XUc Irish and the Eastern Question.
Wo are told by tho New York Timet, that “ exci
ting rumors are current in regard to movements of
the Irish in tho United States, with reference to tho
war Just begun between England and Russia. It is
reported that a very extensive organisation is in pro
gress here among the Irish—that companies have
been formed, and that military exercises are constant
ly practised, with tho intention to stir u/» and aid a
rebellion in Canada, wheuovcr tho condition of nf-
fWni in the East shall seem most propotions for such
• movement. Wo havo received detailed information
of the extent of the organization, the numbers con
cerned, and even the names or the active agents in
the arrangement; but under preseut circumstances
we refralu from making it public. It is said that a
similar scheme is on foot in Ireland, and that a very-
large number of men have been euiisted for tho pro
ject.”
Are we to understand from the Times what it seems
to say, that there is in Ireland an organization to stir
op and aid a rebellion iu Canada! Or did not the
writer intend to tell us that the reported movement
in Ireland boa reference to a rebellion in Ireland ?
That the justly incensed Irish will, in one field or
another, give England trouble during the continu
ance of the war in which she has engaged, wo can
readily believe. John Mitchell has published an
address to his countrymen, having reference to the
present crisis. It is a powerful appeal. Some por
tions of it are lull of significance. It concludes as fol
lows! ,
The (act is that our ancient enemy is on tho vorge
of serious difficulties, political, military and financial
the problem to be solved is, how best to make those
difficulties critical and fatal to her power.
If there were now in Ireland awiatlonal organiza
tion like the Volunteers, or even like the Irish Confed
eration. the problem might be solved soon and easily.
It would soon become disgraceful, or even dangerous,
for any young man to enter the enemy’s services,
and tho Hire’s and drums of recruiting sergeants
would discourse their eloquent music in vain. I
know it is hard to expect such passive, but decisive
action now. Tho people are starving again; they
are starving forever; they are made to starve, for
this express purpose amongst others, that they may
be always ready to sell themselves, for bread and
clothing, to make raw material for the British servi
ce. Yet surely, any way of making a living is bet
ter than this. It they enter England’s army they
will be iightingfor famine, that it may pinch the vitals
of their children and their children’s children. They
will be fighting to make typhus fever, and ejectments,
and poor-house gruel, permanent institutions of their
conutry. Yes, they, biting their cartridges on the
I>aoubobank, will be ejecting whole villages on the
Shannon, helpless old people and infants of their own
kith and kin : on the strength of their victories in
Turkey, (if they uro unhappily victors,) juries will
be packed in Dublin for generations to come.
Lot others talk of the despotism of Russia. We
know that our Russia is England. Eugland stands
between us aud the rest of Europe. Through her
brnte moss we can neither bo seen nor be heard. So
loud aud dismal is the wail of our own island, that
wo cannot hear the groans of Polaud. Whether
Russia be an oppressor of Poland or not, wo care
little—wo only Know Poland was never so oppressed
as Inland. The one main, manifest, infallible con
clusion with us, is that in any war, whatever, when
ever, England conquers, tyranny and famine and
treachery conquer with her.
Russia, indeed, Is no friend to the people ; yet the
success of tho Russian arms would be salvation lor
the people now. A war, a good, long, thundering
war between tho sovereigns of Europe is the agency
by which the people of Europe are to be set upon their
feet; and it is against the war, not against Russia,
that our enemies takes up arms to keep the war be
yond the Pruth, beyond the Carpathians, Insido tho
gates of tho Bosphorus—anywhere fur away from
where it is wanted, is our enemy’s sole policy.
But if, by tlie kind favor of Heaven, we see Britain’s
