We have often told you thai many of vou had by far too much land already but if you where us, your iuci; r.-v..r differ widely, In place of acting as though . believed our doctrine, you ore at this rnorocnt depriving your families of many of the comforts of life ia'otafr w .Duyt iraci of land orpay forono Wreaay pougut- wr which you in reality, had no peeq at an.

Some of you have not got a comfort ablo house on your premises, riot excepting the one you live in !

Your avemgc corn crop is perhaps, not more than twenty bushels to the "acre," oats fifteen, wheat five, rye four, and of potatocsybects, turnips, &c, you scarce raiso any at all the ground is too poor and yet you are buying land!! " ' ' 'T--.',","- ' But to by all pleasantry aside, large land holders do not only an injury to themselves but to the country in which they live. They by refusing to sell, prevent many sober, worthy, industrious and enterprising per sons from becoming citizens. They gather around them as tenants, a floating popula tion who do not feel, and who do not try to feel an interest in the prosperity of thecoun. try. They plant no orchards, improve no grounds because they do not expect to stay thorc. And though the inconsistency of such a course may brjlaid before them again and again, it is very hard for them to seo it. They feel in many cases little or tio inte. rest in the morals of that particular eommu nity inasmuch as they expect soon to be gone or at least know they can soon go. They care not to make roads, erect church es and school houses and to support schools all because they da not feel settled. They do not feel identified with " that particular section of the country. But give the same men .a. homestead, let them feel that they have a homo, and their views and feelings immediately change. - They catch a spirit! of improvement and ti many instances car ry it out to a most profitable extent. They - are nftn more careful of thciciiWJftjnorala. feeling that their responsibilities are greater and they are more ready to join in any mea. sure that tends to tho improvement of thoir country. But whither aro we rambling? We set out to write a paragraph or two adapted Jo tin's particular time of the year, but iostead of a parugraph, wo are about to w-ito a j-lmpter, and that too, as long aff the prayer of a certain divine we wot of.

That tea and coflfee, which aro wholly foreign, and on which only a very low duty is charged Ar revenue, have not fallen in price equally wi:h domestic goods 1 ; If the free-trado doctrines of the present day be correct, teas and coffee should have fallen and domestic good's increased in price eTlhcact isqaite to the contrary. 4. That American salt is now sold in New York for twenty ix cents per bushel o( 50 pounds. O, this abominable, wicked, ruinous Tariff! But rather, O, these hollow-hearted politicians, whoj to secure their own per. sonal aggrandizement are willing to pander to British opulence feed British paupers and neglect the true interests of their own country, and see it suffer and writhe under the torture cooqtfent upon a general stag, nation of her operative pursuits. literary Curiosity. -The Fayettevillo Ob server has received and proceeds to publish to the World " verbatim" what ho calls a " literary curiosity," and certainly it is such, particularly as it springs from near tho'centre of tho State, from Wake county. Had it "have, sprang from Buncombe, it would have been looked upon as a matter of course ; but,. coming from Wake coun ty, it is out of the question. We should like to inquire if John-horses are not scarce since tho last appointments of magistrates But Tiere it is judge for yourselves.

Twelve hundred only is the majority which it modestly claims for Gen. Sounders in that district in the coming election. It has just ascertained that tho Whigs of thatdis.

Saunders' friends are becoming alarmed, and -fear that this u fifth rate man" Miller is about to push him too hard for comfort.

