The establishment Of d National Bank

The establishment of National Bank,
to rule the currency, has never been with
us theory that it might be dangerous to
put in practice. We have seen, in the
mother country, such an institution, fraught
with the highest benefits to the commune
ty, and inducing, in great measure, and
tending 10 preserve, by skilfnl manage
ment, that wealth for which it is so ia
mous.-N Y. Wing.
The glorious smother country" let's
follow her example by all means--adoPt
her national bank, with her state clergy,
hereditary nobility, and all the glittering
adjuncts of royalty, for all these induce,
and tend to preserve the wealth for which
she is so famous, and the squalid poverty,
for which she is equally celebrated, full
as much as a national bank. Aye, give
us national bank "to rule the currency
and the people-we ought to follow the

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

Baking is the least advantageous OF
all modes of cookery, because meat
thus dressed, loses about one third Of
its weight, and the nourishing juices are,
in great measure, dried up.
Horses with white legs and feet, are
less valuable than those which have
not, because their hoofs are more brit
tie.
1t is advisable to pour boiling watel
into the tea pot, before the tea is made
that the vessel peing previously warm
may abstract less heat from the mix
ture, and thus admit more powerful
action.
Charcoal is the best dentifrice, be
cause of its antiseptic properties, ant
its destroying the smell of various sub
stances; thus rendering tia ready sweet
ner Of the breath.
Horce racing is less cruel than j
generally imagined, because the hors'
enters into the spirit of the race a
thoroughly as does his rider.

STOCKS.

The stock bubble, that refined invention
Of modern rascality, which gives to bro
kers and shavers the power of making as
much money as they please from the un-
suspecting public, is, or rather seems to
be, approaching the point at hich it must
burst. The stocks are one Of those
schemes of associated wealth, which put il
in the power of few, if they chose to
combine, to command the money market,
and consequently to control the business
transactions of every merchant in the
community. The New York Wing ofthe
10Th ult, says, "stocks to-day are at We.
rylow ebb Delaware and Hudson left of
at62l, falling 8 per cent. since yesterday
Harlem has declined almost as much; anc
the Farmers Trust, which has maintained
its posision so ong, is going, going. All
stocks are in the same way"
The mysteries of stocks, and the STOCK
market must soon be brought to light, ant
pass away.--Southerner.

MORE PANIC.

The Baltimore Republican Of the 9th
inst, contains the following.
The "United States Gazette" of yester-
day says, that the banks in the city Of
Philadelphia and districts, have unani-
mously declared that it is inexpedient to
send delegates TO the adjourned meeting
at New York, of the Bank Convention, on
the 18th of this month. This is only We
rifying, what for some time has been ru
mored as the course, which Biddle and the
satellites that revolve around him, would
ultimately revolve upon. More panic anc

REVEALS.
REVIVAL IN BOSTON.

We are still permitted to record the con-
tinuance OF the effectual working of the
Holy Spirit, in the Baptist congregations
of Boston. The interest still remains un-
abated every y here, and in some of the
congregations has but just come into full
operation. Indeed, it has an additional
impulse, every where, by the great access
ion Of new Iaborers in the fed. The de-
nomination has, in fact, become materially
enlarged by the recent conversions; for a
great proportion Of them nave occurred in
persons who have not been accustomed
regularly to attend worship at all, or at
least not with our denomination. In look
ing over our religious assemblies, a new
generation seems TO have suddenly started
up-a new set Of strange faces occupy
our seats. 1t is remarkable as we'll as
gratifying, to see how soon those who
have lived scoffers and aloof from the
means Of grace, when led to hear the
sound Of the gospel, are brought to ack-
nowledgc the truth, and to submit to the
terms Of reconciliation. 1t should be a
solemn thought to those who pride them
selves on their external observance of re-
fgion, that such persons accept Of the Sa-
vior, while they remain unmoved and IN
reconciIed Surely this is evidence enough
that there is such thing as becoming Cos
pel-hardened; surely here is demonstra-
lion OF the scripture, that the last shall
be first and the first last The expert
ence OF the past ought to teach them that
there is no safety in delay-that there is
no hope Of becoming more inclined to
humble themselves at the foot of the cross
by procraStinating, and thus cherishing
their natural obstinacy and they should
take alarm, lest when this precious and
inviting season shall have passed, their
last summer shall be ended and they not
saved.
cd We have still to rejoice that there is
yet no just liability to the charge Of un-
due excitement-of revival got up by
human machinery. No means have been
resorted TO except PRAYER, the social meet
ing, the stated ordinances Of the gospel,
and personal conversation. So little in
deed have our movements attracted atten-
ton, that il is but a few weeks since a
prominent member Of a church Of anoth-
er denomination inquired, why it was that
while God seemed TO be visiting cities and
villages on all sides of us, he seemed not
to have come near Boston. There have
been already 247 baptized in three Of the
Baptist churches since the commencement
Of the year, and forty in the others. Al
Charlestown and Chelsea the work is en-.
couraging. and several have been baptiz
ed. Besides this, about 100 have submit
ted to the ordinance Of baptism in the Free
will Baptist and Methodist churches. May
we be watchful. prayerful and faithful in
all things, that the blessed work may long
continue. WGIchmdn.

rose and said he had received and had

which, and signel by a vast number, had

that, in the adjustment Of our difficulties
with Mexico, ian amicable arbitration night
be employed.
The petition also recommend ID earnest
" the propriety Of the establishment Of an
international Congress, or tribunal for the
settlement of the difficulties which might
arise between nations, thus Voidlng the ca
lamities Of war. The petitioners had Tor
long time held this object in view. and
had addressed several Legislative bodies on
the subject; and MIR. G. understood that
the respectable Massachusetts Legislature
had given counienance and encourage
ment TO the object
Mr.. G. was glad to find BY the morning
papers that one of the objects OF these Pc
tilioners, namely, that the reference OF our
difficulties with Mexico to an arbitration
had been lately accomplished. With re-
spect TO the other end greater and more
comprehensive object Of the petitioners, all

whichsuggested such,a measure, ana mus
