t'lwm the European Corre*pondent ofthe Nation
al Intelligencer.
Paris, March 1,1846.
At th last sitting of the Committee'of the De
puties on the appropriation of the ninety-three
millions of francs to th” naval establishment, the
Minister of Marine was summoned and heard on
the points witether the numlier of sail-vessels of
war should not he diminished, some assigned
merely to the protection of the coasts, and a cor
respondent increase of th? steam navy be under
takers This would be apart from the addition of
the thirty war-steamer*. The Minister did not
decide; hut is to explain himself further. Ac
cording to an official report, the crews of the. war
► learners miy consist, in great portion, of picked
ddiers—a signal advantage, it is observed, for
France. A journalist .remarks that no nation,
with the material resources of the United States,
makes so little elJirt to organize them even for
defence—much less for aggression; that the Uni
ted Stales have merely a negative, passive, or
repulsive power, which it has become the French
aad British policy to metamorphose into gigantic,
aggressive, ambitious, invasive strength and pre
iwralion.
Th official and semi-official journals of this
r*i vul pronounce the question of the war in Al
ger* to be “ the nast vital, the most serious, the
interesting of all that can engage the at
tention of the country.” How it stands you may
by an article of the London Times, en
dured in my fetter of the 26th, and forming an
ample and accurate survey. But with'what grace
* !tc Times lectures, admonishes, and reprehends
F aner, you may judge by the official reports and
personal views it presents at the same time of the
British battles and designs in India. You will
re* that (Governor General Sir Henry Harbinge
has been as roughly handled by the London press,
as Marshal Bugeaud is daily by the French.—
The Chronicle condemns and rates Sir Henry
beyond privilege. The Standard defends him
■train* the charge of having liecn surprised by
tire Sikhs. His object, according to other sapient
journals, was to decoy the Sikhs into an aggres
won. Wc may adopt the conclusion of another
editor, that “the operations on both sides, in the
late Indian actions, have been criticised by persons
as little capable of understanding as of fighting
rueh battles.”
In the Journal dcs Debats, of yesterday, wc
have a curious article on Mexico from the semi
official Madrid organ El Heraldo. The debats
|dacrs it with these sentences ; “The recent
revolution in Mexico has excited a lively sensa
tion in H|iaui, where it has awakened all the old
sympathies for that rust empire of the N cw W orld.
Public opinion seems to catch with elation the
►lea of waling a Spanish Prince on the ancient
throne of Montezuma. We translate the article
of El Dcrakfo, which, on this occasion, is the echo
of the whole Spanish press, and aims at the rally
ing all parties to one opinion.” I could wish to
|P v e von lb* entire article of the Madrid oracles,
I *ut it i- too long. I must be satisfied with render
ing the two concluding paragraphs from the
French of the Del tats: “As soon as a Spanish
Prince should be placed on the throne of Mexico,
that obi jewel of the crown of Castile would be a
free, great, and independent nation. Mexico
would occupy a primary station in those distant
■egreas; her influence would be felt by the
neighboring communities, and having* become
the rival in power and foreign relations with the
Government (the American Union) that now
pndotniiea in the new world, the Mexican people
would irach a condition of welfare ami political
rtahihty unsusceptible of future doubt and change.
European policy would sanction the transforma
tion. England could not have brooked that the
liepvddie of the Union, already ao-powerful, should
beyond its recent annexation of Texas, and
include within its domination the vast Mexican
•rrrit.wy, for that would lie yielding to her rivals
t!w mean* of supremacy on the seas. France,
rei her side, would sec in the incorporation of
Mexico with the United States, the coup de grace
lor her distant possessions, which would soon suc
cumb to the American colossus. Inline, the
other Europe.in monarchic* would not allow the
bvUnce of power to be so- fur shifted in favor of
la* United States that they might be the almost
exclusive masters of commerce and navigation.”
••Hat the establishment of a Spanish prince on
£ic throne of Mexico would be a sure pledge of
order and peace for those remote countries—an
clement of constant resistance to the ambition of
live peojde of Washington; and, besides, the
prxHectoratc of Bpain could inspire no distrust nor
apprehension ; for, unhappily, our Government is
for from holding the rank she possessed when
I harfes V. and Phiiiippe swayed the two hemis
phere*. and their flag was respected in Italy,
Flanders, Portugal, and America. We cannot
’adievc that any of the parties in Mexico will be
o,‘(sired in the feast to this project, in which she
has co general and unequivocal an interest: the
Uoarervatives and the Progressists, the Absolut
ist* and the Democrats may well concur when
the national weal and glory are in question.”
According to previous speculations, the Mexican
constitutional monarrhv must bo framed on the
oxquisitc Spanish model, which you know is a
ntarwcllou* adaptation of the French. Our ad
vice* of the 22d instant from Madrid consist of
. vri|>iKW*of the fancy balls of the Queen and
the British Aiiib.iss.nlur. The members of the
K >val family shone by the superlative richness
and elegance of their costumes, exemplifying
fwshinu* from the seventeenth centuiy to the reign
of Louis AVI. inclusive.
The ~ leader*’ ofthe Journal des Debats of yes
terday i* a copious dillusion of gall against the
I listed State*. It smacks of Professor Chcva
|tcr’**pfocn. There is a terrible array of the
mischiefs w ith which Great Britain could visit our
Inion in the event of a war—bombardments,
**rvtfo insurrection*, blockade* of all ports, de
traction of the domestic manufactures by the
rn;o\vrish!uent of the people, and all the ills on
which the British press has deSbanted for the last
►tv months by way of intimidation. According
t *th- Deb its, however the storm which ambitious,
e liens American demagogues lalwired to raise,
in the hope of riding ill the whirlwind,” would
Iv averted by the alarms cf the seaboard for all
piqw.lv and trade, and of the \Mbstern States
1r tvHii their domestic and forcmti markets.—

