TO THE PUBLIC.

The tracts embraced in the above proclamation
of the President comprise all the residue of the
lead mines yet to be brought into market south
of the Wisconsin river. They cover those mines
particularly the portion situated in Iinos) work
ed under former leases from the Government which
had expired at the date of the sale of the ada
cent mines, and therefore possess the advantage of
being prepared for immediate operations, without
incurring the increased expenses incidental to
opening new mines, and most of them are believed
to be very productive. They are all more or less
conveniently situated in reference TO the navigablc
rivers and other cheap means of transportation of
their products to st. Louis, and in the midst OF
a country yielding abundantly all the agricultural
products Of the latitude in which they are located.

FRiEsD OLIVER JonSsoN Being impressed
with the belief that it would be right for me TO
try to give my views of few subjects, there
fore send the following reflections for insertion
in The Buglc.
When we contemplate the great founder Of
tho Christian Religion as the pattern to which
our lives should be conformed, how very far
our actions fall short of our profession! For
instance, we are enjoined to "love our neigh
bors as ourselves" and that upon this injunc-
ton hangs the whole law AID the prophots.-
Now for professor of Christianity to hold
hundreds of acres of the soil more than he can
cultivate, at the same time that thousands of
brother professors are iamishing for want OF
land to till; for the Editor of apaper to receive
5000 per year FOX his services, while the Prin-
ter, for at least as great an amount of labor,
gets perhaps one half that sum OF for any ono
to build himself splendid mansion, containing
rooms which he does not need, while whole
families of ncighbors arc crowded into uncom.
Portable cabins, seems to me so obviously at va.
rance with the very spirit and letter of the gos.
pei, that am at loss to understand how many
high professors of Christianity reconcile their
practices with their professions.
1t appears to me that even the Dismionists
are not without some Inconsistencies; for in
stance at the head of The Bugle We read these
emphatic words No Union with Shareholders
Whilst many of tho most jealous advocates OF
the doctrine hesitate not to make daily use oi
the products OF slavery, thus essentially and
practically uniting with slavcholdcrs in the use
of their illgottcn gain. sly opinion is that sla-
very will never be peaccably (that is without
bloodshcd) abolished until we cease, so lar as
practicable. to have any thing to do with the
products OF Slave labor; that monopoly is the
great corner stone upon which is erected all the
institutions of oppression which arc fraught
with so much misery and wrctchedness to man
kind. JACOB HARRIS.
