"•On the 10th of February, Mr.

The next day, when Mr. M'Clung re

too great for feeble human natuie; he

should be forfeited by the B. & 0. R. R.
Co. to Washington ,county in case their

This provision, we have understood, was
introduced in a spirit of jest and trifling.
The rail road, it is well known, has bean
extended to Cumberlacd on the Virginia
side of the Potomac, , and not through
Washington county. A suit has been
brought in thei court of this county, in the
'name of the State, for the use of Washing.

recovery of this million of dollars. A'
pro forma disposition of the case, we under

be taken to the court of Appeals for the de

involves. Should the claimants succeed,
which we cannot believe,it will cap the cli

law on which their claim is founded.

persisted in 'lining Mr. Buchanan, against

The law provides that no man shall be lib

THE BANKS ANb. TUE RESUMPTION

resumption yet on the part of our
Beaks, but we are assured it is coming;
and that most of the Banks of the city and
county of philadelphia will resume specie
payments either in tho course of the pros.
ent or early next week. The sooner the
better, as it seems to us, as any considera-
ble delay' under existing circumstances,
would rather decrease public confidence
than otherwise, and hente render resume.
lion more difficult. Indeed, had the Banks
resumed on Monday last, much of the ex
eitement would have subsided by this time

Township Elections.
The elections which were held in the !merel
boroughs and townships of the county on Friday
last, have resulted, so for as we have heard, in
the success of correct principles, and the choice
of men firm in their attachment to Harrison De
mocracy. Our ticket in this borough, it will be
seen, is elected, save one Constable. As to that
one, we are sorry that enough were found so far
to forget the respect they owe to themselves and
those with whom they acted in political fife—to
disregard that political consistency which every
man should possess, as to be lead away by the
appeals of a man's helpmate—to yield to any
professions or promises, and to do violence to
their political opinions. We coal play the, este

neighborly feeling, returned good for evil. We
believe in the precepts of the divine law, and if it
was, out of respect for them, that such a course
was pursued, we are silent. Was it so 1 Were

Resumption in Philadelphia.
At a meeting of delegates from the Banks of
the city arid county of Philadelphia hold on
Thursday evening last, the following resolution
was offered :
Reached, That on and after to-morrow,
the 18th inst. the Banks' of the city and
county of Philadelphia, assenting to this
resolution, will receive on deposite, and in
payment of debt, specie or the notes of spa.
cis paying Banks. Also, that they will
pay out at their counter specie or their own
notes exclusively, to all persons entitled to
demand the same. '
The above was adopted—the following Banks
voting in the affirmathe t—Philadelphia, Com.
mercial, North Americo, Farmers' end Mechan
ics, Southwark, Northern Liberties, Western,
Kensington; Germantown.
The other Banke present, having accepted the
Relief Law, declined voting, stating that they
are making arrangocoonta for speedy resumption.

Dear Sir:-- . The bill for the rettiovarlef the
feat of justice of Columbia county, frem Danville
to Bloomsburg, was consulared in .tbe House to
day. on seeond reading, and negatived.
The humbug bill of Mr. Hahn. having for its
avowed object the protection of the •Poor" from
brokers and shaven', was negatived on the guts
tion of transcribing for third reading. So absurd
and ridiculous was this bill that even a large '
number of his loco foco brethren, who never
yeller an oportunity, calculated to delude end
gull the people, to escape, refumed to vote for it.
The bill providing for the payment of thtrit's—
mastic creditor of the commonwealth, was con
sidered in committee of the whole, and Wednes•
day next assigned for its consideration on second
reading.
In the Senate, the bill prohibiting any further
issue of the relief notes anthorized by the Act of
4th May last, wai Busily passed.
Fug - dive Slaves.
On the 11th inst. in the House of Representa.
tivee, Mr. Sreveys offered • resolution to repeal
all laws relative to fugitive slaves. This step, it
as said, has been taken in consequence of the late
decision of the Supreme Court.

purposes, finally passed that body.

The Harrisburg Correspondent of the
Lancaster Examiner and Herald says that
the penalty contained in the 6th section of
the Bank Bill, requiring that 'execution, or
process in the nature of an execution shall
be stayed upon all. judgments which may
be hereafter obtained,' wherein any bank
shall be plaintiff, if it fail or refuse to com
ply with the provisions of the first section
of the act,—can be easily evaded. 'After
the Banks have obtained judginent, they
Irave only to sell that judgment to some one
who is not a Director of the Bank, and the
penalty , threatened by this section falls
harmless at their feet.' it is passing
strange that the assembled wisdom of the
Commonwealth can not mature a bill whose
provisions can be neither misconstrued Her
evaded.
TREAstrnT NoTEs.—A large amount of
Treasury notes fell due in New York on
Monday, the ,whole of which were dishon
ored. This caused some excitement a
mongst the holders, and they were glad to
sell them at 1 per coot. discount.