flag and the desecrated tri-color of Napoleon tram-
{ (led and disgraced in tho East, then the war will iu-
allibly roll westward, and a new world will be born
ot its lightnings and thunders.
Every Irishman who enlists in the British force will
earn indeed his thirteen pence a day; but lie will
earn the heavy curse of his oppressed country along
with it. JOHN MITCHELL.
New York, 23d March, 1854.
Foreign Account*.
The steamship Knoxville brought vis yesterday New
York papers, of Wednesday, containing the Afn
accounts in full. The reader will find a portion of
them in another column. They are of no great inter
est. Among the reports from Spain is one to the
effect that M. Turgot, the French Minister at .Mad
rid, has been recalled, bis influence waning before
that of Hr. Soulb, tbo American Minister. It is also
staled that the Spanish Minister 1ms left London for
Madrid, indignant at the late strictures of the Eng
lish apon the Qneen ot Spain.
Holders in London of tho bonds of the Bank of Pen
sacola, guaranteed by the treaty (territory ?) of Flor
ida, were invited to meet oti the 11th iustant, to take
measures for preferring their claims on the United
States Government.
Tho London Globe of tho evening of the 10th inst.,
contains the following paragraph :
It is now understood that the Prussian Cabinet
has refused to join the alliance with the Western Puw
ns. The Vienna Cabinet in a dispatch to the French
Government, states that, in presence of the declara
tion made by Prussia, Austria requires to be very
guarded, and also requires time to enable her to ex
ercise her influence over tho Germanic Diet, so as to
establish a line of policy between the German Pow
ers in conformity with the policy of the great West
ern Powers in the question of tho East.
Thongh the English and French attempt to put tho
best face upon the matter possible, it is very clcur
that they are not satisfied with the attitude of Aus
tria and Prussia.
The insurrectionary movements among the Greeks
•till give cause of uneasiness to Turkey and her
allies. A letter from Constantinople says :
The news of the wide-spread insurrection among
the Greeks of Albania has caused much excitement
here. Many think that it Is tho signal for a general
outbreak throughout the Turkish domiuions. It
seems that the insurgents, at the commencement ot
tbo insurrection, scarcely numbered 400 men ; but so
rapidly has the disaffection spread that their numbers
have already swelled to 4,000.
The excitement In the provinco of Arta is said
bo intense. The leaders of the movement have issued
a proclamation of a highly InfiamaVory nature. It is
as follows—being translated.
We, the undersigned inhabitants of the Provinco of
Arta, desirous of patting an end to tho oppressions
and impositions of the Turkish government, as also
of avenging the insults offered to their religion, by
their Ottoman oppressors, have determined, In the
name of God and their country, to wage a war simi
lar to that of 1821, nor to cease their altucks against
their tyrants until the freedom of their country be
obtained. In making this demonstration, we hope
that the sympathies of our free brethren in Greece
will be extended to as, at the same time we expect
that oar brethren, who are crushed beneath tin
tyranny of the Turks will rally round our standard,
and fight for our altars and our homes. Our cause is
just and sacred. Let tho remembrance of our op
pression and tho weight of our wrongs silence overy
tongue against it. Shall the crescent of tho infidel
be raised above the Holy Church of God? Fly, then,
brethren, to the rcsono—strike for liberty. Your
country, yonr religion demands yonr service.
It is believed not without reason that this procla
mation will make a decided impression upon the
Greeks throughout Turkey.
Upon a full survey of the whole field of operations
and the agencies likely to bo employed on both sides,
we are brought to tho conclusion that tho prospects
of Russia are by no means so gloomy as the English
presses and their American echos would touch us to
believo.
Reported Duel.—This matter seems to be in a
mist. One report says that tho parties fought, aud
that Bbokiwbidob was woundod in the neck. Anoth