FARMER, BENJ. KING, Comm. tOR TUB MtSSCNOEt. Messrs. Editors, It is presumeablo that you long since have read and thojght of the horrors of war the barbarity and wretch edness attendant thereon. You no doubt havojicard of the Seminole affray, in which, one says, in five years of that war, there was one hundred and fifty or upwards of the free people of tho United States do stroyed by this unfeeling foo ! Now this, on an overage, would m-kc thirty (yr each year i think then of the loss of thirty out of our American family every twelve months, and that too by no enemy of no udvantage to this happy family, but the re. verso! - When wo think of tho death of husbands, wives and children, whom we love, and to think that they should fall by thj hand of the savage, and bo so barbar. ously butchered by tho tomahawk, ir causes the very blood to boil in our veins ! It produced an excitement throughout all the American family, Cdngrcss made pro. vision for tho subduing .the" enemy, und relieving her suffering children. Every mother and wife wero ready, with tho offi cers of our country, to say to their hus bdnds and sons, Enlist ! bo bold ! valiant soldiers ! Fight-courageously I Snatch our suffering family from the hatchet of wretch edness ! They cry, Spare no paitra fear no suffering. Study well the most success ful plan to obtain victory. Never, no, never shcalh your sword until you achieve our liberty! If these Scminoles wero doing more harm than good, cut them off, says true policy, notwithstanding the advantage they may have been to a few of tho Ameri can speculators. No man has a right to enrich himself at the expense of the com. muuity Now any man that would with hold his aid or refuse to eulist under these circumstances, would not be considered a true friend to his country, and one who would furnish tho enemy with means to carry on the war, wou!dboj:onsidored ac- cessory-tohe4aiurderjf aHwho wore slain. . . . . . 11 INow there is an enemy wmcn we can strongTirinkvor Seminolef denominated, by. the Good Book a biting serpent and sting, ing adder, who has been at war with our hbertiesand the American interest, ever since Werwere a people. And iri the course of five years, this enemj hath taken from our pocket, by direct and indirect tax, six millions of dollars, and has destroyed two millions and a Wlf by fire. No wonder the dear people are commencing to suffer for the want of money, when this Seminole ia wasting so much of our wealth every five years. - He makes one'hundred thou sand widows and five times as many orphan children in the samo time. He sends fifty thousand to prison, and deranges or makes fools of as many more. We charge him .oLgausing Several thousand murders, and persuading scores oOuman be1ngs"l(TC0inr mit suicide ! We lay to the charge of this dangerous enemy one hundred and fifty thousand - deaths of this blest American family in five years ! ; He has introduced the sword, the .pestilence and famine, as instruments of slaughter in gone by days ! And he yet' has long teeth and a deadly 'stingj and possesses as mod) malice and subitf ity as ever f Goold-we for one mo ment have a glance at all the horrors caused by tnis foul monster we would be sick and turn a way t and say When, oh I when will this fool monster be chained f - Would not a sceno like this produce feeling!- Surely iho Philanthropist of America will volon. teer and bo faithful men, well disciplined, who wiH act with much caution and I f ru dence. ; . , -"' , ' " - . . , The Seminole war produced ixxilemcnt by destroying thirty per year; but strong drink has slain" her tnirtv thousand ery twelve months !

The files of papers received by this arri val are by no moana of Uta dale, and contain no intelligence ofintercst. We learn vcrbilly that an attempt had been mado to assassinate Santa Ana, but that lho conspirators wero tried and acquitted. T110 Mexican version of the naval com bat between their steamships and the Texan squadron, is totally different from that here tofore published. According to these " ve racious historians' tho Mexicans did not losoaing!e man, while the Texans lost thirty and sustained a signal defeat. Their story proves too much to be 'gene rally accredited, ihcre are gentlemen in in this city who wero eye witnesses of the enrrasemcnt. and know there were but three Texans killed on board the Austin, and ono on board the Wharton by the burst ing of a gun. There is every reason to believe that tho loss of the Mexicans was far greater. Since the above was penned, wo have conversed with a gentleman who came pas sengcr in the Dolphin, to whom we are indebted for the following items of news : 1 ho lexon prisoners captured at Micr had arrived at the city of Mexico, on the 15th ult. They were clothed by order of the Government, chained together in puirs and set to work on the road from the Bish- ops fuiace to tno village ot jacabayo, about four miles from the city. The San Antonio prisoners were still at Pcrotc, and would no doubt be liberated on tho ISih of this month Santa Anna's birth day. , It was also believed that all the Micr prisoners would be liberated, at the same ttme. Santa Anna Was at Jacnbnyo with 0 body guard of 5,000 chosen troops; about the samo number were stationed in the capital. Some ten or twelve officers of distinction had teen arrested, among them General Pcdraza, a former President of the Repub lie, who was confined in the Convent of San Atigustin. ile is much dreaded by Santa Anna, and it was the general imprcs sion thai he wonld be shot by his order. A trial by Court Martial had been offered him, which he prudently rejected, preferring to toko the chance of the President's mercy 4otlat of " certain doath." - - " The news of Commodore Moore's sqad ron being off the coast of Yucatan and his first engagement wilh tho steamers had been received in the city of Mexico. The unfavorable accounts received fromthat quarter had spread a universal gloom over the entire population. : An English brig arrived at Vera Cruz on tho 22d ult. from Kerma, with the-Mexican version of the naval engagement of the 16tli ult., off Campcnchy.
