The burlesque of Blue Beard proved an ef ficient ealety-valve for_the escape of suppressec langiter, and went off with explosions of merri- ment: though not comparable in point and elegance with those by Planche, there are some capital hits ia it, which Bland as Blue Beard, and Oxberry a: Shickaback, made tell with ludi -rous effect. At the New Strand, Mr. and Mrs. Kerley have been repeating their favorite methods of keeping the house in_a roar; which, however oft repeated, never fail. The Medical Students, irregular dog: as they are, have not kept their appointment with the public: they have been knocker-wrenching in stead, we see by the papers, and narrowly escaped a dinve on the tread-mill,which they well deserved. —Meanwh le, Mrs. Keeley has got among the wax dummi s of Madame Tussaud’s exhibition, and set them walking and talking, by pretending 10 be a matd-servant frightened at the “‘dollies,” as she cails them. Certainly Queen Elizabeth, not withstanding her glass-eyed stare, looked very like Mrs. Keeley, who was asleep behind the curtain ; while Bonaparte was an odd mixture of Napoleo: and Mr. Corrie, Mrs. Keeley’s fellow-servant,— zh the Emperor moved and stared like a verit- able min of wax. The conversation of these de- parted Sovereigns is amusing from: its incongruity ; and the admixture of Wax and Wonders is a comi- cal iece of mystification altogether.

France, Atnine o'clock on ‘Thursday sresing, the 1th sstant, the grand deputation of the Chamber of D-om ies presented the address of that assembly to th: King.

I would wish to thank every inember of the Chamber individual- ly; those acknowledgments would be a consolation, for me, ifeny thiag could console me for the loss of such a son.” “ the same day the King received letters of cond lence on the occasion of the death of the Duke of Orleans, from the King of Pragsia and the King of Sweden and Norway, from the Queen and King of Portngal, and the Grand Dakes of Tuscany an Mecklen! arg Schwerin, Saxe-Weimar and Meck- leaburg Strelitz, and the Duke of Nsssau.

Spanish stock fell one-half per cent on the Paris Sourse on Friday, and again on Saturday. This ll was attributed to the alleged increasing diffi- ulties of the Spanish treasury.

Mr, Washington Irving addressed the following peech to the Regent, when presenting to him his credentials :— ‘ “* Thave the henor of handing to your Highness, as Regent of the kingdom, a letter from the Presi Jent of the United States of Ameriea, accrediting me as Eavoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipo- tentiary to this court.

It is my ardent wish hat Spain, under her present consygutional form of soverument, and geverned with fiftanees, wisdom, ind patriotism, should enter a new era of prosperity ind glory. Your Highness will permit me to express ‘he great pleasure which I personally experienced ai reing charged with a mission, the eole object of which shall be to strengthen the mutual aad cordial sood understanding existing between my country nd a nation for which I ever professed the highest esteem. 3 The Regent replied: ‘‘I am happy to receive the assurance of the good wishes of the President of the United States towards my Queen and country ( share the sentiments of the successor of the illus- ‘rious Washington, and feel deeply interested in his lory, and most ardently desire the consolidation of the liberty and glory of the United States. I am ikewise delighted, sir, that you should have been chosen to convey to me the wishes of your govern- nent.” Advices from Madrid of the 8th instant mention that acommiasion of senators, deputies, and capi talists had met to examine two plans of loans, hav- ing for their object to raise money on the 120,009,000 reals remaining of the 160,000,000 of royal bonds. One of these plans proposes to give only 80,000,000 for the 120,000,000, the other but 60,000,000, or one valf the amount, the remainder to be paid in pro- tested bills of the government. Barcelona was ranquil on the 9th instant. We find the following in the Madrid correspond- rnce of the 9th:— “The ministry are actively employed in the organ- ization of the various plans of political reform. Re- jorta are in circulation that some conspiracies are forming against the government, but no one appears to doubt but that the government is vigilant and trong enough to defeat all the plans of the anarch- ists; but the authorities have in all parts been ad vised to use the greatest vigilance, particularly on hose points from which danger is apprehended. Che Spanish troops contiaue to concentrate on the frontiers of Portugal ” The East. The Augeburg Gazette of the 5th instant publish- +s accounts from Constantinople of the 20:h ult. They state that considerable reinforcements were then on their march to Bagdad. Two regiments of infantry of the Imperia! Guard embarked for Smyr- 1a on the 19h, under the command of Mustapha Psha. They were to proceed hence to Damascus, where Nedschib Psha, the new governor of Bag- 1d, was to join them 3000 men. The Pasha of with Aleppo had also been directed to form a_ junction with those troops with all his disposable forces,and rnce united, the three corps were to march in the lirection of Bagdad. The two regiments of caval- ‘y of the guard and the artillery were to proceed wverland to Samson, and thence to Bagdad through Koordistan. A regiment of infantry was advanc- ing in the same direction from Sivas, and a regi- nent of cavalry from Angora. The Parha of Mos- sul was also on his way thither at the head of 10,000 irregulars, and was to assume the command- iachief of the army. India. Bomzay, June 18 —Our latest dates from Jellala- bad are of the 27th May, at which time General Pol- lock remained pretty much as formerly. He was :bout to move to anew encampment, five miles from his previous one, which had become sickly, chiefly, 48 it appears, in consequence of the multitude of dead carcasses strewed around it. The army were pretly well off for provisions, but without money or means of conveyance. It was generally rumored ten days since that the order for the retirement of our troops had been issu- ed. Idoubt whether Lord Ellenborough has actu- lly issued the order, but I have no doubt whatever that he will do so very speedily. If the prisoners were once in our hands, our armies would be on their way to India without any delay. They must be so indeed, at any rate,'in the course of three manths trom the present time; unless they mean to brave the horrors of another Afighan winter; this they will not dream of. There have been no movements of troops on the Bengal frontier of the ee since last month. The joint force of Generals Nott and England, now at Candahar, amounts, in all, to 10,000 men. On the 21st May, Kelat-i-Ghilzie was attacked by the enemy, 4,000 strong; they were bravely repulsed by the garrison, leaving 100 dead upon the field. A strong body of the enemy were believed to be ad- vancing on Candahar, and General Nott proposed to go out and meet them about the 29h. Major Reid’s convoy nad been ordered to C usice from Quettah to Candahar, with camels and provisions, about the 10thofJune, Every thing is quiet and peaceable in Scinde.

