UaBANA BANK, No. 2!-The almost incre-
dible fact IS announced that the old ,fnanciers
of the Urbanl Bank are about establishing
another swindling concern at that place,
under Kelley's new law. Of course, if they
desire to do so, and comply, with the meagre
requistions of the law, no hand can stay
their proceedings Wester" Empire.
Is there on redress? Must the people be
swindlcd over and over again, and by the
same set of gorged cormorants? Will the
people not rise in their might and sweep
every vestgc of these swindling shops from
the face of the land, leaving nothing but the
blaekened statute book to show that they had
been? We shall see-Cadis Seminal.

GREAT SALE OF CATTLE-The entire
herd of short horned cattle of E. P. Prentice,
Esq, of Albany, was sold in that city on
Wednesday. The cows were sold from
$25 to 500: heilers in proportion. There
was great deal of interest attending the
sale, which shows that the spirit for agricul-
ture is wide awake in this state.

LET US HEAR DANIEL WEBsTER.-The
Hon. Daniel Webster, no longer ago than
1882: used the following plain and emphatic
language in relation to the worthless strips
of paper issued by the banks:
"Of all the contrivances for cheating the
aboring class of mankind, none have been
more effectual than that which deludes them
with paper money. This is the most efectual
of intentions to .fertilise the rich mans field
by the sueat of the poor mans brow. Ordi-
nary tyranny, oppression, excessive taxation,
these bear lightly on the happiness of the
mass of the community compared with frau
dulent currencies, and the robberes COM
mitted by deprecated paper Our own his
tory has recorded for our instruction, enough
and more than enough of the demoralizing
tondancy, and the inolerable oppression on
the vrluous and woll-dispossd, Of degraded
paper currency, authorized by law and in any
way countenanced by government" On a
more recent occasion he declared-"I pro-
fess to be bullionist, in the usual and ac-
cepted sense of the word am for specie
basis for our circulation, and for specie as
part of tho crculation, so far as it may be
practicable and oxpadient. am for giving

The "YIELDrNG PoL1cY.'--The New

" In the meantime, the peace party should
bear in mind, when they write on this SUBJ

sure the accomplishment of their beau ideal
of national felicity. Not an inch of terrific

LEGAL ADVERTISING have taken oc-
casion, for our own satisfaction, to make a
few enquiries of Judge Wood, of the Su-
preme Court, and Judge Bowen, of this cir
cult, upon the subject of legal advertising.
Chancery notices are required by law to
be published forty days, g. TO cover this time
sir weekly publications are given. This
number of publications, however, can be gi-
ven in less than forty days. A chancery no
tice to be legal must have its first insertion
at least forty days previous to the holding of
court, and be continued for five consecutive
publications thereafter.
Where notice is required to be publish
ed four weeks'' it must receive five conse-
cutive insertions to constitute the publica-
tion notice intended by the law. In many
instances " four weeks" notice receives but
four insertions this is insufficient, as it gives
but tweniy-one days. notice and not twenty
eight as is required by the four weeks
prescribed by the law
