The Bank Bill.
We find in the .Lewistown Gazetta
the following abstract of the Bank Bill
which recently passed the Legislature
and has been signed by the Governor :
The Legislature has passed a General
Banking Act, regtilating the Bunks of the
State that shall hereafter be chartered
and re•chartered. By this law the lia ,
bility principleisextendcdtoall issues of
Banks—all foreign notes, or the notes
of other States under the denomination
of ten dollars, are excluded from circu
lation in this Commonwealth—the Di
rectors are made personally liable for
the deposites and other debts, in case of
the fraudulent insolvency of banks
t•.aslner,s are required to give bond to the,
amount of one-fifth of the capital, when
it is $200,000 and under; in one•eigtith
When it is between $200,000 and $5OO,-
000 ; and in one-tenth, where it is over
$500,000 and nut exceeding $1,000,000.
The extent of the term for which each
bank shall be chartered, is fifteen years,
Banks can be chartered for a less pert=
nd, but none for a greater, in the aggre
gate. The bill also e.untains a proeision
requiring the country banks east of the
inouninina, to keep their bills at par in'
Philadelphia, and those west of the
mountains at par in the city of Pitts
burgh. It has been signed by the Gov
ernor.
We have looked over the above act,
'end find some provisions that may be an
itnprovetnetit on the old charters, but in
the main nothing that will make note
holders safer than they were before.—
By this law a single section of a dozen
lines will suffice to create a new Bank,
and considering that but little scruple
exists among oar bank-hating "demo
cratic" legislators to smuggle "monor
olies" into existence, we should not be
surprised to see a Wild Cat, Fox Tail,
or Crow Scalp Bank chartered in some
stronghold of locofocoism by attaching
such a section to an important bill under
the head of "other purposes."
Mob Violence.
GROSS OUTRAGE UPON WOMEN AND
CHILDREN.
We find the following in the St. Louis Repub
lican, of the 9th host
We learn from Henry county, Illinois, that a
series of outrages have recently been committed
upon the Sweedish colony located in that county,
and that they are threatened with extermination
from the county. The men engaged in these
outrages number about seventy, from the town
of Cambridge and Rock river, in the same coun
ty, and they are headed by a fellow named John
Root. This man, it seems, married Charlotte
Louisa Johnson, but as they did not live happily
together, she left him and fled to her relations
for protection against his violence. About the
20th March, Root visited the colony with a mob,
with the intention of regaining possession of
his wife, but she had left and gone to a place of
safety. Root irritated by his desertion, deter
mined to avenge himself upon the innocent mem
bers of the colony, collected a mob, paraded the
streets armed, and threatened to bill, the houses
and kill the inhabitants. They searched the
colony and then left.
On the 27th they returned, and commenced
demolishing come of the houses, tore off some
of the boards of the church, discharged their
guns, and ordered the inhabitants to leave their
houses, so that they could burn them down.—
They drove all the men of the colony into the
church, and the women and children into the
hospital. Next day, the mob again assembled
and burned the hay stacks of the colony, and set
fire to the buildings at little Gill, two miles
from Cambridge. The principal men and wo
men of the colony fled from the fury of the mob.
and are now in St. Louis. No member of the
colony had anything to do with the separation
of Root and his wife, and of course they are not
answerable in any shape fur it.
Root pretends to an intimate knowledge of the
bad dellans on the part of the colony, and cif._
✓otates slanders of all kinds against them. But
it is known that they are an innocent and un
offending people. They are christians, worship
ing God according to the bible, which is their
sole guide. They eat at a common table, and
work for the common benefit, but each family
lives by itself. Marriage is recognised by therri.
In nothing do they differ from other christians,
except that they eat at a common table, and
work iOr the common benefit. They suffered
severely from the cholera last year, and seventy
widows with their children are left dependent
upon the colony for support. The colony owns
about .1,000 acres of land, a church, a large four
story brick dwelling house, two other brick
houses, five frame buildings, and other small
houses for store rooms—a wind-mill, a (lax
machine, two saw-mills, a grist-mill, a steam
flouring-mill, and a large part of the land is im
proved. The property, exclusive of personal
frets, is valued at $50,000. The colons , now
contains about 100 men, 2511 women and girls,
and 200 children. In one respect, they resem
ble the Quakers—they hold to the doctrine of
non-resistance, and have offered no violence to
the mob.
A people such its we have described—mainly
women and childrenare at the mercy, it seems,
of an outrageous mob.
