The Little Islanders, ‘BY JAMES Ww. 31 3. In travelling up the Mississippi, not many years ago, | was induced to visit a hutle island that dots that river, from a motive of curiosity, which, in the end, was abuadantly gratified. Here I found a set of people. worthy, in many respects. of being claes- ed asa fifth race; and who, asenredly, would not have escaped the physiological nomenclature of Biumenbach, had ies ever visited the region in on These people—(who, by the way, were mvly hospitable)—spoke a peculiar dialect— which, though not so-broad as that prevailing in some parisof England, was neverthelese of a char- acter torally dis vet from that of their continental ne ghbors; and, indeed, ofiered a mark by which any one who may have conversed with them for ten minnies at a time, would as readily recognise them in Kamschatka as on the sands of their own little island. ‘They were, moreover, as ‘distinguichable in member, joint, and limb,” as they were in other and mor? iinportant particulars, from the rest of the inhabitants ef that vast region—where every thing seems to partake of the dinmensum infinitum- que of Cicero. In features these peopie resemble each other so much, that ata distance it was no easy matter to distinguish them ; and, even when near. unless you were well acquainted with them, it often puzzles ‘ou to know Peul from Peter, or James from John, for “each seemed either.” This singular resem- blance extended evento the tones of the voice, and expression of the countenance, which were pre- cisely the same in them all, or with such slight shades of difference, that a person, meeting them severally or in different places, or hearing them speak at the sime time in different rooms, would believe either that his senses grossly deceived him, or that these people were posseesed of the power of ubiquity—of being here and there and every where, at one and the same moment. There was, in fact, a sort of family likeness running through the whole race—so much 80, and extending 80 completely to all their personal attributes, that I often wondered how they man and to distinguish themselves, one from another, and that “ the faculty of seeing things out of sight,” as Dr. Johnson (ia his Tour to the He- brides) gravely defiaes the superstition north of the ‘Tweed, called “second sight,” should not belong, of all people in the world, to these Little Islanders, and occasion among them more terror and confusion than ever did the new step, introduced by the Empress Josephine among the ladies of Paris. A very amusing and original character was pointed out to me among these Piorle at the time of my visit, a sketch of whom I shall reserve for anotner occasion. ‘Texas Tariff, Ax Act, supplementary to an Act, entitled “An Act to raisea revenue by impost duties, approved the 5:h day of February, 1810.

In glanci 1g over the harbor from one of the sur- rounding heights, { have been delighted with the prospect which it presents. Our vessels of war form a prominent feature in the view. The splen- did ship Delaware, which arrived three days since, the Siam, which came in’yesterday, the Potomac, the Concord, the Deeatur, and the Marion, which have been upou this station for some time, consti- tute a fleet which may well exeite feelings of na- tional pride. I question whether an equal number of vess f the game grade could be celected from any other maval power, which’ would present os handsome adisplay. They are all of them in fine order, and dofcredit to their commanders. The Delaware brought out Commodore Morris and the Secretary of Legation. The feeling which has ‘been produced upon her arrival is likely to have a very favorable influence upon government here, and to restore that friendly‘intercourse which I no- ticed in one of my previous numbers had been somewhat disturbed by the unusual course pursu- ed by the former,Commodore. Immediately upon the arrival of the Delaware she paid the usual com- pliment of satuting the fortress’ and each of the fo- reign national vessels in port, which were prompt- ly returned, aad soon aftexjtheir commanders called apon Commodore Morris,-and expressed the high- est admiration of the appearance of his ship I was gratified to see the good [ecling and spirit which was shown upon the occasion, and particu- larly with the courteous bearing of our Commo- dere, who omitted no attention to convince his vi- siters of the gratification he experienced in their courtesy. The next day he returned their visits respectively, and { question if another officer in our navy could have been received with more hearty good feeling, or preduced amore favorable im- pression. i It is but jastice to Capt. Storer, who as senior officer has had the command sinc- the departure of Commodore Ridgely, to say that he is quite a favo- rite here with all with whom he has had inter- course. The Delaware has b-ought out the regulations of the Navy Department, as established by Mr. Badg- er, making some ohanges in the uniform of the offi- cers, and other details, to more character and stricter diseipline to the service. I have been somewhat amused to see the rapidity with which whiskers, moustaches, imperials, &c. ‘e disap. peared, and oar officers have begun to assume the appearance of civilized beings. Some wry faces have been made upon parting with their favorite and highly cherished