of the quiet mode in which the conquest of this ancient city was achieved,
is from the pen of Mr. Buckingham, of Boston, who wa a resident, ia it,' at the time of the capture. . "I must not omit to mention that we denizens of Smyrna, who were yesterday quiet subjects of the Grand Turk, found ourselics this morning subjects of the victorious Egyptian Pacha. An officer of rank in the Pacha's arrived here last evening, with only four attendants and demanded possession in the name of his master. Ty3r Bey, tne Sultan s Governor, immediately re signed, having no means of making any defence; and Iman EtTendi, who has! been his chief law-othcer, succeeded hin a3 temporary Governor of Smyrna. There are some thousand Egyptians in the immediate vicinity, who will make their entry in a day or two. We shall then have for Governor, as it is said, an able and intelligent man, who has commanded in Greece, and has been banker of the Pacha. The city guard was changed Inst evening, and the tax upon the people, who come in from the country with produce, whs immediately abolished. The Turks here are highly gratified with the new order of things; people of all other nations will, of course, derive benefit lrom the change.' From the Democrat. By the politeness of J udge Polke, the Commissioner of the Michigan Road, we are enabled to lay before our readers, the following brief statement of the contracts entered into for improvements to be made between Madison and Indianapolis: Contracts have been made for the improvement on G-l miles between In dianapolis and Madison, for the sum of! 20, to wit: Improvement let at Madison on 6 miles lor - - joyj UO At Sew Marion on Big Graham for improvements on 7 miles of road 960 00 At Napoleon on 9 miles for 1,434 00 At Greenburgh on 10 mile for 1,404 00 At French's Ion 9 683 25 AtSbeIbyiIle 7 ' 907 00 At Doble' Inn, Shelby co., 6 miles 7W3 OU At Indian apolfs 1,428 00 $9,296 25 Contracts have been made for the erection of about 25 frame bridges, to be placed over the principal streams, to wit: Big Graham in Ripley county, Little Graham, Little Otter, Muscatatuck, Sand creek, Deer creek. Mill creek, Lewis' creek, Big Sugar, Brandy wine, Pleasant Run, Fall creek and several other streams, besides puaw.t..'M unvi vuitcit oriuges over an msmall branches ami ravines on the road. All the principal hills hare been let out, to be graded so that the ascent will not be more than 7 degrees, or a-! bout one foot rise to bfcet on the surface. The marshes and muddjf places have been, (or will be at private contract) ordered to the turnpiked "25 feet in centre of the road, and gradually descending from centre to outside ditches so as to drain the water off from thef road. It is thought by the Commissioner that the appropriation made last winter and to be expended on the road during the present season, will render the road goud from the Lake to the Ohio. e understand that the contracts have been taken bv resoonsible rersons, and on terms highly advanta 'jreous to the state. The Commissioner proceeded to the north from this place, for the purpose of letting out contracts between Indianapolis and the Lake. CURRANT WINE.

The Baltimore American mentions thru while in that city, the Hon. John Randolph travelled in an old fashioned English coach ana four, with a postillion on one of the leading horses, and Juba on the box. It adds "We learn that his passage through Pratt street to the Cit' .. i iie occasion of some little im convenience nnd irritation to him. His remarKable equipage came leisurely along that street just about the time ot the arrival of the steamboat Kentucky, and thus attracted the attention of the crowd of persona who were in waiting to witness her arrival, as well as the hundreds who had just landed from her, at the inter section of Light and Pratt streets. It was soon generaly understood that Mr. R. was in the coach, and curiosity on the part of some, and the force of the ex ample on others immedially induced numbers of the spectators to follow him. By the time he reached the Hotel, we learn that the crowd was so dense in front of it that his enterance at the principal door was impossible at length the equipage proceeded to the private door on Fayette the coach to tne iiorei in trie arms ot Juba. Mr. us. apperance is said to indicate an extremely delicate 3tate of health Mr. Randolph arrived in Philadelphia on Tuesday last, and it was his intention to embark immediately for France, in order if possible, to recover his health, but we regret to say, that although attended by some of our naost eminent physicians, he departed this life on Friday, in the sixtieth year of his age. BickneWs Re porter. J One track of the Rail Road over the Alleghany mountain is expected to he completed in the present season, and a double track on the entire line of the j Philadelphia and Columbia Rail Road and the whole line from Philadelphia to th Alleghany river thus completed. The French Creek division of the Pennsylvania Canal will al be finished in tlie present season, by which a line of forty miles will be run N. W. towards I.ake Erie. I he communica
tion then through the Alleghanny riverPosed to da7 large masses of lime stone
will be sufficient for one or two boats of proper burthen. It is said that a company is about to be formed for the construction of one boat by the early part of spring. The Cherokee Intelligencer of the 4th inst. states that a battle was fought on the 28th ult. near Scudders in Forsyth county, Georgia, between a party of Indians and a party of whites consisting of about thirty on each side. The weapons of warfare consisted of hits, sticks, and stones, and although fortunately there were no lives lost, still there were a number of black eyes! and broken bones. The quarrel it is supposed, originated in a dispute about the gold mines at that place The schooner Fredericksburgh, from Matanzas, brings intelligence una that General Villa Soria had arrived uicre i in i( i ui .i iui n ui j iiicij, romAyexic0f to Shinto Teai eXDcllinz the Amer! ican emigrants.

