were married in Newburyport, Mass., lately. 'The cere.
mony is said to have been witnessed by souse of the first
citizens, Nothing strange for Abolition Massachusetts.
Ihcu Ltvrio.—Last week we received from Harrisburg
by Express, a box containing a pair of large and fat wild
ducks. They were a present from our friend Joseph L.
Poulton, C. M. He had been down at the Bay and killed
twelve at two shots. Hope your luck may continue.
m.An old woman caught a flashy young man picking
her pocket at Toledo. She made a hullabaloo, and ho
joined, after asking, "What is the matter, mother ?" Be
fore people found that ho was not her son, he had vamosed
beyond danger.
.A maiden lady advertises in one of our exchanges
three cats, a parrot and a baboon. She is about to be

.tar The Danville Democrat says : We saw a farmer with
a fine four horse team in town, moving two families to
his farm, intending to keep them during the winter, and,
in return. make use of their labor to improve his estate.
The iron establishments aro nailed up for the winter.
A NEW WAY TO GET RID OF TENANTS.—Bridget
tyre, of Central Palls, R. I. died sonic days since from the
effects of fright and smoke, caused by the landlord of the
building in which she lived having stuffed the chimney
with straw to smoke his tenants out.
,They had a whistling match at a house in Harris
burg, recently. The darkies commenced at half past seven
and whistled until fifteen minutes before ten, when one
of them "gin in." A person present says he never heard
such infernally shrill whistling in his life; no body could
sleep in the neighborhood.
POPULATION Lranso.—The laboring population (says
the Miners' Journal) of Schuylkill county, are leaving that
region by hundred, principally for the West. - On Monday
the 19th, no less than seventy tickets were sold at the
railroad depot for Pittsburg. From Ashland upwards of
fifty left a few days after.
"KEEP YOUR FEET WARM AND TOUR READ COOL," is the ad
vice of-a man who fully understood the importance of fol
lowing the rule. It is notoriously true that neglect to
keep the feet warm and comfortable, causes more disease
•ind misery than ruin and famine combined. Keep your
feet cold and damp, and sickness is inevitable.
roz,.Bank officers take people's money on deposit, hoping
to be able to pay it back when called for, but, if unable
they suspend. Mary Wheeler, a poor girl in Boston, took
two shawls and pawned them to raieo half a dollar, hoping
to be able when times got easier to redeem thorn and re,
Corn them to the owner. The Court, however, sent her
to the Penitentiary.

z; The prominent citizens of New York are organizing
into ward committees for the purpose of breaking up dis
,,e,lerly houses, driving burglars. thieves, tour le: era. cut
throats and assassins out of the city. Better 'stretch'
them than drive them out to !tunny the good citizens of
the country, or disturb other cities worse than they are by
their already large share of the desperately wielte.l.
fra,.Decency is a matter of latitude. In Turkey a man
with tight pants on is considered so great a vulgarian that
he is not tolerated in respectable society. To spit in the
presence of an Arab is to make the acquaintance of a
cheese knife. In Russia, that man is considered low who
refuses a warm breakfast of fried candles. In this coun
try. vulgar people are such as keep good hours, and live
within their laconic.
NEWSPAPER BLANKETS.— The Newport , Mercury gives
forth the following suggestion:—Take a number of old
newspapers, and past them together until you have a spread
large enough for the bed, and this place under an outer
quilt or spread. when it will be found to act like a charm."
Pavans published during an exciting- political campaign,
would, perhaps, answer a better purpose than those pub
lished after an election.
LIPUDENT THIEF.—The Berks Comity Press tells a story
of a market man in Reacripg - „ 'who. while sleeping in his
wagon, with his legs sticking out "a feet" beyond the tad
board, was robbed of a new pair of boots by au enterpris
ing thief, who adroitly removed them from his feet, while
ho was snoring in perfect unconsciousness of the theft.—
The victim was vastly astonished and indignant, as may
be supposed, at this sort of sharp practice.

