Theimmunity was somewhat surprised at the usual hour
for openin/the State Bank, on Monday morning last, oa
finding that its doors remained closed. The news of the
suspension soon travelled through the hoslnesscircles, and
while’some seemed Startled at this suspension, others felt
that It was nothing more than' the crisis and the times
demanded, and were really glad to hear that the: doors of
the State Bank remained closed. The great'relief which
this suspension—that of all specie paying banks—was said
would he the result, we must confess we have not experi
enced. Currency has now become the basis of all business
transactions of the market, for no sooner was it known
that the Btate Bank ceased to pay out specie, the other
new banks of our city immediately suspended, with the
exception of one—the Mechanics 1 Bank—which still con
tinues to deem its notes with gold and silver, but this
fact amounts to almost nothing, and it may be said all of
the Bt. Louis-Banks have now suspended. The State and
other charted suspended banks are doing business as usual,
with the exception of paying specie for their notes. All
our private banks receive the notes of all solvent suspended
western and eastern banks ou deposit nnd pay out the
same on chocks.
Onr produce market continues dull, though the feeling
is somewhat better. Receipts are liberal. Flour is now
selling At $4 and $5 per barrel; Wheat 62c to $1 10; Corn
65 to 70c; Oats 34 to 37c; Barley C2^c; Rye 70c; Whiskey
19c; Potatoes 50 to 60c; Onions 95c; Hay $1 per
100 lbs.
The health, of our city continues good. The weather
has been cool and pleasant, with heavy frosts. ~~jNo rain
of auy consequence has fallen, which is just now much
needed, if fer no other purpose than to produce a rise in
the.upper rivers, which are reported very low and falling.
There is really not a single local item worthy of report.
Yesterday, the let of November, was the anniversary of
the Gasconade Railroad disaster, by which some thirty or
forty of our most prominent citizens were hurried into
eternity. Although it has.b**eu two years since the occur
rence, the scene is still vivid in the memory of many who
were providentially saved upon that occasion.
Mr. Edwin Forrest, the distinguished American trage
dian, has arrived in onr city, and commences an engage
ment to-night at Wood’s Theatre. Nearly every person
one meets haa something to say of “ Forrest,” and as it has
been many years since he played in this city, he will draw
large crowds nightly to the theatre. He commences his
engagement with “Hamlet.” There is considerable stir
and excitement in the theatrical circles, and the manage
ment will without doubt, reap a rich harvest from the great
reputation of this •• StAr.”
A boiler in a pork packing estahlishme-t, at Alton. HI.,
exploded on Saturday, entirely demolishing the building,
and dreadfully wounding several persons. Loss of property

