STATE OF THE COUNTRY.—Such is the
real or affected panic of several of our county gentry, that they
come into town armed with pistols, some carrying them in
their pockets, others openly slung from cross belts. One gen.
tleman, who, though living on the borders of the Nore, will
not be accused as an incendiary, should it ever be feloniously
set fire to, adds the protection of a mounted policemen to that
of his own pistols, though we should suppose those latter quite
country's
sufficient, as a dozen years have elapsed since we first knew
him to spend his time indefatigably shooting ball at a wafer.
If those good folk would form associations of their tenantry, to

disturbers
theirof the publicntry peace, we apprehend it
service and their own
credit, than to have them going about the country, bravo like.
It may be worthy of remark that the same gentlemen who carry
pistols coming into the city do not fear to spend twa or three ,
days each week hunting through the country, and totally • on-
