Such arc the triumphs of steam power. 7 cut of firrfect Vacci y a rov All persons should insist on the family surgeon using the test discovered by Dr. Bryce, of Edinburgh. It consists in vaccinating on the other arm, from the one first vaccinated. If the fit st has been perfect, both po?tules will ripen precisely at the same ti ne ; ifthisdocs not take place, the constitution had not been properly affected, and vaccination must be repeated. This simple and easy scrutiny ouht never to be neglected. r.At.Ti:tonc, April C. I. AT 11 ST FROM ENCLANI). Hvthe Packet ship Sylvanus Jenkins, Caplain Allen, from Liverpool, the New-York Commercial has received hies of London papers to the 13th of February and Liverpool of the 1 4th. RUSSI A AND TURKEY Our correspondent writes as follows: We have letters this morning from the Russian Head Quarters, whichare dated the 5th .an. at which time the snow had fallen in such large quantities, as to pt event any operations, i iv road s being impassable. The Emperor ol Russia was expected at Abo, the capital ot I'hdlatid, or the 14th Jan. His arrival would bj followed by the convocation of a diet, lor t.io purpose of organising the army of Fin1 o:i the war footing It was understood Hut 20,0v)0 of this force would join the Ruv;,.a:i force in Watlachia, aid thai the same i.i'iijcr of Polish troops would likewise be .. ; t. hir advices from Wallachia, this afteri ri-ich to the IvSth Jan. The exactions ;' the Russian force had been so great and i.icesvuit, that many of the peasants had a hmdoned their houses and fled into the wovkU. Partial insuri ections had shewn

incmsclvcs in various parts of the province,

is represented in these letters, as a uc-

The preparations of the Sultan, for the enruing campaign, arc ol a very extensive description. The advices from Bosnia this morning, mention that the province was tranri':t but that a deputation had been sent to the Sultan, requesting a guaranty for preservi'n: tin privileges of the province. A force -.f 3vno men was to be drawn from this part j bout, the brplnniug of January, and a further icrcc of nearly the same number the latter

end of the month, In addition to tficscTTDr

000 of the Asiatic troops were to be marched

to the frontier to open the campaign. Heports were current, that the Albanians under the Pacha of Scutari, had revolted that in consequence he could not comply with the

orders of the sultan, to march into Macedo

nia. Reports wore likewise current, that

six Turkish ships of war had been lost in the

Dardannclles duting a hurricane. Tehcpan

Oglou with a force ol 34,000, has marched a

gainst Count Largiron, but we have no ac

count of tho result yet. Not a doubt exists

but the Turks have fully resolved upon a

winter campaign, so soon as the weather will

admit of active operations.

STILL LA I EH Hy the arrival at Dos

ton of the ship Clematis, Capt. Low, from

Havre, papers lrorn Paris tothc 15th February, are received. The Boston Patriot states, that no political or commercial intelligence of peculiar interest has been brought by this arrival. The impression at Havre at the time Capt. Low sailed, was, that there would be another campaign between Russia and Turkey, the efTorts of the Allied Powers for the restoration of peace having proved unavailing. The leading articles of commerce remained at about the same prices; there was a slight improvement in the Cotton market and a depression in the Grain market. LATEST FROM MEXICO.

Correction It ncc of the A. Y. Journal of

Commerce, Olfice of the Hee, March 19, 0 o'clock P. M. By the schooner Monk, from Vera Cruz, whence she suiled on the 9th innt. we

He intended to leave Vera Cruz on the 11th for the capital. The new President will take his sat on the 1st of April. A Large number of Spaniards arc emigra

on the part ot the uovcrnmcnt.

