On assuming the new duties prescribed to him by the department of war, the major general considers it due to his situation to direct the attention of the army to certain points relative to its discipline and duties. The state of the military establishment is of a nature to excite a deep concern for its interests. The minute divisions which it has suffered, from the necessity of furnishing garrisons for the numerous posts that line our inland and maritime borders, and the abridgement of the sources of competition, inseparable from its dispersed condition, are alike unfavorable to its discipline. The principle of emulation, which, in combined forces, has an irresistible operation by a force inherent in itself, is lost upon bodies which do not feel the influence of contact, and can find a substitute only in the increased devotion of those who are invested with command. Discipline, no longer nourished by a principle of constitutional activity, becomes in a great degree dependent for existence on the application of authority by those in command, and on the principle of obedience in those of subordinate situations. Viewing the subject as he does, the major general cannot repress a solicitude for the prosperity of the army; a solicitude which is reliev ed only by a confidence in those, by whose co-operation his own efforts are to be sustained. Subordination in authority is the essence of military government, and it must be fostered by that respectful deference, which is due from all officers to each other, in their private as well as in their official correspondence. The prevalence of desertion has been an evil of serious magnitude, and it does not appear to be justified by a view of the past condition of the military establishment. All research in this field for its causes has been unsatisfactory. The character of the military profession is honorable; the soldier is as well provided with comforts as the citizen in common life, and his occupation is neither more offen sive nor more laborious. There are restless, discontented spirits in every sphere of life, which no indulgence nor kindness can bind to stability; but these examples do not exist in sufficient number to justify the range desertion has taken in the army. The evil must be referred, in a degree, to an undue severity, or to the absence of system in the con. duct of officers towards their men. The officer is the depositary of the rights of the soldier, and the obligations of his office, as well as the laws of honor and humanity, claim a faithful execution of the trust. When the soldier ceases to regard the officer as his protector, the authority with which the laws invest the latter loses its efficacy in his estimation. The surest remedy for the evil of desertion is contained in a rigid and steady discipline. To be salutary it must possess both these qualities; but no violation of law can be deemed essential to its enforcement. Its effect upon the soldier becomes impaired the moment he feels that the system which governs him is fluctuating in its course, or that it violates the principles upon which it is founded. The certainty of laws constitutes their principal efficacy, and, however severe restrictions may be, they are obeyed so long as they are dispens ed by the hand of justice, and not of oppression. It should be the study of officers to cultivate intimate relations with society, and to attach the community to the interests of the army, by mingling, with circumspection and prudence, in those social channels wherein the sympathies of individuals naturally flow. The objects of military service are of national concern, and it is but rational that there should be an intimacy between the nation and the agents to which its external defence is entrusted. The affections of the nation constitute the only certain and permanent basis upon which the military establishment can build its reputation. Under a government whose whole efficacy is derivative, it is apparent that every subordinate institution must participate in the general dependence upon the common fountain of power. To the country, then, in its most enlarged sense, the army must look for the rewards of its successes, and for support in the hour of adversity; and it is only by deeds of arms in war, and devotion to duty in peace, that its object can be attained. The major general feels it his duty forcibly to enjoin on the officers of the army the necessity of maintaining a spirit of harmony among themselves. In addition to the consideration that personal schisms tend directly to the subversion of military order and discipline, it will be obvious to them that their profession imposes obligations, which do not exist in the other walks of life. Dissentions and controversies among private gentlemen affect only the characters of the individual parties; while those among military officers impair the reputation of the The nation must be convinced that the army is body of which they are members; and it is but just be made to feel that it is connected with its safety progressing in all useful improvements, and must to expect that every gentleman of honorable sentiments will sacrifice the gratification of his per- the difficulty of this, achievement.

But the sober lessons of experience have taught me the futility of all such hopes and attempts, not only here, but in every state where I have had a knowledge of the militia, "In peace prepare for war" is a good maxim, but "at all times to inculcate the principles and promote the arts of peace" is a better.

Bunker's Hill, King's Mountain, and New Orleans, will forever attest that the ardor of patriotism, and the regard for individual character, that is so dear to honorable minds, will give an impetus to a militia force that will overwhelm the frigid order of regular troops. If warfare is protracted, discipline will in due time supply the place of this resistless but transient ardor. And I hazard nothing by the assertion, that one week in actual service will do more for discipline than the whole life of a man who is dragged from his family half a dozen times in the year to expose his health to the elements, his awkwardness to the public gaze, and his morals to the contamination of electioneering treats. Raleigh, Dec. 22, 1820. CALVIN JONES. Turkey in Europe. The insurrection of the Greeks, which appears to be general, seems to threaten a great revolution in the condition of this interesting portion of Europe. We have already published the declaration of Russia and Austria, regarding the insurrection, together with the spirited proclamation of Ypsilanti to the Greeks.

A large portion of the forces of the great neighboring powers are said to be, in consequence of the clashing of interests in Europe, diverted to points remote from the Turkish territory. The mutual fears, likewise, and jealousies of the Christian governments, may obstruct the projects entertained by any one of them for the conquest or dismemberment of Turkey; but the military strength of the Porte itself, "Southward of this range of islands, at the disthough much of it is nominal as to amount, and im-tance of from fifty to eighty miles, lies a large body perfect as to quality, has not yet been fairly calcu- of land, yet but little known, and will probably so lated-and we subjoin, on the authority of the same remain, by reason of the danger and difficulty of paper, a detailed, though probably exaggerated approaching the shore, from the great quantity of statement of the several descriptions of force which floating ice with which it is surrounded.

