During the month Of October, the total
amount of specie which arrived at New
York, New Orleans, and st. Louis was
s7,45l 900. To this sum, says the New
York Herald, should be added certificates
of deposit received by the Persia to the
amount Of over million of dollars, whic h
certificates are as good as, and in more
convenient form than specie itself, because
remittances to England can be made by
means Of them. Out of these monthly cash
receipts of seven and half millions of
dollars, we have not actually sent out Of
the country more than a mere triae--say
two or three hundred thousand dollars--so
that the first of November sees it richer by
at least seven millions of dollars in specie
than we were on tho first of October
This may seem extraordinary in view of
the depression in trade, but the fact is
nevertheless so. Though times are hard
specie is plenty. 1e'r-

IRISH MELoDY.-Perhaps there is nc
music in the world, equal to the native
airs of Ireland. We are an admirer oi
Ireland and Irishmen; we love their &c.
centricity, and their ardent attachment to
liberty. We pour with pleasure, over the
pages of her eloquent songs, the bursts Of
her Sheridan, her Grattar, her Currau,
and her Emmet; and we cherish fondly iu
our memories, the beauties of her melodies,
as they we're "married to immortal verse, ~
by the greatest living poet, Tom Moore.
The poetry and the music must go down
to prosperity together, and neither can
ever be forgotten. His Country and her
daughters, are the theme Of almost every
song; and till patriotism dies, md human
nature changes, love of country and Of
Ladies, must be, and will be, dressed in the
language of Moore. =. .f..-...-....--..

pd- No class Of men have tccn more
affected by the fnsncal troubles, than the
liquor dealers and restaurant keepers 10
our large cities. 1t seems men can govern
their appetites and quit their iudulgences,
when their notes are in danger of protest.
Many of the principal liquor saloons on
Broadway are about TO be closed, tho
receipts being daily considerably less than
the expenses. Ooe saloon near- the St.
Nicholas hotel, which averaged 500 per
day in its receipts, does not now take in
s5, and is advertised for sale. This fact
proves that the gentlemen can and will
retrench and that they have abandoned
habits that are at all times and under any
circumstances, expensive and pernicious -
They can therefore appeal with good grace
to the ladies to economize. rasae7 5.-

brought his slave within, the limits Of a
free State, and in that case, under the
principle ruled in Dred Scott, the girl Betty
was free. Free, notwithstanding the mon.
dacious assertioss Of the Black Republican
presses and oFators, that that decision
brought Slavery to our very doors. = Free
to go where she pleased-free 70 throw
herself upon the tender mercics Of the
New England abolitionists--frce to make
her election as to her place Of faiupe resi-.
dence.-Free to throw of forever those
chains of slavery which in the opinion of
the heartless crowd there assembled, CALLED
her so terribly.
She was free, because il is expressly
decided by the court; that the question of
freedom or slavery, is to be decided by the
State Courts, according to the laws Of the
State in which the slave may happen to be,
when proceedings are instituted /; and that
the court bad no jurisdiction to revise the
Judgment Of State Court upon its own
laws. So, as the Constitution Of the Uni
ted States provides only for the case of a
I" fagitive;" a slave voluntarily brought
within the boundaries Of a free State, would
be, by virtue Of such voluntary bringing,
free; and if he escapes, or is set free On
writ of habeas corpus, the owner has no
remedy. But il he is "fugitive fr IN
labor" then the Constitution of the Uoited
States, superior to any aere State author.
ity, and by virtue of e special provision on
that point, remands che slave to his master.
If few more such cases occur, we think
the people who have SO long been deceived
by the clap trap of the republicans, on the
bred Scott case, will begin to see the point
and acknowledge its soundness. 9dr

Bell, Buckalew and schell.

