THE BUC lIANAN CJAJB had a glorifi
cation meeting on Saturday evening last. A
tjumber of speeches were made.
HALLOWEEN, Saturday night last, was
duly celebrated by the youngsters of our town,
even to the sprinkling of corn against doors and
windows. Few, perhaps, who are accustomed to
the playful observance of this night, by the ju
veniles, are aware that Halloween was the
time when the "guid" but superstitions people
of Scotland, tried the charms and spells in
which they believed, and thus observed as rites
and ceremonies, what is now imitated in sj*>rt
by the young people of our country. They be
lieved it "to he the niuht when witch"--, devils,
and other mischief-making beings, are all a
broad on their haneful midnight errands ; par
ticularly those aerial people, the Fairies, are
said on that night, to hold a grand anniversa
ry." It '- V3S then that the "lasses" were
a feat an' cleanly neat,
jVfair braw than when they're fine;
Their faces Mythe, fu' sweetly kythe.
Hearts leal, an' warm an' kin':
The lads sae trig, \vi' wooer-bab*,
YVeei knotted on their garten,
Some unco Mate, an'some wi' cabs,
Gar lasses' hearts gangstartin
Whiles fast at night."
THE BANK OF PENNSYLVANIA.
which was hut a few months ago regarded as
one of the safi-st an! soundest institutions of its
kind in the ITnifed States, has been found to hp
rotten to the core. The President of the Rank,
Mr. Allibone has gone to Europe and many
persons Conjecture that there has been much
fraud ant! swindling by those who had charge
of its affairs. This furnishes additional evi
dence that our hanking system is essentially and
radically wrong. Certainly, were it otherwise,
the entire business community, would not thus
have been blindfolded to the rottenness of the
Pennsylvania Bank.