ornaments, but the order be- ing peremptory there was noalternative. There is some talk of addressing a letter of remonstrance to the Department, insisting that the officers have a right to look like babboons and ane if they choese—the opinion of the Secretary of the Navy to the contrary notwithstanding. This evening our American Minister will have a large and edlendid party, u on the occasion of the marriage of his fashionable daughter to a merchant ef Monte Video. Great preparations have been making for a considerable time, aud for more than a week couriers have been posting with letters of invitation and despatches relating to the grand dis- play. Ihave nodoubt it will be worthy of the oe- casion, and when I return, if my head is not too bewildered with the display of beauty, and the racdeur of Ametican nobility, I willtry to find leisure and brains enough to furnish you with a sketch, as it may prove interesting to some pertion of your numerous fair readers, to whom I say may God bless them, and I tenderto them my best wish- es that the same happy lot may soon await them all. Fredericksburg, Va. Farpeaicxseune, Va. Fr: 8, 1812. Mormonism in Virginia—Its astounding Progress— Persicution helps the G sspel. Mr, Benyerr .— As your journal seems to be the mirror which re- flects to the most distant parts of this country and the world, the mass'c.. intelligence collected from individual parts, mortification seizes upon me at not witnessing the moving events of our bright vil- lage chronicled therein. If you will allow one to inform you concerning the frolics of fortune, and the cabinet secrets of this place and its environs, I am the one that will do it. I will direct your gaze upon those in the broad path of honesty, upon those who glide about with noiseless step to gain unholy ends, and upon the stumbling of some impatient, ambitious fools, who in a tempest are thrown to the surface, bask in the sunbeam while the tempest lasts, and eink to dregs when it subsides; who, like an exhalation, rise aud vanish. There are some queer fish in “ them diggine,’” with some queer anecdotes "hanging to their tails, as evér Jaughed dull care away, or brushed the cob- web from the,brain. Ican relate but one event at present, which relatesto Mormonism. Thisis no laughing matter, as it touches upon religion, but it is our decided lion at present. Shortly after Christmas, a “‘ latter day saint” was invited by a Camelite to lecture in the church for the purpose of giving or receiving a straitening After a dozen exhibitions of his strength, they thought he became unruly, andon motion of Tho- mas Jenkins, one of the co-operating disciples, he was ‘axed to quit.” As is usual, persecution by afew is followed by the sympathy of many, and hislectures afterwards were attended by crowds. Though an ilhterate man, Mr. Jones" is a shrewd one, and possesses considerable knowledge of ea- cred history, and though some were confounded, and others were convinced, he labored some time without inducing any to adept his creed publicly ; but a few days ago the ice was broken by the'moral courage of John H. Bunting, Esq, who openly acknowle conviction, was baptised before a crowd of and in coming up out of the waters poured forth mptu like one inspired, which shot a thrill through the bosom of all whose felicity it wasto hear him.and had a tremendous effect upon the Camelites. Mr. Jones has been for some weeks previous speaking at the court-house. The Came)- ites have again lifted their mace against him, and on Saturday night, before a dense crowd, occupied the Mormons temporary nae 3 and, 1 from docu- ments obtained from our “ Extra Billy” in Congress, attempted to denounce his creed. But never did a warrior sell his life more recklessly, never did a bull calculate so rashly when butting against a lo- comotive, than did the Camelites in this instance againet the Mormons. Mr. Jones did not attend, but handed the castle key ‘o Mr. B. The mis- take of the Camelites was, that though they were aware of the giant intellect po: iby Mr. Bell, still thought he must fail upon such short ac- quaintance of so defenceless a cause ; but most la- minously and ably did he defend it, and in reply to some charges made upon him of having denied his religion, such bursts of eloquence, ‘and melt: hoped trom his lipe, as drove some scoffers out o the house ; and better would it have been for those who made the charges to have had upen their fore- head a coal of fire, than to have endured his scath- ing words, when they tnemeelves had denied the re- ligion of their fathers, and been turn-coats of every grade in organizing the Camelite church. Last week, Mr. J. preached in the Universa- list church in Falmoutin, and caused great excite- ment. Falmouth isa mile up the river, and is bet- ter known here as Hog-town, from K’s exhibi- tion of the different breeds of hogs at Scott’s corner. It isa small village, with only one church, and ex- cepting the various breeds of hogs, always kept on hand by Mr. K., has little attraction. There is no telling to what extent this Mormon excitement will go ; if a humbug, then are we most egregiously humbugged, but if truth, then you must rejoice to see the cause prevailing. > We have had summer days last week, and spring weather for weeks together, with no prospect for ice. The gals hete is very pretty. Joun Sarrn.