The next State Senate, will be one Of the
ablest bodies that has ever met in the Sen.
alto chamber at Harrisburg. We arc glad
to record the election of Hon. Thomas s.
Belk Of the Chester District; Hon. Charles
X, Buckalew Of the, Columbia District, and
ofrHon. William p. Schell, Of the Bedford
and Somerset District. They are able
men, and jsst the men for the position to
which they have been elected, and who,
with the venerable Wilkins, Welsh, Walton,
Wright, Brewer, Knox, and others will
form body that has rarely been rqaalled
in the past history of the State. Judge
Bell has always been fayorite in this
county, numbering numerous friends, apd
has never been q candidate for any position
that he has not received q portion, at least,
Of the votes of cold Montgomery" when ii
was in her power to give them, Hen.
Charles r. Buckalew was the talented
Chairman of the Democratic State Central
Committee during the campaign through
which we have just passed. How well and
how able he managed IL, the brilliant
success achieved on the second Tuesday of
October last, fully manifests. He is an
able and logical debster, and one of the
ablest men in the State, and who is des.
tined without doubt to gil higher stations.
Hon. William p. Schell, has won a great
victory, as the odds were largely against
him, tho district being, composed of BED.
ford, sumerset and Huntingdon counties,
district that no democrat would hardly
have dreamed Of carrying. The fact that
Mr.. Schell did carry the district speaks all
that need be told. He is one of the rising
men Of the State, and a man of the right
stamp. He is Bedford Counsy man--a
co-laborer ofthe energetic and indefatigable
Cessan, another of her self-made men,
who has already made his mask and whom
we expect to see at no very distant period,
Governor Of the State, and We record his
election with peculiar gratiHca ton, While
member Of the Legislature, o few years
ago, he was Speaker of the House, and he
would make an able Speaker of the Senate.
The election then Of such men as Bell,
Buckalew, and Scheil, reflects the highest
honor upon their constituents, and we may
expect legislation based upon sound priuci-
pies. Noayistoacn Register. ...

Bleeding Kansas.

School Union, now laboring in Kansas, has
addressed letter to eastern 4Sund ay ,scho oil
children, in the course of which he says /:
/" I wish, in the outset, to correct the i'm =.
pressions of any of my young friends who
are associating Kansas in their minds with
armed troops. Whatever may have been
the past history Of this Territory, I find,
from months careful observation, that
now all is peaceful and prosperous, and
that the great mass of the people, from all
parts of the Union, are an intellig gent, en-.
terprising, and orderly class of citizens,
living as quietly and tremendously togeth
er as 10 other portions Of the land. Hav.
ing recently settled in one of the fuest
countries that the sun ever shone upon,

Danville Beneficial Society.

AT meeting held Oct 3Oth, 1867, in the
council room of the Beneficial Society on
the occasion Of the death Of V. Best, the
following persons were appointed com-
mittee to draft resolutions to be presented
to the family Of the deceased, expressive
Of the sympathy of this society, of which
he was member:
Whereas, 1t has again pleased Provi.
dence, in his divine wisdom, to remove by
death ano'her of our respected and beloved
members :-Valentine Best. l. .u
Resolvea, That while we deeply feel his
loss to US as a society, aud tothis community
as individual member of the same, we
cannot refrain from expressing our natural
feelings at his absence from our social
midst, at the same time that we would be
resigned to the DEGREES Of that wise and
merciful Creator who dueih all things best
Feeling that, ia the death of our brother
member, our temporal loss is his eternal
gain may we, from his past history, take
as an example, by living temperately, hon.
estly, honorably commanding the universal
respect of the community in which he lived
But in his christian walk more particularly
may we be induced to follow his example.
After having arranged his earthly habita.
tion, he resigned himself into the keeping
Of that God in whom he had trusted, and
who alone is able to support US ia our last
hour of earthly afflicion, aud give US a
heavenly Inheritance where there is peace
and happiness throughout all eternity.
Resolced, That copy ofthe above pro-
ceedings be given to each of the editors Of
the borough papers for publication.