I have further to request, that you will solicit him to do me the honor of communicating his ideas, by letter, on these specimens of stone, ore, &c." The new-found Land. The following is published in the New-York "Daily Advertiser, as an extract of a letter from captain Donald Mackay, dated among the Antarctic islands, lat. 63, south, long. 61, west, "or thereabouts," and is the best account that we have yet had of the land recently discovered and called New South Iceland by some and New South Shetland by others: "This land is but little known yet, except the range of islands at which we now are, extending from E. N. E. to W. S. W. about two hundred miles in length. These are, in general, composed of high and broken land, or rather rocks, clad with an immense body of snow, except here and there a naked peak, or some low rocks near the sea. The snow, consolidated by lapse of time, forms perpendicular cliffs, much higher than those bordering on the river Hudson. These are common along the coast, The following from the New York Gazette contains some additional particulars: "Vessels from the lands situate to the south a Cape Horn, have arrived in different ports with cargoes of seal skins. The regions visited by the New-York navigators lie in about the latitude of 62°, where vegetable life is so rare, that a little grass in a few favored places, and some moss on the rocks, are all the forms of it that exist. The dreary climate exhibits, during the entire summer, perpetual snow and ice; not a tree nor even shrub appears. The minerals brought home by Mr. B. Astor are partly primitive and partly volcanic. The examples produced to Dr. Mitchell are-1. Quartz in compact and chrystalized forms. 2. Amethysts, in chrystals. 3. Pophyry, in small masses. 4. Rouen oynx, in pebbles. 5. Lumps of coarse flint. 6. Elegant zeulite, like that of the Ferro groupe in the North Atlantic ocean. 7. Pumice stone. 8. Pyrites, surcharged with sulphur. The manuscript chart made by Mr. Hampton Stewart, is an instructive addition to geography, and ought to be incorporated into the charts of the globe. Geologists will learn with surprise that the high grounds and summit of the rocks in several of the spots that have been visited, are strewed with skeletons of whales, and relics of other marine animals, leading to a belief that the whole of the materials have been hove up by the operation of volcanic fire, from the depths of the ocean. Further disclosures of the natural constitution of this curious region are expected with impatience from future adventurers. There appears to be a wide field for new and original observation. It is also hoped we shall soon receive a more full and satisfactory account of the Terra Australis, or continent of the southern hemisphere, occupying the vast space between the tracts already surveyed and the pole. Foreign Articles. London papers, of the 20th of May, have been received at New-York. They do not contain any thing important. Great Britain. The king has abandoned his visit to Ireland—this measure is said to have resulted from the fate of the Catholic question. Preparations, however, were making for his reception in Hanover. Thirteen regiments were about to depart to the East and West Indies, to relieve others or. dered home.. Spain. In the debate of the Spanish Cortes of the 22d March, respecting the conspiracies against the constitution, the new secretary, or minister, of the colonial department, held the following language in the name of the whole ministry: the constitution have been so stupid as to shew that they belonged alone to their ostensible authors.His majesty, the king, knows that these wretches meant to supersede him on the throne. "The government has not been interrupted for a moment in its operations. All the new ministers are at their post-they are perfectly united in sentiment; they suffer no perplexity as to the system they are to pursue-this is a strict observance of the constitution and the laws: and if we cannot compare ourselves with our predecessors, in point of abilities and information, at least we are not behind them in patriotism, in firmness of character, and in resolution to defend the rights of the throne and the people." Turkey. Advices from the Ionian Islands, state that the Morea and southern provinces of Greece,are manifesting the same spirit of insurrection against the Turkish power as those of the north.

It is added that he Turks. Colombia. A letter received from St. Thomas, by a respectable gentlemen in Baltimore, states, that Caraccas fell into the hands of the patriots on the 13th of May. It appears by this statement, that general La Torre, with his second in command, Morales, [so distinguished for his cruelties under Morillo] had made a movement in advance to meet had been joined by Paez, having under him the the main army, under the president, Bolivar, who British and Irish, with 4000 native troops, of which 1500 were cavalry-That in this movement, La Torre left the city uncovered, when Bermudez, by a masterly march, threw himself in the rear of the royal army, entered the city in triumph, of which he made himself completely master, to the great joy of the inhabitants-It is further stated that La guira subsequently fell into the hands of the independents,and that, according to the latest accounts, the patriot flag floated all along the coast-such is the sum of the intelligence which has reached us. We trust it may turn out to be correct, and what is related respecting gen. Bermudez rather inclines us to believe it true, as we have reason to know, that at the period of the armistice in November last, Bermudez, who is a native of Caraccas and is highly esteemed there, had a secret understandding with the inhabitants, and was about to take the city by surprise when the suspension of hostilities put a stop to the enterprize.-It is but natural that this project would be the first thing to engage his attention on the renewal of the wars-Most likely it came within the plan of the campaign ably conceived no doubt by the president. Gen Morales, with the royal army, was gone against Bolivar, who was in the interior; there were no troops left in Caraccas-Gen. Bermudez had about 1000 men with him. "It is incontestible that the present ministers gave a strong proof of their patriotism in accepting their stations. As for myself I may say that I consider it as beyond the danger of dying on the gallows, the fate to which I have been already exposed by my adherence to liberal principles. The entire removal of all the former ministers, all men distinguished by their patriotism, their lights, and their public services, and our spontaneous nomina. tion to succeed then, are certainly fearful things for us-but the testimony of our conscience allay Cora had declared for the patriots, and many of our apprehensions; we venture to rely upon our the inhabitants favorable to the royal cause, arriv. honor, our candor, and our firmness.
