Letter from Prince William Co.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette ]
DUMFRIEs March l3.----We are all rejoicing
at the return of Spring, and the opening of
navigation, after SO long and drear winter as
we have had, and which appears to have been
very exhaustive of the necessares Of life. Hogs
and sheep, throughout the country have suffer
ed greatly in consequence of the continued fro
zen condition of the earth, and some anxiety is
now felt on the subject of the comparative
scarcity Of corn. ....
Mr. Frinks, our indcfatigable mail carrier, -
deserves the thanks of this community for his
punctuality in supplying us with mail matter
throughout the late inclemenr season, and the
many little acts of Kindness performed by him
outside Of his official duty, has rendered him
one Of the most popular and reliable carriers we
have had in long time. sa y..s 900. -
We get all the news by the Gazette, and |
often say to those who have school children,
that newspaper like the Gazette is almost
equivalent to having tutor in the family.

The American Colonization Society is making
an earnest appeal for money to colombo in Ii
IBERIA more than two thousand freedmen who
want to 60 there. Four thousand freedmen
have petitioned Congress to send them to Ii
IBERIA, or to give the Colonization Society the
means to send them. Some of their petitions
have been published. and aso some letters from
them, from all of which we judge they are per-
sous of some Intelligence, good character, and
earnest in their desire to emigrate. They are
poor and unable to pay their expenses. Many
of them have friends in Liberia They are all
needed tbere-and as they want to go there, it
seems desirable that they should be assisted
The Society's ship is expected to sail first Of
May and can carry six hundred and fifty of
them. Donations should therefore be made at
