vocate, printed al New York, 6 hat there

male who is no less parsonage than a
grand DAUGHTER of George Sd,--a neice of
the Prince regent and a natural daughter of
Prince Edward, &C." i he object of this
statement whether true or false aop, rs 10
be TO fix ST ma on the conduct and CHI 3
acters of Legitimate princes as our de-
mocra;ic brethren sneeringly call them.
We have no interest in defending the irreg.
ular conduct Of any Of the Royal family of
George 8 but we mustinfosm these gen.
tleinen that loose conduct of the stamp a.
bove alluded to, is not peculiar to "legiti-
maze princes J" even P ilosophical charac-
tiers have sometimes fallen into the same
crinc.-- There was few years since living
In certain kitchen in vi glnia, a young
Prince of the American line, who, ifnow
living, would make very suitable husband
for the State Prison Princess. And, we
think, tha, since We have treaty of amity
and Commerce With England, the moment
is suspicious for uniting these Two vagrant

wish to form small but able Company,

present moment to be peculiarly favor
bale fer its operations.
The Seats for such Works have been
viewed by practical men & pronounced
good-the ore banks are conveniently
situated, and the ore abundant, easily
raised, and rich; yielding iron of very
superior quality, as appears from the tes-
timony of those who have made and
wrought it;-there are several favorable
scites;-the command of water is power
ful;-and the wood on twenty thousand
acres of land GALL of one trac:> is abunf
dant and convenicnt.-There are few
any such Iron estates in America: and
his is peculiarly favorable in situation
to the seat of government, where sup
ply of Iron of the best quality is always
in demand, and where it must be h'gh
