ing the history of ancient times. Per-
haps in some distant age, great empire
was founded on the banks of this greater
Nile. On these fertile plains, some
Memphis moro splendid than the Egyp-
tan city, may have reared its splendid
domes and lofty palaces. This was per-
haps the site of the capital of nation
great in arts and in arms. The mind is
lost in conjecture of the past, and equally
SO in anticipation. From Les MamelZe8
you observe in front of you at short
distance where the Mississippi rolls along
in silent majesty. Beyond it chain of
rocks, which are interrupted by the Hi
nois, which empties itself at this place
into the Mississippi. To the right, the
we'll known village ofPortage de8 Siour,
almost connecting the Mississippi and
Missouri, is just discernible, although
obscured by the intervening trees. On
the other side flows the Dardene and
empties herself into the Mississippi
her banks shaded with trees. The eye
never beheld in one view SO elegant
landscape, and in which anticipation
could indulge so wide scope. But
few years, and this vast tract will be
covered with farm houses, and fields

Post gives the following as the political
results of the late general election i'll
that state. In the house ofrepresenta-
tivcs, republicans 43, federalists 43,
Clintonians" 34.
"It is proper, however, to observe,
that the federalists elected IN the coun-
ties of Schoharie, Cayuga, and Gene
see. were elected in coalition with Gin
tonians, and, perhaps, may therefore be
set down as such. The federalist elect
ed in Schenectady, may, for similar
reason, be given to the republican party.
The result would then be---so republi-
cans, 50 fcderalists, and 81 Clintonians.
The senate consists of l9 republicans,
u Climonians, and federalist.--The
whole number of republicans in both
houses is therefore SO, of federalists 40,
and of Clintonians 40; and the rcpubli-
can majority over the Clintonians 90"
The whole number of members in the
house of assembly is 1876.

Happiness, and future prosperity Of this
fair and growing country.
/. 2. That slavery is contrary to the term
freedom, and It is also contrary to the
laws of nature, that one nation, or one
individual should be compelled to serve
another unjustly.
s. That it is one of the greatest evils
we have to regret at this present day in
the United States, and if not protested
against in this growing country, it will
eventually end in an entailed hereditary
misery on our future posterity, and bring
upon US their just censure, as well as the
Judgment of just, but angry God.
q. That we recommend to the people
of the different counties in this territory,
to hold public meetings, and deliberate

curse of the further admittance of in

has the right of suffrage.

Wash nothing more was intended or ex-
pected than his willing confirmation of
the statement of the amount of notes
redeemed, and specie on hand, which
was deemed all-sufficient to remove the
doubts expressed by the editor of the
Enquirer.
That the statement of the 5th inst. was
not intended as an expose of the general
situation of the bank, as the editor of the
Enquirer affects to consider it, is proved
by previous statement in the Spectator,
to which it refers, showing an amount of
resources beyond the specie in its vaults,
which entirely destroys both his premi-
ses and his conclusions relative to the
" insolvency of the bank - and also by
the offer to go hari haSSu with his fa-
vorite, the Bank of Missouri, in submit
ting to any further scrutiny or investiga-
ton. If, however, he did suppose that
the bank had no other money than the
specie eported-sufiice it to say that he
was very much mistaken. If he did not
suppose so, was it liberal, or correct, to
pervert the statement, and endeavor to
make an erroneous impression upon the
public mind, to the injury of an institu-
ton that has never done any thing to pro-
woke this hostility } Could he suppose that
there were no good debts due to it to
helo save it from insolvency? Or did he
believe that either the public deposits
or the money of the bank had been given
out without any security for its return
If the Bank of Missouri, at any time be-
fore the late arrival of specie, which it
had drawn from Kentucky, Shawance-
town, and this place, had published
statement only of its notes redeemed,
specie on hand, and notes in circulation,
could not the editor of the Enquirer, with
equal facility, have proved the institution
+" insolvent 7" or, with equal propriety,
have asked whether thad not been using
the public money; or, " demand 7vhat
had become Of the land office dcho8its ?"
Does he believe that that bank never loans
any of the public money! Or does he
contend that it ought to have privilege
of doing SO, that should be denied to all
other institutions in the like situation
And if the public deposits were sudden
ly Withdrawn from it, does he believe that
it would experience no shock, and that
an additional spring would not be given
to the ten per cent a month loans, noticed
in his paper? Let him reflect on the
amount of its capital stock, and the
amount Of loan to one man only. But
for the present we forbear to say more
upon the subject, not wishing to engage
further in the discussion, unless it should
be rendered necessary by the continual
ton of unprovoked hostility; in which
case, it is probable it may be rendered
fully as disagreeable to others as to the
bank Of this place, which would prefer,
if left to its own choice, to be On friendly
terms with both the Bank of Missouri
and the editor of the Enquirer, asking
no favor of either, but forbearance to
denounce it, till its own conduct, and not
vague surmises, shall justify its denun-
citation.

To the Citizens Of Madison County.
FELLOwCITtzESs,
VGVHERE has been in circulation among us
IL Tor some time, report charging Mr
GEORGE BAnNsBAcK, with fraudulent and dis
honorable conduct in certain transactions VII.
Mr.. GEoRGE KINDER. These charges are in
substance as follows, viz THAT the said KIN
der, having confidence in Barnsback, did en-
trust him with money to enter Il quarter sec
ton of land, in which Kinder had the right %
prescriptions; that the land was to be enlerci
i'll both their names; but that Barnsback for
feited the confidence reposed in him, and ci-
tered the land in his own name, and made use
of kinder's money for that purpose. We, tho
undersigned, being chosen by the persons
above named, for the special purpose of exa
mining into the foundation of these charges,
declare, that from the acknowledgements O.
Capt. Kinder, as well as other testimony. W,
believe this report to be, in point of fact, false
and that it must either be malicious talsehood,
or have originated in mistake. This publica-
ton we think due to Mr.. Barnsback, both as .
respectable private citizen, and as holding AL
important office in our county.

a need be said respecting its character; but

found in many public libraries number OF
copies are regularly transmitted to Europe,
Soutll-America and the Nest-ind'es.
The public documents contained in this
work would cost, if purchased separately,
more than twice the amount that is demanded
for II per annIlm but so much other matter is
rot into it that the documents, perhaps, dc not
generally occupy a third part Of a Voiume. 1t
is a history of men and Ii ngs, and the most
extensive book OF rrfere nee ever published in
any country-useful as to the past, and agree
able and interestngfor the present and future.
