gave the name rs WIN. C. Smith. And though
our law regards the middle name as no name,

"airy nothing has the effect Of changing the
locality and rendering doubtful. the identity Of
the fair donor. We hasten then to max. The
correction, and after the example Of Edmund
Burke. who. when corrected by Lord North, for
having made false quantity. in n quotation
from Latin poet, (Which, by the way. We

The proposition made to Congress by this
ordinance is Of the most extraordinary charnc

committee proposes to give her the usual
grants which have been made to most of the