The fcl owing report of the assassination of

Holivar, is contained in nlmost all the evening

papers received from New oik yesterday What decree of credit is due to the repoit ve have no means j ascertain : Rtfiortcd aasassinaticTi of Bolavar. We learn lron capt Clark, of the brig Gen, Paez. who arrived here in nineteen days horn Cua

coe, that a report was in circulation there, which was generally credited, that Roli a had been assassinated that his troops, a mounting to about 5000 men, hai fled and that all communication between Valencia and the other parts of the country had been cm off. Our readers will no doubt remember thaan attempt was some months since made to destroy the President of Columbia, and that he miraculously escaped. We shall await with much anxiety the receipt ol more direct advices, to ascertain the truth or falsity ol the rumour A". Y, Gazette Vienn a Jan. 20 The report that was in circulation here that the Porte had accedid to the mediating Powers, and invited the Ambassadcrs of France and England to return to Constantino plo, is not confirmed, and appears to have originated in a stock jobbing speculation A Russian courier ai lived here to day on his way to Italy, and an English couiicr ar rived from London. The Canadian Giant A man is advertis ed as a curiosity in one ol ihe Montreal pa

pers, who is stated to be 6 Icet 4$ inches high, 6 feet 10 inches round the waist, 40 inches round the calf of the leg. and 3 feet 10 inches round the thigh. He is 63 years of age, and weighs upwards of 600 ibs. He is to remain only a few days in Montreal, on his way tothc United States, and thence to Europe. A Vienna article of the 15th of February, says that the news of the death of pope Leo the 12th, had arrived there on that day. Pahis, February 25 We are informed, says the Conititutionel, that an offensive and defensive alliance between Russia and Prussia is definitively concluded ; it is added, that another great power solicited to maintain an armed neutiality, with 100,000 has been acceded to. It is also reported, that the army of the Morca, under the command of marshal Maison, is to be increased to 25,-00. This display of strength may enable him to restore Cirecce to her ancient limits, comprehending Attica, Ucotia, Thessally 5c Epirus. The John Bull of March 1st, says u The present state of the Spitalfield weavers by tar exceeds any former extremity of a similar nature, in depth and extent ot distress. From the Baltimore Rtfiublican, March 25. 1 HL HON Ttt M AS T. MOORE, OF KY. This gentleman, whose name, and whose services in the recent important political struggle, arc familiar to the Jacksonians of Maryland, being in this city on his way to his domicil in Kentucky, for the purpose of ma king his domestic arrangements preparatory to embarking upon the honorable mission to which his political friends are pleased that the president has appointed him, the friends of Jackson in Baltimore embraced the opportunity of evincing their respect for his charactcr, and approbation of his political conduct, by inviting him to partake of a public

that he declines the invitation, and while wt should have been pleased that our friends could have enjoyed the opportunity of forming a more intimate personal acquaintanci

with him, we arc so well pleased with the i easons which he assigns for declining our in vitation they are, in our opinion, so honorable to him that we cannot say wc regret it. Bcltzhoovers Hotel, Baltimore, March 23, 1829. Gentlemen I have received your invitation to participate of a public dinner with a portion of my lcllow citizens ol Baltimore. 1 have received with grateful feelings, and shall always fondly cherish the recollection of, this mark of their personal kindness and of their approbation of my political course n the recent contest for the presidency. With my humble talents, and in my limited spheie, 1 have done what I could to sustain republican principles, and give triumph to the people. Far from feeling that 1 have done more than my duly, I only regret that I could not accomplish more than i did. It would give inc sincere pleasure to unite with my follow citizens, and especially with so worthy a portion of those of the republican and patriotic city of Baltimore in the personal intercourse and hilarity of a public entertainment But it has pleased the president placing, I am sure, too high an estimate on my merits and qualifications to appoint rut to a most honorable public station. I) n ing the recent conflict, the people saw men, high in office, travel through the country seeking occasions at dinners and gatherings to denounce even private citizens, and throw the weight of their olTicial influence into the scale of a party, for the retention of power unfairly acquired. This conduct was condemned as m abandonment of duty and direliction of principle, corrupting in its effects, and dangerous to the purity of elections Men have changed, but our principles have r.ot. While holdine: a public station under the executive of the United States, I feel that I ought to do no act which can be construed into a violation of those pure principles for wlrch wc have all 6o strenuously contended. I am, therefore obliged to decline your kind invitation; hut in this act. I beg you to be assured that I sacrifice the inclinations of tny heatt to my convictions of right and that I shall ever cherish this instance of the confidence and ftiendship of my political f Mentis in Baltimore, with a pleasure which no convivial enjoyment could enhance.

Accept for yourselves and those for whom

vou act, the assutancc of gratitude and e;