A fright- ful hurricane swept over that part of India on the 3d and 4th inst., occasioning a considerable loss of life and immense damage to the shipping. Two fine teak vessels—the Vansittart and Corn- wallis—have in the course of the month been burnt atBombay. They were full of cargo and ready tor sea, and their destruction appears to have been the work of incendiaries Carovrta, June 8, 1842—Our armies have made but little [progress. Tne much talked-of “ advance upon Cabool” has noteven been commenced, and now there is more said about the withdrawal than about the advance of our forces. Orders have been sent to General Pollock, at Jel- lalabad, and to General Nott, at Candahar, to com- mence a retrograde movement; the arrangements have actually been cet on toot to assist their return to the provinces, by sending carriages, d&c., to meet them. The force at Jellalabad ig straitened for provis. ions; it has not carriage sufficient for the transport of suppliea, and it hos not supplies to be carried. In this emergency, a withdrawal from Affghanistan seems to be the only sate course Carriage is not procurable, the camels are dying off faster than they can be replaced ; and the provisions are consumed faster than they can be supplied. To advance upon Caboo! with less than two months’ supplies would be a rash and impolitic proceeding, and Pollock hes scarcely a sufficiency in store to provision his force for one month. There has been for some time past a loud cry raised in certain quarters of ‘‘On, on to the capital;” but they who cry the loudest seem least to know what we are todo at Cabool when we get there. I suspect that this has greatly perplexed the sagacious understanding of the Governor General, who is far too quick sighted and keen witted not to see the dif- culties which are hidden from the eyes of shallow politicians. f As I write this it is reported that Mahommed Ak- bar Khan has gained possession of the Balla Hissar, and by a successful ruse attract a host of followers to hiestandard. He had, Sailing Saisie negotiations iato which he hadentered with General Pollock for the release of the Sritish prisonere, removed his cap- tives from Tezeen to some place higher up in the hills, and then proceeded to Cabool, carrying with him Major Pottinger and Captain Troup. The sto rung that, having reached the capital, he proelaime: that the Briti: vernment had plegded themse]ves to establish him onthe throne, and that Major Pot- tinger had come with him in the character of a Bri- tich agent commissioned to reside at the court of the sew monarch.

