From The Baltimore chronicle.
It's actually alarming to observe with
what a confident tone and brazen front the
spirit of anarchy puts forth its extravagant
pretension. Ten years ago the man or the
newspaper who should have advised the
abrogation of the chartered rights of cor
poration or the demolition of banking cd
ifice for no better reason than that the be-
hests of party had not been obeyed in their
establishment would have been denounced
from one end of the continent to the other
as disorganlzer and mobocrat: How
changed is now the scene! The paper at
the Seat of Government honorcd with the
countenance and official patronage of the
Executive and speaking invariably his sen.
timents does not hesitate openly to counsel
that the charter ofthe U. S. Bank, recently
granted with all the solemnities of the high
est legislative act shall be annuled and ex-
Plunged" by the next Legislature of Penn
sylyania. And upon what ground? Not
because the act ofthe Legislature un-
constitutional and therefore void or voldable.
Oh, no but because forsooth in the judg-
ment of a particular party or the head, Of a
party the powers granted by that charter
are not vested rights, but g vested wrongs" !"
1t is upon such dictm as this that the
official paper proposed to overturn an act
of incorporation. Was the like ever before
heard Of in land Of laws?

Sunday School and Tract Depositories.
A NUMBER Of individuals of this town
and ncighborhood have paid between 800
and $500 for Sunday school books and
religious Tracts, and have thus established
these Depositories which are intended to be
perpetual.
These books and tracts are sold at cost
and charges, aoitheut any profit, to all who
will buy, and the money reinvcsted in books
of the same kind, and thus the supply is al
ways kept up. The books are sold at the
same prices that they are sold at the Deposi.
tories by retail in New York and Phladel.
phia.
These books and tracts inculcate that
form of truth and doctrine in which chris.
tians are agreed generally; and have moth
ing sectarian in them; and thus are calcula-
ted to supply the wants of christians ofevery
evangelical denomination.
The Depositories arc at the Book Store
and are kept and attended to free of charge
or expense.

where the people claim to be citizens of Ohio.
A warrant Was thereupon taken out against the

and he was committed to prison. Great excite
