In passing through Philipshurg, some
time ago, we had occasion to stop with David
Johkbtox, who keeps the PhiI:psburg Hotel,'
and we must say, we never sit down to a bet

commodating landlord. We advise all our
friends who are fond of good accommodations
to stop with 'Squire Johnston. See notice.

On. Friday the subject of the repeal of the
County Superintendent U- was discussed in
the Seutc, and oa a testvote.it was found
that a majority of : Senators were in favor of
the feature. The vote was 19 to 12.
In the House on Friday the Resolutions re
lative to the rights of foreigners were discus
sed all forenoon, in Committee of the whole.
The Committee rose, reported progress, . and
asked leave to sit again. The following mes
sage, vetoing the Bank cf Pottstown, was reT
ceived from the Governor. '
Gentlest eji : I herewith return to the House
of Representatives, in which it originated, bill
No. 276, entitled "An Act authorizing the in
corporation of the Bank of Tottstown," with
my objections to the same, Should thu num
ber of banks and the amount - of banking capi
tal in the State bo increased ? and if so, to
what extent, and in what localities, are ques
tions that deserve and should receive a care
ful and candid consideration.' If local and
personal interests are permitted to determine
these questions, the. answer will be found in
the unusual and extraordinary number of ap
plications for bank charters now pending be
fore the Legislature.
But the number of applications is no just
criterion by which to determine either the
wishes or i'hs wants of the community in this
regard. Their number, and the pertinacity
with which they are pressed, have startled f.nd
alarmed the public mind; nor has the favora
ble action of the Legislature in granting these
demands, served to allay the apprehensions
and fears thus excited. The policy of the past
few years may have been too severely and un
necessarily restrictive; yet this policy should
be preserved, rather than abandon the State
and the interests ol her people, to the destruc
tive influences of a wild and reckless system
of banks and banking. That some increase of
banking capital is nc-cessary in certain locali
ties within, this Commonwealth,-will not be
denied; that a largo increase is not demanded,
cither by public sentiment, or the public
wealth, is a truth equally undeniable. In the
creation of banks, a sound andhonest discrim
ination, as to number, locality, and the de
mands of trade should be exercised.
Their number should be determined, more
by the actual wants of legitimate trade, than
by the wild fancies of stock jobbers and rash
speculators. The sudden and unnecessary ex
pansion of the currency should be avoided;
and whatever tends to produce such a result
ought to be discountenanced, 'and if possible,
prevented. The history ot banking, in our
own and other States, is full of useful lessons
on this subject. Experience should teach us
wisdom; and cur present and future actions,
in relation to banks and banking, should be
regulated ani controlled by her teachings.
The advantages to be drived from an increas
ed number of banks, are more fancied than
real. It is an error to suppose that an increase
of banking capital adds to the actual capital of
the State or nation. Banking capital is but
the aggregation of individual capital, previous
ly existin.?, rendered more efficient, perhapse,
but not mare useful by such aggregation, and
the special privileges conferred by the act "of
incorporation.
Circulation is not capital, nor does it in
crease or represent capital. As the represen
tative of credit, based upon the ability of the
bank to redeem itspromises, it becomes, when
properly limited, a useful auxiliary to tradj
and commerce when unlimited and excessive,
it not only ceases to be useful, but becomes
dangerous and destructive to the financial and
industrial interests of the people. Without
an increase of banks, cr.d the iacil!fi?s they
afford, the commercial and industrial interests
of the eonntry would snflerno serious reverse.
Inconvenience might be experienced, and the
more rapid, and for that reason, the more
dangerous pro gress of business arrested. But
this is preferable to the concomitant evils of
an inflated currency: overtrading, rash spec
ulation, and a depreciated currency, always
terminating in bankruptcy and ruin. That
such would be the result, if the numerous
banks now before the Legislature should be
chaptered, cannot be seriously doubted. Per
sonal and private interests may magnify the
importance and necessity of incorporating
these banks, but no consideration cf public
policy or interest cor.li justify their creation.
Such financial policy, would be nothing less
than financial madness and folly. '
In population, wealth, trade and commerce,
our progress during tne prist ten years has ;
been rapid and unprecedented. Our mining,
manufacturing and industrial interests have
been largely and permanently developed, and
are now in progress of more ample develop- j
ment; and yet during this period, the adii- J
tior.3 to our banking capital have been almost
nominal, bearing no appreciable proportion
to the immense increase of the great interests
already enumerated. These facts demonstrate
and establish the truth, that although banking
facilities may and do aid the business of a
country, their increase is not indispensably
necessary to its progress and rapid develop
ment. But greater facilities might secure greater
results, and therefore it is freely admitted,
that although such facilities are not absolute
ly necessary, yet they are important, and as
aids to legitimate business, under proper lim
itations and restrictions, should be afforded. '
A moderate and reasonable incresae of bank
ing capital, judiciously distributed might be
useful to the increased and increasing trade
and commerce of the State; but. under no cir
cumstances can an extravigant and unneces
sary increase be justified or defended. Loenl
and personal considerations may secure the
passage of numerous acts incorporating banks,
not demanded by the business wants of the
community, but such legislation cannot be
sanctioned by public policy or sustained by
public sentiment.
The financial and commercial embarrass
ment from which the country is now slowly
recovering, requires cautious and prudent le
gislation, and demands that the actual and re
al w.tnts of business should be regarded, and
the true interests of the people consulted. A
sudden and excessive inflation of the currency
by the creation of numerous banks, might mit
igate and temporally remove the evils we now
suffer, but in the end, would re-produce and
aggravate them. .The remedy is more to be
dreaded than the disease, and its consequences
often-times more fatal and destructive.'
Bank accommodations are, and ever ' must
be, an insecure and unreliable basis of leitir
mate business. When every thing is prosper
ous and money abundant, accommodations are
freely proffered and loans easily secured. Ia
a monetary crisis, and in the hour of great
est need, "the borrower finds his accommoda
tions withheld his paper rejected and bis
creditor, the bank, demanding payment of his
liabilities. The banks in self-defence, in sea
sons of pressure, are compelled thus to act, to
prevent suspension and their own ruin. In
this struggle for lite, the debtor must first faH,
public and private interests suffer, and a gen
eral derangement of business, and the curren
cy Immediately follow. "-' " J -."

