from' St. Vincents of the "th nit. giving very

gloomy accounts from the neighboring islands,

and froir. Trinidad in particular; where in one

instance, real property which had been judi

sacrificed at a forced sale of j230. Incendi

plantation, named Concord, owned by Madame

will give yon a single example in illustration: corn is usually sold in this place at 40 to 50

cents per barrel; this spring, I suppose a thou j

sand barrels have been brought to this county ftom Kentucky, which sold from 7 to 3 dollars, for seed Moreover, the spring, thus far, has been very unfavorable; althoogh it is now the middle of May, not more than one. third of 'he corn has been planted, and a great deal of that

which has been planted has rotted the ground

being so cold and wet. Add to all these, gloo

my circumstances, the disturbances created by the hostile Indians, near Rock Island, which has taken from this part of the countiy 1600 men, at a time the most important of the year, when

they should have been engaged in preparing their land, acd you will form a pretty correct idea of our prospects.

Buf although these things may straiten our

citizens, they cannot permanently check the

ample, to be prostrated by even such a concur

of emigration may, and in all probability will,

tor a time, be checked; but such 9foppage will be temporary." The same letter adds, that there is a great scarcity of food in the army, and that expresses had been sent to the contractors for an immedi ate supply.

A good Deacon, in the land, of steady habits, who piously eschewed all worldly labor and recreation on the sabbath, one Sunday morning, having totally forgotten the day of the week, went out early a fishing for trout. He had glorious luck, and brought a tine string of speckled backs as ever graced a frying pan. "I've had a fine time of it this morning,'' said he joyfully, as he entered his house the trout bit like the nation." "But, deacon," said his wife, "didn't you know V;as Sunday?" "How! what!
