There can he Do qestion that the fiscal af-
fairs of the county se strangely embarrass-
ed. Instead Of iienlly relations, and that
facility of opentpns which arises from mutual
confidence, there is dstrust, timidity, and
close and p,rtnl system of operations IN
which each iniiYdualilstitution seeks only its
own defence ,msecuny. Credit is sustain
ed, not throushlhe natural channel OF accom-
modation,, but jy men series of expedients.
Emergencies Se not mt with promptness, or
avoided with tciEty, bul bought OF by means
which not onlyiolate Law, but which must re-
suit in an extGded and esperate ruin. The
even current,f affairs il turned or impeced
bv artificial distractions The Pnblc have
waited long nd patiently under severe and
continued prssure, struggling against what
has seemed % them aninexplicable sembar-
rassment. The accumulation of specie,
which shoul, give strengt and stability to the.
operations othe banks, hs failed in its effect.
Instead of becoming the hsis Of credit, it has,
by the operaions which have been founded
upon it, disturbed the while balance OF the
system. Ibuses have ben controlled, and
it's directionpointed out byan agent who had
no right to reddle witkit. A new party has
interyened ktween the tw, great classes of
debtors andhe creditors. The Government
has yirtuallr altered the rats OF interest and
exchanges, aaced specie at premium, dlmi-
nished loan, contracted operations, and modi-
fled the currency. 1t resolved to make
specie circuaion, and now, prevent the natu-
raj effects Of circulation, 10 locks it up, or
transports it where it is na wanted. The
precious metas, and their representatives too,
are scarcer tan ever. Tie former are Sc
cure in the chtch of the Government, (where
report says, the Government intends that
thew shall remain y the later have returned
to those wlo made them In the mean
time credit, nd the large chss who, by credit
add to the gaeral stock of national wealth,
are the suffers. The cords stretched to its
utmost tenstn, usury thrives, and the fall of
stocks denoes an approaching deportation
in other gret representatives of value
Bear Smy.-The story hat an about
IN relate. is me which has excited great
deal of feelig in the vicinity where it hppen-
ed, and is VII worth conspicuous plce in
your paper. The facts as haned to ne are
these :-OnFriday the 30th ay of Setem-
ber last, nes the close of the d,y, a httl lad,
about 8 yeas old, by the name Of Gorge
Parks, startd in pursuit of tie cows. He
made his wa along the path though iece
woods, of abut half a mile In length. On
reaching tie opposite side O. the weds,
he found lis cattle had stated towrds
home.
Tbev consisted of a very gentle old ow
and nu1nbe of young cattle. His moher
told him precious to his starting, to keep Mar
the old cow. as she would conduct him on |
STRAIGHT couse home. This he was taretulto |
obey: but sortly after he had entred tie
woods on hiway home, walking by he size
of the old CIV, he hearl a cracking in tie
bushes, and N looking round, what shuld he
see but lar,e bear making towards hn with
all the speeand fury that those ferocios am
mails are possessed of. At this criticaberioG
strange as may seen, the boy possessed
presence ofmmd enough to make use of his
only alternatye, which vas to Jump aside OF
the cows bsk, and learing forward he ought
her bv the lsrns, and in this perilous STATION
rode througIthe woods. The bear seerd to
envy him hiselevated situation, and fam pmd
have pulled linn down. The cattle ranand
roared-the boy screaned-but all didnot
terrify the har; ever and anon she wuld
come along ide Of our sanent rider, growing
and snarlingand striking with her paws-nd
would havet him II pieces, but tor he

in the rear, ad as she would turn to give thQ
