The County Expenses.
We would suggest to the Editors of the " Wilkes
Barre Advocate" and " Wilkes-Barre Farmer,"
that thoy had better mind their own business, and
then if they had any spare time left, to devise a
plan for bettering the finances of Luzerne, instead
of busying themselves with the expenditures of
this County. The people of Monroe, we appre
hend are fully competent to manage their own af
fairs, and even if they required the assistance of
.some persons, we opine they would not call upon
the Editors in question, who have shown so little
skill in conducting transact ions at home. There
is at present no County in the Commonwealth
whose finances are in so deplorable a condition as
those of Luzerne. Many of their Tax. Collectors
have not settled their duplicates for years, and so
impossible is it to get any money out of the Treas
ury, that persons having claims against it are
obliged to sell their orders at a ruinous discount
to make them at all available.
Our hard-working Tax Payers are not at all
desirous to see such a state of things prevailing
here, and have a notion that by prudence, econo
my, and a careful husbanding of their resources.
they can avert it.
We have not examined the !
charges for printing in that Countv. but judging j
from the tone of their papers, have no doubt that j
they are extravagant enough- We have, however,
made n fair estimate of the printing done for this
Countv. and and that James Raffcrty has charged

But after all there may be some hidden motive
in this interference which we have overlooked.
Perhaps this brace of Editors are playing the same
game of grab, at home, that Jimmy Rafferty has
been bafiied in here, and are afraid that our inde
pendence may open the eyes of even the Tax rid
ien Luzcrnians, and be the means of cutting one
of their sources of plunder. If that is the place
in which the shoe pinches, they need look for no j eave ,,js evening or in the morning, with

Au Extra Session.
The old. Loco Foco plan for squandering the j
peofrfes" money by means of an Extra Session of
the Legislature, is to be revived ; our Solons' at
Harrisburg having resolved to adjourn on Tues
day next, to meet again on the 9th of June. By
this operation the State will be made to suffer to
the tune of about 850,000, at least, without any
benefit wftatevcr to the People. The reason al
leded for holding this Extra Session, is the dis
tricting of the State for Members of Congress;
which is but a pretext, as the election of those of
ficers might be postponed until after the next reg
ular Session. They are about to adjourn loo,
without making any provision to pay the domestic
creators of the Commonwealth, who have already
bteu kept out of their earnings so long that many of
them are suffering severely in consequence. The
in'.ercst on the State Debt falling due on the first
of August, also remains unprovided for, and unless
the Bill, before the House, which provides for rais
ing it by Taxation, be passed forthwith (of which
there is no probability) there will be no money in
the Treasury to pay it. The Legislature has been
fn S'esMon now almost three months, yet literally
nothing has been done to sustain our injured cred
it at home or abroad, or to relieve the State from
her embarrassments. The present Members, it
will be recollected, were elected with a view to
eronomv and reform, but the prodigal son himself
was not more extravagant than they have been
and now to cap the whole, .(not being able to squan
der er.wh at one sitting,) they must needs have
an Extra Session to drain the last farthing from
the public purse. This is the promised Loco Foco
retrenchment and reform. When will the people
have their eyes opened to the truth, and support
honest men for office, instead of party hacks and
politicians.
The Hanks and Money.
The Banks in Philadelphia, mentioned in out
last as having resumed, continue to pay specie
for all their liabilities. The run on them has
ceased, and they go on doing business again, just
as if no suspension had ever taken place. The
Moyamcnsirig, and the Mechanics1 Banks, who
were obliged to close their doors at the time of
general resumption, are making efforts, it is said
to re-open shortly and pay specie. The Relief
notes, and the notes of the broken and suspended
Banks, still remain at a heavy discount. The
Easton Bank pays gold and silver for all her notes,
and roes on swimmingly. She was the first one
in the State to resume, and is sound to the back
bone. The Allentown Bank is still under suspen
sion, and its notes are at a discount of from 10 to
15 per cent.
05s We learn from the United States Gazette,
that the case of Poslcns against Postcns, which
was tried here last May, and removed to the Su
preme Court by a Writ of Error, was argued at
Philadelphia, on Wednesday last. The opinion
of the Court, we suppose, will be delivered short
ly. The case of Bonnell vs. Brotzman. was also
argued.

