As ] am unwilling to deprive an- other of the praise due to him, Tnow public ly deny that l have had any thing to do with either oft the publications nor do wish to have any thing to do with the sub- Ject in controversy.
 lhave but little expectation, that this denial will be pefaaitted to have the effect of refao~ing from the mind of the Netting Governor, the belief of my being the wri- ter of < Fourehe'--those, through whose agency and assurances, he has inlbibed that belief, have too implaeable hatred towards me, not to support their false as sertions, by the poSt solemn asseverations, rather than be foiied in the object they have in view.
 If the Netting Governor has any desire to have my views on the subject, hint to that effect through the medium of his po- laicat organ, the Gazette, shall be prompt- ly attended to, not from desire to parti- cipate in the controversy, but merely as an accommodation to him.

The readers of the Advocate are aware that two publications, signed Fourche, ; have lately appeared, in which the incon- sistency of the political course of Cover nor Pope, and Acting Governor Fulton, has been adverted to, and certain queries proposed to the Editcr of the Advocate, which have elicited from him, not an an- swer to the queries, but promise of an swering them at future opportunity.
 fouare also aware, that in consequence of the course pursued by the Editor, the Acting Governor caused a decree of the Superior Court, lat its late session for the adjudication of French and Spanish Land Glaims) which had ordered, that half the printing ofthe Orders of Publication, should be given to the Advocate, and to which de- cree, the Acting Governor had aeqaieseaa, to be reversed, and new decree made, by which all the printing was given to the Gazette.
 Many of you are also aware, that the Acting Governor, and fsoo or at most three of his political friends have declared ne to be the author ofs Fourche.' Some of my friends have eontradicted the declaration, but without effect--he places fall conf dence in his two or three political associ- ates, who have assured him that they know my style of writing too well to be deceiv- seed, and that certainly am the author.-- Such assurances, from such kfoaoiqg men, are certainly calculated to impress the

RloaCledge.-We would recommend the following extract from ( Hazue's Lee t'tfes o,a Readaag," to every young per- son who sees this:
 | The high value of mental culliva- tlon IS an other motive for giving atten- ton to reading. What is 1t that mains iy distinguishes a man, from a brute?-- haowledge. What makes the vast diff. ference there is between savage and civilized nations? Knowledge. What forms the principal difference between men as they exist in the same society," Knowledge. What raised Franklin from the humble station of printers boy. to the highest ii lonois oi his collIl- try? Knowledge. What took Sher- man from Lis shoemaker's heHeh, gave him 3 seat in Congress, and thereby made his voice heard among the wIsest and best of his compeers2 Knowledge. What raised Simon from the weayer's loom to place among the first mathe- matieians? and Herschel, from being a poor fifer's boy in the army. to q station among the first astronomers? Knowl- edge. Knowledge is power. It is the philosophers stone; tue true aIchvny that turns every thing that t touches into gold. ltis the seeptre that gives us our dominion over nature; the key that unloclSs the store house of creation, and opens to us the treasures of the uni- verse.
 And suppose you that her last vic- tory has been wop-tbe utmost limits of her dominioareaehed2 Nay, ,nly friends, she has but commenced her mareh.--
 Her most splendid triumpbs are yet ftl- ture. What new honors she has yetto bestow on her followers, into what rew fields of conquest and glory she will lead them, TO one can tell. Her voice to all is, to raiiy rouiEd her standard, ard gos forward in her victories, ard share the honor of her achievements. None are excluded from this high privilege. Her
 rewards are preferred to all; and all, thoushin different measures, may share
 in her distinctions, her hopes and bless ings.7

THE FAR VEST

Where is the West, and what is it's bounds? But q few short years have passed since our thriving town, (then q rude hamlet, stood uponthe farther con fines of the rising west. Still beyond, there did, indeed, exist an ideal realm ot future grsatness--si matted and q mighty forest, but "clouds and thick darkness rested onit." Here and there 1t was dotted with settlement of whites, clustered together for mutual assistance and mutual defence. These were few and far between;' and still beyond, and deeper sunk il the niarlssey shadows ef the wilderness, roamed the border band of Iawless and oatlawed whites-a race of men found only upon the line Of the frontier territory, between savage and civilized life; to neither of which they have any affinity, and whose anomalous character, rejecting the virtues oi either, Iinabodied, in one, the vices of both.
 But the solitude has been penetrated, the forest has been overwhelmed by the towering wave of emigration. That wave but recently spent its utmost fury ere 1t reached even here, and its last, and dying ripple was won't to fall gently at our feet; but not 50 now--itt has risen above--it has swept over us, and while its mighty deluge is yet rushing past, in

The National Gazette says" We learn with deep regret the dissolution of WILLIAM TuDeR, ilsq. who held the distinguished station ef Charge Char a'Af Al faires of the United States at the Court of Rio Janeiro. The defunct was a gentleman of eminent abilities, various and solid information, lively patriotism, refined feelings, and excellent temper and manners. He had given many years to general literature and politics; acquired much repute as an author, by a number obstructive and elegantpub- lications; and was always deemed, dur ing his career of political service, one of the most accomplished and estimab.e agents and correspondents of the Gov ernment. 4 conviction of his great
 merit induced the present President of the United States to request him to re- main at Rio, when he was about to re- turn last year. His Eriendsin Lis native city of Boston viii do that justice to his memory, which We cannot render in a hasty and brief notice.''

THE TERRITORIES.

The numerous and important matters which, from day to day, attract and di- vide our attention, have not wholly with drawn ouryiew from the prosperous con dItion of the TERRITORIES of Michigan, Arkansas, and Florida. Two or three years from this, they will propably add three fine. new, Democratic States to the federal Union. In relation to Michigan, we have been presented with the following extract of a letter, dated at 'sSt. Joseph,n near Lake Michigan, on the 10th of April.
 1" v e expect that our population will increase during the ensuing summer and fall, upwards of 1000 at least, q mean in the tract lying between the Kalamazoo and the Indiana line.) The emigrants begin to come in already, and about three hundred locations have been lately made, all it within iliiie miles otf my dwelling, and they viii be entered as soon as the contemplated Land Of fee is established. We must be con- tent as squdttegs until we havea Land Of fee near home; for few can afford the expense of a journey to the Lake Erie shore to enter their land.n
