Mr.. Solms, of Moyamensing Bank notoriety, and
who labors under such bad memory when at
Harrisburg has returned home, and there is some
talk of re-opening the Bank again This institution
is in the hands of set of persons intimately con-
nected with the courts and with court pckings. A
brother of Judge Ks the President Judge of the
Common Pleas, who was clerk in It, and by the
aid of his brothers patronage in the way of audits

paid into Court Such at least is the common i'm
preston. AT present should consider it most I'M

as deserving of no public countenance If any
doubt can exist on this point, let the report OF the
Sharswood Committee of last winter be examined.
