ZEPHANIAH SWIFT MOORE, D. D. President of the Amherst Collegiate Institution. In the death of Dr. Moore, not only the Institution over which he presided, but society has suffered a great loss. His learning, moderation and wisdom enabled him to be of great service to the college, and his friendly and condescending manners to persons of all ranks, greatly endeared him to the cit izens of the place, where he resided. He received his education at Dartmouth college, where he graduated in 1793. He commenced his ministry at Leices ter, Ms. where he was ordained when a young man. After a lapse of some years, he was appointed a professor of Dartmouth college, and remained in that office from 1811, to 1815. About the last period, he was appointed President of Williams college, where he remained five years. On the foundation of the Amherst Institution, he was elected President. The satisfactory manner in which he discharged the duties of all those various offices, his piety and irreproachable life, and his benevolence and industry made an impression on the minds of every one who had the honor of being acquainted with him, which will long remain mixed with sorrow and regret. In Somers, N. Y. Dr. ELIAS CORNELIUS, 65, a patriot and sufferer in the, war of Independence. At the age of 20, he quit the place of his nativity, on Long Island, and being recommended by his instructor, Dr. Samuel Lathan, he went in the year 1777 to New-York, and obtained a commission of Surgeon's Mate in the 2d regiment of Rhode-Island troops, under the command of Col. Israel Angel. He had not been long in the army, when upon occasion of reconnoitering the position of some of the enemy's forces, he was taken prisoner, and carried to the "Old Provost" jail in New-York, where he suffered almost incredible hardships till March, 1778, when, with great courage and presence of mind, he made his escape; joined the army again, and continued in it a highly respected officer, till the close of 1781. In Portsmouth, June 24, Capt. NATHANIEL KENNARD, 68. At the commencement of the war of the revolution, he entered as a volunteer in one of the first regiments in Massachusetts, for the teria of one year. At the expiration of that engagement, he entered on board a private armed vessel-was captured, car ried to England and kept in close coufinement at the Mill Prison for two years and a quarter, being encouraged with no other prospect, than a still protracted confinement, or a termination of it by being hanged as a rebel. Thence he was sent to France in a cartel, where on the 20th April, 1779, he entered on board the Bon Homme Richard, under the celebrated John Paul Jones, and was with him in some of the most desperate enterprizes, in which that com mander was engaged. From that vessel he was put on board a prize and ordered for France. He was again captured and carried into Hull in the north of England, transported to Spithead, put on board the Unicorn frigate and compelled to do duty until, at the eminent hazard of his life, he escaped in the Island of Jamacia. Thence he returned to America, a little before the close of the war. After the peace of '83, he engaged in the merchant service and continued a reput able ship master until near the commencement of the late war, when he was appointed by government to the command of a Revenue Cutter and con. tinued in the same to the close of the war. After that period, until his death, he was employed as an Inspector of the Customs at this port. In Barre, Ms. Dr. EPHRAIM BROOKS, a native of Concord, Ms. long an eminent physician of the former place, but for several years an invalid in consequence of a fall from his horse. In Quincy, Ms. June 2, PETER BOYLSTON ADAMS, Esq. 35, brother of the late President of the U. S. LONGEVITY. In NEW HAMPSHIRE. In Amherst, Capt.

