NEW BANKS.
We observe that new banks organized
tinder the National Bonking Law of Secre
tary Chase, arc springing tip around up. At
Mifilinburg, Union comity, one lu.s been or
ganized, and our neighbors of Belinsgrovc,
we loam, 711 u agitating tlio matter for one at
that plaee. At Milton, la this county, one
was ornani.-nl on Saturday last, the ofuVcrs
of which are, ,T. Woods Brown, Esq., Presi
dent, and ,3. D. Jordan, Esq., Caidiicr. All
this speaks well for the financial policy of
Mr. Mm-oln administration. . But the great
danger is that we may have too muclieven
of n good thing, though that evil will neces
sarily correct itself. If n bank is located
where there is not sufficient business.
or
where its business must be limited by com

r1" "" ""in ie iiKe a mm ouiit in a
sparse settlement the grists though few,
may bo well ground, but the miller will
never grow rich. The fact, however, that
stteb. radical, and we might say, rtibid, poli
ticians, of the Woodward branch of the
Democrat party, should be found thus
early, not only approving of, but endorsing
tho financial measures of Secretary Chase,
by investing their means and showing their
entire confidence in his "greenbacks,"' must
be as gratifying to the friends of that able
Statesman, as it should be humiliating to
many of the blind disciples of the partj,
who were told by some of the leaders and
speakers at the great Woodward gntbering
nt this place, that greenbacks possessed no
more Value thau the Woodward badges that
vere scattered broadcast amongst them.
But we arc glad to see this returning senso
of reason in our erring political friends.
There are 110 better securities in the world
than those of our government, and when we
find those who denounce its financial policy
most, investing their means in its securities,
the masses may well shrug their shoulders,
nod ask whether any confidence can be
placed in professed politicians, whose busi
ness is to nuuibtig the masses, hunting after
ofbee, and making voters believe they alone
oogut to fill them.
EtTIn 1854, nt the adjournment of the
State Senate, Mr. B. D. Ilamlin was elected
Speaker. The Democrats, when the Legis
lature rc-asscmblcd in 1835, had the majori
ty, but Mr. Buckalew, who had been ap
pointed by the President bearer of despatches
to South America, did not take his scat.
owing to the failure of the vessel, iu which
be had sailed for home, to arrive iu time.
This would have tied the Senate ; but the
majority was given to the Opposition by the
death of another member. Thus, the Senate,
us elected by the people, stood 17 Democrats
t 10 Opposition; but. uurelv bv accident.

Mr. Darsie, of Aiieuhenv countv nrevented
an election, and balloting continued for
several days. Mr. Buckalew still failing to
arrive, Mr. Darsie then declaring that the
Prtnocrats were entitled to the Speakership,
magnanimously voted to that efl'ect. Mr.
Win. M. Ileister, of Berks county was elect
ed Speaker, and the Senate organized. The
voice of the people approved this action,
end when the first heat of party contest had
passed away it was approved by all the best
men of either party in the Semite. The
present, situation of the Senntc is almost
identical with that we have cited. Tho
question, it must be remembered, has noth
ing to do with the principles of either party ;
it is simply whether the will of the people is
to be tct aside by a minority.

The members elect of both lioures assem
bled in the Capitol on Tuesdav lai. The
House of Ucprc?n.tutivcs was duly organi- j
zed by the election of It. C. Johnson, of
Crawfoid county, as Speaker, and A. W.
Benedict, of Huntingdon, as Clerk. In the
fcenato the factious opposition of the leading j
Copperheads shows a determination to pre
vent an organization. By the returns of the
last election, the Senate should staiid 17
Union to 10 Opposition, but the rebel hav
mg'capturcd Major White, one of the Sena
tors elect, hold him a prisoner of war at
Itk'liuiond. This makes the parties a tie,
13 to 10. . JcX Davis refutes to exchange
Major White, on the ground that bis eon- j
foemcnt will prevent an organization of j
tUc Senate nnd enable his sympathizing ,
friends in that body to stop the wheels of;
government' nnd embarrass both State and '
National administrations. The Legislature !
is, therefore, at a dead lock, and no business !
caa be done. Thus matters stand ut present j
a 6tate ot aftairs that must be highly grat
ifying to tho rebels in Dixie, and their
friend in tlio Nrntb, if to no one else.

