We regret to learn, that the Red ri-
yer has recently been six or seven feet
higher than il has before been within
the recollection of the Oldest inhabitants
Of that part of the country. A great
quantity of stock has been drowned,
and large portion of the plantations in
its neighborhoo4 have been inundated
some OF them 20 such an extent as to
destroy all prospect of making crop
this season, and the principal part Of
them are so injured, that scarcely half
crop will be made. The large and
flonrishing settlement in Long Praire,
has been seriously affected. and several
families have been compelled to remove
out to the pine bills The planters living
in Louisiana, on Red river, have also,
sustained much damage, in their crops,

the company that there was one man to
whom the country was indebted more

of having in his possession a plate for
printing counterfeit notes, initiative of
those of the Reading Bank. Moses had

ty and sentenced to three years addition

pay fine OF FIVE hundred dollars.
Moses was once of company who
made and supplied regular customers
with counterfeit notes, upon the follow
ing terms: for bundle of one hundred
thousand dollars, they received six hun

successful. four hundred more were paid
