BANK OF ST.. CLAIR.-The Smiths, Of New.
ark, have issued the following card in relation to
the exploded bank of st. Clair:
TO THE PUBLIC-A CARD.
The undersigned have been compelled to stop
payment for the present. OF the causes which
have produced this result are ignorant, as they
are connected with and have grown out o { another
branch of our business at Cleveland, and the Bank
of st. Clair at Detroit We are yet unadvised
whether or not the bank has suspended. Owing
to these circumstances and our ignorance of the
extent and nature of the causes of our dffc uties,
we have felt it our duty to close doors for the
present, with the assurance to the community that
every thing within our means and power shall be
done. in good faith to do justice to our creditors
May 8, 1916. j. o. g. H. SMITH.
The CadIz Sentinel says:
"We see it stated in several OF our exchanges,
that there are rumors in crcuat ioE that the Bank
of Sandusky and the Bank Of Norwalk are In an
extremely doubtful condition, by reason of their
connection with the Smiths and the Red Dog Bank
Of ST. Clair. We hope these rumors may turn out
groundless. but at the same time we advise our
readers to keep little of the paper on hand. No
one knows when bank iniquiiy begins or where 1t
ends.'

Mn. Polk IN lRELANp.--The people
of Ireland do not all wait for Daniel
O'Connell to speak before they form an
opinion of men or measures. The
"Dublin Nation" says: "James K. Polk
has sworn to observe the Constitution
of America, and has spoken his lnaugu-
raj Address to the States. 1t was pla-
cid, profound and determined. Such a
document has not been issued by le-
gitimate King these two centuries. 1t
was worthy ofausurper--mos st worthy
of a freely chosen magistrate of free
men. it expresses the sense of res
possibility justly felt by the President,
the youngest ever chosen by the States.
1t iustifies the federal systems; it pres
ses the importance Of State solvency
and exults in the absence of State debt;
declares for free trade as a rule, and
protection as an exception (or incident)
and then it deals with Territorial ac-
QUESTION; with Texas and Oregon. His
declaration for Oregon is equally clear.
He is a man offew words, but those OF
strong kind"

Quo STocKs AND CREpIr.--The ra,
pid decline which is now taking place
in the prices Of Ohio Stocks, and the
consequent depreciation in the credit
of the State, in the estimation Of dis.
tant circles, will puzzle greatly tie in,
genuity of the reader 10 find any cause
for it other than the now too-generally y
notorious fact, that the financial man.
agement of the State is again in the
control of the same party and the same
individuals, who, few years since, by
their bungling schemes and wretched
policy, forced us upon the very verge
ofrepudiation, and only saved our cred
it by the most extravagant prodigaIity
hawking our bonds about the street
like pedlars of old clothes, and only es-
Gaping the epithet of ''Repudiator,"
by gambling away about hall a million.
The tax payers of Ohio should not
suffer their attention to be lured away
from the condition Of their State credit
and the depreciation in the prices of
their Stocks, by the exultations which
come from interested sources of "New
Banks" and plenty of paper money.
There is an intimate connection be-
tween the declining of State credit and
the rising of new banks.

neither the boast nor the inference
is calculated to produce very pacific
retorts. AS to the Oregon itself, that
appears to be the last matter regarded
in the controversy. 1t is the manner,
not the matter in dispute, that is often
sive, and sneers are provoked neither
pleasant nor complimentary. Let us
hope that the storm will blow over; a
hostile conflict between the two coun-
tries woulG inAct deadly injuries on
both. England would probably suffer
most; for at the outset her manufactur-
ing population would become paupers
by the cotton trade being cut off; and
the commerce OF America would be
literally swept from the ocean,

