Small Notes.
The Cumberland Miners' Journal of
Friday last, says:---The House of Dele
gates of this State, have passed a law with
but two dissenting voices, prohibiting the
passage of bank notes of a smaller denomi
nation than five dollars, other than notes
of our own banks. This is a judicious
measure and cannot be too highly apprecia
ted. We have for years been inundated
with the small notes of other States—par
ticularly of Pennsylvania and Ohio, more
than one half of which aro counterfeit.—
Our unsuspecting citizens have lost consid
erable by the impositions of the designing,
but this law, wo hope, will remedy the evil.

throats of his daughter, aged about 15
years, and of his little son, aged 3 years,
and then, after setting fire to the house,
cut his own throat. The bodies of the
three wore burned to a crisp. The wife
of White had left him in consequence of
his course towards her. The throats of
the children were cut with an axe, and
the boy's skull had also been crushed in.

Free Thinking.
A bill has been introduced into the Le
gislature of Pennsylvania, knon as the
Free Banking Law, the object of which is
to throw open the business of banking to
private capital the same as any other le
gitimate trade or calling. Its main fea
ture is, that any association of persons
purchasing stocks of this Commonwealth
or the United States to an amount, not
less than twenty-five thousand dollars,
shall be entitled to letters patent confer
ring upon them a corporate name, and shall
then be entitled to receive from the Audi
tor General of the Commonwealth, notes
in the nature of bank notes, signed by the
Auditor General, of any desired denomi
nations to an amount nearly equal to the
stocks purchased by the said association of
persons, which notes can then be paid out
and circulate as bank notes now do. Ev
ery note the bank issues must be signed by
the Auditor General, so that it cannot is
sue beyond its capital stock while the Au
ditor General, who is disinterested does his
duty. The bank can, at no time, issue
notes to the full amount of its purchased
stocks, so that, if by some misfortune, the
bank should break, the note-holders would
be paid out of a sale of the stocks upon
which it started business. In place of is
suing paper to three times the amount of
capital actually paid in under the free
banking law, it cannot issue to the full
amount of its capital stock, so that the
note-holder has a security over and above
the good faith and credit of the bank.—
This system of banking is open to every
association of persons, not less than five,
if we can recollect rightly, who can pur
chase the requisite amount of stock. The
present system of banking is a monopoly
enjoyed by a few under a special privilege
granted by the Legislature. When these
monopolies are in good condition they pay
fine dividends to the stockholders at the
expense of their customers. Being few
in number and enjoying the exclusive con
trol of the money trade, which is the most
terrible heart-hardener on earth, they and
their officers become audacious and super
cilious. When a man deals awhile exclu
sively in money, the features of his face
begin to assume the appearance of a Qom
bination of ground-squirrel and devil, which
is a decidedly unpleasant incarnation to
encounter in a banking house.
But the free banking law, whioh throws
the money trade open to all who may de
sire to embark in it, and which will at
least mollify the vigors, if not extirpate
the present exclusive system entirely, is
opposed by the locofocos. They are
throwing all their force on the side of the
old banks, chartering new ones and adding
capital to the old. They are of opinion,
that but few people should be entrusted
with money, and that the great body are
not fit to manage it. They desire that it
shall be chained like a tiger and kept like
a tiger until keepers and all turn tiger.—
The old banks are in close communion with
their locofoco friends engaged in the same
undertaking—to defeat the passage of the
free law. The Ledger, the Keystone and
and the locofoco papers generally are try
ing to sustain the old banks and old sys
tem. The Ledger is specially employed
by the Philadelphia banks to advocate
their cause.
We have no antipathy to banks, but be
lieve them to be necessary and convenient
for the community, still we desire to have
them in the least objectional shape. The
free, we consider a decided improvement
on the old system and hope it may find fa
vor in the eyes of the wise men at Harris
burg.
ANOTHER POISONING CASE.—The fam
ily of John Baker, residing at No. 35
Carlton street, was poisoned last week, and
eight of the ten members of the family
were attacked with vomiting soon after
breakfast, on Tuesday morning. This was
attributed to the eating of bread that was
baked the same morning, as the eight par
took of it, and the other two, who were not
sick, did riot. Dr. Hartshorne was called
in, and spelt examining the flour of which
the bread Wll,l baked, pronounced the poi
son to be arsenic, and the flour to be strong
ly impregnated with it. The flour was
purchased the day previous, from the mil
ler who usually supplied the house. The
whole affair seems to be wrapped in mys
tery. All the members of the family have
recovered.—Ledger.

