This i the season for diseases among chill
drcn; and we may add, the season for NOR
tally among them; for probably more OF
tender ages die in August than any month
of the year. The prevalence OF disease l.
generally attributed TO the use of fruits. and
we admit that they have some agency III the
case. Yet fruits arc n freely used in July
and September. ms in August, without accom-
panimcnt of so much sickness; a fact indicat-
inc that some other causes are also in opera
ton. We believe that one Of these causes
is a frequent and rapid change of tcmpcra-
turc: another. the free use of those King of
Tcrrors. caomcl and lccchcs. But here is Il
medical question, and we shall have the
Facs,ty about our ears. We reply that the
Faculfg are also divided upon the question.
and that the contcnIing parties will do any
thing TO yanquish each other, excepting to
take their own medicines. With all their
indi,crctons, with their utmost rashncss. the
sons of Esculapius have not exhibited that
proof OF insanity.
Our theory is that the immediate Cause OF
the bowel complaints to which children are
80 much subject i'll this month, Is an obstruc-
ton OF the skin, preventing the discharge OF
the inscnsiblc pcrspiralion. hilc tlc SKIN

digestive organs is not very easy, excepting

these organs must suffer; and ii the inscn,l-
pie pcrspiration be arrested, they are immc-
d!atcly and violently affected. In a healthy

The next question is. what produces TIN

A vague notion appears TO be entertained
by many that paper money banking Is the
chief cause of wealth i'll the United States
As rational would ii be TO attribute the wealth
of Great Britain to her excise system. Both
are mere systems Of taxation the one for the
benefit Of Government, the other for the ben
eft of corporations.
The laws which regulate the production of
wealth are distinct from those that regulate lis
distribution and its acquisition. Particular
individuals, we admit, may be enriched by
the operations of paper money banking
but then they are enriched by impoverishing
Others.
Communities become af1uent through indus
try combined with economy, and from that IN
dustry being made productive through a mi
mute division of labor and an extensive system
of exchanges. A good banking system would,
we admit, by facilitating commercial exchanges
and greatly to the wealth of the nation; but
our banking system, as Mccullough of Edin-
burgh has Justly said, SIS the worst in the
world" and has diminished the wealth of the
nation in the following among other ways -
lst. In converting into spectators many
men who otherwise would have been produ-
GERS.
3D. In causing the standard Of comfort to
be higher than the circumstance, OF the country
warrant, thus promoting extravaganza among
all classes.
Sd. In leading us into many abortive
enterprises, both public and private. The
railroads of Illinois are examples Of the for
mer; every mans own experience VII supply
A, ~f IL,
4th In causing an artificial distribution Of
credit, taking it from the plodding farmer, the
Iaborious mechanic and careful merchant, anc
bestowino ii on wild spectators in land, stock
and merchandise.
5th In causing eternal nuciuation in prices
such huctuation as converts commerce into
mere gambling, and makes success in any enter
prise, mercantile, manufacturing or agncultu
raj, depend far more on good luck than OH IN
dustry, or skill.
9th. In depriving multiiudes of men OF en-
ployment, as is done by every great bant
revulton.
7lh. In derangng all the natural relation
of land labor and capital nothing now belnt
left to the natural laws of trade, but ever,
thing being controlled by little cliques of banl
directors
Sth If we never had paper money bank
the wealth of the country would have beer
twice as great as it il. Many individuals, VI
know. have been enriched by the euda sys
tenn. by wars which have impoverished thcl
compalriots by piracies on the high seas, AM
by other forms of injustice.-We a'e very Ia

the tccming and inviting regions he may
leave behind. Sill, with these natural OBJ
stuclcs between. we cannot but imagine that
the world must assume new face before the
American wagons make plain the road to
the Columbia, they have done to the Ohio.
In the mean time, the long line of coast in
yitcs emigration from the over-peoplcd shores

therefore, are to be the future owners o! Ore

How The Country PrO>prrs WNho's
4 Bank.

I'm the DAYS Of the United States Bank We
used To hear much about the lrregulariy OF
the exchanges, the want Of specie, and the
general depression of business created by these
two difficulties And when the Democrats
were endeavorng to RI the country OF the
fnanciI monster, no other sound 50 contn-
uay grated the earsas the declaration OF the mn
possibility of carry ngon the business OF the peo-
pie without national institution 10 regulate
the exchanges" and give us a sound cgrren-
cv." These were standing arguments IN favor
of bank, and they were the great levers by
which the public opinion was 10 be moved TO
repudiate the Democratic policy, and give the
Government into the hands OF tie W mgs.
How often, then, have we heard the complaint
that without national bank the exchanges
would be so irregular and the balances of trade
so decidedly against us, that all the specie
which could be had, would be sent to foreign
countries Now witness the result View
the falsitv of those Wing predictions The
bank has been dead-irreirIevably dead-ior
more than two years and trade and business
have learned how to regulate themselves, as tie
democrats all along commended they would, as
soon as I, c bank should be put ont OF the way
and they could have a far field. More than
twenty millions of dollars IN specie arrived
in this country between the first of January
and the middle of May: while two per cent.
discount. according TO the New ork Courier
and Enquirer, the leading bank paper IN the
L ion. has been the greatest difference q
exchanges between New York and New
Orleans This is the effect of Democratic
policy What can the poor Wings say &c
il, No wonder that National Bank has be-
come an "obsoete idea a high tariff fol
..protection" must soon meet the same fate.
