William 6. Hunt.

This individual it seems has not yet had his tri-
al. On Monday evening of las, week he was
brought back from Philadelphia, and again lodged
in Our county jail. We are very frequently asked
wha, all this means-the delay in the trial-ihe
extraordinary efforts made to procure signatures
to peutions praying for his pardon before he is
uied-the taking him to Philadelphia for trial,
keeping him there week al hotel, and then re-
turning him to Doylestown jail--the confident pre-
diciions of interested persons that he will be suf
lered to slip through the meshes Ct the law-and
The many rumors connected with the proceedings
in his case which it is improper here to refer TO.
The public mind is becoming excited on this sub
ject, and is not likely be settled by the course
things are taking. We must confess that we do
not understand it.-Bucks County LnteLligeacer.

No LegislatiOu,

The last news from Washington is that there
will be no legislaton-no attention 10 business
no discharge Of positive public duty until the sla
very question is settled. The people of the north
and south will have something TO say about it short
ly. They have no idea of stopping the wheels Of
government, whatever Congress may think of do
ing, because single isolated, though vexatious
subject, stands in their way. We should be hap
py 10 see it settled, but it cannot be done in day.
Meantime the sun and moon are to stand still!
If this plan is determined upon, the people will
require Congress to adjourn. They must not hold
on TO the cog wheels at eight dollars day.

Bankrupacy ia Batavia.

We find in Hunts Merchants Magazine,
some valuable extracts from letter from Java,
written by an intelligent spondenr, mer-
chan, of Boston. The following passage re-
laies to the condition of bankrupt in iha, ISL
aud, from which it appears that the laws on
that subject are little more stringent than those
of Massachusetts, He says:
To be bankrup, here, is some hat differ
ent affair from what it is in the u. S,ates-
Immediately on becoming bankrupt, the names
Of The parties are placarded about Town, and in
The Exchange, as if prima tacie infamous
The books are then examined by The public Of
fcer for that purpose. If the estate does not
pay 60 per cent, and the bankrupt can be
proved to have done business after he knew
that fact. he is put into prison, as criminal
Gr number of years. and declared 'aloosi,
which is infamous or without character. AZ
ter this The 'aIoost person is indeed excommu-
nica,ed. His word is not TO be taken; he is
no, allowed 10 be a witness, even on oath, and
if a man trusts him, he does il at his own risk !;
he has no legal remedy against him. On the
other hand, if man takes his books to the pub
lie officer, and declares that he has given all he
has, and it does not appear that he has been
doing business, knowing he was bankrupt,
and after strict investigation there are no sus-
picious Circumstances, his creditors must sign
his papers. Thus the creditor is protected
wi'hou, expressing the debtor, the rogue is dis
tngushed from The honest and person is
obliged, by terrible penalty, to know The state
of his affairs, and, when once embarrassed, TO
refrain from specializing to retrieve himself
This law came into operation in May, l84s,
and it was not long before i, caught omehing

Very Singular.

Some forty years since the family Of DR..
Denormandie, formerly Of AuIeborough, Bucks
county, Pa, received paper written in lam
guage they did not understand. Il was thought
nothing of except as matter OF curiosity, and
remained among The family papers until lately,
when it happened 10 be seen by some person
who translated it, and behold! it proved 10 be a
will leaving 10 The family an immense estate.
Dr. Denormandie left three sons and perhaps
other children. Two Of his sons went 10 Ken
lucky about 1918, where one Of them died the
other two, it is believed, are still living They
were worthy men, and many friends will re-
joice to learn that the long neglected bequest
may yet be realized
