early period, and therefore no difficulty of this kind could have occasioned the abandonment of such a useful project, though Pausanias* is of a different opinion It was always begun with the greatest energy, and abandoned without any plausible motive, as no doubt the quantity of rock or earth to be removed, and all the associated impediments, must have been the subject of previouscalculation And if Demetrius’ was really convinced that the level of the Corinthian gulf was higher than that of the Saronic, and that the adjacent shore, with the neighbouring islands, would be inundated by the union of the two seas, those who came after him would not have persevered in so destructive an undertaking*Sesostris, and afterwards Darius, were in the same manner deterred from finishing a canal from the Red Sea to the Nile, by an apprehension that Egypt would be inundated Dion Cassius tells nearly the same story about digging the Isthmus, as that which is related to travellers at this day He says that blood issued from the ground, that groans and lamentations were heard, and terrible apparitions seen In order to stimulate the perseverance of the people, Nero took a spade and dug himself’ It is not unlikely that the priests of Delphi had some influence in checking the enterprise We know from the testimony of Herodotus and Pausanias, that the Pythia forbad the Gnidians to make a channel through their Isthmus, alleging, that if Jupiter had intended the peninsula to have been an island, he would have made it so originally We know also that an oracle prevented Nechos, king of Egypt, from cutting a canal from the Nile to the Arabic gulfThe ancients appear to have been divided in their opinions concerning the exact breadth of the Isthmus Diodorus and Strabo say, it was forty stadia, and Mela’ five miles Hermolaus Barbarus, calls it Quinquemillium, instead of its usual appellation, Hexamilium Ships were drawn, by means of machinery, from one sea to the other, near the town of Schoenos, over the narrowest part of the Isthmus,which was called Diolkos Pindar* compares the Isthmus to a bridge, over the sea, -roflov? ytQvga-; and Pliny calls it the neck of the Peloponnesos It is denominated Hexamilium by the Byzantine historians; and there is a village, not far from Corinth, which is still called HexamiliaIt is uncertain at what period the Corinthian Isthmus was first fortified with walls which were drawn across it from sea to sea We know, from Herodotus, that, after the death of Leonidas, the Peloponnesians, dreading the Persian invasion, broke up the Skironian way, and built a wall, in haste, across the Isthmus, composed of all kinds of materials which were at hand, as stones, wood, and sandIt was afterwards fortified by the Spartans and Athenians, in the time of Epaminondas Polybius says, that Cleomenes secured the space between the Acrocorinth and the Oneian mountains, with banks and ditches; and Plutarch asserts, that he fortified the passes on the Oneian mountains This bulwark was afterwards frequently destroyed, and as often rebuilt It was restored by the emperor Valerian, to resist a Scythian invasion, and was again rebuilt by Justinian, and fortified with one hundred and fifty-three towers It was probably afterwards left in a ruinous state for some ages; as we hear nothing of its subsequent restoration until the year , when -it was rebuilt by the emperor Manuel PaloeologusIt was repaired,’ twenty-nine years afterwards, by Coustantine Palaeologus, and by the Venetians” in , and fortified with one hundred and thirty-six towers and double trenches; the whole of which work was completed in fifteen days,  , workmen It was again restored by the Venetians in  In the fifteenth century it was three times captured by the Turks; and in , the Venetians seized it, but made an unsuccessful attempt upon Corinth In , Mohamed II took Hexamilium and Corinth from Demetrius, despot of the Morea’

greater prejudice against the Persian Shiites, or followers of Aly, than against the Jews and Christians.In some of the Grecian islands the population is divided between the Greek patriarchal church, and that of Rome; amongst whom the most violent and indecent controversies frequently arise. When their dissensions become very furious, the Turks make both parties pay a fine, and then leave them to settle the difference as well as they can. ” Fra due littiganti, il terzo gode.”1The Greeks hold in abomination the numerous statues and paintings resembling life, which are seen in the churches of other countries.I sometimes endeavoured to persuade them that there was no more harm in good paintings, than in the vile daubs which disgrace the churches of Greece, and which are purposely executed without effect of light and shade, in order that they may resemble nothing human or divine. But they affirm that this very circumstance constitutes their merit, as they have no appearance of reality; while, on the contrary, those in Catholic churches are such exact representations of life, that they appear to be breathing realities. “The bolder forms of sculpture in brass or in marble, which peopled the temples of antiquity, are offensive to the fancy or conscience of the Christian Greeks; and a smooth surface of colour has ever been esteemed a more decent and harmless mode of imitation. Your scandalous figures