place an America more finely situated. All
that is wanting is importing capital to bring the
merchants of Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama,
Mississippi, &C. TO this place to lay in their dry
goods, and if this should be the case, the grca-
ter part OF the produce of those countries will
find ITS way here likewise. 1t is impossible to
iino a more delightful situation than this place.
and the most desirable tracts of land NAV be
selected every where round the bay, for coun-
Try seats, and even for the purpose of extern

Dia, the elbow water, and the Choctawhatchy,
there are large bodies of fine land, whose pro-
duce must necessarily come here for a market.

UNFORTUNATE HARVEST.
fINcAsTLE, (Va) July l6.-From every section of
couhtiy,we hear complaints of ruined harvest, in
consequence of the rain ihn has fallen. 1t was NOT
only the quantity which fell but the long time il was
iaing, that proved calamitous. Nearly all of that
wiica was cut was entirely lost and even that which
was standing, Ind commenced sproutns The far

lately published in the National Gazette. we
lndihe following remarkable passage:
Oar government, TO prevent, as they ho-
ped, the utter ruin of the agriculturists, had in
the year 1871 recourse to a Uc'y Grbttrai3i meg
sure. The King issued a decree called The in

prietor Should be sued for interest and capital

and will be sold.hy public auction as the oc-

Such, we PAINFULLY apprehend, must be, in
this country, as in Prussia, the inevitable ca
lastrophe of the series of disastrous measures
which have followed each other, in quick sue
