TO THE PUBLIC. TEMPERANCE HOUSE, At Bellona, Yates Co. N. Y. B EING fully convinced that ardent spirit is not an indispensable article for a Public House, but is a great evil, and will not long be tolerated by an enlightened com- munity, I have determined to dispense with it altogether. My grateful acknowledgements are here- with tendered to °a generous public, for twen- tySy-ears' liberal patronage, and renewed ex- ertions will now be made' to merit a contin uance of the same. I humbly trust the go people of the land, who may happen to^ass this way, will not shun my house, because I do not offer them poison to drink. MARTIN GAGE. Bellona, Yates Co. N. Y. Jan. 1,1834.

The Lehigh soft coal ignites more easily and bums more freely than the hpr.d, and on that account is preferred by many consumers. Every exertion will be made to give.vessels the utmost possible dispatch. It is to be un- derstood that they must take their regular turn to load; and no claim for demurrage should they wait for their turn, or claim for any other cause beyond the Company's con- trol can be allowed. The Managers, how- ever, believe that the facilities possessed by the Company will enable them to conduct their business with regularity and dispatch. .. No.advantage of credit being gained by de- lay, it is respectfully suggested that orders should be sent early in the season, when freights and insurance are generally obtain- ed on the best terms. With every disposition to accommodate their correspondents, the Managers will use their best endeavors, as heretofore, to procure vessels, when so re- quested, on the lowest terms, but they would recommend that their customers shouMiien- gage vessels, for themselves, wheneveripracti- cable. -:.iCy -s- The Managers have further directje'dsmejto say that should they make any reduction this year from the prices for the export trade,, named in this circular, persons giving previ- ous orders shall receive the benefit of such reduction; at the same time, the Managers do not preclude themselves from advancing the price with the advance of the season, should they deem .it expedient; but orders accepted will not be subject to any advance.