civil authorities prevented any fighting whatever.

In Durango, near Jaco, the Government forces un

given an extraordinary blow to the Indians in that
quarter. They marched upon them in tho night,
surprised them iu a canon at half-past four in the
morning, killed twenty-two of them,recovered twen
ty-live captives, and retook a large number of horses
and cuttle. Among the slain Indians were the cele
brated Camanche chief Hague and two other chiefs.
The Mexicans had only six wounded. This is the
most brilliant achievement of their Indian warfare
for fifty years past. The Generals uttributc it to the
new discipline, and the spirit of patriotism and of
honor which has lately been infused into them.
Santa Anna bus issued a decree inviting Etiropcnn

these quantities will be given to such as pay their own

Great Salt Lake City, Dec. 22,1854.
The Scientific Corps belonging to Cupt.Guunison's
surveying party—reduced to three—have taken rooms
with Mr. Blair, Attorney General of the Territory,
aud also the worthy proprietor of the •' Salt Luke
House.” Mr. B. is the relutive of F. P. Blair, of
Washington—very much the Virginian iu his man
ners, and withal an accomplished and ugrccnblc gen
tleman. Tho hoarders, with the Squire and his six
wives, pretty effectually occupy the house. Mr.
Biair told me that the Governor had twenty-six
wives, and whether lie is joking or not, I don't know,
hut certain it is that he has a deputy whose sole busi
ness it is to sec that Ids numerous little urchins get
their duo share of grub, and to count their noses
when they ure tucked up at night. The Squire was
married to two ut once last summer.
The manners and customs of these singular people
are very interesting to a stranger. They seem to be
a very happy and merry set, and perfectly sincere in
their religious opinions. I have been to their church
twice. The services are opened by a bnml of music,
which plavssometimes sacred and sometimes lighter
music. The speaker is called to the pulpit by the
President, Brigham Young, without any previous no
tice, so Unit the sermons are all extemporaneous. I
find many intelligent persons and quite good society,
generally. The police regulations nre very strict—
no druukonness or profanu swearing allowed in the
streets. Tho city itself contains about 12,000 inhabi
tants.
The Distinguished Men of Cnllntmln.
We have received from a correspondent in Califor
nia a list of the members of the Executive and Legis
lative departments of the Government of California.
John Bigler, the Governor of California, is a printer
by trade, married, and 40 years of age. The Lieut.
Governor is a merchant. A miner occupies the post
of Comptroller. The oflico of Treasurer is filled by
a physician ; and tho offices of Secretary of State,
Attorney General, Surveyor General and Superinten
dent of Public Instruction, are occupied respectively
by two lawers, a civil engineer, and a miner.
The Legislature of California comprises 114 indi
viduals, of whom 34 are Senators and 80 members of
tho House of Assembly. Of these 114, but eight are
natives of New England, three of whom are from
Vermont, two from New Hampshire, and one each
from Massucusetts, Connecticut and Maine. If there
was moro of the New England element in the Legis
lature there would be less of that intrigue and cor
ruption for which the California Legislature is noto
rious. New York has the largest number of sons—
32—in the Legislature ; 12 are natives of Kentucky,
and 10 were born in Virginia. The Legislature in
cludes among its members 31 miners, 28 lawyers,
14 farmers. 8 merchants, 7 ranchoros, 4 physi
cians, 3 civil engineers and surveyors, 2 printers, 2
traders, 1 actor and 1 brewer. There nre among them
75 marriageable bachelors, 38 who rejoice in the pos
session of a wife, and 1 who is a widower. The age
of the oldest member of the Legislature is 40 ; tlmt
ol the youngest 23.
Probably there is no State in the Union which pos
sesses so many beautiful names as California. Among
tho places from which tho members of the Legisla
ture were sent, wc find the musical names of El Do
rado, Sacramento, Sononm. Nevada, Shasta, Maripo
sa, Yuba, Napa, Ophir, Yroka, Aleinada, Colunia.

We understand an attempt was made yesterday to
burn up the Globe Hotel. Just before the boarders
were seated at the dinner table, smoke was seen is
suing from one of the rooms. It was discovered that
tho bedding was set lire to. Fortunately It was dis
covered in time, und soon extinguished without do
ing further injury. While the landlord and ono or
two of tho boarders were conversing about the occur
rence, Bmoko was seen issuing from tho adjoining
room. The bedding in this room was nlso discoverer!
to have been fired. Oil Hcnrching the adjoining room
it was found tlmt tho bedding in that also hail been
set lire to, but fortunately the match failod to its pur
pose, only charring the pillows between which it was
placed. Who the incendiary is has not been discov

Commercial View of the War.
The London Chronicle of tiie 10th of March, hns
the following : There is a long article in tho Pays ol
Paris on the Eastern question. The object is to show
that in the uppronching war tho commerce of France
nnd England have little to drend ; whilst that of
Russia, if the war should he of long duration, must
lie ruined. Tho Pays observes, tlmt every article
now supplied by Russia to the great Western Powers
can be ohtninud by them from other countries. This
is quite true. The colonies, when once they find that
the markets of Europe will take their produce, will
raise corn in sufficient abundance to supply all possi
ble wants ; aud even Mr. Cobdcn, who has raised a
lament about the interruption in the supply of tal
low, without which lie says, the steam-engines in
England cannot he kept going, will flud that from
South America, more tallow can be obtained, nnd at
a cheaper rate, than from Russia, or than he could
hnve hoped to see thrown into the English market.—
Hides, hemp, flax, and overy other production, the
snle of which 1ms enriched the nobles ot Russia, may
ho grown to any extent in otter countries, nnd the
sens will bo open for tlie transport to Europe, whilst
tlie Russian merchants will be unable to send out
their vessels even for the.supply of markets which
the wur will not close against them. All this, it is
true, will bo tho work of time; and will require
many years to effect an Jcntire change ; hut if the

