Districting.-—Many of the political writers
in this state are at present engaeted in €ll5Cll5'
Sing the merits and ,d merits of the bill
which passed the House of Assembly last
spring fordistrictityg tlte state for the choice
‘of Setiator§. The bill is opposed principally
_'on the ground -that it is too imperfect in its
details, and will operate very unequally,whi|e
jts friends claim that all which is at present
desiialile is the establ isliment of the prt'ncipIc.
believing that its details cati be regulated at
pleasure. A writer in the Hartford Titties,
who does not believe in this sort oflegislation.
‘gives the following table to shew the itiequal-
ity of the Districts as proposed by the hill.

, “ The Bill provides that the counties of
jlartford, New Haveti, Fairfield, and Litch-
,fig.ld, shall each fortn one district; and the
.;co'unties of New London and Middlesex one,
and the counties of VViudhaui and Tollatid
"also one district. The number ofinhabitants
in each district, would stand thus:

 

HartfordCount_V, 47.9.84
New Haven do. 39,616
N6\ErI§Ond0l1 do. .‘5l‘..66°.7. .
Middlesex do. 242,405 E m’067
Fairfield do. 452,739
Windham do. 9.3.965
Ttlland do. 14,330 E 43’Q95
Litclifield do. 41,957
‘£75,948

, From the above statement, it appears that
the Hartford District will contain nearly
8,000, and the New London and Middlesex
district nearly 22,000 ! more inliabitatltsthan
the New Haven district. This is districting
with a vengeance,—ntaking one more than a
third larger than another, atid imposing upon
it an excess ofpoptilatioti, greater than one
half ofthe ratio,(40,000) as fixed by Congress,
for a representative l”

Ottr sentiments with regard to the late po-
litical meeting at Faitficld we have’ reason to
believe are heartil_v approved by the great
majority oflthe republican party. Indeed all
wlto have become acquainted with the facts
connected with this business are nnatiiniotis in
their condemnation ofthe proceedings oftlte
nieetinu,aud in their expression of disgust

D .
and disapprobation at this attempt to distract

the 1_{epub+ican party, and ptit down one of

it-s"t'nost valuable members. Even those who
most warmly advocate the District system re
gret audcondetnn the ill-advised and hasty
iiieasures of these pretended friends of the
people's rights, and vociferous advocates for
republican principles. Not one Republican
editor in the state has published the resolu
tiotis adopted by the meeting, without accom-
panying thcni with his decided protest against
‘that which reconmiends another candidate
for the Senate in the rooui of Judge ‘Hill.-
The editor of the New Londott Advocate,
than wliotti there is not a tiiore strenuous
friend of Districting in the state, says———“ It is
certain all is not right! If so, why is so val-
uable a titan as Mr. Hill disposed ofin this
uuceremonious titanner ? unless, indeed, this
is to be a part ofthe new system ofDistrt.cl
ing. or theliiieans to carry into effect. The
citizens oftliis state are ititimately acquainted
with Mr. Hill, a-nd acknowledge his worth»-
tliere are ttiatiy who would be loath to part
with his counsels, and tuore especially, will
be dissatisfietl with (his niauner ofdoing bu
sincss.” \\’hile such is the tinifortn language
of the Republican editors those of the oppo-
site party as utiiforuily approve of the meet»
ing, and recommend the adoption of similar
measures iii the other counties. Btit the plan
will tit.t work. The people of this state must
have stronger evidence than they have yet
had ofthe propriety of supporting those who
.s'etlc_fbr ofiice, who demand it as their right.
who claim it on account of their services, be-
fore they will consent to relinqtiisli thoie in
whom they are wotit to place their confidence,
and whom they know to deserve it in a de-
gree at least equal to those who press their
claims with such untiring industry and vehe-
ineiice. We know that this charge ofclaim-
ing office can be itiade good against more
than one who figtired at the meeting in qties-
tion—we know thatthe real cause oftheir
great anxiety for the success of the District
systettt is founded in the belief that their
claitns can be prosecuted under it with a grea-
t-er prospect ofsuccess than the present system
alfordstliem ; and we know that this selfish
principle of action is one which all honest
men disapprove, and will lend their united
efforts to put down.
Having said thus niucli of what we believe

to have been the motives ofthose concerned *

in this meeting, we shall now suffer utie of the
prime movers ofit to speak for himself, and
defetid the cotirse which has been adopted.—-
We have only to express our surprise that be
has not learnt wisdom frotn experience, and
instead ofattenipting still further to deceive
the people, by concealing his place ofrcsi-
dence, and dating his cotntiiuiiicatiott twenty
milcs front the place where it was written, he
had not come out boldly, and given his read-
ers sonic clue as to the man to wliotn they
were indebted for so much information. But
this would not do. The truth canttot be told
at all times with safety, and if the public can
only be made to believe that there are men in
.‘:~'lu-nrfortl as well as Slr'a/flirt! who are advo-
-cates for the Meeting the object may yet be
uccotnplishcd I I We will tuerely add that
the writer as tiittcli mistakes _some things in
his comtnunit-.ation w_hich he pretends to know
all about, as he mistook his own interest it)
being so active at the Fairfield tncctiuu.

