    present financial revulsion, none is, so deeply
painful as that which is visited upon those
»ho had the least agency in producing it—
he hundreds of thousands of prudent, mdus.
rious, useful, and productive members of so.
.jeiy, who have obtained their daily livelihood
>y manufacturing industry. The proportion
if this class to the whole mass of population
s hardly realized. They are not lo be seen,
;ike those of other pursuits, in . all localities,
but, in general, are segregated in close com-’
munities by themselves, and when they come
to beenumeraied by the omni-present census,
after, a grand total is obtained which many
ire not at all prepared lo expect. The cen-
ius of 1850 shows that in New England over
Itree hundred thousand persons; were enga
ged in manufacturing establishments—ip New
fork about two hundred thousand —in Penn*
sylvania one hundred and fifty-thousand —
and in other Stales nearly three hundred
thousand— making an aggregate of very near
ly a million in the entire country. This
number comprises (hose who are actually
engaged in’these mills; if to them be’.added
those who, as children or other family con
neciions are dependent upon the wages there
earned, we get some adequate idea of the im-’
mense persona) interests at stake in the.pros
perily of these establishments. The effects
of the stoppage of manufactories might be
presented impressively in the light of polili
cal economy. The capital invested in them is
four hundred and twenty-seven millions tf
dollars, and the value of their annual pro
duct over a thousand millions; and every
one must see that the locking up of such a
vast capital in idleness, and the cessation of
such an amount of productive industry, must
tell with tremendous effect upon every ma
terial interest of the country. But it is in
its direct personal bearings that the subject
excites the most painful concern.— N, Y.
Courier Enquirer, j
Don't Hoard the Specie. —There is
abundance of specie in Ihe country for all
the ordinary transactions of daily life, if it is
only kept in circulation. Specie, or other
small currency, is the life-blood of business,
and if it be wanting to. any considerable ex
tent, business will languish, stagnate or de
cay in proportion as its life-blood is wanting.
The propensity to hoard specie is one of
the lowest and meanest vices of the human
mind. It is the very essence of selfishness.
The propensity is naturally heightened in
limes of panic likethe present, and often seiz
es upon good men who in' ordinary seasons
would be entirely free from it.. Let-all who
have a spark of kindly and liberal feeling
“resist the temptation and it will flee from
them.”
There is still sufficient gold and silver in
the country to keep the wheels of business in
motion and thereby enable honest industry
by daily l tabor to earn its daily bread. —
Whatever ot want and suffering may prevail
this wintei among those who would labor,
but can find no employment, will be largely
owing to the hoarding of specie. Those who
cause this want to fall upon the poor, will re
ceive their pay in due season if it be true
that “with the measure ye mete withal, the
same shall be measured to you agaio.”
Pursuing Gold under Difficulties.—
The New Haven Journal says that lor the
fast two weeks a party of men and women
from that city have been digging for treasure
on the premises of Mr. L. P. Allis, at Savin
Rock. It seems some clairvoyant sojourning
there has discovered that there are some
§ll,OOO of gold and jewelry, besides other
treasures, buried near the slump of an old
tree at the rock. They were stolen, they
say, from a store in New Haven some forty
years ago, and were then buried there by the
robbers. The deluded people have dug a
place Mr. Allis says, large enough for the
cellar of a meeting house, but they huvo not
yet discovered the treasure, and yesterday
the clairvoyant, (a woman,) was to be taken
to Savin Rock and put to sleep on the spot,
so that she might more accurately point out
the position of the valuables. One of the
men says he has spent a good deal of money,
and meaus lo have a thorough search. It
will be gratifying for thym to know that the
property would belong lo the person from
whom it was stolen, in case they find it,
and their work is a “labor of love” for his
benefit.
Mr. Buchanan has travelled further South
than all the former Presidents. But three
years ago it was barely intimated that the
Missouri Compromise prohibiting slavery was
unconstitutional. The original Nebraska
Bill did not even intimate it, the second draft
of that bill left it to be implied, and it was
only at a third (rial that the full iniquity was
developed. Then all the sectional end in
tended effect of the bill was explained, or
sought lo be explained away, and it was even
proclaimed that it would redound to the in
terests of freedom. It was a great step to
the dictum of Judge Taney, that any prohi
bition of slavery in the Territories is uncon
etilutional, and that slavery existed in the
Territories of the Union under the Constitu
tion. Phis dictum of the Judge, Mr. Buchan
an, as President, endorses. Ii is the greatest
pro-slavery concession any Northern man
has ever made. President Buchanan’s Kan

An Open Field for Competition.
KANSAS has had her share of the Glory, Fun,
Confusion &c., and 1 am happy to stale that
she is about quieting herself and yielding (he palm
to tiie littfe village of Tioga.
About the first of November last I commenced
selling Goods in Tioga, am still selling. For a. little
time past there has been quite an effort on the part
of some to establish a standard price for goods par
ticularly on leading articles the yery articles qf
which ihe poor man uses (he most A few days
since I made up my mind to change my prices on
FLOUR & MEAL,
as I thought I had a right to. X therefore had a,
very modest handbill printed informing the people of
what I intended doing in the future.. No sooner.had
the fact become known that I had reduced the price,
than one man selling the same hind of Goods, says:.
“Its ahe 1 Cun’! be the same article I 1 know it
ain’t good I” Another, interested in keeping up
old fogy prices, presents the documents la show. that
from the prices he pays in Buffalo fur Flour, Meal
&c., of course ETZ’S article atstlie low price can
not be as good as ours at oar high prices.' Great
discovery! Sensible reasoning! Humbug conclii*
sion! * . r. 1
How long since did they find *otot that my articles
were not tip-top ? Why, just the moment my price
did not agree with theirs. Oar only answer to (heir
unkind remarks toward us, is, thal-oar floor was
very nice until wc changed the price. Did that
change the quality 7 when it is the selfsame article
wc have sold since last April. Hundreds can bear
me witness that it Is asjilce as any article they ever
used. • ”
It has never been oar practice nor never will be
to say aught of the quality ,of our neighbor’s goods.
But we do say that our ‘‘extra supertine” and “su
perfine” flour is as good as-any‘flour manufactured
or sold in Tioga County. You citizens that buy
dbii’t longer believe the humbug yarn that you must
pay from 50 lo 75 per cent for goods, especially if
you get trusted a few months. No wonder every
plank in the Wellsboro* and Tioga Plank Road has
received a thousand curses from the merchants of
Tioga village, because it has driven trade from ns,
they say. The curses will grow [louder and deeper
both from buyer and seller until Goods are sold at
a reasonable cash profit. Since we commenced we
have tried to meet the wants oPthe public, and we
flatter ourselves that our large cash sales arc good
evidence that our*effort has not been a failure, but
has been appreciated by a .generous and candid pub',
lie. We shall continue selling Goods in the coitkt
store of A. C. dk J, S. Bush,'directly opposite of
Baldwin, Lowell & Co.* where we shall be pleased
to show oar Goods and gWc our prices. Wcshall
buy a large stock of all kinds of Goods in New
York this fall, and shall hope by pursuing a straight
forward-course to merit the favor of enough of the
people ofTioga county to sell them and get onr pay.
Wc shall try and have the quality and price satis
