I.HFLUENtid OF A NEWSPAI'EH . A school teacher who has been engaged a lone time in bis profession, and witnessed the influence of a newspaper upon the minds of a family of children, writes to the editor of tbe Ogdeusborg Sentinel us follows: "1 have found it to be a universal fuct with out exception, that those tcholurs of bolb sexes and oi u II uges, who have bad access to newspapers at borne, when compared with those who have not, are 1. Better reuders, excelling in pronuncia tion and emphasis, and consequently read mora understanding. 2. Tbey are butter spellers and defius word with greater ease and accuracy. 3. They obtain a practical knowledge of geography, in almost naif tbe time it requires Others, as the newspaper has made them fu milliar with the location of the important places, nations, their Governments and do ings on the globe. 4.

THE DUTCHMAN A.D THE PAMC. Everybody will remember the "money pan c" tbey bad at San Francisco some years since and the stcry "John Pbccnix" used to leu oi its etlects individually illustrated. Before the fright, a frugal old Dutchmau, by dint of bard labor, bad accumulated soma $500, which he cautiously deposited iu one of iu. uauaiug uouses lor sale keeping. Uuuior oon came to bis ears that they were not eery sale some said that ibey had ' broke." Next moruiug, be tremblingly drew his bal auce aud put tbe shining gold iu bis pocket. He breathed decidedly freer, but here was a dilemma. What should be do with it? lie did not dare to keep it in bis shauty aud as for carrying it about him, 'twas too precious heavy. So, after a sleepless night or two in constant apprehuusion of burglars be de posited it in another "banking otlice." Ano ther day tbe panic increased there wus a run ou bis bank he pushed iu drew bis gold aud felt easier once more. Another anxious duy aud night for his "uionish," and gain it wus deposited in a safe bauk. Tbis time be frll safer than ever before, and went quietly to bis work. But tbe panic reached that bank, and anxious depositors besieged tbe door Myuheer beard the news, and put post-haste, book in hand, for the scene of action jammed in wilh the crowd drew his gold, new aud bright put it safe in his cor duroys aud was happy once more but here was tbe dilemma agaiu where to put it.

The editor of the Philadelphia North Am. rican, ander the above title, writet it follows on the better time coming. A crash or crisis of tome kind was leng tiuce expected. .Nothing; else would bring people to tbelr tenses. Speculation and extravagance bad run riot. After a general clearing up things will move on mora orderly iv Any man who has just views of financial affaire, and who will calmly consider the ventt of tbe present crisis the condition of the banks, or tbe people and or the country at large with respect to what all these were in 1837, can bardly fail to see that gloomy views of the future are not justified by any tacit oi wuicn we nave a knowledge. All thit hat before end repeatedly been nrged, whilst the public mind wus agitated by the threatened suspension of . specie payments ; and perhaps now, that the worst ia known, It may be pressed with grtater effect. ire more than ever confident that circumstances have not justified tbe wild panic that has pre vailed and bat sent ordinarily reasonable men on a stampede, like a picket of freightened norset let loose, or liko tue headlong tramp of a herd of hunted buffaloes. And we are equally confident that any une who will im purtially review the occurrences of the last two mouths will be ol the same opinion. It is generally conceded that it wot nothing but tbe removal of the conbdence tbat bad uitn erto propped np the extensive transactions of the Country that precipitated the crash at tbe precise time when it took place. Every one taw that reverses of tome kind roust come, and come suddenly, aud be severe, un less greut judgment nnd caution were used in the curtailment of business, and of enterprises too extensive in character for our means. And it was also foreseen that, let inch cur tailment be at judiciout as it might, still there was many a bubble that from its very nature mutt explode, bringing disaster to tome. But no one could by any possibility have fore known that the pressure would be to sudden and to heavy as to bring rum, and especlall to bring it iu tbe fuce of the beat crops th country has ever produced, and in pretence of mo weuiio mat exists aniongBl us. in truth pauic did it all punic which could not have beeu foreseen or foretold, because it has no reasonable or logical ground of existence, but it me mere creature of impulse. lial ronli: it bo but panic and a enure lest alarm, that have rendered wholly una vailabie the most valuable and undoubted assets, compelling houses with abundant means to suspend payment in order to realize ou tbeir property? There was no drain ol specie abroad to alarm people, and set them 10 runuing ou the banks ; there wus nothing to call for a contraction of loans in three weeks that required three or six months to oe euected without distress to borrowers yet the alarm came; the run on the banks came ; the contraction came ; and at a matter of course the distress followed. Bat we be. lieve that with the suspension of the bauks lue worst is over. Already so great a eon traction of business has taken place that it cannot remain in its low stale, even during the present winter. An evidence of the great fulling off in business is evinced by the small transactions at the New Yoik clearing bouse. But it does not seem probable that this can exist much longer. So soon as tbe crops begin to move there must be more activity in trade. The arrival of a little gold from England, it is tot unlikely would be the signal, and give tue impetus to a renewed business. Old scores would, to a considerable extent, be wiped out, and buyers agaiu be lounu lor ury pood?, groceries, and ull the necessaries of lire. It is only doubtful enter piises. or enterprises of great magnitude, railroad construction and so on, that are likely to remain suspended for some time to come. In view of the wealth existing in tbe country, and of the bunyanry and spirit of our people, who are not discouraged by mis fortunes and reverses, we feel sure that ordi nary bnsiness transactions will be resumed shortly. Those who know themselves solvent had better make arrangements fur this, and keep themselves prepared for it. In such times as we have fulleu on, if money is easily lost it is also easily earned, aud is the prize of the sound judgment and the strong nerve. The suspended banks will, doubtless, now extend to their customers that assistance which it was impossible for them to grant whilst a steady drain was being made on their vaults ; and the market cannot fail to be relieved by tbe withdrawal from it and suspension of many lnrge concerns, who were constant borrowers, abstracting from the regular trades. Of course, wo must yet look lor some failures ol importance. We cannot expect, either, to get over the crisis without some of those exposures of fraud or misman agement which always follow monetary revul sions. But there is every iudication that the worst is over, and the storm has spent its greatest violence. iStlTtl"oVVHSVEVrilT t WBr - IttT O .Ull.HO- IU Ml'H A few data sinre we stated that two natives of Western Pennsylvania the Rev.

