A Gieain of Sunshine.

We are disposed TO give credit to whom credit
is due, and therefore express qualification on
learning that few Of the more INDECENT and needy
bill-holders Of the Susquehanna county Bank are
likely, at some time not very remote, to realize
payment for its notes held by them. An assign
ment, we learn from reliable source, of certain
real estate in Tioga county, ~ Y, valued at sew
era thousand dollars, has been made by the Di
rectors to c. L. WARD and HENRY DRINKER, to Sc
cure the depositors and the class Of bilhoders to
whom we have referred, including widows infirm
persons and young ladies', who were bona .fde
holders OF its notes at the time Of the failure
We commend the decision on the part of the Di-
rectors, who seem disposed to do all in their pow
er to afford relief to the suffering. and hope the
public will do the same. If all cannot be paid
relieve the most needy, or those whose circumstan.
ces render their losses most painful. We hope no
one who really comes within the pale prescribed
above, will sacrifice much in endeavoring to get
rid of the notes Of this institution and especially un
til opportunity has been given to render the prop
erty assigned for their relief, available
And in thus applauding this laudable decision
the part of the Directors, perhaps we ought, in
justice, to say word in commentator of Mr..
WARD. with whom, we understand, the idea orig
mated, and who has done much already to secure
the property in question and render it applicable
His course thus far has been very kind, generous
and praiseworihy Montrose Democrat.

E,,,porsaut "Reminiscences.

I. will be recollected that speech made by
Senator Dix, of New York, some time since, con
tanned an extract from the Diary Of John Quincy
Adams proving that in 1920, the members of MIR.
Monroe's cabinet unanimously agreed that Con-
gress had the power prohibit slavery in the ter
Iitories MIR. Calhoun was member of that cab
met but when this reminiscence was adduCed he
denied its accuracy. This denial gave rise 10 a
bitter controversy, particularly between Mr.. Ben
ton and Mr.. Calhoun; and this controversy has
induced Chas. F. Adams TO give more elaborate
extracts from his fathers diary. These extracts
are deeply interesting and conclusive. They show,
Ist, That the power of Congress over slavery in
the territories was fully discussed in cabinet coun-
Gil. ID. That while some OF the members of the
cabinet doubted whether the prohibition could be
enforced after the territory became State, not
one of them expressed doubt in regard to the au-
thority of Congress to prohibit slavery in the ter
ritory. Sd. That the doctrine maintained at
the north, was then acquiesced in by the south
for no fault was found with either Messrs. Monroe,
Calhoun, Crawford or WHIT, (all southern men) for
having admitted the right Of Congress TO prohibit
slavery in the territories.

The Hon Horace Mann, who presided at the
late National School Convention in Philadelphia,
closed his Valedictory addresswilh the following
admonitory passages:
five fulfil the duties We have assumed, this
meeting will prove one ,fthe most important mee-
tlngs ever held in this country. If we fail in our
respective spheres of acuon, to fulfil those duties,
this meeting will be the ridicule and shame OF US
all. BY itself, it is small movement; but we
make it the first in series that shall move the
whole country. 1t begins here upon the margin
of the sea but we can expand it until it shall
cover the whole continent However Insignificant
in Itself, it is great by its possibilities. To the
eye of the superficial observer. beginnings are al
ways unimportant; but whoever understands the
great law of causes and effect, knows that without
the feeble beginnings, tle grandest results never
could have been evolved
He who now visits the North western part of
the State of New York to see one of the wonders
Of the word--,he Falls Of Niagara-may see also
wonder of art not unworthy to be compared with
this wonder of nature. He may see vast iron

poised high up in the serene air, hundreds of feet
above the maddened waters below. How was
this ponderous structure stretched from abutment
to abutment across the raging food1 How was
it made strong TO bear the tread of an army,
or the momentum of The rushing steam cart Its
beginning was simple but its termination is grand
A boys playthng, a kite was first sent into the
air; to this kite was attached sken thread, TO
the thread cord, to the cord a rope, and to the
rope cable. When the toy fell upon the opposite
side, the slken thread drew over the cord and the
cord the rope, and the cable, and the cable, one
after another, great bundles. or fascia, of iron
wire, and these being arranged side by side and
layer upon layer, now constitute bridge of such
mssiveness and cohesion, that the mighty Genius
Of the Cataract would spend his strength upon it
in vain.
Thus, my friends, may great results be educed
from small beginnings. Let this first meeting of
The National Association OF the friends of Educa-
ton be like the safe and successful sending OF an
arial messenger across the abyss of Ignorance,

Cholera i'm Philadelphia.

