The Farmers' and Mechanics' Savings
Institution. of Adams County.
Pursuant to the call published in the pa
pers of the borough, a number ufcitizens fr,in
town and - country met at :kl,;Conaughyrs Ball
nn Saturday, 4th of April, at Ll o'clock A.' M.
The meeting organized. by electing,
President, John Brough, Esq.
V. Presidents, \Vu Culp &A. llointzelman.
Secr's,S, Durboraw and Chas. Horner.
D. MeConitughy stated the object of the
meeting at some length. He spoke of the ne
cessity and usefulness of the proposed Institu
thin, and also of the mode of organization.--
No charter was necessary. The Chambers
burg Institution bad been in existence
s i nce 1835, had no charter, and is in success
ful operation, doing a yearly business exceed
ing $lOO,OO O . InTrauklin county there are at
least four other Savings Associations. The
fire do a business of some i 3300,000 ; and yet
the Bank of Chambersburg is successful, and
has in no way opposed them. The Frederick
Institution, organized upon the weekly depos
it system_hal grown to over half a million,
and is nearly equal to two of the Banks at
Frederick. These Institiitions do a work that
lianks cannot des. They exist in every adjoin
ing County, and our County should have one
and can successfully sustain it. He moved
and it was
Respired, to proceed to organize a Savings
Institution fur Adams County, and to arroint
a Committee of three to report a Constitution
and - By-laws to be submitted to the meeting.
The Chair appointed D. DcConaug;hy, George
Throne and John Horner the Committee.
The Cnninittee retired for sonic time, and
upon returning reported a Constitution and
Dy-la_ws,—whielr on motion, were taken up
article by article,
and.section by section. and
thus adopted in detail—and then the whole
was adopted as the Constitution and By-laws
of the Association—the style to be "The Far
mers' arid Mechanics' Savings Institution of
Adams County." The jointfunds not to ex
ceed s.tor),(iou, and to be put in the form of
weekly:deposits, made fur the purpose of shar
ing the profits of the Institution.'
The meeting then proceeded to the signing
of the Constitution, and subscribing to the
joint funds. An amount exceeding $lO,OOO
vins subscribed for the first year, , to be paid
iu as the business of the Institution requires.
At 2 o'clock, P. M., the members met and
pr receded to the election of Officers for the
ensuing year—Ctiarles Horner and E.
Falinestock being appointed to act as Tellers,
and the voting being by ballot. It resulted

The 'Chinese compute their losses in

We .cannot of course know very act urately
the damage, sustained by tile city of,Canton,
.since the bombardment began, nth of Octo

with at )re or less pertinacity, to within a few
days agn, when the English Admiral retired
Kith his forces from before the city. it is fair
to suppose that the Chinese do nut over esti
mate the loss in life, when they state it at

—The New York Sun hits a letter datod.
March 16, signed by Capt. A. T: S.
Anderson, giving a different version of the
'Walker ".victory" front that, already made
public. After noticing Walker's attack on
the enemy at St George and the successful
manner in which he is said to have driven
them from that place., he proceeds:
"Now came the tug of war. Our little
army of not exceeding three hundred and fifty
men. all toll, were surrounded by the enemy,
umbering 2.500 or 3,00.. We were complete
ly hemmed in, hut had ggined our point in
drawing them out of the place.. All communi
cation with Rivas was cut of and we were
without provisions, having taken none with
us. the distance from one place to the other
be'ng only three miles.
The enemy coming to a large ranch threw
up entrenchments and harrica(les along the
road Walker was compelled to pass, and where
be could not bring, his artillery to play.—
Walker then, at the heal of the infantry bat
tolion, made a desperate charge upon the
leirricales, and after immense slaughter, cut
his wav past them. At least five hundred
shots were tired at the General, but all to no
effort. lie is not to be killed by the bullets
of the enniv. We kept up the fighting, fir
the remainder of the 4ay., and then returned
to Rivas fur something to eat and for rest,
winch the men greatl , .; needed.: We left no
less than five hundred (if the enemy on the
field—killed and wound'oL
he cueing are still in the ranch, which
is may about 1,000 cards from us. We cart
see them with the naked eye from our plaza.
They are supposed to be only some 30fi or
400 strong.,"
The writer concludes by expressing, the be
lief that Walker would soon dispen-e them.
The Sun, however. is of a different opinion.
It looks upon Walker's position as very critical.

' affirms that the villlge of Aladana, which is
about sixty-nine El,glish . miles from ltuNt

one period the female population was two
hundred. The ladies are not warriors like
the _Amazons of old, but have avoided all in