W Tno ratEBror.NT's Mgfsaoc The
President lias addressed a short messago to
Congress In which he advise a reconsidera
tion of the law paying a bounty of $300
veteran volunteers up to the 5th of Sununry,
earnestly recommending that the timo be
extended to February 1st. To this message
are appended the arguments from the Secre
tary of War showing that the people prefer
the voluntary system of raiding troops, and
that Veterans, even when paid a bounty, are
arc a cheaper and betier force than raw re
cruits or drafted men. A communication
f.'uvi the provost marshal represents the cn
cournghig success of tlio volunteer plan, ft
success only to be'ehe'dked by the present
limit of time allow ing bounty. Under these
circumstances, Congress will not hesitate to
approve the President's suggestion, nnd the
draft will bo postponed, we trust, beyond re
call, by the success of volunteering uudcr
bounty. In this result the Government and
country will be fortunate.
Iktehestiko to Miners. The Scientific
American has the following piece of infor
mation interesting to miners :
We have received a letter from Jlr, Alex
ander Ktihc, editor of the Hamburg Uewer
keblatt, in which he states that, by some
effort, he would lie able to induce, from 4,000
to 0,000 experienced miners of Saxony,
Hanover, &c, to emigrate to the United
States, if such guruiintees would bo given
to them as to make it sure that they could
find employment immediately upon arriving
here. Wo publish this fact in order to
enable proprietors of coal mine3 in this coun
try to avail themselves of the opportunity,
and to make an effort to obtain a supply of
experienced hands, which they appear to be
greatly in need of at the present time. Any
letters relating to this mutter, addressed to
Mr. lbibe, w e think will bo promptly attend
ed to by that gentleman. Ve are not per
eonly acquainted with the gentleman, but
he refers to the American Consul ut that
port.

In a masterly manner Mr. Walker exhibits
to the people of Kurope the difference in

experience by emigrating, to the United
States ; summing up thus;
'For centuries tliut arc past, and for nil