Mr-John Quincy Adams is next bitterly rebuked
and disparaged for bis speech on the Oregon
That speech is the more obnoxious as
it pro Luced a deep impression—a sudden, strange
sensation throughout Europe. The Southern

Now, if we only get one half’ the harbors in De
F oca’s Btraits, and are wholly excluded from the
Columbia, a great injury will lie done to those of
our countrymen who have hitherto enjoyed the
use of both. But if tlie harbors which are given
to us lie the worst, then we arc both injured and
insulted at once by the arrangement. Our object,
wc re peat, js not extent of territory. We wish
to have our territory accurately defined, in order
to prevent heartburnings and quarrels between
the colonists of tlie two nations. But wc contend
only for the joint use of those privileges which
have always been enjoyed in common by both
nations, and the exclusive possession of which
wc feci that we have as much right to, a3 our
competitors, and are more able to enforce, if we
sochoosfe. But we are unwilling to provoke a
war which wc know would lie unnatural, and
hope may be unnecessary. We are willing to
cede the title of sovereignty and dominion over
the greater part of the Oregon. We only require
that the commercial advantages of the country be
continued to us. We will not give up to the Uni
ted States places ‘restored’ to us by Spain. We
will not renounce our right to participate in the
navigation of that great river which, if not dis
covered first, was certainly traced furthest by our
own people.* The joint navigation of the Col
umbia, the right of harbors on the coast, and the
right of traffic for the H udsons Bay servants on one
bank of the river, arc, we,think, demands neither
unjust nor extravagant. Nor do we think that
their concession would be incompatible with the
reserved sovereignty of the United States in the
districts which are washed by the waters of the
Columbia.”
Some of your journals suppose the Times to be
the organ of the British Government on the
Oregon question. It has been only that of* the
Hudson Bay Company, which, to be sure com
munes and weighs with the Government.
We have just received tidings by Havre to the

A telegraphic despatch announces that Sir
Robert Peel has triumphed, so fur, in the House
of Commons, by a majority of ninety-seven. It
is still opined that there will be a dissolution;
that Sir Robert Peel will retire after the election ;
that the Whigs, under Lord John Russel*, will
grasp the helm; and even that Lord Palmersto i
will get the Department of Foreign Affairs. Be
cautious, therefore, in repudiating this Lord as a
firebrand, and be not alaimed. Lord Jo in Rus

ert Feel—from the vv hig council—that Le must
hasten to adjust the O egon matter according to

