MONEY MATrERs.--Somehow or other
we cannot tell how but somehow, our cash
receipts have been growing "small by de-
grees ind beautifully less" Of late. We can
hardlt think it is altogether owing to the
hard times; for there is certainly more
money in circulation now than there was
two or three months ago. Yet our receipts
are smaller now than they were even then.
We knov it is not because every body has
paid up the old score; fer the number Of
delinquents was never greater than at the
present moment. Neither is it because
our expenses have decreased. They were
never higher since we came to Pomeroy.
Nor is II because creditors are lenient, and
indulge us to an indefinite extent; for we
cannot now think Of more than two credit

informed us how very hard the times were,
how many little debts they were owing, and
how extremely nice and convenientit would

WANTS OF PoMERoY.-We propose to
notice few Of the most pressing wants Of
this community, in The hope that some means
may be devised to relieve them.
/. Dweuing-houses. For the past month
we have been searching for house to live
in; during which time we have met twenty
others in like pursuit. Every house in town
is either occupied or engaged, and many
families unsuppled-ours among the num-
Der. Rents are exorbitant and tenements
miserably poor. Buildings scarcely fit for
cow-stables rent for $50 or $50 year.
2. Hotels and Boarding Houses. We do
not believe there is town Of equal size in
the United States, where this want is so se-
riously felt. The fact is, there is no build
ing in the town suitable for hotel, and not
many fit for boarding-houses. Regard for
the feelings Of those who are doing their
best to accommodate prevents our saying
any thing more on this subject, although
much more ought to be said ,
8. Livery Stable. If an individual wishes
to ride few miles in the country, ten to
one he will be compelled to walk half the
distance he wishes to ride, in search Of q
horse and buggy; and then pay three prices
for miserable concern, unless he is well
acquainted here. Pr
A first class hoel, two or three good
boarding houses, livery-stable, and fifty
or sixsy dwelling-houses for rent, would ado
greatly to the prosperity of the town, ant
pay a handsome profit to the owners.

SLAVERY VS.. FREEDOM.

The following paragraph Gdy illustrates the
feelings and opinions of the friends of Slavery
in regard to poor men and foreigners. The
-DooIehouSe La Idcocate' says:
The great mass of foreigners who come to
our shores are laborers, and consequently come
in competition with slave labor 1t is to their
int rest to abolish Slavery, and we know full
well the disposition Of man to promote all things
which advance his own interests. These men
come from nations where Slavery is not allow
ed, and they drink in Abolition sentiments from
their mothers breasts; they (all the white race J
entertain an utter adherence of being put on a
level with blacks, whether in the field or in the
workshop. Could Slavery be abolished, there
would be a greater demand for laborers, and
the prices OF labor must be greatly enhanced
These may be termed the Internal Evidences
of TIE Aholitionism of Foreigners
"Eutwe may find near home facts to corrob.
crate these internal evidences 1t is well
known that there exists great antipathy among
drGyiaen and rioermea Of New Orleans (who