SATURDAY, JUNES, 1833.
Xew Publications. We have received the first six numbers of the "People's Magazine" published in Boston by Lily, Wait, & Co. It is an extremely neat work of eight pages, each number of which is embellished with several sph ited engra vings on type-metal, which add much to the verbal description of scenery, or the subject matter of the articles over which
they are placed. We publish the piospec-jlagea scattered over its surface, some tus in another column, and recommend it! of which contain more than one thou- ' ai a a
to the particular attention of our friends. The first numbers may be seen at this ffice. From the same we have received several numbers of "Parley m Magazine It contains sixteen pages, and is orna mented with engravings. It is designed particularly for the entertainment of youth, blending instruction with amusement,and thus clothing matters of fact in language attractive to the youthful mind. We will publish the prospectus shortly, and would recommend it as worthy of the attention of parents and guardians. A part of the trial of the Rev. E. K. Avery ,is published in Bicknell's Reporter. It is entirely to long for publication in our sheet. We know not how the trial has terminated, but hope in the acquital of Air. Avery. tor Ike Richmond Palladium. A geaeral iscripton of the Whitewater CoMtry of Waya coamty im particular. The district of country drained by the Whitewater River, is situated on the eastern confines of the state of In. diana. and its mean lenh ail Kceadtti may be stated at about 70 and 20 miles, equal to 14000 sections on 900,000 acres. Its present population exceeds 70,000, and from this data we have 50 inhabitants for every section of 640 acres. In 1810, this portion of the state contained only 7,310 white persons. At that period this whole territory was one county. It is now aubdivided into several ; namely, Franklin, Union, Fayette, and Wayne, parts of Dearborn, Henry, Randolph and Preble counties, the latterof which is situa ted in the state of Ohio. Its surface, commencing at the sources of this Ri ver is level, and in some place too wet for tillage, the water is sluggish in its course, but soon gains acceleration in .a ai;. auvm iUv dis tance of 20 miles : after which it rolls onward with about the same velocity until it disembogues into the great Miami River four miles from its mouth. The appearance which its surface throughout presents, is, that of a plane originally 6mooth with but little inclination, and that from time immemo rial the abrations of water has gradu ally deformed its surface in what may be denomiated hills and hollows, this deformity is more strikingly exhibited in the vicinity of Brookville than per haps any other place, at this point the two main (east and west branches) unites and by their currents made such deep incision in the primitive plane, that no portion of its original features remains. The apex of some ofthose eminences is at least 300 feet above the current that washes their base. The ad vantages which have resulted from this disruption are great, besides furnishing numerous sites for propelling machine ry ttie current nas in many place exrocks,horizontily disposed, which are'of i incalculable benefit for architectural purposes, and form declevities, from which gushes numerous pure springs of water, throughout their whole course many of which are sufficiently copious to propel machinery for carding wool and cotton. Added to these there are other advantages that this state of things has produced, that we should not lose sight of in our general review of the geology of this section of country. When we take an extended view of the numerous ramifications of the Whitewater nver, over the whole surrace of this delightful section ot the state, we at once oenoia, mac notomy almost every farm is irrigate, but drained of all the surplus water produced from rains, which otherwise would remain and produce, in time, diseases incident to all countries where such state of things exist. This river traItroreoa this lorrifnra Lino-itiullnallir -il i j a--following its various meandering,, its length upwards oflOO mile! It j fes in latitude 40 10 and its mouth 'is n 39 N. The summit from which the remote branches of this river issues, are as much elevated perhaps as any in the state, and is more than three hundred feet higher than that part of the Miami river into which it empties. The reader will from this exhibit, at once perceive, that the plane of the dis trict under review, has an inclination of more, upon an average, than three feet per mile; which explains oa ac
