 Living in the Territory from my child. hood, feel welded to its interests: and under the belief, that the fertiIit, of its soil. the salubrity of its climate, it's mineral l treasures, in connection with it's nayicable streams, aflording at all times, a comlnuni- cation with Orleans, require only to be known abroad, to attract an emiera- ton from the neighboring States, sufficient 1 ly great, speedily to give us an honorable station among the States Of the Union, a portion fthe Advocate will be devoted to typographical and mineralogical descrinti- ons of different sections of the country. 4 portion of the Advocate will be deyo- ted to religious communications, when fur nlshed, from all, or any denomination of l christians.
