From the Knoxville Register THE TWINS. “/ will tell it you ns ’twits told to me." In the autumn of I St!s, I had occasion to visit the town of N , beautifully situated on the Connecti cut river. My business led me to the house of B , a lawyer of three-score and ten, who was resting from his labors and enjoying the fruits of a life strenuously and successfully devoted to his profession. His draw ing room was richly furnished and decorated with seve ral valuable paintings. There was one rm >ng them that strongly attracted my attention. It represented a mother with two beautiful children, one in cither arm, a light veil thrown over the group, anil one of the children pressing its lips to the cheek of the mother. ‘This,’ said I, point ing to the picture, is very beautiful—pray sir, what is the subject?’ ‘lt is a mother and her twins,’ said lie, •the picture in itself is deemed a tine one, hut I value it more for the recollections which are associated with it.’ I turned my eye upon 1$ ; he looked communica tive, and l asked him for his story. ‘Sit down,’ said he, ‘and l will tell it.’ We accordingly sat down, and he gave me the following narrative: “During the period of the war of the revolution, there resided in the western part of Massachusetts, a farmer by the name of Stcdinan.— He was a man of substance: descended from a very respectable English family, well educated, distinguished for great firmness of character in general, and alike remarkable for inflexible integrity, and steadfast loyalty to the king. Such was the reputa tion he sustained, that even when the most violent an tipathies against royalism swayed the community, it was still admitted on all hands that farmer Stcdinan tiiough a tory was honest m hisopinions and firmly believed them to be right. “The period came when Burgoync was advancing from the north. It was :rtime of great anxiety with Loth the friends and foes of the revolution, -and one which called forth the highest exertions. The patriotic mili tia flocked to the standard of Gates and Stark, while ma ny of the tories resorted to the quarters of Burgoyne and Baum. Among the latter was Stcdinan.— He had no sooner decided it to be his duly, than he took a kind, farewell of his w ife, a woman of uncommon beauty, gave h.s children, a twin boy and girl, a long embrace,, then mounted his horse and departed. He joined himself to the unfortunate expedition of Baum, arid was taken with other prisoners of war by the victorious Stark. lie did not attempt to conceal his name or character, and both wora >‘■><>ll discovered and he was accordingly conunitti and o er- on as ii traitor. —Tue j il in which lie wascoufin t;i, vs in t“i-■ Wi stern part of .Massachusetts, and near -a t rmm is eo.r! : on.

In vain they expostulated wi urn; m vatu they represented to him that his life was at stake. His reply was, that ho was a true man, and a servant of King George, and that ho would no. creep out of a hole at night, and sneak away from the rebels, to save bis neck trout the gallwos. Finding it altogether fruitless to attempt to move him, his friends left Inin with some expressions of spleen. “The time at length arrived for the trial of the prison er. The dist nice to where the court was sitting at that time was about sixty miles.—Stedinan remark) and to the sheriff', w c.i hecai-.e to attend him, that it would save souk: expense and inconvenince, if he could be permit ted to go alone and on f.wt. ‘Arid suppose,’ said the sheriff‘you should prefer your safety to your honor, uud leave me to seek you in the British eamp!’ ‘I had thought,’ said tho farmer, reddening with indignation, ‘that I was spiakiug to one who knew me.’ ‘I do know you indeed,’said the sheriff, ‘i spoke but in jest; you shall have your way. Go, and on the third day I shall expect to see you at I—) -. The farmer departed and at the appointed time Jm: placed himself in the hands of the sheriff'. “J was now engaged eg his counsel. Stedinan insist ed before the court upon telling Ins whole story; and w hen I would have taken advantage of sonic technical poults, he sharply rrhukeu me ai.d told me he had not employed me to prevaricate, hut only to assist him in telling the tiulli. I never heard such a display of sim ple integrity. It was affecting to witness h.s loie ol plain unvarnished truth, elevating him above every oth er consideration, and presiding in his breast as a senti mriUeven superior to the love of life. “I saw the tears usorc than Sncc sprijgiiig to the ; eyes of liis judges; never before or since, lur e I felt such a.i interest in a client. I p ! ea<l for him as 1 should have pieadeu for my own life. I drew tears, but I could not sway the judgment of stern men, controlled more by sense of duty than Uie compassionate promptings ot hu manity. Stcdinan was condemned. I told him tnere was a chance of pardon if he would ask it. I drew up a petition and requested him to sign it, hut he refused, ‘i have done,’salt! no, ‘what I thought my duty. 1 can ask pardon <.i ‘Jo- and u.y King, Uit ii would be hypo crisy io ask forgiveness of these men for an action I should repeat were I again placed ill similar circumstan ces. No! ask me not to sign that petition. If what you call the cause of American freedom, requires the blood of an honest man, for the conscientious discharge of what he deemed bis duty, let me be its victim. Go to the judges and tell them I place not my fears nor my nopes iu til. ui.’ It was in vain that I pressed the sub ject, and I went away in despair. “(An returning to my house, 1 accidentally called on an acquaintance, a young man of brilliant genius, the sub ject of a passionate predihction lor painting- This led mm frequently to take excursions into the country tor the purpose of sketching such objects and fccnes as were interesting to him. i found him silling at ease, giving the last touches to the picture which attracted my attention. He asked my opinion of it. ‘lt is a fine picture’ said I. ‘is it a fancy picture, or are they por traits/’ ‘They are portraits,’said he, ‘and save ptrhaps a little embellishment, they arc striking likenesses ot the wife and children of youi unfortunate client, Stcd man. In the course of my rambles, l chanced to call at his own house in II . I never saw a more hi-auti. ful group. The mother is one of a thousand, and the tw ins are a pair of <?herubs.’ “Tell me,’said I, laying my hand on the picture,‘fell me arc they true and faithful portraits of the w ife and chil dren of Steelman!’ My earnestness made him stare. He assuretl me as far as he could he permittc i to judge ofliis own productions, they were striking representations. I asked no further questions. I seized the picture and hurried with it to the prison where my client was con fined. 1 found him sitting, his face covered with his hands and apparently wrung by keen emotion. I plac ed the picture in such a position that he could not fail to see it.—l laid the petition on the table by his side; and left the room. In half an hour I returned. The farm er grasped my hand, while tears stole down his check, Ii is eyes glanced first on the petition. He said notlii ng, hut handed the latter to me. I took it and left the apart ment. He had put his name to it. The petition was granted and Sledman set at lihcrtv.” [From a Long Island (2V. I'.) Paper.] LOW PRICE OF NEWSPAPERS. In England every newspaper is required to be stamp ed and to pay a heavy duty to the government; which brings the price so high that the common people cannot obtain them for their families. Every advertisement also pays a duty to the government. In this country weekly newspapers are froin'onc dol lar and a half to two dollars and a half per year, being Irom three to five cents per week. Each paper costs tuc printer before it is printed one cent. He therefore obtains trom two to five cents for his editorial duties 6r for printing and distributing. This is extremely low, and no similar quantity of print and paper can be afford ed so low. It is the price paid for advertisements, which keeps our newspapers alive and but for which they could not, in some instances, be afforded at twice the price. Thus the readers of newspapers get the cheapest of all possible reading; and as respects common intercourse in life, the best. There are, happily, but few persons in this country, who cannot afford to spend four or five cents a week for the amusement of themselves and their families. How ever numerous a family may be, the satisfaction derived from a newspaper runs through the whole; and is often ddfused through the neighborhood. What father can deny his family this cheapest of all gratifications, the most pure and pleasing source of in telligence, which impresses good sentiment and good language which fit them for life, and give solid informa tion as lasting as life itself? It is sometimes the case that two families will unite m taking one news-paper, and in paying the small price tj the printer. This is well where the families are in very low circumstances; but not otherwise, for the fol lowing reasons: Ist. The paper is taken away during half the week,and all the family do not get a chance to read it, which is particularly important as rqspccts the children—lid. Only one of the families can keep the pa per in regular files, which is an object of greater impor tance than many imagine, as business or absence will sometimes prevent some members of the family from reading the paper during the week in which it is prin ted, and they thusentirely loose tlie reading of such pa pers. * * * ' * * * * AID IN’ BUSINESS. Whatever may he a man’s calling in life, a newspa per aids his business. II he is a farmer, lie will see im provements in plov ' top-, manuring, and cultivating Ins ground—the o s: anon..: -the best f: cds—succession of crops—improved machines. Tile advertisements will aiso shew him where lie can best buy and sell. Me cnanics will see improved machinery.—Merchants will sec articles for sale—some things wanted and others of fered. A milk man not long since, lost a bargain at an auction, which would have paid for Ids paper ten years, merely by not taking the paper in which the auction was adiertiscd. lie came and subscribed for the pa per and declared he would take it as long as he lived. No time to read New.epapcrs. All men will find time for every tiling that is gratifioa. lion for them; and hence the complaint of ‘no time,’ is in fact no taste for newspapers. Every man has time to read a weekly paper, during a rainy day, or a long eve ning or sometime while waiting for his meals. If he is <ot a slave, he certainly can find time to improve his mid, 11 is children undoubtedly have titno enough to learn vice, and if he is not ambitious to ra.s : them above a : level ol ignorance,they will certainly prove vicious. 1 lie most industrious pccpic always find time to read, it is tile lazy and idle only who have no time, it is mys terious how many people employ their time while not it their business, and especially sotne'who do very little business of any kind whatever. Such persons area dunk in creation, and society feels no loss when they drop away. THE STAGE OFFICE OI Peek & tVelfurd’s Line of *tag«>, slops at TRAVELLER’S INN, (BY JAMES MABRY.)

