SCROFULA.

1t has been remarked by eminent men. that in
the varied catalogue of diseases to which man is
liable, there is scarcely one of such importance
and such interest as Scrofuls, whether we look TO
the obscurity of its origin, its Insidious progress,
the number and variety of organs that it attacks,
or its remarkable incurabiii,y and extensive fatality
Scrofuia has baff1ed the skill of the most eminen,
physicians in this country and Europe. But there
is an antidote for this disease in "Dr. Guysott's

Bank Failure News.

The Cleveland papers give us some
items; though m seems to be in some
of them. The Owego Bank, New York,
is said to be still good. The failure was
predicated on Dwight's Indebtedness to it.
1t is said that he loves the bank of Owego
$3.50 900. which, should it prove a total
loss, Of which there is no possible chance,
would still leave them 100000 OF their
$500, 900 o fcapital untouched. Mr.. Hew-
lit, one OF the wealthiest citizens OF Owego,
has guaranteed the deposites and has as
sumed the temporary management Of the
bank"
The Buffalo Commercial says the sus.
pension of the Patchin Bank lis under.
stood to have been brought about by large
advances to the Buffalo and New York
City Railroad Company"
The paper also says 1.-THE bills Of the
bank are a%bundantly secured with the
Banking Department, and there is little
doubt that the private fortune of Mr.. Patch
in, which. it is understood, will be devoted
to the object, will protect depositors and
creditors from ultimate loss"
The Plain Dealer gives the following:
BANKS DEAD.
Old Bank of Massilon, Patchin Bank oil
Buffalo. These are so dead as to be be-
yond the hope OF resurrection. The bills
of the Massilon Bank find no sale at any
price, not because they are considered
worthless, but because no one knows how
much they are worth. If Dwight has not
h~ypothecated the bonds of the G.. & P. R.
R. CO., and they still remain as assets.
100000 Of the $35O.OOO in circulation
are provided for, which will make the bills
worth at least fifty tents on the dollar.
That fact will be ascertained tomorrow,
as the r. R. Co. have sent a special agent
to New York to ascertain the condition of
the bonds. The Patchin Bank bills are
worth their face, provided bill holders q
wait the process of law to convert them in
to specie. They are secured by State

BANKS DYING.
The Bank Of Owego, Lewis County
Bank, Pratt Bank ofBuffalo, and the Chau.
tauque County Bank, are reported in a
tainting condition and will probably swoon
soon.
The Erie & Kalamazoo Bank, Michi-
gan, is discredited by all our bankers ex-
cept the Forest City. which continues to
redeem it in Ohio currency. Our money
men think the furry is over, except per
haps one or two New York Banks which

THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF CoNGREs

AND NEWSPAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
1t will be seen by the annexed extract from a
letter of General Washington to David Stewart.
dated New York. l7th March, 1870, that the idea
Of such a paper as | propose TO make the Globe
originated in the mind of the Father of his Coun-
try. He said:
cit is to be lamented that the editors of tie diff
ferent Gazettes in the Union do not more general
iy and more correctly (iustead of .%stuffing their
papers with scurrility and nonsensical declama-
ton, which few would read it they were appraised
of the contents) publish the debates in Congress
on all great national questions. The principles
upon which the difference of opinion arises, as
well as the decisions, would then come fully be-
fore the public. and afford the best data tor its
judgment."-Sparks's Writings of Washington.
