But no sooner had he done t` o , than the balance of his mind began to give I+.lt•, and in the equrse of a week, his ill-ad vi,ed step so preyed upon him as to cause in szni ty of the worst form.

The recent commercial disasters that have ,overtaket other States in ' which Banks- have enjoyed the largest liberty which a so•called "liberal policy" could allow, should serve to warn us'of the danger to which we are exposed. The imitation of their example will inevitably lead us to the same evil results, be it sooner or later. But the action of the Legislature thus far, gives . us little to hope for. and everything to fear.. Should the salutary restrictions which Democratic.policy has long striven to throw around the business of bank. ing, for its own safety, and for the protection of the people. and which Democratic Clover• nom have- endeavored consistently to enforce, be abandoned by the present Administration— :ls there is abundant cause to apprehend—the people of Pennsylvania will be fated to learn a hitter lesson of tho fully of seeking a change of rulers upon every trifling pretext . which demagogues mny seize upon to serve their own sinister purposes.