ifirir A writer in the Baltimore Sun. who has been afflic
ted severely in his family by that appalling disease, bron
chitis. has found relief froni the following remedy : Take
honey in the comb, squeeze it out, and dilute with a little
water, and wet the lips and mouth occasionally with it.
It has never been known to fail, in cases where children
had throats so swollen as to be unable to swallow. It. is
•Oertainly a simple remedy, and may be a very efficacious
one.
TEXAS CATTLE.—A Mr. Wheat, of Lockhart, Texas,
thinks the Texas cattle trade is one of the most profitable
now carried on. He purchased 500 head in Texas, at an
average of $l2 per head, and sold them at Chicago in An
gust to a packer at an average of•s37 per head. He star
ted with A drove in April, and reached Chicago in October.
He had only seven men with him, and lost but eight or
mine head. He r•va-cd the "attle all along the route, the
grass being nearly a foot high. !To passed through the
Choctr a country, and was treated kinciiy by the Indians.
Tic akiSE OF oua TROUPLES.—Some genius who is at
home 'n figures, has been Overhauling the etatis ice to
find mss, if possible, the cause of the present high r eice of
prey' ;ions. He finds that the prodintions of ISFO were
one-sixth less in proportion to population, than ti,ey were
in 1840. The fact is, two-thirds of the eastern men who
go west plunge madly into land speculation, and ilrget to
put in the necessary crope for even their own sui port.—
Until we all turn our attention to useful .3ccup ations, and
lock up speculators and dishonest bank officers is State
prisons, the country cannot prosper as it should.
LOcnts.—Trade in corn, brisk; cash scarce; organ grin
der in town yesterday but could'nt grind out a-,y
our people's pockets were either froze up or empty; chick
ens ready sale at 123/.®15; Thanksgiving is expected here
to-morrow, have no turkey; the country folks keep our
streets pretty well crowded—with money in our pocket
there is no danger of starving—but to put money there is
the trouble, still we have not heard of any one in our
midst, starving; our merchants want more customers,
cash not refused; the b'hoys are conducting themselves
pretty well, we have known them to behave much worse.
LARGE SHIPMENTS OF Gum - N.—The New York Journal
of Commerce publishes a statement showing the number
of ships which have loaded with grain and sailed from
that port. or will sail, during the present month, for Eu
rope. The aggregate quantity of grain included in the
statement is about 1,000,000 bushels, of which say two
thirds is in bags and the remainder is in bulk. Last year,
in November, while the extraordinary shipments .1:1f grain
were taking place, the number of grain vessels which left
New York was but forty-one, whereas it is calculated that
not less than sixty-ono Will sail before the present month
expires.
DAMAGES on SLANDER.—TG ate District Court at Pitts
burg, a reaMays since, a young lady of that city obtained
a verdict of $l3OO against a well known dry goods mer
chant, for having falsely accused her of defrauding him of
a pair of corsets, and publicly insulting her -in conse
quence. She had taken them home to try on, but they
did not fit, and she sent them back by two children of the
family, at the same time taking an omnibus for the rail
road depot, where the merchant met her and charged her
Ivith attempting to leave the city without paying for or
returning the corsets. When the merchant returned home
he found that the corsets had been returned.
BAUrnuonr..—Nov. 21.—At night . ..the police aro never
seen patrolling their districts. they never have during
the present administration, obeyed the directions given
them, and the resulting consequences are to be seen in the
number of assaults, robberies, assassinations, &c., that
crowd the columns of our daily papers. Now. that the po
litical excitement is over, and the clubs have to sustain
themselves, most of them have become pickpockets. in
cendiaries and prowling thieves. Every day records their
depredations on property, by burning and otherwise de
stroying. along the roads leading to the country towns
in the vicinity of the city. The farmers in the neighbor
ing counties have formed themselves into squads, and up
armed for their own protection.
'HOW TO SELECT Ftoun..-1. Look at its color, if it is
white, with a slightly yellowish or straw colored tint, it
is a good sign. If it is very white, with a flush tint, or
with black specks in it. the flour is not good. 2. Examine
its adhesiveness ; wet and knead a little of it between the
fingers; if it works dry and elastic, it is good: if it works
soft and sticky, it is poor. Flour made from Spring wheat,
is apt to be sticky. 3. Throw a little dry flour duet
against a dry, smooth, perpendicular surface; if it fails
like powder, it is bad. 4. Squeeze some of the flour in
your hand; if it retains the shape given it by the pressure,
that, too, is a good sign. Flour that will stand all these
tests is safe to buy. Theso modes were given by old flour
dealers, and we make no apology for publishing them, as
they pertain to a matter that concerns everyboky, nruno
ly, thequality of that which is the staff of life.—{Ohio