Kiln. BEN!-3DlC'1‘—I find in your two last
numbers sotne severe remarks upon the late
3;-‘airfield County 3lectiti_«._v,——tlte ostenstblc ob-
ject of which appears to be to favour the re-
clectinti ofone of our honorable Senators, to
«In which it is necessary to convince the pub-
lic that Le is, and ever has been, in favour of
districting. I pretend not to know the real
st.-titiuieuts ofJudge Hill: If however, we are
to estimate the value of a tree by the fruit it
produces, the public I think will be satisfied
that Judge. Hill is not the ttiatt to carry their
views relative to districting into efft,-ct. The
influence of Jntlge Hill at the last session of
the Legislature was almost uuboundctl~—and
it will not be clainietl even by his best friends,
that that influence was excrted—'m procuring
the passage ofthe resolutions for districting:
on the contra-ry,tlic-y all know that be was up-
I

a session of the Lcgislattire since the Consti-
tution was adopted, bttt the subject has been
either before the House in form or in co_titetn-
plation in the uiitids of the members ;- and
will the supporters of Judge Hill say that his
out door influence has not._ been uttifotmly op-
posed tothe tneas‘u_re. _Why? Not that he
has said the print:i'ple was wroug—but “ the
proper .‘.i'me.f/ms not arrz'v'cd.” When will that
tiuie arrive? What was to hinder the passage
of the resolutions last spring? Wasit that
certain tneu feared that certain seats would
be occupied by other men ifthe state was dis-
tricted? But these certain tneti are in favor
ofdistricting the state when the proper time
arrives and the proper course is pursued : but
they are “ not to be kicked into it”——in plain
English they are not prepared to give up their
seats. But the I<‘airficld County meeting was
a clttnrlesfitte meeting : But about twenty-five
uialcontents, a.~piring tlt2l1lag0;;u(:S, and disap-
pointed oflicc seekers attended, and nouiina-
ted the absent Judge V\"ildni-an in place of
Judge Hill. And why nominate Judge Vv'ild-
tnau ?—because Zaltnon Wildtnati is kuowti
to be in favor oftlistrictiug now. Jugde Hill
will bein favor oftlte uieasurc when tlieprop-
or time arrives. The friends of districtmg do
not wish to await Judge Hill’s opitiion of the
proper time, _But say yoti Judge Hill was
not prepared to pass an important bill with
the rapidity of lightning. V\’as the subject of
districtiug a novel subject ? Or has six years
been too short a titne for a grave senator to
form an opinion of the correctness of’princi-
ples contended for twelve years previous to
his becoming a senator. You ask why it is
necessary to drop Judge Hill. I answer be-
cause it is necessary to district the state. It
would appear by your paper that Daubury
was represented by but one man, and that
man an alien front the Republican ranks-—be
it so. Who that man tvasl know not: But
‘one thing I do know, atid that is the author
ofthe piece in your paper, atid he is not an
alien Republican, for he never was one--he
is a tolerationist—a Judge—~witlt all the zeal
ofa new convert.* Will you say sir, that the
gentlemen who composed that meeting are
aliens from Republicanisni ? Is the peacable
assemblage of republicans to deliberate on
measures important to the welfare oftlte state
an alienation froui Republican principles ?-
Or will yoti assert that because Judge Hill
was nominated itt Hartford by a caucus cutti-
posed ofa part ofthe members oftliis county,
he must he re-elects-d, whatever the County
of Fairlield may tliitik or say to the contrary.
Is a nomination by a dozen men in Hartford
more binding on the ele(‘.tt)t‘s ofthis County,
iltau a nomination uiade by an equal titttnber
in Fairfield? I respect honest principles,
cottic from what source they may. [contend
not for uieii but measures. The object ofthe
resolutions passed at the Fuirfield County
meeting was measures, not men. It was ftoni
no hostility to Judge Hill that he was not
ttotiiiuated to the Senate; but because the
meeting were thoro’ly convinced that Judge
Hill would oppose their favourite measure,
districtiug: In addition to which Judge Hill
has repeatedly declared his earnest wish to
retire from the Senate, and they did not wish
to force liitn to a seat against his will ; and
they would not be any longerdecetved by false
professions. The man who professes to be
in favor ofany public iiieasure and acts in di-
rect contradiction to those professions, may
deceive for a while, btit in the ctid the public
will justly appreciate these professions and
place them to the hypocrite’; account. Tho’
they may listen to his syren songs for awhile,
they will by and by find “ some enemy hatlt
beguiled them.” It has become quite fash-
ionable with the present. office holders and
their dependents to cry treason: ifatiy Repub-
lican gcmletiiati express his sentiments free-

