A Necessity.—Th3 Summit

can lie raised against. while much and
unanswerable argiiments Call be addu. .
cod in favor.of the Su.nmit Bank, to
be located in this place, and for which
application to incorporste is about to,
be made at the present session. In
fact the hank is an absolute necessity
to the prosperity acd welfare.ef this
community, yin!). acing as it does va
rious and important interests which
are actually suffering tor want of those
accommodations fir which they :are
obliged now to pay a large am cal trib;.
ute •to the capitalists of Cie State of
New York. 0 ir bu,ine s men are
cramped and stagnated in their busi
ness by inability to plot:tire that ready
inotty capital with - which only busi :
ness can be made prosperous and de
sirable. they are obliged to seek GC. ,
CIIMIIILI/lalilffis from banks, 'he nearest
of which is seventy-live miles distant,
and which they str, ols:iged to pay
an additional .usury of one per ce rt.
seven per cent.. in all ; wh Tea's, had
'we a bank ill midst, tapit:d w: mid

by giving his paper at four or six

froM the goods :purchased. - in :• New
York four, or six, or eight months
since, and which be has sold upon. al
mbst indefinite book aczotint, will ena
ble hire to meet his bank note. But
even in this hope he is disappointed.--;-
for what little money there was iu cir
culation has already taken its comae
towards the New York banks to meet
the piper of our lumbermen which has
come to maturity. The mieicantile
business of this community is -in a
much greater measm dependazt up
on the lumber trade than any other—.
'hence what cramps the one diseuable.s
the tither, and whim
. both are stagna.
ted the entire coin nunity- is &sewn
m.nled. Petitions are now'being cir
culated in our county, praying - for the
incorporation of the Sem-nit Bank ;
and we hope they will he gtkorally
signed by the citizens throughttM the'
county. A great influence will thus
he gained in favor of the bank, While
there - is scarcely a m-iti i u the county
who will not directly or indirectly be
bonefitted by the, itititution. It is
believed. and with good cau,e, that an
effort will be made to kill every
application made this session ; h4ll7Vg
islative memhets from all Seale:ls' of
the State will hardly venture to resist
the united
,appeal of a politittal c tm
munity • which is every year growing
Mute and more inflrunti Ml as a power
for graining or rejecting the claim., of
politica' aspirants.
We learn that our itwnediate
resentative, (MT. Benson.) only awaits
the action of his constitenets upon this
question by petition, to to work in
behalf of the bank with that energy
for which he is sa justly reputable ;
and we are informed that Mr. Pet
riken will also • exert lifinself in its
favoi—or, at least that he is so pledg.
ed. All, therefore, now lacking to se
cure the attention of the Legislature
and the Executive to . our . claims, is a
determined and united action of the
community to be iititst benefitted ;
we rest fo. the present with the hope
that eVery`man in Potter . county will
sign-his natne to the Bank Petition.

day evening, Jan. 30th, we received
the Pittsburg Daily Dispatch•, of Dec.
17, 1856. On the wrapper it wee
stamped "America, Liverpool Jan. 1,"
from which we infer that it has takea
a journey. since its date, of over 6000
miles. But what could have taken it
uff'on such , a journey We can ac
count for it upon no other hypothesis
than accident; and hope our friends