of the Bostonians who threw the tea over

[For the " Huntingdon ;Journal." I
Mr Editor : In submitting the folitiw ,
ing remarks to the christian world throtigh
the medium of the press,l have been in
fluenced by a sense of uty from my own
observations, believing that in almost every
transaction of man's life his weakness is
perceptible. Every action—every inci
dent—the silent heavens—the listning
earth, all proclaim in reason's ear, that
man is a fallen creature,"dust thou art
, and unto dust thou shat return." We
may perhaps view it as a matter of mi
nor importance in what manner we conduct
ourselves towards the person and family of
an indigent neighbour, we may behold their
bodies laid in the grave with as melt apa
thy as we behold the carcas of a dog
thrown into a pond—or we may hear of
the death of such persons, or see their
corpse pass our door with none but their
relatives to follow them to their grave and
not seem to think that it is our duty to as
sist in intering the remains of that fellow
mortal. While on the other hand if an
opulent neighbour or a member of his fami
ly dies, the inquiry is, when did he die—
where will he be buried and at what hour?
—and ere that hour arrives we see carria
ges, horse men, foot men and vehicles of
almost every description in every direction,
repairing to the house of mourning. The
hour appointed to start to the grave arri
ves--the sable hearse moves off and a
long train of followers join in behind —and
the very lanes of the valley seemed wan
ting space for this vast procession. But
why this vast contrast? The reason is ob
vious, one is rich; the other is poor; one is
respected in consequence of his wealth,
the other is neglected because of his indi
gence. I was deeply impressed with the
truth of these remarks a short thus since,
when at the funeral of an indigent neigh
bour. Near the corpse set the wife of
that once dearly beloved husband two or
three children and a few relations were all
that were present. The hour of departure
arrived and the wife and children took the
last farewell look at the corpse of their de
-parted father and husband. The proces
sion (if such it may be called consisting of
six or eight who followed the vehicle
which contained the corpse,) in due time
arrived at the grave where the relatives
were obliged to assist in intering the
corpse. A short time afterwards I was at
the funeral of an opulent neighbour, here
the contrast was strikingly illustrated, ev
ery vehicle of conveyance was on the alert,
every one seemed anxious to get to the
funeral of their wealthy neighbour, not
that he was more meritorious or worthy
than the other person spoken of—but simp
ly because he was wealthy and the other
poor, the remains of one received a re
spectible obsequies and unmerited atten
tion in consequence of his loaded coffers
and wide domains. While the other was
neglected and despised, because of his pov
erty.- Why is it so? Why is it that men,
"citizens of this land of light and knowl
edge" will suffer themselves to be thus led
astray? Why is it that men will suffer
themselves to be thus infatuated? Boa
der, pause and think, that
"Wealth makes the man in folly's eyes
But virtue is a higher prize."

iIY" The Congressional appointment of
Indiana has recently been made. Taking
the last Presidential vote as the test, the
Whigs will have two districts—the Loco
feces nine. In 1848 there were in the
State 69,607 votes for Taylor and 74,745
for Cass. .So that the sentiments of about
70,000 men will be represented by two
votes in Congress, and 75,000 by .nine
votes! Such is Locefoco regard for the
rights of the people.

Renewal of Hostilities by Caravajal—
Capture of Camargo—Probable At
tack upon .Matamoros.
Nnw ORLEANS, March s.—By an ar
rival, to-day, from Brazos Santiago, we
have advices from Bownsville, Texas, via
Indianola, to the '24th ult., stating that
hostile operations had been renewed by
Caravajal, the 18th February, with a large
ly inreased force, and on the 20th he had
stormed and captured Camargo, after a
feeble resistance from the Mexican troops.
The accounts represent the force of Cara
vajal much to exceed his former force, and
that disaffection with the Government was
spreading, thus increasing his chances of
success.
It was the purpose of Caravajal to move
immediately upon Matamoros; and passen
gers report that there is little doubt that
the attack had been commenced on the
morning of the 25th, as heavy cannona
ding was heard in that direction the day
the vessel left.
Cotton Factories Burned.
Norms:Nom, March 6.—A cotton fac
tory of 2600 spindles, employed in the

