A Dsy PEorLE-We are informed that
one Of our leading wholesale liquor houses
yesterday shipped s l-2 tons of whiskey to
the capitol Of the State. They, about the
forks Of the Raccoon, must be a dry people
to require such u cargo Of liquor at one
time. 1t would not astonish us much to
hear of some bodys' being tight up in that
quarter, before long.-Keokuk Jour.

The "HARp TINES" IN MISUNDERSTANDING
some interest in knowing how the tax col
~lectiors in our State We're succeeding during
these 'hard times" in the collection of the
revenue, we mdae some inquiries of the
Treasurer, and learned from him that the
coll ctor are more generally prompt in
their returns than ever before, and that full
ly half of the revenue is paid in specie
Outside of the riv er counties only . email

the State Bank. The legitimate conclusion
is that Missouri is not "broke' vet, and that
her citizens generally are not only solvent
but in comparatively easy circumstances

The Davenport Gazette Of the 18th inst.
made Q statement that . ~"citizen Of Pitts
burgh presented 81 Of the bills to the Bank
Of Aurora for coin which was ~refused-and
finally redeemed them at five per cent. dis
count" But the Gazette forgot to mention
lst, That this demand was made two months
ago. during the general bank suspensions.
Cd, That gold was worth in Chicago at the
time, a premium Of 10 percent, and in Dav-
export 30 per cent, on Florence. Sd, That
the State Gom which the Pittsburger came
was the first to suspend specie payment and
the last to resume. 4th. That the bank Of
Aurora redeems its issues at par at present !;
while Cook h Sargent's shinplasters are on
ly worth 90 cents in Davenport, and so cents
in Chicago. aad no certainty that they will
be worth anything a week hence, while the
bills Of the Aurora Bank are as good as
gold now and in the future, no natter
