LEAD MINES.

We understand, that for some years past, from
l3oio 100 Tons OF Lead have been obtained annual
". from The Mines in Wythe County and sold prin-
cipaly in the Baltimore Market. One year, as
high as POO Tons were manufactured. These
mines, We learn, are capable OF supplying the
til In almost any extent; but owing to the high
price OF carriage and the want OF facilities OF trans
portaton 10 makct, tho manufacture OF the article
Iias been limited annually, to about the quantity
bove mentioned
Il is tn be regretted, that South Western Nirginis,
a. rich she is in valuable minerals, should not a
vail herself Of the advantages which might be de-
rived from them. Rail Road 10 one of the Eas-
tern Markets would enable her to furnish annual
" Lead, Iron, Salt, Gypsum, Marble, Copper,

earth. Our mineral treasures must remain where
they are, comparatively useless until the people
shall have enterprise enough To construct some
means Of getting to Market.

ATTENPTFD BANK ROBBERY.

\ bold attempt was made Sunday night &c
rob the Merchanl,' Bank. soon after midnight
the .atchmcn " the Bank heard a noise which sat
sfed them that some one was attempting to enter
by breaking through the wall on the south side oil
tho building. One of them Immediately went
round 10 the south side of the Exchange, and iia-
Wing gained an entrance to the rotundo, proceeded
10 the MARYLAND Insurance Office, adjoining the
Bank, in which nc suspected the attempt was be-
ng made. While cndcavornp TO open the door
of the Office, which he found bultcd the inside,
he heard movement within, followed by the
throwing up of one Of the front windows on Gay
street. The rogue, 1t appears, jumped from the
window, but II is supposed did not clear the iron
railing OF the in front, and thus spraincd his
ancle severely. Ills groans scon attracted the at,
lcnton Of the other Waterman, and as the latter
came up, the robbcr attempted TO knock him down
with short elastic suck, loaded at each end with
lead, which he had attached to his wrist. The
Waielman, however, received no injury, and the
rogue was secured.
On gaining admission into the Insurance Office
A slngula d,yclopcmcnt was made. The Villain
10y mean, of false keys, had opened the large book
safe vault IN the office. and had been ndus,ri-
ouslv at work in endcavorlng to effect an entrance
through the bric@ wall at its north end into the
bank. lie had already succeeded, when discover
ed, III removing one range OF the Dicks Tor space
sufficient, large to admit him easily. He had
provided himself a crowbar, hammer, ch,cl, brace
with anger, and bits with dozen different dimen-
,lons for boring, six inch rule skeleton keys OF
rious patterns and dlmensons-m fact, every i'm
pement which regular workman would require
II removing wall or opening locks. He had even
taken care to provide himself with pair of white
leather gloves, ando wrap one end OF his crow bar
in cloth, 50 that his hand might not be hlistprcd
while engaged at work. One of the gloves wa,
found III the vault, and the other was taken from
him n, the walch.housc. 1t is supposed that he
effected an entrance TO the Exchange by opening
one of the basement passage doors with his falls,
keys, and by the same means opened the In
Office and its book vault lie SAYS his nam,

The Arkansas advocate., 1835-04-24

We regret to learn that the steamer Wm PARSONS, owned and commanded by Thomas F. Tunstall, was sunk in this river on Tues day evening, I4th inst. about 40 miles above the Post of Arkansas, and will probably be entirely lost, except perhaps her engine.- The Gazette states that s'she struck a snag, which knocked a large hole in her bottom and was immediately run on sand bar, where she unfortunately run on log, which, on the falling of the water caused her to break in two." The cargo, worth, 1t is said, about $60,000, was mostly insured. The boat was not. Most of the cargo was got ashore by the aid of the Compromise-but much dama- ged. The passengers with their baggage, were landed in safety.

To the Editor Of the yadoocate:
 SIR-Falsehood, when sturdlly asserted and defended with impudence and boldness,
 4 +.s+4 e45+ fsFeefs that'this axiom Is true; and the Gazette proved 1t in lS33 by its bold defence of the owners of the Ten Section claims When unhallowed hands have selzed the helm of the good ship of State, the fortunes and rights of the poor are always the first to be wrecked. It is my firm belief, that never Tn any country, have more wicked and unjustifable practices been connlved at-not to say practised, by men in authorl- ty, than in Arkansas, with regard to these claims. When the assertion was first made that citizens had been deprived of theT pre- emplion rights by the licensed robbery of specalators- and that improvements had been located on by Ten Section claims, the Gazette unhesitatingy and broadly de- nied the fact, and supported its denial by several cerllicates-how obtained, the Ed- itor of that print best knows. Sc bold was the denlal-and so well did arrogant false- hood assume the semblance and the gu'se of truth, that the people were convinced that not an improvement or pre-emption right had been thus wrested from the hun'- ble citizens on the Mississippi. Even now' there Is but small proportion of the Peo- pie who believe the contrary. l aver thaa t has been done, Tn many, very many ia. stances-and l call on the Gazette to con- tradlct it-if he dares. The locusts that ra- wage the East, are not greater curse 10 the people of those i'll fated countries, than a horde of spectators to the people Of new country-and what shall we say ot the servants of the public, who make then, selves the fools of the speculators-aias who employ men as uaprincipled as them- selves to take from the citizen that proper ty which natural justice and the laws of n's country secure to him? Chosen by the Peos pie to defend those rights, they have betray- ed them to the peoples most invereraie toes
 they became the jackalls to tho hyena.
 When the first pioneers settled the wess- ern bank of the Mississippi, they encoun- tered difficulties with which those oi the emigrant noao bear no comparison. Ii tne settler wished to see his neighbor, or to op-