MAIL ROUTE TO OREGON.
The Committee on the Post Office and Post
Roads in the Senate of the United States, liavo
reported in favor of establishing a mail route te
the Oregen Territory.
The American population in Oregon is esti
mated at ten thousand; of the number employed
in the service of the Hudson’s Bay Company
we have no estimate. It is believed to be due
to the ten thoueand Americans in Oregon that
they should have the facilities of communication
and correspondence with their friends and rela
tives on ;his side of the Rocky Mountains.
Another consideration, which is of great im
portance, relates to the trading interest of our
people in the Paciliic. According to some es
timates our whaling vessels alone in that ocean
exceed in number six hundred, and give employ
ment to forty thousand men. By means of a
regular mail route to Oregon an expeditious mode
of communication would be had with this great
commercial interest. The mouth of the Colum
bia would become the point at which the ships
in the Pacific would touch to receive advices by
the overland route and to communicate intelli
gence by the same route to the merchants of the
Atlantic cities. -Nay, the great means of Euro
peon correspondence with the Pacific, China,
and tlie East Indies would pass by this very
route. s
The report of tlie Committee says;
It is probable, however, that the greatest ad
vantage to this country, which a mail route to
the Oregon will produce, will be the immediate
and ultimate effects which it will have in
strenglitning the bond* of friendship and uiion
between the people of the East and the West;
in affording the means of acquiring information
of the Oregon, so as to promote emigration to
those regions, and ultimately to control the vast
trade of the Pacific ocear. As an agricultural
country, when compared with the -valley of the
Mississippi, it is probable that the Oregon may
be considered of minor importance. Asa man
ufacturing countay, with its unlimited water
{tower, it will 1 , when the population becomes
dense, be of more importance; but both these
together are of hut little importance to the Uni
ted States when compared with the gigantic
maritime and commercial power that must, in
the nature of things^soon grow up on the shores
of the north Pacific, should it be inhabited by
the enterprising people of this country.
The trade and commerce of six hundred mil
lions of people, about three-fourths of the whole
population of the globe, is nearly as convenient
to the month of tlie Columbia as the trade of
Europe is te New Yark, The centre of the
valley of the Mississippi is nearly as convenient
to the trade of the Pacific as it is to that of the
Atlantic. The vast commerce that now exists,
and must grow much greater, will nurture and
support many hundreds and thousands of sea
men, who, while they spread over the Pacific
with the commerce of three-fourths of the
world, will have their homes among the high
mountains of Oregon, and their affections placed
on the people of the United .Stales. To secure
this trade and this great maritime power, the
government ol” the United States should lose no
time in taking all the steps necessary to facihate
emigration, and. extend-the protection and bene
fits of our laws to that country. The establish
ment of a maii route t > the Pacific will be one ot
the incipient steps, and one o/ tlie most impor
tant that can at this time be taken.
Not having seen a copy of the Report entire
we do not know what particulars are recommen
ded as to the mode of conveyance for the Oregon
mail. Col. Benton suggested in the Senate
some time ago that a part of the force of moun
ted riflemen to be raised for guarding the route
to Oregon, might be employed as couriers to
convey the mail. They cauld go in detachments
of five or six, well armed and mounted; at reg
ular stations on the route fresh men and horses
would be kept ready for their relief; and thus,
without intcrai’ssion, the whole distance coukl
be speedily travelled. The land route might be
considerably shortened by having small and
swift steamers to run as far as possible towards
the head waters of the Platte, and to communi
cate with the overland couriers.— Buie. Am.

