IDOLATRY IN BRITISH ASIA.
At a recent meeting uf the Directors?*)!
the East India Company in London, atten
tion was drawn to the present state of idol-
atry in the British Asiatic possessions, and
an attempt made by Mr. founder; one of the
I) hectors, to do away with: a grant of fiOOO/.,
which, it appears, was awarded by the Ben-,
gal Government for the support of the tem
ple of Juggernaut .upon the institution uf the
■ pilgrim tax in 1805, and which money pay
'rnbnt has recently been confirmed by Lord
Auckland on the abolition uf the pilgrim tax.
in the course of the rcmai'ks which .the sub
ject called forth, Mr. I’oynder read the fol
lowing extract of a letter from the highest
ecclesiastical authority in India, which he
had received, and which exhibits a melan
choly picture of the effects of fanaticism a
mong the deluded multitudes uf India.
“I have visited the valley of death. I
have seen the dun of darkness. Juggernaut
ha ; s been trodden with these feet, and seen
with these eyes, after thirty or.'forly years
lienHng about it. Oh! Buchanan, how well
do I remember your pious indignation when
you visited this foul and humble scenef—
My soul; is moved, within me even to tremb
ling.--. The dread pagoda is situated in the
vicinity of this village, called I’ource, of
which the narrow streets and wretched a
bodes are only emblems uf the moral ruin
and misery it diffuses; A town of 50,000
souls is held together by the direst supersti
tion—no trade but sin—no art but delusion
and lies—no bond uf union but communion
in idolatry. Nothing has yet been done to
aboljsh these idolatries. The three cars of
Juggernaut are builtanew eiery year. The
clothes and mantles are still furnished for
the idol pageantry by British servants. The
horrors are unutterable. 15<j,000 pilgrims
attend yearly, of 50,00(1 perish
by hunger, fatigue, or cholera,yearly. They
come from all parts of India. The larger
number are women, who concert their plans
for the journey unknown to their husbands
and families, and start off at a moment.—
The abominations consequent mify be judgr
cd of this trait. It; is a scene of plunder,
cfUej tv,and laid. ’"When the caravans arrive,
shall' receive tlie
helpless \yretches, who are plundered not
only of all they,possess or can procures but
of all they can borrow at an immense inter
est. About live days finish-thc .process; the
stripped multitude then proceed on their re
turn.- The sick are uniformly left behind
to whiten with their bones- (Irehccursed
plains. Those plains are, barren sands
thrown up from'the beach by the south-east
monsoon. The’ seasons of, pestilence are
chosen, as it. were, to heighten the misery;
for instance, June,-when the extreme heat is
suddenly succeeded by the rains and’ the
cholera among the undefended crowds. The
sick still sometimes throw themselves Un
der tlie wheels of the car; bands of music,
troops of dancers, or prostitutes of the vilest
order, noisy, intemperate debauchery, with
the must filthy and unutterable pollutions in
.figures, exhibitions, and songs, make up the
.religious rites of Juggernaut., Tlie pagoda,
or circuit of the enclosed temple, is a mass
of heavy buildings, of which no one is allow
ed \ penetrate the-interior, because Hie.,
cooking is l perpetually going bn in the inner
circuits, and the pissing of a Christian would
defile the whole culinary establishment. If
we had chosen to pay 2000 rupees for re
cleansing the sanctuary afterwards, we might
have been admitted. Such is Juggernaut!
Dr.. Buchanan is most true. Cruelty, fust,
oppression, disease, famine,'death, follow in
the train; as in the worship of the true God
and Saviour there Tußow light, mercy, puri
ty, justice, peace, domestic happiness, truth,
pardon, and eternal life.”
The motion to withdraw (he grant was not
carried, it being the - opinion that we were
bound by the terms by .which we took pos
session of that part.of the country, to the ac
customed maintenance of the temples. It
was, however, acknowledged that an im
mense advance had been, made towards a
better stale of things, and that an ordey,
which has recently been issued, forbiddiS^
' the attendance of troops and military-bands
. at the native religious festivals, was calcula
ted still-further to effect a total separation
between our Government and the idolatrous
worship of the Hindoo.

The friendly Indian now offered to bring

to go after them. -Permission was given,
and he re turned with four men and two boys
As the party returned to tiro post, ahother
Indian came up and surrendered himself. .
Lieut’s Wyse, Rankin,Thomas & Church

this friendly Indian; but not knowing where
Sain "Jones is, they expect hut little success.

satisfactory, and an amicable adjustment of
the quarrel impracticable. He advises hos

• The relations of Texas with France are
friendly—the alfairof Mr. Saligny will cause
no disturbance of tranquility. With Great
Britain the mutual ratification of treaties lias
been postponed (ill June; 1842. With the
United Slates the relations of the young Re
public are .must amicable. The message
speaks in glowing terms of the probable re- -
suits of the Santa Fe,Expedition, in pouring
into the cotters of Texas, the rich resources
of the commerce of that section, and estab
lishing intimate political relations- with a