Important News from Europe--Arrival
of the Atlantic,
NEW YORK, Nov. 22.—The steamship At
lantic arrived this evening, with Liverpool
dates to Wednesday, the 9th inst, and the
Kangaroo on the 11th inst.
The news brought by the Atlantic is very
important. It embraces late advices from
India, and tho progress of the financial cri
sis. The stringency in the money market
continued unabated, and the Bank of Eng
land has again advanced the rates of dis
count 1 per cent., making the present rate 10
per cent.
The latest advices from Liverpool announce
that the City Bank of Glasgow stopped pay
ment cn Wednesday morning.
Messrs. Dennistown & Co. have failed; their
liabilities are estimated at £2,000,000. Also
the Western Bank of Scotland, with deposits
amounting to £6,000,000, and Babcock & Co.,
Liverpool and New York, whose liabilities
amount to £300,000 sterling. Several other
failures are announced with liabilities of
smaller amounts.
Later advices have been received, confirm
ing the capture of Delhi. The garrison at
Lucknow had been relieved by Gen. Have
lock just as the enemy were ready to blow
it up. A large portion of the city had
also been captured, Gen. Neil has been
killed.
The King of Delhi has surrendered to the
British troops, and his life has been spared.
His two sons were shot.
The Manchester advices are unfavorable.
The failure of Messrs. Dennistown & Co.,
occurred on the 7th inst., but did not trans
pire till after the sailing of the Saturday
steamer. This firm was the heaviest house
in Great Britain, connected with the Ameri
can trade. The principal house was located
at Glasgow, but there were branches in Lon
don, Liverpool, New York, New Orleans, and
Melbourne, but the Australian house is not
compromised by the suspension. The cessa
tion of American remittances, was the sole
cause of the suspension, which will probably
be but temporary, as the private resources of
the partners are very large.
The Western Bank of Scotland, at Glas
gow, which had also suspended, had a paid
up capital of £1,500,000, and deposits form
ing an aggregate of £6,000,000, The busi
ness of the Bank was immense, as it had
one hundred branches in Scotland. The pro
prietory memoers are very wealthy, and no
eventual loss is apprehended,
LATER FRO' Ixrai.—Telegraphic advises
in advance of the overland mail have been
received in London, a fortnight later than the
previous intelligence, The city of Delhi was
in complete possession of the British on the
21st of September. Gen Nicholson had died
of the wounds received in the assault.
Liverpool Breadstuffs Market.—LlVE rtroor„
Nov. 10th.—The market has been very dull
and all descriptions have declined. Messrs.
Richardson Spence's Circular quotes Flour

even at that. Wh:.at is quiet at 2d.@3d.

affected. Corn is also dull, at 6d. decline.—

Sound Views.
It is high time that the business of secret,
partial and corrupt banking should cease.
It is time that the losses to labor in the
midst of universal prosperity, plenty, and
peace, as a result of failing banks, should be
ended.
The practice of plundering industry by
making men work for a paper dollar one day,
which the next is only worth fifty cents, must
stop.
The practice of making the merchant sac
rifice his property and credit to make his
note " good " at a bank which refuses to do
the same things for its creditors, must be for
ever abandoned.
The favoristn of the banks must be given
up.
Every paper dollar should be represented
by a single dollar, and every wan who wants
to open a bank should do so, just as he now
opens a store—his own means, credit, and
character being his capitol, and the law be
ing his restraint.
If there must be paper, let us have it on
these terms. They would not be regarded as
harsh among men of business. They should
not be regarded as hard upon the banks ; and
especially now, that, for fifty years, the
banks have had their full share of the peo
ple's money. Let us consider these notions
at any rate. They cannot be worse than
those which have failed.
The country never was in better condition,
as to all natural advantages, than now. If
the banks fail, crops do not fail. If suspen
sions of specie payments occur, there are no
suspensions of the rewards of the seasons.—
Our state credits are intact. Our United'
States securities are sought after in all the
markets of the earth. There is no emidemic
desolating the land. The banks'alone have
filled the country with lamentation and woe.
This is the time to • consider whether they
can be amended or left to die out entirely.
No RINKS.—No-bank feeling has a much
larger development in the United States than
is generally believed. There are no chartered
banks, or banks of issue, in Florida, Arkan
sas, Mississippi, California and Texas ; and
Oregon has just had presented to her a State
Constitution adopting the same principle.—
The population of these regions may be
named thus:
Mississippi, , - - 700,000
Texas, - , - - 500,000
California, - - - 500,000
Arkansas, - - 300,000

