law only two ol those who voted against

Boundary Line The Montreal Courant of Oct. 5, says: the Commissioners for settling the boundary line, after deliberating for three days, adjourned on Wednesday last. We understand that they have determined the line between this place and Lake Erie, but it appears, from what we have been enabled to learn, that some difficulties are in the way of the Commissioners respecting some other portions of the country, where the line is to he fixed,which we hope may be amicably adjusted at their next meeting, without having recourse to the opinion of an umpire, agreeably to the articles at the treaty of Ghent, relative to the determining what is to be the exact b .u aiarv of the two countries. Messrs. B archx, i)r. Bigsbv. Hale, and Thompson, are empl-o -d on the part of the British government: and General Porter, and Messrs. l'Yr.'usooanl Delafield on that of the United .States.

U is a remarkable circumstance that the little county of Westin-rc!and, which lies on the Potomac, abo it 70 miles below Washington, and has o. about 000 voters, is said to have produced throe Presidents of the United States; three Secretaries of state; three foreign Minsters; three Judges of the Supreme Court; three Governors, and three Revolutionary Generals. It is the birth place of Gnu Washington, Mr. Madison, Mr. Monro-, of Arthur Lee. the first Minister to France, of Chief Justice Marshall ami Judge Washington, of Gen. H. Lee, and of Richard Henry Lee, the great orator of the first Congress, and who, but for the illnessofhis wife, was to have written the Declaration of Independence. AWc.v. It appears by a writer in a Georgia paper, that a license, costing fifty dollars, must be taken out of the municipal court, before any quantity of liquor less than three gallons can be sold. Poisoning from Tobacco. Mary Turner, a child of six years of age, living at Stratford, swallowed a portion of half smoked tobacco, which she took out of her mother's pipe, and in the evening was seized with a violent retching, which continued till next day, when she died. This was from the poisonous oil contained in the tobacco which exudes in smoking. English paper. .

This paper, though it will be more particularly intended for the juvenile part of societv, will williugly receive the experience of ekler age. Manv of our ycutl.s, whose talents are now kept withiH themselves, may be the means of improving each othe r'0 minds, by unfolding their abilities in communications for the Medley. Thus, hours, which would otherwise pass unimproved, may find employment for one, and bring entertainment and instruction to another. A in a no f knowledge and experience, who makes no use of his abilities, has been, by an author compared to a miser. I desire that my little paper may be the means of drawing out, for the good ot others, the wealth of the juvenile mind, and the dormant properties of experience. The female world may find the Medley a rcccptaile for their expanding talents and acquired abilities, which may furnish for both sexes, inslructioQ ami amusement. Though my paper may be an olio, yet there will be, ever and anon, a matter treated of, which can not be commingled with the mixture. Political subjects are too generating of heal to become an inferedientof our feast. Communication tending to the injury of any particular person, will be counted a pnion to the sociable entertainment, and will b cast into oblivion's gulph. Sometime I may throw into the dishes, an ingredient of considerable gravity, but not so powerful a to draw the sun from its station, nor the revolving1 moon from its singularly singular orb. Neither shall the stellar bodies dance in sympathetic tune to my poetic and mellifluent words, nor this earth Symmesonian burst its shell with laughter at my wit: but, the virtuous may find delight in modest apparel, the gleeful youth receive instruction from the "entertainments of selst,, and the wisdom of age, pleasure from various sources bounded by reason, and stimulation from the whole.
