HalfBreed Lands

NOTICE is hereby given that the under
In signed, claimants Of interest in the half
breed lands, are not cooperating with Messrs
Ain e. Little, In sale of the half breed lands,
or any portion of them. That we do NOT re-
cognise their right to sell, and shall contest
any title which they shall pretend to convey,
and that whoever purchases from them, can in
no event hold a greater right than those gentle
men possess, which we believe to be much
smaller than they pretend to claim. There has
las yet been no judicial ascertainment of the
rights of the claimants, and we, with others
are endeavoring to have an investigation take
place, and final determination made as to the
claims of all, before any sale, in order that
Justice may be done to every one. the course
pursued by Messrs. Ali g. Little has ten
dency to throw every thing into confusion, and
create endless trouble and litigation. We
therefore warn all persons against purchasing
from them.

Short crop Of cotton and The cribs hc,eo IN great
degFee arefted so far as one Of sister States is
concerned By the Mississippi Union Bank.
This powerful institutions very opporuney accom-
molang the Planters which will enable Them to Ii Id
their crops until the spinners in Europe and America
become convinced of the exte, of the deficiency of the
present crop, known to the planters to be half in
Mississippi, and fourth in most of the other
growing States. Louisiana has however full crop OF
excellent quality with any other state in the
Union.
| The cry of Wolf Wolf has been often put forth
when there Wolf that the spinners viii this
occasion be slow to believe in the often told stories OF
tie shoriness of the present CROP hence the good poll
cy OF the planters accepting advance and holding
htir cotton to the end OF the when it will
.edly net great full crop would have
done former pices il is therefore particularly for
tuna tie that the Union Bank is this time in posses
sion of ample funds and managed by intelligence
and liherality with disposition render that institu-
ton useful to her citizens.
In a communication under the signature of Justice
recently published in this paper the writer endenvored
to demonstrate that advances BY the Bank to the Plan

leans, although it diminished the profits of the Bro
ker, The Factor, the Cotton Press and the Drayman
the money diifused by such advances through all the
avenues of commerce Of infinitely more advanmg,

In this opinion cordially unite with that writer