the ruling party, he is at once denounced and
called a federal—an apostat.e—-an alien frotti
the party, &I.c. And auiotig the tiiost forward
to cry havoc, and let loose the dogs of news-
paper invedtives, are a setofyoung federalist.»
suddenly trunstnuted in the crucible oftolera-
tion itito full grown patriots, making ttittch
noise about distticiting, ainalgauiation, feder-
al plots, &z.c.——remiuding tne ofa young bum-
ble bee which is always largest when first
hatched. But aside frotti any remarks upon
enthusiast: and coxconibs, let tne return to the
tnain question ofdistricting. Had the friends
of the measure otiglit to support men who
have uniformly been hostile to their desires?’
If the proper titne has not arrived when will
it arrive? Assign one just reasoti why the
state should not new be districted, and yoti
will aid the anti-districtgentlemen ti thousand
fold more than you will by misrepresenting
the motives of the Fairfield County Meeting.

* The writer does not know as muclt as he
thinks he docs,for this assertion is totally false.

It will be recollected that in an account or
the lateTurkisli expedition against the Greeks
it was uientiuned that tlterc were seven Eng-
lish and one Jlmcrican vessel employed as
transports. It is now ascertained that the A-
merican vessel is Erin, her captain’s name
Lowrance, atid that site belongs itt A/‘cw York.
These facts ought to be kttottm that those con-
cerned may nieet with the itulignatlion which
they merit for prostituting tltc American flag
to such a St rvicc,&. that others may be tauglii
that it is dangeruns~ to outrage in so gross a
manner the cause of liberty and liutnanity.
T/zcalrical .'lIora.ls.—-A few tiiglits since,

From the. report ofthe Cuttiuiissioners ap-

./1 accomlzrra Colburn.—-'1‘he sou ofJudge
Clayton, of Atltcns, Geo. about 10 years of
age, possesses the tiiost astonishing arithmct
ical powers of mind. He cati reduce any
given number of miles to inches, years to sec
ouds, &*.c. performing the whole operations in
his head, and will give the result as quick as

the questions asked him, were the following,
which be solved with case and expedition :—
How many inches are there in 1,373,489
miles? How often will a nheel 5 feet 6 in-
chcs in diatiteter ttirn over in 90 niiles? What
is the cube root of :Z=l,74:3,6tl‘2? He has on
tiiore than one occasion, ( t 8 months ago) rais-
ed the nuniber 1:’. to its fifteenth power—that
is to say, multiplied that number into itself 15
times. He can multiply three figures by
three figures. The whole is performed by
the bare strength of meuiory, for it is done in
the usual way, there is no mystery in it, no
short uiethod or plan of his own. This fac-
ulty was discovered in him at about 8 years
of age, and has most astonishingly improved
since that titiie.

Among the novelties, and we may add, the
appropriate novelties oftlte times, was the ad-
dress delivered in the assembly chamber, on
Saturday afternoon, 18th inst. by John New-
conib, a native of the New Stockbridge tribe
of Indians. He is a very intelligent young
man, about 20 years ofage, atid has been ed-
ucated at the school iti Cornwall. The ad-
dress, which was of the nature of an eulogium
upon the effects and advantages ofcivilzatiou
and of free govefmitetit, and ofthe particular
advances of our own country in these respects,
was a favorable effort, both in the matter and
in the delivery, and was well received by it
consideralile asseniblage of members of the
legislature and citizcns.—fllban_7/ flrgus.

./flgootl z'c_gttlrt(to1t.—Ft‘oin the last Report

it appears that, according to arratigemctits re
cently made, every individual composing the
British army is to be ptit in possession ofa bi-
ble, which lie will be required to produce for
the nispectlon of his superior officers every
six tiioutlis.

The Savannah papers state that Hr. Clin-
ton, and Mr. Jenckes, have returned frotii an
exploring excursion, oti the route of the con
tentplatetl canal to titiite the Alatamaha with
the Ogeecltee and Savannah. The result of
the observations during the tour are liiglily fa-
vorable to the undertaking, atid it is expected
that the ground will be broke early in Decem-
ber next. There cati be no doubt that in the
cottrse of two years, the proposed canal will
be completed, and its benefits realized.

Smuggling.-—-'l.‘lte Canadian Courant,
states that large quantities of whiskey have
been smuggled itito Canada frotti the United

in Canada, that sinuggltug is art obycct. _ y

North Seventh street, near the mill dam, was
totally destroyed with all its contents. This
valuable establislnnent was for the manufac-
