Iiom tonsideratiot.s merely sellish, your petitioners beg leave to state' the chief reasons which have induced tlicm to adopt their present course. In the first place, the law of which wc complain is st palpable violation of nil other laws
relative to properly, which principles is, to compel every one "so as to use his own, as not to injure that which belong to another." IJut the law of enclourcs actually permits ns
to ii jure others by means of our stock, unless they mnken fence of a cerlainheightto guard against those very injutics which ju.-lu cde mandsthal the perpetrators should be prohibited from committing under any cirrsiinstnn
ces. Instead of compelling slock owners them5 lf restrain their stock from depredating
r people s lands, w hic.J the above cited to principle clearly enjoins, the land owners arc forced to protect both it, and its products at an enormous expense of extra fencing; or to sulfer without the smallest compensation, all the losses they may incur from the want of this extra fencing. In tlie second place, we complaio of this law, more ill will and more lasting animosities hetweenindividuals. nnd often whole
families, than any other law in our whole code; indeed, we believe it may be truly said, of more than nil the others put together. Lastly, il imposes upon every land owner

as to guard against every other person's stock,

an average, amounts to Iwo months in every year, and that it certainly could be abridged one month or more, thereby saving at least or.c-twclflh, or more, of the w hole labor be
stowed throughout ihe State, in the single
business of fencing, if the law ontbis subject
were exactly the reverse of what it is. Compel each person so to lake car of his own

bor's property, and not a cultivator of land in our who!,; community, whether he be pro-
prielorormcretenant,but would bethorough-
ly convinced in less than a year, of the im
mense advantages of the change. Indeed, we
know no reflecting persons any where, with
whom we have conversed on this subject, who
do not admit the Iruth of Ihe foregoing argu
ments. Vour Petitioners beg leave further to rep
resent, that the ciicums t nces of the country when this law was passed, having entirely changed, the law itself cannot now be justified, if it ever could be, even on the score of policy. We have no longer (at least in the tide water part of our slate) extensive tracts of cultivated, unenclosed lands deemed of lil tic or no immediate value to Ihe proprietor; fencing materials are becoming comparatively very scarce, and thereby the actual expense of labor in collecting and applying them has been enormously enhanced, while the products of our impovei iahed fields can very illy sustain this most unnecessary deduction from their net proceeds; add to this, the opinion is daily gaining ground, that even uncultivated lands will much improve by excluding ( Very kind of stock from them. All these rheum stances combined, render legislalivc inloilVrence imperatively ncessary , lor the evils enumerated admit of no other remedy. They have prevailed so long indeed; as to give rise to notions in some parts of our country , relative to landed rights, which, would reduce us nearly to a stale of nature. These nat'ons make all land, not actually cultivated in some crop, a species of common property for all
who choose to turn llicir stock on; and this loo, whether they be under enclosure or not. Now, if our lands be really our properly, it
follows a a necessary consequence, that each

pation of extra fencing- I hough last, and least, the peace, comfort and harmony of eve
ry neighborhood would be incalculably in creased hy removing forever, this most copi ous, most pernicious source of contention and
animosity. Make it, therefore, wc entreat your honorable body, no longer to depend upon Ihe height of each man's fence, whether
his neighbors stock shall be raised upon his
lands or not; bullet it rest, as it always should do, upon his own free choice, how far he him
self will extend the privilege to otheis. It
would be often granted, and would thus prove
a bond of union instead of being what it no.v is, a brand of continual discord.

THE CRISIS
The following article, from the Boston
Daily Adveitiscr, commends itself to the
sober consideration of every citizen who
loves his connlry, and desires the perpelu
ation of its political and social institutions:
I HE 1 RANSITION FROM ANARCHY TO UF.SPO
T1SM. The attempt is making, and has partially succeeded, to array the physical st rength of the country against the in ajoiity of thesubstantiil citizens, and theoideily and peaceful members of the community. Ti e object we are sorry to say is more easily effected than could be wished or credited. A weli trainsd veteran army of a couple cf hundred thou sand men is oflen suihcient to make a conquest of u kingdom containing ten or twelve
millions o( iniiuhitunls. II il were not rcsis
ted by another army , one tenth of that number of armed men might subjugate a conti nent. The Ihilish, with about 30,000 Euro pean and 12.000 native troops, hold one hundred and ten millions of souls, in llindoslon. in subj-.-ciion. The lory p-.ilicy, at present, in tho.-e parts of the country w here it is appli cable is founded on the same principle. A comparatively small, well organized, and nieicen.try force principally of aliens is em ploy ed to control the appioat h to the polls, In intimidate and oveiawe die aged, the infirm, and peaceful, and to make the xen ise of (he elective fi anchi.-e, even f.r those whonrc abb by courage and lone, to make their wav
through the mob, laborious, dangerous, and
disgusting. What is the result of this state of things? is it in an increase of power in the ' oyicV hands? Nothing farther from the truth. The people ate not a mob; a mob is not the people. The people is it gteal whole, a mixed community , iin hiding within its bosom tin old and the young. the strong and ihe weak, (he resolute and the timid. The fust effect.
therefore, of this system of violence is to de
prive one full moiety of the people of their dearest rights. In every ten men, du re will lie not more than one bully; but if this one man stations himself in the public places , to browbeat, insult, and assault iho-e who pas -y, threeor four, out of the ten, w ill put them selves to some inconvenience, to keep out ol his way. Just as a sluidv , rie uc'iil peasant

So it was, too, with the heroes of '76 the glory of the American name was every thing to
them, and the wretch who should have dared
to insult the dignity of the Continental Congress,.
would have met the puni-hment he deserved.
but alas for these degenerate times! Who now
ever hears from those in power the voice of pat
riotism, calling upon the American citizens to eustain the dignity and honor of the American name? Who. of the whole clas of Van Huren-
i(s, vindicates the character of the American
Congress, when the President of the United
States,the Chief Magistrate of the nation,sworn protector of the honor and glory of the American name, boldly and feailessly declares to our citizens and to the nations of Europe, that one branch of Ihe government is "bribed by Ihe Bank," and then through his serv ile official paper denounces again and again the Stnate of the United Slates as "profligate and corrupt.1' How long would the citizens of the British Government allow King William to remain on hit throne, should he dare to insull the dignity of either House of Parliament by declaring them "corrupt?" Who could restrain the fury of the French citizens, should Louis Philip dare tell
the Chamber of Depntics of France that they were "bribed?" Put here, in this land of con.
titutional liberty, every feeling of pride, every
obligation of patriotism, is lost in the whiilwind of parly. Ambition and avarice celebrate (heir unhallow ed litesupon die very alter of Liberty,
