AcaciG.-The rapid growth of Black Lo-
Gust, the beauty ofits verdure, the sweet
ness and delicacy of its flowers, and a
bove all, its unparalleled excellence for
Posts, recommend it to the special atten-
ton of the agriculturist.
DirectionS.-Collect the seeds from
the tree at any time during the winter,
or early in the spring. Put them in
boiling water, and let them soak until
the water gets cold, or longer they will
get soft then drill in rows or feet
asunder, like peas. They will come up
Immediately, and grow feet high the
first summer. They should not be SOW
ed before the first of May, as frost will
kill the young plants. Rabbits will not
injure them. -Four square roods of land
will produce thousands of young trees
for transplanting. Every farm contains
waist spots of land to which they could
be proftably removed-and where is
the man that would not feel pleasure in
contemplating these little groves spin
ming up from seeds he once held in his
fingers, and promising comfort to his
children, when the hand that planted
them, shall moulder in the grave?
1.-THE above directions are followed in
planting, in IL or 10 years an abundance
of the best post timber can be furnished
on farms which above all others most re-
quire substantial post and rail, or hedge
fences.

sisting of James Wilson, James Bothwick, James G

McDavd, Hugh Hightower, and b. R. Williams, to

were unanimously adopted.
In pursuance of right vested in the people, by the
constitution and laws of our country, to assem-
BILE in peaceabe manner, and devise and propose mea-
for the public good, have met this occasion
for the purpose of expressing views in relation to
the policy pursued by the present Chief Magistrate OF
the United States, and to recommend aud adopt such
wilItend to promote his reelection to that
station he has filed with much honor to himself, and
with such signal advantage to the Union.
1t is the constitutional duty of the people to elect
number of electors of President and Vice President
equal the of the in both branches
of the national legislature at the quadenna elections
in November next Preparatory to this election, and
that the object OF the republican party in this state
not be defeated by want of unaninity in feeling and
concert in action and also in accordance with the sug
gestion contained in the address of the Jackson meeting
recently held in Vandalia, feel it incumbent
solicit the corporation Of friends in the other cou
ties of the state, and especially in this Congressional
District As some differences of opinion have existed
with regard to the number of electors which the
of Illinois is entitled, being contended by tn at
the ratio of representation under the late will
not take effect until after the next presidential election,
and by Others that shall be entitled to the number
which may be allotted by the apportionment we
deem advisable to be prepared for either contingency
We would beg leave to state it opinion however
that should the apportionment bill become a law
during the present session of Congress- the state of Hi
nois will be entitled to five electoral votes in conormi-
ty with law passed by the second Congress, approved

only about 600 appeared, who were divided INTO
three parties, each Of which were surprised at
their places Of rendezvous; they did not however
surrender without resistance, and the conse-
uuence was that lives were lost on both sides.
One part of the plan of the conspirators was to
distribute 100000 francs among the principal
actors. The conspiracy occurred on the LIST OF
February, and its ramiications are thought to
have been extensive throughout the departments,
but more so in Paris, and to embrace several for
leipners of distinction Considerable sums OF
money and arms were found on the persons ar
rested who amount in all to about 200. The
effect of the suppression of this movement, ii was
supposed, would be to strengthen the ministry, as
ali the divisions of parties seemed to view the
ATTEMPT as rash and foolish one.
Thd celebrated sect of st. Simonians had at

RUSSIA AND POLAND.
The Moscow Gazette of the 9th December
contains an article strongly indicative of the bad
feeling entertained by the Russian Government
towards England. 1t states that the Russian
Government is indignant at the part which Eng
land tobk in the troubles Of Poland, and says
shut wd shall have our turn. We will strip off
its mash, and will show the world how people
is rescued from slavery. "IIow,' it asks, 'can
this Albion, loaded with debt, and now imbued
with the most perfdous principles, dare to rouse
the bear, which was near devouring Napoleon
with the first army that ever entered its territory,
and then went to punish his temerlty at Paris
itself. No; its turn must come, and then we
shall make no treaty with that people, except in
Calcutta" "We barbarians and slaves, as it calls
US, will give it a lesson"
Preparations were mixing at Riga for the re
ception of the Emperor on his journey to the
Polish provinces.
The Poles banished to Siberia, are divided in
to three classes, and their hnishments graduated
accordingly. Those who sought refuge in Prus-
STA, would be allowed to return to Poland,
