It provides for negotiation in the did in stance ; and a Ruffian Minister is dated to have gone to M ian to offer the emperor of Ruflia’s mediation to Bonaparte, with the scheme of pacification. Ex trail of a letter from Mr. Ben jamin Allen , who removed from Woodstock the past year > to his friends in said town, dated at St. Charles Diftrift, (Upper Louisiana) March 13, 1805. ct When I arrived at this place I found mod of our friends in health, but fome of them hive been sick more than half their time since they came here.- 4 You wanted me to give you my opinion of this country, and ad vice reipedung your coming here ; which I will endeavor to do according to the bed of my judgment, impartially . The ac counts which you have hereto fore had of this country, were but a romance. —One third of this land is calculated for the fined of farms ; one third may be fettled, but timber and water are lacking; the other third can never be fettled for want of timber, having too much water. There have been fix weeks of good fltdding since I came here : the river catted Greaver, has been frozen over ten weeks, pafiable for horses. I think that hay is very needful here, and we have the bed of grass, as good as that by the name ot coarfc timothy. The inhabi tants tell me this has been an uncommon winter for snow and cold weather. This is a fine country to raise the bed of cat tle, but it requires induttry.— I think, that if one of your good farmers was here and could en joy his health, he would gun property very fad; for the fame labor that you take to gain 10 dollars, we can gain 20. It has been laid, people can live here with very brrle labor: I grant it, but they mud live poor and dress ragged, for the want of health prevents the;r labor i; a great decree. As for v.iut coming here, I can lay no more than this, that I, advise every one who has a farm & alarge fa mily, to be contented to keep it; but a young man with a final! family, can do well here provi ded he has his health. I can buy land, e ; gbt or ten miles from this place, for fifty cents per acre, lying on the frontiers; but the Indians have been mif chieveus there ; lad September, a young man and three boys went into the woods after their horses, an<J found them, and on their return were fired upon by Indians hid by the path, who killed the orv, j. and one horse, and afterward mapped the gun at . - Vj man, but miffed fire, ana *e elcaped. There has since been a treaty conclu ded with them ; it took place about ten miles from this place. People who to this coun try formerly, luflered greatly tor want of proper antidotes against she prevailing sickness “peculiar to this place, viz. Pe ruvian Lv . k, camphire, gum and • meric tartar, which articles be ing extremely dear; whoever thinks belt to come will do well to bring large quantities of such medicine. Bark and camphire are felling for 2.5 dollars per ounce, tartar 50 cents per puke. Pork and beef are 5 dollars per cwt. butter 25 cents per lb. fait 5 dollars for 50 ib.—The rea lon why produce is so high is, the old settlers are so lazy they will not work, which is to the great advantage of those who will. V T <* find great advantages anfing; £rc:n be...g annexed to the United States ; all imported necessaries come cheaper, and the government more agreeable —we dill hope for better times; were it not for this we fliould fink into despondency. This country lies 20 miles from the Gale, where there is an old wind-mill. The name of the town is Little Cout; the fird American court fat there since I came here—their lawyer serves for clerk and lawyer too. This is as large a town as Windsor, and beautiful in firuarion.” mrr—zz:—. —— 1 nr - ...