We mentioned in our last letter that the “Sons of Penn"
•were to have a celebration in Chicago, on Saturday, the
24th ult., and through the p-fliteoesn of Dr. Charles Leib,
we were furnished with the toasts and other proceedings
of this Select party. Among the numerous toasts we find
the following:—
“ The President of the United States—one of Pennsylva
nia’s noblest Sons.”
This was responded to by J. W. Bell:
“ Pennsylvania, the Kepstone of tho Federal Arrh—True
to the Constitution and the Union as was her founder true
to the principles of civil and religious liberty, wh'ch he
established within her border. She is rich in the affections
of her children.”
This toast was responded to by Dr. Chas. Leib, who, it is
said, made one of the best speeches of the occasion :
Onr Invited Guests—although not Snnsof Pennsylvania,
they appreciate the missiou ofWm. l’enn, and bis disinter
ested buuevoleuce in the establishment of his colony.”
The Hon. S. A. Douglas was called upon for a response to
this, and in his usual happy style, dwelt largely and patri
otically upon the history and incidents of tho life of Wm.
Penn. The festival and ball is said to have been superior
to-anytbiug of the kind evor gotten up in Chicago, and
reflects great credit upon tho management, of which Dr.
Leib was chairman. Wo were extremely sorrv that
as great men say—“ circumstances over which we had no
control ” prevented us from attending.
Will tho “ Sons of Penn,” of your city, hurry up that
little affair they sumo time since gave a brief hint of?
W« have been absent on a hunting expedition the greater
part of the past week, and returned home on Saturday
night last. We hunted out Jefferson county, in this State,
and think we left nothing for “ seed.” as we killed every
thing we came across, and returned loaded with game.—
The most interesting part of tho expedition we will briefly
relate. One evening about dark, we came to a farmhouse,
and after filJiDg onr flasks with bad whiskey, and refresh
ing the inner man. we were told by tbc landlady an
Interesting widow—that a ball was coming off there, and
extended ua an invitation to remain and participate.—
Without any unnecessary pressing, or even waiting for a
second invitation, we accepted the hospitalities so kindly
proffered—took off our hunting arrangements, and bung
our game—which we had slaughtered during that day—on
the limb of an apple tree—washed our blood 6tained hands
and fixed up for the ball. Wo must hero st ite how they
get up balls in Jefferson county, Mo. The lady of the houßo
has three or four quilts to make—she invites all tho girls
of the neighborhood to her bouse to assist in their making
—they commence early in the morning and finish before
dark. The ladies work hard in anticipation of a glorious
time at the ball. But how do you think the gentlemen
are invited, and what they have to do os their share to
wards getting up the dance? Well, we will tell you.—
Whilst tho ladies are quilting at tho house and making tho
necessary preparations for the evening’s entertainment, tho
invitod gentlemen repair to tho woods, each providing
himself with an axe. and each cutting as his share, one
cord of wood—which a good wood-chopper can do in a few
hours. After this delicate task is done, he is at liberty to
to go to the house and court the girls the balance of the
day. We enquired how much wood they had cut that day,
•ad was told fourteen cords —quite sufficient to last the
winter out. Thus, you see “ that some things can be done
as well as others,'’ and tills is one way to get up a ball.—
There wore three of us in number, aud so soon as the
girls were apprised that we were going to remain and par
ticipate in tho festivities of the evening, they kept running
in and out of the house, all seemingly anxious to get a
peep at us, nnd each looking extremely modest and appear
ing very bashful. There were some, both ladies aud gen
tlemen, who could not make it convenient to be there
during the day, but who would rathor lose a span of their
existance than not be present at tho ball—came in squads
of two, three, four, Ac., and it was not long before the
house was full and each as “merry as a marriage bell,” and
longing for the commencement of the evonings performance.
Two fiddlers finally made their appearance and took their
positions on the stand erected for their convenience, in a
large room —the furniture having been all removed for tho
occasion; and upon the first draw of the bow each gentle
man, with his partner, entered the ball room. We were
then invited in and took our seats bosido a blazing fire.—
Tho ball commenced and away they went to tho tune of
“ Old Dan Tucker.” We .being strangers, of course were
not acquainted with the ladies—the gentlemen not know
ing our names, they no doubt felt somewhat of a delicacy in
approaching ns, and we thought to ourselves if wo did not
mako a more we would bo deprived of a dance, which we
by no means fancied. We mustered up courage to approach
a little Miss of about twelve summers, who very modeßtly
informed us that she would bo pleased to dance the next
. set. We thought this a first rate plan—to commence with
tho “ little ones,” and by degrees work into tho
of the older. We took our places, and whilst going through
the dance, learned from our fair little partner the names
of many of the ladies. Our inquiries were numerous—we
found out that our partner had a mother present—who
was a widow—and who she pointed out to us—was
very fond of dancing, Ac. We were now one ot tho party,
and notwithstanding our extreme modesty, we next ap
proached the widow, who very unceremoniously accepted
our hand for the next “quadrille.” And thus wo went
from one to the other, and found no difficulty iu always
procuring a partner. comrades sefciug the great success
with which I met on every 6ide, took np the plan and
carried it out triumphantly. That county is proverbial
lor widows—tho cause or the facts of which, wo are not
prepared to state. There were some five or six present,
and tbo most of whom, were what is generally termed
“interesting widows.” From-the little Mies we approached
the widow, and from the widow the dashing, blußhing
girls, just blooming into womanhood. About 12 o'clock
wo were all called out to supper, and a most boontiful one it
was too; the festive board groaning under the weight of
the rich products of Jefferson county. We commenced
dancing about 8 o’clock, aud continued, without a half
hour’s intermission until 6 o’clock the next morning—
some time after day-light, and must say it was the most
pleasant party we have attended since our sojourn in the
West. A Mr. Donelly, formely of Lancaster, now a con
tractor on the Iron Mountain Railroad, was present, and
eDjoyed himself, as he says, “ hugely.” We loft the. house
and continued our hunt, and the music—the sonl stirring
strains of the violin still rings in our ears. These parties
are frequent in that section, and as we have become pretty
well acquainted with the girls, they promise to send us
invitations to all their winter soirees.' And thus ended our
hunt.
Dr. N. B. Wolfe has associated with hi” Dr. Sewell, n
gentleman of considerable professional ability, and hare
fitted up rooms on 4th street, where they contemplate
treating diseases of the throat and lungs. They have also
commenced the publication of a Monthly Medical Journal,
called the Stethoscope, the first uumber of which made its
appearance on Saturday last. It is a very neat little sheet,
and edited with great ability. We have known Dr. Wolfe
for many years, aud have no doubt that his knowledge,
with that of his partner,\of the diseases which they propose
to treat, that much good'to suffering humanity will bo the
result of their labors.