M’Cahen, Ne action bas yet been had upon the Resumption Bill, and will not, 1n all probability, for several days. The Senate has been engazed chiefly on unimportant business, except the Bank Bill, forthe past several days. A bill was reported in the Honse this morning, ing for a stay of executions between the Banks and their debtors, until the banks shall re- sume or go into liquidation. This bill passed a second reading and will, in all probability, pass finally on Monday We had quitea flare up in the Hous yesterday on this question, between Thaddeus Stevens, the reat leader of the anti masonic party, ard Co!. §rCahen, cratic ‘representative from the county of Phil jae Mr. Stevensinthe course ot his remarks assailed the majority of the House, denominating them the federal party, and insietin that he was the representative of and acted wit the only democratic party ; and as usual, in a very cool and apparently pleasant manner, made some very happy bits The Col, replied to described what he believed were the p and attributes of true democracy. He democracy was, it sanctioned —its practi reanits was the dissem truth, the maintainance of virtue and ism, the protector of the equal rights of all mankind, and the ecuricy of the sacred right of suffrage from fraud and violence. Then, said he, if these are acaong the principal features of democracy, b can he [{Mr. 8] assume the name er ar himself one of its principles, in view of enor- mous frauds: and other treasonable acts of 1538, in which he [Mr. § ] so largely participated, and which had induced the people to place upon him and those with whom he actrd, the plain, broad, La never to be broken seal of their disappro- tion Mr, Stevens replied. He had occupied so much time in replying to the arguments of gentlemen,that he had not tume to hunt up vermin, (Laughter and cries of “order,” “order.”] Mr. M'Cahen followedin a most bitter and sar- castic specch, of which I find myself unable to give you asketch. He would notice the creature because he bappensl to be a representative here, and although he [Mr C.] had been denominated vermin, the one 80 denomi: ra bee not secre that castigation whieh he so richly deserved. The representative from Adams could not bear the thrusts of the sword of truth. He[the Col ] could bo-st as pure a heart and a better name than he (Mr. 8. ] could dare to.do ; and the corrupted and infamous crawling reptile, [cries ef “order, order’ and “go on,” “go on,””] from Adams could not avoid him, although he, had [Mr. 8. left the Hall much discomfi.ted] cowardly crept out of the Hall,know- ing that truth was terrible to him, and if he tarried he wonld hear it. The Speaker here called to order—the House cried “go on,” “go on,” and some minutes elapsed before quiet was restored. Mr. Stevens did not re- turn to the House for so: e, but when he did every person present was fied that he kad re- aA the severest rebuke he had ever experi- enced.

Mr. W. moved that when the House adjourn on Monday, it adjourn to Wednesday morning, Tuesday being the anniversary of the birth of George Washington. Mr. Looms rose to debate the tesolution, when, under the rule, it was laid on the table. Mr, Situ called forth, consideration of his re- solutions in relation to Banks and Tosurance com- panies, submitted by him a day ortwo since. The resolutions were adopted. Mr. Loomis submitted a resolution, that on and after Wednesday the House shall hold afternoon sessions. Some one rising to debate it, the resolu- tion lies on the table for one day. The House then went into Committee of the Whole on the bill in relation to one day élections. In relation to the tim: when the polls should be held open, Mr. Loomis moved that it be amended, 89 that in cities they should be Opened at suprise, ani in the country at any time betwee: sunrise and 9 o’clock, which after some debate was adopt- ed. Several minor amendments were adopted, and n ore rejected. A long debate ensued om an amendment part of the bill defining the qualification oe as faras residence was concerned. [t was a strict- ly legal dis 0, relating almost wholly to con- stitutional points. It is proper to remark that the debates that have occurred on this bill, have tend- ed greatly to develope the great legal talent, re- sonra and acumen contained in the present ouse. After a protracted debate, the committee rose and reported progress. The papers and remon- strances, onthe files of the Hous relation to the Dutchess County Bank, were, motion of Mr. Townsenp, sent to the Senate, where the eubject is now under discussion. ‘be House then adjourned.

The new state officers have generally, entered int discharge of their duties, and appear to give ral satisfac tion, so far at any rate. _ Ita ig to notice the great suspicion and jealousy is evinced by the country members of the Assembly, generaily, towards every thing coming fromthe New York delegation. The New Yorkers, it must be confessed are, somewhat prove to dictation, and assumption of superiority, espe- sially where democratic principles are considered as being involved, and are rather apt oecasionally to imagine that the city of New York is the whole State. Their locefocoism is too ultra, too rabid, if you like, for the timid notions of men who have pass- ed it may be the greater part of their existence, in some quiet country town, far removed from the sweep of the violent and giddy eddies of the politi- cal woptpoal. Thus it is that we often sep them astounded and even shocked at some ultra osi- tion from the New York delegation.