A cotton factory of 360 . 0 . spindles, situ

A few Facts of interest.
In 1847 the Canal Comniiasionerarepor
ttd that the tolls on the public works
amounted to $1,5871095
The ekiAtiditurce 690,575
Alleging that
were cleared by the public works that Akin
In 1849 the receipts from that
source were $1,1282860
The expenditures they said were '951,249
Leaving an alleged balance of $677,611
In 1851 the receipts were $1,719,788
Alleged expenditures 1,079,822
Alleged balance
This statement, says the Independent
Whig, though made by the Canal Commis
sioners is false. The State Treasurer in
his report states that the amount received
in the year 1851, for toll was $1,719,788;
but that the amount actually paid from the
State Treasury to the public works was
$1,823,709 92—being $734,000, more
than the Canal Commissioners asserted,
and showing that the receipts last year
from the public works, were $104,000 less
than the expenditures!!
Admitting the Canal Commissioners'
statement to be true, what is a revenue of
$639,966 on an original outlay of $30,- 1
000,000 or now $40,000,000, including
the interest semi-annually paid upon this
huge debt? New York, Maryland, and
other States are deriving from their pub-,
lie Works handsome revenues which arc
materially reducing the public indebted
ness. It is Pennsylvania alone which,
notwithstanding hem superior natural ad-,
vantages, gains no revenue of consequence' ,
from her public improvements. Thanks to ,
the blundering and plundering manage
-
went of the corrupt Canal officers with
whom our State is cursed.
Martial Spirit of the Americans.
If Lord John Russell intends to meas
ure our defensive preparations by the lim
its to which "even the United States" car
ried these peculiar institutions, it will be
hard to say where our national soldiering
is to stop. In the matter of estimates, it
is true that the demonstrations of Awed-
ea are exceedingly moderate and pacific;
but in respect of genuine martial spirit,
and fondness for military display, there
are no people on earth more conspicuous'
than the countrymen of Elihu l3urritt.—
The fact is worth observing, both by those
who are entrusted with the administration
of affairs and those who have charged
themselves with the peculiar advocacy of
the doctrines of peace. Undoubtedly,
where the regular army is small, the an
nual expenditure is small also; but where
every man is a perfect soldier in his own
conceit, the spirit of military enthusiasm
can never fail to be effectually diffused.
No people have been more pugnacious than
the eitizeds of free States habituated to
volunteer soldiering. It has been repeat
edly seen in America that the habits of the
militiamen pass with the utmost prompti
tude into those of the regular campaigner;
and we very much doubt whether the em
peror of Russia himself commands half so
martial a population as the President of
the Union. Early in the American war
it was plainly discerned, by the most sa
gacious of British statesmen, that our ar
mies, superior as they showed themselves
in the field, must bo utterly unavailing
against the resources of a country where
every citizen could wield a musket with
good will against an invader. The result
proved the truth of the prediction; and
though we do not, as we have said, con
sider the tendencies of those institutions
as highly pacific, there is no doubt that
they furnish an impregnable bulwark
against hostility attack.—London
SCARLET FEVER REMEDY.—Wo pub
lished a year or two ago a simple remedy

tire success of the experiment. Others
are just now sending us testimonials_of the
Astonishing and speedy cures recently
wrought by it. We mention the matter,

MEN WITH TAILS.—The old story of
the discovery of a race of men with caudal
appendages,in Africa, is again revived •in
France, and it is asserted that evidence in
substantiation of the st•itement has boon
produced. The tails are said to be from
twelve to fifteen inches long. We hope
the Geographical society of Paris will offer
a reward for one of the interesting gentle
men; we shall then have a "price tail"
worth talking about:—.Mrs. Swiss,helm.
A WiBE ONE.—A writer in the London
Daily News shows his intimate acquain
tance with the United %des by calling
"Philadelphia the capital of a slave State,"
holds the inhabitants as "southerners," and
says that "to argue with them on the sub
ject of slavery is impossible."

