He (Payne) sneered at the doctrine of in
alenable rights, sneered at the idea of ele.
waiting the black race from the despotism oi
slavery to position of higher morality and
civilization, and seemed himself, at least, to
think that the negro has no rights which
white man is bound to respect. Dem.
Mr.. Payne did no such thing, and you
know it! He distinctly said that he did not
desire to deprive the black race of single
privilege which is consistent with the rights
and prosperity Of the whites. He was np'
posed to giving the negro social and politl-
cal equality with the whites, here in Ohio
beca lsc an intermingling OF races, arising
from the influx of great number OF ne
groes would be highly deleterious to the hap
piness of the white laborers of our State
He further denied that the Supreme Cour
of the United States had decided "that tht
negro has no rights that the white man il
bound to respect, as alleged BY the Repuo
licans and said if it were so; he should thini
the decision an erroneous one.

sion among the Banks. The sound is heard
in every direction. Every letter, every
newspaper, every telcgruphic dispatch bears
US the tidings Of some new failure. Like
forest trees swept by the storm, they are
trembling, bending, breaking under the pres
sure which has come upon them, AMI from
their own internal weakness and corrup-
tions. Every bank in Philadelphia has sus-
pended; most Of the banks in Pittsburgh;
the majority in Baltimore; large number
in New York und Boston. The country
banks are also yielding one by one, and go
ing down with crash und groan. Moro
than one hundred banks have failed or 5us-
pended within single month. More than
twenty-five million dollars hus been lost
A large portion Of this loss is sustained by
the laborcrS OF the country--those who by
daily toll have gathered up and deposited
their earnings for the day Of sickness and
old age. Now, they are Fcnnicss.
These commissions in the monetary world
will continue SO long as few unprincip!eC
Rag Barons arc permitted to issue their mis-
erable "promises to puy." Down with the
banks then! They are unsafe and unroiia-
bic.
Every falling bank furnishes. powerful
argument in favor Of an Independent T4Ieas-

A subs ri1er to the Lancaster Express,
who moved to the We tsomc time back, op.
pears to bc pretty thoroughly disgusted with
his change of residence, and, utter declaring
his intention OF returning to Pennsylvania,
writes ps follows, under date Of Monmouth,
Ill.,, Sept.7, 1857:
Ihave been very much disapPon'el in the
West. think mechanics in Pennsylvania
had much better stay there, as wages are
about the same, aud living cheaper. This
oloce don't suit my business; lumber too
high in price. Pine is worth $2l TO $t5
per thousand; poplar 1923 to %$33; and we
have seven furniture rooms, but they keep
auction or sale work, mado IN ,h3 cheHEea!
manner. Journeymcn carpenters get s!,5O
to Sl,75 per day, and houses rent much high
er than in Harrisburgh. A small one story
house, with two or three small rooms, rents
from SIS to $40 per month. Provisions are
high. Spring wheat -four is worth $3.50
per barrel; ham, 1890 per pound; potatoes i
per bushll; butter 20c. per pound; eggs !2c
per dozen. This is certainly fine farming
country; the land is very productive, and
every thing commands good price; but lane
is rp to its value, and they are asking $lOC
on acre near the city. AS for property ii
the city, (and every town that has two doz
en- one story houses is a city,) it is far above
its valuc-much higher than in Harrisburg
Our city has q population Of three thousand
and is improving; but the most Of the build
ings ure small one story buildings. Peop'
appear to live by cNcitemen! here comm!
and going all the time; and don't SEQ an
more chance for poor man here than ther
is in the East; in fact, not as much; yet tn
speculators write letters and adVise Pcopl
to come here. Bat so it is; and lind man
here from other States who wish they wer
back again; in fact, nearly every Pensy lar
ian saws he would rather live in the East
As for taxes, they ore higher here, I'm tol
