notice-
THE 50lh Anniversary of tiro Belles Lcttrea So
ciety, will bo celebrated in tiro Methodist Episco
- pal Choral of this Borough, on '1 uesday evening tho
to commence at half past six o’clock.
Tho Band from the U. S. Barracks will bo m otton
dance.
Mr. SPKOLE’S lecture, in tho Saloon o
Education Hall, on Tuesday evening, was an admira
ble production. The subject—" True Philosophy
was treated in a masterly manner, and was alike credit
able to tho head and heart of tho talented lecturer.—
Tho hall was crowded to overflowing with ladies and
gentlemen, and all appeared delighted—no doubt many
were edified—with tho lecture. Wo ;trust that tho
‘-Alert Finn CojiriNx," for whoso benefit and by
whose exertions these lectures arc gotten up, may se
cure Mr. Sprole's services often during tho winter.
GENERAXj JACKSON.—On the opposite page
our Venders! will find o synopsis of an interesting de
bate recently held in tho York Legislature, on
the subject of requesting Congress to pass an act re
funding to Gcn.-jackson the fine, imposed upon him
by Judge Hall in ISIS, for"'declaring martial law in
New Orleans. The extract froiu the letter of tho Old
-Hero will be read with interest.
New York has led the way in this set hf justice.— |
Ohio has followed suit—and wo trust that every De
mocratic Legislature in the Union will respond to the
call. We hope that Pennsylvania will not be hind
most in the. good work. -The warrior statesman of tho
Hermitage has always been a favorite of the Old Key
stone, and wo see no _ reason why . she should not be
among the foremost in assisting to obliterate tho foul
injustice inflicted upon him by a vindictive tory Judge-
nrrMr. Buchasan’b reply to Mr. Clay, on the
' subject of amending tho constitnlion so ns to restrict

THE RESUMPTION DILL.—Tho Bank or Re
sumption Bill of tho. Senate, which is published in
another column, docs not appear to meet with much,
favor from any party in this community. It is gene
rally looked upoii aa amounting to just ho resumption
ol all, and will be far from satisfying the public, should
it become a law. The first section, it will be perceived.
compels the Banks to redeem of their "issue, only five '
_ perlccnfe of the capital stock pnid in every ninety'days: I
ihis'-Kißi
years before they would belli a.stale drcoinpletc
sumption. And. lhen, how easy to avoid a bona-fide .
‘resumption altogether: Suppose a bank witlra capital
paid in of $200,000; five per cent, of this amount ‘
WdulJ be $lO,OOO. This, to be sure, would ho a very j
clever sum to scatter in a community every ninety
days: But. suppose (and there is nothing to prevent
it) that the day before the resumption takes place ;
tome Director, or Stockhuldt r, or Agent > of the insti
tution put* the requisite. anuAmt of its paper in his j
,p<rckot, and Chen, upon the opening of the bank next)
morning, presents it at the counter and receives the
specie, only to place it right back in the vaults again, i
end tins to be repeated every ninety days—wo should j
like to know wtml kind of a resumption this would be,
or how the public would be benefited. And yet this,
forsooth, resumption, if not in accordance
with the spirit, certainly,in agreement with the Idler,
bf the BUI!
The people are heartily sick of humbuggery—and
they will not be satisfied with such a miserable subter
fuge for resumption as the bill in question.. Tho Sen
ate Committee would have gained infinitely more
credit if they had reported against resumption alto
gether, than produce sucli a bantling aa this. The
House bill was objectionable in several respects; but
with all its imperfections, it had the merit of look
ing to a bonadidojjjnqualificil resumption—not a sheer
mockery like the Senate bill.
a gradual resumption is preferable, to a full
one* Why. hot require the Banks to resume, say on
their fives during the first ninety days—their fives
and tens during the second period of ninety days—
their fives, tens and twenties during,' the third
■ period—and./cr ell MeiV.wibcs.thereafter, A resump
tion of this kind, we think would satisfy the people
hud perhaps, the solvent Banks too—and* could, only
lie objected to by those rotten institutions which linger
out an unhealthy existence by means of a general sus
pension, and which operate as an incubus upon the
whole banking system.
Qj > The Baltimore Clipper, at the close of ah article
in favor .of an early resumption, has* the following well- j
limed and judicious remarks:— 4 . J
There appears to be a strange misapprehension of
the effects to be produced by resumption; and some ]
people, m their a}arm;<are disposed to ascribe
(he most terrible consequences;to the measure—the
banks are tb'bc drained.of their specie and compelled
to go into liquidation, and.tho business community oro
to be broken up root and branch. But these disas-
are the mere chimeras of the imagination.
■Resumption wilt , purify the moral like
lightning does the natural. The panic will soon sub
side; banks will recover public confidence and resume
their usefulness; business will revive; and. stockholders
in banks will realize something for their investments.
Public opinion, common sense and common honesty
are in favor of on early-resumption—and it will bo
strange if the State Legislatures' set these at defiance

