C. and sentenced to a fine of $ 1000 and two years im prisonment in a dungeon. We understand the history of this man’s success with the Ladies will he published, from which bachelors may take les sons and girls a caution.— Courier of Monday. “THE COTTON CULTIVATOR.” “ This is the name of a newly invented ma chine, for cultivating cotton in the early part of the season, and while the plant is small, a mode! of which was shown to us yesterday by the agent of the purchaser of the patent right for South Car olina. It ploughs the cotton on both sides of the row, and thins it out at the same time ! It will do the labour of from four to six hands, and can lie drawn by one horse and managed by one man We cannot undertake to describe it, although it is a very simple thing in its construction, but do not hesitate to give it as our opinion, that it will an swer the purpose for which it is intended, in level lands, free from stumps and roots. It is highly Worth the attention of Cotton Planters, and its worth will no doubt be thoroughly tested and ap preciated by the intelligent farmers of South Car olina, to which State the Agent was going with it.” —Sentinel of yesterday. GEN. GLASCOCK. The Constitutionalist of Monday, says: “Gen. Glascock, it will be observed, has obtained an ’overwhelming vote, having been supported by both parties; but we are assured his political .princi ples are unchanged and unchangahle ; that he is Still the devoted friend of Gen. Jackson, and the Warm supporter of his administration, and will vote for the Van Buren Electoral Ticket.” “ .Assured his political principles are unchan ged ?' —-since when ? — before you covertly warn ed the Union men against him, and to vole a gninst him, as untrue to his party and principles, and guilty of tergiversation, (in your notice of the withdrawal of Col. Howard,) or after ? If the former, why, after assailing him for a change of principles, do you now declare them “ unchanged,” without admitting that you deeply wronged him, and apologizing for that olfenco : And if the latter, why, after assailing him for the position he then occupied, do you now, triumph antly, as it were, declare that position “ un changed and unchangahle,” and invite that confi dence in him, which you before endeavored to destroy, and intimated that he was entirely un worthy oft How do you reconcile all this, Mr. Guir.v ? Remember, that no osc has charged him with changing his principles but yourself, and your party friends—none else denounced him as a 11 traitor.” Why then this flourish over the vote . given to him, as though others had made such \ charges—they who have given him this “ over j whelming vole,” while many of his party friends I dropped him at the polls, and were urged to do so by you 1 Is not this renewal of the question, about his “ principles,” which none have urged but your selves, a repetition of the insult, tending as it docs, to induce a suspicion that it has been and is still open against him, in a quarter whore it has never been entertained ? Who, in that quar ter, has said that ho is not “ the devoted friend . of Gen, Jackson and his administration,” or that , he -mil not “ vote for the V. n Duron Elec ■ toral Ticket 1” If, however, after so tho roughly opposing the vile course of the traitor Pinckney, he votes to sustain those who sup ported it, and to elect to the Presidency a man whose principles on that great and all-absorbing ■ question arc in direct conflict with his own, that is a matter for himself to reconcile, not us. If his principles on that question are unchanged since we supported him, wo have every reason still to be gratified in the couisc we pursued ; and if they shall not always be so, the only disgrace, or just cause of regret, will bo his, not ours. THE WILLIAM GIBBONS. The Charleston Mercury of Monday last, says ■ “ Great anxiety prevails in our city respecting this Steam Boat, which left New York on Satur day the Bth inst. and has not been heard of since. Passengers who left New York Tuesday after noon mention that she had not put back. The mail of yesterday brings no intelligence concern ing her. Many of our fellow citizens wore ex pected in the Gibbons ; and painful apprehensions are entertained lest she may have met with some fatal casualty in the late stormy weather. The Georgia, and the Water Witch, Pilot Boats, sup plied with provisions, were sent out yesterday, in search of her, and we hope we shall have good news belore our next. We learn that the line brigs Gen. Marion, Delano, and Cordelia, SiiEßwouu, will be despatched to-day is quest of the JVm. Gibbons, A request was also made to the Collector, for the Revenue Cutter Dexter, Oapt. Rudolph, now lying in our harbor, which was promptly met, but on appplication to her commander, it was found that she was unfit for sea, heing'partially dismantled.” CHARLESTON ELECTION. Mr. Legaiie is undoubtedly elected to Con gress in opposition to the vile traitor, Pickney. In addition to the Returns mentioned in our last, those of one only of the two Parishes then to be hoard from have since been received,which, added to the others, give Mr. Leoare a majority of 68 voles. In the Parish to be heard from, (St. James Santee,) it is thought that the polls wore not opened, and admitted on all hands, if they wore, that the votes there would increase the above ma jority, and in all probability to the entire amount of them, which would bo about 20, and there fore if unanimous the other way, could not alter the final result.