About three deytt ,sail to the southward of Mozambique, on the east coast M. Africa, is a noted slave pen, so admirably bulwarked by rocks and quicksand bars, that pone save an adept at negro stealing, would stipposn fi vessel could be safely piloted through the doubtful entrance. One- of light draught, however, might pass the bar when the tide was lull—but should a flao-strike her , head sails, it would send her keel beyond hope of escape, for the ebb-tide would beat the ribs out of a seventy.dour. The entrance was critical, and to the purpose to which it had been devoted ~it . was invaluable. Under the covering of so lowering a sky, the "black bird" referred to, effected her entrance through the contracted channel one night, and ronning up the creek to which it led, a short distance dropped het anchor.— The process of taking in an "assorted cargo" was speedily executed, and forty-eight,,hours from pie time her long raking masts hovered back to the towering cocoa-nut grove, skirt ing the narrow stream in which she lay secure from observation by sea, the gaskets confining her head ,sails were cast ofl, and she was gradually edging her way to the dangerous entrance, Ler middle deck crowd ed to suffocation with the manacled forms of over three hundred beings, "cursed with a skin darker than christian white rnan',B." S. ELLIOTT, Main street. Carlisle.. As intimated, she,was a model craft—a Bal timore built clipper. Her ability to beat to windward was equal to that of most vessels for running Itee—rand as tor a chase nothing ple.ased her captain so well—for so fortunate had he been 'heretofore, that a spy-glass view of the .'ginger-bread work" adorning her cabin windows was all her pursuers had been able to gain. The dependence of the Sea Bird was the long tapering engine of death hung on a pivot amidships, albeit for an emergency she carried guns capable of doing execution in close quarters. The splintered bulwarks of more than one slave chaser, bore tevtiruAnytßithe aocuracy of - her gunneries practised eye. Having an unusually valuable cargo on board, the captain of the Sett , Berd telt solid'• tuous of making short work of it, and to that end he kept his brig trithined to her best sat• log poine,.and she nobly requited the care. .rot several days a vessel had been seen hovering on their bows, but too far ahead to be made out with certainly, evidently watch , ing their movements. Did the slaver alter her course a pond the phantom ship ahead I tollowed snit—was sail shortened in order to l increase the distance - between them, the yes. sal ahead did the,same.

What brig's that?" . • ';The Sea Bird at your service," returned to slaver captain. `Send your boon board," said her Majes e officer "Aye, aye,'? was "hoed back from the slaver, but no effort made to lower a.boat.— ' Well knowing the character ho had to deal with, an iron messenger from the English brig intimated to the slaver that her., Majes- Iv's officer was is earnest. Bet the* snieike horn the discharge had' scarcely lifted from the breach of the gun, before a broadside from the Sea Bird came crashing.along the deck, prostrating three noble sailors! I nceri- Bed at the pttatical rejoinder of the "Black Bird," the deck of toe. English officer was cleared for adtion. Bracing his yards sharp up', he positioned himself to speak to her to some purpose. A: shot from one of his for ward guns sent the head 011ie Sea Bird's forelopmast flying from its place, which brought thundering upon her deck, her top gallant and royal mast yards, top hammer and all, so effectually crippling her head sails that she refused, to chey_her_heLmrand_. playing off before the wind was in momen larydanger of"runhing the. English brig a board. Taking advantage of her disabled condi tion, the Englishmaii luffed up just ,n time to swing clear, and while running by each , other . the grapplinge were throwr.,.and in a twin Ichng the two vessels were last. Above the crash of the meeting brigs, and the hur rying to and he of men, arose the order ol— "Boarders away !" But the desperate ala vers were ready for the charge, and hand to. hand disputed every inch the boarders ad vanced. The contest was all in favor of the English, when suddenly the slavers retreated all in a body, jest in time to escape the „ discharge of "Long Tom," which had been loaded with spikes and chain links by the gunner during the melee, in anticipation of the result. ,The match was applied, and a mangled mass of flesh and blood strewed the . forward deck of tt.e slaver. The rolling of- the two vessels snapped the grapplMgs at this moment, and they slowly seperated only to renew the contest in another form. As the English brig settled down in the tat:vh of the sea, a shot from the Sea Bird shivered the head of the mainmast. Both vessels were terribly,„cut up.. The diver's starboard bow was entirely shot away, and the light shone through her, bulwarks — fore — notrrdt; while the English man's boats were completely annihilated, his mainmast in dangerof falling, sevetal of his men killed or disabled, and his vessel leak ing badly. So intent wore they upon the mutual destruction of each other, that Marge sloop of war bearing the firing several miles to windward, bore upon them and was within two miles of the scene of action, before hee"presence was observed. The silky folds of the meteor flag of England -proudly wooed the breeze Irom the mizzen peak, and while its appearance was hailed with mild and prolonged cheers from the English brig's deck, hope yielded prece dence to despair in the hearts of the slavers. The conflict had been desperate and fear fully destructive, but the most heart-sicken ing fie en o was in reserve. After the survi vors on board the Sea Bird had been cared for, the tightly buttoned cover of the main hatch wits removed, and a spectacle mdre revolt ing to humanity, never greeted human eyes, than was disclosed by the bright sunlight as it penetrated the dark and and densely pack ed hold of the slaver.

