United States Bdak.-Since the late
elect ion in Pennsylvania, the stock Of
the United States Bank has risen two
or three per cent, probably under an
impr ession that the mother bank will
be rechar,ered by the Legislature Of
that State, with authority TO establish
branches in such other States as may
give consent, through their respective
Legislatures. Precisely what is the
chance Of such recharter, we do not
pretend to know. If, however, it is
effected, it must be done in part by
Van Buren, votes, for although in the
Hover House there is Wing majority
of Al, yet in the Senate there is Van
Buren, Majority Of $. We have no
doubt ba, an attempt will be made to
secure a recharter from the State Leg
islature at its approaching session; &
should the bank offer liberal bonus,
as it doubtless will, and can well afford
/ TO, we should not be surprised ifthe ap'

I internal improvements, and her legis-
Ia!ors will probably think this an easy
mode of obtaining ito.

Office Of Chicago, Illinois, amounted
to $459,95s.

A LUCKY MIsTAKE.-It is much to
be regretted that ii the chief city of a
| land proverbal for the chastity of its
daughters, and the chivalry and honor
Of its sons, we should SO frequently
hear of lamentable instances OF incon-
stancy and dereliction Of duty on the
part Of married females, as OF late have
been made known to the community ,
not only by report of the proceedings
in our tribunals Of justice but also,
through other sources not less entitled
to credit. A comparison of the pre-
sent state Of our social character with
its high and lofty attributes would pro-
duce sad augury that we are fast re.
trograding in all those principles and
| features which do credit to our nature
and elevate US far above the rude and
| uncivilized nations of the earth. The
every day occurrences at the police
courts afford the most appalling evi-
dence of the depravity and infamy
which shrouds within every little dis
trict of this large and densely popula
ted city, comprising alike the man
sions Of the afluent and wealthy, and
the more humble tenement Of the indi.
gent and poor. Connubial dissen-
sions have ever had conspicuous
place in the annals Of human misery,
but until within few years past, the
causes in which they originated were
less marked with guilt and demoraliz-
ing proaigacy, than in the majority OF
instances at the present day.
| We are led to these reflections BY a
circumstance that was related to US
yesterday, the particulars Of which are
declared to be strictly and substantial
ly true. "Out Of evil there cometh
good" is an adege that has SO fiequen.
| tly been illustrated as to amount TO
truism and we doubt not oui readers
will agree with US that Notwithstanding
The unhappy nature ofthe following
/ affair, the issue under all the circum-
stances, was more fortunate one than
might have been expected.
