AARON RIToR


Rumors, OF which the name of Aaron
Burr IS made the vehicle, actually swarm
around US; many of them of such a com
piexlon that it might be criminal either TO
treat them with Indifference, or to receive
them as absolutely true. Under such cir
cumstances 1t is our duty to record them.
They will inculcatc vigilance and the pro-
prlcty OF state OF preparation for anv G.
vents which mag occur. Let il not be ina
g;ncd that we have any doubts of the virtue
and patriotism of the Western States, or
apprehensions of any vaccinations to Sc
parate them from the Union. On the
contrary we believe their affection to the
union and the administration un1ounded.
Notwithstanding, there NAV be men among
them who are deluded by their ambitious
views and who may form the most unpro-
missing projects.
1t Is affirmed as an unequivocal fact that
contract has been entered into with Com
fort Tyler for furnishing, ON the waters of
Ohio. about the beginning of October, pro-
visions to the amount of rty-thousand dol
lars at the Mghest market hrices. This is
vouchcd by creditable men, who declare
they have the information from those who
have seen the contract. The fact is like
wise corroborated by several persons to
whom offers of purchase were made, but
who declined entirely from the mysterious
appearance Of the business. 1t is affirmed
as undeniable, that during the last winter
Mr.. Barr offered general Eaton commits
sion, which the latter rejected in coasc-
1uence Of which the latter gentleman, at
an entertainment at which Mr. Burr was
present, gave a toast to this effects Nav
