COMMUNICATION.

Mr.. SwooPE Il think if you had noticed
the remarks Of the gentleman who represents
the twenty fifth Senatorial district in the State
Senate,on the billto extend the Charter of the
bank of North America, you would have been
led to the conclusion that there were other
interests that required sbank accommodation ;,
besides the numbering business I refer Won
to the Legislative Record of 23d ult. where
we find that the Senator spoke in high terms
m this bank-it was one of the most accommo
dating institutions of the kind in the State.-
lie had himself, when not Senator, but mere
iy 'shog drirer,'' been accommodated at this
bank to the amount of fifty thousand dollars
confess that, like yourself about the extent
of the numbering business, 1 was sastonished.,
had no idea that sum so large would be re-
quired by single Individual in the ehog busi
ness,' particularly in this State The Senator
knows more about the trade than I do and
presume he iscorrect.
When you next have occasion to say some
thing on the Bank question don't forget the
hog drfUing interest. / would suggest that
you recommend to the Committee on banks TO
report bill for the Charter of ssthe Hog dri
vers bank, to be located somewhere in the
twenty fifth Senatorial District

ATTEMPTS 1T. BUT FAILS.

The editor of the Lewistown sDemocrat, -
makes one of our squibs the text for a long ar
ticle. in which he undertakes to prove that
Sam Houston is opposed to Know Nothing
ism because he said he sswould oppose no lar
making those who profess the Catholic reli-
gion Ineligible to office.' And who told you
Mr. Democrat, that the Know Nothings wan
ted to pass such law? They give ns the
credit here, of being the ssprincipal Instruc-
tor,'' and 'sGrantf High Priest'' of that order,
in this region, and we can assure you that we
believe it would be the darkest day that ever
shadowed the history of Pennsylvania, when
such law should be placed upon her statute
books. Rather than see any religious test in
corporated into the Constitution or laws of
our noble old State, we would be willing to
sacrifice all we hold most dear on earth.
There is wide difference between men yo-
ting for whom they please, for what reasons
they please, and a religious test incorporated
in the laws or Constitution. If we understand
Americanism, it is the determination not to
vote for Roman Catholics, so long as we be-
lievc their Church to be interfering in the poll

control of foreign power, and is antagenis-
tic to republicanism. This, we believe to be
demanded by that great first law-ssself pres
ervation,' but We have yet to hear of any or
ganiZation in this State, calling itself Ameri-
can, that seeks to incorporate a religious test
among our statutes, nor do we believe such to
be the object of the ':Know Nothings,'' in any
portion of the Union. We know that it is the
great 'bug bear which the opponents of Amer
icanism use to frighten the unwarry, but we
have yet to hear any member of that party ad-
vocate such q measure. All they ask is an
extension, or repeal of the Naturalization
laws, and that Americans 1EiH not vote for
those who acknowledge allegiance to a foreign
power.

JAIL DELIVERY.

On Monday night, three prisoners, by the
use of false key, cast of lead which they pro-
cured in some way, succeeded in making their
escape from our County Jail. Having opened
the door, and passed into the yard they very
easily scaled the wall, and left for parts un-
known.
Aaron Hoffman was arrested and imprison-
ed to stand his trial on charge of horse steal
ing. He was arrested in Kittanning. Arm
strong County. Michael Smith, ,s-was commit
ted for trial at the next Sessions on a charge of
obtaining goods on false pretences. He halls
from Allegheny Furnace, Blair County,
Robert Woods, was serving out a sentence of
six months for the larceny of watch For
the arrest of either Hoffman or Smith, and
their return to this County, the Sheriff offers
reward offs 90. For the arrest of either of
them, and his CONTINENT in any prison in the
State, proportionate part of the reward will
be given. For the arrest of Woods, S 90 pro-
rided, the Sheriff says, that he gets his ssposte-
rior arrangement" well kicked

