What is Said of Us.

TThe London Freeman, the able organ
of the English Baptists,ln summing up the
events of the past year, had the following
severe remarks on republican America: j
"The election of Mr. Buchanan was a
great triumph of TIE worst of causes; of
slavery and Shareholders over Christianity
aud Christian churches and it was gained
by the detection of the great Quaker
State, Pennsylvania, from the principles
Of its founder, America is the most de-
graded, at present, morally and religiously,
of all free and Protestant countries. 1t
is the reproach of Evangelical Christen-
dom. Her Shareholders defy both God
and man, and the freemen Of the Free
States sacrifice their own political freedom
and the personal rights of the negro, to
low and noisy political party! The Uni
ted States are to US a greater grief than
Heathendom and Popery, for the names
of Christianity and Protestanism, of civil
and religious liberty, are blasphemed thro'
them. Oh, that the Free States may burst
their fetters, get rid of the aceursed thing,
and Join the mother country in heading the
march of Christianity and civilization y

of men and women reduced from atlluence
or Independence to penury, by 10 fault Of
their ogn-and tens Of thousands have
felt the bitter pGngs Of want, Of trouble,
anl Of direst apprehension.
Thanks to the rccupcrative energies of
people SO blessed by God as is our own,
this state of things can not long continue.
The practice of ccoaoply and rctrcnchment
has cancelled, in these few months, many
Millions of indebtedness. The test has
generally demonstrated who were solvent,
and who were insolvent, so that business
can hereafter be done more safely. Twenty
Millions Of People-saving an average of
Fifty Dollars each for articles heretofore
obtained from abroad-would make an
aggregate sa7ing-an addition to our real
wealth-of One THOUSAND MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS. Probably that amount has
been gained to our country by the re-
trenchment compelled by the late pecuni.
AIRY pressure.
Such economy is producing its fruits.
We see numerous statements, from various
quarters, Of resumption Of business by Mer
cantilo and Manufacturing houses-iuclu-
ding some which had gone into assign
ment, but have come out again with the
means to resume their old mode of livcli-
hood.
The new Treasury Notes, instead Of
commanding a premium, are halt It cent
discnua. in the market This shows no
suffering on the part of capitalists.
b.. the best sign Of returning prosper

be loaned in Nc0 York cj,y,to the Jest men,

not pay within two per cent of legal inter

rate.
sayNcw York City has Twenty Two
Millions Of Dollars in specie in the vaults
of her Banks. This money can not lie
there long, fr ,hoae who own it must get
the use Of it-can not live by leaving it in
idleness must put it into motion in some
safe business, (nui We want no Other)
The Levisburg Bank, the Sd of this
month, reported $4,000 on hand Of de.
posits-showing tlat, in country as well
as in city, there is an immense amount of
money, only requiring confidence to be put
in more active circulation.
The prospect, from these reasons
and in view Of these facts-is, that there
will be forthwith steady but sure return
of fsubstantial business prosperity, and that
in a year Or two money will be loaned at
lower rates than it has been for very many
years previous.

Marketing,

@Harrisburg and other market towns
this winter complain Of the poor attend
anco of both buyers aud sellers at markets.
Last Saturday, there was no; thing but
beef in the usually full Harrisburg stalls
This arises from two probable causes
people in towns have but little money for
marketing, the times always affecting
towns and cities the worst and then the
country people have bat little need of
money, and many Of them are keeping
back their products for higher prices :
Still there are few to buy and few to
sell, and we think those who are willing to
take present prices viii hit It, Provisions
have been toe high for some years, and the
multitudcs who viii 60 to farming and
gardening next season will tend to reduce
rather than to raise the rates.
In Lewisburg, since the foul weather
set in, the same scantincss of supply has
been complained Of by those who had the
money to pay, but who could not wait on
hour after hour to suit the very uncertain
time when supplies would be in. Sellers
and buyers at the same hour an The same
place, is the most satisfactory dealing.

Borrowed Books.

Have you any borrowed books? So
much benef. may be derived from books
that are loaned, it is pity to do anything
which shall hinder the practice; But, keep
ing books a great length of time, tires the
patience Of the owners, so that they are
less disposed to lend again, whilst 1t de-
prives them of the power of lending those
books to others, all the time they arc need
lessly kept. Some retain books, hoping
to have more leisure by and BY, and some
from carelessness. In either case, let
there be reform. II one has not time to
read at present, the books may be loaned
to those who have. If neglect has been
indulged, let it be SO no longer, nor misuse
the kind interest of friend Punctuality
in returning books, as we'll as carefulness
in the use of them, is not merely an act Of
polite attention, but moral and religious
duty.

decided by the Judge were-"lst. That
a person about TO cross a railroad track, is
in duty bound to stop and look in both
directions, and listen before crossing. %
That if the plaintiff contributed in the
slightest degree to the accident in question,
he could not recover, although the railroad
company were negligent"

SELECTING SEED CORy.-One Of our
agricultural readers says, be never has
any trouble about his corn terminating.
When he is about to shell his crop, he
Jocks out carefully for his seed. Select
isg the largest and best ears, he breaks
them in two, and examines the cob. If
it is dark colored, or exhibits the least
sign of decay, it Is at once rejected. II
on the othcr hand, the cob is bright and
sound, the corn has all its terminating
qualities, and it is saved for seed. BY
this process the flrmer is sure to have
g99d scsd The experiment. is simple aud
easily tried, and as there caI be no doubt
of its success, vast deal Of time, labor
aud vexation will be saved to the farmer
after the corn is planted.-Dsl. Co. Rep.
