BANKRUPT LAW.

BANKRUPT LAW.
The necessity of uniform system Of
Bankruptcy. was never more evident than at
the present moment. Here congress are not
provided with that apology that they usual
ly claim, for not doing their duty, that they
have no constitutional power to pass such a
law. And will it be said, that no such law
is called for by the circumstances of tine
country! Never was there time in which
there was such universally of distress as at
the present. Let man but cast hi. eyes
over the columns of our public papers, and
see what crowds of unfortunate men have
become insolvent. These laws operate no
further for the protection of the unfortunate
man, than the boundaries of the state in
which he is at that time an inhabitant. He
is a prisoner, and enjoys only to that extent,
the liberty of the prison bounds. II he ven.
lures to pass into another jurisdiction, be
becomes responsible for bis old debts, and
his discharge under the act Of insolvency a.
walls him nothing. However Aattering may
be his hopss or his prospects abroad, he is
completely incarcerated within the confines
of the state where he obtains the act of in.
solvency. But this is not the only evil ::
twenty -two states now compose the Ameri-
can confederation, with perhaps twenty-five
different local systems of insolvency. A man
who loans his property, has in fact no other
security for its payment, than the personal
honor of his debtor. The law affords him no
security, for man disposed to play the
knave, has perhaps twenty-five different sys.
tens ofinsolvency before him, by any one of
which he may be sxonerated from the pay.
nent of his debts.

A friend tsays the Connecticut Mirror) has
put into our hands. pamphlet which has
iust reached this country from London, enti-
tled--" Memoir addressed to persons of the
Jewish religion in Europe, on the subject OF
emigration to, and settlement in, one of the
most elegible parts of the United States OF
North America This pamphlet gives con-
else view of the present situation OF Jews in
Europe; the prosecutions which they have
endured Tor many ages; the inconvenience
which they are iated to suffer in all despotic
countries; and strongly recommends them
10 leave the theatre OF their complicated sor-
rows, and emigrate TO this land Of happiness
and freedom. II appears to have been elici-
led by the late extraordinary and simuta-
seous persecution of the Jews in several
parts of the European continent, and also in
Turkey" and on this account i, certainly
well timed. The plan suggested, is the Or
ganization Of a company of wealthy and res.
pectable Jews, who are to subscribe fund,
TO as large an amount as may be practicable,
and purchase tract of land in the United
States, adequate to the object in view. The
upper Mississippi and Missouri country is re-
commended for its soil. climate and situation,
as the most suitable place Tor purchase and
settlement. The project has much of plau-
sibility and we cannot perceive why it may
not be carried into execution, TO the almost
infinite advantage and comfort of that unfor-
tunate race of our fellow beings.