HISTOUY,OF DUELLING, There icno community which will better illustrate the practice and extreme folly of duelling, than the State.ol Kentucky. Li the debates of the Kentucky convention, We ob serve that some of the ablest men there have arrayed themselves against that foolish as tvell as wicked', practice. Among (befit is the Hon. Ben Husain, from , whose speech - we - extractitfer lolloivmgrrect account of this extraordinary practice: In the course of my readings its to the his ' tory of mankind, 1 have turned - my attention some little to this subject ; and esis, from the days of Nimrod the mighty hunter of Babylon, clown to about three hundred years ago, I have not found a single instance where a private, personal qucirrel wje settled by a duel. In ev ery case where there were personal combats, they were for public and not for private constd ! orations: The private combats before the walls GE Troy, end the walls of Jerusalem, were fought by men in each of the armies opposed to each other,and in behalf of each army. Such was the character of the case referted to by the - gentleitunc(M - f. Niftiill,) between the three brothers of the Haregii and the Curiatii. Thera the fate of the battle, it was agreed, should tarn upon their success. There is no instance of the modern duel presented until we come down to the time When Francis 1., of France, gave the 'challenge to Charles V., king of Spain and emperor of Germany. Theft) the practice took its origin, and it has been fiAtistpnee ev er since. And why is it ? Because there - is a notion, a ridiculous kind of upinion going a broad, invisible, intangible, and Which , no man can touch, called the code of liork.r,which com pels a man to fight in certain cases. Thus : do you want to kill me ? No. Do want to kill you? No. But there is some imaginary insult, some supposed lorry, and some sickly sensibility feels itself insulted, and asks for an explanation. Tho man who is asked feels - a little too proud to give it,.and the parties cor respond a little, and finally fight—and all about nothing. Wo know that duelling does not stop killing in the streets, or assassination in the highway. No sir, this is a mistake, and nothing will atop it but a sense of certain. positive, and speedy punishment. And how ato we to 'stop the practice of duelling 7 We are to furnish men who are in doubt as to It point of honor 'with a competent apology for avoiding a (fuel. That ih all we want. Them is nut a man in the worlds enjoying health, and who lies - friends ,and connexions around him that does not love life. Look at the man •in .the last agonies of death, and see bow lie clings to life. And, why? thicaudie he loves life. And yet a false notion of honor, or rather a fable public opinion; wilt force the man in fine health to hszard his life to a false notion of honor. Frederick the Great of Prussia, was ono of the ablest and bravest men who ever fought at the head Of an army, and yet what did he say millet duellist? . Why, that if a duel was fought, ho tyould hung 'all concerned in it, and If lie could find out where was the place of meeting, he would go there himself with his hangman, and hang up the survivor without a trial. Has not Great Brit ain lately hung up savalal men who killed oth ers in duels. A Colonel Campbell there, killed a man in a duel, not long since, and was hung, And other instances might be mentioned. And Kentucky is the only country wiliere no man has ever been punished for giving, accept ing, carrying a challenge, or killing, his antag onist in a duel. What inroads have boon made in the family - of Alexander Pope, my old friend with whom I practiced law until ho died, by the duelling propensities of those Awe young men, Henry and Fountain Pope One was killed in Arkansas, and the other near Louis ville, without any cause, if the parties had un derstood each other. The parties fought at a distance of thirty yards, with shot guns. Did I not know, while in Washington, Barron and Decatur, two of the first men at that peridd • in America, come up in mortal array within six teen feet of each-other,,beca use one was' near sighted, and the rule was that both should take dCliberate sight before the word to fire was giv en They both fired and fell with their heads not ton feet apart from each other. And before they were taken from the ground each expected both' to die c they spoke to each other, and a reconciliation took place. They .bleestid each other, and declared that there Was,, nothing be twoon'thiim. All that wits required to have prevented the meeting wail an explanation be tween theM.'

