Randolph,
About 5 feet 6 or 8 inches high, very blue
eyes, square shouldered, well built, has a
down look when spoken to, walks and speaks quick, his dress not recollected. When last
heard from, he had crossed the Ohio at the Yellow Banks, and was about 15 mile up the river, on the road to Corydon, and enquiring for Vincennes. It is probable he is aiming for Ohio He will try to pass for a free man, but I think he has not obtained a pass. He is a bright Mulatto, 18 or 20 years old.

There is now nearly completed at the spot, an excellent TUUM'IKE BKIUOE, which will bo of great utility to Emigrants to the West ; and an extensive TANNERY is pro paring in the suburbs of the Town, the valuable advantages of which it is unnecessary to explain. As this Town is equi-distant from Palmyra, the seat of justice in Vdwarda County, and Palestine, iu Crawford, which are more than forty miles distant, the presumption is strong, that ere long, there will be a NEW CO UN IY laid o!f from part of both, and that Smallsburg will be the Seat of Justice. There is no Town on the waters of the West, which osfers more inducements to the enterprising emigrant. 1 he healthiness of the climate, the i ich soil of the surrounding country, the rapidly increasing population of the neighborhood, into which so strong a tide of migration is flowing, its beautiful situation on a navigable river, which will soon bear on it hoMMii toe rich products of a land of inexhaustible fertility ; these advantages, comUiiitfd with the easy terms offered by the Pioprietor, certainly present the fairest Held for the exi-rcise of capital, industry and enterprise, of any Town in the Western Country.
