Whilst our Sea Coast is fur nifhing uncommon examples of attention to the making of Salt, especially on Cape Cod, and whilst Mr. Briggs of Chatham, has difeovered much ingenuity in furmfning the Glauber and Epsom salts, and in inftrudling his Neighbours, we are happy to karn that the interior is very a bundantly furnifhed with means to profit from, their natural riches. At the Canandaigua fait springs has been made in 1803, about 90 thousand bushels of fair, but in 1804 it had amounted to 138 thousand. • Phil.

M. WADDEL. Abbeville , S. C. July i 3 1805. 3 Messrs. Printers, .1 OBSERVE a publication of Mr. H. G. Walker's in your Paper of the 6th inst. where I am accufed.of frauds in obtain ing from him a Note for Four Hundred and twenty-three dol lars—l am concerned, net that I think it will injure my reputa tion where lam known;, but for the evil spirit and the design which the publication difeovers. That the Public may determine propei ly between us, I have thought it my duty to give the following statement: , . , On the 12th December last, I fold the Negroes ofS. Elling ton's Estate; after the Lie of them, I offered at Public Auc tion a Negro Man, and dated that he had ran-away, for which he was fold. This, I have no doubt, is remembered by a number of gentlemen that were then prefer.:. Mr. Waiker be came the pur chafer—and be cause the Negro left him as he had done me, he cells the pub lic I am guilty of fraud. . . SAMUEL WATKINS.
