AMERICAN PAPERS.

• (From the Satirmal Intelligenrer.]
We have immense tracts of wild and fertile land,
on which, if they (Emigrants) had assistance, they
might settle, tool instead of.being idle nuisances,
might become respectable and useful citizens.—
Intitt•ad of thronging the-streets of cities which
have already a superabundance of labourers, they
should he subduing the forests on the banks of the
Ohio, the Wabash, the Missouri, and Mississippi.
Get them he conducted west of the mountains,
and they will We boundless field for their enter-
prise. Let those who can work at agriculture
come here, and they may in a short time nod them-
selves the proprietors of rich and beautiful farms.
Weed, when we View the choicest portion of
our globe in a state of nature ; when we see the
immense tracts of excellent land which remain
wild, uncultivated, and inhabited only by wild
beesti; and at the same time think of the millions
of hungry poor who drag out a miserable existence
its the eastern hemisphere, how devoutly have we
wished that some benevolent Moses wonld lead
them to this land of promise.
Those who haVe not been bred to egricnlttire,
who cannot wield the axe anti guide, the. plough,
may also employ their, time aud skill to better ail-
vantage here than in the' Atlantic Stapes. Let the
bricklayers, the stonemesons, the bowels rights;
the tanners, the shoemakers, and meeltanies of
every description.come to Kentucky, Ohio, Ten-
nessee and Indiana, and we promise that they shall
find employment anti high wages.
Now these foreigners are ignorant of all this,
or perhaps if they know it, have not the means of
getting here. The expense of transporting theirs
over the mountains would not be great. And if
we should give them a part of our vacant lands
to settle upon, the remainder would increase in
value enough, and more titan enough, .to pay for
it., Resides, it would he a charitable, a humane
act, and would call down the blessings of Heaven
on our Republic.
In order to give effect to the scheme, let Con-
gress at their next session provide some means to
bring Atha this desirable object. If they iu their
wisdom should think it repugnant to the interests
of the nation, then let benevolent Individuals
form themselves into societies, and convert mea-
times to take them, without delay, with their fa-
milies, out of the cities into the interior, where
they will make time '4,wilderness blossom as the
rose." Those individuals who own large tracts of
wild land would find it their interest to settle co-
lonies of these people upon it by its increase of
value ; and they would have the additional sath-
fac•ion of having snatched many a hapless victim
from penury, vice, and despair.
&Lam, Auo. 13.—Arrived the ship Exeter,
Cleveland, front Batavia, June 19,1withiii it few
miles of St. Helena, was boarded by his itlaiestv's
brig Jtilia, and treated with civility, They atreted
to supply us with water, but would not permit us
to anchor. The boarding officer informed
that the Emperor was in good health and lived
very contentedly. -
NIMBVIIGH (N. Y.), Auc. cut fish was
taken' by a trot line, opposite Cinettinitti;'oliirr,
Monday last, the dimensions of which, by ac-
tual admeasurement, sere five feet Anti a half in
length, four feet girth, twelve inches between the
eyes, and nineteen across the breast ; weight one
hundred and seventeen pounds !. Such .was the
power of this fish, that the men who-took him
were obliged to shoot him, in order to get him on
shore.

We are very credibly informed that some cir-
cumstances have transpired which leaves no doubt
that the late fire at Belvoir Castle, the hospitable
mansion oldie Duke of Rust AND, WAS occasion-
ed by the act of sonic incendiaries, for the object
of rapine and plunder. Sonic suspicious charac-
ters assembled at the Be!yoir inn, at the bottom
of the Castle-bill, on the two days previous to the
lamentable conflagration. The pnblic have been
giten tat understand that the whole of the plate
was saved j hut such is not the case. Jr is now
ascertained that the communion plate from the
Chapel is missing, and no remnants of it is dia.
cernable in the ruing.— ''very day unfolds some-
thing new, and theplunder has been very extensive.
A picture has beets discovered in a 641 for front
the house. We trust the villaito will be disco-
veted.--(Morning Paper.)