FEROCIOUS ATTACK OF A MANIAC.
On Sunday morning, between six and seven
o’clock, a servant in the act of opening the house
of Mr. McDuffie, on Pennsylvania avenue, near
the Capitol, in this city was attacked by a white
man with an open clasp-knife. The boy re
treated into the house, hurried up stair.?, and
threw open the door to the room of Caot. ham
say, of the U. S. Navy. He entered the room,
the man rushing in alter him. Capt. R. discov
ered at a glance that he had to encounter a ma
niac, in a tcrrrible paroxysm of excitement, and
laboring, as it arterwards proved, under mania
notu. The Captain jumped out of bed as the
demented man was about to leap upon. Juhv~
They met, and the Captain was fort unate enough
to seiie tiie wrist of his hand holding the kmie,
He soon disengaged himself, arid indicted sever
ed wound- ‘’.non the left temple and check before,
Captain R. could again secure him. In the
mean time his sons Wadsworth Douglass and
David Ramsay came to his assistance. They
were attacked indiscriminately. Wadsworth was
wounded in eight places about the head, neck,
and breast. In the neck his wound was of such
extenf that he nearly lost his life by a division of
the carotid artery. The second son was also
wounded in the neck, but not deeply. Luckily
they got possession of his knife at a most critical
moment; for both the father and the eldest son i
now became faint from loss of blood. He was
now secured, and handed aver to the city police.
A female servant also had one of her fingers near
ly bitten off by this maniac.
Too much credit cannot be bestowed upon
the gallant captain and his sons for their gener
ous conduct in merely securing, without injuring
this unfortunate man. We understand his name
is John T. Tucker, and that he is a merchant
from the South.
We are happy to be informed by a friend who
saw Capt. Ramsay on” Monday,'that all are doing
very well with him. We trust he may have no
more such morning visiters.
BRE/VDSTUFt’S IN EUROPE.
The following items arc published in the
Washington Union:
Extract from a communication, received at the
Department of state, dated Stoc/cholm, Feb
ruary 17, 1816.
“It is now feared that the hoped for exemp
tion of Sweden from the famine that is scourging
northern Europe will not be realized. Around
Stockholm, indeed and in southern Sweden, there
is at present no great scarcity of provisions; but,
during the past two weeks, accounts have
reached the government of great distress in the
nort rem provinces. This will occasion, how
ever, no abatement of the tariff upon foreign
grain. It is probable, however in consequence
of the high price of flour, that a few cargoes of
American breadstuff’s would yield good returns.”
Extracts fros i a despatch under date of January
1, 1846, received at the Department of State
from the U liicd States consulate at Odessa,
“ The weather has been remarkably fine and
dry for some time past, and until the present
momem, very little frost, and as yet little snow,
neither here nor in the immediate neighborhood,
which is absolutely neces. „ry for the security of
the next crop. Freights have been considerably
elevated for some time past in consequence of
the scarceity of shipping, and the late demand
for grain from Holland, Belgium, and the ports
of the Mediterranean.
“ The number of ships of different flags, which
have entered these ports in the course of last
year, amounts to 1,202, and the departures to
1,191; leaving port in only 11 sail. The quan
tity of grain - now on hand amounts to about 854
chet (100 chet being equal to quarters Eng
lish,) tlie price of which was, but a few weeks
back at (a troub’-e to 74 cents) pe*
chet; but has lately receded to the present quota
tion for want of demand from abroad.”
Extract from a despatch, under date of Constan
tinople, February 7, 1846* received ut the De
partment of State.
“ The inhabitants of the European and Asi
atic provinces are suffering greatly from the
want of grain. Its exportation from any part
of the empire, until next harvest, has been strict
ly prohibited, and that which yet remains in
south Russia, (where the crops have also failed
from want of rain,) is greatly increased in val
ue, and hoarded up with a hope of advanced
prices in England in case of a favorable change
in the corn-laws.”

Dear Sir, —Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cher

I was‘obliged to give up business, leave my bench

Charleston, April 4.
Cotton. —ln our review of the previous week
we reported the Upland market as having closed
at a reduction of an | to Ic. in consequence of
the unfavorable advices which reached us by the
last steamer from the other side; but since that
time factors have exhibited a good deal ot firm
ness, and it will be seen that tne market had ear
ly recovered its former position. On Saturday
last there was a fair demand for the article, but
purchasers were soon convinced that it
to be had on similar terms as St the close ot the
preceding week, and limited their transactions to
some 836 bales; and throughout Monday the
operations were also light, as the one party were
contending for prices which the other were un
wil’ ng to give—sales 950 bales. After an un
successful effort on the part of buyers to bring
holders to terms, the former made their appear
ance early on Tuesday, and during the day oper
ated with much spirit, for atthe close of business
3500 bales were tone been soli,
and the prices current at the receipt of the Hi
bernia,B accounts had been re-established. On
Wednesday and Thursday the market was quiet,
as the sales in the two days did not reach 1000
bales, owing partly to the inclement state of the
weather, but more particularly to the stringent
prices demanded. Yesterday was a also quiet
day, as the sales did not exceed 750 bales, but
the market closed very firm, at our quotations,
which were the rates current just previous to the
arrival of the Hibernia's accounts. The aggre
gate operations of the week sum up 8896 bales,
against the receipt in the same time of 4748 bales.

