This arrangement was necessarily attended with

NEWSPAPER THIEVES !

knowledge Of the owDer.) this very paper. Should
this sheet fall into the hands of any such persons,
we recommend the following paragraphs TO their
particular attention.
a Newspaper Thief Detected.- Charles Fisher,
has been detected at Boston in stealing newspaper
from the door of Messrs Farnsworh & Phipps.-
He ordered to pay fine of dollar and costs
OF prosecution. and if not complied with in "a hours,
to suffer ten days confinement at hard labor in the
house of correction. He was committed 10 prison
for the want of means to comply with the sentence
This is the second instance in which vagabonds have
been detected al thets Of this kind within few days
The New York Daily Advertiser acds:--
"The stealing of newspapers from the doors of
subscribers in this city is also daily occurrence.
We have suffered severely from this species OF
theft and have frequently offered a reward for the
detection of one Of these dtpredators."
We regret that we have reason to add (says the
Baltimore Cazete.) there is much for similar
complaints in Baltimore, and that some persons who
are considered respectable. SO far forget their duty
to their eigbbors take from the doors OF sub
sc ribers the newspapers left for them. We do not
here call it stealing they do in Boston and New
York. but il has precisely the same Injurious effect
to the printer, his carriers and his subscrbers-or
the subscriber is deprived of his property, the car
rier is charged un]nsty with neglect and the prin
ter is compelled to furnish another paper to supply
the deficiency.

To the attainment Of this object, nature has pese-
ted many obstacles but the money and labor neces
sary to surmount them have been counted as moth
ing compared with the lasting benefit which the en-
Joyment OF the trade would secure TO her people 1t
was under such feelings and with such views that
the Union Canal of Pennsylvania, and the Chesa
peake and Deta,rare Canal were commenced the
first intended to intercept the descending trade at
point above the principal rapids, and more parlicu-
larly to furnish safe and easy channel for the trans
portatlon of the return supplies from Philadelphia
The second to attract TO the city the produce
which descends to tide water, a, Port Deposit, this
last point being distant only thirty miles from the
western termination of the latter canal.
Notwithstanding that the state of Maryland, by the
act OF Its late legislature, has literally offered the
sum OF half million of dollars to aid in the forma
ton of canal from York Haven to Baltimore, and
although The Official sanction Of Pennsylvania has
been given to the proposed work,-yet We regret to
add that no further measures have yet been taken
to prosecute il. How much longer this important
work may be delayed, we know not; but we trus,
that 1t It is to be undertaken at ALL it may be
menced while our exertions will yet avail

elect and upon the choice of those the majority of MIR
Adams in the Senate will depend. Of course, nothing will
be left undone untred bring Delaware the side Of
the administration. We cannot surmse what the result
will be, not having sufficient local information
The above paragraph is from the New York Ma.
tional Advocate, paper edited by M. NJ. Noah,
who was one Of the 6rmest supporters Of Mr. Craw
lord during the late presidential election For the
Information of Mr.. Noah, remark, that no forts
necessary to "bring Delaware on the side OF the
administration !" She is already on that side, and
will give her utmost support to the present cabinet
and its measures. The most influential of those oil
her citizens who opposed Mr.. Adams, have been
convinced, by he measures he has pursued since
his election to the presidency, that their opposition
10 him was founded in erroneous opinions Of his
character which, since his elevation to his present
exalted rank, has shed additional lustre on his coun
nv, and compelled his opponents to acknowledge
that they cannot find any thing against him. We
have sufficient ground to upon, when we assert
that if Mr.. Adams should be a candidate for re
election, he will receive the firm and undivided sup
port OF ~ this little State''

Of the feelings and sentiments OF the people OF

element prevails, except in the breasts of few
mad-caps, who are rapidly thinning the ranks
of the respectable party opposed to Mr.. Adams
before his election, by the disgust which they
create. We venture 10 assert, & we have good
grounds for the assertion, that Virginia Is dali
ly becoming more and more disposed to Judge
the administration by its acts, and should the
same wisdom which has thus far marked its
course continue TO be exercised, there is little

only opposing candidate, MIR. Adams will OBJ