His graduating speech is spoken of to this day by llii .t who heard it as worthy of the imm..rlal Prentiss in his palmiest days and probably not snrpussd by any subsequent effort of Ins own.

Mr. I.jsle I.od- wick, of the firm of Lodwick & Allen, import ers of pnper-banginps, arrived bete this eve ning Irom 1 uuucuu, kv, where his presence created qnite a popular comiiibtinb. Mr. Lodwick visited t'uilucah lor the pur pose of drawing out of thn Commercial Bank nf Kentucky, there located, ?12,000iu golJ, in exchange tor bills ol that oank. lie is no broker, and his object was mertly to save himself from loss, through the high rates of exchnnge. He was obliged to have conside rable ol that, and by drawing tue specie, with the notes in his possession, would save hi in a loss of seme $4110 an object worth contend ing for uow-a days, most ussuredly. On arriving at Paducuh, he left his pack age of notes at the Bank, iuti iulitig to call again for his gold. .Going to his hotel, ho was approached by some citizens, who in quired the object of his visit to Paducuh. He frankly told them. I hey told him lu would not be allowed to take one cent of specie out of the Bunk, and that he had better leave town on the first boat. Mr. L. c.x postulated wilh them for' half an hour, but nil to un pur pose. He then returned to thu Hank, follow ed by a crowd, which accumulated at every step, and which became very clamorous. Arriving ut the Bank, thu Cashier informed Mr. Lodwick that liis specie was ready, aud that the Bank was happy to accommodate him. The crowd, however, told him he should not touch a farthing of it. He was entirely surrounded l.y a cljmorous crowd, evidently disposed to commit personal vio lence, though the merchant is a .nan filly fie years of uge. and infirm at that. Indeed he would have been struck down by a cane, but for the prompt interference of Mr. Bowman, one of the editor of that city. M r. Lodwick endeavored to reason with the crowd; told tbem he was no broker, that his business was perfectly legitimate, Ac, but it was of no use. He then made his way to the house of Watts, Given & Co., and held a private in terview wilh one of the firm. He asked hi advice, and received in reply, "Take the first boat if you want to escape a ducking." Mr. Lodwick asked if the respectable peo ple of Puducah upheld the movement, and was told that they did. He inquired for city officers, with whom he miiil.t consult, but could tlml none. The crowd finally took pos session of him, conducted him buck to the Commercial Bank, and niadu him withdraw the paper money ho hud deposited. The Cashier of the Bank was present and rebuked tbe crowd. He told them the Bank was well prepared to meet every demned, and did not want uny interference with it business. He offered Mr. Lodwick the specie, and entreat ed him to take it. but he dare not do it, so bold weie the threats of those present. He then offered to take a draft ou Cincinnati, but the mob for such it was refused to al low even tbut. They kept strict guard over him until he withdrew thu money he had de posited, aud theu ordered bim to leave on the hist bout, lie did so glud to leave the place with whole bones. Before be left the Bunk, however, the Cashier told him to go to Louisville, aud arraiigemeuts would be uiude tor the redemption of the notes in bis pes session As 1 before remarked, he arrived here this evening, hiuhly incetistd at the treatment be received. Later. Since the above was written other persons have arrived from Paducah.
