curiosity visible in the mans countenance,
excited his suspicious; but considering,
that, lfhe had bad design towards him, it
was impossible to escape, he followed him with
trembling steps. His fears were not of long
duration; he soon perceived the farm which
the peasant had mentioned and as they
entered it, the man, who was the proprietor
OF it, told his wife to kill capon, with some
OF the finest chickens in the poultry ward,
and to welcome his guest with the best
cheer.
While supper was preparing, the country
man re-entered, followed by eight children.

features OF the speaker-and recognized
the thief whose escape he had favored. The
whole family loaded him with caresses and
kindness and, when he was alone with the
man, he inquired how he came to be so well
provided for. kept my word with you,
said the thief; and resolving to lead good
life in future, begged my way hither,-
which is my native country, and engaged in
the service Of the master of this farm. Gain

preserved. He would not accept Of any
thing as recompense but could not re-
fuse to stay some days with the countryman,
who treated him like prince. This good
man then obliged him to make use of one of
his horses to finish his journey, and never
quilted him till he had travelled the dan
gerous roads that abound in those parts.

richest portion oftile Province. The situ-
alton and prospects Of the Brazilian army,
was very dlscouraging. Brazil could do
nothing against Bucnos Ayres without the
aid OF Rio Grande, and the people of that
province were universally opposed to the
war, and when forced to tske up arms, de.
serted at every opportunity. The Brazil.
ian army was principally composed OF
blacks andmulattos Of the lowest order. un
able to endure the seventies ofthc climate:
whilst the Buenos Ayreans were hardy
men, accustomed to faiigues and pr,a,ons.
The Bucnos Ayreans had large portion
Of cavalry in which the Brazlians were
very deficient. This rendered the situa-
tioD of the latter dangerous in an open
country, where they could not pursue an
enemy even if vanquished, and it was be.
lleSed battle would create disunion and
the loss OF the province. The head quar-
tsrs Of Gen. Lecor were about thirty
leagues from Rio Grande.

The Richmond Wing, one of The most able
papers in supporting the present government,
appears to consider the separation Of the south
as a measure already resolved upon, in the c
vent of Mr. Adams reelection. Andrew Ste
yenson aud Senator Rowan have expressed
this opinion. A Judge of the General Court
Of Virginia has declared that if "Alr Adams
was not put cut by the voice Of the people, he
was willing to put him out by force" These
things, say the editors of the Wing, added to
The treacherous projects l,rst winter at Wash.
ington, satisfy us that there is an organised
design TO dismember the union" The editor
Of the n. Y Advertiser echos the sont imcnts
Of the Whg. and declares his beliefthat moth
lug but the success Of Gen. jackson can pre-
vent the iultlm-nt ofthis alarming prediction.
For ourselves, we consider these apprehen-
sons to be groundless, and we are sorry that
men in whose better judgment we arc gene
rally disposed to 0cquiesce, should believe
the re e-eectlon Of Mr. Adams. The people OF
tho north sincerely Wish that the bond by
which these States are now held toe ether, may
never be broken. But ifthcre are fiery spirits
at the south, who are determined to raise the
standard of rebeiiioR, the peril the fatal con.
sequences. will be upon them, aud upon their
descendants! Let the freomen CT the north
do their dnty-let them learlcasly support the
man of their choce-and if civil war must
come, they have valor for their defence, and
industry for their support. Again and again
We avow our firm conviction that there is still
too much of the feelings of the olden time re-
naming, for the honest and patriotic, in any
portion ofou country, to wish the dismeniber-
ment of the Union.
