The tEsylum referred grj is in the state-of New-York, the greatest stare in the Ameri- can confederacy. New-York contains 43,- 214 square^ miles, divided into fifty five counties' and having\$te hundred and eigh- ty %vefriPost towns and cities, containing one million five- hundred thousand inhabit- ants, \together with six million apes of cul- tivated land, improvemenfs in Agriculture and manufactures, \in trade and commerce, which include a valuation of Three Hun- dred Millions of dollars of Taxable prop- erty. One hundred ana\ fifty thousand Mi- litia, armed and equipped, a constitution founded ypon 'an equality of rights; hav- ing »o test -oaths, and reco'gnfzing no reli- gious distij&Gons^and seven thousand free schools and colleges affording the blessings 'of education to Four Hundred Thousand children. Such^s the great and increas- ing State to which the emigration of the Jews is directed. The desired splrHd' the state of New- York to which I hereby invite my beloved people \throughout p the \world in common with those of every*, religious denomina- tion, is'called G&ANB ISLAND, and on which I sftalLlay the foundation of a City of Refuge § be called ARARAT. Grand-Island irtthe Niagara River, is bounded by On|ario on the north, and Erie on the south, and within a few miles of eac|r of jJlose greats corqmercial Lakes.— The*lsla0d is nearly twelve miles in length, and varyHng from three to seven miles in breadth, andAontains upwards of seventeen thousand acres, of^emarkably rich and fer- tile land. Lake B^is about 270 miles in length, and border on the States of New- York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio; and wes- terly by the possessions of our friends and neighbors, the British subjects of Upper Canada. Trtis splendid Lake unites itself by means of navigable rivers, with Lakes St. Clair, Huron, Michigan, and Superior, embracing a lake shore of nearly 3000 miles; and by short canals, those vast sheets of water, will be connected with the Illinois and Mtesisippi rivers, thereby establishing a great and valuable internal trade to New- Orleans,, and the Gulf of Mexico. Lake- Ontario on the North, is 190 miles in length, and empties into the St. Lawrence, which passing tli?©ugh the province of Lower Ca- nada, carries the commerce of Montreal and Quebec to the Atlantic Ocean. Thus fortified to the right and left by the extensive commercial resources of the Great Lakes, and their tributary streams—within •4 miles of the Falls of Niagara, affording th&greatest water power in the world for manufacturing purposes—directly opposite the mdtith of the Grand Canal of 360 miles inland navigation, to the Hudson Ri- ver and City of New-York, having the fur trade of Upper Canada to the west, and al- so, the great territories towards the Rocky mountains and the Pacific ocean; likewise, the trade of the western states of America ; Grand Island may be considered as surroun- ded by every commercial, manufacturing and agricultural advantage, and from its location is pre-eminently calculated to be- come in time the greatest trading and com- mercial depot in'the new and better world. To men of worth and industry it has every substantial attraction: the capitalist will be enabled to employ his resources with un- doubted profit, and the merchant cannot fail to reap the reward of enterprize in a great and growing republic; but to the in- dustrious mechanic, manufacturer and ag- riculturalist, it holds forth great and impro- ving advantages. Deprived as our people have been for cen- turies of a right in the soil, they will learn with peculiar satisfaction, that here they can till the land, reap the harvest, and raise the flocks which are unquestionably their own ; and in the full and unmolested enjoy- ment of their religious rights, and of every civil impunity, together with peace fe plerr* ty, they can lift up their voice in gratitude to him, who sustained our fathers in the wilderness and brought us in triumph out of the land of Egypt; who assigned to us the safe keeping of his oracles, who proclaimed us his people, and who has ever walked be- fore us like a \cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night.\ In his name do I revive, renew and re- establish the Government of the Jewish Nation, under the auspices and protection of the constitution and law of the United States of America, confirming and perpetu- ating all our rights and privileges, our name, our rank, and our power among the nations of the earth, as they existed and were re- cognized under the government of the JUDGES. And I hereby enjoin it upon all our pious and venerable Rabbis, our Presidents and Elders of Synagogues, Chiefs of Colleges, and Brethren in au- thority throughout the world to circulate from the Bufalo Patriot, September 15, 1825. < REVIVAL OF THE JEWISH GOVERNMENT. It was known at the sate, of that beauti- ful and valuable tract called Grand tsland, a few miles below this Port v in the Niagara River, that ft wajs purchased in part byjh& friends of Major NOAH of JVew-York, a- vowedly to offer it as an asylum, for.