Disclosure are now being made which tell a depldrable story of fraud and duplicity, forbid- Jing us ever again to speak with a clear conscience of the perfidy of the Afighans. Sir W H. Macnagh- ten’s death is now clearly shown to have been the ediate result of his own treachery. He had entered into a_“ plot”—the word is his own—for the betrayal of Ameen Oollah Khan, one of the chief leaders of the insurgents, with whom he him- self had previously been in treaty; and it was at the conferrence which had for its end the sacrifice ot this man, that che envoy waskilled by Mahommed Akbar. The envoy had conspired with Mahommed skbar Khan for the delivery into his hands of Ameen Oolah; and it wasat their conference, which terminated by the death of Macnaghten, that the last named chief was to have been betrayed into the hands of the British minister. The Khin, who t is now said, had no intention of betraying hi countryman, but had listened to the overtures o! the British envoy solely to test his good faith, al though the proposal made to him was, as regarded his individual interests, a most advantageous one, began to reproach Macnaghten with his dishonora- ble conduct, his too evident desire to over-reach the Afighans by any diplomatic trickery, however un- scrupulous it might be; and finished by summoning him to Durbar, there to meet Ameen Oollah and the other assembled chiefs, and to explain his con duct before them. Akbar Khan called upon, the envoy to mount a horse which had been providec tor him; the Oe refused to do so, and the Khan tragged or pushed him forward to enforce compli ance with his orders. Muacnaghten resisted, blow. were exchanged, and at last Akbar Khan, in a state of exasperation, drew out his pistol and shot the envoy. This is the story which has now trans- vired, and there is every reason to believe the true one; tor it rests upon the evidence of Captain Mack- enzie, who was present at the conference, and of General Elphinstone,who was well acquainted with the events which preceded and conduced to it This is a ead tale for an Englishman to narrate A few words touching the prisoners in the hands of Akbar Khan. ee have been carried off, as | have before said, to the hills north of Tezeen; but intelligence has been received from them, and they are ‘all well, and well treated.” They are said co suffer much,rom the cold, which even at that ad- vanced season, was intense; but nota Chae against their keepers hasyct been uttered. They have been treated throughout with the greatest con. sideration; they have neither been outraged nor in- sulted in any manner, and have suflered no more than the hardships which have been inseparable from their condition. Captain Mackenzie, who had been despatched to treat for their delivery, twice entered our cae at Jellalabad, and twice returned with General Pollock’s answers to the proposals of Akbar Khan. Itis feared that the negotiation will aot be brought to a successful issue ; but still I do not trembie for the safety of the Eiht! 1 firmly believe that in due time. they will be restored t their eae and their friends. So much for the barbarity of the Afighans. _ a The Indian news is unimportant. The King of Oude is dead, and his son reigneth in his place—» matter of no great political moment. There have been some tarther triv:al manifestations of a discon- tented spirit in the Bundlekund quarter, but they have been put down, and are not hkely to lead to any ulterior consequences. i Scinde. : Cholera, which appears to have ravaged the vil- lages—leaving some of them, indeed, nearly halfde- populated—hus very much abated, and will, in all probability, speedily disappear.

Favored by a continuance of admirably fine weather, the harvest in this circle of the country is now general, and progressing more rapidly than we have known It for Many years; there is every prospect, unless interrupted by a sudden change, of much Corn being saved in excel: lent condition during the present week; these censidera- tions, combined with similar accounts from al) parts of the state of the manufacturing bee intercourse with those mar- kets, prohibit @ business for the moment; otherwise, ti low rates at which we have el now arrived are aetataly well calculated to promote an improved demand for corsumption. he display of foreign wheat and flour, thia morning Barley, Malt, Beans, and Peas, continuing to excite lit- j tle or nnd attention, the toes of each are very irregular | and searcely ascertainable.

