Men OF genius are not always quick in their
comprehension of other mems ideas, they trust
more to their own unaided powers of mind for
the understanding of subject than to the eluci-

may explain. For this reason, many men Of

The following from the Journal Of the

in which the affairs of the bank were ma.
naged. Shadrach Penn is the editor of
the Louisville Advertiser, the pet paper Of
the government:
"The Commonwealth bank was mere
partlzan bank. With it, the first requi-
site to obtaining discount was being an
active supporter Of the administration.
Even the Jackson politicians and editof
OF the West were sure of accommodation
there, though they might not be able to
get credit at home.
"a few weeks ago, n judgement was OBJ
tanned in the circuit court of this city, on a
joint note for $4,000, payable to the Com

Shadrach Penn, jr., r. M, Johnson, L. p.

Its surface is computed TO be equal to
l99,000,000 Of British square miles,
Three fourths are water, and one-fourth
land. In circumference it is:--
Round the poles ~ 24,930 miles.
Round the equator 25,200 do.

The principal oceans are, the Atlantic,
Pacific, Indian and Southern. The great
