T. E. Naxt ftetuarks on the lale Mission to the Sonlls Sea, from a private letter to a friend at the time of its failure. 11

THE various and nnmerous sectaries in Bri- tain have shewn asi ardent and warm dispo- sition from time to time, for propagating the Gospel amongst the unbelieving pag;ans a- broad, in the East unci West Indies; but in a!! -their laudable exertions, scarcely can we find a single instance, without some impru- dent conduct attending it, so as to prevent a I prosperous termination to such a commenda- ble attempt, wliieii is an evident proof that there must he some fissure in the projector's cranium uufavourahle to its success. I If we only consider the scheme formed for i preaching the GospeLin the South Sea isiands, I after funding a generous subscription, for hiring a vessel, and to support the Missiona- ¡ ries in their travels the persons who volun- tarily engaged to attempt this important un- dertaking, were of various and contrary sects, and so, differing in their opinions with sespect to, points of faith how could these unite their converts to he of one faith and one baptism, when they themselves differed so widely, and so vioirti; iy opposed each other, so that if one n an built, the other with all his might, wouiu endeavour to overturn the construction. If they had succeeded in proclaiming Christ to these heathens, would not they suppose that this religion which they endeavoured to impose upon them was nothing but a ground less imaginary fancy, or a designed artifice to I, mislead, and create a misunderstanding and anarchy among-Sf them, sHlce they themselves were so divided in their .opinions; and if each party had succeeded in gaining disciples to their different propositions, would not those convicts quarrel with each other ? Would «vot iiie effect of this be strife and shedding of blood- in those countries, as it has been In iiurope and other places, which is too well known, on account of such disputes r In the account tnuismitted by these Mis- sionaries of their voyage to those islands, I; •. ieil the juibiic, that they were aUcndeu diW nig tilesr passage with astonishing miraeh-s that the world might believe, aml be convinc- ed, that matters were led on by divine age-n-n• The blessed Providence that protected ««d supported them upon the ocean, was the :.aii)e good and merciful conductor who.?!: • blessings others enjoyed upon the same peri- lous passage, though these religionists might Hi ink those to he upon a less coiimienuabje enterprise than they. And after their arrival at the destined port, If' Ihey did not expect and believe, that Ihey would receive, as the first preachers of Chris- tianily, ihe gift of tongues, 1 cannot concern how they meant to preach to those strangers, when each party did not undertand a word of what ihe olher spoke. Would it not have been more proper to bring over to Britain a number of the youths of those countries, and I tlieni in letters, morality, and reli- gion, and transport them back to their own country, well qualified to teach their own i Ia- tion in their mother tongue, and other Mis, sionaries of svtnd faith and proper learning to accompany ti er.i tiiare, to attend thetu as occasion rNIB i l-etl After these Sec taries had boasted of the su- pernatural mirar es that followed them, dur- ing their voyage, we are told that their de. sign did not prosper in the least after their ar- rival and how could any man of reason and discretion expect success in such a wild under- taking ? Why did not those amazing miracles 'continue, which they say followed them all the way thither? They had brought with thcln ,a number of young women, whose charina captivated the affections of the mate part of the natives, as the beauties of their persons exceeded by far those of their own country women they made many attempts to ravish them from their friends, and it may be sup- posed beyond a doubt, they would have mur- dered the men and carried off the womeq to satisfy their own lustful appetite, if a vessel had not providentially arrived there from 1<.u- rope, bound to Botany Bay, which at their ardent request took them on board, -and con- veyed them tiiiiiier.-Aiid thus terminated this mismanaged scheme, which, if it had been carried 011 under the direction of sound reason and judgment, might have proved a valuable blessing and consolation to these miserable nations, who grope in darkuess, ignorance, and error. N, it. reason and pru- I dence have nothing to do with bigots and en- thusiasts, whose aim as it may be well con- J jectured were to become the prime rulers, chief leaders aud directors, among those Islanders, as this has ever been the disposition of Sectaries in all ages, places and countries, as it is too well known to us in Britain parti- cularly. On the arrival of the ship at Botany Bay, the Governor received the missionaries with joy, hoping they would join the clergyman he had brought with him to instruct and reform the lives of those wicked wretches, who had transgressed the laws of their country and been banished into this remote part of the world, after setting before them every advantageous proposal which might, induce them to settle in the place and unite their efforts in this one thing needful; Amongst other valuable privileges such as the place could afford, he pointed out an extensive portion of good land, and offered to erect suitable buildings for their accommoda- tion, and hands to cultivate the ground for their use these generous offers they rejected, one or two only excepted; they preferred returning buck to Britain, or to some other place which might appear more advantageous to their ambitious dispositions. If the design of these missionaries was to teach Christ, and such sound morals as became the profession, to the ignorant and the wicked, I ought uot they to look and be convinced that they were destined and led on to this place by Div iueProvldcnce, as it was impossible t o meet with such a set of vile and wicked wretches upon the face of the earth? But it is (I am I afraid) too evident. that this was not their motive; here was no object whereby they might become the prime leaders and directors of the people, because the Colony was to be governed by lirttisii laws, which couid not but check their ambitious views consequently they rejected the generous offer, though they had the advantage of speaking, teaching, and exhorting these people jtt their own native language, mul not like the Inhabitants of the South Sea Islands who spoke an imperfect un- intelligible jargon. But these zealous messengers of good tidings, though they had set their hands to the plow, yet looked forward for some more substantial emolument, than the bare name of reformers. '■ CENSOR.

SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE. (From a French Paper.) A young Mahometan female, stolen at the a, e of nine, from a wealthy and respectable fa miiy at Constantinople, was sold by her ra- I vishers at Brusse, in Bothnia, and fell into the hands of a very fsevere iiiaster. Eipployed one day in watering flowers in the garden of her patron, site was perceived by an European, who was smitten by the grace and beauty of her persbn. Young', rich, and intelligent, he succeeded in rescuing' the girl from the hor. rors of captivity, and conducted her privately to Cataihe. In managing her education, he became more and more attached to her, and resolved giving her his hand. This was however, as yet only in contemplation the licen-ce Qfrb-'s government, and the consent of his family were first to be obtained, and his pupil was as yet but ten years of age. He conducted her to Constantinople, lodged her with a Bishop of the Greek Church, for the purpose of making her a coavert to the Christian faith, and returned to his own coun- try in order to procure the necessary per- mission. Two years elapsed without the unfortunate giti's receiving any intelligence of her future giti's receiving any intelligence of her future husband. In this interval the Greek Bishop died; and the Neophyte, abandoned by the heirs of the Prelate, who was obliged to live retired and buried in the most profound ob- scurity, for fear of being discovered by her Turkish connections, irreconcileable to her change of religion. Her benefactor was to I be a compensation to her for every loss, which she must experience in consequence of this re- nunciation of her family and her faith. She thought only of him, and she conceived the I hold project of him, notwithstand- ing ail the dangers of the journey. Shcsei out on too!, from Constantinople, and arrived at Vienna, where she was infoimed that the Europeair-had. died a year before. Then rv, ( such is the name of our hero- 1 ine) see II., 11 other assylum for her but the bosom of thai, family from which she had been torn at so tender an age, went to Trieste for the purpose of selling out from thence to Constantinople. When she arrived in the first of these places, it had just received a French garrison, but every thing was still in the ut- most confusion. Alary obtained admission into a Grecian monasV'ry, 1 hereto wait for an opportunity of returning to her native country, A of infantry, nam- ed Da rtois,.became acquainled with her, paid j his addresses, and married her .at the end of a year. Madame Dartois still did not renounce her design of returning to Constantinople"; she thought that having become by marriage a French, woman, if niighl be possible for her t,) ap,♦ { >»» i reLtions. Her hi.e.band, obli- i ged to quit Trieste with his regiment, consent- ed to her going- to a city, where she had every tilitig to apprehend, and where she had expe- rienced so many misFortunes; but they were not yet arrived at the end of them. One even- ing, Madame Dartois, in the street of Pera, recognized through her veil, her old Bythini- an master, who was seeking her in the town of Constantinople, and who had sworn to kill her. Terrified at this meeting, she dared no longer to go abroad, nor take the smallest step towards attaining the object of her visit to the Turkish capital. She teceived, how- ever letters from her husband, and remained in this state of anxiety for the space of three years. M. Darlois w as continually pressing his lady to come to France. His letters were impor- tunate; they determined her to undertake the journey, notwithstanding the war now carry- ing on between the Turks aud Russians, who 10 obstruct all the roads and passages. She set out from Constantinople towards the middle of last July, She traversed Hungary, and passed through the Austrian camps but at the moment that she arrived at Gratz, she found her husband expiring of the consequen- ces of a wmiml which he had received at the' battle of Wugram. The disconsolate widow arrived at Schoeubrunn, at the very moment when the Emperor Napoleon was about to I 1 Jertve that palace, and to set out for France. she was fortunate enough to iil"l there his Ex- cellency the Duke of Bassano, Minister and Secretary of State General Le Brun, Aid-de. Camp to his Imperial Majesty M, Le Cheva. her Amedee Janberi, and several other persons to whom she made known her deplorahle con- dition. The Emperor became acquainted with it, through his Minister, and immediately his Majesty, by a special decree, allotted her a pension of one thousand six hundred francs, of which the first year's product has been paid her in advance. Penetrated with gratitude for the greatness of his benefaction, Madame ¡ Dartois ths^w luyselfat the feet of the Duke of Bassanof vvheu he announced it to her— This affecting scene ended, by her request to the Minister, to permit her to visit the gvavc of her husband, for the purpose of watering it once more with her tears.

