eminent writer, as "the best youth's Magazine

An entire number might be filled with the
commendatory notices of the press. The Family
Gazette says : "No person who cures a butto„
for his child's welfitre, can spend a dollar more
profitably than in nubscribing for the Play

But wo prefer to let the Magazine tell its own
story. Those parents who have any choice
about what their children should read, should
subscribe for it. It' it does not sustain
after a trial, no recommendation of others
would be of any benefit.

This question was settled once before, and
a man whose clinkered, polluted heart un

END OF VOLUME XXI.
With this number, cloS'es Volume XXI
of the Journal. Twenty-one years of bat
tle against the principles of. Locofoco ism ;
twenty-ono years in ardont support of
the principles of human freedom, of truth
and justice, have passed, and the Journal
is about entering upon its XXII4 volume,
with brighter prospects, a clearer sky, and
inore cheering signs than hnve ever before
marked its progress. The great princi
ples for which we now cont"nd are the
same that were battled for twenty years
ago. Our enemy, the same. Our runks
have swollen from a hardy few to a glori
ous army. And still there is room. Let
every soldier in the gr .at and good cause
of Liberty & Uniun, bring in recruit
Let their names be entered on the roll—out
list for 1857—and all will be right. We
ask the cn operation of all friends of free
dom. Aid in the great cause, and do so,
by procuring 1000 new subscribers.
LECOMPT.—This modern Scrogqs has
been, it scents, at length removed from the
poiition lic.has so long held to the disgrace
of the bench and, as it is reported, James
0 'Harrison of Lexington, Ky , is appoin•
ted in his place. We are rejoiced that ire
are able to thank Mr. Pier, for one act
of his administration. The change !nay
be for the better; it can't be for the worse.
Mr. Pierce in his selection appears, how
ever, to have acted upon a principle early
adopted in his administration, viz t to ap
point to office in all cases where it is pos
sible, men who at the same time that they
are his own political friends, have been re
jected by the people. Mr Ilarrison tuns
defeated for Congress by A. K, Marshall.
•I'his . defeot commended him to executive
favor.
LANCASTER BANK.—The Express pub
lishes a full and interesting report of the
proceedings of the stockholders, which
took place in Lancaster, on Saturday last.
The result of this meeting looks more fa
vorable towards the resuscitation of the
bank than anything that has yet transpired.
The Express says that, up to the hour of
going to press, 3100 shores of new stock
had been subscribed, and the good work
was still going on when the editor left the
hank. He has no doubt that the commit
toe appointed, will secure the amount. in a
very short time—probably before the next
meeting, which would be that day two
weeks.
Within the last two weeks the assets of
the Bank have absoroed $233.000 of itr
circulation, leaving, after deducting $33,-
000 locked up in the County Batik on good
collateral, notes destroyed, etc., but little
over $400,000 actual circulation. He has
no doubt that if all parties do their duty,
the bank will be placed on a solid founda-
tion.
ger A Roman Catholic considers no
oath administered on a Protedant Bible,
binding. Probably this accounts for the
indifference with which an official of this
persuasion treats the crime of perjury and
mail robbery.
Mr' Mark the friendship between the
Globe and American. Fighting each oth.

Bosh for Locofocoism. Strange anomaly.