JcDOK readers will remember, that '
during the discussion of Mr. Adams* case in the house
lof representatives, Mr. Bolts,-of Virginia, stated that
! judge Upshur,' secretary of the navy, had advocated a
| dissolution of, the Union. This charge the judge de
nied. In tho' National Intelligencer of Tuesday, Mr.
Bolts brings forward bis testimony, which, unless it
can bo invalidated, will place judge Upshur in a disa
greeable light before the country. Gentlemen, for
whoso respectability and veracity Mr. Bolts vouches,
state that the judge has, on various occasions, advoca
ted a dissolution of tho Union, without restriction or
qualification. The judge, in a card published in yes
terday’s National Intelligencer, asks a suspension of
public opinion until ho can respond to the publication
of Mr. Bolts. When the people .have heard all that
both parties say, they will be better able to
make up their verdict. So fur Mr. Bolts has certainly
sustained his charge—and, if ho maintains his advart*
tage, Judge Upshur will stand convicted before tho
American people of favoring a dissolution of tho con
federacy—in which case wc need hardly say, he should
bo removed from his present situation as secretary of
tho navy, \ v
Tho gtcal length of Mr. Bolts’ publication precludes
it from our columns.— Balt. Clipper*
The Clandestine Marriage. —Great excitement has
been produced in New York by the runaway match of
a British officer with a young boarding school girl.—
The Herald says
The young lady referred to is Miss Emily Croghan,
the daughter of a Mj*. Croghan, of one of the western
States, who has been ah Indian agent in the service of)
the government. Her uncle is the celebrated hero of
Sandusky, Col. Croghan, of the U. S. Army. , Her
father is now in Washington. She is the heiress it ifc
said, of half a million of dollars I The affair has pro
duced a great' excitement in fashionable • circles, anil

all parUcs , cohcerned.
The name of the officer is Shinlcy, whose age is vari
ously represented—the lowest at 49, and the highest
70 years,, whilst that of the girl is below 14. They

Look Out! —The Slock notes of the Towanda
Bank, signed by “Ti Dyer, clerk,” os well as those
signed “J. G. Boyd, clerk,” are refused at the counter
of the Bank, on the giourtd that they were issued in
Philadelphia without the authority of the Board of Di

sent in a message on Saturday to the Senate, informing

The message was referred to the comrniticc on Banks.
■ New York Evening Post, in alluding to
the recqnt rbmark of Senator Tallmadge, in reply to
Mr. Benton, that tho Democratic policy was the occa
sion of all the bankruptcy in the nation, retorts as fol
lows:
That is—Mr. Tallmadge-and his friends speculate
in Poughkeepsie lands, until the credit system having
‘‘reached its maturity and perfection,” they find them
selves in the possession of more mud than money—
more paper than debts than* dividends,
and'they charge their folly upon the democratic party.
This is logic; yet there ngyer was a rogue, caught in
the act of villainy, who did J hot ascribe it to something
other than his vicious propensities—nor ever a fool
tjiat would confess his wcakhess, while there was any
one.else lo serve as a scape-goat.' , .*'* ...

Miller was called to the chair—Samuel Davis of East
Pennshorough, John Agnew of Carlisle, were chosen
Vice Presidents, and Samuel Giving and P» F» Egc,
appointed secretaries.
Gen. Alexander stated the object of the meeting; and
in a speech of much interest, showed the importance,
and indispensibility, of a Protective Tariff, to the exis
tence and prosperity of domestic manufactures.
Frederick,.Watts, Esq., made some remarks on the
benefits arising from the imposition of duties on foreign
fabrics, and the inapplicability of the “Free Trade”
principle to one nation while the rest of the world was
living under a system of protective duties. 'Mr. Watts
concluded by offering the following resolutions, which
