    Ths Money Market.
Wry little change in the money matlm of Phil
adelphia. Tha nut-door rate may bo quoted
heretofore it T to percent., for good paper. The
brokers have very little to do, insomuch a the
hank, discount all ahoit paper of unexceptionable
character that ia presented to them. Our own im
pression is that as business becomes mora active,
money will Ret comparatively scarce. The abun
dance at the present time, grows chiefly nut of the
limited business of the eoun'iy. Every body hos
been curtailing and retrenching for months, while
the uncertainty and apprehension that existed with
regard to the revenue or tariff bill, also had its effect
in deterring capitalists from any new enterprises.
But the revenue bill having passrd, and Congress
adjourned, we may speedily look for more activity
In trade, and hence for more demand for money. The
currency, ton, is getting bettet at various oinU ;
the crops of ad kinds' are coming In ; we have no
Tear of war with Great Britain, and the prospect is
improving. The great drawback upon farmers,
is low prices. Wheat is selling at various points
in Kentucky at SO rents a bushel, and at the same
price at Zanesville. Ohio, and at 49 cents in Cincin
nati. But these are specie prices, and when we re
member that the cropa are immense, perhaps the
cause of complaint is not so seiinus. , We repeat
that the currency is gradually improving through
out the country, that individuals have long been
engaged in curtailing their indebtedness, and that
the aigns of the times from all points, are more
cheering within the last few days. The suction
salea which took place last week in Philadelphia,
brought better prices, snd our merchmts on C hsnge
and in the principal business thoroughfares, speak
with a better feeling, and more confidence. The
fall trade will not probably be large, because the
effect of the salutary movements to which we have
alluded will not have reached the various sections
of country from which the southern and western
merchants come, in time. Still, it will exhibit con
siderable improvement, and the. very fact that the
multitude believe that business will grow better, will
produce a cheerful state of things to some extent
at least Even our State Stocks have increased in
price somewhat, more because of the better feeling
generally, than for any positive reason thst we have
been able to discover. On the whole, then, we
think we may congratulate our readers, and in
dulge a hope that matters will mend gradually hut
certainly, from the present time forward. Rick.

Mrlancliol jr Accident.
llrlrort of a Utter In the Editor of the Danville
Democrat, dated
Washington tills, August 30th, 1642.
Dear Bin : We had another dreadful accident
here on Saturday Isst. Chales Johirov, son of
James Johjost, Esq., a young man about 19
years of age, went on a fishing excursion in the
Creek near this town, with a seine, in company of
several persona. In going into the wster he got
deeper than his night, and being unable to swim,
was drowned in a few minutes. Too much blame
cannot be attached to those who were with him.
They made no effort to sve him, though the wa
ter was not over between five 01 six feet deep, and
they were within ten or twelve feet from him, when
he ssnk. Instead of attempting to rave him, (which
they could have done,) they cent to town for aid,
and it was near a half hour before the body wss re
covered. Every effort was wade th.it human ingenu
ity could deviaa, but it was of no avail-the vital spark
had fled. The deceased waa a young man of un
exceptionable character, and haa left a large circle
of friends who mourn his untimely fate. Thus has
been cut down, in the morning of his lite, a young
and promising youth, who bade fair to real ire the
highest expectation of his I'rienJs.
The sufferings of the poor in Philadelphia and
the lower comities is said to l very great, owing
to want of employment. A few Jiti hoi case
of actual starvation waa mentioned in a Philadel
phia paiier. The Saturday Evening Post gives
the following account:
"On Tuesday, a poor man was detected by a
butcher up Market street, in the act of taking a
piece of meat from his stand. He plead poverty
the starvation of his family, as the ocly cause of
bis act. At the moment, a gentleman standing l y,
and who heard the poor fellow's story, inquired the
price of the meat, and beii g answered as to its
value, was about to pay it, when the butcher with
characteristic goodness of heart, said, "No, sir, I
make it a present to him," and the man went away.
A circumstance of a similar character occurred last
week, but the butcher, instead of stopping the man,
quietly followed him to hir home, and Uion going
into the house, was astonished to see the children
of the poor fellow greedily devouring the raw meat,
wiih an avidity that could only arise from famine,
while the father st looking on unmindful of his
own sufferings. This wss too much for the sensi
bilities of the butcher, who left the house with pre
cipitation, but soon returned, having successfully
exerted himself lo procure relief for this starving
family."
Gold Wines of Oeorgtsu
The Milledgevaille Journal af a late data says :
"The success which is now attending gold dig
ging in the tXieroki country, is, we learn, very
great. Upon an average, it is said, thst common
hands can earn from one dollar to one dollar and
three-quarters per day, rlear of expenses. This is
better thsn making cotton not com for we bold
that the corn makrr, in the long run does better
than either the gold digger or the cotton planter.
Hut notwithstanding thia, we are pleased that our
(Sold minea in the Cherokee country, are proving
to be a source of profit. These are hard times
and hard money is much wanted. We team too,
that the demand for gold waa ao great, that many
speculators furnished themselves with, what they
supposed, the needful,' to buy up the glutei ing
metal, but they have been lo a great extent, tadly
disappointed. Their needful waa Ct lilral 11 ink
money, and the depreciation upon the notes of this
Dank hss been so great, that ths Miners would not
touch it, but st a rate of discount so great that the
peculators were compelled to abandon tbsir project."

