Friends of the country ! is it not

entranced i The ene uy is at your gates. >.
A band of greedy speculate's, with corrupt,
lion in their front, and (he semblance of juslicq.
in their rear, are marching in triumph over
the prostrate ruins of public virtue. They pro
claim tons, that the supreme court of the Uni

fer almost an empire—the whole Yazoo coun
try—to recompense the fraud of rapacious spe
culators ?
This advertisement speaks for itself. It is
addressed as a Cautionary Notice, “ to settlers
a'nd alf persons contemplate g making purchas
es of lands in the Mississippi territory, granted
by the legislature of he sta e of Geo'gia,^by
their act passed the 7th day of Jmua:y 1795 ”
It 'ells them that the secretary of the treasury
laid a report before congress on the 15th De
cember last, comprising a letter from John
Brahan, receiver of the public monies, in which
•“he has endeavored to : diffu3e - the most erro
neous impressions, relative to the title of those
individuals, who claim uridertJiS.aforesaid act.”
In this letter Mr. B- “thinks it expedient to
have the authority of the secretary of the trea
sury, to inform the settlers who may purchase
present, under the judgment of the supreme
judicial court, are-utterly unable to grant."
Mr. P. winds up -this curious “ cautionary
otice,” with subscribing himself “ one of the
principal owners of lapd in the Mississippi ter
ritory, under the grants of the state of Georgia,
recorded in the office of the secretary of state
of the Uniied States, and whose title has been
adjudged Valid in the case aforesaid.”
