scope Of the resolution. Ifa substantial
road were made in this direction to New
Orleans, the mail could be transported
to that place, in eleven days. Ii the
road were to pass through the capitals
OF Virginia, North Carolina. and Gre or
gis, it could be conveyed in less than
twelve days.
The route on which the mail is now
transported to New-0rleans, although
more circutious than some others. in the
present condition Of the roads, is the
safest and best. There are many oh
structions on il, but they are less nu-
merous than on any other. Greater
CELEBRITY and safety are given to the mail
on this route, than could be given TO it
on any other, TO New-Orleans, and it
passes through, and supplies, many i'm :
portant towns and villages, and thickly
settled of the country.
In the winter and spring Sc asons of
the yeas, the mail on this rout, as on all
others in the same parts of the country,
is sometimes entirely obstructed by high
waters; and. when this is not the case,
it is frequently much injured by the mail
horses swimming creeks and through
swamps of considerable extent. The
friction from the movement of the mail
horses, is certain TO destroy all newspa-
perS that become wet, and not unfre-
Quently, letters are much oblterated
When the mail is a considerable time i'm
mersed in water. as has oltea been the
case ON this rout, il is impossible to Sc
cure perfectly from injury.
The department now pays at the rate
OF fifty-two dollars and seventy six cents
a mile.for the transportation OF the mails,
three trip in each week, TO New-Orleans.
On good turnpike road, it could be con
veyed IN stage as olten,and in less than
halt the time, at the same expense. And
what is most important consideration,
the utmost security would be given to
the mail by such transportation, and
a very considerable increase to tie re-
ceipts OF the department.

BY the ladies' of the place, The fire ex-

the Doctors dwelling. was reduced to
ashes, with much oil the furniture, SC.

building, Mr.. Groves store, and several
other building were on fire during the
confiagration: but through the great ex-
er'ions and vigilance of the citizens,

his all. The fire ragged about four hours.
A very liberal subscription has already
been raised in the place in aid OF the suf-

many propositions OF great Importance

This is intended as an auxiliary mea

pected, as the house stands on this sub
Ject, about so for breaking. and 40
opposed to it, This was about the
strength of the Judge breakers last
year notwithstanding their boaSted
gain at the late election. The subject

some additional remarks on the result
of the late election, and on decision
OF the Appellate Court made since the
session. The preamble will be noticed
and published hereafter. A bill has
passed both branches. granting a
