Logic We, the Trustees of HarpCth Academy, do certify, that James Hf Otey has had charge of the said Institution for the term of twoyears, that his conduct has been such both as a teacher and citizen' as to give entire satisfaction to the bbard, and it is with reluctance, that they part with this Gentleman. His qualifications as a teacher, they believe to be surpassed by no man of his age, and seldom have seen so many requisites, necessary for the government of a literary institution combined in the same and we have no doubt, but his exemplary virtues and" literary acquirements will give him a welcome reception, and render him an estimable member of any circle in' which he may be placed.

In our last Daner, we informed our readers that the Jail of Franklin County had been broken and that several prisoners had escaped. Since which, we have re ceived the following letter from one of tire Prisoners, with the annexed Cer tificate of the Sheriff and Jailor. The sinirularitVi of the adventure which is here given, is, perhaps, without a pa ralleT, especially when it is known that the two white men are.

Tiiesday last, that the Jail of Franklin county was broken on the feyeftihg' of Saturday the 17th instant, and tnat the prisoners had made their escape, I feel it a duty which I not only owe' to myself but to ercry honorable, though unfortunate; prison er, to correct the statemaftt made your very aseful paper, by; narrating the tacts as tKey really were. A Myself and brother prisoner had long since declared tnat at some cqnvement Time, and as a token of our. respect for the Sheriff of laid county, we would pay him a friendly visit, and accordingly on the evening ot the irth. heih Saturday, and knowinir that the next day (Stmday) would be a leisure day with him, and consequently we should have the better opportunity of enjoying his com pany, we did, on that evening, by the art of command the Iocks and uons, and they obeyed us we walked out, hired a pilot, and went straight onto the Sheriffs and were by him very politely received 'and treated and after dinner lbn Sunday, were honored with his company back to town.

would further remark, that previous leaving the JaJ, we had wrote and left on the table, a to the Jailer? stating; to him where we had gone and when we would return."

MILITARY BOUNTY LADS IN TUB TERRITORY OF UllKANSAS. 7 ROM THE ARKANSAS OAZF.TTE.

An lAct, passed at the late session of the uenerai Assembly ot tms ernto-ry, entitled 4 An act to regulate 1 the collection of Taxes, on Military Bounties. This law is of the first impor tance to the holder? of Patents fin Bounty Lands, in this Territory, and particularly so o-non-residents. It makes it tlie duty of the sheriffs of the 'several counties, so soon as they shall receive from' the Territorial Auditor a transcript of the Military Bounty Lands lying in this (measures hav ing already" been taken to procure the same from 'the Commissioner of the General Land Office,) "to enter and list all the said lands for taxation, in "the name of the original claimant, which shall have been drawn tnree years pre vious to the first day of June, in the year 1824." And all such lands, on which the. shall remain unpaid for four month.3 'after they have been entered for taxation by the Sheriffs, are directed be sold to? pay the taxes due thereon, There are in this Territory about 3,000,000 acres of Military Bounty Lands, which have been set apart by the government, for -bounties to the soldiers of the Army of the U. States, for services performed during the late var with Great-Britain.

Aiarge pro- fortlon of thi3 tract will become taxa le next year, and unless the taxes are paid soon, it must inevitably be forfeit--: ed for the same by the present owners, most of whom are All confirmed lands in this Territory are subject to an annual tax of SI 50 for every 100. acresi Boun-; ties, however, are exempt from this tax during the terra of three years from the issuing of 7the patent, unless the same has been transferred by the original owners1, in which' case it becomes taxable from the date of the transfer. Manypersons owning Military Bounty Lanil in this Territory, nder ti derived from the oriojual owners, 'have omitted to get their patents re corded, for the purpose of evading, or xil at a t. puuiii uuau a miuic ucuuu, uns pay Hi III OI llifir i2U.CS, UUl UUS cApeiu- ent will fail them In future The transcript which shall be procured from the commissioner of the General Land Office, will give the proper officers of thi3 Territory the means of ascertaining every patent which has been issued and pall non-residents, owning such lands, will be comnelleb! to anroint a- gent, 'residing in; tne Territory," to at tend to tne pavment or tneirtaxes, otner- wise they lorteit their Ianas. For the accommodation of noh-resi dents, the-Editor of the Arkansas Ga zette proposes to attend to the pa-, ment taxes oh any lands in this Territory, on being furnished, with the necessary lunas, wtmom cnarin any thins for -his trouble in attending to the" same.

This he is induced to Joy for the purpose of disposing of a oi. lernionai ocnp, wmcn is. receivable at par. in payment of taxes due the lerntory. i "Any person wbhing taxes paid, by description oi tne tract, nounor me quarter townsmp and ranjevin which it together with acenuine note on any specie nay ing bank in the United States, of sufi- aent amount.

JTew-York. The Legislature of N. York met on the 13th inst and unusu al interest seems to have attended the opening of the session, on account' of the doubt which has hung over the po litical complexion of the popular branch of the Legislature, in the minds of the friends of the several candidates for the Presidency of the United States.

That doubt is now dispelled, and it seems to be admitted that a majority of the Re publicans in that body, are. disposed to be guided by those principles, in regard to a certain great question, on which the party has heretofore stood and pros nered. At the election for Speaker, Ri chard Go dejll received 1 loyotes; be ingthe votes of all present, 9 excepted This unanimity was owing to arAleeting 01. the Republicans on the evening pre ceding, when, on a ballot for a candid ate for Speaker, R. Goodeil received 70 votes, and James TaliJmadge 40 votes, and the rest scattered lamong dif ferent persons.

Mr. Edw. Livingston was. in like manner chosen lerk of the House. It is.

not to be tlisguised, that these elections had a bearing 011 the Presidential Question, and, that as far as the decision goes, it is favorable to theielectibifvof Mr. ra w.ro rd' the Presidency. Of the deep interest which is taken on the subject at Albany, we have sufficient proof in the fact that the House of Representatives was scarcely organized, before Mr. heaton a Re presentative fi-om the city; of N. gave notice, tnat ne would, at (some Future day, ask leave to bring in a bill providing for the cbpice of electors of rresiaent ana vice 1'resiaent oy tne people of this State.7' -This was faking aimc uy uic loiciucx.