inflict a dreadful blow upon the trade of Russia, and

The following copy of a dispatch from tho English
Foreign Office, in answer to an application mado by
the British Consul at Itigu, who, at the instance of
the merchants of that city, had requested informa
tion relative to " what respect would be paid by Brit
ish cruisers, in the event of wur, to bona fide British
property, the produce of Russia, if shipped on board
of neutral vessels,” was circulated at the Baltic Cof-
feo house,London, on afternoon of March 9.
Foreign Office, February 16,1854.
The Earl of Clarendon has under his consideration
your dispatch of the 2(!lh ult., enclosing a copy of a
letter from , of Riga, requesting to be informed
” what respect would be paid by British cruisers, in
the event of war, to bona fide British property, the
produce of Russia, if shipped on board neutral ves
sels.” 1 am to acquaint you, in reply, that property
of tho description in question—tho produce of Russia
and exported therefrom by and on account of a Brit
ish merchant domiciled and trading there—although
purchased before the war, nnd exported to England,
would not be respected by her Majesty’s cruisers, un
less in pursuance of a license, or some special In
structions from her Mujesty to the officers of her
navy.
By tho law and practice of nations, a belligerent
has a right to consider as enemies all persons who
reside in a hostile country, or who maintain commer
cial establishments therein ; whether these people be
by birth neutral, allies, enemies, or fellow subjects,
tho property ol such persons exported from such
countries is therefore res hostium. ami, ns such, law
ful prize of war; such property will be considered
ns n prize, although its owner is a nativo born sub
ject or tho captor’s country, and althnuj'h it may
bo in transition to that country ; nnd its being laid
on board u neutral ship will not protect the property.
You will therefore inform whom it may concern, tlint
in the event of war the property will not be protect
ed by the consular certificate, or by any othor docu
ment, but will bcliublc to capture and condemnation
as prize.

NOTES ON THE CENSUS.
Stntr of Religion In the United States—Diver
sity and number of Sorts— Proportion of
tho People Attached to Churches—Mainte
nance of the Voluntary Church.
Correspondence of the New York Daily Times.
Cincinnati, March 14,1854.
Not tho least valuable or interesting part of tho
balance of national statistic*, Is the part relating to
Roligiou. It enables us to ascertain precisely how
tho support of the Church on voluntary principles
compares with that of tho State Churches in othei
countries, nnd to ascertain nlso the rolatlvo strength
of tho religious principle in this country. In examin
ing these statistics, there Is no need of considering
tho great number of sects, separated by little more
than a name ; but wo should rather look at them in
tho light of great divisional principles. Of these
great divisional principles, I think there are, in the
general, but five, viz: Trinitarian and Unitarian,
Pupal nnd anti-Papal, Baptist and nnti-Baptlst, Epis
copal nnd anti-Episcopal, Evaugollcal nnd anti-Evan*
gclicnl. With very slight exceptions, theao divisions
embrace ull religious sects, and it will be Instructive
to look at them in that point of view.
1. As to tiik Trinity—It is generally understood
that a largo portion of tho sect called “ Christ-ians,”
and n small purt of tho Universalists, are Unitarians,
on principle. In order to be certain of not underrat
ing tlie Unitarians, I shall set down nil the 11 Christ
ians,” one-third tho Universalists, and tho Unitarians
proper, as anti-Trinitarian. In estimating the pro
portions, I shall lake the number of churches ; for. al
though that is by no means a perfectly accurate mode,
yet, it is tho best wo have. The church "accommo
dation ” is no standard nt ull. Nothing can vary
more thnn that does iu reference to the number who
attend. The statement of Trinitarian and Unitarian,
then,stands thus :