Cotton. —The experience of another month
has proved beyond a question the fallacy of the
early estimates as to the extent of tha crop.—
with advancing prices in all the markets at the
South, with good navigable rivers, with every
inducement indeed for planters to hurry their
crops to market, the receipts during the moHth
of A/arch have continued to fall off until the de
ficiency in the receipts, at all tlie ports, up to the
latest dates, as compared with last year, amounts
to 363,328 bales; and if the statements from
South-Carolina, Georgia, A1 bama and Florida,
are to be relied upon, there will be in those States
an increasing deficit as the season draws to a
close.
By reference to our subjoined review of the
markets, it will be seen that prices have advan
ced in the ports, and that large tra .sactions have
taken place; we remark, howe .er, that but a
small proportion of these sa es have been made
for England, and also that a large share of the
business transactions in the South, has been on
Northern and Eastern (domestic) account, while
considerable purchases have been made by local
speculators.
On the 19th inst. we received per Hibernia,
Liverpool dates to 4th inst. and contrary to gen
eral expectation that the price of cotton in that
market was about £d.- lower than on the depar
ture o * the 4th Feb. steamer, the immediate
cause of which was the extreme pressure on the
money market, in consequence of the withdrawal
of a large portion of the circulating medium of
Great Britain as deposits for rail road schemes. —
These accounts at once stopped the operation of
speculators, and our market for the remainder of
the week was brought to a stand, some few sales
towards the close being effected at a decline of 1
or fc; the sales for the week were only 5,000
bales. The week ending 28th inst. opened with
the same dull feeling, still holder; were unwil
ling to submit to any decline of moment; some
few sales were made at a reduction of jc. from
the highest point; towards the end, however,
sp : nners opened with more freedom, and the
market closed after sales of 3500 bales, with a
better feeling and an upward tendency; prices on
the better qualities are about the same, and on
the lower grades £c. below those current on the
arrival of the Hibernia. The sales yesterday
were about 500 bales.

S3OO REWARD. .
LOST Os stolen, from my plantation on tiic
Chattahoochee River, 6 miles below Eu
faula, a very likely negro child, near three years
old. He was missed from the yard late in the
•evening of the 24th March, a thorough search
was made that night and for several successive
days without discovering a trace of his footsteps,
which induces the opinion that he may have keen
stolen, the circumstance of two men being seen
on the same day in the woods near the settlement,
also, favors that opinion.
He is a thick set, full-faced child, rather how--
legged, and had a thick bushy head of hair, and
I think a large scar upon his wrist produced by a
burn. His name is Reuben, perhaps he might
answer to it. If he be stolen, I will pay the
above reward for the apprehension of the thief;
and if he has been sold I will pay the purchaser
the amount he paid for him, and all expense for
furnishing me with the information, I will also
pay any reasonable demand for any intelligence
communicated to me, or to Mr. Thomas Lowry,
near Kufaula, Alabama, which may lead ta a dis
covery. JOHN H. HOWARD.

