$4,000 wanted Ana thirty days.

The society has been applied to for passage to
Liberia in the next vessel, for upwards of SIXTY
slaves, left by will, near Murfreesboro, N. C., with
the privilege of emigrating, if the society can pay
their expenses They represented, TO US, to be
a most worthy and excellent family, and all anx-
ious to go to Liberia
Ii will require $4,000 to defray the expenses of
their passage, and support them six months after
they land there. But the society has no funds in
hand at present to apply to this object while the
whole of the receipts, upon which calculate
with any certainty for many months to come, are
appropriated TO other urgent necessities. We,
therefore, invite attention TO the following proposal;
The way 10 raise $4,000 in thirty days.
A gentleman in Alabama proposes "to be one
of thirty, to contribute 800 each, for the purpose
of defraying the expenses Of coonizing the family
of about sixty from Murfreesboro N. G., who
have, by the will Of their late master the privilege
of going to Liberia in the next packet"
The gentleman who has sent us this proposal has
been warm friend of the society, and liberal
annual contributor to its funds. The above offer
evnces the deep interest which he feels in the sue
cess of the enterprise.
We hope there are ttoenty nine others of like
spirit, who will be ready to join him in the noble
endeavor 10 send to Liberia this large and interest
ing family. We lose no time in laying his offer be-
fore the phianthropc, and trust they will promptly
respond to the call There is time to be lost.
We expect the Liberia packet will return from her
present voyage in time to sail again about the lst
of December next, at which time they must go, if
they go at all.
Remittances should be made to

because exercise, so necessary to the maintenance
of health, sso little matter of habit and education
here, and largely insisted upon in England !;
and it is because exercise, when taken here at Il,
is too often matter of duty, and has soul in
it while the English woman who takes living
interest in her rural empoyments, inhaes new
life in every days occupation, and plants perpetual
roses in her cheeks, by the act of planting
