The Settlers are they to obtain a market from Government
for the provisions they produce? In this case the
saving whatever to their land under to government under this
head is proportionably reduced? Is this market to be

would be sufficient for the aggregate amount of the demand
for that part of their maintenance, even in ordinary
years: much less for such an supply as when overflow

of extent as to the proportional number, as well as in point
of intensity in the instance of each individual infected with
