Weravail ourselves of the follow ing intelligible abstract of it by the Courie r and F.n quirer: I. The !Ulmer of ftensslaerwick extends from, e k, point twelve miles below; to a point twelve mites a bove, Albany, north and south, and to a distance mesh side of the Hudson of twenty four miles; it is thereforti 24 miles in length and 43 in width, embracieg the counties of Albany and Trov. burl some villages. ert : mpted; its population is 50,000. 2. The tide to the land rests upon *hiss , grounds; Holland, in order to enconear. emigraots, Riede Liberia offers to Portions, who should plant colonies in Nett} Netherlands. Killian Van 'Rensielaer, - at various times, from IfiliQ to 1g37, purchased tends- trfinv the Indian chiefs, in presence of the pawnor, making payment in full. These purchases were confitined the authorities at Fort Amsterdam, by the Pete government at li3me, by the English in 16114, *gain in IfiS§, and still again in 1704, and finally b'y the State of New York in 135/1, by a provision of the constitu tion say*, that nothing in that instrument "shall af feet any grants of land within this Siete. made by the authority of the King or his mdecessors." The Jed i ciary Committee, in the Legislators last year, said expressly that if•thls was not a good title, there can certainly norm in the State." 3.Most of the Manor is settled under laerpeter4 manes, by which tenants hold the farms ir. perpetuity with a reservation to the proprietor of While „Lid streams: the right to mot mills and cut timber, them, tfie right of ingress and 'egress cryer the.Jand.s. thq paying for dr land so used :, , ,and a quarter of the purchase money - en every alienation of the estate other wise than by will. The tenant is bound to pay a yearly rent in wheel, Attlr fat feeds, arid' a days see: vice, and to pay all taxes. • 4. The rent paid by the Ilelde!berg and Rensselaer farmersisiern bushels ofwheat per one hundred acres, and the average of the whole Manor is eleven busheti per one hundred acres—less than one bushel to nine acres. 'Tk.eae.exe the prominent facts concerning the tenure by which thqse lands are held . The title Of the , ' proprietors is perfectly good, th3"rentl are low, and the whole is held according to egpresa agreement. The grievpsoef complttined' of by the tenants, arr 4 which are made the pretexts of the rebellion and ro lusal to pay the rents, are thus stated; 1. They allege a want oftitte in the landlord; this hits been disproved; and if it were well fiunded, they certainly' hiVe nb baiter title 'limn the proprietor. 2.. Some complatib because grey pay in wheat instead of money. 'There can be no prectienl grievance in this provision, as With mosey Wheat cc.ii always be purchased; 'the re: qnisite amount con always be raised; and the arrange:. Me it was made expressly, for the . betiefit fifths tea : ants. 3. The pair of fowls Atari day's setfice are-re presented es anti-republican. Thew Atepts always been commuted at the market price when desired. 4. The reservation - to the 'landlord' or a mistier of the money, when the farms ere riot), is eemsplained of ; lair it should be borne in mind that it cost the holder , . , nothilsr, that he agreed to the condition tnat he gets three fourths' when p'e pas no ownership in it, had above all; these quarter files have eery merely been executed by the proprietors, and may always' be coup muted by very small prices. The resetvatinn of mines and styeerns is complained of; bbi it is a part or the contract, and practically it fins no effect its no mines have been discovered. p. The tenants say they have pate for the land, by paying rent for a series of years, and shpuld therefore be its owners; timeame rule would relearie a botrower from the obligation to pay the 'Wrincipal of a debt, 'when be bad kept it lone ' enough to have the neentnufated interest equal to the sum. 7. Another complaint is, li!kt bank • name have been allowed to accumulate; this is as rraiall l ,ll4 o fault of the tenant as the proprietor, and inoretrieer't late PatrOettemnie the most positive and benevolemp firovieions in his will for abatement in whole or in part of these back rents. 8. It is said the tenants have been degraded to vassals and serfs: the Judiciary com mittee Of the late Legi,lature have declared their be lief that this grievance existed only in imagination. These are the grievances of which the tenants com plain; and no one can fail to see that they are utterly LID' founded, or at, least inadequate to justify the steps they nave taken. The writer of the communication next id luies to the propositions that have been made to ie. move even these slight causes of dissatisfaction on thli part of the tenants. The proprietors have never pro posed, in new leases, to renew any of the objection 4 Ca oll ets but have been perfectly witting to unite with the tenants in cancelling all old leases, and changing this mode of tenure, so that wheat rent should beeenvertett. into money rent, and the fermi purchased at iheprie, of vvhichthe tent due would he the interest. The ten ants profess to agree to thole terms„ but a diference ur rises as to the price of the wheat, ati4 the rate of *Gr eat; the proprietors wish to...take the average price of wheat for ,the lest tea years, (which would be aliont $/ ,2.5,) and 10 estimate the interest at 5 per oent—the tenants eefuse to allow over $),00 per lerskie,lf4i . the wheat, and demand the interest to he esarnateil at per cent, The difference between these views will be seen at a g li,nte.:--24 bushels at $1,25 pet` bitshel, era $28,50, which would be the entitle' tent; and this at {, per cent would be the annual interest of $l5O, the price of the farm on the proprietor's scale. 0111 the other hand, 22/ bushels, at $1,01), make the yearly rent only 5e2.50. and at 9 per taint would cattier it principal nf only $3:22 on the tenant's scale. At this & ewes flinch the more honest difference of opinion in volved in the case, we copy . tlie following passage i? vindication'et the preprietot s claim Erne! the commu nication of Mr. Van Renaselaer. • "The proprietors have in their tons the considera : lion that the roa of interest ou long and peen.aneot loans. (such as these mast be estimated.) bee been per cent, which• is the - rate et the preseht time; and fhrthermore, that money does not now cOtti mind; vital fora single year. more than 6 per cent... 7 The practical operation of the adoption: of thews two scales, would be that on the landlord's palculation the and would bring $l.OO per acre, and on the tent:mil ralculatfon ontyVi,oo. If it be added that the web rage price at which tenants hove sold the ferni•oa tleit Manor has beertabout 823.09 per licit': subject ed the annual rent. the fairness of the proprietor', calculation is more and 'more evident.