He owes the amount of the Lottery - ; and from the position of some of his creditors, he 4s compelled to take the unsold Tickets.

He his placed thb drawing when the Tickets are soid or most certainly the first of next January. It is the last no tice he shall itiake, unless he draws before that time. The drawing shall be final. It is due to those who have bought Tickets to be informed that the money is in the hands of respectable Agents, and iu the hands of the Treasurer of the Sunerintendants.

The interest which is manifested throughout the State, to be possessed of information relating to the interesting sec tion known as the Cherokee country, and the importance of all information that can bo obtained in regard to its geo graphical position—the quality of its land—its boundaries, water courses, roads, &c. has induced the publishers hereof, at the entreaties of many persons, by industrious application, and at considerable expense, to undertake the publication of this little volume. They are flattered with the hope, that its usefulness will be appreciated by all who are interested in the acquirement of tliis important portion of our State. The publishers feel assured that they do not over estimtna the information it imparts, and the great convenience apa facility, by which it can be acquired; and, altho’ there may be inaccuracies in its descriptive character, (from the possi bility that entirety correct returns were not always made by the District Surveyors) yet, as it is the most correct that can be obtained, without a personal know ledge ofevery lot, it must be considered the best information the nature of the case admits of. Os one fact, the reader is guaranteed, that this Book Wears a correct and official stamp—as it was copied with accuracy from tho Numerfcal Books, now of file in the Executive Department of the State, after those Books were thoroughly examined by the late Land Lottery Commission ers. The accuracy and fidelity of the quality of each lot, wai ascertained, by especial reference to the field notes of the District Surveyors, and their detached plats. To these desiderata, may he stated, that the No. of each lot, in its district and section, by whom drawn, iti whose captains dis trict, aud in what county, are equally, and .entirely authentic. It must be a desirable object to both the. drawer, and the purchaser, to have a Book of the kind we herewith submit to the public; as it embodies in a compressed and in a portable form, all the memoranda information which both purchaser and seller could have, without occular knowledge or from information dearly purchased, if procured otherwise. The Book will contain a Numerical list of all the lots drawn in the different sections of the Land Lottery, excepting such as are returned third quality ; and if any of the third quality has any improvement on it, such lot also will be embraced. To each lot, will be affixed a letter a, b, or f, w hich desig nates til-: quality; a for the first, h for the second, and e for tiie third ; and have also attached the Nos. of acres improved —the drawer’s name, the district in which he gave in as tortun •• drawer, and the county in which he resides, and the No. ot his lot, and tho district aud section in which it is loca ted. \Y henever a district is not represented particularly, the reader will learn that all the lots iu said district, (as in the slh and other districts,) arc returned third quality—To each district its boundary is stated, with some brief, but appli cable remarks. The publishers forbear any further exordium of this, their “little effort '—prefering that its merit and usefulness shall epoch more audibly its own praise. Such as it is, (aud it is hoped, it will be pronounced good) is respectiuily dedicated to the people, of Georgia, by THE PUBLISHERS.
