A Notice Gene,ally

The following notice was handed US a
few days since, by or evil genius, Wm.
Carroll, runner for the Valley Bank
ALL NOTES FOR DISCOUNT, boil,
new aud for renewal must be deposited
in the Bank by the. day preceding that on
which they are to be offered.
On all notes eoJ renewal the eurtail and
discount must be paid in adpance.
This regulation has been adopted by
both the Valley and Central Banks. The
reasonableness and property of it are sug
gestej at a glance lie; every subscriber
or reader, who is in the habit Of dealing
With the Banks. place this notice in con
spieuous place, that he may be reminded
OF the necessity Of prompt attention, in
time. to his Bank matters
In this connection we Will state, as there
seems to be a general breaking up Of Banks
IN some OF the States, that the Banks OF
this place never have been in a more safe
and prosperous condition. The Valley
Bank of this place is known tn. State over
as one of the best conducted, under the
old system, in the Common wealth. The
officers are well adaptedto their business
and enjoy universal confidence.
The Central Bank, about which false
malicious rumors have been circulated
stands as high. il not higher, than any
Bank OF the kind in the State. Its specie
basis has nei been better for six months
1t is conducted with marked prudence ant
wisdom, and enjoysshe confidence Of thi.
entire community. The general remark
is, that if there is any lauIl in the manage
ment OF this Bank, il is on The side of eau
ten. The false, unkind and wicked re.
ports which seem to be IN circulation have
certainly originated in no good MOTIVE
We ONLY wish we had what is due Us fol
subscriptions, advertising and job work
or even the bali of it, in Contra! Bank
notes. We would just as soon have them
as the gold. Those OF our subscribers who
may have these notes, ard desire TO get
rid OF them, will confer favor BY for
warding them TO this office. Or we have
several pieces of good property--real
estate, &c which we will exchange for
these notes on par terms.

About $4,000 worth of wool, lin which
department the fire orIginatcdl was con-
sumed. The loss is estimated at about
$4,000. Col. Morgan lost great deal of
his furniture by it being pitched out
One Of the prisoners, Helms. from Mason
county, who had four years 10 serve. hav-
ing been sent to the PenitentiarY OH a
charge Of burglary, made his escape. The

GA communication appeared in the
Messenger of the 9th. portion of which
is re. published in the Spectator. relative
to the speech Of Mr.. Massie, of Lexington.
which we think does injustice 10 that gen.
tleman. When Mr.. NJ. used the express
sion ''damnablc isms, Including the cause
OF Temperance, the attention Of Mr.. Mas
sic was called TO it, after he had finished
his speech. by the writer Of this paragraph.
After having stated to him the connection
in which he had placed the Temperance
cause, he instantly diselaimed any such
meaning, and endeavored TO get the floor
frequently, without success, to set himself
right. He had reference entirely to the
Maine Lquo, Law as connected with
New York politics, and so explained him
self Hope, the writer in the Messen-
gel. we know would not Intentionally mis-
take any man. but in this instance he has
done SO unwittingly. There is no one more
decidedly opposed to the Maine Liquor
Law than the writer of this article, but at
the same time, we think the Temperance
cause, when cor, fined TO its legitimate
sphere, is one Of the first o. moral reform
ers. The Sons oil Temperance we believe
are doing good, in their operation upon