Soon after their arrival be deserted the British, and afterwards joined the revolutionary army, in which he continued during the war. APPENDIX. PUBLIC AFFAIRS IN JULY AND AUGUST. SPAIN. This country, were we to credit the French accounts, offers no serious obstacle to the march of her invaders. Instead of meeting brave men, disputing their passage at every step, they seem only to be pursuing a host of fugitives. Great allowances, however, must be made for the exaggeration of French accounts; and until the last torch of liberty is extinguished in Spain, we should not despair of her ultimate triumph. Should she withstand the shock until winter, she may light her invaders to destruction in re-crossing the Pyrennees. king was met with due ceremony by the municipal authorities, and the keys of the fortress were delivered to him. His arrival was announced by salutes of artillery, and ringing of bells. The Cortes convened at Cadiz on the 15th of June, at which time the temporary regency was abolished, the king reinstated, and measures for the defence of the place were immediately adopted. On the departure of the king from Seville, disturbances of a very serious nature took place; which were said to be instigated by friars, and others disaffected to the Constitutional cause. For three days the most horrid excesses were con mitted, which were only arrested by the intervention of a strong military force. The constitutional troops, however, soon abandoned Seville; and it is probable that the French entered that place on or about the 20th June, although there are no official accounts to that effect. The minister of War, SALVADOR, terminated his existence at Cadiz on the 18th, by cutting his throat with a razor. The reasons assign On the approach of the French troops towards Seville, the Cortes required of the King, as a measure of safety, bis immediate removal to Cadiz. His majesty, with all the dignity becoming his royal station, refused to comply with this request as a King, but, at the same time, professed his readiness to submit to any sacrifices, in his individual ca pacity. The Cortes thereupon proceeded to declare the king morally incompetent to exercise his authority, and they then established a provisional regency to superintended for this act, are, the sudden inthe removal of the king. On the / 12th of June, Ferdinand and the Royal family left Seville, with an escort of 6000 armed troops, for the double purpose, probably, of retaining him as their prisoner and protecting him from the enemy. The Cortes, the Regency, &c. followed in the train; and the cavalcade arrived at Cadiz on the 14th of June; at which place they were received according to the Cadiz papers, with great enthusiasm. The vasion of Andalusia by the French, the riots at Seville, &c.; but report had been busy in attaching to the deceased, treachery to the cause in which he was ostensibly embarked. A French fleet was said to be off Cadiz, and to hold the port in a state of blockade. having prevented the entry of two American vessels. This circumstance, together with the great addition to the number of its inhabitants, had rendered the necessary articles of sub sistence extremely scarce and dear, at that place. The restriction on the importations of foreign provisions had been removed, in part, and a new tariff instituted. The Cortes, in appearance at least, evinced their determination to adhere to the Constitution, at the risk of their lives; and in this spirit the population of Cadız seemed to participate. The joy which was manifested, and tb cougratulations which were offered at the entry of the government into that place, is stated, in some accounts, to have been intended for the Cor tes, and not for the king, whom the people of Cadiz are said to hold in the utmost contempt. We could wish that the people of Spain would look with a single eye, and exercise their united strength to repel this most unholy invasion of their territory—if this were the case, the physical resources of the nation would render the result scarcely doubtful. But the occurrences at Seville, when it was for a moment free from the immediate power of the government, and various other circumstances, indicate a want of unanimity, which may paralyze the national energy, and subject the people to the imposition of a government little less despotic than any they have yet endured. N. E. Galaxy. A counter-revolution was commenced on the 27th of May, by Gen. Sepuleda who revolted with 10,000 men, and proclaimed a revulution in favor of the King, and against the Cortes. The verbal accounts say, that the King, at first appeared to disapprove of the measure, would not see Sepuleda, and denounced him as a traitor.

Extract of a letter, lately received from the Gulf of Corinth, dated the 1st of April last. This town [Vostizza, the ancient Egeum] which, at one time contained 4000 inhabitants, has been in a state of ruin for two years. Every inhabitant, who escaped the sword and fire, has fled to the mountains; and the new tenants of the place had not yet cared to repair their precarious and still desolate tenements, though considerable parties have descended from their hilly retreat, to take advantage of the spring season. These we saw at work in the vineyards and gardens, all prepared, however, for the skir That this Counter-Revolution was popular with the higher and lower classes of the people, but ex-mish--each man with his pistol and tremely upopular among the middling classes and the landholders; and that there was no calculating the end of the Revolution. An embargo laid on vessels in Lisbon on the 2d June, was raised on the 3th, and business was assuming its wonted activity. GREECE. The Greeks have established a General Government for the whole nation. The first meeting of their National Congress, under the new constitution, closed on the 30th of April last. The thanks of that Congress have been voted to the armies through whose valor, in the course of sixteen months, more than 90,000 of their enemies had been destroyed. The High Admiral of the Turkish fleet had been ordered to commence the immediate attack of the Grecian Islands, and to prosecute the war with the utmost vigor. The same orders had been issued to the Pachas in Thessaly, Lividia, &c. and accounts from Larissa to the 2d May stated, that the Pacha of Scentoria had embodied 30,000 men, and that columns were traversing that quarter. On the other hand, it is said that the Greeks are making great prep arations to repel the enemy--they are fully aware of the dangers which long knife in his girdle, while set up against the vine stakes, their piles of muskets were seen glittering in the sun. 'Tis astonishing with what wanton carefulness every house has been unroofed. Walking into some of the churches, we saw the whole furniture, and solemn garaiture, strewed among the ruins, just as they had been left; lamps, candelabras, were all broke up in pieces, and with the ashes of the roof, were heaped up around the a!tar. At this picture of sacrilege and desolation, we saw two or three Greeks peeping in as they passed us, shake their heads, then more firmly grasp their arms, and walk away.