-his brethren of the Jewish persuasion, who in the other parts of the world are much op- pressed ; and it was likewise ? knowrj $iat it was intended to.erect uponthe Island a Ci- ty called ARARAT. We ^are gratifiefi to perceive, by the documents in thi^day's pa- per, that coupled with4jhis colonization is a declaration of Independence^ and the' re-, vival of the Jewish government 'under the protection of the Uni|ed States, after j;he dispersion of that ancient and wealthy peo- ple for nearly 2,000 year$—and th>appoint- ment of Mr. Noah as first Judge. iMvas intended, pursuant to public notice, to celebrate the event on the Island, and a flag staff was erected fJr the Grand Stand- ard of Israel, and otti'er arrangements made ; but it was discovered that a sufficient number of boats could notice' procured in\ time to convey all those to the'Island who were desirous of witnessing the ceremonf, and the celebration took' place this day in this village, which was both interestrrig &nd impressive. At dawn*of day, a salute was, fired in front of the Cottft Tlouse, jwfcl from the terrace facing the^Lake. At 10 o'clock, the masonic and military compa- nies assembled in front of the Lodge,' anjd. at 11 the line of procession was formed, SS\ follows: Order of Cdtbrati&n.— Music, military, citizens, civil officers state ofncejA in uni-^ form, U. S. officers, president and trustees of the corporation, tyler, stewards, ent&red apprentices, fellow crafts, master masortjs senior and junior deacons, secretary arid treasurer, senior and junior wardens, masters of lodges, past master, rev. clergy, steward^ with corn, wine and oil, C Principal Architect, ^ Globe < with square, level V Globe ( and plumb 3 Bible, square and compass born by a master mason, the judge of Israel in black, wearing the judicial robes of crimson silk, trimmed with ermine and a richly embossed golden medal suspended from the neck ; a masfeV mason, royal arcli masons, knight templars. On arriving at the Church d<apr the troops opened to the right and left, and the pro- cession entered the aisles, the Band play- ing the Grand March from Judas MaccCe- bees. The full toned organ commenced its swelling notes performing the Jubilate. — On the Communion table lay the Corner Stone, with the following inscription. IN HEBREW. \ Hear O Israel, the Lord is our God.— The Lord is ONE.\ ARARAT, The Hebrew Refuge, founded by MORDECAI MANUEL NOAH, in the month of Tisri, 5586, correspon- ding with September, 1825, and in the 50th year of American Independence, y On the stone lay the silver cups with wine, corn and oil. The ceremonies commenced by the Mor- ning Venire, read emphatically by the Rev. Mr. Searl of the Episcopal Church. \ Before Jehovah's awful Throne,\ was sung bv the choir to the tune of Old Hun- dred. Morning prayer. First lessons from Jeremiah, 31st. Second lesson, Zeph. iii. 8th verse. Psalms for the occasion, 97, i'li, 99, 100, li7th psalm in verse. Ante Communion Service-r-Psalm in Hebrew— Benediction. Mr. Noah rose and pronounced a discourse or rather delivered a speech, announcing the reorganization of the Jewish Govern- ment and going through a detail of many points of intense interest, to which a crowd- ed auditory listened with profound attention. On the conclusion of the ceremonies the procession returned to the Lodge, and the Masonic brethren and the Military repaired to the Eagle Tavern and partook of re- freshments. The Church was filled with Ladies and the whole ceremony was im- pressive and unique. A grand salute of \24 guns was fired by the Artillery, and the Band played a number of patriotic airs. We learn that a vast concourse assem- bled at Tonawanda expecting the eereme= nies would be performed at Grand Island. Many of them came up in carriages in time to hear the inaugural speech, A finef day and more general satisfaction has not been known on any similar occasion. The following is the procfimation which will be read with great attention and in- terest : PROCLAMATION. TO THE .JEWS- WHEREAS it has pleased Almighty God to manifest to his chosen people, the approach of that period, w hen, in fulfilment of the promises made to the race of JacobNSffid'make'k^ and as a leward for their pious constanc\ and triumphant fidelity, they are to be gathered from the four quarters of the Globe, and to assume their rank and char- acter among the governments of the Earth. And whereas, the peace which now pre- vails among civilized nations; the pro- gress of le.u ning throughout the world, and the general spirit of liberality and toleration which exists, together with other changes, favorable to light and to liberty, mark in an especial manner, the approach of that time, when \ peace on earth and good will to man,\ are to prevail with a benign and extended influence, and the ancient people of God, the first to proclaim his unity and omnipotence, are to be restored to their in- heritance and enjoy the rights of a sove- reign independent