The failure Of the Susquehanna County
Bank is announced. The fact is su(licien.
:ly suggestive says the Pennsylvania, no
to require much elaboration. Yet how
much disaster must not such a catastrophe
occasion in all of North Pennsylvania, es.
peciaiIy among the farmers and mechanics
Of that fair and fertile region. Everybody
Iecollecls the ruin spread around by the ex-
plosion of the Lewistown bank, and now
we have added to this another example
scarcely less appalling. Are we never to
be sufficiently warned against the evil con-
sequences Of an unrestricted banking sys-
TEN? Are We never to be satisfied by
the repeated warnngings we have received
that legislation which encourages the in
crease of banking capital, and hesiates "a
bout refusing charters to new, and restrict
ing these of old banks, is the fruitful source
Of incOnceiyable disaster!

IN Prince Regents Inlet, and had been
there fast in the ice for four seasons, and
being asked with regard to those on board,
whether they were dead or alive, they re-
piled in the same way that the crews were
not "aseep" (that is, not dead) but were

T'The foreign intelligence by the Eu-

tween Russia and Turkey. The reply OF
Nicholas had not reached Constantnope,
but was expected by the twelfth of Octo-
Der. A large fleet of steamers was collec-
ting tn the harbor of the Golden Horn
Twelve ships of the line, fully eouipped,
were at anchor in the neighborhood of the
Black Sea. A Turkish Army of hun
dred thousand men had been gathered \.
round the capital, and drills and reviews
were IN constant progress. letter states
that before interiDg the territory ofthe Sui,

sured ola welcome, with the liberty ofpro-
ceedIng to any part of the world. A mum.
Der of refugees had been put on board
American vessels and French steamer,
destined, it is said, for Greece.
The report from Widdin is, that Bcm
and some of the other refugees had embra-
ced lsIamsm, while Kossulh and the other
leaders avowed that no inducement could |
make them apostatize. Some of the Pa |
chaIlcs on the borders of Turkey, had man |
llested a disposition to take advantage of |
the trouble with Russia, and revolt. The
English Government had sent a note to IFS
at St Petersburg, couched in
kindly but firm language, announcing de-
to sustain, the Porte. Lord
'aImerston had sent like instructions to the 1
British Minister at Constantnople. and

learned gentleman, who previously had been
elected President, appeared and accepted the ap-
pointment The known ability OF this gentle.
man, Bishop John Johns, his high atiainments
and the success which must attend his efforts
for the improvement Of the students, from the
dignity and mildness for which be is conspicu-
Gus, cannot fail TO attract attention to Inc lnst
tuition. II combines 10 an eminent degree Inc
advantages Of College established on the most
liberal foundation. The Professors are Du ner.
Gus and are all distinguished for learning, aoill-
" and character. The course ofstudy has been
carefully arranged and compfehends every de-
partment of science and literature. The library
and apparatus, chemical and philosophical, are
ample for every scientific end.
The College deserves and must receive lar
ger share OF public patronage Than IL has ENJOY
ed for many years, from The fact that, besides The
additions 10 lis scientific and literary departments
the influence OF religion is once more restored 10
its place in H. This The public has ample ground
10 expect from the well known character OF the
pous gentleman who is al the head OF II. Al
The same time, whatever is sectarian in lis ten
dency will be carefully avoided. The truth OF
being all that The faculty will ann 10 commend
10 The respect and acceptance of students. Less
Than this, SO lar as it may be effected by the &C.
cus!omed exercises of the College Chapel, and by
a course oil lectures on the evidences OF religion,
revealed and natural, could not satisfy the >oicl-
tude of parents and guardians.
That the public mind might be disabused Of an
impression tina; there were any sectarian designs
or that all denominations alike might not avail
themselves Of the advantages Of the College,
without fear of any influence 10 affect the reli-
eious attachments of the students, the Visitors
reafirmed the declaration Of previous meeting
