    'fieasurer, to meet both the Interest and the
Appropriations. It is a very deplorable fact,
that no man in office, fn the Legislature, or in
ihe State, is able to dissipate the cloud that is
fUjpcii(ed over our financiarrelations ; and fur
Sh a correct statement of the money on which
the jState can rely, to pay the interest due pub
lic creditors. Why this mystery should char
acterise a Republican State, where every trans
ition of Government ought to bo as open as
the day, it is impossible to conjecture but that
ii reflects no credit on our honesty, or ability,
is but too apparent to be denied.
As the Legislature is now in sesion, may
we not cherish the hope, thai some system of
Finance will be matured, that will not only ob
viate all obscurity in the public accounts, but
compel a periodical publication of the receipts
and expenditures, funds and appropriations,
with every necessary information that will tend
10 enlighten the public creditors, or instruct the
people in the real condition of the Common
wealth ? Secrecy is not a trait of free govern
ment. It answers no good purpose, and may
be used to aid the most iniquitous projects ol
gambling and speculating in public securities.
The Relief Notes call upon tho Legislature
for prompt and efficient action to abate tho nui
sance incident to the ragged and filthy condi
tion of this depreciated currency especially in
reference to the over issues of the Reading
Bank, made in good faith at the urgent solici
tation of Governor Porter, and now in the hands
of innocent parties. Altogether of an uncon
stuutional character, they appeal in irresistable
terms to the Legislature, for some immediate
provision to liquidate them. If now used to
pay the interest on the public debt, -they will
again be used for the same purpose in Februa
rv 1846, and thus, by periodical postponement,
become fastened and instilled upon us till
doomsday. If we must have a small paper
currency, under five dollars, let the Banks be
authorized to issue it, payable in specie, and
ihus rid the community of a spurious medium
that is hourly making the public familiar with
an abuse of power, whose moral influence is
any thing but salutary and beneficial.
Stocks do not improve, and the rate of mo
ney continues above legal interest, which indi
cates a prosperous condition of trade, commerce,
agriculture and manufactures.
It won't do. It won't do to imagine that a le
gislature, who feed at the public crib, will sit but
six weeks, when two-thirds of the members have
not capacity enough to earn a decent living at
home.
Judge McLean Resigned. The Hon.
Judge McLean, of Ohio, has resigned his seal
on the bench of the Supreme Court to take ef
fect in February. It is expected that the Hon.
Peter Hitchcock, of the reserve, will be his
successor. If a Court of Chancery is estab
lished, Judge McLean will probably be the
Chancellor.
Filthy Rags. Small pox is raging in Hart
ford, communicated to the girls in a paper mill
from the rays
ID A LIVING SKELETON TO ALL Ap
pearance, applied to Dr. Ryan corner of Bowery
and Prince street, for advice. After relating his
symptoms, the Doctor told him he had worms, and
he could cure him. The man shook his head, and
said it was impossible. lie gave him a box of
Sherman's Worm Lozenges with directions how
to take them. In three days he returned and said
he felt like a new being that the first dose bro't
away a tape worm 70 or SO feet long, and the sec
ond dose brought away about 28 feet more. Thus
two doses of Sherman's Worm Lozenges effects a
cure, where the combined skill of our best physi
cians could afford no relief. Although but a few
months have elapsed, he is now as fat and hearty
as he ever was in his life. After years of misery,
swallowing enormous quantities of medicine, and
spending hundreds of dollars without benefit, he
was cured by only one box of Sherman's Worm
Lozenges.
A fresh supply of the above valuable medicines
just received, and for sale at the Republican Office.

Mr. Polk's majority over Mr. Clay.-exclusive
of South Carolina, is 38,284. If to this be ad
ded 20,000 as the majority for Mr. Polk in S.
Carolina, whose vote is not included in the
above, the Legislature of that state choosing
'he Electors, Mr. Polk's aggregate majority
over Mr. Clay is 58,284.
The Abolition vote, as staled above, is 62,
127, and exceeds Mr. Polk's majority over Mr.
Uay by 3,843. Polk, it will thus be seen, has
been elected President of the United Slates by
a minority of the popular vote.
CORN. We learn from the Frontier Whig,
published at Van Buren, Ark., that the corn
crops in the Cherokee and Choctaw Nations
J are faHenhort, and that in consequence corn
lv commanding $1 and 1 00 per hushel, and is
carve at that. The Government contract for
supplying ten thousand bushels of corn to the
Harrison at Fori Towson was taken at 25 cents
per bushel. The contractor will probably have
" tniike his purchases in some of -Oil!, other
eMerii Slates, as corn is scarce in Arkansas,
and commands 59 cents per bushel at Van Bu
. The corn crop failed in Texas, and corn
s selling at very high prices in thai portion of
lexas borderjug on Red River.

Stroudsburg, 1st mo., 30, 1815.
Water Melons have made iheirappcarane in
New York, says the Tribune. From the South
lf tourse,
Worms Ii!J Tlimssasids.
CHILDREN are most subject to them, but per
sons of all ages are liable to be afliicted with
them. Bad breath, paleness about ihe lips, flush
ed cheeks, picking at the nose, wasting away,
leanness, pain in the bowels, joints or Iimbs,;dis
turbed sleep, frightful dreams, moaning and some
times a voracious appetite, are among the symp
tomps of worms. Many are doctored for months
for some other imaginary disease, when one box,
of bherman s Worm .Lozenees would ehect a cure
Dr. Ryan, corner of Prince street and the Bowery
cured a man of worms that was reduced to a skel
eton, and by only one box of Sherman's Lozenges
he is now as fat as an alderman. The Hon B
B. Beardsley has saved the life of one of his chit
dren bv them. The sale of over 2,000,000 of boxes
has fully tested them. They are the only infalli
ble worm destroviner medicine known. What
family will be without them ?
Consumption, Coughs, Colds, Whooping Coughs
Asthma, and all affections of the lungs, will rind
a healing value in Sherman s Cough Lozenges.
They saved the Rev. Richard Be Forrest, the
Rev. Mr. btreeter, Jonathan Itowarth, li.sq., and
that worthy old hero, Leonard Rogers, from the
consumptive's grave. They cured in one day, the
Rev. Mr. Dunbar, the Kev. Mr: Handcock, Wm
H. Atlree, Esq., of distressing coughs. They are
the pleasantest cough medicine and cure the soon
est of rfny known remedy.
Headache, Sea-sickness and Palpitation, re
lieved in from five to ten minutes by bherman s
Camphor Lozenges. Persons attending crowded
rooms or travelling will find them to impart buoy
ancy of su'nits and renew their energies- Those
suffering from loo free living will find a few of the
lozenges to dispel the horrors and lowness of
spirits. Mr. Krauth, of the Sunday Mercury, has
repeatedly cured himself of severe headache by
them. Captain Chadwick, of the packet ship
Wellington, has witnessed their efficacy in a great
many cases of sea-sickness. They operate like a
charm upon the agitated or shattered nerves, as
Sherman's Poor Man's Plaster does upon rheu
matism, lumbago, pain or weakness in the side,
back, breast, or any part of the body. Mr. IL G.
Daggers, 30 Ann street, Henry R. Goulding, 35i
Chatham street, Moses J. Henriques, Esq., and a
multitude of others have experienced the wonder
ful effects of these Plasteis. Price only 13 1-2
cents. Caution is necessary to see that you get
the genuine Sherman's Lozenges and Plasters, as
there are many worthless articles attempted to be
palmed off" in place of them, by those who would
trifle with your life for a shilling.
A fresh supply of these valuable medicines just
received and for sale at the Republican office.
