The TINES, &c.-Notwithstanding
there is some talk OF scarcity of funds,
hard times to borrow money, and that like,
We verify believe there has not been a time
within the past two years when there was
more money to be loaned than now. We
know of a large number of persons who are
prepared to furnish funds TO almost any
amount, and have means for bringing large
quantities of money here to loan, but this
money is laying under lock and key, and for
the very reason that they are very careful
about the nature of securities taken. The
failure of the crop, and the decrease in val
lie of real estate, has been the means Of de
stroying confidence, which we presume can
be restored again only by the return Of
bountiful harvest season, and the conse-
quent recuperation of the times Money is
not hard thing to borrow in these times
in either the West or th East, provided the
applicant has the right kind of securities to
give the lender. That is all that is required
We may talk of the overburdened banks of
the East, and wish the contents thereof
would make q trip this way-that is done
already. There is fully enough here to sup
ply :he demand--if not theie can be on
short notice; but nothing but first class Sc
curity is taken. There must be q change in
real estate and agricultural matters before
we can expect to see funds plenty and easily
procured in this market. Our bankers and
brokers are ready to discount, but they wish
to do their business in q more safe and
careful way than many have pursued here
tofore, when times were more propitious.-
But there is no reason to repine, nor is there
any good cause for turning back. Let US
continue to work, and, with the help Of
Providence. put ourselves in a position to
get hold of the sinews of war; as in for.
mer days. Some people will grumble any
way, but it is far more effective to place the
shoulder to the wheel and with might and
main push the car of improvement forward,
than be constantly pulling back. The land
is just as good in Scott county, and, for
aught we know. there is just as much of it
as there was when times were better, and
We believe there can be as much made from
it. Let farmers pay little more attention
to the culture Of corn, oats, hogs, cattle.
horses, etc, and less attention to the cult
vation of wheat, and We think there will
be less heard of hard times

ATTEMPT TO BREAK JAIL.-Ycster-
terday afternoon the prisoners confined in
our Jail, undertook to effect a general Jail
delivery, and in a manner not entirely new.
but often effective The prisoners had ef-
fected the removal of one of the bars, which
form the CRATE of rear window of the Jail,
by cutting away and loosening the stone in
which the lower end was imbedded; and
taking advantage of the absence of Mr..
Graham, who had gone into the country on
some business for the sheriff, thought to eff
feet an escape. They took out the bar, and
just while they were on the point of taking
their final departure from Jail life, were dis
Gov cred and thwarted in their design. They
will not probably have another chance to
play off any Of their jokes upon the public.

EF- The scarcity of potatoes in this
market is more felt than it has been for sev
erul years. Last fall, when the prices were
considered highly remunerative almost ev-
cry farmer brought his crop in and disposed
OF the same to spectators who took the
same away. And how is it now The
probability is very great that We shall be
under the necessity of going to other parts
and purchasing to bring here to retail at a
figure not often known. Good potatoes are
held at from ninety cents to one dollar per
bushel now. and it is fair to suppose that
they will reach one dollar and fifty cents or
two dollars per bushel before the new crop
comes in Well, let it be so-those who
cannot afford to purchase potatoes can have
the satisfaction of knowing that bread is
cheap, and can be used as substitute.

PATENT MEDICINEs.-It will be re-
membered that few days since, DR. l.
LANCER, much esteemed physician Of this
city, made an attack on Patent Medicines
generally. and advised Druggists to discon-
tinue the sale thereof; and publishers to
cease publishing advertisements Of such-
The Rock Island Commercial after viewing
the subject winds up as follows:
Dr. LANCER is assuredly aware that many
once quack medicines, are now used as
standard nostrums Where then is the line
to be drawn? 1t is true that many impair
tn eaith; but it~is also true that many
believers in Allopathy take Opium, Ether.
Cloroform and Calomel, in such quantities
that they break down their constitution,
and carry themselves to premature graves
These are not quack medicines. but regular
ingredients in Allopathic doses, and are
more fruitful of disease and death than any
patent medicine in use. Must we refuse to
advertise Cathartic Pills or Medicated Can
dy, yet puff Morphine? Must We recon-
mend Laudanum, and ignore Indian medi-
cines and herbs?
Dr. LANCER had better devote his time to
educating the people in the matter Of health.
Let mankind understand their constitution,
its needs and requirement, and there will
he less patent medicine than there has been
We admit the world takes too much phys
ic, but Mr.. LANCER must also concede I'VE
are dOctored too much" T"
