- GOOD NEWS
We havcit III our power to state, on the
most undonDted authority, that very liberal
measures have been taken to bring corn
from the Western into the Atlantic states,
by the way of New Orleans, in such quaint
ties as to leave us under no kind of apprehen-
sions for the scarcity of that article, bv the
frst,or middle of February next. The harv-
ests have been very abundant and heavy
throughout all that vast country, except on
the extreme upper borders. Letters to the
writerot this article, state that corn mt Chill
icothe is % cents, at Cincinnati 81, and at
the large plantations on the Ohio. but 90
cents 4 bushel iu the ear. A brig sailed
several weeks ago from Rochester to New
Orleans. which although her true destination.
was studiously concealed, was TO receive at
the latter place, ten thousand bushels Of corn,
for which a person timely sent out Ia
make the purchase and seasonable delivery of
IT. Seven thousand dollars in specie bills. was,
few weeks ago, sent from neighhourng
town, in that modern Egypt, TO effect purcla-
ses for the same purpose. Three ships also
sailed few weeks ago from Newly ork to
New-Crlears, destined To return laden with
that valuable bread stuff. And we are happy
TO state that letters have been received from
the AGENTS who have gone out TO purchase,
which bring word that they are rapidly nc.
complishing the object of their mission. This
is literally good nerS from a far country.