MISCELLANIES. A fraudulent practice was detected on Thurs- day, at South Shields, which had been carried on for a number of years :-11 being custom- ary in one of the glass houses there to give tickets to the workmen to receive their allow- ance of beer at a public-house, one of the men who had learned to counterfeit a laic clerk's writing, by this means got what beverage he pleased, but the new clerk differing from his predecessor, the man could not get his clay I moistened as usual. However, oil the above day he received a ticket for two pints, to which he took the liberty of adding a cypher; but the landlady thinkiug 20 pints an,unusual order, shewed the ticket to the clerk, when the whole was detected. The man had been upwards ot 20 years ill the employ, had a handsome salary, and Jllade a profession of sit- perior sanctity. When questioned by the Ma- gistrate? as to what couid induce him to com- mit such a crime ? he laid the whole blame on Satan On the Gallantry oj the Agc.Old people, J and especially old women, complain very loud- ly of a ivant of gallantry in the young men of I i he present day but this complaint, like all iiiose of the degeneracy of the age, will be found, on reflection, to be without foundati- on. A century ago, tlie education of women was so little intellectual, that unless they were kept at a chivalric distance from the men, and were very little known to them, they would never have been taken by them for magnifi- cent. A gallant, or rather knight, of a cen- tury ago, looked upon all women as a kind of superior beings, to be thought only with re- verence, and to be. approached only upon the kites. In the pleasing life of Lord Herbert, of Cherbury, the true knight' gives an in- teresting account of the effect his chivalric oath wrought upon him; in virtue of which he th-ought himself bound to challenge, and actually did challenge, a man who had play- fully taken a ribbon from a female child, of ten or twelve years old and even so late as Richardssri'is days, there was not a novel which gave its heroine to its hero till he bad been on his knees to her. Such blind idolatry as this is very properly scorned by the present gene- ration and, to the worship of slocks arid stories, has succeeded that of a more reason- able object.—Ttie present education of women and the literary wares of some ingenious fe- males, have brought them to a real equality with men, instead of an ideal superiority over us and they arc now treated more as our companions and friends. In former limes, women were kept from the company of men as if they were not the same species of animal, I and were really taught to believe that man was some non-descript he-monster, who would eat them up, if they Sell in his way. The whole duty of women then was to keep all the keys: if the man wished to entertain his friends, the presence of his wife was a rc- sraillt, and he took them over to the next tavern. Surely, then, the sex ought to re- joice at their elevation in our opinions, rather Shan repine at the greater familiarity of our behaviour towards them, when it is on!v the result of that elevation and should gladly exchange tlie restrains! of being thought. «/t- gels, for privileges of being considered as ■women.Monthly Mirror. Irish limi;io-iiii-A few days since a slater, named Kerns, fell from a brewery, in Drog- heda, and was unfortunately killed on the spot. He wa# the only support of an aged mother, a wife and young family. So reduced was they by this calamity, that they lost even the hope of deriving any benefit from the f sustenance his industry had provided for the severity of the tsppruuching winter; but no sooner were their neighbours informed of their situation, than betweeu 60 and 100 persons from Crooked-street, Droghcda, repaired to the field where their little crop was, and in a few hours, not only dug their potatoes, but by a small subscription amongst thmuelves, paid the rent of the ground and dwelling, and con- veyed the winter's support home to the cot- tage of this disconsolate family. 11ast,moldh,Messrs. Meek and Davidson, two contractors for the operations which have been -carrying on apon the meadows of Inver- uesshire, in Badeiioeh, by George Maephersoii Grant, Esq, of Ballindalloch, M. P. finished this great work, which they commenced in May, 1807, and by which upwards of 500 Scotch acres of rich meadow land are rescued from the overflowings of the river Spey. The main drain which interrupts the mountain stream is upwards of three miles in length, and at an average twenty feet wide, with a floodgate at its extremity, to exclude the river in time of floods. The embankments extend along the river Spey about three miles and a half, and is at an average five feet high, but in many places upwards often feet. On Saturday the 4th inst. a youth of the name of Munro, a shopman in Inverness, hav- ing obtained leave from his master to visit his father in Dingwall, thought proper, in imita- tion of those in more fashionable life, to de- camp with his doxy, the wife of a. shoemaker, and proceeded in a different direction the length of Fort-Augustus, where he left her, e, s and returned 011 Sunday evening with a view to prevent suspicion. Immediately on his re- turn, however, he was taken up by his master and put in jail, as there were strong reasons to apprehend that such proceedings could not be supported by the finances of an apprentice shop-keeper. A search was accordingly made and sdveral articles which he had purloined were found in his trunk, containing also a considerable quantity of clothes belonging to his paramour, and which were intended to have been forwarded to Fort-William, from whence they were to have taken their passage for America. MURDER.