THE JEWS. In the a American Monthly Magazine !c Critical Review" for July, we observe the review of a discource,by M. H. Noah Esq. (Editor of the National Ad vocate, an able paper published in N. York.) delivered at the consecration of a synagogue in that city. The following extract from that discourse is highly interesting ; as it exhibits the present views, hopes and resources of the Jews, and breathes a spirit of charity which might be profitably contemplated by the Christian, " Never were prospects for the restoration of the Jewish nation to their ancient rights and dominion more brilliant than they arc at present. There are upwards of seven millions of Jews known to be in existence throughout the world, a number greater than at any period of our histoiy.and possessing more wealth, activity, influence ami talents than any body of people of their number on the earth. The signal for breaking the Turkish sceptre in Europe will be their emancipation ; they will assist to establish civilization in European I'urkcy, and may revive commerce and the arts in Greece ; they will march in triumphant numbers and possess themselves once more of Syria and take their ranks aimong the governments oi the earth. This is not fancy. I l.avc been too much among them in Europe and Afiica I am too well acquainted with their views and sentiments in Asia, to doubt their intentions. They hold the purse strings, and can wield the sword ; they can bring 200,000 men into the field. Let us then hope that the day is not far distant, when from the operations of liberal and enlightened measures, we may look towards that country where our people have established a mild, just and honorable government accredited by the world, and admired by all good men. Let Us not seek the errors of other faiths, but calmly and peaceably pursue our own, in which there are no errors. Let us resp ect and ssMst all religions winch acknowledge God, and wl.j -o pr. 'ph s are justice and mercy. We, of all others, can hold out the hand ot toleration ; the time Will come when the wanderer who has been led astray in search of other -;o '.s will acknowledge the unity and omnipotance oi the God of bra!, when persecution shall cease, and the groan of oppression be heard no m rtte. Be tween two c ?d men professing different faiths na difference exists ; both are born Cnual both have a right to worship the Almighty in his own way ; the road to honor should be open to both, for both must pursue the same path tu immor talitv ' EXPEDITION, An expedition of discovery to the Rocky Mountains, and the N. West Coast, is now fitting out by the enterprising government of the state of N.York, un ter the superintendance of able and si ientifie men. A Steam-Boat is building to accompany the expedition, and il is supposed will be able to pas . up to the source of the Missouri. An extract of a letter from a gentleman in X. York to his friend in Albany, mentions, that it lias been ascertained that there is a passag through the Rocky Mountains ; and at the distance of about 4 miics after passing the mountains, a branch of the Columbus commences, running to the Pacific ocean. It is intended to take the Steam-Boat to pieces at the mountains, and re-build her in that river. The expedition is to traverse the continent by water, and to be absent about two years. It will pass the first winter on thik side of the Rocky Mountains. Pitts. Caz.

LONDON, Sett. 23. Recent letters from Madrid state thafc serious disturbances have broken out in the garrison at Corunna. The soldic. , who had received no pay for more ttiuii a ear, and were destitute of every necessary, plundered the maikets, and were on the point of pillaging tho warehouses and shops, totally disregardij j the orders ef the officers. A forced loan was made on some of the richc it of the inhabitants, and the troops, having received part of their pay, returned to duty. Accounts from Copenhagen confirm our former rumors of dissatisfaction in Norway, which, however, in no manner affect the security oi the King of bwcden. jHx-Lm-ChafieUt) Seit. 13. It is known, that the King of Prussia will arrive here on the 24th ; the Emperor of Austria on the 25th, and the Emperor of Russia on the 27th inst. Con tracts of provisions. Sec. for the tables of the Sovereigns have been entered into :.t very considerable sums: the foresters have received orders relative to the quantity of game they are bound to provide weekly. Arrangements have been made to procure the finest fish that our rivers produce ; and By-chariots are e -tablished for the conveyance of oysters ami salt water fish from Antwerp to Aix la-Chapelle, with the utmost rapidity. The intended facilities to the commercial intercourse between the West-Riding of Yorkshire and the United St.ites, are now afforded by the establishment of a Consular office in Leeds. ocr which Wihiam Davy, Esq. the American Consul, presides. LONDON', Sett. 23. As the attention of the several Sovereigns and Ministers at the proposed Congress lias been called to the question of mediation between Spain and bet South-American province l, and pledges have been given that the basis proper d shall be liberal, we understand the following to be the grounds stated by the moderate party of ! ndependents ; on w hich, if the sub ject is actually brought forward, any deliberation likely to be effectual can be held. I. General oblivion of the past, an 1 no injury or molestation to the persons or properties of those who may have taken part in the revolution. 2 Perpetual abolition of the Inquisition and Torture 3. Perpetual abolition of all exclusive privilege. (Fuetoti) all persor s being cqualln the rye of the law, and 11 to be rewarded or punished according to their merits or demerits. 4. Abolition of all Government Mo nopolies (Estancos) and of inland Custom Houses. 5. Freedom of the Press ; of Commerce with all nations ; of Agriculture, and of all kinds of industry. 6. Establishments of Chambers of Representatives. 7. The Kin g to sanction all acts of the Cnambcrs. 8 Religious toleration ; but the Catholic Worship to predominate. 9. Perpetual abolition of ecclesiastical Tithes ; but the expenccs attending Divine Worship and its Ministers to be def raved from contributions to be raised on 4 account of the state, in order to avoid the enmity between the Pastor and his flock, w hich is generally produced by ecclesiastical imposts and the irremediable a buse inseparable from them. 10 The King to non.inate to all employments, givine them to Americans and Spaniards indiscriminately. I I. The Military force to be composed of Natives alone, according to regulations to be made by the Chambers, with the King's approbation. 12. All Trials to be public, and by means of a jury 13. The Judges to be for life, independent ofthr King; but the King to have the appointment of them14. Foreign powers to have Consuls in Amcric u 15.
