Sleighs were running in West Chester last Thurs

BANKS.—We see it stated that the banks of Phil
adelphia are now settling the balance due to each
other in specie, thus completing the payment of
specie on all their liabilities.
Upwards of one million papers of vegetable and
flower seeds have been put up at the Agricultural
Division of the Patent Office within the past sixty

IMPROVEMENTS IN THE CITY.-11l many parts of
the city the "diggers" have been bard at work,
preparing a position for the foundation of numer
ous domiciles to be erected the ensuing summers
AMICABLY SIITTLED;A female Ethiopian was
before thlaMayor yesterday, charged with making
use of bad language. She promised to do better,
and was discharged. Cases of this kind are
brought up almost daily, and receive the attention
of the Mayor. These petty fights should be settled
on the outside.
CORNICE Loin onro.—We do hope that the officers
of our city will pay a little attention to the gangs
of half-grown boys who nightly congregate on the
street. Not that it is a crime to stand upon the
corner, but many of them are so lost to feeling that
they frequently insult females, and use the worst
kind of language.
Dome Nornma.—Our aldermen are complaining
of the beggarly account of empty boxes, and the
want of material to work upon. Can we not get
some gentleman with moral courage and the phy
sical strength to knock another man down? Then
we will have an arrest, and perhaps fun, but, at
all events, it will make an item, which will duly
appear, prefaced with small caps, and concluded
with a moral lecture.
&WEN DEATH AT ALTOONA..-011 Sunday eve
ning last, Mrs. MeCrey, wife of Charles Menu . ,
foreman of the foundry belonging to the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company, attended the Baptist
church, in Altoona, of which she had been a con
sistent member for many years, apparently in her
usual robust health. After the opening services
were gone through, the lady was noticed to cough,
and while the Rev. Mr. Sembower was announcing
his text, she rose and left the church, proceeding
to a Louse close by, where she complained of feel
ing very ill, and died in about ten minutes.
ROREES' FEET REQUIRE MOISTURE.—Nine-tenths
of the diseases which happen to hoofs and ankles
of the horse are occasioned by standing on the dry
plank floors of the stable. Many persons seem to
think, from the way they keep their horses, that
the foot of the horse was never made for moisture,
and that, if poesible, it would be beneficial if they
had cowhide boots to put en every time they went
out. Nature desigaed the foot for moist ground—
the earth of the woods and valleys—at the same
time that a covering was given to protect it from
stones or stumps.
Awntss TO Bunn . A HousE.—On Tuesday night
some fiend attempted to set fire to the building at
the corner of Third and Walnut streets, known as
Military Hail. A quantity of burning fluid or tur
pentine was placed under the door ? and set fire to.
Fortunately, Mr. Gross, the proprietor of the
place, was awake, and hearing footfalls on the
porch, came down stairs in time to extinguish the
fire. The affair took place about 2 o'clock, and if
the flames had got any headway, serious damage
would have ensued, as the breeze about the oorner
was quite lively at the time. No clue to the per
petrator bas been obtained up to the present time.
'lnn Maxon's Wu-res.—Two volunteers ap
peased before His Honor yesterday morning.—
They were both circulating mediums, and in search
of a night's lodging. One of them—Joseph Long
—hailed from Schuylkill county, but was born in
Germany. Having no visible means of support,
and no "eons" to pay his fine, the Mayor dis
charged him.
Thomas Jackson was a volunteer inmate of the
"retreat," on Monday night. Thomas had been so
journing in Texas for some time; but since the
conflict he has been out of work, and concluded to
seek his fortunes in the North. Having no money,
and there being no charge against him, the Mayor
sent him on his way rejoicing.
GREAT Warrmes.—Some of the moat sublime and
truthful o thlags ever written were first clothed in
the English language. Chaucer and Spenser arc
the acknowledged fathers of English poetry;
Shakspeare and Milton were very respectable sons
to the original founders of the institution, and By
ron, Shelley and Tennyson stand fair as grand
children. The writers named, together with Scott,
Dickens, Irving, Longfellow and Holmes, have, we
admit, written some very passable things; but
nothing more truthful and practical ever came from
their pens than the assertion that the most elegant
garments for gentlemen and youths, to be found in
the Union, are those made at the Brown Stone
Clothing Ball of Rockhill Jr. Wilson, Nos. 603 and
605 Chesnut street, above Sixth, Philadelphia.
Ranuoen Marrnirs.—The Manheim Sentinel
announces with pleasure that the Reading and
Columbia Railroad, so important to the interests of
that borough, has at last been put under contract,
and will be commenced in a short time. The
terms of the contract were finally settled by the
committee appointed by the Board of Directors—
Messrs. Kauffman, Schoch, and the President of
the road, Mr. Honig/rasher—and by James Moore
Ar , Co., the contractors in Philadelphia, two weeks
ago. We learn that the contractors have taken
the road at their standing offer, via : $600,000, and
are to finish the grading, masonry and superstruc
ture; prepare the road for ballasting, cross-ties
and track, fro m the east end of the Columbia
bridge to the intersection with the Lebanon Valley
road, the company to settle for the right of way.
The work is to be ready for the track in 15 months.
