in excellent purpose. The South:rn politicians cited it as evidence hat he was opposed to thetaritt, the Western and Kastcrn politician as jroof that, he was favorable to it. It seems capable of as many interpretations as any ancient wizard's prediction or a response of the Delphic Oracle. The Senate of Indiana asked the General for a direct avowal of his sentiments, upon certain public concerns, and he sends them, in answer, a puzzlewhich had been perplexing all parties for about four years Such is the General's frankness Such is his respect for the people! for public opinion!

This letter seems to bear the General's own especial impress. It is marked with the egotism, cant, and absurdity, that usually characterize his productions. He insinuates that an ''unfriendly disposition" might have dictated the application to hitn, by the canting profession that his respect for those who made it. forbids him to entertain such an idea, llhis is in the true style ot the Swartwout

letter.-,^ The assertion that he regrets being called out lest his appearance before the public at this time, may be attributed, a« has already been the case, to improper motives," ia another precious piece of cant 1 he General had just been upon a long iournev purposely to catch applause. That this was the sole^ object and end of his exhibition at New Orleans, is believed and felt by every one. After that adventure, to talk ot rfigrrts upon account of appearances, is neither more nor less than silly affectation. It exposes him to the contempt of his opponents, it not to that of his friends and eltects for him no single useful or beneficial purpose. But the mast egotistical, canting and absurd part ot the letter is that where he asserts his "vieirsof constitutional power ana American policy were imbibed, in no il,"rl'ee• IN THE 'l'JMES VHKVAOES OF THE INVOLUTION/'if is difficult to decide wnctlier t..e extravagance of this pretension is more calculated to provoke risibility, or its profligacy to excite (Usgust-

ple of Venus His principal companion and confidant^seems to have been one John Overton, who cannot be considered a sage of the revolution, and I never heard that Lewis Uohards was esteemed a sage of any period.—But this is a subject that ought not to be treated lightly. On the contrary an assertion so destitute of all truth and made so obviously for the purpose of conveying a false estimate of himself, deserves the severest reprehension. What can be more contemptible, what more detestable, than a false claim to have participated in transactions of distinction, and to have associated with men of eminence? Its empty boast is its least exceptionable characteristic. The base purpose for which it is put forth ought to cover a man with infamy. When a man vaunts himself "uninfluenced by the hopes of personal aggrandizement" and boasts that he has ''always been a consistent republican," we can smile at the folly, & concede that all is said in simple sincerity. But when a man like Gen. Jackson attemps to make himself an actor in the scenes of the revolution, and an associate with the sages who conducted it, he being at the time a mere child, he deserves the unmitigated scorn of every honest man, because it is manifest that he does it for the purpose of reccommending himself, and of promoting his advancement to a station he is in no respect qualified to occupy

1 NEW-YORK, April 9.

By the ship Samuel Robertson, Capt. Cf^oate, arrived here yester day, we have received a London paper of the 26th. and a Liverpool of the 27th of February. This last, (the Courier,) gives us the Turkish Manifesto, which we lay before our readers as a document of considerable interest at tbe present time. We have stated its substance alraady. It announces a distinct determination on the part of the Porte to reject the interference of the Allies for the settlement of Greece, de-" nounces the hestile spirit of Russia in the plainest terms, and calls upon all the faithful to rally around the Government and contend for their religion Still it is not properly a declaration ot war, and it is difficult to conceive that she can be so infatuated as to venture on actual hostilities, which can only end in her ruin The Monitcur and Gazette de France, express jireat surprise at the tenor and tooe of this paper but still declare their hopes that peace will be preserved. We ob serve, by the way, that the authen ticily of the document has been questioned in some of the English papers but it appears to be gener

received as genuine. THE TURKISH MANIFESTO

Even the

that all Mussulmen naturally hate the Infidels, and that the infidels on their side are the enemies ot Mussulmen that Russia, above all, has a particular hatred of Islamism, and that she is the chief enemy of the Sublime Porte.

justice on a good number ol t«e cbels of the Morea, of Negropont, of Arcarnania, of Missolonghi, of A- .. thens, and other places on the conti- ,• •.*- nent. The rebels of the Morea, and of the isles of Foyer, dared, at tho jt very beginning of these troubles, to .. •. •1' engage with the Mussulmen they killed a great number of them thf»y reduced their wives and their children to bondage, and, under the name of the'4Governmentof Greeca" they committed unheard of excesses. For many years, considerable forces, both military and naval, were sent against them but our land troops, discouraged by the want of pay, did not display the requisite ardor our fleet did not succeed on account of the ancient disorganization of the arsenal. The matter being spun out, other Europeans, as well as the '*-l Russians, animated by ambition, furnished, secretly, every kind of assistance to the rebels, either by pronaises or deeds, and thus became the chief cause of the prolongation of our troubles. At last, led away, by the by the subtlety and insinuations of Russia, England and France united themselves to her, and, under the pretext that their commerce suffered by the long continuance of these troubles, they prevailed on the Greeks, by every kind of artifice, entirely to renounce their duties as (Rayahs) tributaries.-

It was at different times proposed to the Sublime Porte, no longer to in- ,, terfere with the affairs of the Greek* but to give them a form of independent government to separate them a establish among them a chief, as Wallachia and Moldavia to grant Tl. them their liberty, on condition ot an annual tribute. Such, nearly, were the vain proposals that were made. As it is evident, that thin pretence of liberty tended to nothing else, which may Heaven forbid! thau to make fall into the hands of the in- .. fidelsthe whole of those countries in Europe & Asia, where the Greeks were mixed with the Mussulmen-— to placo by degrees the Rayahs in the place ot the Ottomans, and the Ottomans in the place of the Rayahs _,: to convert, perhaps, our mosques in» to churches, and to ring bells' within. them in a word, to annihilate Islam-r ism with case and promptitude neither reason, nor law, nor policy, nor religion, could admit of such propu--sals being accepted. The Sublime Porte gave repeatedly, both by wri* ting and word of mouth, the necessary answers, with all official formality, and according to thetenor of the treaties. Althouglv the object of the Franks had been ob-. viotts from the beginning, and althoV everything announced that at las»,? a the sword alone must answer their proposals, nevertheless, not to trou-. ble the repose of Mussulmen. and, on the other hand, to gain the necessary time for warlike preparations, the Sublime Porte endeavored tb temporize (sefforaca de temporiser^ jas much as possible, by satisfactory answers and official conferences on

the subject of the dishonor and of| injury which the proposals ot the three powers would cause to the^ empire and to the nation.

It is here proper to observe, "that although the demands at Akerman, by the Russians on the subject

Up to tlua time, most of the articles had been executed, the conference respecting the persons to be indemnified, and respecting Servia, had also been en-. tered upon, and although these two affairs were not of a character to be arranged with a good grace, they were, nevertheless, taken into consideration as acts of violence.
