Encts for ESuni,ites.

Last year the prices OF produce in Ohio were
about as follows: Wheat brough, from 30 to 10
cents, corn l2!, pork $50, and other articles in
proportion. Then there were p banks in the
state, and the people were blessed with some Si2,-
600 coo of paper money. Last winter the char
tiers of thirteen of these banks expired aud they
applied to the Legislature TO have Them renewed,
The wings said, if the application was not grant
ed the people would certainly be ruined, as the
sudden withdrawal of some S70O00O0 of paper
from circulation, through the windngup of these
banks mus, produce sudden scarcity of money,
which would cause prices, already rulnously low,
to fall still lower. But the democrats, believing
these apprchousions Of tho wing to be groundlcss,
suffered the banks to go into liquidation. What
has been the consequence The farmers of Ohio
now get 20 cents bushcl for their wheat, % cts.
for corn, aud 81 hundred for pork This coun-
try will certainly be ruined unless we have more
banks.

Mn Cure fur Chronic DiScases.--Mr Wise,
the baIloonist, in giving an account Of a recent
ascension he made, notices the fact that the action
of the vital organs is augmented by the dmnu-

tensions are always followed by a Noacous appe-
lite and thirst--lIe is of opinion that lnvads la
boring under chronic diseases would derive great
benefit from an occasional ascension with skill

constructing balloon for inya!ids, and should it
be brought into practical operation, he feels Sc

extemporancous discourse which was declared by
many who head it, TO be one of the most eloquent,
pcrSpicuous, and drgumcntatlye sermons they had
ever listened to.--Aitcr the clergyman arrived
nome, it was noticed that his mind was again
wandering, and proper medical treatment was re-
sorted to and he has since in a great measure re-
covered He states that be has not the slightest
recollection OF preaching OF the last Sabbath, or
even being at church; SO that he must have deli
vcrcd an eloquent aud lucid discourse while in a
state of suspended intellectual action, phcuomc-
non certainly Of u curious and unusual character.
The only discrepancies observed IN the services OF
the day were two: after reading the command.
mcnts the clergyman repeated the sixth, and
when giving out the second hymn, he gave out
the same one which had been Just previously sung.

was employed by Captain Julien, r. N,
to clean out and deepen well that was
on his premises. lie had been engaged
in this employment for some days, going
down and returning out OF the well, with
out experiencing any Inconvenience, till the
afternoon OF yesterday, when, as he was
descending, he was observed to lose hold
of the rope and fall to the bottom. Mr..
Julien's youngest son observing him thus
to fall, Immediately gave the alarm, and
without moments delay or considera-

fate. The alarm was then given to the
