to this threat was to the effect that the Pasha might do as he pleased as regarded resistance, for the menace was known to be vatn bravade, as the guns on the walls of Djedda were placed there in the early days of turkish dominion over those remote regions. Most of them were destitute of carriages, a: those that were mounted were in such a dilap- idated condition as to scarcely bear handling. Namik Pasha landed, and the bombardment was continued, but the balls only spent them- selves in crumbling piles of ruins ; br. by this time, few buildings were left standing. On the 24 of August, the Turkish steamer Gabari ar- rived in the port, having on board Ishmael Pasha, Commissioner Extraordinary of the Porte, and five hundred Egyptian troops. The fire of the Cyclops ceased, und Ismael Pasha landed at the head of his five hundred troops. After a short interview between him and Na- anik Pasba had taken place, the latter sent information to Capt. Pullen that be consented — him every satisfaction in his power, by order the execution on the morrow of eleven Prisoners who were known to have been parti- cipants in the massacr: of the 15th of June Oa the 34 of August, the eleven prisoners were led out on the beach and their heads cut off im the presence of the Egyptian troops, Bashi Bozooks, and fifty marines landed from the Cyclops. Ahisdetachment was commanded by two officers, and four boats from the steamer. each baving a howitzer on board, were moored close to the shore, their crews being fully armed. ~~ of the ste: r were also . in readiness to fire on the first sign of play. Waen Captain Pullen carried from Djedda. in June last, the survivors of the massacre, he obtained from them the names of those who were foremost in the slaughter of the Chris- tians; but he recognized the names of onl three or four individuals of those executed. ‘Mence, it was evident that the ringleaders had escaped. Before the execution each eulprit was asked his name. The exedution wastruly a borrible tragedy, as the sabres, execu- ~~ tioners were dull, and shoulders were dreadfull and rolling to the feet of the ish soldiers, begged for mercy: offering at the same time to e full developments of the conspir ae hi ies = nae ii = march « i, tiane. is life was . je was silenced. however, by he executioners.

ADAMS. The Worcester Transcript has been farnished with the following copy of a letter, written in 1813 ~ tee elder Adams to Thomas Jefferson, never before published - ss Qverscr, July 12, 1813 Dear Sir :—I forgot, in my last, to remark a Very trifling inaccuracy in yours of June 27th. The letter intercepted in Hitehbourne’s trunk which was reported to glance at Mr. Dickenson was not in 17/6. It wasin the month of June 1775. Had it been June, 1776, the English would have printed it. The nation had then too maturely reflected on the necessity of In- dependence, and was too ripe and too hot for a Proclamation of it. Neither Mr. Dickenson nor any of his Friends would have dared to ex- press the smallest resentment of it, out of their shed, ose circles. The Penns, the Allens, the Chews and the Willings, in other words, the Proprietary gentlemen of Pennsylvania, I mean those of them who had not ran away to the English, would have been si The Quakers, instead of producing my Letters, and reading them and recording them in their General Meetings, and holding me up to the detestation of their whole society, as the most odious of men, aiming, or at least, having in contemplation the Possibility of Independence, in any case whatsoever, would have concealed and dissimulated their hypocritical cant. The Pembertons, (even Israel.) the Drinkers, the Shoemakers and all the rest, would have been silent. The Spirit would not have moved one of them to open his lips. In June, 1776, my Friends would not have put on long faces and lamented my impru- dence Noneof them would have wondered, as some of them did, in 1775, that a man of Forty Years of Age, and of considerable Ex- perience in business and in life should have been guilty of n. Others would not have said: ‘It was a premature declaration of Independence,”’ and Lee 5 soon afterwards private of General Washington, and, after that, Governor of Penn? sylvania, would not have said to me, as he did, “I look upon the Interception and publication of that Letter, as an act of the Providence of God to excite the attention of the People to their real Situation and to show them what th : ou say “it has been hoped, I would leave such explanations as would place every saddle on its right Horse, and replace on the should of others, the burthens they shified on yous. ng oli by whom? They know not what they hope. T have, “already, replaced on the shoulders of’ Franklin the burdens he shifted on mine. Shall I replace on the shoulders of Washington, the burthens that 2 bastard Bratt of a Scotoh Pedilar, placed on his shoulders and he shifted on mine. How many Geuntlets am I destined to ran? How many Martyrdoms must I sutter? Be they more or less, I have enjoyed Lfe, I would not sashange Lie or kortune with any one of them. There are few Men now living. if any, who know more of me than you do. Yet you know but little of the Life [ have led, the hazards I have run, or “the light efflictions for & mo- ment’ I have endured I will conclude this grave solemn Letter with a merry Story; but, as true as it is iverting. in my Youth I was acquainted with one of our New England Nobility, Representative, Counsettor, Colonel, Judge John Chandler, of Worcester, of whom I could tell you twenty humorous and instructive Anecdotes. He had great Influence in our Legislature. Upon some occasion, there was a complaint against him as a Justice of the Peace, in the County of Worcester. He arrived in Boston and the Counsel sent for him, and interrogated him end threatened him. When he came down from the Counsel Chamber, one of bis Brother Representatives asked him “what can the mutter be?’’ ‘‘God damn them,” said Chand- ler, “they talk of uncreating their Creator.’’ If you do not understand this and wish an ex- planation, you shall have it.