Livearoot Provision Manxet.—American Propuck. | —The imports for this month are scarcely worth notice, | say 266 kegs and 26 bris Lard, 208 boxes Cheese, 773 ris Pork, and 11,311 bris Grease. The disturbed state of the manufac Ta districts adds to the dullness noticed in our last report, it is with difficulty any sales are effected; and, while this state of things continues, prices, forthe most part, must be considered nominal. Lard, in retail parcels, is selling at 88s; 40s to 42s for the best quality is asked. Hams have been sold at 35s to 40s. Bacon 40s to 42s. Beef is quite neglected, even for export. Pork 30s to 31s per bri. Cheese 388 to 60s per cwt, as to quality Grass continues to meet with a few purchasers at £36 pi ton. Hor Inre.iigence.—Matpstoxr.—The bines are some- what benefitted by the warm nights, but are still much in want of rain, No season has, perhaps, ever proved the importance of high cultivation ina iter degree than this; and, considering that an alteration of d: id colds has continued for so long a period, it i bs e that the condition ofthe hops is so jor ing about five o’clock, and issued the same in our regular weekly edition, and about 10,000 extras. The news is of the most intense interest. Every thing in Europe appears to be in a terribly unsettled state, and England seems to be rife for a revolution. If any thing should happen to Louis Philippe, or he should die suddenly, we may expect an immediate revolution in that country, tobe followed by a fright- ful and most bloody revolution in England. May that Providence who guides the destinies of empires, avert so fearful a calamity. Departure of Lord Ashburton and the British Frigate Warspite, The press of foreign news and other matter com- pels us to be brief on this subject. Lord Ashburton rose yesterday morning by half-past six ; and imme- diately on entering his sitting room he commenced reading the ‘“‘ New York Herald,” containing the important foreign newa. Soon afterwards, he sent over to our office by a special messenger requesting the loan of some English papers, and we had the pleasure of supplying him with two or three files of late London papers. He breakfasted about eight o’clock, read and answered a few letters, received the visits of several friends, and at half-past eleven took his seat in a plaincarriage, and was driven down to the Castle Garden. At the boat club stairs, the barge of Lord John Hay, with fourteen oars and a Lieutenant, was in waiting for him. There were about seven or eight hundred persons waiting to see him off. He walked from Mrs. Pettet’s, the Battery Hotel, to the stairs, leaning on the arm of the first Lieutenant of the Warspite, and followed by the crowd. He went inside the Castle Garden for a minute, and returned and embarked in silence. Not a cheer was given by those assembled, and no demonsiration was made until the barge arrived abreast of the North @arolina. Then that noble vessel opened her mouth, and fired a salute of 13 suns to Lord John Hay. Themen in the barge held their oars upright, the crew of the North Carolina manned the yards and gave three hearty cheers.— The Warspite’s yards were manned, and her crew returned the cheers. As soon as Lord Ashburton reached the Warspite, that vessel returned the salute. After this, Commodore Perry, in his barge, left the North Carolina, and went on board the Warspite, and took a quiet parting, private drink with Lord Ashburton and Lord John Hay. He stayed there about five minutes. As soon ashe left, the Warspite fired a Post Captain’s salute in honor of Commodore Perry. When the latter reached the North Carolina, he returned that salute, and manned the rigging The Warspite then fired a National Salute of 21 guns and got under weigh, with a steamboat oneach side of her. The North Carolina returned the Na- tional Salute, and the Warspite proceeded slowly down the bay, with the best wishes of all for her speedy and prosperous voyage. as it ia. SMONDEN, Maxpenx, anp YaLpixg.—Some of the hops in these parishes have done pretty well, while others have gone worse. The hot dry weather has nearly beat beth the fly and the lice, whilst in many of the fire blasted rounds, our old enemy, the flea, is working total destruc- tion. Ticenunst.—The hard. ph ge are now coming fast into bop, but are in wantof rain to give vigor tothe bine. The weak grounds are turning yellow, and « ill not do much. The duty is here considered too high at £135,000. Merewortn, Watrrincauny, axp Nerresteop.— The hops have grown considerably during the past week, but cannet be considered as having improved inthe man- at thistime of year. Most grounds appear to be ffering from the long drought and wet weather, rounds that appeared very healthy a fort: aight since, the fire-blast has appeared, and increases very ‘ast. Although there are some pet grounds, which the owners profess to have peculiarly treated, that still look well, still, should there not soon be a favorable change in he weather, no doubt they will give way as well as others. The crop will fall far short of the last year. State or Trape.—Mancuesten, Tuesday.—Ofcourse, in the present state of the town, there was but little busi ness done on the Exchange; thespinners and manufactu rers being unwilling, or, trom want of stock, unable to make sales. What business was done was at higier rates and yarn; put the prices were so exceeding- it any attempt tospecify the amount of ad- ould tend only to mislead. Dunpts, Tuesday.—During the last eight days there has been little or no change ia the state of our mercantile affairs. The reports of trade from the chieftowns in Eng- land continue to show symptoms of slight improvement r to what has been experienced here during the last veeks, but there is still great reom for amendment.— Flax on the spot is getting rather scarce, and prices are without alteration. Tows and codillas are also less abund- ant than usual at this period of the year, and are withou' any change in value. Yarns and linens are moving off slowly at same reduced rates as formerly. Tuonspar, Aug. 18.—Coromiat Propuce.—The de- mand for most kinds of produce was steady, and the gene- ral character of the market was unchanged, with a pro- xremive improvement. Inthe West India Sugar Market the sales were not large, but the importers were firm, and the prices of last week were firmly supported. Tea.—It being understood the public sales will take place next week, the market was very quict, and prices merely nominal, though purchases could not be made ex- sept at extreme rates. The deliver'es continue extensive, notwithstanding the low prices of coffee. Havas Market, Aug. 15.—Cotton.—Notwithstanding the continuation of favorable accounts from Liverpool, ano the fair amount of business done here in Cotton since our last report, our market has been altogether devoid of aui mation, and save for the fully ordinary qualities of United States short ale upon which, in some instances, an ad- vance of Ic per half kilo has been obtained ; our rates for the other grades of these Cottons have remained stationary. A public sale of 1739 bage New Orleans is advertised for the 17th inst. The transactions from the 7th to the 13th inst., last Saturday inclusive, embrace 7546 bags, consist- ing of 3841 bags New Orleans, at 661 to 93f 60c ; 1905 Mobile at 68f to 93f ; 2177 bags Upland at 68fto 90f ; 22 Bisco at 96 s 72 bags Guadaloupe at 1001 to 101"; 197 bags Porto Rico at 105f; and 325 bags Cumana at 66f ; the who duty paid, The arrivals within the same period amounted to 9775 bags, of which 9363 bags United Stat and 412 bags various sorts. sAshes.—American* pots have been selling at a decline from our last rates, 163 barrels New York pots, first sort, i. four lots, have been disposed of at 46f26c te 48f60c. We have received from New York, by the Burgundy, 6 barrels pots, from St. Petersburgh 10 casks, and from Marseilles 74 casks Coffee —Prices have been fe-bl; Mepicat INTELLIGENCE.—Great preparationg are making for the winter campaign by the medical in- stitutions of this city. The old and highly respec- table College of Physicians and Surgeons, will have very large classes. Dr. Mott does not entertain the most sanguine hopes of the success of the Stuy- vesant School of Medicine and Pharmacy, and the illiberality and insolent conduct of this Faculty to- wards the profession in this city, will doubtless ope- rate considerably to the disadvantage of this school Drs. Mott and Pattison, however, deserve,credit for their zeal in the work of suppressing quackery, and improving the science of pharmacy. The “College of Medicine and Pharmacy,” is meeting with ex- traordinary success. Among other valuable and new medicines, they have, we observe, introduced supported, and the transactions have only consisted of 200 bags good ordinary St. Domingo, at 45c, 126 ood Havana, at 45c to 664c, | a genuine Extract of Sarsaparilla,which can scarce- 977 bags ordinary to good Rio, at 37}c to 42}c, and 50 begs i . jbl ety paid at FS pregiarthy ret (ran ci lane try ly be manufactured quickly enough to meet the de mand.

