New-York, Nov. 11. FROM COLOMBIA. By the arrival of the brig Medina, Sullivan, from Carthageni, advices are received from that place to the 13th ult. inclusive, and from Bogota to the 27th. "It is staled that the insurgent general Cordova meet9 wi'h much discouragement. He endeavored to force a levy of

troops, including all men between 1 4 and 50 years of age, in order to march with a thousand men against Lauca, but obtained only 200. The city of Antioquia refused him admittance, but the province appears to be overrun by him. A still later account inform us that Gn. O'L'eary had advanced to Nare, which restored the communication with the M.igdelena, and that he was moving on into the interior of the province. It is said that be had 4000 men under his command. Gen. Urdanetta, the minister of war had established his head quarters at Honda, about seventeen leagues from Bgota, with all his disposable force. Some apprehensions were entertained in that capital. It was expected that Gen. Obanda commander of the province of I'asto, would join Cordova. The constitution proclaimed by Cordova, is 'hat ofCacuta, the first constitution ofColombia. A decree had been issued by the Colombian Government, a few days before the sailing of the Medina, allowing vessels of war and merchant ships to take 1 000 each out of the country free of duty; brigs 500 do; and each passenger 100 to .JoOO, according to their rank. The yount; Duke of Montebello sailed from Canhagena in the British Packet, for France via Jamaica and England. Mr. Moore our Minister to Colombia arrived with his suite at Bogota, on the 23tii Sept. general Harrison was ex pected at Cacthagena the last of October, where, it was said, he would wait the return of the sloop of war Natchez, from Rio Janeiro, to embark for the United States. We give the foregoing particulars from the morning papers. The Daily Advertiser says: "It is however, evident that the rebellion is regarded with apprehension ; and it is by no m ans improbable, with all the discontent which prevails in the coontrv, under the Dictatorship, if it should lead to something very serious.' The Medina brought 32,500 in specie for sundry merchants of this ity. SIEGES OF CONSTANTINOPLE.

ulaimiug, "I would rather die than live;'-5 and shortly afterwards, perceiving himself deserted by his recreant followers, and crying aloud, "Is there no Christian hand to smile ofXm aching head?" met a glorious death, though doomed to fall by the cymetar of an intidel. The dead alive: Some hypochondriacs hnve fancied themselves misera

bly afflicted, in one way, and some in another; some have insisted that they were tea pots, and some that they were town clocks, one that he was extremely ill, and another that he was dying. But perhaps none of this blue devil elas ev er matched in extravagance a patient of the late Dr. Stephenson, of Baltimore. 1 1113 hypochondriac, after ringing the charge of every mad conceit that ever tormented a crazy brain, would have it at last that he was dead, actually dead. Dr. Stephenson- having been sent for one morning in great haste, by the wife of his patient, hastened to his bed side, where he found him stretched at full length, his hands acros3 his breast, his toes in contact, his eyes and mouth closely shut, and his looks cadaverous. "Well, sir, how do you do," replied the hypocondriac faintly; a pretty question to ask a dead man.7 "Dead !" replied the Dr. "Yes sir, dead, quite dead. I died Inst night abo'jfc twelve o'clock.' Dr. Stephenson putting his hand gently on the forehead of the hypochondriac, as if to ascertain whether it was cold, and also feeling his pulse, exclaimed in a doleful tone, 'Yes the poor man is dead enough; 'tis all over with him; and now ihc sooner he can be buried the better.' Then stepping up to his wife, and whispering to her not to be frightened ;it the measures he was about to take, he called to the servant, 4mj boy, your poor master is dead; and the sooner he can be put in the ground the better. Pain to C , for I know he always keeps New England collins by him ready made; and do you hfjar, bri-ngac-ffin of the largest size; for youi master makes a stout corpse, and having died last night, and the weather being warm, he will not keep long.' Away went the servant and soon returned with a proper eoflin. The wife and family having got their lesson from the Dr. gathered round him, and howled not a little, while they were putting the body in the cofRn. Presently the pallbearers, who were quickly pro. vided and let into the secret,started with the hypochondriac for the church yard. They were not gone far before they were met by one of the town's people, who, having been properly drilled by Stephenson, cried out, kAh, Dr. what poor soul have you got there?' Pcor Mr. B , sighed the Dr. left us last night!' Great pity he had not left us ten years ago,' replied the other; khe was a bad man.' Presently another of the townsmen met them with the same question 'and what poor soul have you got there Dr.? 'Poor Mr. U ,' answered the Dr. again, 'is dead.' 'Ah indeed,' said the other; 'and so he is gone to meet his deserts at last.' 'Oh villain!' exclaimed the man in the cotlin. Soon after this, while the pall-bearers were resting themselves near the church yard, another stepped up with the old question again, 'What poor soul have you got there, Dr.?' Poor Mr. B ; replied the Dr. is gone. -'Yes, and to the bottomless pit,' said the other; 'for if he is not gone there I see not what use there is for such a place.3 Here the dead man bursting otftbeiid of the cofiiin, which had been purposely left loose, leaped out exclaim tng, '0)ou villain! l am gone to the bottomless pit, am I? well 1 have come back to pay such ungrateful rascals as you are.' A chase was 50011 commenced by the dead man, to the' petrifying consternation of many of the spectators, at sight of a corps in all the horrors of a winding sheet, running through the streets. After having exercise d himself! into a copious perspiration by the fantastic race, the hypochondriac was brought home by Dr. Stephenson; and by strengthening food,generous wine, cheer ful company, and moderate exercise was soon restored to perfect health. Ill CKr0RT,0c7. 21. Melancholy Accident.-Qi Thursday last an accident occurred in this village" of a truly melancholy nature. The circumstances were these: Capt. Ellis of the Mill boat, of Rochester, haviner placed his boat under General Beach's Store House for the purpose of leading her with Wheat, the lid cf the conductor was icmoved letting the wheat run rapidly into the boat, from a bin containing several thousand bushels. Capt. E's. son a lad of 8 years old, had got into the bin unobserved, and a son of Roderick R. Steward aged 9 years, a son of Mr. Edwards, aged 15 were standing on the edge of the bin when the wheat began to rim. Soon apt. tj. s son was drawn out of siht wiiii -ue iwoomer noys jumped into his assistance. They both shared the same fate, all being entirely buried beneath the wheat. In this situation they remained till a shoe was drawn throuuh the conductor and the passage partly stopped, when they were discovered and immediately extricated, the two former lifeless, and the hitter seriously injured Every excrtiou was made to restpie them

