your fellow citizens, is fixed and certain as
fate. cannot understand your zeal in a
cause that is to bring this immense loss upon
this State, when the defeat of this cause is
sure to give to this State this immense re-
source.
Suppose this State had suit pending, and
ifcarred for the State, it would put million
Of dollars into the State Treasury that this
claim of the State was her just due, by every
title of law and equity-what would you
think of body of men in the State, who
should array themselves against this claim
should oppose it with zeal bordering on fa-
naticism; whose newspapers should come out
against it; who should employ, and send on
counsel, and fee them to plead against it?-
Would you not say of them, if not wicked,
that they must be the weakest of men? Yet
this is the part, which you, yourselves, are
enacting.

VUNHERE is nothing connected with gentle
l. mans dress which makes him appear more
ridiculous, than long beard and bushy head;
therefore he that would look well should have
his hair cut often, yet his looks are not much
improved by having it cut if it is not cut as it
should be. Some cut hair in such manner as
would lead one to conclude that it had been
gnawed by some animal, or pounded off with

more firmly fixed in the head, and this is the on

subscriber has paid particular attention to the cut
ting and culture Of The hair for great length of
time, which enable him to cut in any form or
fashion which may be required, and in this
branch Of his business he acknowledges no supe-

can use them to cut hair, and may cut it in a
fashionable manner too, that is, they may cut it
off Of one side Of the head and leave it on the
other, os the fashion may be, which is all that
many, very many know about cutting hair who
pretend to cut; but for a person to understand
this part OF the business as he ought, he must be
a mechanic-and have the eye Of a mechanic.
he must know how the head will look (when it
is fnshed) before he begins to cut this the sub