— lo triumphs I This is the most gratifying result of all the elections, that either has or could have happened—the most favorable to Southern institutions. And may such ever be the fate of all traitors. Will the Charleston papers have the kindness to inform us whether the defeated candidate owed his majority in the city, mainly to Union men or Nullificrs, Southerners or Northerners I “ THE LANO-STEALERS.M It will be seen by reference to the following ar ticle from the New Orleans Bee, that the Com missioners appointed to investigate the frauds of of the Laml-stealors upon the Creek Indians, and the causes of the Crock war, have entered upon their duties. We cordially wish them success, but fear, with the Bee, that they will not meet such as is desirable. The fraud to lie inves tigated is one of no common order, and will requi c a daring and determined spirit to dovclopo it, and those concerned in it, to the public, even if it he discovered. It is believed, that the Land-stcalcrs, and those concerned with them, directly and in directly, are composed of many, very many, of the most wealthy, talented, distinguished, and powerful men of the country, and of both politi - cal parlies; and that they are not confined to this State and Alabama, hut extend to Washing ton City, and the public Offices there; that the profits of the company have been so immense, as to enable them lo bribe down all opposition or difficulty, in any and every quarter, however high; that they have forestalled party opposi tion, by including popular and influential men, of both parties; and also that of the Press and the Bench of Justice, by including Editors, Judges, &c.; that they designed also to forestall that of the Supremo Court, by cfl'ccting, through their party influence, the election of two at least of the three Judges, from-among the members of their company; that lo lull the suspicions and preju dices of the Nullificrs, one of these was to lie a Nullifies and to bo recommended by the Union members of the company, to the Union parly, on the grounds of Judicial impartiality, and the pro priety of securing the confidence of both parties in the new Court and its decisions ; and that the Nullifier who attended in Mifledgcville from Co lumbus, as a candidate for Judge, while the sub ject of the Court was under discussion in the. Legislature, and who was talked of as the Judge (and the only individual as such,) whom the Union party Were willing to give to their oppo nents, was the actual nominee of that compa ny, and would have been elected through their influence. That ho is a member of that com pany, has since transpired beyond all doubt; and that ite was the very last man of all others, whom the Nullificrs Would have chosen to represent them in that Court, is equally unquestionable. Wo, and other Nullificrs, protested against his election on our account, and gold the Union men cither to let our party choose for itself, if it were lo take its share of the responsibility, or lo elect, as they had the power to do, all Union i men. For our own part, wo felt that the election -of such a man would ho a disgrace to our party ; s and it will he recollected that we. strongly pro ) tested in our paper against the pretended liberali ty of giving the Nulliflurs one of the J udgos, uu j less they were permitted to choose and nominate . him. t It is also believed, that the conduct of the Gov .l ernor toward Gen. Bailee, and his appointment t of Gen. Sanfoiiii, was brought about by the in - flucncc of this company of Land-stcalcrs —Gen. 1 Bailey having taken a inoie determined and t zealous interest in opposing them and thwarting • their measures, and in getting up the memorial - to Congress, undei which these Commissioners r were appointed, than any oilier man ; and his oc - cupnney of such a station in the Creek country, i as commander of the Georgia forces, would have ; afforded him a favorable opportunity of watching t and detecting their manouvres; while Gen. San s so itn had already been there as Creek agent, and I had probably learned all or more in that station II than ho could do in the military one; and was 1 therefore perhaps the only man from whom they > had at least nothing more to fear in that com mand.—We must not be understood as insinua ting that either the Governor or the Union party lias any thing to do with this company, or has in , the slightest degree connived at or knowingly aid ed its views and purposes; but it is easy to per ceive that the influential Union men who arc members of that company, might urge various B party arguments, and bring a powerful party in fluence to hear upon cither, without letting them know the secret, selfish, and iniquitous motives s that actuated them.