Bv late arrivals at New York from Europe, information has been received of the declaration of war by the Emperor of Russia against Turkey. Despatches officially communicating this declaration was forwarded to the Russian ambassador residing in London on the 11th of March, and by him disclosed to the British government. The fcmperor justifies the 6teps he has taken against Turkey, on the .grounds of her having violated the treaty of Akcrman, and on that of her having excited the Prussians to hostilities on Russia. Wc, of the United States, have little interest in these struggles of the old world, except so far as they may afford a market for the surplus produce of the country. Let those nations fight who will' it: ours be the more pleasant and pro6table task of furnishing them with meat and bread for their money. The Indian Agency has lately been removed from Fort Wayne to the mouth of Eel river on the Wabash. Eel river enters the Wabash about 60 miles north west of Indianapolis, and about the same distance south west from Fort Wayne, fllr. Tipton, the agent, has removed his family to that place. Cumberland Road. The Bill for the continuation of this road through Indiana, introduced into the Senate by Mr. Noble, passed that body on the 23J ult. Mr. Hendricks has politely furnished us with a copy of the bill as it passed, which will be found below. What may be done with it in the House of Representatives remains uncertain, though Mr. Smith seems to be of opinion, that should it be reached in the order of business before the close of the session it may pass into a law. It is supposed the session will close between the 20th and 25th inst. CORY OF THE BILL. Be it enacted, by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of.

TO THE EDITORS. Washington, 22d April, 1828. ) House of Representatives. $ Gentlemen: A few minutes ago the vote of the House of Representatives was taken on the final passage of the tariff. The vote stood, Ayes, 105, Noes 94. Several members were absent, mostly from indisposition; however, had every member been present the vote would present not have been materially altered in its proportion. The whole vote of the South with the votes of Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi, went against the bill. The Indiana delegation voted for the bill. I consider it extremely doubtful whether it will pass the Senate ; vet I hope it may, as I think it much better than i.vo bill on the subject, although it is not just such 11 T 1 PT" I- - a mil as i wisneu to see passeu. l ne bill introduced into the Senate, by Gen. Noble, to cut off the limber and open the Cumberland Road through ourslate, was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading to day by a very decisive vote. The bill will pass the Senate, without doubt, and should we be able to reach it on the orders of the day, I hope the Re presentatives of the state will be found where the benators have been, at their posts, supporlinglhis important measure. Yours respectfully, O. H. SMITH. CONGRESS. The following messaee was communi cated from the President of the United States, by Mr. Daniel Brent,- Chief Clerk in the Department of State, acting as his private Secretary: To the SenciP. and House of Representatives of the United States: Washington, 17th April, 1828. In conformity ih the practice of all my predecessors, I have, during my service in the office of President, transmitted to the two houses of Congress, from time to time, by the snme private Secretary, such messages as a proper discharge of my . constitutional duty appealed to me to require. On Saturday last he was clnrged, with, the delivery of a message to each House. Having presented that which was intended for the House of Representatives whilst he was passing within the Capitol, from their Hall to the Chamber of t lie Senate, for the purpose of delivering the other message, he was waylaid and assaulted in the Rotunda, by a person, in the presence of a member of the House, who interposed and separated the parties,, 1 have thought it ray duty to communicate this 'occurrence to Congress, to whose wis dom it belongs, to consider whether it is ol a nature requiring from them any an amadvemon; and al.o, whether any further laws or regulations arc necessary, to ensure security in the official inter-! jth to course between the President and Con gress, and lo prevent disorders within the capitol itself. In the deliberations of Congress upon this subject, it is neither! expected nor desired by me, that any consequence should be attached to the private relation in which my Secretary stands to me. .

to the committee on the Judiciary. Mr. M'Duffie objected to this motion; and, observing that the subject of the message was of an important character, and required to be noticed by the House in the most solemn and respectful manner, moved that it be referred to a select committee. The question beinr taken on Mr. Hoffman's motion, it was negatived without a division. The resolution for a se lect committee was then agreed to, and it was ordered to consist of seven mem-

Read and adopted at their anniversary meeting, July 22d, 1827. The influence of the Bible upon the moral condition of man in communicating to him a knowledge of his origin and future destiny in drawing the line of distinction between good and evil in unfolding to his view the principles Upon which rewards and punishments are administered in teaching him his duty to God and his neighbor and in inspiring his mind with the confident expectation of glory, honor and eternal life at the close of his labors on earth, if he has been governed by the precepts of the gospel and had for his object the glory of Gcd and the good of man has had the effect of exciting to action all the faculties of his mind, by which he has been able to discover the existing connection between cause and effect, and finally of cominsj to the conclusion that in striving to be tiuely happy he should strive to be trucly good. "This influence has been felt, and must- be acknowledged to exist, in a greater or less degree wherever the bible is read ; hence it is that the true worshippers of God worship him in spirit, while the heathen! pay their devotion to some idol the work j mrougn its inhuence civil governments; T ornized "P more rational princiP lhe rIg- v cycr class of citiZ'iI1S .bfttcr curcd; useful arts improv-

MR. ADAMS' PRINCIPLES. Extract of a private leMer, written by Mr. Adams while at Ghent, dated Nov. 1814, shortly after, he had written the well known Harris letter, in which he is charged with expressing sentiments entirely anti-American. "the success of the attack of the English upon Washington intoxicated them to such a degree, that the translated their Gazette account of it into all the principle languages, and sent it by special messengers all over Europe. That of Sir John Slu'?rbrook's expedition, followed soon after, and in more than one way flattered their dreams of conquest. Their conduct at .Washington, however, excited throughout all Europe a sentiment very different from that which they had expected; a sentiment of difgust at the Gothic .barbarism of thrir proceedings; and j-inee then their failure at Baltimore, their defeat on Lake Champlain, their retreat from PlutUburgh, and the sortie of the 1 7th September from fort