“The Collector of New York, and others
capable of giving reliable information, state
that it is their opinion the receipts at New

weeks hence to the rate of $lOO,OOO a day, and
that the receipts at other ports will increase
in proportion. In this event, then, there will
exist no necessity for the Government to ne

Cooper, were out hunting, and had separated
in the woods, the one going np the moajpt&in
and the remaining below. On ap
proaching again, and when within but abhort
distance of each other, the father espied a
pheasant in a parallel line with his son*! and,
wishing to shoot it, he requested him to stand
to one side. This the young man readily
complied with, when the father took aim and
fired, and one shot, which is supposed tojjhave
glanced from a tree, struck the former in his
left eye penetrating the brain. The young
man cried out, “Oh ! father, what you
done ?” and immediately dropped insensible
to the ground. He lingered until Saturday
morning, insensible all the time, when he
breathed his last. He was a young jj man
about 23 years of age, and leaves a widow and
two children to mourn his loss. Of lajie he
had been a resident of Harrisburg, but |l hav

Indian Affairs In Utah—Coramnnicl.tlon
from Brigham Young,
Washington, “Nov. s. —Brigham Young, in
a communication to tho Indian Bureau; says
that if ho is to have the direction of Ipdian
Affairs, and is expected to maintain friendly
relations with the Indians, he would suggest
that travellers should omit the infamous
practice of shooting them when they happen
to see one. Hence it is natural that] they
wreak vengeance in retaliation. The govern
ment should make more liberal presents!! lie
has proven that it is far cheaper to feed and
clothe the Indians, than to fight them.
the fighting is over, it is always followed by
expensive presents, which, if properly distrib
uted in the first instance, might have averted
the fight. j
The troops, he also says, must be kept&way,
for it is a fact, that wherever are the most of
these, there we may expect to find the gijbatest
amount of hostile Indians, and the leasll secu
rity to persons and property. If these'fitems
be complied with, he has no hesitation in
saj’ing, that so far as Utah is concerned, no
Indians would molest the persons or property
of travellers. He says that the Department
has often manifested its approval of man
agement of Indian affairs, and never its
disapproval, and why should he be subjected
to such annoyances in regard to funds for
paying expenses, and why denied his salary?
Why should the appropriations for the benefit
of the Indians of Utah be retained In the
treasury, and individuals left unpaid?—
These are questions, he says, I leave far you
to answer at your leisure, and in the [{mean
while submit to such a course in relation
thereto, as you shall see fit to direct. :!
Plenty to Eat. ,j
A correspondent of tho Newark jDaily,
writing from Allamuchy, Warren co., f?. Jer
sey, says : j!
“The yield of butter here is truly enormous.
Never were there so many pounds of tjjat ar
ticle produced—and of such a fine quality.
But little of it has yet reached the market,
the farmers having waited for higher prices ;
they thought that by this time it could Ipe sold
for twenty-eight, twenty-nine and thirty cents
per pound ! but are just finding out their mis
take.; and next week and the week after will
find the market flooded with fine butter, and
the holders willing to take 14 to 18 ceints per
pound. Most of the grain has been withheld
from market waiting for higher prices: also ;
but the mistake is being found out, ;j and it
seems that every one is now busy preparing it
for market, before larger quantities from more
distant parts will further reduce the prjice.
The barns are overflowing with grain, and
the barn yards and fields contain numerous
Btocks of grain and hay. jj
I might also mention that there is now,
within the above district, more fat cattle ready
and more preparing for market, than eyer be
fore ; the only drawback being from the cattle
growers not knowing how the banks stand, or
what money to take at the present time!. The
writer found one man who was anxious for
the sale ot over two hundred fat cattle now,
and of as many more by the firs: of January/’
This is encouraging to those whip have
“nothing to eat.” The only is that
we don’t know where the money is burning
from to buy at the reduced prices. jj