—The following are the particu- lars of the horrid murder that was committed on the body of Sarah Styling, of liroadhurst, near Bridgwaler, in Soillersetsliirt:-Oii the morning of Wednesday, the 15fh ult. the husband of the deceased went out, and did not return home until about tet o cfock at midnight, when he found all his doors and windows fast, and not receiving any answer to his knock 1. he forced his way in, and found his wife a cojpse, the back 1)ait being cut. open. The horrid ieed was sup- posed to have been perpetrattd by a small hatchet, as one was found ina bloody state. The deceased's pockets were turned out, and the contents taken the drtWers were un- locked, two ten pound notlS, some cash, a watch, some small valuable irticles, stolen some articles of plate and a iarge quantity of wearing apparel, which it it supposed were taken away in a corn bag. A gun and horse were also discovered to have been stolen. A lad, about 18 years of age, a servant to Mr. Styling was left in the hoise when Mi*. Sty- ling left home, was Slllipecttl, as he was not in the house, nor was he tc be found in the neighbourhood; and the suspicion was stro ng- ly confirmed by the folloving circumstances, and he has not since beenneard of. He hired himself by the name of Thomas Gage; but there is since, upon inquVies being made af- ter him, every reason tobelieve his name i* Tarr. He lived with Mr Jeffries, a butcher, of Dalvertoa, from whou it was suspected he stole a guinea, when lie was a mere boy, and left his place when his uaster was gone. The last time he was seen was about 7 o'clock on the evening the murder was committed, by a farmer,, crossing Gijwmore Park, about a roile from Mr. Sty lings bouse, ou horseback, sifting oa a bag, which it was imagined, coe, t, tained the stolen property. He bad a gun ia his hand, supposed to be the one stolen from his master's house and there is no doubt but it was loaded, as he had purchased some pow- der and shot a. short time before. Indian Jugghrs,—We were vigited one evening by a set of jugglers, who craved permission to exhibit their skill, tor our di* version which being gritited, the proceeded to perform a great variety of very pleasing deceptions, particularly that of tlie MaugS tree, which I dare say most gentlemen who have resided any time at Bengal, or the upper provinces, have had opportunities of seeilit. A Mango stone was buried in the ground before our faces, with sundry strange grimaces and affected incantations by the jugglers; ia a short space of time, a slender tree was 00- served to sprout up from the spot,which, in the course of all hour, grew the height of four or five feet, with au exuberant foliage, and seve- tal green mangoes, which we were requested" to pluck and taste!; the process was certainly very adroitly managed, and excited a consi- derable degree of pleasure and surprize. ■■ The whole tribe or slight-of-hand men in Europe, are mere bunglers, when compared with ihe* itigglek-s. of India their deceptions are so ad- mirably executed, and some of their pet-for-1 mances of such a strange nature, that the ig norant and superstitious natives, believing as they do aH the enchantments described in such books as the Arabian Nights Entertainment, may well ascribe to them necromantic pow- ers. Even some pious Roman catholic mis- sionaries have gravely asserted, that the jug- glers on the coast of Coromandel haddeal'ingj with the devil, as their feats were beyond the reach of human power. Without subscribing to the opinions of those reverend fathers, V must: confess, that many of their actions wero very wouderfui, and one of thcm in particular has been prollounccd bv surgeons, eminently skilled in the anatomy of the human body, to be impossible.—What I allude to is the cit- cumstance of a man th/usthig a sword down his own throat, up to the hilt, without receiv- ing any injury. With all due submission to these learned anatomists, who decide so dog- matically on the impossibility of the thing, J must beg to state, that I have seen it perform? ed by the Pandai'ums, at Madras, above a dozen timos; and I doubt not, but there are hundreds üLpeople in England who have seefi it also there was no deception, no trick what- ever, bit an absolute deglutition of the blad' I of a sword formed like a cut and thrust, but blunt at the point and edges, I examined it minutely, and found it to be a real and sub' staiitia) piece of cold iron the man threw hit head back, so as to bring the passage of the throat in a straight line with the stomach ht then took the sword in both his hands, aud in serled it with great care, until the whole wa engulphed, aud thc hilt only remaiucd ont v hili mouth. 1 once saw it performed befon several gentlemen, among whom was the sur gecll of an lnuiaman, then at anchor ill Ma, (ii-,ts rc)ads'; lie NV'S VCRV Oil ,he SLib- jects until it was fairly brought to i.«sue, wlief the realty of Ihe cireuiKslance excited his a* treme astonishment; he desired the mariti Iio a, td his doubts were removed, he made the darum a proposal to go with him to Europe in consideration of which, he would give bin one thousand pagodas on the spot, a like StilI 011 his arrival ini Englaud, with his expcnre there and oilier advantages.
