The late attempt to raise the Price of Corn by
a combination among the Hoarders, was frustrated
chiefly by the laudable zeal of a Baker named FOK-
T &9C UE. Such a. man ought to be held forth to the
esteem of his Countrymen, and we deem it a:duty,
to give his name to the Public. The example of
this true. Patriot and Friend to Humanity will, we
hope, be followed by many other's, if any more such
iniquitOus schemes should be attempted.

They. remained •together during the whole week,
and conduled themselves in a Ltiatner very highly
to the public satisfaction.
