we have received some very Interesting inteiii-
gence from the Heidelberg Mountains, disclosing
some curious particulars OF the anti-rent nsurrec
ton there against the Van Rensselaer, family ana
the legal authorities.


| The farmers in that region are regularly drilled
| at stated times, TO the number OF many hundreds
| The whole district is organised against the pay
ment of rent, and are determined to fight TO the
last. Patrols of men, disguised as Indians, scour
the mountains and valleys, and every road and
pass are guarded. 1t is believed that the Cover
nor's Proclamation will have no result-no effect
The lnsurreciionary spirit of these mountaineers
is stimulated by the "New York Tribune" and
other like journals which circulate among them,
and encourage them in resistance to the payment
OF rent and the execution of the laws.


The following document has been circulated
very widely among the mountaineers.

Two new weekly papers have been recently
established in this city which support their views,
in addition to the "Tribune." What the end of
this lnsurrection may be no one can tell. Most
likely blood will flow before all is over.
