James Sega, l.. l.. D., from the unive rsity

essay on duelling. The favorable receptiop
OF that publication has induced him 10 pre-.
pare larger work, which he proposes to
publish by subscription. The title is as fol,

and other crimes, for which society should be
deemed accountable; and without -resorting

DIT, IL Tl--N Il
Daily Advertiser states, that, q master Of a
vessel bound from England to this country,
was applied TO by individuals representing no
less than FIVE different parishes, to take their
paupers as passengers. From this and other
evidences, there can be little doubt that this
mode has been deliberately adopted as the
most effectual one of getting rid of burden
some population, the parishes finding il moro
economical to advance at once the expenses
OF the passage TO the Unitad States, than to
be at the charge Of their continued support
at home.
The editor of the Richmond Wing,
John II. PLeasants, insists that the din
ners given to Mr.. Clay, and the atten-
tions bestowed upon him by "laboring
classes" in Ohio, have maddened the
Heroicals." And he assigns reason
for this In the hourishing terms which
follow. "They know that their innu-
merable frauds upon popular ignorance
evaporate before his Tremendous elocu-
ton, like mists before the rising SUM-"
This might be regarded as valuable
compliment, if the relative position of
the parties was not so peculiar. But
much Of its value evaporates," when
it is recollected that Mr.. Clay paid this
patriotic eulogist nineteen hundred dol
lars for carrying dispatches to Buenos
Ayres, when in truth he sent them by
the captain of the vessel, while he
made pilgrimage to the father land"
When Mr.. Peasants speaks of Trea-
sury Sucker" we are constrained to be-
lleve that he has been looking over his
correspondence with MIR. Clay, and de-
signs 10 give us his own portrait.
But the following ejaculation Of i'm
pious hummery, caps the climax;
"We only wish that the American
People could be condensed into one au-
dience, to hear the words of political
salvation from the man whom we be-
lieve heaven has vouchsafed for the
preservation of Public Liberty, or that
Henry Clay could traverse every town,
village and county of the United
States
This is a second edition of "war,
pestilence, and famine" And MIR.
Peasants who abandoned his despatch
es, because he could not be crowded
into cabin with "obstreperous filthy
me chances" is now aoorking man, and
wishes to see "the American People
condensed into one audience!" and to
behold their Ignorance corporate be-
fore Mr.. Clay's tremendous elocution."-