count, for the numerous sites for mills s
which are to be seen almost in view of each other, throughout the whole distance to near its mouth. The timber of this region is generally of a quality suitable for building, though the greater proportion of the forestt reesare sugar and beech, comprising perhaps three fourths of the growth. Oak of different species, together with walnut, hickory, poplar and ash, and almost every kind in the western country, are found intermix! in a greater or less proportion. There are not less than eighty towns or vilinhabitants. Koaas nave oeen locaiea ana iimuc passtuic m urection, and but a short distance from each other in every neighborhood. Health and abundance prevails, and surplus, to a large amount, of different articles of produce are sent to Cincinnati and other cities, which returns mostly in cash ; the scarcity of which is not felt as much as in other sections of the state. There is a constant drain, however, of the precious metal, through the bands oi tne mcrcnanr. which returns in the form of such ar ticles as the taste and wants of its citi zens require, amounting perhaps to upwards of 300,000 dollars per annum. Large quantities of them arc disposed of on a credit, which in some instance have resulted in losses to the owners,1 hut nerhans in no section of country' west of the Alleghany monntains, of the same extent, are there fewer fail ures than in this. The people possess the means and energy to procure an ample living and economy in the man agement of their concerns generally. To sum up what we have to say further in a few words relative to this sub ject, in a general point of view, this district as to natural aavaniages in rapct to timber, vtone, water power, quality of soil and proximity to navi gation, dec, is not equalled, much less surpassed, by any other of equal contiguous extent west of the Miami and east of the Mississippi river. I will in another number give a more particular discrlption of the natural advantages, and present prosperity f Wayne county. P. n . v a mr my iS J FLOOD. The Flood of last week was so severely destructive, we had expected to learn particulars. Excepting a terrible rushing of water from the raving back of Hammondsport Tuesday nignC which inundated the whole square of lbs village, eyt away and undermined a number of buildings, nearly ruined a new furnace damages estimated at 83,000 no certain accounts have been communicated to us. The following is copied from the Elmira Gazette of Saturday: Flood. This region of country has been visited the past week by the greatest freshet that has occurred during the last 25 years. The rain of Saturday and Sunday, swelled the Chemung river to a high pitch, and followed by that of Monday and Tuesday, it caused the most devastating flood ever recollected by the inhabitants. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, vast quantities of lumber, from the Tioga, Canisteo, Cowanesque and Conhocton branches ef the Chemung, and the distance between this village and their junction, past this place. Frequently two and three rafts were seen in close contact with each other, some of them well loaded with shingles, and entire, with the loss perhaps of one or both oars, borne down by the impetuous current with out the probability of saving any portion of their valuable contents. At a law estimate, at least two millions feet of lumber has been lost, or mostly so, to the inhabitants of the head waters of our river. The corresponding rise in the waters of Newton, Seely, and South Creeks, has laid the country thro' their whole course under contribution. Three bridges on South Creek have oeen carried away, and in fact, we understand there is but one bridge ia the town of Soutbport left. The loss in the destruction of Milldams on the streams in that town is unexampled. The bridge over New town Creek at St. TutUe's mill, is so much injured as to require rebuilding. Several mill dams above the HorseHeads have been swept away. The of all the streams, has been great. 1 he bridge across the nver opposite this village hat been injured to some extent by the undermining of one of the piers oa the south side of the river. The Turnpike between Horse-Heads and Havana is much damaged. The Chemung Canal is more or less injured n the feeder, and between the Sum. mit Level and the Seneca Lake, the embaakment in several places having been washed away no correct estimate can as vet be made of the loss sustained by the state. The dam at the bead of the feeder, as far as we have beard. is safe.