stand quite out from the canvass, they are as bad as a group of statues!” It was thus, says Gibbon, that the ignorance and bigotry of a Greek priest applauded the pictures of Titian, which he had ordered but refused to accept!1 iE sop’s Fable of the kite, the frog, and the mouse.Although the fasts in Greece are remarkably long and severe, yet the fattest and the stoutest people are seen amongst the priests; and their appearance demonstrates that they are well fed. It is. certain that they neither follow the rigid examples of the ancientpriests of Samos, nor of the Hierophants of Athens; in short, their chastity is not proverbial, nor are their morals without a stain!A Greek priest can only marry once; his bride must be a virgin; and he cannot afterwards aspire to a higher dignity in the church than that of proto-papas.A Greek monk, who resided at Preb￡sa in Epiros, and who took care of the church of Saint George, which is in the vicinity, used to derive considerable emolument from the religious charity of the Greeks of the surrounding country who visited the church, and paid their devoirsto the miraculous picture on the Saint’s Day. One year it happened to rain incessantly during the whole of the day, so as to suspend the accustomed visits of the numerous devotees. The disappointed monk, having prayed in vain to the Saint to stop the rain, at last in a rage took his picture from the church, and exposed it to the inclemency of the weather, exclaiming, ” I have served you all the year to get a little money on your day; and in return you permit it to rain, and prevent good Christians from saluting you with their homage, and me with their alms. Take therefore the rain for your pains!” Somewhat similar to this is the story in the fable, of one who prayed to Jupiter to assist him in killing a flea; and broke his statue because he did not comply with the request.Nothing is so inimical to the regeneration.of the Greeks, as the overbearing. power, and extreme bigotry and ignorance, of their spiritual pastors, who exercise a double tyranny over the minds and bodies of their flocks; nipping in the bud the force of their native genius, and reducing nature by long and severe mortifications. But, although this is the general failing of the Greek priests, it is fortunately not without some exceptions; aftd there are many of their clergy, who, for humanity, Wisdom, and demotion, would be an honour to any country.Nor must we ever omit this important consideration,—that almost all the faults of the Greeks are owing to their preserit cruel oppression; and that, if under such circumstances, they are not much

and a good many hard white pebbles are imbedded in it, yet the walls would certainly have looked better in their natural colour. The truth is, the buildings were both originally unpainted; but the unceremonious usage which they received from our troops at the capture of the city, so effectually begrimmed their visages that it was found impossible to eradicate the defilement. To have demolished and rebuilt the walls, would have been a very costly expedient, and as the least of two evils, the painter’s brush was resorted to; here and there however, above some of the windows, the black wreathings of the smoke are still discernible through the white covering.Of all the errors committed on our part during that unhappy war, this was undoubtedly one of the greatest. Setting aside the question as to its abstract defensibility, on the ground of retaliation or otherwise, it is obvious that it was in the highest degree impolitic; because its immediate effect, as might have been anticipated, was to break down party spirit among the Americans, and to unite them as one man in support of the measures of their government. The firebrand was no sooner applied to their Chief Magistrate’s Palace, and the National Senate House, than thousands who had from the beginning maintained a systematic opposition to the contest, at once came forward and took up arms to maintain it; their national feelings were roused into powerful excitement, andthey joined in one loud voice of execration at the destruction of their national edifices. Our ministers, had such been their object, could not have devised a more effectual way of strengthening Mr. Madison’s hands. Had our troops recorded their triumph upon the front of the buildings, and left them uninjured, the indignant feeling of humiliation would have wreaked itself on those by whose imbecility the capture of the city had been occasioned, and who escaped so nimbly when it fell into the enemy’s hands. But the burning of the buildings saved Mr. Madison; a thirst for revenge of the insult overcame every other feeling, and the war became thenceforward, what it had not been before, decidedly popular and national.No more than the wings of the Capitol had been completed when the city was captured. They have risen from their ashes, and are again roofed in; the centre also is beginning to appear above the ground. Each wing is pretty nearly square, and consists of a basement and principal story, surmounted with a low circular dome bearing a small lantern. The basement is rusticated, and between the windows of the principal story is a row of Corinthian pilasters. The centre is to resemble the wings in its general features, but will project considerably beyond