Accordinv, to the latest advices, the mob had
fixed the Gth instant tot the destruction of the
village in which the colonists Were located, but
it is hoped that this threat was nn.. put into exe
cution. It is certain that all appeals to the au
thorities of the county for protection are in vain,
end they have besought the interposition of the
Governor of the State—a request which ought
, not to be denied them.
ig-Over eighteen thousand of the
poor of New York are housed and lodg
ed in underground basements, the num
ber of such basements occupied by them
being three thousand, seven hundred and
forty-two, of which about one half have
but one room, and the number of occu
pants averaging five to a basement.—
Nearly one-third of these are classified
as dirty in person, and as occupying
basements of the same description.

Terrible Steamboat Accident on the
Western Waters.-100 Lives Lost.
CINCINNATI, April 23—P. M.
A dreadful accident, the most awful
ever witnessed on the Western waters,
happened this morning to the steamer
"Belle of the West" one mile below
Warsaw, Ey. where she took fire and
was almost totally consumed. She had
on board, when she left this city, a large
party of emigrants bound to California,
one hundred of whom are supposed to
have been either drowned or burned to
death. So sudden was the rush. of the
flames that all escape was hopeless.—
The Akers of the boat were saved by
jumping overboard and swimming to the
shore. There was as insurance on the
boat for $B,OOO, She was owned in this
city, and was on her way to St. Louis.
Second Dispatch.
MADISON, lrid. Tuesday April 23.
From the officers of the steamer Wis
consin and an eye-witness of the bur
ning of the "Belle of the West," we
gather the following
At about half-past 12 last evening, the
steamer was discovered on fire in the
hold, and was immediately run ashore
near Warsaw and made fast. Up to
this period the flames had not burst forth
and the after hatch was opened for the
purpose of getting water into the hold,
but such was the rapid headway of the
flames that all efforts to check them
proved fruitless, and in a few minutes
the entire boat was n mass of fire. The
total number of passengers on board was
about 400, among whom were two Cali
fornia Companies and 30 familes, who
were removing to the %Vest. From the
register it is ascertained that over 60
have perished, and the probability is
that many have been lost whose names
were not enrolled thereon. Such was
the rapid progress of the fire thnt, be
fore the passengers could get out of
their state-rooms after the first alarm,
all communication between the after cab
in and the forward part of the boat was
cut off; and all were compelled either to
jump into the water or to perish in the
flames. At the time of the deck falling
in, n lady and gentleman, with a child,
were standing between the chimneys.—
There were also on board a large num
ber of horses, which were mostly burned
to death ; the remained were so badly
burned that they were k illed to pot them
out of misery.
Romance in Real Life.
The Lewisburg Chronicle announces
the marriage on the 14th inst., in that
place, of JOHN JOIINSON and Mrs. MARIA
MILLER, of Chill isquaque township, Nor
thumberland county, and tells the follow
ing romantic story respecting the hap
py pair: The groom, who now works
in the boat yard here, was formerly a
sea-faring man. The bride is from
South Carolina ; and her father, and for
mer husband, both of whom have been
(lead many years, were wealthy plan•
tors. Some five years ago, the young
widow made a visit to England, in com
pany with her brother, a southern gen
tleman of fortune, and on the return
voyage they embarked in a vessel in
which the groom was serving as a com
mon sailor. By some accident she was
knocked overboard in the harbor of Liv
erpool, sunk to the bottom, and was
given up for lost. Our hero, however,
did not abandon the search. A slight
change in the position of the vessel dis
covered her, the water being remar
kably clear, lying on the ground twen
ty feet below the surface, and apparent
ly dead. He instantly plunged to the
bottom, seized her by the hair, and
brought her to the top. A large lock
of hair wits pulled out in the attempt
which is still preserved. After sonic
hours of perserveriug exertion, she was
filially brought to and fully restored.—
She was deeply grateful to the preser
ver of her life, and during the voyage
she formed a strong attachment for him
and a union for life was resolved upon.
Their plans were, however frustrated,
and for several years they never met.—
In the mean time her fortune became
impaired. Some three or four months
ago she heard of his location here, and
immediately came on from Charleston
to see hitn. Her uncle, however, over
took her and carried her back. She came
on again some three weeks ago, but was
confined to bed for some time by sick
ness. Recovering, on last Sabbath eve
ning the long deferred nuptial knot was
tied, and the rescuer and rescued are
now united in a life-partnership, “for
better or tot Cvorse."