To tbe Public.—On tbc 20th lost., a
card of mine was published in the dally papers of this city,
in relation to the award of the Judges of the recent Comity
Fair, on Dental Instruments, which I believed was calcu
lated to make a wrong impression respecting the utility of
my instrument*. I, therefore felt called upon to plaee
myself right before the publie: and in this I had no desire
to detract from the real or assumed merits of any operator
in my profession; and I felt perfectly willing that Meagre.
Welchens A Prigg should entertain their own opinion of
theirs. But their notions respecting the process and util
ity of silver plating, is as singular as it is new, and if true,
would result in dispensing with all silver plating, and tbe
universal substitute of steel and iron polish !
In reply to my card they assert that my case contains
only 83 instruments, while the fact is, it contains one hun
dred and seventy bandied instruments—more than double
the number they give. They also say that I called to see
Mr Prigg’s instruments, and had mine manufactured to
his patterns. After Mr. Prigg opened an office in tliis city,
I saw it stated in the Inland Daily, that be was a graduate
of the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, when my assis
tant (Dr. Swentzel,) and myself, in the spirit of profesrional
; etiquette, called upon him; but aft-r a shortcoaversation,
we discovered that he was not a graduate, nor had he even
been a student of that or any similar Institution. As a
relief from this dilemma, we were suddenly invited to
look at his instruments, only ooe of which was taken into
my hands; and that an instrument never used by me, it
being superseded by others more practical.
Onr call was a very short one, aud we leave it for the
reader to judge whether I could, by a hasty glance, take
patterns of instruments lying in a case, so as to instruct a
mechanic to copy after them.
By a letter received from Baltimore, Saturday morning,
31st ult I learn that Mr. Prigg is not even authorized to
refer to the Professors of Dental Burgery in the Baltimore
College. The following is an extract from the letter“ As
to Prigg—Harris, Austin and Blandy, all say he la not au
thorized to refer to them.”
But l should not have referred to these misreproKeota-
Hodb. but allowed them to have passed in silence, had it
not been for the appearance of the fo lowing card published
in the Express and other papers of this city:
TO. THE PUBLIC.
Having been called opon by the Judges of the late Agri
cultural and Mechanical Fair at this place, who gave their
awards to Dr. John Waylan and Messrs. Welchens A Prigg,
for cases of Dental Instruments, exhibited by them, the
Judges, feeling as they do, that Dr. Waylan, in his card to
the public of the 19th inst., calls into questloil their hones
ty, ability and disposition to do him justice, by awarding
to Weleheas A Prigg a diploma tW the “best case of Dental
Instruments for practical use.” while they awarded to him
a Diploma but for "fineness of finish of Dental Instruments
claiming that he should have had a Diploma fur the best
case of Instruments for practical use, instead of that award-
ed—
Now. we. the undersigned Dentists of this place, having
examined the two cases of Dental Instruments Id question,
feel no hesitation in saying that we fully concur In tbe
decision and awards of the Judges upon them, as the cases
and Instruments need but the slightest examination, to
decide that Dr. Prigg’s case of lustruments i sfar sup-rior,
in our estimation, for practical use.

