s New.York have now been received, by
which it appears that in the house of re.
presentatiVes the democrats have chosen
81 members and the federalists 5l-ma.

by no means despair of a correct MAORI.
~ BY the time they viii meet. Prodi-
sious changes are every day taking place
m the sentiments Of the people in every
part of the country.
The legislature of Georgia is now in
session, having been convened by the
government with atview to afford some
relief to the debtors at present distress
ed by the operation, of the embargo
The governor Of the state has informed
the Legislature that q deputation has been
sent BY the Greek nation Of Indians, to
assure him of the unanimous determine
ton of the Creeks to defend the state Of
Georgia with all their strength, in case
Of a rupture with any foreign power: 1t
is also said that they have sent deputa.
tion to the general government to make
a tender Of their services.

copied from a Vermont paper ofthe 10th

by respectable authority we are in.
formed that since the Presidents procla.
nation, a4umber Of RATS have crossed
the line before the face Of the officers,
who, from prudential motives, winked
at this violation Of the laws Of the coun.

misto the measure, but to pursue their
usual trade in spite Of all opposition.

The Editcr ofthe New York Herald, In no.
tcuf the capture of the ship Roborcus> BY French
bat*a.eers observes, While the Federalsts feel
Ike Americans and burn to defend the homer Of
our Gag against these merciless French pirates,
Glereis another party among US, who cringe and
cry ont to us to behold another proof of the wis:
dom of the embargo and its supplements, and the
Presidents circular letter. Had only these been
duly observed, say they,s and eur vessels had alb
stained from sailing from one port in the United
States to another, we should not hear Of these
French captures. Keep perfectly at home, they
sdd, and the Milan Decree wont hurt you.
GAN this may be very good democracy, and per
hAps our fellow citizens who presume TO gussrorn
here to Charleston or Savannah, or Boston BY wa
Ter, deserve tobe thus Sc zed by the French, put
in irons, strpt and robbed, and set on shore on
some desert island to perish but it seems really
to be stretching a point Of esmplaisance to Mon
sieur, after being thus robbed and plundered, to
give him aid in our ports, to reft his vessel for
him, and to load him with provisions and dollars.
\ "We have this moment heard that French pri-
vateer is cruising off the mouth Of the harbour on
the look out for American vessels.-We hope,
however, they wont take Mr.. Paine's hint and
land and scoIr our streets, and trim the mer-
chants jackets"

BY the solemn attestations of this fact
from men o. the highest profe ssional re-

disinterested motives, after strict inves-
tig.,ion, patient remark, aud ample ex-
perienee, you are called upon, BY these

who had undergone the operation at the

in 1909 amounted to 17l71, making in
those two years an. aggregate of Ss24s
w. Miller, Esq. Of Calcutta, relates in
his letter on the subject dated in June,
1907. that the native Inoeulators per-
form the duty assigned to them with as
siduity. Only Ave cases of a suspicious
nature have occurred. I allude to the
idea entertained ofthe Vaccine Iuocnla-
ton having taken place and the small
pox having afterwards affected the pa.
tient. These Ave have evidently never
been vaceiuated, as a regular account of
the place and residence Of the persons
inoculated, is kept on register, and on
reference 70 this register, the names of
the persons wereh net to be found. Add
ed to-whieh there was no mark Of infec.

daily decreasing, and number Of. their
most noble families, have received the
Cox.pox. ! The numbers which have
undergone this -salatary operation in
Madras, are almost linaasdible, being
yearly 10000 in year.