and disfranchisement, would seem to be his

One of the most important Government
eases ever worked up in this city was com
pleted at a late hour on Saturday night, nnd
lias resulted in the seizure of about $0,000,
000 in Confederate bonds, $1,000,000 in
Confederate Treasury notes, nnd a large
quantity of dies, printing presses, lathes,
unci other machinery for doing fine bank
note engraving. The history or tho eirv,c
from beginning to end is full of incident,
nnd the measures taken by Marshal Murray
to ferret the mattter out nnd bring to justice
the parties implicated arc highly crtdinible
to the skill of that officer und the efficiency
of his aids. The services of Chief Young, of
the Metropolitan Detective force, and of
Detective Smith, now of the Marshal's orlicc,
were also invaluable in securing the.jjersons
engaged in the transaction, and the docu
mentary and niechauical evidences of their
guilt.
The first information obtained by tho
Government of Ibn matter was through a
letter intercepted on ilj way South by the
War Department. This letter gave the
names of parties in New York vho had here
engaged in the business, and this informa
tion was lodged with Marshal Murray, about
two days ago, with special instructions to
spare neither time nor expense to ferret cut
the mutter nnd arrest the parties. The
principal party named was Winthrop K.
Hilton, ft printer, doing businers nt No. 11
Spruce street, and who resides in Forty
ninth street. As this individual nnd bis
place of business were unlamiliar to tho
Marshal, u skillful detective was selected to
ascertain something about both. It would
hurdly be wise to publish the exact mefhod
adopted by this capital ollicer in arriving at
the information desired, but it was certainly
ingenious, and nttnined the very best results.
The office was visited under excuse of busi
ness, ull its occupants noted, and their de
scriptions taken down and handed to the
Marshal's men, who from that time out fol
lowed each and every one of the principals,
day nnd night unceasingly, until the case
was consumuted.
On the 31st of December matters were
ripened so that several arrests were made
simultaneously. Hilton and another party
named Williams, were traced to nil estab
lishment ut the corner of Ann anil Gold
streets, over a lager beer saloon. Here they
were found to go several times a day, and
ni soon as the Marshal had secured' these
men, he organized his forces into sections,
despatched one posse to the above place and
took possession, and another to No. 11
Spruce street. At the corner of Ann nnd
Gold streets, several tine lithographic stones
were discovered for printing $100, $.10 and
$1 Confederate notes. It being late nt night
a guard was placed over the Spruce street
concern, with strict orders to allow no ouc
to pass in or out. It became apparent at
this stage of the proceedings that n large
number of parties were implicated in the
manufacture of these notes and bonds, nnd
the Marshal called in to bis assistance Chief
John Young, of the Metropolitan Detective
force, and, aided by him and Detective
Smith nnd the other ollicers, consummated
the business.
At two o'clock on New Year's morning
the exertions of the ollicers were rewa (led,
and a portion of the machinery, consisting
of a geometrical lathe, and u large number
of dies and plates, were discovered in a room
in 1'ark row. Captain Mills, of the Second
1'recinet, aided considerably in this discov
ery. The room was entered forcibly, and
in the room w here the machinery was stored
was found between $5,000,000 and $G.0OO.
00O worth of Confederate bonds, printed
and ready for signature, aud $1,000,000 in
Confederate money. The detectives then
went on track of the proprietor of the place,
and by eight o'clock in the evening had
him in custody. He proved to be cutiielv
innocent of any complicity in the matter,
having allowed "Hilton, with whom he had
n previous slight acquaintance, to store some
goods there, the cimracter of w hich he was
ignorant. On the following day two finely
executed steel plates were discovered, to
gether with the remainder of the machinery.
Alter the seizure the next step was to dis
cover the manufacturer of the geometrical
lathe. This was soon done, llie maker being
found in New Jersey, some six miles back
of Newark. lie was ascertained to be a
loyal uiau who had Lcen employed by the
United States Government in doing work
for the Treasury. He stated that Hilton
came to him a long time ago, and represen
ted Unit he was about starling a new bank
note company, similar to the Continental
Company, and that he desired a lathe made
of this description. The machinist put him
off for some time, because he was greatly
driven with work, but finally succeeded iii
finishing the machine, ami delivering the
same about ten days ngo. He was aires ted
and brought to this city, but succeeded iu
showing his entire innocence and loyalty.
On Saturday several lawyers were at the
Marshal's of lice, in search of Hilton but chat
srent'.eman, us u precautionary measure, had
been turned over to Major-General Dix, aud
sent down the harbor.
From further information obtained by
Maishtd Murray, it appeared that the bond's
and notes already printed, as well as the
machinery for making them, were to have
been blniiped on the Isl oT January to Hali
fax, and from thence to Nassau to u Confed
erate agent. From there th'V would have
been fdiipcjd on a blockade runner fur the
coast ot Florida. Tho plates, dies, &.C.,
were spoken of in the intercepted letter ns
being superb, and it was also stated that
Hilton would act iu perfect good faith, from
the very large pecuniary interest he had iu
the matter.
It w as further ascertained that Hilton had
ft regular contract w ith the Rebel Secretary
Mcmtiiingcr to furnitii him with the' bonds,
plates, iVe., in question, and that bis zeal
aud despatch in forwarding the same should
be well rewarded. Hiltnti is n man of unu
sual ability, and discovered that the detec
tives wcie on his track on the third day of
their search for him. He nt once took pre
cautionary measures, und scattered the evi
dences of his guilt about in various places.
Mtiriy nit tiicso iiavo been ascertained, und
tho property found, 'ami the Marshal ami
his ollicers are in track of the others. Tho
parties having them in charge will beheld
strictly to account for the manner in which