1 confess surprise at the appearance of the above card, aa
I am uot sensible of ever having given any of the signers
nf it the least cause to justify an attempt' to injure me, if
possible, by misrepresentation. I was also astonished to
learn by it. that the Jndges had pursued such a course.—
It seomed impossible that intelligout and honorable men
should take such a step.; as auy one will perceive that to
constitute a proper tribunal, both parties should be allowed
to select meu iu whose judgement aud impartiality they
could confide, and feeling that the whole matter was
either a gross misrepresentation, or a glaring act of injus
tice, I resolved to ascertain the facts, and to know how far
the signers of the card were coriect in their statement,
that, “Having been called upon by the Judges,” Ac., they
gave it as their opinion, that, “Dr. Prigg’s ease of Instru
ments is far superior for practical usa.” All tbe Judges,
therefore, except one, have been seen, and they positively
deny haviug either “called upon” the signers of tho above
card, or desired auy of them to make the above statement.
And in respect to tbe ooe not seeu, I have been informed
by good authority, that he haa not seen aay of the Dentists
since the Fair. This fully establishes the fact, that tho
above card is a deliberate and wanton falsification from
beginning to end. and I leave it to the public to judge ot
tbe motives that induced it; and if, moreover, proves mi
questionably, that the signers of the card referred t«>, wen*
induced to the act by rankling malevolence, or that they
have been gressty imposed upon by some interested party,
who managed, throngh misrepresentation and fraud, to use
them. But even if the latter be the case. I can not conceive
how they can say that, “having been called upon by the
judges,” Ac., wheu no such call had been made upon them!
But it is uot necessary to comment upon 60 palpable a mis
representation. A discriminating public will view tbe
matter iu its propel* light.
The signers <>f the card alao assert that they "have exam
ined tho two cases of Dental Instruments iu question.”—
Now, it so happens, that with a single exception, not one
of thorn haa ever “examined” my case of Instruments—and
that r me pronounced them superior to Mr. Prigg’s, aud
1 but for the cost would have a set like them,” —which
statement I cau readily show; and it seems strange that
he should change bis epinion bo suddenly. The others
might have seen them in passing with the crowd at tho
Fair; but I am prepared to show that they never “exam
ined” them there or elsewhere. And they could not have
knowu, that some of tbe very fiuest and rnofct costly of
them hive been in c-mstant use by me for more thau ten
years.
I will add the following aud thou dismiss the subject.—
Messrs. Welchens A Prigg, in their card, referred to the
Cheoplastic Princess, inveutod by Dr. Blandy, of Baltimore,
with a sneer, as “tha new Horn Cheoplasty, ground out ot
the Now York Tooth Manufacturing Co.”
By the letter from Baltimore, referred to before, 1 learn
that notwithstanding the apparent contempt in which they
hold the Cheoplastic diecovery, they have unsuccessfully
eodeavored to obtain the right to use it of the patentee,
although they knew that I am the solo agout tor it in this
district. The following is an extract of the lettor referred
to:
“He (Prigg) was here some weeks ago, and wanted O
buy a right on credit. 1 told Blandy that he (Prigg) must
be referred to you; that we had no right to sell ia youi
district; and he did so. J. WHKELRIGHT.”
With the promulgation of this fact, 1 take leave of th*
matter. JOHN WAYLAN.

