From the facts which have thirs been, as I

the National Government. The territory and
re'sour'ces ‘of this‘ state, are confined within
Iiarrow limits; we are surrounded by opulent
and enterprising neighbours, who attract to
themselves many. of our educated and indus-

vy tlicrn the possessiori» of their advantages.

career, we have, during everyperiod, assisted
in the defence oftbe soil ofthis country, with
our treasures and our blood ;——we may appeal
to our laws, to the institutions which we have
reared, and to the social habits which we have
rm-med, for proofs of our republican princi-‘
ples §——we have been, and nrust remain a col
onizing state,and we believe,that intelligent,
intltistrious and virtuous citizens, are the best
donations which can be presented to the new

ask no partial favors, btit that we may be per-
mitted to share in ajust proportion with otir

we are anxious to accelerate.

' CUBA.-—There are strong indications of
an attempt on the part of Mexico and Coloni-
«bia to eurancipate Cuba. Much alarm ap-
pears to have been excited aiirong the Span-
ish authorities at Matanzas, and precautiona-
ry incasures are adopted. The inhabitants.
we presume, are pretty generally disposed to
accept ol'independence,be it offered by whom
it may. There are certain powers in Europe
however, wlriclrhave, for some time past,cast
a lorigirig ,eye towards this island ;- and it is
probable that they will not regard with iiidif-
ference any effort to place it lieyond their
grasp. Spain herself, perhaps, will scarcely
reinain an idle spectator of such an effort.-
Trire it is, that she has not the force, suppos-
ing she ha.s energy enough to prevent the e-
niaiicipatiou of Cuba, by any direct exertion
ofher influence; but she may negociate away,
either to France or Great Britain, any claims
she may possess on the island,and tliris indnce
one of those powers tointer-fere. We hope
this will not be the case ; brit when we cast
our eyes on the map of North America, and
soothe importance ofthis little tongue offer-
ritory issuing out of the niotitli oftlie Mexican
Gulf; and then look to the unwearied assidu-
ity which Eriglarirl displays in the cultivation
of her comriici'cial connexion with Mexico,
we may stantlcxcused if we feel some appre-
hensions on the subject -—.-Vat. Journal.

written DUNNING ADDRESS to his de-
linquent custorirers, which shall be received

the purpose. It may be written either in prose
or verse; and may be either sarcastic or seri-
ous, coaxing or complaining,or any thing else
that the writer pleases ; only let it come to
the point, and have the effect of filling our
pockets with what has so long been our right-

forget to compliment many of our kind pat-

tended to us, and for their proiirptiress in

Bank War.——The Boston Banks have latc-
lv been following tip the plan oftbe N. York
Banks in rmining the country Banks for spe-
cie,and refusingto take their own notes in pay-
"fem f0|’ll18.corintry notes. But like the N.
Yorkers they will find this rather an unprofit-
ablegame, and be glad to give it up. A few
weeks ago the Salem Banks made at one pull
upon them a haul of 200,000 specie dollars,
aird by the last Courant wrr learn that the
Hartford Banks have made another pull of
Sl90,000. This latter was in return for :1
compliment from the Boston Banks rlernand-
ting $50,000 in specie for Hartford Notes.-
A letter from Portland, .to a gentleman in
Boston, says :—“ One of our pacltetsarriverl
to day from Boston, with over Sl0t),000 iir
specie. The “ Holy Alliance” will find it
hard work to “ take him rzll—vIzl11ou a2:.”——
They will find rr little Yankee srnir in these
regions——hard to heat. but harder to cool.-—
Your Banks took 60.000 in specie last week
from this place. Our Banks have iiearlytrvo
dollars inspecic to one ofbills in circulation.”
Since the above was in type, we have seen
a Boston article of May Eld, stating that there
was scarcely ever a time when that commu-
uity was so much pressed in relation to niori-
ey concerns as during the preceding week.-
All the banks refused to make any new dis-
counts, and specie, probably to the amount of
the capitals of one or t_wo oftheni, was all the
time travelling from Salem to Bdston, thence
to Hartford, back again to Boston, aria Provi-
dence, Portland, &Lc. &*.c. In this state of
things,it was perhaps impossible for the banks
to discotint notes, for it was pretty evident
that their capital, instead of being in their
vaults, was on wheels, under travelling orders,
to meet the rleiiranrls ofrival institutions,wlro
felt themselves aggrieved by the corn - : which
the“ allied banks” had adopted towards them.

