The BANK OF THE UNIoN.-sBy reference to our
advertising columns it will be perceived that
this institution has come to an untimely end
| Though possessing but little knowledge Of its
basis or affairs, we have always regarded 1t as
being to say the least better founded than others
of more recent date now existing in this city, or
reported abroad to exist here--for in sober earn
estness we know nothing Of the localities even OF
one 1.-THE of them We have long known Mr..
Gallaher WE'LL and our confidence in his bank
has rested solely upon our estimate Of him-and
that of all who know him--as fair, honest and
honorable man.
We are requested to say that the report that
the house of Selden, Withers s. Co. yesterday
held thirty thousand dollars of the notes of the
Bank Of the Union is incorrect; that they have
never held one-fourth of that amount, and now
have less than tao hundred dollars Of them!
We are also requested to state that there were
no other owners or projectors of the Bank of the
Union, directly or indirectly, than Mr.. R. H.
Gallaher himself, and that every dollar of his
property and means will be devoted, through his
trustees to the liquidation of his debts.
Of the extent of the liabilities of this bank we
know nothing; but that they who are called
upon to sustain either permanent or temporary
loss should feel indignant at system which sub
jects them to such injuries, is not to be regarded
with wonder. We are inclined to hope, however,
that the loss to note holders in this city will not
prove very heavy. Let our citizens now go
calmly and deliberately to work, and resolve upon
such wholesome revision of our laws and usages
as will protect us from recurrence of such
failures.
WYMAN.--This popular professor ofmagic blanche
continues to attract large audiences, composed of
the beauty and fashion of our city, to the Odd
Fellows Hall, to witness his wonderful expert
ments, amusing ventriloquism, sc. For this
evening he promises variety of beautiful feats
and we advise everybody to 60 and see them.
nag We were nforme ed this morning by physi-
clan of the Infrmary that Mr.. Baldwin is no
worse than yesterday, and that the amputation
would probably be performed to-day at - o'clock.
Our friend Mercury, Of the Baltimore Sun, is in
error in saying that it is "Young Baldwin" 1t
is Mr.. Thomas Baldwin, of Bladensburg who has
been for years the proprietor of Hotel there.
He has son, young gentleman who resides in
the same county.
nay DR.. Casadavant, surgeon dentist, exhibited
to us yesterday at his rooms, in Lane & fuckers
building, Pennsylvania avenue, very beautiful
set of upper teeth, made on the atmospheric
pressure principle. They have been worn seven
months by lady, to whom they have given entire
satisfaction. 1t is indeed an admirable art that
can SO we'll repair the loss of organs SO important
to health, comfort, and beauty.

travelling Candidates.

The Philadelphia Sun says: What nonsense the
partizan papers are writing about the speeches
delivered by Scott and Pierce They have a right,
and it is their duty to address their fellow citi-
Gems whenever called upon. General Scott in his
recent official tour, has responded to addresses
and answered interrogatories he will probably
return home by way of the lakes, Buffalo, New
York, and Philadelphia, and will still continue
to talk. Where is the harm in this Mr.. Pierce
does the same thing. He met and greeted at
Concord those who were proceeding to the Demo
cratic mass meeting at Hillsboro' and on their re-
turn he again met them; was entertained by the
Democracy of Concord; exchanged with them
political sentiments, talked over political pros
poets, drank political toasts and concocted polit
cal schemes. He makes excursions to college
commandments, and public regattas, horticul-
tural meetings and cattle shows, and it is an
nounced by the Democratic papers as a special
attraction, that Frank Pierce, their candidate for
the President, is to be there. In all this there is
nothing wrong, on the contrary, it is proper and
republican
The Attempt to Assassinate the Hon. L.
Q. Levin.
We deeply regret this occurrence We rejoice
that Mr.. Levin SO fortunately escaped, and can
not but deeply condemn the act We want to see
no revival Of bitter animosities between our ma
tive and adopted citizens, and no pretext for it.
It appears that on Wednesday evening Mr..
Levin, in public speech at a meeting in Moya-
mensing, Philadelphia, was severe in his stric-
lures upon certain encyclical letter of the Pope;
and that considerable excitement in the meeting
grew out of it. A gentleman present, who
protested to be q Roman Catholic, at Mr.. Levin's
invitation, went up on the stand and replied in a
manly, liberal, and graceful manner to Mr.. L.
But when the meeting was over, and Mr.. Levin
was on his way home in a carriage with friend
man seized hold of the door of the carriage,
and snapped his revolver three times. The third
time it went off, the ball passing through the
carriage within few inches of Mr.. Levins head
The assassin, probably believing he had done the
work, joined three or four comrades, with whom
he escaped.