This innovation upon the established usa

be able to report, verbatim, ten thousand words an hour,
while the average number of words spoken by fluent
speakers rarely exceeds seven thousand five hundred words
an hour. When the debates of a day do not make more
than forty columns, they shall appear in the Daily Globe
of the next morning, which will contain, also, the news
of the day, together with such editorial artioles•as may ho
suggested by passing events.
It is also my intention, from time to time, as occasion
may require, to publish my reminiscences of the public
men with whom I have been associated -during the last
twenty-eight years. Anecdotes of General Jackson, and
the leaders of the party which 'he conducted, and the lead
ing men of other parties, will, I believe, be interesting
now when partisan bitterness has abated.
In becoming the reporter of the debates of Congress, I
deemed it proper to say that the Globe would never be a
partisan paper. This pledge will not be forfeited by intro
ducing as a contribution to history the political traits of
character which distinguished the public men of my time.
Although I am, and intend to remain, a thorough Demo
crat, I will never obtrude my principles in a way to make
them obnoxious to any party. But in regard to persons
and events which go to make up history, I hope to make
the Globe an honest memoir; and with that view I am re
solved to speak independently of all parties.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will contain a re
port of all the debates in Congress,
revised by the speak
ers, the messages of the President of the United States,
the Animal Reports of the Heads of the Executive Depart
ments, the Laws passed (hiring the session, and copious
indexes to all. They will be printed on a double royal
sheet, in , book form, royal quarto size, each number con
taining sixteen pages. The whole will make, it is believ
ed, between 3,800 and 3,900 pages, as the long sessions for
many years have ranged between those numbers, and the
next session will be what is termed a toms one:' 'chin I
believe is the cheapest work ever sold in any country, whe
ther a reprint, or printed film manuscript copy, taking
for data the average number of words of the long sessions
since the year 18-18. The average number of pages is :3,8743,
and die average number of words on a page is 2,307, con
sequently the average number of words of a long session
is 9.290,772. As I have sold to subscribers that number of
words fur six dollars, it follows that they have paid loss
than six and one-half cents for every 100.000 words I have
furnished them, while I have paid my reporters $0 29 for
every 2,3'17 words, of this work, in manuscript, Has any
other ookseller, anywhere, ever sold a book in the first
instance while it was new, at so low a tate I believe
not; and so strong is my belief, that I hereby agree to
give to any person who shall prove the cmtrary, a com
plete set of the debates running back to the year 1833,
making forty-three quarto volumes. which will sell for $5
a volume. Au act of Congress authorizes these papers to
go by mail free of postage. The next session will be, with
out donbt. aa.unusually interesting one, as it will be the
first under a new Administration, and several complex
questions must be discussed in it: for example, the cur
rency, Kansas, revenue. and oilier questions. The Globe
will be. therefore, the only source from which full debates
can be obtained.
For a copy of the Daily Globe one year $lO 00
For a copy of the Daily Globe six months 5 00
For a copy of the Daily Globe during the session... 500
For a copy of the Congressional Globe and Appen
dix, and the laws passed during the session 6 60
Baud. notes, current in the section of the country where
a subscriber resides, will be received at par. The whole

Dr. Hardman treats Consnmption, Bronchitis, Asthma,
Larryngittis and all diseases of the thnmt and lungs, by
Medical Inhalation, lately used in the Bromton Hospital,
London. The great puha in the treatment of all human
maladies, is to get at the disease in the direct manner.—
All medicines are estimated by their action upon the organ
requiring relief. This is the important fact up a which
inhalation is based. the stomach is diseased we take
medicine directly into the stomach. 4 If the lungs are dis
eased, breaths or inhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines are antidotes to disease and should
he applied to the very seat of disease. Inhalation is the
application of this principle to the treatment of the lungs.
for it gives us direct access to those intricate air cells, and
tubes which lie out of reach - of every other means of ad
ministering medicines.' The reason that Consumption.
and other diseases of the lungs, have' heretofore resisted
all trcatnu2nt has been because they have never been ap
proached in a direct manner by medicine. They were in
tended to act upon the lungs, and yet were applied to the
stomach. Their action was intended to be local, and yet,
they were so administered that they should only act con
stitutionally, expendin , their immediate and principal ac
tion upon the unoirendlg stomach, whilst the foul ulcers
within the lungs were unmolested. Inhalation brings
the medicine in direct contact a ill the disease, without
the disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is
so simple, that it can be employed by the yolnigest infant
or feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach, or in
terfere in the least degree Iv ith the strength, connect, or
business of the patient.
Other Piseases Treated.—ln relation to the following dis
eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ex
isting alone, I also invite consultation, 1 usually find them
promptly curable.
Prolapsus and all other forms of Female Complaints, Ir
regularities and Weakness.
Palpitation and all other forms of Heart Disease, Liver
ColnlailltS. Dyspepsia, arid all ether diseases of stomach
