G5-The Quebec Gazette gives the particu-
lars of a most distressing disaster which oc-
CURED in that city on the l7th.-A large por-
tion of the mountain called Cape Diamond,
with the wall from the Governors garden to
the base ofthe citadel, gave way, and buried
under the mass of stone and earth, eight hou-
ses on Champlain street, with their inmates.
Fory-eigh persons were dug out of the ru-
ms, twenty-six of whom were dead, and six
not found.
Tho Montreal Herald mentions the de-
struction of number of RATS at the Cedar ra-
pids about fifty miles above that place, in con-
sequence of a severe gale, by which about so
lives Were lost.

From lie Richmond Whig.
NEXT GOVERNOR.

AS the people have not willed it, that the
Richmond Junto should have the pleasure of
disposing of the Gubernatorial office, ask to
bring to the consideration Of the Legislature
the name of VIM. NJ. PEYToN, of Roanoke.
Whilst do not admit, that mere sectional
considerations should contTcu the appoint
inent ofimportant functionaries, yet think,
a neglected region, When 1t presents an ind-
Wdual OF equal qualifications, has superior
claims. The west has not had her due pro-
portion of honors-State or Federal. This
may have been owing to the fact, that there
were not so many wise and experienced
statesmen west Of the mountains as east.
Mr.. Peyton is a western man, but he is a
Yirginian all over, and every inch of him.
He possesses fine genius and fine business
capacities, and would take a noble pride in
devoting all the energies of his soul to the
prosperity and happiness of the Old Domin-
ion. Whilst would disparage the claims
of no other, whose name has been mentioned
he. in all the requisites of good Govern
or, will be found inferior to none.

LUST FOR OFFICE.

The American Sentinel very justly re-
marks, sit is not pleasant to reflect upon the
tervid lust for Office which for some time past
has broken out upon the common notice OF
the country. We say nothing now of the
uncomfortable appearance of things when
merely five loaves and two fishes, are scram-
bled for by five thousand voraciously hun
cry people. What we think Of with sorrow
is the evidence before us that such mutitudes
can he found willing to trust for livelihood
TO the precarious chances of political fortune,
instead of entering manfully upon those pur-
suits in life which are open to all, and which
rarely fail to recompense persevering industry
literally. If one could marshal into BIRDS
eye view that army of ofiice-seekers and ex-
pectants who have latterly solicited the gov
eminent patronage; if we could SEQ too, the
play otpassion, the fret and tear Of conscience,
the corrosion of envy, fear, disappointment,
we should say this crowd might be better,
more comfortably, more proftably, more hon
orably employed, some in the worksho ps,
some on the farms, some in the useful arts and
professions; and each might be an ndepen-
dent man, earning bread, earning honor, un-
harmed and undisturbed by political caprice
and party mutation.
The truth is the age Of old-tashioned, toll
some industry is passing away. Multitudes
among us think it beneath them to follow
some useful trade or calling, and earn a liv-
ing by dint of homely labor. They wish to
be gentlemen, and how can they be mechan-
les and the like? They wish to figure in So
ciety, and how can they endure the dust and
soil of their fathers workshop? We speak
generally, and with no more reference to one
political party than the other. 1t is disease
of the times loudly calling for remedy and
rebuke.
And after all this hungering and 'thirsting
after Office, it is poor business, miserable
drudgery; especially where the doctrine pre-
walls, that Office is the reward of partizanship,
and where of course the incumbent can reck-
on upon only short term of employment 1t
cannot but be source of many anxieties,
fears, disappointments, to such man to re-
fleet that he has put himself, his family and
his fortune, into the hands of others instead O!
retaining them in his own keeping; and more
over, that the evil day of removal may come
when he has incapacitated himself by the
habits of his station, from entering with vigor
and success upon other avocations."

