The DEATH OF JUICE HoPKINsoN--The
Honorable Joseph Hopkinson. Judge of the
District Court Of the United States for the
Eastern District Of Pennsylvania. departed
hour. He was the son Of the Hon. Francis
Hopkinson, a distinguished patriot during the
revolutionary struggle-and inherited from
his sire, his ,%irtues, genius and patriotism.
Judge II. succeeded the Hon. Richard Pc
tiers on the bench. and for several wears rep
resented the CITY Of Philadelphia in the Con-
gress of the United States. He was not
ONLY dis.i"~"iShnd for his wit and eloquence.
but for his ability as a writer aud his eff
cheney as a Judge.
He was courteous and gentlemanly in
an eminent degree. His well known pro-
duction of "Hal Columbia" is fraught with
the true fire of patriotism, and had he new
er written another line, would have borne
his name with honor, to posteritv. He was
a member Of a number of the learned socie.
ties, and only a short time before his death
he visited several of our neighbouring towns,
and lectured TO large and delighted audiences.
He was one Of the pail bearers, at the fu-
neral OF the late lamented philanthropist,
John Vaughan, which took place yesterday
fortnight. The deeease of this eminent citi.
zen, will be deeply Hamented by a large cir
Gle OF friends and relatives.-phil. Inq., 18th

"Oh, the devil a hap'orth in particular"
said Patrick, "barrin" that | want to see the

"Well, then, can't you come to our De-

His friend instructed Patrick where the
meeting was to be held, and told him TO be
there positively at seven o'clock.
"No insinuarions, you spalpeen" said Pa
trick. 'Do you doubt me courage"
His friend assured him he did not, and
they parted.
Patrick went to his luggage, got out his
~favorite black-thorn stick, which he brought
over the waters with him, and pressing on it
to take the warp out of it. he said

out his hand for Patrick's black-thorn.

The P~icayune of the 18th inst, referring
to the late Message of the Governor of Lou
isiana, says:
He slams it into the banks in right good
earnest. pronounces the long suspension ille-
gaia violation Of solemn contracts, and de-
moralizing in its effects on society. Their
charters, he says, are virtually forfeited.
and he earnestly calls on thes Legislature to
enforce an immediate resumption. The ar
gumeni, that it would not be polite on the
part of our city banks to pay their liabilities
in specie till a general resumption takes place
throughout the Union, he deems fallacious.
and adduces the Ease of the New York and
Boston banks in proof of his position. He
further shows from the published statements
Of the banks that since the suspension their
financial condition. instead Of improving, has
been retrograding-in other words, that while
their abilities nave decreased their liabilities
have increased land winds up on thus subject
