The fact mav be amusing, but it is nevertheless the fact. This ftelingis universal, and, as societies are constituted, it is natural and just. If people, then, are tenacious of their private property, we nued not wonder at their being watchful of that which they hold in their corporate capacity. They are necessarily more anxious and enquiring for the safe-, ty of that which they entrust to others, than for that ot which they have the immediate control and inspection. It is the effect of that self-love, that distrust and fear, which are inborn in human nature, and arise chief! v from oiir knowled;?. of it.

The IEM BAKU AS, at that place, affords one of the best MILL-SEATS in the western

It enjoys all the advantages of river navigation, as any boats, which float on the Wabash, can at all times come up to the Mill without obstruction. The Town is laid out at the cardinal points of the compass, which completely correspond w ith the course of the river at that place. SMALLSBUUG is laid out on a liberal

to themselves to lay a statement of their proceedings before the public. It is their duty ; and, when duty calls, no honorable mind can be delinquent. It is their interest, and interest operates on the basest and best dispositions. No reputation should suffer unjustly. Scandal is at work on the business of the COMMONS. The minds of the people are much agitated on the subject ; and they must be satisfied before a calm can be effected.

As this I own iscqui-distant from Palmy
ra, the seat of justice in Edwards County
and Palestine, in Crawford, which are more
than forty miles distant, the presumption is
rong, that ere tong, there will be a 2SEW
COUNTY laid off from part of both, and that
mallsburo will be the Seat of Justice. There is no Town on the waters of the
West, which offers more inducements to the
enterprising emigrant. The healthiness of
the climate, the rich 6oil of the surround-.ng 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 its bosom the rich products of a land of inexhaustible fertility ; these advantage? combined with the easy terms offered by the Proprietor, certainly present the fairest field for the crercise of capital, industry and enter prise, of any Town in the Western Country.
