The Organ concludes its article, which con.
tains much food for thought, with the following
remarks: alt will be seen that this invitation
likewise includes citizens of all other States. We

current of the lower Mississippi and causing the
products of its mighty valley to be poured out

patronage of Queen Victoria They prefer an
alliance with monarchy,an established religion,
a patented nobility, and a standing army, to
further association with people that, under
Washington, came to Boston aud kept the British
from overrunning the country and that too
when they had scarcely round of ammunition
in their camp. They too pure TO participate
in this Council for composing our sectional strife
and perpetnating an equal Union We must ds.
