While we arc writing and urging popu-

people, old and young. white and colored,
are leaving it for more favored regions.
Here is the practical effect of the want
OF good and honest government. Men
begin to despair of living here any longer
in comfort ind peace. They break up
old associations, doing violence to the
most endearing ties, and yensuring upon
untriei scenes and uncertain fortunes in
order to escape the oppression and pain
OF present and prospective ills here. It
is indeed lamentable, and we wish that
We could see any better prospect ahead
which would justify us in demonstrating
against this removal from our borders.
Those in authority and in positions of
responsibility, those who make and
administer our laws. those in the State
who are the authors OF its troubles, and
who have brought it to the pass it is now
in, ought to take this movement as one
which seriously reflects upon themselves,
and try. il it be possible. to mend their
ways. Condemned in this practical way,
they should repent in sackoloth and
ashes, and for the future try to do better,