'Twos oarly day, and minliylit streamed Soft through a quiet room, That hushed, hut not forsaken, seemed Still, but with nought of gloom. For thero, serene in happy age, Whoso hopo is from above, A Father communed with the pago Of Heaven's recorded love. Pure full tho beam, and meekly bright, On his grey, holy hair, And touched tbe pago with tondercat light, As if its elirine were there!' But oh I that Patriarch's aspect shone With something lovelier far, A radiance all tho spirit's own, Caught not from sun or star. Some words of life e'en thon had met His calm, benignant cyoj Some ancient proinisoybrcattiing yet Of immortality; Some martyr's prayer, wherein the glow Of quenchless faith survives: For every feature said—\ I knout That my Redeemer lives .'\ And silent stood his children by, Hushing their very breath, Before the solomu sanctity Of thoughts o'er sweeping death. Silent—yet did not each young breast With love and revetenco melt ? Oh! blest be those fair girls, and blost That home where God is felt. Jyattbc gJlhitort Office, at ^^^^^ lar regard tisJIhose qnaHtiesyvJuch are of 1 most importance to them in tHeir chappows. THe horses bred and reared by them are so' highly esteero$d in \Persia aiid fetch' sneh. good prices, that^ some ,af the tribes/ com- pelled by the'stretJgfii'br contrivance of the than our whol^ tribe can now make by traf- ficking in cattle for a twelvemonth.'\ These so much prized horses are consid- erably beyond the av.erage size of tbe animal in Persia. They measure from fifteen to six- teen Viands high, and io shape resemble an ^English carriage ho^se of the highest breed, Their unusual size is attributed to the fine .pWure lands on which they are reared; and theSasjpnishing capability of bearing fatigue which they exhibit, to their high blood and; the mnnnacjn which they are trained. The Turkomansl^de them with snaffles, and al- low them to gosloBching along with their necks loose. These pjunddrers train their horses as much as we-do our .racers prtun- ters; and before they begin th#ir expeditions, .they put them incomplete'condition. They have been known to go one hutidred and for- ty miles in twenty-fourhours; andtheirpre- datory parties have been ascertained to march,, without halting, from eighty to one hundred and ten miles daily, for a fortnight together. Before proceeding on a clutppow, the Tur- komans prepare some hard balls of barley- oitfeal, which equally serve for the subsistenceof themselves and their cattle, being, when wanted, soaked in water to fit them forHj^e. It is said to be customary with them in cross- ing the desert of Kermnn, and other deserts in which no water can be obtained, to open a vein in the shoulder of the horse and drink a little of his blood. They consider this to be as beneficial to the sinimal which loses the blood as to the rider who imbibes it. The number of poisons engaged in a chap- pow varies greatly. From thirty to fifty mounted robbers, with about half the num- ber of led horses, destined to bring away the spoil, is perhaps a fair average estimate.— They do not hesitate to make a bold dash into large towns, occasionally, but more fre- quently some flourishing village is the ob- ject of attack. This is sometimes made in the open day; and in an inconceivably short time the dwellings are pillaged, the fields often laid waste, the finest of the young men, women, and children, made slaves, and the whole party is on its homeward flight. Th e lirast resistance to them is fatal. The hous- es are then burnt, the old and feeble mur- dered, and all the property that cannot be carried away, destroyed. Their principal weapon is a spear, rudely formed, with a small piece of steel at the point, and gener- ally from ten to twelve feet long. This is in their hands, so very effective a weapon, that they hold all others in light estimation. \We were one day,\ says Sir John Mal- colm, \looking at a party of the king's guards, each of whom was armed with a sword, a spear, a pair of pistols and a dag- ger. Rnhain Beg (the Turkoman mention- ed before) tossed up his head in contempt, exclaiming,—'What is the good of all this arsenal?—What can a soldier want beyond a spear and a heart?'\ Nevertheless, the Turkomans have the bow and arrow also in use, but fire-arms are very-sparingly em- ployed. Their treatment of the prisoners they take in their chappows is, in the first instance, ter- ribly severe. A very recent traveller* in these countries relates that he sometimes met them i returning from their cha\ipows, and dragging their captives after their horses by a cord, at •the end of which -was-a hook so inserted through the flesh as to embrace the collar- bone. This savage process, however, seems to be only resorted to in order to subdue the spirits of the more refractory prisoners, who are thus made to keep up on foot with the beast to which they are attached, until quite exhausted, when they are placed on the back of a horse. Capt,. Christie's account, in Pottinger'%Travels, of the manner in which the Belochees treat tho victims of their chappows, so well illustrates the subject, that we shall make use of his statement. When first taken, the prisoners regard themselves as the most unfortunate beings in existences and, indeed, the treatment they then expe; rience is of the harshest and most discour- aging description. They are blindfolded, and tied on camels, and in that mannertraus- portod, to prevent the possibility of their knowing how to return; and, to deter them from even wishing to revisit their native soil, the bair of the women and the beards of the men are cut on\ and the roots totally destroy- ed by a preparation of quick-lime. But they are soon reconciled to„their fate, and becomp attached and faithful servants. Capt. Chris- tie expressed his surprise to the sirdar of Nooshky, that his numerous slaves should work so dilligently without any person t o oversee them. \Why not?\ he replied, \they are clothed, fed, and treated like the other members of my family; and if they i do not labor, they are well aware that bread will be scarce, and that they must suffer as well as ourselves. It is their interest to pro- duce plenty, for they know that they get their share of whatever falls to my lot.\— Capt. Christie assented to the justness of bis observation, but added that he should have thought them likely to ran away.— \Nothing of the kind!\ replied the old sir- daf, \ they are too wise to attempt it. In the first place, they do not know the way to their own country-, and even admitting that they did, and that they wished to return, they are much liappier here, and have less to care for. Were they at home, they must toil fully a s , hard as thejfj do now; besides which, they I would have to think of their clothes, their KonseSj.and their food. Now thay look t o me for all 'their uecessaries; and, -in short, that you may judge of their feelings, I need olSly inform you that the greatest p'unish- ment we can infljct upon them is to_ send them about their business.\ We tliinl^t very likely that the slaves themselves wouM not have spoken in a tone very different from that of their masted Slavery, iu Mahomedati countries, as compared with the geneyalcon- dition of tWpeople, is far from presenting a disadvantageous contrast.

The works of Sir Walter Scott have made most readers well acquainted with the \ fo- rays,\ or predatory incursions, by which the borders of England and Scotland were so much disturbed previously to the union of the two crowns. From the Tigris to the In- dus, transactions very similar to such forays are known by the name, of \Chappows;\ and we imagine that a short account of them will not be without interest, as affording ma- terials for a comparison between the state of this country in the sixteenth and preceding centuries, and a considerable part of Asia in the nineteenth. Besides the towns and villages which this extent of country, under different rulers, contains, it is abundantly spotted with the encampments of wandering tribes, who, un- der different names, are probably all mem- bers of the same great Turkish family, which has extended its ramifications so much far- ther westward'than the limits we have assign- ed to the chgppoiB in the foruf'we purpose to describe it. Th's restriction is necessary, for the foray in some form or other, diversi- fied only by the peculiar habits of a people, exists wherever a government is weak and a frontier much exposed. As we haveto con- sider these tribes only with regard.: to the chappow, in which their usages \differ very little, it will not be necessary to quote their specific denominations, although we Would be understood as speaking gerferallyioY the people called.
