TOwanda Bank.

Look out Don't take ats Notes Some
weeks ago it was reported that the Towanda
Bank had failed, and every body refused to re-
ceive its notes. After day or two of an in
ierval, Mr.. Matthew t. Miller advertised shat
he would redeem them at one per cent. He did
so. Of course an arrangement had been made
by the bank to that effect. The bank placed
five or six thousand dollars in his hands Tor the
purpose But mark the pernicious effect TINS
device had upon the community! Finding sne
Towanda Bank in apparently such good credlt
every body took its notes, and hence on the
faith of five or six thousand dollars, perhaps
quarter of million of these good for nothing
promises were forced into circulation. Who
suffers? Why the people-ior the notes are
now at a discount of thirty per cent! Who
gains! Why the bank and the brokers. The
former exchange an immense amount of their
irredeemable paper, for hard cash. and the latter
are making a harvest of the distress of the
credulous holders. Just such game was
plaved by the Commercial Bank of Millington.
NJ. T. Miller had several thousand dollars placed
in his hands-he advertised and redeemed It's
notes while the money lasted-the bank got
into credit in consequence---lorced vast a
mount of its paper on the community---bursted
up---its officers ray away---and the people as
usual were left the sufferers by the neiarous
transaction. These things should be inquired
into Has a broker a moral, OF legal right,
to thus aid corporation TO defraud the public,
by getting It's paper into credit which Its
worlhlessness does not Observation-Disclosures

The skeleton OF female, as was mentioned
a few days ago, had been found in the woods
in Salem county, N. J. We now learn, through
the Woodbury. Constitution, that an individual
residing in the neighborhood of the place where
the bonesSwere found has been arrested, under
she following suspicious circumstance
It'appears that short time since female
while on her way to some relatives, stopped at
e!house of colored person in the vicinity
with the intention of remaining over night. She
was however induced by the person arrested,
TO accompany him 10 the house of his mother
for that purpose, taking with her cloak, which
was loaned her to be returned next morning.
The cloak7wa not returned for several days,
which gexcited some remarks, when it was
brought back by the brother of the person ar
rested and thrown down, he saying, there's
your cloak, suppose you're satisfied. On
inquiry it was ascertained that the young wo-
man had not been at the house of the mother;
and she has not since been heard Of These
circumstances lead strongly to the belief that
after suffering the most horrible treatment, she
was murdered and inferred as above described,

Cut By Machinery, and warranted superior TO
any heretofore manufactured
GEORGE F. NESBITT, Tonline building,
corner of Wall and Water streets, New-York k,
respectfully informs the Printers of the United
States, that he has now in full operation his ma
chine for cutting Wood Types, which being an
entire nev invention, is warranted to cut Types,
both plain and ornamental, far superior to any
heretofore exhibited TO the public; and in proof
of the assertion, informs the public that he has
obtained Diplomas and Medals from both the A.
mercan and Mechanics Institutes of the City
Of New York, at their Fairs of 836, 1888, and
1899, as the books Of the Institute will show.
George F. Nesbit. would particularly invite
the attention of Printers TO the fact, that through
the politeness of the proprietors of the Liver
pool and Havre line of packets, he has been ia
vored with the latest French and English spe-
cimens, that many of the new styles In them
are very handsome, and have been got up by
him; they were exhibited by him at the Me-
chanic's Fair in this city, now just closed and
pronounced by the Committee of Printers, ap-
pointed TO examine Types and Specimens, to
be superior to any Wood Types ever before ex-
hbited, and having decided advantage over
large Metal Types.
George F. Nesbit., would also inform the
Printers of the United States, that he is ready
to cut Types on Wood of any size, from lines
Plea, upward, from any of yhe patterns of small
or Types contained in the extensive specimen
of Messrs G. Bruce Il Co, or from any new
pattern that can be suggested.
IL George F. Nesbitt is desirous that Prin-
ters, and those becoming Agents, should be ac-
quainted with the fact, that his prices are much
reduced from those heretofore charged by other
manufactures; that he allows his Agents thirty
per cent. commission; that his terms are sir
months or ten per cent. discount for cash
Agents are wanted for the following cities,
viz: Charleston, Albany, Detroit, Rochester,
and Buffalo
~ B. Printers of Newspapers, who will
publish the above for six times, within three
months from this date, and will send me copy
of their paper, shall be entitled to SO in Types;
and should the Types not prove superior to any
ever before manufactured, they can be returned,
and the money will be paid in place of them
