Our Corn Trade continues very heavy at Mon-

more freedom.—Flour is uncommonly dull of Cale,
and the Grafs Seed Trade is generally a trifle
lower.

TO THE EDITOR.

Ste—With refpet to the Alarming (late of the
emigration from Scotland, I have it from a gen-
tleman of repute, arrived from the ‘Vellern part
of Scotland, within the laft fix weeks, " that the
inhabitants of Glengary, to a man," (that was the
expreflion) " have emigrated ; and that at the time
of his departure no left than fixteen (hips were ly-
ing at the ports of Glafgow, Fort William, and
Dundee, taking in the exiles." The circumftance
which produced this ere& is this :—ln that, per
haps, more unfortunate part of the kingdom, the
fyflem of confolidating and converting farms into
pafture for (beep, is adopted on the moll extenfive
kale. The proprietor of Glengary fell into this
fnare, and finding himfelf deferred. be offered
hetter terms, but it was then too late. Sir (nor:
SINCLAIR has, within the laft two years, betides
railing his rental a thir.l, confolidated the whole
came of Langwell, a new purchafe, confilling of
thirty.fix Farms, into one Farm. This track of
land fupported about twelve hundred individuals,
but is now configned to the maintenance of eight
thotifand (peep. In other difirias called Ernfter,
Stenlan, Wydal, Sordal, Walkirk, and Sibfler, he
has confolidated forty-eight Farms into fifteen.
By thefe meafurei above four hundred indivi-
duals mull have been deprived of their means of
fubfillence. That they (hoold emigrate, therefore,
is not only a thing to be expefted, but a thing that
I mull be juftified, while freedom to preferve life
and health continues to be the legal right of man.
That emigration, however, is injurious to the na-
tion, while numbers and labour connitute its
wealth and ftrength, is equally clear ; but to whom
does the blame attach ? Is it to chore who pro-
vide for fuch emigrants in a foreign land, or to
thofe who, by fuch meafures, make emigration

We have received newfpapers from Charlettown,
South Carolina, to the r 4th of January.
By letters of the lath of December, information
was received at Charleßown, from Demerara and
Effequibo, that, fine the ceffion of thofe fettle-
ments to the Dutch, on the ad of December, the
Anglo American traders had met vexations and
feverities from the new Governor, which they felt
to be exceedingly unjuft and oppreffive. Imme.
diately after the Dutch took poffefficn of the let.
dements, the trade with the United States was put
on the fame footing as before the year 5793 ; or,
in other words, it was forbidden, that any produce
of Demerara or Effequibn, fhould be exported to
the ports of the United States, otherwife than in
Dutch bottoms. Not fatisfied with impatiently
renewing this regulation, the Dutch Governor
obliged thcfe Anglo American Captains who had
taken in their cargoes while the Britiflt flag was
Rill flying, but bad not then failed, to reland the
cargoes, and fail without freight. The injoßice
of this left aft excited great indignation at C.harlef.
