fFor the DaiIy,l

Mr.. EDIToR:-I am very glad that the real
and substantial interests of Lancaster are
beginning to find an advocate in your coli
umns; and many circumstances seem to en-
courage the hope, that the effort is not DOOM
ed, like some which have preceded il, to be
spssmodie and ePhemeraI.
Those interests have been long neglected.
This is now the confession Of every inhabi-
tant. 1t has been more than ordinary neg.
lect. 1t has been Os the very worst charae-
ter,-bad in its origin and causes, and il as-
sumed still worse forms in each stage Of its
continuance. Ii was merely selfish, at first,
but degenerated until il became almost soul
less and miserly,--rejecting. all the while.
the attractions of local advantages, which.
would have inspired, with energy. almost
any other people, ani produced growth
and prosperity, of which our present condi-
ton would be very poor miniature.
But it isns part of my purpose to impeseh
and criminate the past. 0: to expose its dis
astrOus effects upon great and generous OBJ
jeets. in behalf Of which am enlisted by the
instincts ofprogress and the interests Of
vocation. MY aim is far different, and springs
from the hope and promise, which make
the present the cheering contrast Of the
past.
l intend, Mr.. Editor, with your permission.
to present to the public few short articles,
suggestive Of the best means, in my judg-
ment, ,ofsecuring the Increase of population,
which is guaranteed to US by the healthinsss'
beauty and local advantages Ofour ely.
That increase must be accommodated wit n
dwellings. The necessity is felt BY all, and
makes the question, as to means, vital and
immediate.
Twill undertake 10 show, in tomorrow.
PaPer-if you admit me to an audience with
your readers-that abundant means arc

Ma. EDIToR:-I have said our great want
is an increase of tsnements. to accommodate
our augmenting population, and have put
myself under an engagement to show that
we have abundant means, TO effect that OBJ
jeet, If combined, BY association.
The principle Of association has been ad-
vocated by some Of the first minds Of the
age, and is vindicated by satisfactory ex-
pertinent.
1t proposes the supply of the wants Of man.
the augmentation of his material comforts,
his advance in civilization, and the increase
of individual and aggregate wealth. Ills.
therefore, in its objects, a benevolent prin-
ciple; and, in the realization Of its purpo-
ses, men will find happy combination Of
interest and duty.
know Of nothing, in the character Of
our people, repugnant to the generous OBJ
! iecis of modern association; and suppose 1t
is only necessary to present to them de-
s:rable scheme, to which its applicability IL
pracucable.
Such an object is exhibited, am sure Ia
the subject Of these numbers.
The object is, certainly, desirable. Il
proposes an enlargement of population, an
increase Of employment, and, OF COURSE
greater comparative comfort and indePen-
dence to the laborer. Its practicabiliiy do
| pends upon our means.
Material, labor and subsistence are the
essentia elements. These, where they ex-
list, are Of easy combination. But labor 10
the basis Of all. 1t manufactures the ma
terial, produces the subsistence, and gives
them their Ultimate condition Of conyen-
ience, comfort and value.
These suggestions indicate my idea, IN
respect to the competency OF our meaps.--
Their full development win too much en-
croach upon your columns. to-day. re-
serve ii, therefore, for future numbaFs.

cusons--the use of an axe once in clearing

Gates was not served with an extra quanti-