43~Dr. Waylan's Note.--In our joint re
ply to the note of Dr. Waylan, we intimated that, whatever
was done by the Judges of the late Fair to cause dissatis
faction upon the part of Dr. Waylan, he bad no cause or
right to indulge iu personalities toward us, as we had Ho
controlling influence over their actions. And, bnt for that,
unkind remark concerning us, we should never have ap
peared in reply to him. The position in which he plnred
himsolf bv that silly and imprudent act, has bo effectually
sickened'him that, like the writhing viper, with a lieel
up*m its head, he gathers np the remaining energies of his
sickly existeoce to liberate himself—but for a single mo
ment —again to strike, if possible, the fatal wound, before
he receives his final quietus.
If Dr. Waylan had the ability to ascertain, throngh the
boating of the public pulse, the amazing fever of disgust
and ridicule which rages around him in the public miud,
in regard to his first imprudent step in this fruitless con
troversy, he would not have added bitterness to contempt
in tho degrading effort ho has more recently made to redeem
the popular esteem he had previously lost. There is, how
ever, a noble tribunal in the higher motives and finer
feelings of society, which rises above the petty jealousies
of professions and the ordinary contentions of society, to
which we would carry this cobo, nnd for the present, treat
those low personalities with their merited silent coutempt.
We have, however, a professional honor' to vindicate, and
when that is called into question—whether in a dignified
, way or through low personalities—we deem it a duty to
take care of that, which is to take care of ourselves, per
sonally, and all our loved ones at home.
Dr. Prigg, against whom the whole force of Dr. Waylan’s
last engine of warfare has been directed, has not long been
a resident of our city; but in the short space of time he has
been here, by his honest, gentlemanly deportment, has
drawn around him many warm and admiring friends.—
Feeling certain, through conversation, as well as many un
mistakeable evidences of hifi superior ability as a Dentist,
and still more, a scientific man, I took him into partner
ship with me in my practice, considering it a mutual bon
fit; and so long as I know him to be immeasurably above
tho low imputations cast upon him by the recent effort of
Dr. Waylan, I feel bound, by all the ties of noble fellow
ship, to resent, with merited indignation, the injury which
a false representation, arising from the small matter of Dr.
Waylan’s child-like contending for superiority in having a
better case of instruments than Dr. Prigg, might cast upon
him.
Dr. Prigg in no instance, by no remark either directly
or indirectly, led any person to suppose thkt he was a grad
uate of the Baltimore College, and even told Dr. Waylan
lio was not before be made his professional visit of “profes
sional etiquette” (?) to Dr. Prigg’s office. And, in regard
to bis authority to use the names of some of tbe Professors
of the College, it is not fair to suppose that be would be
guilty of such glaring presumption as to do so without their
consent. Dr. Prigg for two years or more enjoyed the uios t
intimate and abiding confidence of these very men; and
since his stay in Lancaster, has received, letters repeatedly
from Dr. Blandy, in which the utmost confidence sgjd frind
ship toward him was expressed, and over and over again
received their warmest approval of his professional abilities,
and their cheerful willingness to allow him to use their
names as reference. Now one of two things must be true
in this matter: Either Dr. Waylan (or his informant in
Baltimore) has placed himself in the position of a miserable
calumniator, or those men have been basely acting hypo
critically toward him—conduct which we cannot think
possible in men of their standing and respectability.
In regard to the note published and signed by the Den
tists of this city, I would say that his surmisings are a
miserable abortion at an attempt to fasten inconsistency
and calumny upon tbe whole profession in this place. It
was the desire of the Judges, that the note referred to
should be published; and the gentlemen whose names are
appended to that note were not actuated by “rankling ma
levolence,” as has been falsely asserted, but with a desire
to sustain what their knowledge and experience in regard
to dental instruments led them to feel was a just and
righteous decision. But to show the great love of truth
and consistency in our insidious, twisty friend, I will
remark in reply to his haying seen all the Judges, that there
are four of the committee of Judges of the Eleventh Class