Washington, March 23, 1S42. .
Senate. Mr. King, of Ala., took the Chair at
twelve o'clock- lie remarked to the Senate that
he did so at the request of the presiding officer,
who sent him i note to that effect.
The morning business then proceeded in the
Usual way.
Mj. Buchanan presented a memorial from citi
zens of Pennsylvania, praying Congress to give
additional protection to the Iron interests of the
country.
Among the General Orders was a Bill declaring
the assent of Congress to the State of Illinois to
impose a tax upon all lauds heretofore sold by the
United States in that State, from and after the time
of such sale. The Bill was debated very briefly,
favored by Messrs. Young, Roberts, Benton and
Buchanan; and opposed bv Mr. White, of Indiana,
upon the ground tnat it would prove more detri
mental to the interests of Illinois than strviceable.
The Bill was ordered tc be engrossed by a vo:e of
23 to 15 the yeas and nays being called.
The uresiding officer then called for the special
order of the day, being the Resolutions of Mr. Clay.
Mr. Clay said he was not able to proceed in the
i s;uiiiciii, "iiiui jit; nau j.iiu uui iui uiuistjn. uui
be- l0 hohble on in his argument he felt u
argument, which he had laid out for himself, but
to be better that he should do so than to ask farther
indulgence. He was much relieved in this labor
from the able aid which he had received from his
friends who had preceded him, and particularly
the very able and comprehensive speech of the
Senator from Maine, (Mr. Evans,) the Chairman
of the Committee of Finance. That Senator had
argued the question with all the skill and wisdom
which he was sure he could bring to the consider
ation of any subject.
Mr. Clay then proceeded to the argument, and
occupied the floor from one until after four o'clock
on the resolutions submitted by him some days
since. In the course of his remarks he replied in
detai1 10 o arguments of the opponents of the
"'eaamc, iuu.umg muuemau) uu icuuuuuiiiein,
revenue, and the distribution of the proceeds of
tne Public lands, and concluded by a powerful and
eloquent appeal to the Senators to throw aside all
Part' prejudices and party bias, and unite in one
great effort to restore a bleeding country to its
wonted prosperity.
The galleries were crowded to excess, and ev
ery avenue to the Senate literally blocked.
House. Mr. Everett, when the Journal was
read, demanded the yeas and nays upon the vari
ous votes connected with the case of Mr. Giddings.
The first hour of the session was consumed in
reading the Journal, and the secondjin propositions i
to amend it after it was read. Various members
took part in the proposition, and the yeas and nays
were taken at various times.
The Speaker laid before the House the resigna
tion of the Hon. J. R. Giddings. as a member of
the twenty-seventh Congress.
Mr. -ldams moved that the Speaker make the
Governor of Ohio acquainted with the resignation
of Mr. Giddings, with the view to a new election.
On motion of Mr. P'illmore, the House went in
to Committee of the Whole upon the Loan bill.
The committee had sustained the Chair in his opin
ion that the pending amendment (introduced by
Mr. Everett) was not in order.
Mr. Wise followed with a moreimportantamend
ment, which the chairman (Mr. Ward of New
York) decided to be in order.
The committee rose, and on motion to 'adjourn,
the yeas were 21, nays 110.
Mr. Morgan asked leave to offer a resolution for
the purpose of publishing the names of the absen
tees when there should be a call of the House
the Clerk to give the names to the printers, and to
state the hour of absence.
Another member proposed that the per diem
should be deducted in the case of absenco unless
a good excuse should be given.
These propositions were not in order, and ob
jections were made to hem, the end of which was
that the House were compelled to adjourn soon af
ter 3 o'clock.

Every one imagines they know how to make
brftad, and almost every one can wet up flour
and bake it, but it by no means follows they
know how to make bread. To make good
bread, good flour, good yeast, and good man
agement are required. One of the simplest
processes of making good bread is as follows:
To eight quarts of flour add three ounces of
and kneaded, and set by in a proper tempera
ture, will rise in about an hour or, perhaps,, a
little more. It will rise better and more equal
ly if the mass is covered. It must undergo a.
second kneadin" before it is formed into loaves
for the oven. The more bread is kneaded, the
better it wili be. Be careful not to allow your
bread to become sour in rising milk is by some
used instead of water in mixing: 'heir bread.
Milk will make white bread but it will not he
sweetrand dries quicker than bread made with
water.. If loaves are slinhily garbled with a
knife around the edges, before they are put into
the oven, crucking will be avoided in bakiti".
From an hour to an hour and half is required
to bake bread fully.