'0 life, but without effect on Capt. I

son, the vital spark had fled. The other two were partially restored and in a fail way to recover. The Penitent Rcgue. A Catholic, who had filled up the measure of his iniquities, as far as he dared, went to the Priest to confess, and obtain absolution. He entered the apartment of the priest and addressed him: "Holy father I have sinned." The priest bid him be seated, in the penitential chair. The penitent was seated, and looking about, he saw the priest's gold watch lying on the table within his reach. He seized it, and put it in his boom. The priest approached him, and requested him to acknowledge the sins for which he needed absolution. "Father," said the rogue, "1 have ?lolen. and what shall 1 do?" "Restore, said the Driest. Whe thine vou have stolen to

its rightful owner.'1 Do you take it?vthy with the repeated assertion of cer said the penitent.- "No, I shall not, "j tain veraevms man in this neighborhood said the priest, "you must give it to the'thatthe J-iekson party is losing ground

owner. 'uuc ne nas reiuseu to iai; 11, said the penitent, "and what shall 1 do with iU" "If this be the case you may keep it."" The holy father granted him full absolution. The penitent knelt,; kissed his hand, craved beuedicionJ crosseu nimseii, ami departed with a clear conscience and a verv valuable gold watch into the bargain. Rats.

One caught hold of eathlj hand, two others held the feet, whild the others commenced lacerating the throat, endeavoring, no doubt, to penetrate the juglars; but a timely discovery by t!ie mother, prevented the fatal consequent es which otherwise would inevitably have followed. You who have children feed your rats well. Gal. Adv. Gen. Samuel Houston, late governor of Tennessee, w ho, it will be re o!lectd, abdicated his flic.e and t.-xiled himself from his country, has taken up his abode among the Cherola es. "H lives," says the author of our iufortnu t'un, '"at his wigwam or summer house,! constructed ot cane, and closely entwined and matted by the Lima bean, at the mouth of the Illinois river, about twenty live miles from Cant. Gibson' The mysterious and eccentric character ol lib departure from Tennessee seemed

to savour of madness; but our informant Chaplin had more of it in his possesion, adds 'we hear nothing from him but mun-j which lie ate on his way to the magisIv sentimenls.conciliatorv lannuaue, and Urate's cilice. The notes were on the

enlarged and liberal views ws ol thu p;. He eems to be sati-fied with his sitoalion, and is in a state of enviable happiness.' Yet when bespeaks of himsc-di the deepest dejection overwhelms him. We may hide, but who can heal the canker of the heart? Envy must indeed be famished to mumble over the sinewless okeleton of his fortune; His prid- mortified his ambition subdued his talents buried in the wilderness, and nothing but the memory cf ruined hopes, happiness and fame, left to tread with him the "stranger paths of banishment.