—lt is also believed, that the j members and secret agents qf this infamous company wore continually around the Governor’ . Gen. Scott, and all other influential officers who , wore engaged in the Creek war and might by j chance discover any of their iniquities, to watch 0 their movements, pul them upon the wrong scent , if they should endeavor to discover them, and C not only blind them to the true causes of the , war, and members of tho company, but indicate others to them, and prejudice them against all , men who might otherwise influence them against r the company, and aid them in detecting its acts r find individuals. May not similar arts ho prac tised upon the Commissioners, appointed against them ; and is it not probable that their influence was exerted upon Gen. Jackson, in his appoint . ment of the Commissioners, in the same way ns . it is supposed lo have been exorcised upon the Governor, and the Union party, in the appoint ment of Gen. Sanford, and the nomination of Judges of the Supreme Court I—By the bye, 1 who are these Commissioners, and why have not i their names yet been made public ?—We should , like to sec them: And how happened it that , Gen. Glascock was (if we arc correctly informed and impressed,) the only member of tho Georgia Delegation in Congress who voted for the inves tigation asked by tho memorial I We should like to know on what grounds the others voted . against it, so that we might be tho better prepar i cd to judge whether any socrct influence was ex i cried upon them. ! From the Mew Orleans Bee, “We learn from the Pensacola Gazette, that the ! Commissioners appointed by the United States to investigate the frauds committed upon the Creeks by tlio “ land stealers,” and to enquire in to the causes of tho late Indian hostilities, have entered upon their duties. No doubt seems now to bo entertained that the most nefarious and un principled frauds over put in practice in the world, have been employed to cheat the Indians out of their lands. If the daring villiany of certain per sons connected with tho matter, whose names arc known, but who it would not yet be proper lo name in the newspapers, could be Fully developed, the rending world would be amazed, not so much at the want of principle in these persons, as at their hardihood and defiance of public opinion.— It is much to be feared however, that the coin mission appointed to look into this {natter will accomplish little or nothing. *ll will be compell ed to prosecute its enquiries in opposition to lire influence and power of a combination of men who have already shown that there is no crime to which they will not resort, (or (he purpose of covering over their vast wickedness and frauds. They are strong enough to break through the web of the law whenever it suits their interest to do so. We fear there is no hope hut in the di rect action of Oongioss on the subject, and,it is be lieved that if the investigations of these commis sioners, should fail to elicit the truth, (lie Presi dent will make it one of the special subjects of bis annual message to Congress. It were better that the whole surplus revenue of the government 1 should be expended in the investigation, than that so foul a slain as that which may now be said to rest upon the whole nation should not be wiped out by holding up the real perpetrators of these frauds to merited punishment and scorn.” FROM THE COXSnTi TIOV A I.IST. “ 07)" The Chronicle and Sentinel are con stantly on the watch for opportunities to attack tlie Constitutionalist. Every circumstance, how ever innocent it may be, is tortured into various shapes, in order to present it under the worst as- ' peet. There is a rancor now and then expressed in those two papers which cannot ho mistaken. (1) We Jo not reciprocate such had feelings towards our neighbors. For the evils they wish should hefal us, we wish them prosperity in their avoca tions, with the exception of the prosperity of the party to which they arc attached. (2) Tho last Chronicle declares that the “Traitor Glascock’s Tickets” (3) were printed at ties office. How were j the editors made acquainted with the fact? 7 'he ' editors of the Chronicle anil Sentinel knew (4) these tickets were printed without the knowledge and sanction of the editors of the Constitution alist. The person who printed them communi cated the circumstances to one of the editors of the Chronicle. Why then did not the Chronicle ■ state all the circumstances 1 (5) No; this would not have answered the hostile feelings of the. ed itors. By merely stating that the tickets were printed at this office, the inference would he drawn that it was done by the direction of the editors; and the editors of tlie Chronicle know ; i full well that there frequently issue from the press | of an office, printed papers which have never been submitted lo tho approbation of the editors. The • editors of the Constitutionalist never saw one i of the tickets in question; and if permission i had been asked lo print them, it should certainly have been refused. We do not ask the favor of tho Chronicle to publish this explanation. (0) It 1 sos very little consequence to us, tta the comrmt i nity in which we all reside, know how to ap i | prreiate tho motives by which its members are . ' guided. We must say in behalf of tlie person who printed