1E 'gad ftpadmmt. The County Finances. The Annual Exhibit of the condition of the finances of the county will be found in to paper. The settlement of the accounts of the various officers by the Board of Audi tors has been tedious. and laborious, but may be relied upon as correct and scrupu • lonely just to the tax-payers. The county has never had more efficient Auditors and Commissioners, or officers more watchful of the public interests. Joseph F. Randolph, Esq. This affable and good-natured gentleman, late Treasurer of the county, retired from Oboe on Monday last, and in obedience to the popular mandate was succeeded by our Junior partner. Cu!. hommos. Mr. RAN point has made a competent, obliging, and attentive officer, and retires with the good will and well-wishes of all who know him or have had business with him during his term or service ; and we are mistaken in the es tigmte the people have formed of his fitness and capability, U he is tot soon recalled from his retirement to positions of equal respon sibility and trust. In any event, every, body pronounces him a princely good fellow and "q9d's noblest work—an honest man." "Jest So." As some of our friends predicted, "BIG Jot," since he got possession of the county puree and funds, "refuses to nrvmx," and the distressing poverty of the Senior Editor is likely to continue at !oast two years longer, indeed it should'ot become a life-long affildion,) nnless he can get a "contract" from the government to furnish blind mules at $950 a head, spavined horses at half the money, or rotten pork at 19 eta. per pound (Won't somebody give us a letter to Stanton?) Col. Jassmsras is a very clever man,—no doubt of THAT, and no doubt "all the world and his wife" think so ; but for about the °ne in:mated and nineteenth time in our brief political experience we have had occasion to remark the wonderful difference hinted st by a "Roman Consul in the early days of that celebrated Republic," between the pro fessions of men moron anti their practice • obtaining office." \. Recruiting Service. Bete.' E. IL limon, of Co. I, Bth Pa. Racer ea; ; son of L L MINOR, Esq., of - this plane, has been detailed on recruiting service, and will open an office in Brownsville in a few days ; but is at present looking around Hoeg his friends here. "En" has been one of the best and bravest soldiers in his Regi ment, and would hive had a commission klag ago if the "powers that be" had done him *tine. A Chance for Bargains. Oat nrighbor, J. C. LIGHTOAP, it will be seen tv hiss advertisement in another column, is closing out his large and varied assortment of Boots, Shoes, Hats and Caps AT 008 T, as Ire intends toleave the county in the Spring. Hie numerous Mends will be sorry to hear of this determination, for his courteous bearing and uprightness of character have made him not only a n agreeable acquaintance, but an excellent althea. Before leaving, however, he s disposed tc do the people all the good 'he can by offering them great bargains in his Goods, which embraces almost every sort of boot-ware and head-gear. Buyers would do well to give hint a call. The Benefits of Politeness. Owning politeness to excess is said to be raising your hat to a young lady in the alismt and allowing a couple of dirty collars and woke to fall out upon the sidewalk.— Our lone and solitary friend, JOE PORTER, has been exposed in this style "severial times" lately, but don't seem to mind it, as be says "he's getting used to it." Nor does it seem to interfere with his business or his bargains to customers. His stock is being fast cut down with a view to replenishing, and our readers•will find it just the time to buy to advantage. Give biro a call. Disobarged. MOILIIR &AYERS, SPENDER MOCLZLLAN, Joint Wirral, FRANK LINDSEY and CRAWFORD CkytnamL, all of Waynesburg, have just been discharged, after Ms months service in the Park Battery of Pittsburgh. They have all reached home and look well. On a Visit. Dent. Col. H. M. Muss, of the 2(1 Mis souri Oavalry, formeriy an employed in the Messenger office, and a good and gallant fel low, Is on a brief visit to his family and Mends in this county. "Indian Lost." An exchange paper illustrates the condi -Ition ofnestegade Democrats pretty well. An Italian who had lost his. reckoning in the woods, soddenly stopped and exclaimed, "In dian Lost ! • but unwilling to recognize his own blunder thus, he thought a moment, and added, "No! Indian not lost—wigwam lost." There Mows that leave the Democratic party never get lost—the party is lost.

The aggregate ex randitures are sometihng larger than those of the previous year; but when the greatly incresed cost of provi sions: and other necessaries for the support of the inmates is consider ed, the directors cannot but think the institution bas been ecomomi. cally conducted. Beaides this, the number of paupers relieved during the year has been materially greater and the expenditures embrace the item of sawing lumber for the barn, which being for a permanent im provement need not again soon oc cur. /4,291 79 10 00 ;945 4 00 63 81 The expenses have also been greater then they should be, through the practice or rather the necessity of paying for almost everything in I County orders. Could the Directors and Steward be furnished with money to purchase the necessary provisions, clothing, etc., we are satisfied that a saving of at least ten per cent could be effected. We therefore earnestly recommend that the law be so changed that the an nual estimates shall be collected by the Treasurer and paid in cash upon the orders of the Commissioners to the Directors. It will make no dif ference to the tax-payers, as under the old system he paid the poor tax in cash, and urder the present, there are but few mo pay their county taxes entirely in orders. We also again refer to the utter unfitness of the building under its present arrangement for the proper and humane care of Insane paupers. One room has been fitted up, so that some degree of comfort and secnrity has been attained ; but if the insane of the county now at Harrisburg and Pittsburg Hospitals, are brought home, and put in our house of em ployment, as it is now the intention to do, some suitable provision must at once be made fur their reception. This will necessarily involve us is conskinmate expense, which migut have bees avoided by sdiferent ar- 1 rouge/Tient of the ?tomb when the house was built.

He says: "Bannock City, or East Bannock, is situated in a tributary of Beaver Head, call ed Grasshopper river. The mountains on either side of the stream in the vicinity of the city are fully five thousand feet above the level of the stream In this valley or gulch, and clear up the sides of the moun tains, diggings fir over twenty miles have been discovered, and claims have been staked oil wherever a show of gold is to be seen.— The highest yield thus far to the pan has been five hundred.