THE PORTUGUESE SLAVE TRADE
The following is ah extract of a letter
from an officer on board lief Majesty’s ship
Acorn, dated :
‘St. Helena,.Sept. 4th, 1841.
"On our passage here from Rio Janeiro,
when abuut'half way across,. a sail'was re
ported one morning at daylight-,-and chase
was immediately given, the stranger also
making sail, and putting before the wind,
width, looked ycry Suspicious. At about
eight o’clock we had neared him considera
bly, and fired a blank gun and hoisted our
colors—no answer!, At ten o’clock we
were closing her fast, and observing that it
was a Slaver,' with slaves on board, fired
several shot over her, which at last made
her hoist' Portuguese colors and round to.--.
On getting alongside of her, and-when in the
act of- hoisting out and lowering our boats,
the villain of a captain put his helm’ up and
ran right on board of us." Luckily we.were
too quick for him in making sail, again,-so'
sustained no damage.. 1 was the tir.-t bn
board, and such a sight 1 never saw before,
and hope never to see again—ffirst, one of
the crew lying shot, through the shoulder,
and nobody caring for him in the least; sec
ondly,, the captain two-thirds drunk, and
very abusive and insolent; and last, though
not least, about 350 poof creatures crowded
between decks, where they could but just
sit upright. The s,niell and sight of their
poor emaciated bodies was dreadful, and al
though only 14 days out, 22 had died of
small pox, and 20 others had it also—indeed,
so reduceil Were they,, that it was difficult to
decide, at a glance, the sex of,the .poof’
women and girls, not a vestige' of feature 1
remaining by which to distinguish them:—
Two or three of them were lifted, with one
hand with the greatest ease..- Such a sight I
never saw. We sent the slayer (the Anna
by name) the same evening to Rio.for con
demnation.” -' ’ •

-A-SHOCKING-MUUDEU.
The Cincinnati Message of Saturday week
says: !
• “Yesterday morning there was a man ap
parently about thirty years of age, found
murdered in the culvert near Deer Creek
Bridge; . On examination, it was the suppo
sition that he had been beaten: to death with
a club;', there being sufficient grounds for
such a =conclusionfrom_thc.number of.brui
ses on the back part of the head. There
was also a severe cut on the upper lip, sup
posed to have been caused by a blow from a
club; several of his teeth were knocked out
from the force of the blow. His clothes,
which wore very good, were stripped from
him, and left near where the body was found,
with the pockets cut out. He was a middle
sized man, with dark hazel eyes. No infor
mation could be gained as to his name or
residence. The murder was doubtless com
mitted on the night previous to the discovery
of the body.
“Since writing the above, we understand,
a man has been arrested, suspected of being
concerned in the murder.”

THE editors of the, State Capitol Gazette, at
Hie urgent solicitation of mimcrons Democra
tic friends in almost every county of the Common
wealth, have come to the conclusion, to publish,
during the sittings of the approaching session ol
the Legislature,, the
st.-ita •Capitol Caistte, Uaiiyi
The Daily Gazette will bo printed on a royal
shoot of fine paper, which will he sufficiently'
large"to contain-full reports of proceedings of bdtli
branches of the Legislature. In carrying out our
intention of publishing a daily paper at the sent of
Government, we will of course subject ourselves
to heavy expenditures, and will consequently cxt
pect life Democracy of Pennsylvania to rally a
round us, and sustain us in our undertaking. To
enable us to give full reports of the prpceedijigs of
the Legislature, we have made arrangements for,
placing.in each House a compotept,stenographer,
the ability and professional experience of one of
whom at leiist, is Universally admitted both here
and elsewhere.—in addition to this, .we havo en
gaged, at a considerable expense, the valuable
services of-ouf late ..Washington Correspondent,
whose style of writing, the forcible, energetic, and
fearless manner in which ho laid bare the doings
of Federalism, and the faithful predictions which
ho gave, during the extraordinary session of Con
press, is familiar‘to out numerous readers, many
of tvhomiiave cheerfully admitted to us, in person,
that “Cleon” is one of the best political writers of
the day, and hpvo urged us again to prochro his
aid as pur correspondent at the seat of the General'
Government.
. In publishing a daily paper, wo are well aware
of thoiiead-y,responsibility that will rest uppn.us,
as its editord and conductors; - ; We are firmly con
vinced. however, that a Democratic daily pnporat
the seat'of Government, is natch..needed, and at
the suggestion Of our Democratic friends, we have
been induced to commence the undertaking, pro
vided a reasonable encouragement is given to war
rant it, The very moderate terms at which \ve
offer our daily paper to subscribers, must convince
every one lhat’the object is not to realize therefrom
an ipxtravagant compensation for our labors, On
thoVlfyor hand, we shall be perfectly satisfied if
our expenses do hot fall behind pnr income.
The terms of the Daily Gazetto, are such as will
compel us to adopt the cash systeh, which-rule
will bo strictly adhered to. . ' •
- The semi-weekly State Capitol Gazette, (dou
ble royal size) .will be published as heretofore,
during the silting of the Legislature.
Any person sending us four subscribers accom
panied by twelve! dollars, shall receive a .copy, for
their trouble, gratis. , „ ; ,f.