the ticket, that on Tuesday morning, (7) ■ the day after the election, and after the appear iance of the Sentinel, he informed the editors of , the Chronicle and Sentinel, of his having printed the ticket without our knowledge, and requested them not to notice tho circumstance; and this ■ chcumstanco came to our knowledge only after t we had prepared an article, and given it lo the compositor, in which .we exculpated this office from issuing the ticket in question. But after we ■ were made acquainted with th circumstance, we I had lo shape our denial in a dift'erciit manner. (8) , The printer of the ticket expressed much regret ' at having done so, and at having rendered us lia ble to the misrepresentations (9) and attacks of the i editors of tho Chronicle and Sentinel, from whom . any other but generous feelings and justice can bo expected towards tho Constitutionalist. We have ’ done with this subject: we shall leave the field to ! our adversaries : they arc better skilled than wo ; arc in such a contest.” (I) This is untrue. Our readers know well I that we have seldom, very seldom, commented on i the course of the Constitutionalist, though cer i lainly not for want of abundant cause to do it frequently. As to‘torturing’every or any circum stance from its natural and proper shape, wo deny . it, and defy the proof; and Mr. Giueu knows , that we pursue a rule of publishing what wo com , ment on, which gives our readers an opportunity ofjudging for themselves, and would expose such conduct on the very face of it. The ‘rancor’ spo. , ken of we equally deny, and should like to know , any paper that manifests more rancor than the Constitutionalist, in its conduct toward the Nul , lifters. , (2.) We do not deal in professions, or might , reply to this. It were very easy for us to say all that Mr. Giiiku has done, and even more. If our acts do not shew that whatever may bo the zeal | with which wo advocate our principles and o piuions, we have no personal enmity or ill-will against any one, and are incapable of wilful in justice, then there is little use in saying so, for the public, very properly, have no respect for mere professions. (3.) We did not say the “Traitor Glascock’s tickets,” but “ The ‘Traitor Glascock’ Tickets,” as Mr. Guieo well knows—meaning tho tickets so called, and not to style Gen. Glascock a traitor ourselves, as Mr. G's alteration of our language indicates. (4) Wo did not know it—we were only told so. (5) Because, sir, as he doubtless told you, that person requested us not to do so.—We were told (not confidentially,) the da* before the election, by a person not connected rvifh the Constitution , alist office, that they were printed there; but bearing afterward that the editors of that paper declared that they were not, wo merely stated on the Wednesday after, in some remarks on the election, that they “were printed by one of the Union presses,” satisfied as we were, that neither the Sentinel Office or our own, had printed them, and that tho act was perfectly consistent with the enmity manifested toward .Ccn. Glascock by a portion of tho Union party at the lime of the election, and by tho Constitutionalist itself, in its notice of Col. Howard’s withdrawal, as formerly shewn by us. That “one of the Union presses” had printed them, vve fell confident, and believed it lo be the Constitutionalist, but as flic editors of that paper denied it, and we had no positive proof of the fuel, and might possibly be mistaken, hut felt sure it was one of them, wo merely so declared it. On the day that We did so, the journeyman who printed them asked us how wo came to know they were so printed, and we gave him the rea sons already Staled; He then voluntarily told us that they were printed there, and lie printed them, but without the knowledge of the editors, and that ho had communicated the fuel in confidence, to tho person who had first mentioned it lo us. and who had violated that confidence in doing ho; and he requested us not say any thing more about it, or more than wo could properly avoid- We promised him that wo would say no more on tlie subject than wo might lie compelled lo say in self-defence; and there the matter would have ended, hut that tho Courier afteiwards insinua ted that tlie Tickets were printed by one of the Stale Rights presses, and tho Constitutionalist also declared that it “ printed tickets with the name of Gen. Glascock at the head of the Con gressional candidates, and none others;” and that “if tickets were printed al their office it was done without their knowledge or sanction:”' —Self- defence required that we should deny the fact in sinuated by the Courier i but, mindful of our promise to the Journeyman of the Constitution alist, instead of fully vindicating ourselves, aswc might have done, we merely denied the printing of them by cither one of Ibe Stale Rights presses, and again asserted that they were printed by “one of the Union presses.” In reply to this, the Cou rier very justly asked, “if the Chronicle knows, where “the Tickets ” wore printed, why does it not say—and, conscious that justice to it re quired that we should say so, explicitly, ami that not to do so would biing