tors cf the currency banks have signally failed,
a well regulated system of revenue by the Na
tional Government, protecting jiational indus
try, and encouraging the enterprise of the A
merican people,, restraining the enormous and
now, omiiiously large importations of foreign
products and merchandize, securing the coun
try against the exhausting drain of the preci
ous metals, gold and -silver, to pay for products
manufactured abroad which we should and
could make cheaper at home. Such a system
is a better regulation of the currency, and a
more certain remedy for financial distress and
commercial evils, than all the banks of this and
other States, that are, now, or may be estab
lished by legislative enactment- These prin
ciples require no elaboration. Their, truth, is
generally admitted. Their application to par
ticular cases piesents a question of more diili
cult determination. Discriminations may be
odious, but in view of the action of the Legis
lature, on the subject of the incorporation of
now banks they become important and neces
sary. 'In the discharge of my officialjlHtics
in the premises, I may err in judgment, but
will shrink from no responsibility. ' :
Having, on the day of my induction into of
fice, declared that il would not refuse tosanc
ticn the incorporation of naw banks, when in
dispensably necessary, and clearly demanded
by the .actual business wants and interests cf
the community in which they may be located,"
the question now presents itself, is the Lank
proposed to be established by this bill, neews
ssry and clearly demanded by the actual busi
ness wants and interests of that community'
In determining this question, the locality it
self its existing bankiag facilities Its prox
imity to other banks, and to the great marts
of trade the means of communication uie
amount, value and character of its trade and
business, and other attendant circumstances
should be considered. From a carefu exami
nation of all these, and with propef reference
to private and public interests, I cannot dis
cover the necessity that requires, or the wants
or interests of the community that clearly de
mannd the creation of this Lank. "
Feelings of regard for those who desire the
passage of this bill would prompt its approval.
Considerations of public interest, and the stern
demands of official duty require me to withhold
my signature. . JAMES POLLOCK.

The Secretary of State gives notice that
Gov. Pollock has adopted the following rules
in relation to all future applications for par
dons: Firs', Satisfactory evidence will Le required,
that at least five days previous notice cf the

to the District Attorney of the city or county
in which the conviction took place.
Scxrd, That at least ten days previous no

at least one newspaper, published in the city

School Superintendents. The Committee
on Education in the Senate have reported,
with a negative recommendation, the bill to
abolish the oEice of County Superintendents
in certain counties. The Committee are de
cidedly of the opinion that it would be impo
lite at this time to repeal the law ol last ses
sion creating the odce tl County Superinten
dent, particularly as the system has not been
fairly tried; and that it would be still worse to
exempt certain counties from its operation,
unformity being essential to a good common
school system. No doubt the bill will be cal
led up for consideration, and voted for by
Senators who feel themselves bound by local
feeling to take this coiiio; but the general
sentiment seems to ba in favor cf giving the
new law a fair trial. . - .
Hos. Fimr.K Sctli:. We have heard many
comments Epon the conduct of our late Min
ister to Spain; but the New York Times grounds
the following ssrious charge against Lim, that
during his itbhence at Oitond, Mr. Persy,
Secretary of Legation, in his correspondencs
with the State D-.-pnrtinont, "complained, in
substance, that Mr Sovle wilfully neglected
to secure an amic-.bb; adjustment cf thy Black
Warri.T d:i;ieuUy, c3tl:c.:h his instructions
gave him ample opportunity to do so. Mr.
i'EK2Y also complains that he couli hiiujaii
have arranged all this during Mr. Soul:. "3 ab
sence, and precisely in accordence v.ith his
instructions from the State department, tut
that Mr. S. had enjoined it upon him not even
to communicate with the Spanish Government
on any of these subjects."
IP" It is stated by The Union, and confirm
ed by T.'-e Evening Post, that the differences
between the American and Spanish Govern
ments, with reference to the Black Warrier
affair, are cow arranged, Spain having agreed
to the view of the matter taken by Mr. luarcy,
and promised to make all the reparation de
manded. The l'ost alleges that the case would
have been disposed of before had not Mr. Soule
withheld an important dispatch of the Secre
tary's from the knowledge of the Spanish Gov
ernmebt, evidently, as our contemporary ar
gues, in order to keep the quarrel cpen with a
view to his own schemes efjainst Cuba.
CostiiOK School State Convention. The
Superintendent of Common Schools of fhi3