THE Ogfaleation an tie Bank of Georgia.
In the last Savannah Georgian we find the
following account of the rumored defalcation
in the Bank of Georgia, a; Macon:
'The amount of deficit at the branch Bank
at Macon, as reported by Mr.. Porter, the
Cashier of the Bank Of the State of Georgia,
who was sent there by the board of the princi-
pal bank here, is, as we understand, about
100000. Nath'l. Barker, cashier; Isaac
Seymour, president, and Levi Eckley, II. X.
Garter and F.. Sims, directors, are the persons
implicated. These frauds upon the institu-
ton have been committed under the obliga-
tons of an cath taken by the president and
cashier of that Office on the Sd April ult after
a certificate signed, saying Tie cash lad on that
dry been counted, and acas all found correct
We further understand that the directors Of
the principal bank have taken energetic mea-
sures to prosecute and bring to justice all the
parties implicated; and the efficient character
Of the security bonds and other sources of in
demnity, induce the hope that the pecuniaIy
loss to the bank will not DO very heavy. But
what an awful wreck of character with regard
to the parties involved! We believe, how
ever, that there will be publication Of par
tlculars upon this subject in due time.

1J~The fermcnt in the cabbage State"
as the Petersburg intelligencer facetiously
calls South Carolina, in regard to the propo-
sition to establish a new United States Bank,
and the threat of the Calhoun faction that
they will resist the measure by Military force,
affords another striking instance of the incon-
sistency and recklessness which mark the
course of their wayward leader and champi-
on. 1t is only few years since Mr.. Cal
houn was boasting, as loudly as swaggoring
camp-follower Of forty pillaged fields, of the
support he had given to an Institution, which
he would now have us believe, he regards
with holy horror. Hear what he said, on
this subject, in the Senate Of the United States,
as late as 1884:
81 might say with truth, that the Bank
owes as much to me as to any other indyid-
ual in tho country; and might even add,
that, Ind itnct beenJor my c6orts, 1t ,oouM not
haUe been charfercd.
81 must content myself with saying, that
having been on the political stage without in
terruption from that day to this-having been
an attentive observer of the question of Cur
| rency throughout the whole period--that the
Bank has been an indispensable aren't in the

stored Specie payments, but has given US q

tremes of the country, than was anticipated

Is it not sirange-passing strdnge-that
such man should have influence in any en-
lightened community?

GREAT ROBBERY OF THE FRED
ER!CK COUNTY BANK.

The last mails from Frederick bring us the
distressing intelligence that the Frederick
County Bank, located in Frederick CITY. was
entered some time betweenSaturday evening
and Monday morning, and robbed Of the fol.
lowing funds, as reported, after hasty exam
ination:
In Gold SlO.O49 "a
In notes and bills of other Banks
and Checks S,73S l6
In notes of the Frederick County
Bank IA. 961 m
State per cent Bonds 6OOO OO
State 6 per cent Certificates $4,000 90
per cent Sterling Bonds 1922 90
Making an aggregate Of $l35.976 "a
The entrance to the bank and vaults was
effected by false keys, and the proceedings of
the robbers seem to have been conducted in
the most confident and deliberate manner.
There was large amount of silver IN the
Bank, which was UNTOUCHED. There was no
watch to the Bank, and'no other means of Sc
surity adopted, but what was afforded by
locks. 1t is said that the key of one of tho
doors of the Bank was found Yesterday in a
creek about 100 yards from the building,
and dark lantern was found upon bridge
in the vicinity.
Inc Directors, at meeting yesterday, re-
solved to offer the largereward of $4,000 for
the recovery of the money and detection of
the thieves, or $4,000 for the recovery of the
money, or in proportion for whatever part of
the whole sum may be recovered.
The Capital of the Frederick County Bank
is $4,000, and it did large business and
was in high credit.
The following suggestion in relation to the
notes of the Frederick County Bank, in the
hands Of BONG jide holders, is made by the
President OF one of our Banks:
Mr.. EDlToR :-As the whole community
are deeply interested in the detection of the
robbery ofthe Frederick CITY Bank, would
suggest, as means tending to this end, that
the newspapers generally throughout the
country, recommend TO the bona fde holders
of the notes ofthat Bank, to give immediate
notice to the institution of the amounts sever
ally held by them. The aggregate amount