people. Therefore, I, MORD^CA* MANUEL NOAH, Citizen of the United States of America, late Consul of said States for the city and Kingdom of Tunis, High Sheriff of New-York, Coun- sellor at Law, and by the grace of God, Governor and Judge of Israel, have issued this my proclamation, announcing to the Jews throughout the world that an asylum and happiness, which have been denied them, through the intolerance and misgov- ernment of former ages. An asylum in a free and powerful country, where ample protection is secured to their persons, their property, and religious rights; an asylum, in a country, remarkable for its vast resour- ces, the richness of'its soil, and the salu- brity of its climate; where industry is en- couraged, education promoted, and good faith rewarded. «,'.A land of Milk and. Honey,\ where Israel jittay repose in peace, under his \ vine and 4g tree,\ and where our ppople may so faniiliarize themselves, with the science of .^ovefflment, and the lights of learning knd civiteition, as may to give to it full publicity, credence, and effect. It is my will that a census of the Jews throughout the world be taken, and returns •of persons, together with their age and oc- cupation, be registered in the archieves. of the Synagogues where they are accustomed to worship, designating such in particular, who have been and are distinguished in the useful arts, in science, or in knowledge. Those of our pedpl'e who from age, local attachment, or from any other cause prefer remaining in the several parts of the world which they now respectively inhabit, and who are treated with liberality by the pub- lic authorities, are permitted to do so, and are specially recommended to be faithful to the governments which protect them. It is however expected, that they will aid and encourage the emigration of the young and enterprising, and endeavor to send to this country such, who will add to, our national strength and character, by their industry, honor and patriotism. Those Jews who are in the military em- ployment of the different sovereigns of Eu- rope, are enjoined to keep in their ranks is prepared and hereby offered to them, - .., , - , , , . ., , where they can enjoy that peace, comfort!teS&!l h \Xff^i mSdV6S ^ith bravery'and fidelity, I command that a strict neutrality be ob- served in the pending war between the Greeks and Turks, enjoined by considera- tions of safety towards a numerous popula- tion of Jews now under the oppressive \do- minion of the Ottoman Porte. The annual gifts which for many centuries have'been afforded to our pious brethren in our Holy City of Jerusalem, to which may (Jod speedily restore us, are to. continue with unabated liberality; our seminaries of learning, and institutions of charity in eve- ry part of the world, are to be increased, in order that\ wisdom and virtue may perma- nently prevail among the chosen people. 1 abolish for ever Poggamy among the Jew^, which without religious warrant, still exists in Asia and Africa. I prohibit mar- riages or giving Keduchim without both par- ties are of a suitable age, and can read and write the language of the country which they respectively inhabit, and which I trust will ensure to their offspring, the blessings of education and probably the lights of sci- ence. Prayers shall for ever be said in the He- brew Language, but it is recommended that occasional discourses on the principles of the Jewish faith, and the doctrines of mo- rality generally be delivered in the language of the country, together with such reforms which without departing from the ancient f|ithmay add greater solemnity to our wor- ship. The Caraite and Samaritan Jews, to- gether with the black Jews of India and Africa, and likewise those in Cochin China, arid the sect on the coast of Malabar, are entitled to an equality of rights and religious privileges, as are all who may partake of the 'great covenant, and respect and obey the Mosaical laws. The Indians of the .American Continent in their admitted\ Asiatic brigin, in their worship of one God, in their dialect and language, in their sacrifices, marriages, di- vorces, burials, fastings, purifications, pun- ishments, cities of refuge, division of tribes,' in their High Priests, and in their wars and in their victories, being in all probability the descendants of the lost tribes of Israel, which were carried captives by the King of Assyria, measures will be adopted to make them sensible of their origin, to cultivate their minds, soften their condition, and fi- nally re-unite them with their brethren, the chosen people. A capitation Tax of three shekels in sil- ver per annum, or one Spanish dollar, is hereby levied upon each Jew throughout the world, to be collected by the Treasurers of the different congregations for the pur- pose of defraying the various expenses of re-organizing the government, of aiding emigrants in the purchase of agricultural inpleinents, providing for their immediate wants and comforts, and assisting their fa- milies in making their first settlements,-to- gether with