'• Tlioro is a melancholy pleasure,” writes Chateau

days, nnd in noting tho chunges which have taken,
place, meanwhile, in them and in ouiselves. Like
linger posts we have left behind, they serve to mark
the route we have taken through the desert of the
past.”
What a lino yet rugged pathos there la in Matthew
Bramble’s account of his rcncoulitre with Rear-ad-
mirul Bulderick—whom he hail not set eyes on since
they were lads together, and who was now '• meta
morphosed into an old man with a wooden leg and a
woulher-beuten face,” and “ gray locks that were
truly venerable.” Says the leal-hearted old cynic-
sitting down at the tabic, where he was reading a
newspaper, I gazed at him for some minutes, witli a
mixture of pleasure aud regret, which made my heart

Aggregate of Unitarian Churches 1,271
Comparing this with the whole number of churches,
we have : Whole numbers, 38.061 ; Unitarians. 1,271.
Proportion of Unitarian, 3 per cent. This is a larger
' proportion than probably most persons suppose, hut
It is quite smull compared with the whole number of
people. The Uniteriau churcherare not so well filled
as in most other sects. Half a million, or one-fiftieth
part ol the entire population, will probably cover tho
whole Uniteriau persuasion of all sorts.
2. Papal and Anti-Papal.—The number of Ro
man Uutholics in this country can be very nearly as
certained ; for, in addition to the Census, we have
the ltoinau Catholic Almanac, with an official ac
count of their priests and churches. Bv the Census,

wc have this result: Roman Catholic churches, 1221,
whole number or churches, 38,061—about 3 per cent..
The Human Catholic churches present this remarka*
i present this remurki
ble contrast to tho Unitarians—tlmt while the former
are verv thinly attended, the latter are crowded ;
and, as Muss is attended at different hours of the day.
tlie number of people is much greater, in proportion,
than in the Protestant churches. By the Roman
Catholic Almanac for 1851,1 find that the entire Ro-
mun Catholic population is estimated at about 2,100,*
000 ; and comparing this with other data. I believe it
very nearly correct. About 1 in 12 of tlie American
people are Roman Catholic, aud about I iu 10 of the
whole population.
3. Baptist and Anti-Baptist.—The question of
Immersion makes one of the great divisional differ
ences iu the Church. The result on that question,
including all the minor sects of Baptists, is thus : Bap
tist churches, 9375 ; aggregate number of churches,
38,061: churches of Immersion, 25 percent. This
distinction is a very important one, tor the Baptists
have a close communion, which is not the case with
the other Protestant sects.
4. Episcopal and Anti-Episcopal.—This is a
question of Church government, hut a most impor
tant one ; for it is a question whether tlie Church
shall have a dominant hierarchy. It is just the same
question, as that between a political Aristocracy and
a Democracy. It is not a question whether a common
minister of tho Church is an Episcony—a Bishop ;
hut, whether a certain class of ministers, called
Bishops, shall hold power,—either in whole, or purt.
Tlie Churches which hold to Episcopal hierarchy, nre
the Roman Catholic, tlm Episcopalian, und tho Epis-
conal Methodist. In each of these the Bishop, per se,
holds a certain amount of positivo and peculiar pow
er. The aggregate and proportion of these Churches
stand thus :
Roman Catholic Churchos 1.221
Episcopalian Churches 1,469
Methodist Churches 10,000