living in Ibis city. Dr. Waylan has consulted none of them
in this matter, and we can scarcely suppose that the other
three, living twelve miles in tbe country, would be bunted
up for that purpose. I notice this point as one of the evi
dences of tbe amazing disgust this man has for “rankling
malevolence,” ahd that which is basely false, superlatively
little, and profoundly mean. I would ask Dr. Waylan why
It is that he does not appear in personalities toward the
mau who heads that list of names L He has given him more
provocation for such a course than Dr. Prigg. If he did,
he would very soon discover that there is some force in the
old adage, that “persons living in glass houses should not
throw stones,” for there are facts and letters in the posses
sion of certain individuals in this community that, if pub
lished, they would make Lancaster too hot for Dr. Waylan
to live in.
The Doctor has forced \is to an explanation of what we
meant by the “new-born Cheop’asty, ground out by the
New York Tooth Manufacturing Company." This is not a
“sneer” upon the merits of this new process, but npoo his
bringing work from abroad to exhibit here as his own. We
have reason to believe that the work was not manufactured
by himself, but by the New York Tooth Manufacturing
Company. Admissions from certain quarters to this effect
are sufficient to confirm this supposition. We were led to
the supposition by tbe circumstance of a nicely gilded case
of Cheoplaatic work being shown to nearly all the dentists
in tbe city. This case wan represented as ready for the
mouth, and u>as to be inserted by Dr. Waylan in the mouth
of one of his patients next morning , barely time being allowed
to run around to show it. This same case was recognized in
Baltimore not long since, and was acknowledged to have been
in Lancaster awhile for exhibition, and furthermore, that
it was the work of the Kew York Tooth Manufacturing Cb?)i<
pany.
But in conclusion (and I will beg pardon of my readers
for the remark) I will say that I spurn with loathing and
disgust the false and malicious calumny of our ever seeking
to purchase the right to use this Cheoplastic process, from
Dr. Waylan, Dr. Blandy, Mr.- Wheelwright or any other
living man. From the very beginning, after ascertaining
what it really waa I asserted repeatedly to a number of in
dividuals, that instead of giving one hundred dollars for
the patent, 1 would not give one hundred cents for it. And
upon Dr. Prigg visiting Baltimore some time ago, he was
so strongly nrged to take it by Dr. Blandy, that he was
forced incidentiy to say that he could not afford to purchase
it even had he the disposition so to do. At this time Dr.
Blandy w*as not aware of Dr. Waylan having purchased the
right for the cily and county of Lancaster from Mr. Wheel
wright; and upon being told that such was tha case by
Dr. Prigg, he went to see Mr. Wheelwright, and upon find
ing it to be correct, expressed deep regret at the circum
stance, and still contended that we must have it. I, of
course, cannot be responsible for what Dr. Prigg might
have said while in Baltimore, but I most solemnly assert
that never at any time did we agree even to take the right
to use it in our office, much less to send to Baltimore to
purchase it from the Patentee when we knew he could not
sell it to us.
I am now done with Dr. Waylan, believing that, although
strong in some points, sufficient provocotion was given to
demand a reply of this character. I would, however,
farther state that prudence would seem to dictate a milder
and more circumspect course for him to pursue in tbe
future, if he would have regard to self-interest and self
respect. 8. WELCHENB.

any heretofore issued. The enlarged scale of the work will
admit of the great advantage of clearly designating every

thereto; also, of ascertaining with more piecision, any re

Hoad and Stream, Mill, Mill Race and Mill Dam, Store
Hotel, Post Office, Place of Worship, School 119U60, Smith

Dwellings also, with the names of owners **

and Plans of the Boroughs and principal Villages, will be
nserted in the margin. A Table, showing the correct die
tance from each place of importance to that of e^® r y other
in the county, will be upon the Map; also, a Statistical
Table, and views of the principal County Buildings.
Without a re-survey of the whole county, an accurate
map of it cannot he published; we have already made sur
veyfibf a a number of the Townships, and many of the in
habitants of the county are aware of the time and pains we
have taken to perfect them. We will bo equally assiduous
in our endeavors to make this a reliable and valuable work,