A. correspondent of the CidtlmoM Amtrt
in te-lis how tho- bottoms of tho monitors
off Charleston, ate cleaned, as follows :
"During recent visit to Tort Iicysl I
witnessed with considerable interest the
operations of the divers employed to clean
tho bottoms of tho monitors, and perforin
other operations under ths water. Messrs.
Joseph II. Smith und James 3. Phelps have
a contract with tlio government for the
performance of this work, und have been of
great use here. Their principal diver
appropriately named Waters is so used to
this work 1 tli trt he has become almost
amphibious, remuiuing for five or six hours
at u time under wuter. A man of herculean
strength and proportions, when clad in his
submarine armor hu becomes monstrous in
size and appearance. A more singular sight
than to see him roll nr tumble into the
water nnd disappear from sibt, or popping
up, blowing, us the air escapes from, his
helmet, like a young whale, can scarcely be
imagined. Waters has bis own ideas of a
joke, and when ho has a curious andience,
will wave Ins scraper about as 'ho botis
around' on the water, with the air of a
veritable river god. One of his best jokes
the better for being a veritable fact occur
red last summer. Whilst he was employed
scraping the bull of one of the monitors,
a negro from one of the up-river plantations
came alongside w itll a boat-load of water
melons. Whilst busy selling his melons
the diver came up and rested himself on
the side of tho boat. The negro stared at
the extraordinary appearance thus suddenly
sominir out of the water with alarmed
wonder, but when the diver seized one of
the best melons m the boat and disappcored
under the water, the gurgling of the air
from the helmet mixing Willi Ins mnlileu
biuuhtcr. the fright of the negro reached a
cliiiia.x. Hastily seizing his oars, without
waiting to be paid tor Ins melons, lie put
oil ut his nest (.peed, anil has not ocen seen
in the vicinitv of Station Creek since, lie
cannot be tempted bevond the bounds of
the plantation, and believes that the Yan
kecs have brouaht river devils to aid them
in inukiiiLr war.
"The diver, when clothed in his armor is
weighted with one hundred and cighty-Bve
pounds. Besides his armor, he has two
leaden pads, fitting to his breast and back.
1 lie soles ot his shoes are ot lead, an men
and a half thick. All this weight is needed
to overcome the buoyancy given by the
mass ol air lorceu into the armor anil uress,
the latter of India rubber, worn by the
diver. When below the surface ho can
instantly brinir himself up by closing mo
meiitarily the aperture in the helmet tor the
escape ol ttie air. ins nuoyancy is imme
diately increased, and be pops up like a
cork, and llo;tts at will upon the surlace.
"The work of scraping the bottom) of
the monitors is very arduous. The diver
sits upon a spar, luihed athwart the bottom
of the vessel, so arranged as to be moved as
the work goes on, and with a scraper Used
to a long handle works on both Bides of
himself us far as be can reach. The mas9
of oysters that became attached to the iron
hulls of one of the monitors, even during
one summer here, is immense. By actual
measurement it was estimated that two
hundred and fifty bushels of oysters, shells
and seaweed were taken from the bottom of
the Montauk alone. The captaim of the
monitors have sometimes indulged in the
novelty of a mess of oysters raised on the
hulls of their own vessels.
"Besides cleaning the monitors the divers
perform other important services. They
have ransacked the interior of the Keokuk,
attached buoys to lost anchors, and made
under-wiitcr examinations of the rebel ob
structions. Waters recently examined the
sunken Weehawken, and met an tsnusutil
danger for even his perilous calling. The
sea was so violent that he was twice thrown
fiom the deck of the monitor. Finally
getting hold of the iron ladder he cbmbed
to the top of the turret, when a heavy sea
cast him inside the turret between the guns.
tearing that bis air hose would become
entangled, he made bis way out with all
possible speed, imU was forced to give up
Ids investigations until catmer weather of
fered a more favorable opportunity.''

sion, leaving behind two eight-inch howit
zer iron guns and cassions, one dead gunner,
sit dead horses, seventy-two intrenching
shovels, and accoutrements of multitudinous
description.
'J he Confederate tired nnwards or three
hundred rifled projectiles tit the Marblcliead,
anoi it is most extraordinary that she cscapeii
total destruction, flhe in return fired two
hundred and fifty-six shell aud shrapnel,
nearly all of w bicli fell into the midst of the
enemy. The loss of the Rebels In killed
and wounded must have been very consid
erable, but with the exception of the one
dead gunner found in their deserted works
the rest were all removed. The trees around
their lunettes were felled and splintered pro
digiously, and the earth upturned as if
done by a ploughshare or n thunder-bolt.
The loss on the Murblehead was three killed
(cut in two literally), und four wounded
seriously. Two men were slightly injured,
who refused to report to the surgeons. Com
mander Meade was also struck on the foot
by un iron splinter, from the "stnrbud fore
bitt'' (slightly injured) and Acting Ensign
Harriinan wus knocked down at his gun,
though not injured. The courage and hero
ism of the gallant officers and crew of the
Marblcliead is beyond all praise. They
fought with great odds against them, and
achieved a splendid victory.
Tho Marblcliead is badly crippled ; has
twelve shots in tho hull, eighteen through
the upper works and spars, and had her
top-mast shot away. The running rigging
was literally cut to pieces, and also the
standing rigging. At the time the action
commenced, the United States steamer Paw
nee was anchored in Stono Inlet, about two
miles from Lcgarevillo ; and, owing to her
boilers being leaky, she did not get into the
fight until it was nearly over; but by going
up the Kiawah River, she cnliladed the Re
bels, and contributed materially to their
discomfort. The Rebs, however, did not
fire a shot at her, as they had "turned tail"
before the Pawneo got into action. The
mortar schooner C. I'. Williams, acting
Muster Freeman, although anchored full five
miles off, in Folly River, slipped her cable
ut the sound of the first gun, nnd went down
gallantly under sail, and arrived in time to
open her large mortar on the retreating
enemy.
Brigadier General Gordon, commanding
our outposts, went to the reliel ot the gun
boats with a regiment of infantry, arriving
ut Legureville at about 10 o'clock A. M., us
did also Colonel Gurnev, of the Seventy
fourth Pennsylvania Regiment, then station
ed on t ole s Island. 1 he enemy had a
sqund of cavalry to protect their batteries,
but they traveled as soon as our infantrv
force advanced. The abandoned works
were found to be a series of lunettes and
rifle-pits, plunked and ditched. The hot
tire they encountered from our gun-boats
must have been terrible to compel them to
evacuate them so hastily, und after the great
labor bestowed in their construction.