Axtwerr Marxet.—Our Coffee sales from the 30th ultimo to the 10th instant, were far less numerous than those of the preceding week, owing perhaps in some mea- sure to the firmness of holders, but on the whole no fluc tuation took place. Sugar underwent no alteration, and the transactions were confined to 900 boxes yellow Ha- vana at 12 to 13} fl, in bend, leaving us with a stock of 100 boxes white, and 21,000 yellow Havana, 750 chests cf white and yellow Pernambuco, 750 cannisters Java, 9500 ellow and brown mats Manilla, and 1000 bags white, yel- low, and brown Siam.

Stock 9772 bales Louisiana, New Orleans and Mobile, 15,176 Georgia and Carolina, 377 Mako Senaar,490 Maranham, 48 Para, 880 Surat, and 93 bales Smyrna. Ame- rican Pot Ashes were in little request, and with difficulty maiatained previous rates; Russian, on account of the small remaining stock, which does not exceed 50 casks, whilst American may be estimoted at 2000 barrels, were better supported. In rice littie occurred, and prices con- tinued feeble. Stock, 3000 tierces Carolina, 8500 bags Java, and 3500 bags Bengal. The only sales of Tobacco effected this week was of 63 hhds Kentucky, and our stock is com- posed of 460 hhds Maryland, 60 Virginia, and 1981 Ken- tucky. Tea enjoyed afair demand, and about 400 chests Congou and Hyson Skin were, in the course of the week, disposed of at differedt prices according to quality. AmsrerpaM Manxet.—Coffee, during the eight days ending August 10, remained in the same position as the preceding week, with this exception hee that holders appeared rather more retired, beet perhaps to the au- tumn sales being considerably smaller than those of last ear. Ordinary Cheribon at 23} is rather scarce, and for ope consumption not to be bought under 24 cents ; fair yellow and brewn sorts are held at somewhat higher rates. Tea remained firm, but without much doing. Spi- ces continued in request. Carolina Rice, cleaned at Am- sterdam, 12} to 14 fi, cleaned in America 11 to12f. In cotton nothing particular was done, the Ftc fa he limited to about 150 bags Surinam, at somewhat ter prices than beiore.

