 trOnage, is not far from revolt; and it is ad- ded, that symptoms have been discovered among the people, of the ideas which were once caused by the vicinity of France. 1t was announced in the political circles, that revO- lutiOnary movement had taken place at BOIOg- na, and that the troops and the popuIace had come to blows.

 $ Cape de Verds.-We copy the following touching incident from the Philadelphia Ga Zette.

 The latest accounts from the Cape de Verds brought by the brig Forest, Capt. Ira hen, just arrived at this port, are very dis tressing, and should excite anew the gene- rous sympathies of this community. AnOth- CT ship, laden with benefac tiOns, is about to sail from hence, to those unfortunate islands, and whatever can be dOne for their inhabitants should be doue quickly. We are permitted to make the following quotation from tie journal of Capt. Trathen. It is touching. and should be of avail :-" On another occasion had just landed, and was proceeding towards the store which contained the charity provi- sions. On our way thither I saw a woman nearly naked, with an infant at her breast; she was lying on the ground quite motiOnless. l immediately went to her, desiring her to

 

 which were then darting in her face but alas, Hound she was dead aud aItho' there were 3 or 4OOpeople about her, DO one knew but that she was sleeping. Her child still clung to her breast; but it's sufferings ceased in about two hours after its mother's.'

 A late account from the different settle ments or islands, estimates the total loss of n- habtants by starvation, at 80, 500.

 Extract ofG letter dated Selma, Ala. March Q9.

 We have had very heavy rains here for a. bout fourteen days, and tie river and creeks have risen SO high that there is no possibility for the mail to run even on horse all the Riv- CT towns except this and Benton are complete ly under water. In Cahawba there is not one house on dry land the Court House was washed down on the 26tf,, and at Mr. Fay lor's Hotel the dM ellers have to pass in and out throug gh the second story windows in ca noes; in tact the water covers the land from twenty to thirty miles distant; you cannot conceive the condition. the country is in- since its first settlement the river was never known so high, and it is with the greatest diff fculty that the steam boats can navigate, as the current is very rapid the usual landing place is moro than ten feet under water, and the boats discharge their cargoes in the main streets. I send this by steam boat to Mont gomery, in the hope that it may reach you.

 The following singular statements are talk en from a letter addressed to the Editor of the Alexandria D. c. Gazette, by his torres pondspt at Washington. The account of the nature of the loss does not agree with that given by the Washington papers.

 pass to the loss of the Treasury ofice.- fV flo flnoks premeditately burnt-and it is well under stood, now, that vast mass of the public books and documents were consumed in it; involving millions upon millions ofpublic mo- ney, and for which the country stands desti- is, that numerous and heavy claims will be raised against the Government; at least, such is the probability, and very natural conse quence. And if it should result, as it is said, that very great portion of the revolutionary papers are consumed, the pension fund will be SO diminished as to eat up all the surplus money arising from the Tariff. A Court of inquisitiOn was held all last week, by order of the President, at which Judge Cranch presi- ded. Associated with him on the bench were the Heads of Departments principally. They sent for witnesses, and examined them upon oath. The result is, that clear suspicion attaches to some of them so much so, that the Court called upon men attached to the Office, to promuIgate their Bank transactions; which demand, being, at once, very properly rejected, one individual of them, at least, has had his pay arrested from him by order ofthe President. These are strange times, and many, very macy most extraordinary things are daily transpiring. own, indeed, that they are, most of them, without analogy. and certainly unprecedented. You shall soon hear again from me.

 Murder at Nashville, Ienn.-On Sunday morning, March Slst, two men were found in bed of a back room of retired house on the square. with their heads shockingIy bruised, one of them weltering in his blood and with fractured skull These men, whose pames are Michael Hoover and William Pryor, had it seems been gambling on Satul day night, till a late hour, and nothing had been heard of them after they retired to rest, till the servant who went into the. room to make a fire in the morning, found them in the condition mem tiOned. They were not dead, but one of them, Pryor, who was most injured, was senseless. and the other nearly so. Neither ofthem was able to speak coherently or intelligiby. or to furnish any account of the circumstances which had placed them in SO horrible con- dition. The affair is still involved in much mystery. That they could in quarrel mu- tuallV heat and XyOnnd each nther fo such an
