PHILADELPHIA, AUG. 28.
Mr Fenno,
Reports are industriously circulated tending to induce a belief that an amicable adjustment with the malcontents in the western parts of this state, has become certain. We understand that there are some favorable appearances—but a proof that they do not justify the very sanguine conclusions which are drawn is that measures of preparation for a different issue are going on with unabated exertions.
In such an undetermined state of the business, what can be the motive for propagating the belief abovementioned. Is it to cool the zeal of good citizens and relax the measures which the support of the laws may be eventually found to require?