J. C, Bennett, 4 On Friday evening the large Church at the corner of Chrystie and Delancy streets, was crowded with one ofthe most motley assemblages of male bipeds that ever before congregated within its walls, all anxious to hear about the secret wive system as practised at the holy city of Nauvoo, At half-past 7 o’clock, Mr. Origen Bachelor arose, and stated that he had been requested by Gen. Bennett to take part in the discussion, but he should merely make a few remarks for the purpose of showing that sects had sprung up indifferent ages of the world, professing to be Christian, who had practised the worst features of the Mormon system, for the purpose of showing the probability that some- thing similar may even now exist. Mr. B. then read from Buck’s Theological Dictionary extracts sustaining his views. Gen. J. C. Bexnert then rose, and was greeted with a round of applause. He said he had intended to have proceeded at once with his deseription of the Seraglio that existed in the city of Nauvoo un- der the auspices of the holy Pope, Joe Smith, but other matters had occurred to change his purpose. His life was sought by the Mormons, not because he was opposed to their doctrines, but because he knew of certain matters and things connected with the attempted assassination of Ex-Governor Boggs, of Missouri. He then spoke of the attempted assas- sination of himself on the 25th of May, and his be- ing followed from town to town in the west, continued, “On the Sist of August, the Captain- General of the Danite band, and five more of his band were arrived here, and their secret plans to assassi- nate me was overheard by some citizens ot this place, who will make oath to it: Lest I saould be assassin- ated 1 will state some of the I have on the subject of the attempted assassination of Silburne Ww. 3, hoping some Missourian may be sent to per he Gen. Ligh oe then proceeded to give a portion ot the in his posseasi inti out O. P.

The female department, of the ae, Emma (Joe’s wife) and twelve members os the Relief Society. * * * This inquisition has power to bind or loose, put up or put down, or destroy any pees or thing, from the Lord, and has two hundred Danites to enforce its decrees. Their doctrine is that the Prophet can do no wrong. * * i The Seraglio—The Mormon Seraglio, or female lodge, is co sed of three degrees or orders. First, the Cyprian Saints; second, the Chamber of the rset of Charity ; third, the Cloistered Consecrated jaints, ‘The firet, the wild Cyprian Saints, as I call them, are such females as are ected to be of easy virtue by the Sisters of Relief, who have them brought before the Inquisition, unless the Prophet reserves them for himself, and are called Cyprian Saints; take the white veil, and are excluded’ from the Consecratees of the Relief Society, who publish their shame privately, and they become an easy prey to Saintsand Gentiles. * * * They are sought by the Elders and Priests, whose passions are dark, sensual, devilish. . Second, the Sisters of the Chamber of Charity. This class are temales, married or single, who act on the permiseion ef the Prophet, without private marriage.

They are in favor of the and his Prophet, and all Israel. * * * The chamber is much larger than the Cyprians; they wear the green veil, and are obedient to the faith as taught by the Prophet. If the Prophet does not wish to monopolize any of them, they are turned over to the high priests, elders, &c. * * * | Third.—The Consecratees of the cloister—are set set apart to particular individuals by the command of God through his Prophet. They take the black veil and are the most honorable—the highest order in the harem.

Spectator gives an account of a most horrible affair which oc: in the neighborhood of Brownsburg, Rockbridge county, on Sunday last. Aman named J a a blacksmith by trade, wbo had been observed to be laboring under mental derangement for some days before, made an attack upon his wife and el- dest daughter, with a bar of iron, no doubt with the intention of killing them, but they in making their escape. He then caught two of his younger children, one of whom he killed ; and the other, though shockingly mangled, is still living.— About this time Capt. James M ney, of Brownsburg, who happened to be horney bad in com- pany with another gentleman, attracted by the noise, attempted to enter the house, but was immediately felled by the infuriated maniac with the bar of iron, and his skull so fractured that he died in about two hours. Capt M’C. was a most worthy man, and has left a wife and a family of children.