Stkphk) OiaAi. The Philadelphia Evening
Journal in the course of some very severe strictures
on the life and character of Girard, holds forth in
this wiser
Girsrd acquired hi fortune chit fly at the ex
pense ol evriy principle, as well as the best feel
ings of humanity . In the courts of justice, he
tlcaded the statute of limitations, against righteous
debts and on one occasion, saved $40,000 by his
plea though then worth six millions of dollars.
On another occasion, he endeavored to swindle
widow and herchildien out of a farm in the neck,
for which an honest jury sweat him with h- avy
damages ; for, like sll tyrants, he seized on the
land, and left the widow to the uncertain remedies
of the mercenary law ; but the genius nf a Binney
recovered her property, and scourged the invadei
to the quirk. Hia private indirecttires, would
lire patience to enumerate them ; and disgust sober
minds by their profligate details."

FLOUR. There is very little demand for How
ard a: reel Flour, and the store price has further de.
dined. Ssles of good standard brands have been
made to-day to a moderate extent at f 4 60, and
some holders are offering to sell st the same price
now. There is no settled receipt price.
We hesr of no sales of City Mills Flour. Some
holders are willing to sell si ft 75, but others ask
4 87.
The maiket is almost bare of Susquehanna
Flout. Small tales at 4 75.
GRAIN. The supply of Wheat at m irkrt to day
is large, but thete are no prime tots offering. We
nominally quote good to prime Md. reds at 80 a 90
cents. Sales of inferior to good Ms at 50 a 75 ctg.
Prices exhib't rather a downward tendency. No
Pennsylvania Wheat at market for several days
Sales of Md. Corn al 50 eta. for white, and 50 a 51

52 eta. We quote Md. Rye at 50 cts. Ssles of

Sales of hhds. it 20 cts. and of bids, at 2 1 J a 22 cts.
A Few Works n Favor or Dr. Brashrkth's
Vko eta aLK Usitersal Pills. This valuable
medicine is aa well known in the United Slates,
and paitirularly in thia city, (Philadelphia.) as a
sovereign remedy in the cure and prevention of
disease, that we scarcely know what to say, that
will be received in its f.vor. One thing is certain,
they possess this eminent advantage over most o
Iher purgatives, that while they operate gently they
produce neither costiveness, debility, nor loo great
excitement; whenever there is a preuisposition to
a disease, arising from marsh effluvia, or too co
pious use of ardent spiiita, or a vitiatod state of the
bile, they sie sure to relieve.
We highly recommend them to travellers, by sea
and land, aa they may lie made use of with the ut
most safely, without change of diet or exerciae.
They will be (bund peculiarly beneficial in the pro
tection front disorders incidental to hot climates;
they deterge snd cleanse viscid humois, open ob
structions, promote the secretion of good bi e, ope
rating as a cathartic and poweiful diuretic and dia
phoretic. Daity Chronicle.

To tlie Citizens of MorthumbrrlanJ County :
Hatmu been placed brfore the public by the
Democratic party aa a candidate for Assembly, I
consider it my duty to the friends who nominated
me, to say, that any allegation that I am in favor
of attaching any part of Northumberland county to
Columbia rounly, is incorrect, No person of either
county has spoken to me with a view to that oh.
ject, in anticipation of my nomination or election.
I am opposed to such a change myself, and if elect
ed, would not sanction any measure of the kind.
If I am honored by the cilixens with sn election, I
shall endeavor to represent the wishes and interests
of the county fairlyvand with fidelity.
Very respectfully, your fellow citizen,
