''-Matchcd in mouth,

The last number of the Gazette con-
tains half column Of garbled extracts
disjointed sentences, and catalogue of
unmeaning words, which suppose were
intended for me, it was fortunate for the
learned barrister that he put nv name
for a caption, otherwise it would have
puzzled any one but the eminent com
sellor himself to know who it was in
tended for; it reminds me of some of
the old dilapidated tavern signs which we
occasionally meet with in our regrina-
tons, which looks ''very like camel'
Or a bulls head but underneath, written
in large struggling letters Benjamin Frank
lin, or some other of our old revolution
airy heroes.

LEE COUNTY.

We understand that large number, in
Guiding all the most responsible citizens
of Fort Madison, have entered into obi
cations to pay to the County Commits
sioners of Lee County the sum of eight
thousand dollars for the erection of Pub
lie Buildings, provided the people will
give Fort Madison the county seat. The
money received for lots in that town will
about cover that sum, and there can be no
fear of its being paid to the Commission
ers should the county seat be located at
Fort Madison. We do not wish to inter-
fere with the affairs of Lee county, but
we feel just as we did when the question
was agitated in this county, that, situated
as Lee and Des Moines are, the citizens
of either would 60 against their own in
terests by doing any thing to retard the
growth of their river towns.
There is little or no crossing the river
at present The interchangeable driver Of
Holcomb's Peoria line, brought the cas-
tern mail over on Tuesday evening. The
punctuality with which this tri-weekly
mail is brought TO this place reflects great
credit on the contractors and those en-
Iployed in his service.
CoUNrERFEITERs. The trial Of the
coun,erleiters commenced in this place on
Tuesday. Ayres was found guilty on
that day and sentenced TO the Peni,entia-
ry. Fisher is up for trial while we are
writing. We believe there are two or
three others in the gang, who have been
in jail for some weeks s.7t &; i,
The RIvER.--The ice gave way on
| Monday to some extent, sufficient TO form
a channel before the town. The first
heavy rain must carry it all of. The wa
ter is now very low. We see by, the St.
Louis papers that boats are up for the foot
of the Lower rapids. 3a5

If we can understand the drift of one of
Mr. Benton's late speeches it appears that
he deprecates allowing the claims of those
worthless who perilled their lives in de-
fence of their country in its darkest hour
and who in many instances spent their
fortunes in rearing the structure Of our
liberties. To 'deprecate'' bestowng up
on these worthless the pitiful pension
which Congress has allowed them, and
without which they must. either starve or
spend their last days in a poor house. is
a species of refined cruelty, and shows
how much veneration Thomas II. Benton
has for the memories and how much SYM
PATTY he has for the suferings of the Pat
riots 81 the Revolution. The following
extract from a late denagogue speech Of
his will show that we have not mistaken
his meaning
e"Mr BENTON deprecated the temper
of the times, and the general disposition
which now existed to look to the Federal
Government for relief from distress, and
for favors and privileges of every kind.
The spirit began to be engendered above
twenty years ago, when protective tar
ifs, PENSION LISTS, AN. Bank, inter-
nal Improvements. and so many schemes
to employ persons, and to expend money,
occupied the debates and the legislation of

For the Hawkeye and Patriot

James NJ. Morgan, Giaeral, learned
in the Law, &c. &c. &c.
Mr. Editor--You will recolect that the
last number of the Hawkeye, contained a
synopsis of the +" If-said'' animal, to-
gether with parting benedic,on and an
account of our separation at the forks
of the road.
Disguised in all the mask of night, @
We left our champion on his flight,
At blind-man' s-buff to grope his way,
In equal fear of night and day;
Who took his dark and desp'rate course,
He knew no better than a horse -
I regret to inform you that instead of
keeping on in the even tenor of his way,
he suddenly became rabd at the sight of
a log cabin lost has chart and wandered
about without knowing whittier; frantic
with rage, embitter'd by the thought that
he would have to
- ,Repress the god within him,
And 60 unlaurelcd upto heaven!!
He therefore returns again to his old
tricks Of political pimpi,ag, prefering an
inglorious no!oriety to an Insignificant
retirement-lhe ruling passion IS Strong
in death--and under the vivyfying prin-
ciple of animal magnetism he astounds
the readers of the Gazette with thoughts
that breathe and words that burn--inter-
nally-judging from the mouth Of the
crater-he cast the convulsive lava of
bitterness disemboweled from the dark
chambers Of his fiery abyss. He seems
to have converted himself into a galvanic
battery until every hair sticks out 9 like

Ity in color but its transit is morerapid

We received Double Boston Notion
last week. In size it may be looked up
on by Manufacturers as good pattern for
bed quilts, and blankets--its dimensions
being six feet by four feet three inches
None but a country with a Territory as
large as ours could produce such mas
.tadon. 1t is full of interesting matter, and
can be had at the low price of three dol
lars, per annum.

it comes double will be ''lee,le" larger

Hoes. Messrs BR1DGMAN and PAIR.
RIDGE Of this town have packed upwards
of seventeen hundred Hogs during the
past fall and winter. They have con
tracted for the erection, of very large
building, and intend to go into the .busi,
ness much more extensively the next sea-
son. All attempts to array the farming
interests against such an establishment
are as futile as would be the attempt TO
sink a IA gun ship with a pop gun.