From an official statement of the Board of
Health il appears that the first cases Of this dis
ease were officially reported on the 30;h of May,
and the last on the 9Th of August, period of
eighty one days. During this time, 2l4I cases
and 747 deaths by cholera were reported, the
highest number being on the 18th OF July--S4 ca
ses and 81 deaths, Ofihe 344 patients admitted
into The ten hospitals, which were temporarily es-
tablished in the city and districts of Philadelphia,
276 were whites. viz: l8 males 90 females; and
&c were blacks, viz: SO males and 33 .emales.-
Among them were reporied 81 Americans and l06
foreigners. AS far as tie reports showed, there
was an excess of patients of incorporate habits Of
nearly so per cent, and almost all these cases
proved fatal. or these S44 cases, Ill or about
80 per cent were fatal The total ratio Of de aihs
during the prevalence of the epidemic, was one in
about every nine bundled. The whole number
of deaths from diseases of The bowels, other than
Cholera. during the season, was l049, being
" three times greater tlan in 1916.

Look Out.
Wing majority,

We learn that stranger last week attempted TO
pass in Milford, Penn, one dollar bill purportng
to be on the Farmers Bank of Vantage. He was
told that this Bank had not'yet issued any bills.
aud was permitted TO go on his way without any
measures being taken TO make him explain how he
became possessed OF the fraudulent note. This
circumstance renders il probable that fraud up
on the public has been matured, and is now being
ndusiriousy carried into effect north and west OF
us. Let the people be on their guard. The Far
mers' Bank of Vantage is not yet in operation and
of course has not issued the FIRST dolar.--Susex

Yankee Sailors Exhibited.

A Yankee vessel, called HE Alert. being lately
off The Tartary coast sent boats crew ashore
for wood; but as they did NOT return, the captain
sent second and a third boat, neither of which
came back. While the vessel was cruizing about
in the vicinity two weeks later, the boats re-
turned, and the sailors reported that on going a
shore they had been seized by the natives and ex-
hibiled through the country as curosities until the
exhibitors were tired, when they were set free,
and returned. They were treated with the utmost
kindness.

On Thursday last, Mr.. Clay arrived in Balti-
more, and notwithstanding his desire to avoid
public reception, he was compelled to make
speech.
He said that he always felt at home when in
Maryland, the State being the birth place of hi,
better half. He felt afraid that the Importance of
his return to the Public Councils of the country
over rated by his friends. He still felt his
old devotion 10 the service of the public, but at
the same time. he fell the weight of time upon
him, which units him for the active service of his
earlier DAYS.
ILe then alluded to the slavery question, and
said there unnecessary agitation upon the
SUBJECT Ihe eUa could aeUer eaist tn California
ana yea0 Merico. The cool climate, the business
OF the country the habits and pursuits Of the peo-
pie forbid IT,
He then spoke of the importance of the Union,
and SAID that contrasted with it, the slavery ques-
ton sank into nothing Under all circumstances,
he would stand by the Union.
He considered that question could be of suf.
lclent importance To cause dissolution, and let
the storm come from what quarter it may, he should
defend the Union right or wrong.
II 1t should be dissolved, our country would re-
quire no historian. Her history would be written
from that OF Greece Men would arise and play
the part of Philip and Aexander There would
be foreign alliances, and foreign and domestic
Wars until every trace Of liberty be lost in this
part of the world. @st
Mr.. Clay became quite animated He spoke
with feeling and powerful effect. He thanked the
people for The afectionate kindness thew had al
was shown him, and should ever remember it.
He closed amid tremendous and reiterated ap-
plause.
On Saturday, he arrived in Washington, and,
it is needless 10 say, was enthusiastically wei
coined by host of friends.