them. The building wants simplicity very much.The House of Representatives will occupy a magnificent hall in the right wing of the building. The Speaker’s chair is to be placed near the wall, and the seats and desks of the members will be disposed in semicircular lines round it, rising as they recede. Beyond the members’ seats will be an extensive gallery for spectators. Twenty-two splendid Corinthian columns with corresponding pilasters are to surround the outline of the semicircle, and the wall behind the Speaker’s chair. Part of these are already erected. The shaft of the columns is of a kind of puddingstone from the banks of the Potowmak, composed of numerous pebbles of various sizes and colours, and admitting of a good polish. The capitals, which were executed in Italy, are of white marble, and it is said cost upwards of a hundred pounds sterling each. The appropriate foliage of this splendid order is most exquisitely elaborated. I am disposed to think, however, that had the columns been altogether of white marble, the effect would have been much more pleasing. As the workmen are still busy with this hall, I am unable to be more minute in my description.Among a multitude of workmen who are now employed on the building, I chanced to enter into conversation with an Irish marble cutter, who has been here for some

the duty of the executive to conform to existing laws and policy. It is admitted that if the appointment be directed by law, there is no choice; but be understood his colleague (Mr. Ingham,) to assert the application of a rule of judgment, which he was sure, upon deliberate consideration, he (Mr. I.) would see to be unjust, ?infinitely mischievous and dangerous. He was understood to say, that even where the act was lawful, he would inquire into the intention, the quo animo.He would appeal to his colleague, if this mode of judging was not the root of incalculable mischief and injustice. A man performs his duty, walks cautiously, is, if you please a religious man some one chooses to inquire into the quo animo, and pronounces him a hypocrite.[Mr. Ingham explained. He did not say that he would apply that rule. He had said it would be applied elsewhere.]Mr. Sergeant said he accepted the explanation of his colleague, whom he should be sorry to misunderstand. No doubt he meant that it was not a rule which, as a member of the House, he would apply here; But he submitted to him that it was unsafe and uncharitable every where. He had the sanction of the House for saying it was unjust. The first rule we arc obliged to adopt is, that no member shall be at liberty to impeach another member’s intention. Upon what grounds the people of this country would decide the question now pending .before them, he would not now inquirehe would not say a single word. As one of the people, lie had his rights, which at proper times and on proper occasions he would freely exercise.Some particular instances have been more or less alluded to in the debate. Among the rest, was the mission to England. It was said the minister had returned re infecla,and of course it must have been meant that there was all the expense of the mission without any corresponding benefit. What was the fact ? The hand of sickness had fallen upon the minister, as it may upon any of usit may now be upon some of usand incapacitated him to perform the duty. Can this be matter of charge against any body ?[Mr. Randolph explained. He expressed his deep regret for .that gentleman, (Mr. King,) and declared that the words did not import any reflection upon him, nor attach any blame to him.]Mr. Sergeant proceeded. They were not so understood. He was sure that the gentleman from Virginia did not mean to say one unkind or reproachful word of Mr. King. The allusion to the unproductiveness of the mission had come from another quarter, and he (Mr. S.) had adopted the phrase used by the gentleman from Virginia, (Mr. Randolph.) It was his (Mr. S.’s) object to show that no one was to blame for the issue, neither he who undertook the mission, nor those who appointed him. Of that eminent man, all know something, but few of us, probably, know the full extent and measure of his services to his country. He confessed that he had himself been ignorant till within a few days past, when he was led into an inquiry which discovered to him a length and magnitude of public service beyond what he had before known or supposed. With regard to his age, it was sufficient to say, that he had just left the Senate, when he was appointed to England, and that body afterwards approved the nomination. He was not so old as Franklin was when he left this country for France, and Franklin served his country faithfully and ably as their minister for eight years and a half. [Mr. Randolphwas here understood to say" there could not have been a better choice."]Of that mission, he said, which had also been alluded to, in which he had the honour to have a part, the mission to Panama, he should always have difficulty in speaking, for very obvious reasons. At this time, it was impossible he should enter into the subject, because the mission was still pending, in the hands of our minister at Mexico. He would say, however, in reply to the allegations which had been made against it, that the mission had the clear sanction of all the branches of the government.
