governor's deliberate written opinion In Bolton's case none but farmers mechanics ana the like were in the governor's case the salary of a public officer was touched The governor and his clerk3 in

surrounded and the calamities yet in store for us Though the want of exertion argues a total want of public spirit and public virtue yet it is a melancholy fact (we confess it with shame and confusion) that nothing has been done to save this rich and flourishing city the seat laborious industry and enlightened enterprize the principal mart and emporium of an extensive and populous region from imminent danger of being covered with a pestiferous pool a-live with serpents and alligators The mischiefs that will result from this fatal indifference to the progress of the inundation are