such free-will offerings as may be generously made in furtherance of the laudable objects connected with the restora- tion of the people, and the glory of the Jewish nation. A Judge of Israel shall be chosen once in every four years by the Con- sistory at Paris, at which time Proxies'from .every congregation shall be received. I do hereby name as Commissioners, the most learned and pious Abraham de Colog- na, Knight of the Iron Crown of Lombar- dy, Grand Rabbi of the Jews, and Presi- dent of the consistory at Paris ; Likewise the Grand Rabbi Andrade of Bordeaux, and also our learned and esteemed Grand Rabbis of the German and Portugal Jews, in London ; Rabbis Herschell, and Men- doza, together with the honorable Aaron Nunez Cardoza, of Gibraltar; Abraham Busnac, of Leghorn; Benjamin Gradis, of Bordeaux ; Dr. E. Gansfe professor Zunts, of Berlin, and Dr. Leo Woolf, of Ham- burgh, to aid and assist in carrying into ef- fect the provisions of this my proclamation, with powers to appoint the necessary agents in the several parts of the world, and to establish emigration societies in order that the Jews may be concentrated and capacita- ted to act as a distinct body, having at the head of each Kingdom or Republic such presiding officers as I shall upon their re- commendation appoint. Instructions to these my commissioners shall be forthwith transmitted. And a more enlarged and gen- eral view of the plan, motives and objects will be detailed in the address to the nation. The Consistory of Paris is hereby authori- zed and empowered to name three discreet persons of competent abilities to visit the United States, and make such report to the nation as the actual condition of this coun- try shall warrant. I do appoint Roshodes Adar, Feb. 7, 1826, to be observed with suitable demon- strations as a day of Thanksgiving to the Lord God of Israel, for the manifold bles- sings and the signal protection which he has deigned to extend to his people, and in order that on that great occasion our pray- ers may be offered for the continuance of his divine mercy, and the fulfilment of all the promises and pledges made to the race of Jacob. I recommend peace and union among us, charity and good will to all, toleration and liberality to our brethren of every religious denomination, enjoined by the mild and just precepts of our holy religion ; honor and good faith in the fulfilment of all our contracts, together with temperance, eco-. nomy and industry in our habits. I humbly intreat to be remembered in your prayers, and lastly, and most earnest- ly, I do enjoin you to \ Keep the charge'of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, to kelp his statutes and his commandments and his judgments and his testimonies as it is written in the Laws of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all thou doest, and whith- ersoever thou turnest thyself.\ Given at Buffalo, in the State of New- York, this second day of Tisri, in the year of the world, 5586, corresponding with the fifteenth day of September, 1825, and in the fiftieth year of American Independence. Bythe Judge. A. B. SIEXAS, Sec'y. pro tern. From the Boston Daily Advertiser. General Jarvis. —The letters from Mr. Miller, which we have published, contain repeated notices of Gen. Jarvis, the first A- merican who volunteered his services in the cause of Greece. We have learned from another quarter, something of the services of Mr. Jarvis in Greece. He is son to Mr. Benjamin Jarvis, a native of New-York, formerly resident in Boston, and now resir •dent at ATtona. He sailed from Marseilles for Hydra in March 1822, and in April en- tered as a volunteer on board the Hydriote fleet, where he served two years, being em- ployed however occasionally on shore. He was afterwards'employed inWestern Greece where he became acquainted with Lord Byron. He was near him at his death, and, appears to have enjoyed some good portion of his regard. He acted as Adjutant Gen- eral of his Lordship's brigade; and after his death, and the departure of Count Gam- ba, was appointed to the command of the brigade under Prince MavrocGrdatos. \With the Engineer Cooking he had the superin- tendence of the fortifications of Missolong- hi and Antolico. In February he wa\s at Napoli di Homani, whither he had accom- panied Prince Mavrocordatos, as mentioned in Mr. Miller's letter.. ' TUB CtSSaKTXEVA GAZETTE.

