the past week in regard to the western
frontier. According to these reports,
Brockville, Kingston, Toronto and Maiden
have all fallen into the hands of the
Patriots; but we apprehend the British flag
still waves at all these places. There is no
doubt, however, that there Is movement

ings OF large and harmonious meeting
of the strong democratic county OF
Schohaire. We say strongly demo
cratic; for such it is not withstanding
the success ofthc federal county ticket,
under peculiar circumstances, at the
late election. A correspondent, who
cncloses them for publication, says:
alt is gratifying to say that it was
one Of the best attended and most har-
monious political meetings that have
been hcldin this county formany years.
Notwithstanding the badness Of the
roads, the number was respectable, be-
ing from $50 to 200. have no doubt,
had the roads been ordinarily good,
we should have numbered from 400 to
500. The meeting had been called
witt, the view oftaking into considera-
ton the political condition Of the coun-
ty-for the comparison of opinions
and feelings among republicans, not
only with respect to local matters, but
with regard to those Of more general
nature. The addresses and resolutions
were of the right character; firm but
conciliatory in their sentiments; and
were responded to by the unanimous
voice of the meeting. This meeting
will have happy tendency, as the fu-
ture course and success Of the party
in the county will show"

o. We give the subjoined article
which appeared in a city paper on Sat-
urday. The subject, it seems to US, is
one which deserves tho consideration
Of all master builders and real estate
owners in tho city.-We cannot pre-
tend TO be judges Of the machine or its
product, but from what we have seen
and more especially from what we
have heard others say of the brick
manufactured by it, we entertain no
doub. but that the cost of materials
employed in building might be greatly
reduced and the facility for erecting
houses much improved. The experi-
ment is we'll worth the trial.
Mo. Rep.
MEssRs ED1Toss.-It was stated a
few days since in your paper that Mr..
Oliver Irwin Of Wheeling, had pur-
chased the brick establishment at Quin-
cy, on the principle Of Sawycr's Patent,
and was about to remove thereto pro-
secutc the business. Inquiry is made
at the same time why St. Louis is not
benefited by this invention? s
This inquiry seems to call for some
notice OF this new and useful invention.
Mr.. Irwin, the gentleman referred to,
is - practical brich anaker, Of much
experience both in the old and new
mode Of making brick, and abandoned
the former, because he was satisfied
the latter was the best, having had
abundant opportunity to satisfy him
self on the suhject.-His character, ss
mechanic, for sobricty, discernment,
and correct honest principles cannot
be questioned. + asWs ia ID .s,es,- e.,@
That st. Louis has not been profited
by this invention, may be attributed
to the brsck n,akers.-When the pro.
jiact was. FIRST named in this i.lacc, with
scarcely an exception, the brick makers
beganto denounceit as an ''ih,position''
ga paten. lever instruction" yankee
con,rivance," for making .swooden

his knowledge in denouncing this op-
