We learn by the Eastern papers, received on Wednesday evening (June 7) by the steamboat HENRY CLAY, that a vessel has arrived at New York from England, bringing London papers three days later than the last previous advices. The principal article of intelligence is that the fortress of Missolonghi still held out. It appears certain that it had not fallen into the hands of the Turks, at the time mentioned in previous accounts. It is a very singular circum. stance, that an event should be described with so much particularity, and obtain such general credence, without any real foundation. (verbatim) EXPLORATION 97 H Dec. 1; ed: 3/2 Mr. Reynolds, preparing an expedition to the south pole, states that several ladies have contributed handsomely, and a young gentleman in New York subscribed $15,000, and will go himself.

FIRE DEPARTMENT 99 H Jan. 27:2/5 - Mr. Case of Cuyahoga county presented a petition FOREIGN RELATIONS 100 H Mar. 24; ed: 3/1 - In our preceding columns will be found a sketch of a speech of John Randolph. "It is characteristic of the man, and affords some clue to the grounds of the opposition which is organizing, or attempted to be organized, against the Panama Mission. The (2) (1) (4) (1) CLEVELAND NEWSPAPER DIGEST JAN. 1 TO DEC. 31, 1826 Abstracts 101 FOREIGN RELATIONS (Cont'd) next day he spoke two hours on the same subject; or at least, his remarks were elicited by the same question, but would apply nearly as well to Symmes' theory, or any other theory, religious or political. 4 101 H Mar. 31; ed: 3/1 It will be seen by the proceedings of the U.S. Senate, which will be found in another part of our paper, that the mission to the Congress of Panama has received the sanction of that body, and the nomination of ministers made by the President some time ago, is confirmed. On Mar. 17 the President transmitted to the House, in compliance with a resolution of Feb. 5, so much of the correspondence between the government of the United States and the new States of America or their ministers, respecting the proposed Congress and such information respecting the general character of that expected congress as was in his possession, and which, in his opinion, could be communi. cated without prejudice to the public interest. The observations of the President are long, occupying several newspaper columns, and afford a satisfactory view of the objects and probable benefits of the proposed mission. Our contracted limits will not admit of their publication this week; but as we expect to issue our next paper on a large sheet, our next publication will contain the message, and perhaps some of the accompanying documents. The minority in the Senate appear to have contested the question inch by inch. Nothing was omitted which was calculated to procrastinate the decision or baffle the majority. It is sufficiently obvious that the opposition were governed by other motives than such as proceed from a sincere desire to advance the interests and promote the honor of the Republic. Had the proposed mission been recommended by a president from the "ancient dominion," or from any State farther south, we might, it is true, have found John Randolph arrayed against it, as he generally has been against everything liberal and republican in principle everything which did not exactly tally with the principles of a Virginia aristocrat and slaveholder; but would such men as Van Buren and Holmes have. a word to say in opposition to a similar proposition from a president of their own choice. "No one believes that the organized corps in the Senate, or their associates, have any other object than to embarrass the administration, and pave their own way to power. The people will never put much confidence in a party which would have this nation treat another disdainfully, simply because that nation has practically adopted the principle, theoretically sanctioned by the Congress of '76, that 'all men are created free and equal'; and when a State like Virginia, which sets itself up as the champion of democratic doctrines and 'state rights,' upholds an erratic misanthrope in his declaration, that what Mr. Jefferson and the patriots of the revolution considered as selfevident, was not true, we may well rejoice that the sceptre has departed from Judah, and congratulate ourselves on the decreasing power and relative importance of that once influential member of the Union." (2) CLEVELAND NEWSPAPER DIGEST JAN. 1 TO DEC. 31, 1826 Abstracts 102 - 106 FOREIGN RELATIONS (Cont'd) 102 H Apr. 7; ed: 3/1 We take pride and pleasure in laying before our readers the message of the President to the House of Representatives, relative to the Panama mission. "The facts adduced by the Executive, and the clear and forcible manner in which he urges his reasons and arranges his arguments in favor of the measure, must carry conviction to every unprejudiced mind." 103 - H Apr. 7; ed: 3/1 By a recent arrival at New York from South America, it is understood that the governments of Chili and Peru have declined sending ministers to the Congress at Panama. "This story appears not to be entitled to much credit." 104 H May 5; ed: 3/2 Congress has agreed to adjourn on May 22. In "This vote shews the strength of the opposition in that body, which is even less than was expected." FRUIT & VEGETABLES 105 H Oct. 13:3/2 A radish measuring five and one-half feet in length was pulled recently in the garden of a gentleman of this viilage. GAMES & SPORTS Horse Racing 106 H Apr. 28; ed: 3/1 - The Race, - We observe in the last Ravenna COURIER, the following remarks respecting the contemplated race between the "Portage Polly" and "Billy": Considerable interest is felt, and much anxiety has already been exhibited, on the subject of the anticipated Race at Cleaveland. The sportsmen of that place have lately beaten the "Florizelle" of Painesville, it is said, four rods in a hundred. The effect of their success, has been a challenge to run against the Polly. (4) (2) (2) (1) A request was immediately sent for the Polly to be taken to Cleaveland, and although the gentleman who owns her was, and is still absent, her keeper accepted the order, and she is now in that place, under the care and skilful management of Mr. Parker. We have understood that she is to run over the Cleaveland course, on Saturday the 6th day of May next, against a black horse called "Billy," for a purse of Four Hundred Dollars. Polly is deservedly a favorite in the county, and notwithstanding the good points and qualifications of her antagonist, her friends are very sanguine of her success. We hope that their expectations will not be disappointed. "At the race above alluded to, between the Billy and Florizella, the former came out only 18 or 20 feet ahead. Another trial of speed took place on Tuesday last (April 25), between the same horses, when the |
