Stnte Finances.

We often see our folly when it is too late
IL remedy it. OF the truth of this remark we
zero forcibly impressed Oh reading tie fol-
lowing account OF the finances Of the state
from the Annapolis correspondent OF the Bal
timore Sun Under the admirable arrange
ments instituted and carried into practical
effect by thu American party, the financial
Affairs OF the State have been conducted to u
most fiour:sLing and imposing condition.
Large SUMS have been added t. the sinking
fnnd,-thc State debt materially lcssened. and
sources of taxation which wer. aunoyine to
our people having been abandored while the
foursbing condition Of the Treasury at this
time justities large reduction in the direct
tax, the whole of tlio foregoing indicating hat
by proper management, in few years, tie
taxes in this State will be but nominal af-
fair.
But while this favorable state OF the tiuan-
ces has been brought about by the policy aud
admirably management OF the American par
ty, unfortunately the Legislative Department
Of the Government hae passed into the hands
Of the Democracy. What schemes they may
eoicoct, VIVA: measures devise or changes
mako, remains to be seen. With their known
aud avowea hatred of everything that has
been done BY the American party. they may
~ manage as to give into the hands of such

t. meet him at Springfield, the very day after
he was married in Dayton, under the cigcum-

and prevented the consGmation.
He was courting the third widow living in

town.

Ever since the outrage Of Brown and his
associates at Harper's Ferry the community
in the ncighborhood for miles round has been
in state Of the most intense and fcversh eX-
element. Imagination has been permitted
to play al kinds Of FRANKS, and every little
occurrence has been magnifed into some
thing serious. The burning of barns has
been attributed to the friends Of Brown Prov
ling about to seek revenge for his condemna-
tion AID az the prelude to an organized effort
to rescue lin from his certain and deserved
iooln. Some wicked wag, anxious to trite
with the fears ofthe people, circulated re-
port that i large body of armed men were
about to leave Ohio for the purpose of Browns
rescue, anil forthwith telegram was
sent to Gov. Wise for more troops, which the
Gov. answers by bringing OH in person a
regiment Of well appointed militia, SO that
there il now in and about Charlcstown more
| than thousand men under arms. To III
this appears supremacy ridiculous, and We
think is cGiculate! to bring the NlrSinlans IL
| to disreputr. We don't believe that any body
seriously contemplates tie rescuing of Brown
from his richly deserved fate, and we would
be sorry to entertain the de, for siugl,
moment, that BE people Of Jefferson and
Berkeley counties are not adequate to protect
themselves from any invading force that
might have the presumption to enter upon
such an expedition as that frescuing Brown
We think therefore, that the calling frcm
their homes such body Of men as that to
which We have referred might have been a.
voided, and tie ends Of justice fully secured,
the Eosrs Of the people would have been al
laycd. AMI the hurtful excitement would have
more ready died out.

Rollopay's PWs.-It seems as if the phar-
macopea were eventually to be narrowed
down to two specifics, Holloways Pills and
Ointment. We have conversed with indivd-
ua.s who have witnessed the effect ii the Pill
in cases of epilepsy, ordinary commissions,
spasms, bilious cole. palpitalion of the heart,
dyspepsia, etc.. aud they all tell the same sto-
ny Of their efficacy and intallbility. So, too,
of the Ointment. The general opinion seems
to be that it never fails in ulcerois aud erup-
tive cases. 1t is an indisputable fact that
those best acquainted with the preparations
have the most Implicit confidence in them.