S' PROSPECTUS
it fitly Keystone.,
*' Terns $3,00 /or the Session.
THE undersigned being fully aware of the im
portance of having a Daily Democratic Paper,
published at thd SeaTof Government of Pennsyl
vania, during.the sessions of the Legislature, in
compliance with the request of a number of their
democratic friends, purpose, to publish the, KEY
STONE DAILY, during the approaching session
on a. Hoyal Sheet at the low price of two dollars
for tire session; or two cents per single copy.
The great object ,to be attained by the publica
tion of a Dally paper at Harrisburg during the ses
sion of the Legislature,'is to give Reports of tho
Debates in tho two Houses,.on ah important pub
lic questions, more at_length than has heretofore
been customary, and to gel those reports put bo
lero Uie■public, more’expeditiously-tban-by tho
slow process of a semi-weekly paper. There is.
an anxiety in the minds of tho reading public to
obtain the earliest information in regard to pll pub
lic movements; and ns the measures to be brought
forward and discussed, at tho approaching session
of our,,Legislature, will be of tho very firet import
ance, to* the people at large, we conceive that there
can be no more suitable time than the present, for
the commencement of an enterprize of this kind.
As one of tho proprietors of the Keystone is a
professional stenographer, and has long been en
gaged as a Reporter in Congress, in the Conven
tion to amend the Constitution, and in tho .State
Legislature, lie confidently hopes that ho will bo
enabled to conduct the, Legislative Department of
the paper, in a manner entirely satisfactory to those
members whose remarks ho may report and tho
public at large. He will be assisted by cqfnpe
tent reporters, and will at all times attend in one
House himself to ensure -faithful and accurate re
ports of. dehples in the Legislature. The oilier
proprietor will toko charge of the editorial De
partment of the paper, and as~ho~hasVheretoforo
had considerable .experience in conducting a De
mocratic Journal, in another part of the State, ho
hopes to bn ahle to make llueKeystone acceptable
not only to bis political triemis, but to thercading
public.
\Vc shall also..have a correspondent at Wash
ington, who will give.a daily synopsis of the bu
siness transacted in the National Legislature;*and
an account of all l{io political movements, which
may be made at thereat of the general government.
■ As \vb shall incur ..a very heavy expenditure*
over & above our own labors, in getting-bur Daily,
and in employing Reporters, Correspondents,
..we trust ourJiienda throughuutihe~Stale .will ex
ert themselves to give our paper as wide a circula-*
tion as possible. '
The Very low rate at which wo have placed on if
Daily, will inake it pOesssiry for, us to adnpt,the
cash jsvsTk>i,*Bjo tar atjeast as U ia concerned;and
rorjui repayments Ho Jie maclb ib'iCclunng the first

The semi-weekly Iveystonp/fdoublp roynl size)

oc issued DAILY during tlic ensuing
V session of thp Legislature; n'nd also t>v.U‘e
a week as formerly, lo suqli of our subscribers aa
prefer the old' form and size. .
•* The semi-weekly paper will bo two dollars the
session—the usual price. . \
Our Daily will he furnished at two rents prf
single copy, payable on delivery; and for two dol
lars during the Session, to be paid before its fuml
adjournment.
These prices are rxtremety low, there being hut ■
little advertising custom in the country. ,Hut, be
lieving that the Democracy of the JState will ho
greatly advantaged by an earlier and fuller circu
lation of political information than has heretofore*
been derived from the Seat of Government* and
being encouraged by many of dur .friends 1 to be
lieve also that sufficient patronage may. be. obtain
ed to 'save'tis from any considerable loss in the en
terprize, wo have concluded to take the risk for
the sake of the important object in view.
Wo feel great confidence in our ability at the
Seat of Government to make as pleasant ami use
ful a-.daily paper for tbo’gencml reader, as may be
found elsewhere, at' least during the sessions ot
the Legislature and Congress; and if encourage
ment be afforded us, our arrangements to that end
shall bfe made without regard to theenst, so that
the earliest and dost accurate information on sub
jects of a public nature be procured, and the char
acter of the paper reaplulm proper standard pf ex
cellence in odmr respects.
Since the Pennsylvania Reporter was establish
ed fifteen years ago, it basM’carly contained as.full
reports of tlie tegislauve, Cbhgfessibhalrand>lh
cr official proceedings as could be published in a
seint-wookly journal. The intention has always
been to represent all public transactions with im
partiality, and in ns intelligible-a form as was
found practicable by dose attention and freely
making the necessary expenditures. A daily sheet
-however, will afford additional advantages, in al-.
lowing greater detail in our reports, nnd-more rooift
for miscellaneous rending; and we shall of course
accommodate our arrangements for the Sessions of
the. Legislature and Congress, to. this increased
remiisiliohat our 'hands!: - - / »