discredit on our own veracity, we merely declared, of necessity, that “ they were printed at the Constitutionalist Of cc,” leaving the editors to make their own explan ation of the matter,after hearing from their journey | mail, as wc felt assured they would, vvlul hail passed between him and us, and determining to publish that explanation, even without comment, if it should be just lo us, and manifest a proper sense of our forbearance. Whether it is so, may be seen by reference to the article, above. (0) Nor do w c publish it as a “ favor,” but, aswc publish all articles that wc comment on, or that reply to us, from a sense of justice, self-re spect, and impartiality, that our readers may ace both sides, and be able to judge for themselves bc i tween the two, and censure whichever they think in tho wrong. Having never once dealt other wise by the Constitutionalist,if wc have ever cither “tortured” its “circumstances” or meanings, or manifested any “rancor” toward it, tho bane and antidote have always gone together, and tho wrong must have recoiled against ourselves, rather than injured it. Did it ever once deal thus iUi'iwuwniaiMiiii a i' t c[by us !—and if not, was it that its own “ tortu-! ( rings” and “ rancor” against us, might not bo 11 properly seen and judged of by ils readers 1 (7) .Velas, sir; it was on Wednesday mor if ning, after our first declaration, of that morning, d that they were printed by one of the Union pros l* scs. This, that person will not deny ; and the \ s . j reader will perceive, by reference to our remarks' e under No. (5) that the misstatement is an im- D porlant one. 8 (8) So, then, you knew, when you declared ) that you “ did print tickets, huT with the name j it Gen. Glascock at the head of the Congressional ( * candidates; and none others,” and that “It such I 8 tickets were printed at your office, it was done ! a 1 e without your knowledge or sanction —that these e “ Traitor Glascock” Tickets were printed at your 0 office !—and a pretty comment it is, truly,on your insinuations against our motives and feelings! U Sir, if yon fell wholly guiltless in this matter, u why, instead of concealing it from the public, under tho declaration that “If Such tickets were ( printed at our office, it was done without our knowledge or sanction,” did you not candidly say y “ such tickets were printed at this office, but it g was done without our knowledge or sanction,” and state the circumstances mentioned in your y article above? This, voluntarily done, would 1 have honorably exculpated you, and saved you , from that subsequent, reluctant, but necessary do sigmition of your office by us, which has forced it from you, while your own accidental exposure of your cflncelamcnt of (lie fact, when known lo you, justly subjects you to suspicion. Thus, sir, j you shamefully assail us and our motives for no il cessarily doing that in self-defence, which this act r of concealment forced upon us. A pretty judge lof motives, you arc, truly—a most immaculate, just, and perfect moral Censor! You talk of II “ torturing,’’ sir. Pray what was this: “If _ such tickets were printed at this office,” &c. ? And of "rancor,” too, after forcing us by this con* coalmen! of tho truth, into a position where we were compelled, either lo designate your office, after the question of the Courier, or subject the , veracity of our assertion to just suspicion; and „ then, because we did not choose tho latter, assail ua and our motives and feelings. You ask, i “ Why did not tho Chronicle slate all the cir- I cumstancus ?” after concealing those circumstan ces yomself ; and chaigo us with hostility for not t doing so, though you might have been satisfied, by I out uniform custom, that we would assuredly pub lish your reply 1 Sir, why did you not stale those circumHlancosyoursolfj acknowledging as you do, that they were known to you as much as to us. Wo hostile to you? no, sir; hut wc will Dot, j on dial account permit you, dr any man hreath j mg', to unjustly assail our motives with impuni , ty ? Do unto us, sir, as you would that wo r should do unto you, and you will never meet 1 with an unkind or harsh word from us; and » . when you again raise a stone to cast at us, bo i sure, ere you do so, that you arc without fault ? 1 > (9) This charge of “ misrepresentation” is not i only wholly false, hut -wholly unfounded, and we challenge you, sir, cither to prove that charge, or I I stand convicted, in default, not only of “ misrop- ! , rcseiitatiuii,” “ rancor,” mid “ hostility,” but al- | so of wilful falsity. , You admit that tlie Tickets were printed at i . your office, but deny that it was done with your J knowledge. After your admitted concealment of i that fact when kifdwir to you, and violent assault I upon otlr motives and feelings, you surely will i . not complain of harsher treatment lo yours, when , , wo say, that if yon did not employ your journey- | man to print ilium, it now remains for you to say i I in exculpation, who did, and thereby shew 1 , whether it was a “trick” of the State Rights par- ( ty, or the Union party. If you knowingly screen i r them, you of course have “ motives” for it, and , . are equally gnilly. .