TIE BANK VETO.
with it,

Gov. PoLLoCK's veto of the s'Bank of Potts
| town. seems to be universally sustained and
/ commended by the press of the State. 1t is
to be hoped that the members of the Legisla-
ture will see in this enough to stop them in
their wild career, and cause them to beware
how they violate the wishes of their constitu-
ents and sacrifice the interests Of the Com
monwcalth.
When the veto was read in the House, ii
kicked up terrible 'muss' among the gentle
men with gum-elastic consciences and capa-
cious pockets. Among others, Speaker STRONG
let forth windy TRADE against the message,
attempting to argue that because Boston and
New York had more bank capital than Penn
sylvania, therefore it should be increased in
our State! What an illuIrious idea? Who
but Speaker STRONG, would ever have discoy-
cred that the interests of Pennsylvania were
languishing for want of shin plasters Does he
suppose that bank notes will develop the re-
sources of Pennsylvania? Why, if they were
as plenty as flies in molasses hogshead in
summer time, the price of labor would not be
increased. The merchant and the banker it is
true, might enjoy the good things of life, but
would it assist the hardy sons Of toll in their
struggle with helplessness and poverty.
When money is abundant and times are ca
sy, bank accommodations are freely offered.
Then loans can be obtained, and bank notes
are plenty, but when hard times come then
the bank managers must take care of number
one;-they Immediately contract, call in their
loans and stop their accommodations. Who
is benefited then2 Is it the poor man i?
We hope and believe that Gov Pollock will
pursue the course he has adopted, which is so
evidently in consonance with the wishes of the
whole people. Let him veto every charter of
corporation, which is not fndespensibly neces-
Sary, and he will be, We long since predicted,
one OF the most popular Governors Pennsyl-
vania has ever had. si4

CLEARFIELD ACADEMY.

We are glad to learn that the Trustees OF
the Academy have been planting trees, and
otherwise beautifying the premises, and that
they contemplate making other improvements.
We have every facility here for building up an
institution second to none in the State. 1t is
now under the charge of Mr.. and Mrs. CAMP
BELL, who are well qualified to conduct first
class establishment, and who have proven by
their success, since they have resided among
us, that they are talented aud accomplished
teachers.
Located as our quiet little town is upon the
West Branch of the Susquehanna, it possesses
no ordinary attractions to the student who
wishes TO devote his time to his books, and
enjoy a salubrious and healthy atmospheric
There is nothing here to attract his attention
from his studies, while he can enjoy the most
robust health, and roam over a vast field rich
in botanical and geological specimens.
To those young men among us who are fit
ting themselves for teachers, and who are un-
able to bear the expenses of collegiate edu-
cation, this institution offers peculiar advan-
tages. In fact, they can enjoy all the benefits
ofa Normal school, and for very triaing sum
can obtain that instruction peculiarly adapted
totheir profession. 1t has been the complaint
of our County superintendent, and we think
not without much reason, that large number
OF teachers are wholly unqualified to discharge
their duties. II they desire to o5viate this
difficulty, and to prepare themselves properly
for the profession, they should embrace this
opportunity, one which, we can assure them,
is very seldom offered. Mr.. CAMPBELL, is a
practical aud experienced teacher, and fully
competent to give all those instructions that
are required in orfier ID obtain sproperkDowi-
edge Of the profession.

SPEAKER STRONG on THE BANK VETO.

On the reading Of Gov. Polock's Veto of
the Bank of Pottstown, in the House, Speaker
STRONG launche forth in a tide of bitter invec-
tive against the Message. He argued that the
doctrines Of the Message had long since sex
ploded,'' and severe faS wearing out in this
state. and had entirely worn out in several OF
the states-' We fear that like old Rip Van
Winkle, Mr.. Speaker Strong has just woke up
from profound slumber, with the remem-
brance OF his dreams fresh upon him (which as
Rory O'More says
Railways go by cOntTaTies my DEAR
1t strikes us if he will examine the history
of banking, back as far as Simon Sn yder's
Administration, he will discover that it is his
policy which has ''exploded'' and not the doc
trines contained in the Governors Message
What WAS The result of chartering a tremend-
Gus batch Of banks at that time, and what doc
trine exploded when the United States, and
Girard banks were chartered2 We advise Mr..
Speaker Strong to give the Legislative history
of the State more thorough examination be-
fere-he sets himself up in opposition to the
policy of restricting bank capital within its
present limits.