PRESENTMENTS
Os the Grand Jury of Meriwether County, at
the February Term, 1846.
THE Grand Jurors, selected and sworn for
the county of Meriwether, at February
Term, 1546, in closing their labors, beg leave to
make the following presentments :
We have examined the books belonging to the
Superior Clerk’s office, both as kept by the former
clerk, (R. M. Adams) and the present incumbent,
and have found them neatly and kept,
and all business pertaining m said office brought
up in a regular and business-like manner, highly
creditable to said officers.
We have examined the books belonging to the
office of the Inferior Court, through Levi M.
Adams, Esq.,,v;h.afßakcs the following statement
to be correct, to-wit: that owing to Mr. Gresham’s
bad heal til, (the former clerk,) the books are not
brought up ; that he is conversant with the books
and office, and knows of nothing appertaining to
said business but that was correct.
We have also examined the books belonging to
the Court of Ordinary and the County Treasury,
and find them neatly kept.
We also have in our power to say to our coun
ty fello v-citizens, that our Tax Collector has paid
into the Treasury SISOO 00, which is satisfactori
ly accounted for by that officer with the proper
-vouchers,.and further find the amount of s6l 38
in that officer’s favor.
We havee'xamined the County Jail, and find it
much out of repair, and in consequence thereof it
is almost impossible for the Jailor to keep it in
such order as necessity requires. The Court
House wants a partial repair, as regards the steps,
blinds and glass, and we recommend that it shall
be made the duty of the clerks of the Court to
.take charge of the Court House, and see that it is
not abused in the manner as heretofore. We re
commend that each of the officers have a key to a
door below, and keep the same locked as the case
We urge the propriety of attending to
this immediately,
Werecommend thattwelve and a half percent
be laid on the State tax, to be appropriated solely
to the education of the poor children; and that
.twelve an<i -uhalf per cent, be levied on the State
tax, for county proses.
In order, to facilitate the collection o£ coujFiJ
claimsi-in the-shape of order*,, kojpuU miff fines,
we recommend that the Clerks of the Superior
and Inferior Courts be instructed to give their at
tention and assistance to the collection of them,
|and all other claims due the county.
; We cannot pass by unnoticed, the evil that is
amongst onr citizens by a class of peo
ple who are familiarly known as idlers and loafers
on, and about our villages and grog shops, who
have no visible means of supporting themselves
and families... We call upon the pfoper officers to
their respective duties iit bringing them
.before the proper tribunal.
We present the bad condition of the Roads in
the county generally, and particularly the public
Jroads in the 3d district.
We recommend that a list of insolvent tax pay
ers be furnished the Justices of the Peace in the
respective districts, and that those officers be re
quired to reject every voter at the polls who has or
Imay refuse to pay all taxes due from him to the
‘State and county.
We have examined our County Tax Collector’s
books, and have allowed him the following in
solvent lista, that is to say, $122 10 on the State
itax, also on the sum* of $99 90 on the county tax.
Ih conclusion, we cannot take leave of his Ilon
"or, Edward Y. Hill, without expressing opr entire
approbation of the able, energetic and decisive
;manner in which hejias discharged the important
duties that devolved on him as Judge of the Supe
rior Court. We also beg leave.to tender our most
sincere thanks to Solicitor Augustus C. Ferrell,
.for his very courteous behavior towards this body
during the present term, and also for the able and
very energetic manner in which he has discharged
his duty as Solicitor General of this Circuit.
We also request that our presentments be pub
lished in the Columbus Enquirer, and Times, once
in each.

PRESENTMENTS
Os the Grand Jury of Talbot County, at the
March Term. 1846.
TTE the Grand Jurors duly sworn for this
’ Term of the Court, beg leave to offer the
following Presentments:
The recent escape of one of our prisoners,
proves our Jail to be in an insecure condition,
and consequently, we recommend the construe
tion of an Iron cage of sufficient size to contain
three or four men.
Upon examination of our county Treasurer’s
book for the year 1845 ; we find he has collected
fifteen hundred dollars-, ($1500) and paid out a
corresponding amount agreeable to vouchers.
And during the time he was in office, he has col
lected. ($0,275) nine thousand two hundred and
,seventy:five dollars, and has paid out a corres
ponding amonnt.
Upon examination of Estray Bock, wc find the
following Justices of the Peace defaulters, John
W. Ostew, Dickson Cincton, and H. J. G. Wil
liams.
We respectfully and earnestly recommend to
the Hon. Inferior Court to appoint a committee of
two or three suitable persons to examine thorough
ly and carefully the books of the county Treasurer
of the poor and common school fund,. Tax Re
ceiver and Collector, and the Clerk of the Inferior
Court,as far back as the lastjsettiemcnts ordered by
the Court, and make a faithful report, as early as
:practicable, and furthermore, that this committee
be paid.
1 And furthermore, we recommend that the vari
,ous officers of the county, w-ho-have left office, he
compelled to file forthwith all the papers now in
.hand, in their respective offices.
We allow the Tax Collector for the past year
two hundred and ninety seven dollars and fifty
cents, ($297- 50) on his insolvent list.
We recommend that the Clerk of the Inferior
Court furnish the managers of each precinct with
a list of defaulters in tax, and earnestly request
that they be vigilant in enforcing the law at our
general elections, in regard to taxes.
To his Honor Judge Alexander, .we. express our
entire approbation of the dignified and courteous
manner in which he has discharged his arduous
duties.
Likewise, we tender our thanks to the Solicitor
General for his courtesy and polite attention to
this body. CHAPPELL COX, Foreman.

-C\- help to a man—Kites rise against, not

nothing. No man ever worked his voyage any

wants, and must have, to be good for anything.