Our mar ket has assumed rather a firmer attitude from the small quantity of the new crop coining in, and there being a good inquiry for the Havre as well as the home mamifiicturies. The principal en quiry is for square bales, that arc prime, which readily obtains our highest rates of reported sales. To assume quotations generally for any descrip tion of Cotton wc think premature. Flour. —There has none been received since our last, and it is now retailing at higher rales than our last quotation, but whether solos to any oxtc.it could be made at those rates, should wc have a supply, is doubtful.

Cotton —Amount of new Cotton received up to this time is about 800 bales, the quality of which wc are pleased to say is better than that which had came to hand this lime last Jear. Last year the first few bales brought to market sold us high as 19c: Ibis year they have been sold as high as 22e. These prices however arc no ciiter ion ofthe market,either as regards, the rates or quality—vve mention a merely as matter of re cord. Tho prospects of the crop coming in are at this time fair. There is nothing certain yet us to its probable amount. An early frost, which from present appearances may occur, would make a material difference in the extent. Different es timates htivn been made on the probable increase, in the event of no premature frosts of this years’ crop over that of last year, varying from 37,000 to 50,000 halos—At all events, vve may advise our planters to embrace the earliest opportunities of sending their Colton to mdrl'.Gti Present prices offer a handsome rclurri for ilia labor and expense for raising and preparing the raw material for the trade. Wo,cannot at this mdrnedt give a table ol classifications with corresponding prices, but as yet there has been no qualities received below fair, and we have bouid of no sales where the rates have not been ill ot above 18c, Very hide choice has conic lo hand. The prices at which operations have been effected within the last few days, have been 18 a 20e, ami a fair demand. — Tlie receipts of Colton since (he Ist inst. have been 514 hales, '/’lie stock remaining on hand on the Ist insl. was 04 bales. There have been no exports, so that the present stock is 60J bales. Nkvv Oulka vs Market, Oct. H. Cotton —Arrived since the 30th ultimo, 7479 bales.

Theodore M. , Dwight, aged 29 years. Her bereaved husband „ and child have in her death sustained a loss ~ which this world can never repair. Uut faith , points the bleeding hearts of her weeping friends, In that Eternal Host on high—the rich inheritance I of the Mossed, and whispers “peace, bo still.” Intolhnt rest and upon the full fruition of that inheritance, none who krifew her pious life, or C witnessed her lovely death, can for a moment , doubt that she has joyfully entered. In her long ! protracted sulfcrings, whielmbe boro with uncom plaining resignation, and in her peaceful departure, were exhibited in an eminent degree, the sioeetiiett rather than lire dazzling splendour of Christian Triumph. Death having, through the power of sactifying grace, lost his sting, brought no rorrf to her redeemed spirit. “Her end was full of peace,' Debiting her uniform piety serene; 4 ’Twas rather the deep humble calm of faith; Than her high triumph : resembling moru The unnoticed setting of a clear day’s sun, Than his admired departure in a blaze Os glory bursting from a cloudy course.” Though Iter many dear friends whom she left for a little season in this “ vale of tears,” weep' under the stroke of the chastening rod, and III* though the church to which she belonged mourns i over the wider breach in her little company, yet ■ wo weep not—neither mourn for her. The len dercst affection cannot for a moment wish her back again in this wilderness of sin. Site has gone a little before us to her eternal homo to enjoy forever, without a fail,between, the full glories of the lamb: “Happy Spirit! thoii hast tied Where no grief cap entrance find, Dulled to rest the aching head, Soothed the anguished of the mind; A.II is tranquil and sererie,' ('aim and undisturbed repose. There no clo'tid can intervene. There no angry tempest blows, Every tear is wiped away, Sighs no more shall heave the breast, Night is lost in endless day, Sorrow in eternal rest!” »<■«£* ’ ’ *watx. -.-mirr sagiiyutamn- THE Southern S± ri rulturist, 1 Ai-I> REGISTER OK It I Ij AFFAIRS, a n AVl'mi to 'i’ll Ky S.milium Section of the United States.