A STsuarZPßEActuta.—A rirrEa
—On Thursday evening week, upon the
arrival of the cars from Washington, at
the Pratt street depot, says the Balti
more Sun, at attempt was made by some
scientific abstractionist to fleece a wor
thy clergyman. The Reverend gentle
man, upon alighting from the car, felt a
hand in his pocket, softly removing his
pocket-book, which contained $2OO,
(not a small sum for a preacher) and
quickly turning round, he dealt the
scoundrel such a blow in the physiog
nomy, as to knock him down, the pock
et book falling upon the ground at the
same time. The preacher hastily pick
ed up the wallet, and looking round saw
the fellow going it at the rate of 2.40.

murdered his own brother-in-law, at St.

the plea of insanity, has since murdered
his father.
Letter from Professor IVebstees
Daughter.
The following letter is published in
the Manchester Messenger. It will be
read with painful interest.
CAMBRIDGE, A pril 8, 1850.
Daniel Marsh, Esq-1 this morning
received the very kind letter you addres
sed to me, and which I hasten to answer,
to thank you in the name of my mother,
my sisters and myself, for the erne sen
timents you entertain respecting my be
loved father. You believe him innocent
and you believe what is erne. He is the
victim of circumstances, a deeply inju
red man. That he is innocent, we his
family know, and nothing on earth will
ever take from us this conviction. We'
have never, from the moment he was
snatched from his home, had a shadow
of doubt on our minds ; and whatever
the world may say or d 9, we shall ever
have that feeling to support us. The
' knowledge of his innocence supported
my father during the hours of suffering,'
in the court room ; that it is that gives
hint and us calmness now, amidst the
many sources of sorrow that have over
whelmed its.
Far different from what we anticipated
was the result of the trial; for we had
been assured throughout the winter that
our father could not but be restored to
us, and that at the trial he must receive
justice for the many wrongs that had
been heaped upon him. But justice fled
from the court room, and prejudice took
her place.
Yet hope still lingers with us, for we
trust that the public voice will be raised
against the gross injustice that has been
committed, and will not allow our coun
try to bear such a stigma on her name,
such an everlasting stain, as will be that
of the sacrifice of one so truly innocent
as my father. And if one word from us,
sir, would add a feather's weight to the
efforts that are being made, oh, may w 2
give you the deep assurance of our
hearts, that we feel grateful for the in
terest you express and feel, and for what
you are doing in our behalf. May God,
in his infinite mercy look down upon
you, and bless the efforts that are being
made, and if it is not his will to bring
the truth to light, and to allow this aw.
fill mystery to be explained, may He en•
lighten the minds of those into whose
hands the case will pass.
I must again thank you, for the kind
feelings you express towards my dear
father. Nothing that the world can do
now gives us greater consolation than
the knowledge that others believe him
innocent. Sympathy has flowed abun
dantly from many hearts towards us,
his family ; but how much more prized
by us is that sympathy, when expressed
to him. That our beloved father may be
restored to us, is the fervent prayer of
our hearts, and we wait tremblingly in
the hope that those who are now to de
cide in this case may see the terrible
injustice that has been committed, and
has inflicted so much suffering on so
many. Believe me, sir, gratefully yours,
HARRIET W. WEBSTER.
OLD BULLION CRUSTY.-Mr. Grund,
correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, has
been writing a series of p.ingent para
graphs against Benton, and his hostility
to the Compromise Committee. A few
days ago, Mr. Grund met Mr. Benton
in the ante-chamber of the Senate, when
the following short conversation took
place.
Mr. Grund (bowing politely)—Ah !
Good morning Col. Benton, how is your
health this morning sir 1
Mr. Benton—Your name, sir, I believe
is Grund 1
Mr. Grund—Yes sir, that is my
name.
Mr. Benton—And you write letters
for the Baltimore Sun, over the signa
ture of X
Mr. Grund—Yes, sir, that is my sig
nature.
Mr. Benton—Well, sir, I have only
to say that while I can sand your abuse
I can dispense with your bows. Good
morning sir.
Mr. Grund (bowing again)—Good
morning sir. Exeunt einnes.
Of course Mr. Grund is more severe
upon Mr. Benton than ever.
A LAwyint UNLIKE HIS FELLOWS.-Mr.
Prentiss, of New Orleans, strongly cen
sures the practice of attorneys taking
a fee to assist the state in a criminal
prosecution. He adds that he has not
for years taken such a fee, and that he
never will take one. The editors of the
Crescent City say they have known him
to refuse a fee of $5,000 to prosecute,