Tlio Senate was culled to order by Mr.
Penny, and certitioates of tho new members
were presented.
Four of tlio newly elected Democratic
Senators presented protests against beinr?
sworn into oll'.co by Mr. Penny, who, they
claimed, bad not been elected Skeaker this
session.
The protests were entered on tho jonrnal.
Senator I.amberton offered a resolution
setting forth that the Constitution requires
that the General Assembly shall meet on tlio
first Tuesday of January in each year, mid
that it also ordains that each bouse shall
elect its Speaker and other ollicers ) there
fore, lictolccd. That the Senate do cow proceed
to elect a Speaker.
I he resolution was adopted, and the lifst
ballot resulted in a tie vote. Mr. Clymer
voted for Jlr. Penny, and Mr. Penny for
Mr. Clymer. The second, third, nnd fourth
ballots resulted the same, viz : Clymer, six
teen ; Penny, sixteen. Various efforts were
made to act upon bills in place, nnd to pass
resolutions relative to the-organization,
but all business was impeded by the tie
vote.
Bills were introduced ns follows :
Mr. Lowrie introduced an act to allow the
city of Erie to sell her railroad slock. Also
one authorizing Erie county to pay boun
ties. Mr. I.amberton objected to the presenta
tion of these bills or any other until the
Senate wus organized.
The speaker decided this objection to be
not well taken.
Mr. Clymer said that, in eighteen hundred
and fifty-five, when a similar dilliculty oc
curred in the Senate, the Speaker vacated
the chair nt the beginning of the term, and
the Clerk performed bis function until tho
matter was adjusted.
Mr. Turrell saiil that this may have been
the case, but that there was no law requir
ing tho Speaker at the beginning cf anew
session to vacate his seat. It was only a
custom, nnd not binding.
The seventh and eighth ballots were then
taken, but without un election.
Finally, a majority of two votes carried
an adjournment until to-morrow morning.

Cai'U Race, Jan. 2.
The London Times had insinuated that the
Archduke Maximilian will not accept the
Mexican crown, nnd that Napoleon w ill have
to cast about for some one else.
Tho troubles iu India were assuming
alarming proportions. The British troops
had lost heavily. . ..'."
Russia continued to send off considerable
numbers of Polish prisoners to Siberia. A
revolutionary maniksto had been placarded
in the principal towns of Hungary. Kossuth
was at the head of the movement.
King and Hcenan had appeared before
magistrates for breaking the pence, and both
were bound over to appear ut the ijuarter
Sessions.
tTOni.D by tbi; SttovKi.i-i i.i.. A tra
dition has been current for years, that some
lost immigrants, in 1S4 j, while wnnilcrir.fr
through the country drained by the iVIalheur
discovered mines where robl could be raked
up by the shovell'itll. At the time, the dis
coveries were ignorant of the chaiuctcrittb-s
of pdd in its native state, nnd accordingly
they passed on, regarding the metal as
worthless. A few years later, some of these
men were attracted to California, and on
visiting tho mines there, almost tlie first re
mark was, that they knew where bushels of
that kind of sttitf were to be had.
Since that date, scarce a year has passed,
that did not witness the departure of com
pimie3 tif men who were sent for the purpose
of discover!!!"; the country described the
immigrants. These exploring parties have
uniformly proved failures, nwini; in u great
measure, to the hostility of the Indians, who
have resolutely refused to allow the white
man to prospect their country. At last,
however, a party more fortunate than the
rest, have succeeded in finding the lun .'-lr.st
gold Held, and. if reports are to be believed,
the story of its richness has not been cxn
(related by the original discoveries. JJitU',m