The California Emigration.
Some idea of the rush to California ' and
of the crowds who throng the Isthmus
awaiting a passage may be formed from
the fact lliat the steattiship Golden Gate,
which left Panama on the 12th ultimo for
San Francisco, took up thirteen hundred
pasVengbrs! The Net.) Gileatik, oh the
samq day, took pp six hundred. A large
nuMber alto took passage by sailing ves
sels, between the Ist Ind 16th of Februa
ry, and there yet remained at Panama
tween four and five thousand person§
awaiting a conveyance to California. ,
The telegraph reported that the steam
er McKim, bound up from Panama, had
put into San Diego, with her passengers
dying from starvation, having been sixty
four days from Panama. The only addi
tional account we can find of this melan
choly affair is the following, which is deri
ved from the report of the officers of the
steamship Tennessee, at Panama:
"The steamer Mckim was at San Diego,
having been 64 days from Panama.—
When she started she had 200 passengers;
about thirty died at San Diego. The
Captain turned the whole patty ashore, re
fusing to have any thing more to do with
them. lie obtained some provisions ) how
ever, and took them all back, sending fifty
into the forest to cut wood for fuel to en
able them to reach San Francisco. They
are probably at this time engaged in cut=
ting wood."
f 97,420
$639,966
The unexpected accession of some fait
or five thousand individuals to the popula
tion of the Isthmus has produced a scarcity
of provisions. Pork was selling at from
$6O to $7O per barrel, and beefitt $5O a
barrel. This, and the crowded state of
the Isthmus steamers, must occasion great
suffering to the . California emigrants.—

TILE LATE ROBBERY AND MURDER IN
New ORLEANS.-All the parties under
arrest for the robbery of Mr. Chevillon's
house on Sunday evening, 15th ult., and
the murder of his slave Mary, have con
fessed their guilt and disclosed the whole
plan of the dreadful crime. There were
three brothers named Delisle and a man na
med Jean Adam engaged in it. They con
spired to rob the house six days before, and
if necessary murder the negress, and carried
the plan into execution at the time ap
pointed, when it was known the family
would be at church, and there would be
no one in the house but the negress. Tho
house being on a corner, one engaged he,
in conversation at the street door, whilst
the others got over the fence on the other
side, into the yard. They had broken
open the armoir, and were carrying off the
money, upwards of a thousand dollars,
when she, hearing the noise, rushed in,
was instantly grappled by one of the vil
liens, who held her whilst another cut
her throat with a razor with which they
had provided themselves, and left her dead
on the floor. They all returned to Ad
ams' room, some distance off ) and
there divided the money. One of the
Delisles, named Louis, who assisted at the
murder has not been arrested yet.

SILVER'S MINERAL PAINTS
The wonder of the age, nature's own produc
tions. These Paints differ from all others in the
market; they are not clays; they require little Oil,
flow easily, anti cover with a heavier body than
white lead. They neither crack nor peel, and dry
readily, making a E
n NAMEI. or STONE.
Cowns—We have seven different colors, viz
three Browns, two Chocolates, Black tad Yellow,
and by contbiliatichi make tvery variety and shade
of color:
Bonv.—These Paints are superibr in body (or
tbvtring property) to any yet discovered, and
pound for pound will cover double the surface of
whltb tend, Are, er other metallic Paitlts.
ibliit.—To Iron they furnish a protec
tiott rust, for they contain no metal, *ldt•tt
like ',Witte lead acts destructively on the iron; in
fact this Paint makes iron doubly valuable fur
building purposes.
llittex. WC/lOC—They give to house walls e.
much heavier coating than other paints, and jf
sanding is required, nothing holds so firmly or .
finishes so well with it.

Slurs using this extraordinary Mineral an we
prepare it for them, will be proof against the ac
tion of hot suns worms and salt water.
CAPITALISTS and .131:m0 ots are • invited to
make strict scrutiny into the merits of thesii .
Paints. They will find a very great reduction
might be made in the cost of painting. These
Paints are purely mineral; all clays and other
impurities urn washed out in preparing them for
the market. They cost but half the price of white
loud, and the same quantity will cover twice th e '
surface, and last six times as long, which in fact
reduces the price to one-twelfth. Climate has no
effect Ott this Paint, and is equally valuable in the
cold Calming or our sunny Florida.
Dinntritirts.—Use Linseed Oil, mix as thick
as you can; and use ag Other paints. These Palma
need hitt little dryer, and Ihr printing and second
coating in all hottsbwbrk they will be found far
cheaper and inure durable than lead.
