we stated that we had been under the

on writing paper that applications had
been made at Redstone and at Cham

small quantity was on the wav from

it was thought best to suspend the pub

and fondly hopes, that from the manner
In which the sensibility of all must be
excited on the occasion which has given
rise to the Presidents proclamation of
the second inst. and his call for part of
the militia, and from the well known re-
gard which every brave man has to dis
charge that duty which he owes to his
country, he will not be compelled lin or

dlsagreeable and degrading alternative
OF ordering draught in his division.