were in vain made to extirrgtiisli the fire, and

tile rrraterial within its reach. Hundreds of
people, with the engines, were quickly assem-
lzled on -the wharf, but as quickly dispersed
upon learning that there were 2.’) kegs ofguii—

fire rezrched the powder, when a lnOSt!t‘etIICI]-

to the state prison for life. The cir'ctiinstan-
ces, as detailed in'Rochester papers aie these:
“ In 1814 Jones came from Massaclihsetts
to reside in this vicinity. Being, poor be en-
gaged asa hired laborer. ln tli_e family where
he resided, he made accidental discoveries of
the tenure oftitle by which 1000 acres of val-
uable land in Brighton was held, and conceiv-
ed the project of possessing himself ofthis
land by forgirrg a chain of titles frorri theori-
ginal graritor to his father. .He wasignorant
and illiterate, but the resources of his mind
were considerable. By a train of operations
he had so far effected his-p‘urp’osé, that in the
year 1821, he commericed-aib ejectnient suit
manufactured a deed for the.l000 acres, bear-
ing date in 1790. This deed was presented
at the circuit court -held at Rochester in 1322
and was so fully supported by perjured wit-
nesses, that it prevailed; Jones removed and
turned out ofpossession, the honest purchaser
and occupaut,of€.’00 acres, being a part oftbe
tract. He_tlrcii by other suits ' and negotia-
tions, obtainedpossessioir oftlre whole prem-
ises, comprised in his forged’ deed, which be
occupied for nrore than a year. But here
providence interposed to disclose his villainy.
By great perseverance and exertions, the facts
were one by one brought to light, and the for-
geries and perjuries made clear as day. The
trial at this circuit, cotnmenced with about 60
witnesses attending in court in bebalfof the
people, collected from fotir or five different
states. The trial.occupied nearly two days.
The jury then retired and in a short time re--
turned with a verdict—guilty. The conse-
quence will be, that this depredator on the
rights of others will be deprived ofhis iniqui-
tous gain; and the. honest pur'c-hasers ofa
valuable tract of land will be restored to the
homes from which they had been forcibly ex-
pelled. -—Jones has a family, and is now
past the uridrlle age. During the trial,‘-“as his
wickedrress was step by step disclosed, be ap-
peared nrrconcerned, and assumed a look of
the most hardened effrontery. ‘Vireo his
better courporting with his situation, and
seemed weighed rlown with all the agony ofa
guilty conscience. - '
- John Cloves S_r/mmcs writes to the editor of
the Ohio Gazette as follows:
“ I read in your paper ofyesterday, an ac-
cotint ofa British ship having reached a high-
‘er soritlr latitude than Cook,or airy other nav-
igator before has been known to do,and yet
was unobstructed by ice, and nothing appear-
ed to hinder proceeding onward. I feel con-_
frdent, and have long since published my
opinion, that the concave couptries can be
reached with facility by proceeding south-
wardly in any oftbe southern seas, and par-
ticularly frorri the Indian Ocean. Ought not
this coiifirmatiori of my doctrines to encour-
age Mr. Gray or Mr. Giraud, to incur the ex-
pense of a suitable exploring outfit towards
the south, both for fishing and discovering ?
Either of wlroni could, Ipresume, meet the
expense witlioutendangering their prhsperity.
According to my system, it is highly probable
that a ship properly directed on such an er-
rand,would reach a country where the inhab-
itants are c-rpcave antipode to those of the
exterior tropical regions, which country may
be coasted quite around the concave, along a
circle of°.Z0,000 miles in circumference, and a
great part abounding in tropical productions,
and the sea so free frorii dangerous storms, as
to be every where navigable by steam boats ;
and ifas is probable, the concave lands are
rriiicli clreqirered by such channels as Parry
found, so far as he penetrated, then the ships
might pass througli to Cook’s Inlet; 8:. thus
establish our clainr, by right ofdiscovery ;_..
and extend our couruierce and fisheries, iu
immeasurable extent. I believe I could "pilot
srrclr air expedition without, in-any material
degree, missing the proper course. '
