OF which stands New-Madrid.
The commissioners represent the
lands on the Tennessee river and on the
state line to be generally of a good quail
~, and capable of supporting large
population.--The Tennessee is beau
tiful stream having suf1iciency of wa
ter for navigation through this state du-
ring the whole season. The lands on
the Mississippi are likewise good; but,
with the exception of few bluffs, sub
ject to inundation from which they can
never be redeemed. The lands on the
Ohio are of a similar quality and sub
ject to the like misfortune.
1t is 70 miles on the state line from
the Tennessee river to the Mississippi
The whole tract of land acquired from
the Indians is of sufficient size and fer
tility to constitute four respectable coun-
ties. a considerable number of squat
tiers have already located themselves on
some parts of it.
Let the next legislature take care that
this important section of the state may
not be lost to us, by the manner in which
it Shall be sold. Funds ought to be de-
rived from this source adequate to the
education of many poor child who will
otherwise grope in profound ignorance.

60 the PEOPLE Of the State Of Illinois.
Much has of late been said on the
subject of slavery. The practice of
holding slaves is generally condemned.
All admit that it is anti-republican, and
yet it exists among us.
NV object will not be to explain why
or wherefore slavery was introduced into
the United States nor to point out the
consequences of ii either in violation of
morality or as to its political influence.
But shall endeavor to point out sure
and an effectual course to abolish it al
together from this state and ultimately
from the United States.
Setting aside the right, which the
practice Of holding slaves would seem
to imply, that one human being has to
hold another in servitude, merely be-
cause they differ in complexion--will it
be contended by any man that benefit
is derived either to a state as such, or to
the United States, by means Of slaves?

Political federation in Missouri.
The following toasts drank at 4th of
July dinner, in Marthasville, Montgome-
ry county, IN t y show, in some de-
gree, the manner in which many of the
citizens of Missouri view the late decis-
ion of congress against the further intro.
duction of slavery into that territory.
".Hess,s Tdllmadge and Politically
insane-May the next congress appoint them
a dark room, straight Taistcoat, and thin
water cruel diet.
".Messrs. Sharv and Holmes--Two Yankee
republicans they deserve well of their coun-
try may they reform the apostate politicians
Of the north.
" The Sovereignty Of the States-May seven
ty-eight men, inimical to it, clothed with the
authority of the people, never meet again in
Congress Hail."
We cannot avoid remarking that we
deeply regret to find this scion of our
confederation manifest, at 81 early stage
of its political existence, buch an avari-
cious determination, in demanding the
aid of slave labor to till its fields. A
spirited writer in the Edvardsville Glli-
noisy Spectator, has takel an impartial
view Of this subject; and provoked, in
reply, these expressions from the St.
Louis Enquirer of July " -
"The injury done to the character of the
county, by the affect and slanish doctrines at
tributed to its citizens, no doubt contributed
to produce this unanimous presentment ON the
part ofthe grand jury" (of St Charles county
We think the beginning of this SEN
tence would be nearer the truth, if its
import was altered thus -
"1'he injury done to the character of the
country by the affect and slarish desires of the
