We regret must sincerely, that we are not able to congratulate the public on the discovery of the vile wretch who was the cause of this eontiaz,ritt.Mn; bit fur the very laudable exertions of many respectable characters, and the general good conduct of tin: labourers, all the buildings must blve been inevitably destroye d. Mr. Barnard is generally respected; he liar never employed a thrashing machine. nor had any dispute with his labourers. The property destroyed is fully .covered by insurance in the Lists Fire office. During this melancholy scene, the dwelling I ttttt ses of two or three persons on Sooth-green, about a mile from the lire, were entered arid robbed; and it is fairly , vitiectured, that the depredators were persons con meted in the former wicked transaction. Mr. Richard Flower, a most respectable farmer fiom Hertfordshire emigrated with his property to America, and bas bought and settled with his family on land in the Illinois. From that place, he has written to his friends, giving an account of the prospective advantages of the pla..e front the richness of the soil, tLe salubrity of the climate, and the cheapness of living, but he justly abhors and con dems the continuation of slavery in the United States, which ought to keep every liberal man from its shores; and he does not, in. our mind, lay sufficient stress on the privations which a person accustomed to the comforts of England must endure. He can have no recourse to medical aid in case of malady—nu intellectual enjoyment, for he says there are no books; anti if they could by their industry produce in time a surplus of corn, they have no market nearer than a 'aundred of miles. Tilt NATIONAL REGISTER. TO THE EDITOR. have been much surprised at seeing a letter in your paper lately, complaining of the sentence against Cathie, and 111116 more so at seeing it signed " A Citristiati." I am sure of this, that the eenttnce is what every real Christian ern respondent seems to call it merely a difference in religious opinions that Carlile was prosecuted forgets that he attempted by the circulation of horrid plumy to destroy all iteligion,and persuade mankind that the Holy Scriptures were all a fable—this is certain)) something suture titan a mere difference in religious opinion, and the sentence pronounced and executed upon die unhappy wretch certainly stamps a dignity anti value upon the laws of this country. 1 am,Sir, Yours respectftaily, A Constant Reader.
