Specie for Duty Bonds.--It seems that
the merchants can get abundance of specie
to ship to England, to pay debts there, which
Mr.. Biddle says they ought to pay at all G.

Of War may have no other motive in SEN

days since by gentleman direct from
Natchitoches, that there were near two
thousand persons,-one half slaves
camped in that vicinity, who were on their
way to Texas. Many planters, it is repor-
ted, have left their farms with crop newly
planted, and started for Texas with their
negroes. They had been deceived by the
treachery of the times, into large purchases
of lands, and, now that the bubble has burst
and they can no longer enjoy either their
imaginary wealth or find the means OF
paying their debts, are fleeing to Texas
with their negroes, as the only means Of

From the Temperance Almanac

We earnestly commend to all our fel
Iow-citizens, the following twenty-three
positions, which are abundantly proved
and fully illustrated in the eight first re.
ports ofthe American Temperance Society,"
They are from the pen of the Rev. Justin
Edwards, D. d.
In the previous reports Of the American
Temperance Societies, the following truths
are proved and in various ways, by a
great variety of facts and reasonings illus.
trated and enforced, viz:
|. Alcohol, the intoxicating ineredien:
in spir;tuous liquor, is not the product
Of creation, or ofany living process in ma,
ture.
2. 1t is the fruit Of vinous fermentation:
and is generated by process which takes
place in certain vegetable substances after
they are dead
3. 1t is not, as beverage, needful or
useful to men, in order to the eniovmen,
of the highest health, the greatest ability
for bodily and mental effort, and the LONG
est continuance of life
a. 1t is, to the human constitution. 2
prison; the use of which, as BEVERAGE
is always hurJul.
5. 1t produces many, and aggravates
most of the diseases to which the human
frame is liable.
g. 1t tends to render diseases heredi
tary, and thus to deteriorate the human
race.
T. 1t weakens the understanding; stu
plies the conscience, and hardens tn.
heart.
g. 1t often causes insanity, and produce.
predisposltion to that disease in the off
spring of those who use it.
9. 1t occasions the loss of great a
mount of property.
10. It lessons and often DESTROYS socia
enjoyment; and causes great increas,
of domestic wretchedness.
| IL. 1t weakens the power of motives t.
do right, AMI increases the power of mo
tives to do wrong.
