 We learn from a Philadelphia Gazette that Capt. Synnes has been for some time detained at Trenton, N. J. by severe illness. Pecuniary aid is solicited through the medium of Wm l.. Pratt, Esq. editor of the Trenton True American, to enable him to reach his residence in Ohio.

We doubt not they will exercise their
 beray on this occasion. The captain has been beating the bush' in various parts of the country but present appearances indicate that his sagacious pupil, Mir. Reynolds, will finally "catch the bird."
