ITEMS FROM THE PILOT FILES.
FIFTY YEARS AGO.

RETRENCHMENT IN EXPENSES-Dur-
ing the present stagnation in business,
and the great scarcity of money, the
merchant, the mechanic, and all trades
and professions are obliged to retrench
their usual expenses, to save themsel-
YES from bankruptcy. For these rea-
sons, and to avoid running into debt,
we will issue only half sheet weekly
until those in arrears shall replenish
our treasury, or the times improve.
One cause for this course is, that our
jonrneyman has volunteered for the
war, leaving us without the necessary
help in the Office.

HEALTH OF JUDGE DOUGLAS. Judge
Douglas has been seriously indisposed
for several days-so much so that his
physicians gave up all hope for his re-
covery on Friday night. Since then
we have received the joyful news that
his health was improving, and that on
Monday he was considered out of dan
ger. We are rejoiced at this, as the
exigencies of the present hour demand
his counsel and the assistance of his eX-
perienced and wise craftsmanship. He
could not well be spared by his coun-
trymen at this time, and we hope he
will live to see his country once more
peaceful and happy.