The prosecution of this work, as it reaches Man
heim, will greatly add to the business interests of
the Citizens, and its completion will be a means of
Perm:►nent prosperity.
PENNSYLVANIA STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.-
The stated meeting of the Pennsylvania State Ag
ricultural Society was held at their office, in Har
risburg, Tuesday, March 19, 1861. A committee
was appointed, consisting of Messrs. Rutherford,
Colder and Ziegler, to decide upon contested seats,
who made the following report:
Your committee appointed in relation to the mem
bers elected in the 2d, 3d, Bth, 12th, 17th and 23d
districts, beg leave to make the following report :
That they find, by the Constitution, that the 2d,
3d, Bth, 17th and 23d districts are vacant, no per
son being elected therefrom: All of which is re
spectfully submitted. 5. P. RIITUBBFORD,
J. H. Zxnurasn,
Was. COLDER.
The report was adapted. The Secretary laid
before the Society the drawings and communica
tions of P. M. Goodwin, of Luzerne county, with
regard to the laying of drain tile, and moved that
the thanks of the Society be returned to Mr. Good
win, and that the drawings and communications be
incorporated in the next volume of transactions.
Adjourned.
The committee met at 7 o'clock, p. m. Present,
Messrs. Haldeman, (President,) Buck, Bucher, Ba
ker, Colder, Curwen, Drisback, Drinker, Eberly,
Eby, Geary, S. S. Haldeman, Kapp, Mish,
Murdock and Rutherford.
The Secretary, A. 0. Hiester, read his report, in
the course of which he remarked : " Our expenses
during the past year were as great as those of for
mer years, while our receipts, as will be found by
the detailed report of the Treasurer, were less.—
Yet he has the satisfaction, in resigning the onerous
and important duties of the office, of knowing that
he has, to the best of his ability, discharged his
duty; and though our funds have been somewhat
diminished, that we have an amount in the trea
sury sufficient to defray the expenses of the year,
and to carry the Society safely through the risks
incident to another exhibition ; and he now tenders
to every member of the Executive Committee his
thanks for their uniform courtesy toward him."
The Committee .proceeded to elect a Recording
Secretary and a Treasurer, when John H. Zeigler
was elected Secretary, and John P. Rutherford
Treasurer.
The committee on the Essay on Veterinary Sci
ence, by Mr. McLure, made a report, and were dis
charged from the further consideration of the sub
ject. Colder, Rapp and Peters, committee.
The committee on the essay, by General Stokes,
on Farm Failures, reported favorably, and awarded
him a silver goblet, as offered in the premium list.
Gowen, Hamilton and Hiester, committee.
The committee appointed to examine and report
upon the essays of Messrs. Spangler, Guyer and
Goodwin, made report, and awarded premium of
a silver goblet to Mr. Spangler, with a recommen
dation that all possessed merit, and that each be
permitted to speak for himself by publishing the
essays in the next volume of transactions.
On motion, Messrs. Eby, Drinker and Curwen
were appointed a committee to revise and report a
list of premiums for the next exhibition, and ap
point the required number of Judges.
Messrs. Colder, Kapp, Mish, Zeigler and Ruth
erford were appointed a committee to make ar
rangements for the tenth annual exhibition.
On motion, it was resolved that the Vice Presi
dent of each Congressional district be requested to
send to the Secretary the names of suitable per
sons to act as judges.
On motion of Mr. Peters, Mr. Mish and Mr-
Rutberford were appointed a committee to settle
the account of the retiring Treasurer.
On motion of Mr. Murdock, it was unanimously
Bee°lved, That the Executive Committee of the
Pennsylvania State Agricultural Society earnestly
recommend to the members of the Legislature an
appropriation sufficient to complete the building of
the Farmers' _High School, and that a copy of the
above resolution be furnished to the Speakers of
the Senate and House of Representatives.
ANIMAL Foon.—The following summary of the
different purposes to which the proximate constit
uents of food are applied in the animal economy
will be useful:
1. The:earthly substances contained in food, con
sisting chiefly of phosphate of lime and magnesia,
present the animal with the materials of which the
bony skeleton of its body principally consist. They
may be called, therefore, bone material.
2. The saline substances—chloride of sodium
and potasium, sulphate and phosphate of potash
and soda, and some other mineral matters occur
ring in food—supply the blood, juice or flesh, and
various animal juices, with the necessary mineral
constituents.
3. Albumen, gluten, legnmin, and other nitro
gen-containing principles of food, furnish the ani
mal with the materials required for the formation
of blood and flesh; they are therefore called flesh
forming substances.
4. Fats and oily matters of the food are em
ployed to lay on fat, or to support respiration and
animal heat.
5. Starch, sugar, gum, and a few other non-ni
trogenixed substances, consisting of carbon, hydro
gen and oxygen, are used to support respiration,
(hence they are called elements of respiration) or
they produce fat when given in excess.
6. Starch, sugar, and the other elements of res
piration alone, cannot sustain the animal body.
'T. Albumen, gluten, or any other albuminous
matter alone, does not support the life of herbiv
erous animals.
8. Animals fed upon food deficient in earthy
phosphates or bone-producing principles, grow
sickly, and remain weak in the bone.
9. The healthy state of an animal can only be