The frigate Brandywine, with the most valuable cargo that ever left \ the shores of Freedom,\ passed Cape Henry on Friday the 9th inst. at 2 o'clock, in gallant style, with a fine breeze from the north. The pilot left her at three o'clock nine miles out side of the Capes, all well— the General, his Son, and Col. La Vas- seur, in fine health. This is our latest intel- ligence from the man whom the people have delighted to honor. And while the noble ship proudly bears him over the billows, let fervent supplications daily ascend from eve- ry heart, that He who spreadest out the heavens and rulest the raging of the sea, would preserve his valuable life, and con- tinue to smile upon one whom He has made an instrument of so much good to mankind. The revival of the ancient Jewish gov- ernment and the consecration of the corner stone of the contemplated city on Grand Island, took place at Buffalo on the 15th inst. The proceedings on that interesting occasion and the >Proclamation of M. M. Noah, acting in the responsible and digni- fied capacity of Goyejjnpr and Judge, will be found in this paper.*^Th,e Speech deliv- ered by the Judge, is replete with historical facts respecting this long persecuted people, and will be presented to our readers next we^k. Mr. Bouck, canal commissioner at Lock- port, has authorized the editor of the paper at that place to say that on the 28th inst. he will be able to announce the definite pe- riod on which the Erie canal will be com- pleted : he supposes it will be not far from the 18th Oct. Notice was given in the last Canandai- gua papers that a meeting would be Jheld in that'Village on the 27th inst. for the purpose of reviving the Ontario County Bible Soci- ety, and of consulting on the measures ne- cessary to be taken to improve the present plan of Sabbath Schools, and to establish them in every town in the county. We have not had time to hear the result, but earnestly hope something has been done commensurate with the importance of the objects, and worthy of the county. The inhabitants of some of our north- ern towns aie engaged in building a Free Bridge in Junius, across the Seneca river ; one bent has been raised, and contracts made for completing a causeway through the swamp. On Monday the 3d of Oct. a meeting of those interested in the under- taking is to be held at E. Martin's inn, in Mentz, at 10 o'clock, A. M. Some lynx-eyed genius in Indiana, is a- bout adding a counterpart to Smyth's Ex- position of the Apocalypse, by publishing a book which he calls the \ Orb of Truth.\ One of his wonderful discoveries is, that Joshua had two gilded standards, one em- blematical of the sun, the other of the moon. These were placed on the right and left wings of the army, while he, in the centre, gave orders accordingly and was 0- beyed ! How he reconciles this with other parts of the sacred history, is, like the whole of his work, of little importance. It is said that 40,000 barrels of ashes from the United States will be exported from Canada the present year. The average a- mount which each barrel leaves in the coun- try during its progress, is no less than 16s. 3d., producing an amount of cash circula- ted in Canada on this year's importation, of nearly 4O,00OZ. upon this one article.— Will this profitable commerce be relinquish- ed by the States without remonstrance? The Syracuse Gazette has been enlarged to the imperial form. Some idea of the rapid advancement of that village may be formed from the fact that though a few years ago a wilderness, it is now able to support a paper so respectable in size and appear- ance. Wm. L. Stone, one of the editors of the N. Y. Spectator, has been dubbed an A. M. by the Brown University. His Alma Ma- ter is the Printing Office of the Herkimer American! The Rev. Selah S. Woodhull, D. D. of Brooklyn, has been elected Professor of Ecclesiastical History, Church Govern- ment and Pastoral Theology, in the Theo- logical Seriiinary of the Dutch Reformed Church. The Rev. Philip Milledoller, D. D\. is Professor of Didactic and Polemic Theology, and the Rev. John De Witt, D. D. of Biblical Literature. Each of these Professors are to occupy a department in Queen's College which is immediately to be revived, and of which the Rev. Wm. C. Brown-lee, D. D. of Basking Ridge, N. J. has lately been appointed Professor of Lan- guages, and Mr. Strong, of Hamilton Col- lege, Professor of Mathematics. It is understood that the subject of the colonization of the blacks is to be present- ed to the consideration of the next Con- gress : and that one of the leading members of the New-England delegation has pledg- ed himself to support a distinguished and influential southern member in advocating the adoption of national measures for the accomplishment of the same end. The Eagle Bank of New Haven, hither- to considered one of the safest in New Eng- land, has stopped payment and shut up shop. Seven men were dangerously wounded in the city of New-York on the 14th inst. by the tumbling down of four brick buildings which had just been erected, and on the roofs of which the carpenters were at work at the time. The Daily Advertiser states that the occupants of lease ground in that city are in the habit of erecting upon it buildings to let, of the most frail and wretch- ed construction—having the appearance in front of substantial brick buildings, but in fact the thickness of the walls is but one course of brick, (about 4 inches,) and that knany of the partition walls are constructed by laying the bricks up edgeways! The enn- sSljquence in the present case was a general tumble of the block, and the dreadful mangling if not destruction of the mechan- ics employed upon it.