THE PRINTER.--There is no class Of
men who take the world as coolly as the
prInter--its ups and downs--ins and
outs--and, in fact, every thing that's
connected witha a passage through this
habitable globe. He appears TO be a
person who is enoowed with calm, ,cool,
and collected disposition. If fortune
showers upon him her kindly smiles,
and prosperity accompanies his wand
ering footsteps, it's well; if again he is
kicked and buffeted about in the rude
and rough gales of adversely, "with no
eye to pity or no arm to save" or help,
it's well. His spirits are ever buoyant
his heart ever light. He treads the
rose and thornstrewed paths Of life with
the resignation ofa christian, and hard
ly heaves sigh at past enjoyments or
present suf1erings. At one period we
see him in the height Of glory. He has
by industry and perseverance achieved
for himscIf-alone, and unaided by
wealth and individual inhuence-an
emlnence and esteem among his TEL
low-m which is destined to put him
above present or future want. He
knows it, he feels it, and is grateful-his
heart swells with gratitude towards his
fellow-ceatures, and he feels proud
proud that his labors are not in vain.
We see him doing good battle in the
cause of justice and equal rights, exert
ing with his utmost ability and energy
the rights of the weak against the strong;
the poor mans guide; pointing out to
HIM the road to fortune and 10 fame,
cheering the darksome hours of his life,
and renewing him with hope, and that
hope to be realized with better and
brighter future. And again, threaten
ing the vile and vicious with exposure;
upholding and counlenancicg the moral
part of community; warning the virtu-
Gus of the fangs of the seducer; and to
all benevolent and philanthropic objects
he extends a generous and wholesome
arm. No matter where duty calls, he
is ever willing to raise his voice or
arm, in the cabinet or field.

Sir GEORGE SIMPsoN.-A paragraph
is published in many of our journals,
said to have been copied from Hall
fax paper, announcing that Sir George
Simpson, who came out in the steamer
Caledonia, had been appointed Govern
or of Oregon. This is not all probable.
Sir George has been for many years
governor Of the Hudson Bay company
and in that capacity frequently makes
trip to England and returns early in
the spring to avail himself OF express
canoes which leave Montreal on the
breaking up of the rivers. Two of the
canoes left Lachine about the first OF
this month and we believe the whole
have left by this time. Sir George will
be accompanied by the Rev. Mr.. Barn
ley, Wesleyan missionary, who has
been some years in the Hudson's Bay
territory, but has been recently in Eng
land on visit to his friends and on bu-
siness connected with the mission. We
can readily account for the report in
reference TO the appointment Of Sir
George Simpson as governoroi Oregon.
He is know in this country, in England,
and in Oregon,as "Governor Simpson"
He was probably entered in the pas
senger list as bound to "Oregon," and
at this juncture it required no great
stretch of fancy to make him newly
appointed govern or.-M Y. Com.

The most safe, certa aud speedy remedy discored
 "A combination of similar remedies will produce certain speedy and consider bale effect than equivalent dose of any single one."-DR. FoRDYcE
 | M NOTWITHSTANDING the numerous com l pounds under the name of specifies, which are daily offered 10 the public for the sanction and pat ronage, yet there has been long wanted preparation that would insure to he afflicted safe, convenient, speedy and efiectua cure. The object of the pres ent one, containing ingredients of the most valuable description known to the medical world, is To ble all those who may stand in need o II to obtain medicine unsurpassed by any oiher ever offered to lbe public.
 One recommendation this preparation enjoys all others is it's neat portable form put up in pots the mode in which it may be taken being both plea sant and convenient. It possesses what may be called specific power in most constitutions, espe- caly when administered the early and acute form of the disease, the cure generally accomplished in a very short period, and has oftentmes proved eica cious when other remedies had been tried in van. The unfortunate patient possesses, in this, sure remedy; he has no occasion to make his public, and without any application to medical man, with restriction ln diet, confinement, finds himself cured efectutly, in few days, at tring expense, and saving of feelings to sensitive person hav- ing thus in his reach cheap, portable, and efhca- cous remedy. IL is in the form of paste, is taste less, and does not impair the digestion. Pamphlets accompanying the medicine, without charge, contaIn- ng full and ample directions.
 Among all the persons who have taken this medicine, there has been not single complaint oi nausea or any unpleasant feeling symptom, and all the III et- ect arising from the employment of the common bal sam is entirely avoided by this new and valuable medicine. A preparation, therefore, compounded ike the present one, of materials possessing in their individual capacities such highly sensitive powers, must prove the desideratum long sought for in the medical world, in the cure of those diseases, and from its great and general success, and incacuable benefits experienced from it's use, command large and extensive circulation.