Typhus Fever. It cannot be too widely
known that nitrous acid gas possesses lhe pro
perty of destroying the contagion of the typhus
fever, and certainly of preventing its spread.
By the following simple method the gas may
be produced at a very trifling expense ; Place
a little powered salt petre in a saucer, and pour
on it as much oil of vitriol as will cover it; a co
pious discharge of acid gas will instantly take
place, the quantity of which may be regulated
by lessening or increasing the quantity of the
materials.
Filling np the Sea.
A Ship having sprung a leak, an Irish sailor
was employed at the. pump, but first looked
over the railing to see how high the water was
on the side of the vessel. After pumping an
hour he again look a peep over the side, and
findin" the vessel was four inches deeper than
when he began, he exclaimed, 'arrah now,
Captain dear: I shall soon pump-the sea full at
this rate, for 1 have raised four inches already."

Cure for ISse diseases in Peach-Trees.
As I have understood from a source that can
not be doubted thai there are persons employed
in this state and Pennsylvania, curing peach
trees and charging for doing so ; and as infor
mation has been received directly or indirectly
through me, without cost to them, I feel it a
duty L owe my fellow agriculturalists to make it
public.
The application to the trees consists of salt
and saltpetre combined; to eight parts of salt,
one half pound of this mixture to a tree seven
years old and upward, to be applied upon the
surface of the ground and in immediate contact
with the trunk of the tree; this will destroy the
worm, but to more effectually preserve the tree,
I also sow this mixture over my orchard at the
rate of two bushels to the acre. The size of
the fruit is increased, and the flavor very great
ly improved, the worm destroyed and the yel
lows prevented.
1 hope that oiher papers will place this mat
ter before their readers so as to prevent the
public from being imposed upon.
With high respect, I am yours, &c.

Farmer's Memoranda.
The farmers who wish to be well prepared
for the spring, must improve the time in mak
ing the following preparations, viz:
Repair all your tools. Rakes, for horse and
hand, should have broken teeth supplied ; hoes
should be good, sharp, and have good handles ;
forks in the same condition; ploughs, the wood
should be sound, and the shares good; harrows,
cultivators, rollers, should all be put in good
condition; carts and wagons prepared for use;
harness well repaired and oiled, and horses
kept in good order to wear it when the time
comes, bv "ood, regular, and careful feeding.
Seeds of all kinds should now be obtained,
clover, barley, corn, oats, &c, and of root crops,
as beets, carrots, turnips; and don't forget the
garden seeds.
Grafts of fine fruit may be procured; very
man should endeavor to add something each
year to his stock, if he only spends half a day
for the purpose in each year.
Grafting plasters may now be made use 8
parts rosin, 4 of beeswax, and 3 of tallow, melt
ed and spread on old cotton, or paper, to be
warmed over a kettle of coals before applied.
Trim apple trees old bearing trees that
have thick branches; and prune hardy grape
vines; so that they may not grow so dense,
and have fine fruit.
Repair fences, where practicable, especially
where the boards have been loosened from the
pests ; and observe the same toward gates.

Decision.
The Baltimore County Court have given a
decision in relation to the effect of tho Bank
rupt Law of the United States upon the present
Insolvent Law of Maryland. A person applied
for the benefit of the State law, and obtained a
personal discharge. He was subsequently con
fined for debt in Baltimore County jail, the war
den thereof refusing to recognize the discharge,
and applied to the Judges of Baltimore County
Court for a writ of habeas corpus, which was
"ranted. The case was argued at length, and
everv argument, pro and con, brought to bear
on the subject. The Court held that the per
sonal discharge granted by the commissioners
was valid, and protected the party from arrest
and imprisonment, and accordingly ordered him
to he disbhariicd Irom custody, i ho amount
of this decision would seem to be that the in
solvent laws of the Slate of Maryland, so far,
at least, as the person of the debtor is concern
ed, arc still in force, and not repealed by the
passage uf tho bankrupt law by Congress, and
that a personal discharge granted by the com
missioners of insolvent, debtors, exempts the
person of the applicant from arrest and impris
onment. Daily Chronicle.

This patriot of the Revolution was dining
one day with a I ory Judge, who gave as a toast
"The Kino." Mr. Adams and other V lugs
present drank the toast, but with no small re
luctance; and when his turn came, he recipro
cated the civility by saying : LeMis drink to tho
health of The Devil. This was so startling
and offensive, that it would have produced un
pleasant consequences, had not the Judge's
lady, with the admirable tact of her sex, divert
ed" the tide of wrath into another channel, by
observing: 'Pray do not scruple to drink the
toast; Mr. Adams has drank to the health of
our friend, and you ought not to hesitate in
drinking to the health of his!1 This was
pouring oil upon the waves, and it restored the
good humor of the hour- The name of the
Judge, if my memory be correct, was Paine.