The above three bodies arc, perhaps, os antagonist
ic to euch other as any tliut can be named ; but they
unite in the adoption of the Episcopal principle.
5. Evanoklical and Anti-Evanoi:lical.—This is
the most important distinction, for it involen two
great principles: first, the onward movement of the
Church ; nnd secondly.that movement in accordance
with tlie standard ot' Protestant Orthodoxy. Evan
gelism is the duasemination of the Gospel; but,in tho
modern language of tlm Church, it is the desHemina-
tion or a free Gospel,—without responsibility to a
special Church hierarchy, and adhering only to the
fundamentul articles of Protestant faith. Hence, it
rejects the Papal Church on ono hand und tlie Unita
rian on the other ; and its work is mainly carried on
by voluntary societies und voluntary effort. The
Evangelical Churches, so called,—ure all the Protes
tant Orthodox Churches,—although sonic of them
(jealous of voluntary societies) choose to dcsseminate
Bibles and missionaries by their own organization,
Tlie Evangelical Churches shand thus:
Presbyterian Churches
CiingrcgHtinnal Churches
Dutch Reformed Churches
fi'-rman Rclormcd Churches....
Tlireo-fourtliH Lutheran Church.
Three-fourth* Baptist Churches,
Episcopal Churches
friends’ Churches.............
Methodist Churches
Moravian Churches
Evnngelicnl Churches..,
Aggrcuiigo Churches...,
Evangelical Churches 79 per cent,
I have excluded a small portion of the Baptist und
Lutheran Churches,—the former, as opposed to all
Missions, and tho latter, as Rationalists. I have in
cluded all the Episcopalians and the Society of
Friends,—because, though acting in their own mode,
—they tiro, nevertheless, Protestant Evangelists. It
will be thus Keen, that four-ffths of tho Churches of
the United States belong to tho Protestant faith,
which is the general type of the American Church.
In this respect, they belong to the Religious Democ
racy;—which has been evidently modified by the
Political. Its great characteristics are tho lovo of
Religious Liberty and the zeal of propagandism.
In regard to the number of peoplcnttcnding church,
wo have these data. One-third of tho whole number
of people are either small children, sick, or infirm.—
These must lie excluded from the church-goers. We
then have this result:
Two-third* population, about 10,000.000
Number of churches ' 33,061
Number of people to each church 421
Now it appears there is a church provision for each
four hundred and twenty persons able to attend.
Now, .vitli this fact before ns, I sec no reason to
believe that any large number of tho American peo
ple either cannot or do not attend public worship.
On tho contrary, I believe there ia much exaggera
tion on that subject. Our cities arc the real wuste
places in regard to church worship. Neither Now-
York or Cincinnati are more than half provided with
places of worship. If we had a thoroughgoing mis
sion work done in otir cities, they would no longer lie
the great repositories of vice and impiety. Cleanse
your streets, and with them tlie hearts of yonr peo
ple, and you will have neither pestilence nor infideli
ty.
VIATOR DEL OCCIDENTE.
Married In the villago of Conneant, Ohio, Feb. 11;
by J. Q. Farmer. Esq., Mr. Elina Jones to Mrs. Delia
Swap. There is a little history connected with the
above, says the Conneaut Reporter, which may not
be uninteresting to the reader. About the close of
the last war with Great Britain t! s parties became
acquainted with each other, and in April, 1822, were
married in the comity of Genesee, N. York, against
the consent of relatives on both sides. A few weeks
prior to tho birth of their second son, Bradford, now
of this place, Mr. J. left his family for the purpose of
purchasing a piece of land, and during his absence
his wile was persuaded by her relatives to desert her
home and husband and reside with them. Mr. J. on
learning the fact, and being threatened with violence
if he attempted to claim his family, left the country
and went to sea. On his return, several years sub
sequent, ho ascertained that Mrs. J. again married,
and removed to the west. In pilliiRjon of this trans
action it should be stated tlmt the wife supposed her
former husband dead, and did receive tidings of liis
supposed loss at sea. Mr. Jones immediately return
ed to his vocation on tho sea, and from that period
until a lew weeks since, lost all tracss of his wife and
his two sons. After a space of twenty-five years he
chanced, by a mere circumstance, to learn the resi
dence of ins two sons, and wended his steps to this
place, where to his gratification, he learned that
their mother was still living and a widow,
having lost her second husband after rearing ten
children, and then residing iu Mercer, Pa. In com
pany witli his son. Mr. Jones immediately started for
the residence of the partner of his youth, who ot
onco recognized and welcomed him to her home ;
though she could not have been moro snrpriRed had
he ri*en from the grave to confront her. The trials
of the past weie recounted, the love of youth renew
ed. and after a brief courtship they were ngain pligh
ted, and tho finale is recordod at the head of this nr-
Gkorok Law’s Muskkts.—The Courricr dcs Etata
Unis, or New York, states that there is good reason
to believe that tho clipper bark Grape Shot, which
soino of tho pnners say sailed for Constantinople on
Friday, from this port, with George Law’s muskets
on board, has gone to a West India port, nnd that her
warlike rtorea are to be used in the service of tbo
Cuban Revolutionists I The same paper says tho
Grape Shot cleared “ tho Antilles,” and not for Con
stantinople.

near Natchez, Miss., sold his crop of cotton soveral

rious, astonishing nnd useful character ever communicate
to man. Also, nearly all of various recipes, instruction*,
and chances to make money, advertised in tlie vsrioai
newspapers iu the United State*, will be given, (the priced
each being $1) and nt cadi of which persons make regu
larly from $6 to $10 por day ; thus nffording so many dif