preserved by a mixed food which contains flesh
forming constituents as well as heat-giving prin
ciples, and earthy and saline mineral substances
in proportion, determined by experience, and
adapted to the different kind of animals, or for the
purpose for which they are kept.
Tun Extunmorr ar BRAlieg HALL. —There
never was an exhibition of any kind in this city
that became so popular in so short a time as the
Pan-tec-na-thec-a, now on exhibition at Brant's
Hall. For this there are three good and sufficient
reasons. First, the paintings are far Saporior to
anything of the kind ever brought here, and are
alone worth seeing, independent of any other at
traction. Secondly, Miss Pettee, an accomplished
vocalist, with an . admirable voice of great compass
and richest tones, sings four or five of the choicest
songs of the day in an artistic manner, every evc
ning, which are alone worth more than the price
of admission. Thirdly, as a wind-up, the mana
gers, in a spirit of recklessness, at the end of each
entertainment, distribute promiscuously among the
audience a large number of valuable gifts, which
is highly gratifying to the recipients, and a source
of great excitement and amusement to the entire
audience.
We say, let every one go to-night, which, by
the-bye, is the last night, and we pledge our repu
tation that no one will be dissatisfied with the en
tertainmen t.
BODGE AND SIGN PAINTDW.—If any of our Citi
zens want their dwellings improved, want a sign
painted, or want anything in the painting line,
they should call upon cur friend Crnikshank, in
Cranberry alley. He can do the work well, and
at the most reasonable prices. *
A REDUCTION.--WO learn that the City Council
have reduced the salary of the Chief of Police to
the sum of $2O per month. How they expect a
span with a family to live on that and do his duty,
is more than we can understand.
How TO BREAK BAD HABITS.--Understand clearly
the reasons, and all the reasons, why the habit is
injurious. Study the subject till there is no Hager
ing doubt in your mind.
Avoid the places, the persona, the thoughte;that
lead to temptation.
Frequent the places, associate with the persons,
indulge in the thoughts, that lead away from temp
tation.
Keep busy. Idleness is the strength of bad ha
bits.
Do not give up the struggle when you have bro
ken your resolution once or a thousand times.—
That only shows how much more need there is for
you to strive.
When you have broken your resolution, just
think the matter over, and endeavor to understand
why it was you failed, so that you may be on your
guard against a recurrence of the same circum
stances.
POSTMASTERS' PEES.—From remarks which we
frequently hear as to the pecuniary value to the
incumbents of our largest postoffices, it is evident
that the subject is about as little understood as any
other Connected with postoSee matters. Per in
stance, quite an intelligent merchant recently in
sisted, in our hearing, that the New York postoffice
was worth "all the way from $6,000 to $15,000 per
annum to the postmaster." The facts are simply
these : This matter of the compensation of poet
masters is entirely regulated and controlled by law'
All offices where the commissions amount to $2,000
and upward are designated as salary offices, $2,000
being the maximum pay allowed from that source,
and an additional $2,000 to be taken out of the
receipts for box rents—making $4,000 the highest
compensation to any postmaster. A. larger sum
than this cannot be realized without resorting to
acts made criminal and felonious by laws of Con
gress, and punished by the severest penalties.—
Even were a postmaster inclined to take the risk
of such penalties, as well the ruin of private and
official character, such are the checks and restraints
now enforced, that the 11 pickings and stealinge"
which many outsiders so flippantly talk about are
entirely out of the question. And if it were not
so, the indulgence in such practices would involve
perjury, as a postmaster is required to make oath
that he has kept nothing from the Government, in
the way of fees or emoluments of any kind, to
which he is not legally entitled. It will thus be
seen that the New York postoffice, with its 232
elerks,ll7 penny-posts, $1,000,000 annual revenue
collected, and its $500,000 bonds, under an honest
administtation of its duties, cannot be made to net
much, if any, more than some other offices, with
perhaps a dozen clerks, a few thousand collections,
and requiring sureties of one-fifth the amount.—
We intend soon to prepare a statement of the emolu
ments received annually at the large postoffices in
the several States.—Holbrookie Mail.

often so mixed up with the excitement of business, that

downward path until it is too late to arrest their fatal
fall. But the mother is always vigilant, and to you we
confidently appeal; for we are sure your never-failing
affection will unerringly point you to PROF. WOOD'S

Leer. TO YOURSELF IN TIME: many, in COMB
quence of a false delicacy, suffer from suppressed, pain
fist or obstructed menstruation, and think because they
are young that.bye-and-bye nature will work itself clear
from obstructions, and all come right in the end, little
dreaming that the seeds of death are alreadygerminatiog
in the system because the vital energies are impaired,
and the entire animal economy deranged, debilitated ;
and yet, careless of themselves as they are, if &remedy
wee tot before them which would restore all the mune
tions of the system, and re-invigorate the body, they
would take it, and thus be in time to save their lives.—
Parents think of this, and at once give them a bottle of