This most remarkable man was born at Peen. in Italy, in the year 1564. When ho was on ly nineteen, the swinging or a lamp suspended from the ceiling of the cathedral In Pisa, led hi6i to investigate tho laws of a swinging of a pendulum, Which he was the first to apply as a measuro of time. His saliva mind was con- .atantly-oecupiod-with-the-great-lawe - of - naturoc and ho found out a groat many of those which Until Ms tintn, =co unknown. Some of the opinions !which he maintained were not only new, but oxtremely obnoxious to the Romish church—a church which you know insists on deciding what a man may believe, and whit In may not believe. For asserting, &Menially, that the earth ; ttnii• other planets revolved, in separate orbits, &mind lho sun, ho was severe ly persecuted. Ho was indeed obliged to give up the professorship of mathematics, a post to which he had'been elected when quite a youth , ' on account of this and similar notions, which wore regarded avintolumblelicirceies. It was OttMao who discovered that the spa- cos through which a body falls, in equal times increase as the numbers 1,3, 5, 7 ; that is,that ire body falls fitteonParis foot (about sixteen English] in ono second, it will full forty-five in two, sevontyfive in three, and so . on. Some think that he invented the thermometer. This .is not certain, however; though if he did•not invent, ho improved it, and brOught it to a higher state of perfection. The teleecope re mained a useless instrument,. unlit Gelileo_ turned it towards the heavens. In y a short time • be made some of the most important discover ies,in relation twat() heavenly bodies. Ho found that the moon, as iVell as the earth, has ail un. oven surface; and he taught his diseiplee to measure the height of its mountains by the height of their shadow. His most rlimarkablo discovery was thpt pf Jupiter's satellites slid Saturn's ring Ho it 'was, too, who noticed the smile effete for the first dna. In 1610, he was appointed grand ducal math ematician-and philosopher.' He now bectirriea. prominent man in the oyes of the whole civil ized world. But narrow nfinded and bigoted men were more engaged than ever to 'overthrow his' philosophy, and humble him in the dust.— The :honks preached against him. Be was,in fact obliged to go to Rome, to make his peace with the Pdpe rind tile cardinals. This ho could only accomplish by promising that he would maintain his system • no fartlic - n, either by his words or his writings. It was with the utmost difficulty that he escaped falling into the hands of the inquisition, even after this promise. Some years after tie published a work which drew down upon his head innumerable vials of wrath. This time he was not so successful with the ecclesiastical powers. A congregation of cardinals and monks examiner! his work; con demned it as containing dangerous heresies, and summoned him before the tribunal of the inquisition. Galileo was compelled.. to go to Rome in the winter of 1633, where lie languish ed some months in the prisons of the inquisi tion. lie was finally condemned to renounce his peculiar theories, which he did in ,presence of an assembly of ignorant monks, kneeling be fore them with his hand upon the Gospel. At the moment when lie ruse from his knees, vex ed with himself having sworn contrary to the firm convictions of his judgment, he ex; , claimed, stamping his foot violently, t'Epur si muove," ["and yet it moves !"] Upon this he Wee sentenced to the dungeons of the inquisi iion •for an indefinite time, and every week, for three years, was to repeat the seven penitential psalms oT David. Dia judges, however, were merciful enough to commute this punishment to banishment to the pariah of Arcoti, not far from Florence.
