The Decencies or Lift. There are pertone in the world who, in order to screen themselves ftom the charge of extrava* nance and folly, try to do it under the plea of decency. These persona will commit many nets which if they had true ideas of decency, thny would hceitata to perpetrate. We think the following are a few of the many practices that come under the cogomen of not It ia net decent for a person to make a show above Ilia or her meeae. It ia uot decent for a person to ran in debt when he does not intend to pay. It ia no, decent to ascribe improper motives to every one we may come in contnct with. It ia not decent for one to appropriate another’s pecuniary means for hie own gratification. It ia no, decent for young people to show no respect to llte aged. Ilia uot decent to be praising yourselves always. It ia not decent to keep yourself as a show for others to look at. It is not decent in peraona going to places of amusement to incommode others in different ways. It ia not dacent to spend your money in foolishness when you have debts that ought to be paid. It is uot decent to starve yonr family by upending your money for liqnor. I, is not decent to say one thing and mean another. It is not deceul to cheat your neighbor because you have a little more knowledge than lie ia possessed of. It ia not decent ,o be borrowing papers when you can get the r*t,L*ptc>i for sl,socet per annum.

®“The Indianapolis Sentinel says the 7mrfer’ Bank is the name of anew swindling shop, hailing front Terre Haute, hut doing husi ness in New York, where the hills circulate a, a small discount. Not one dollar has yet made its appearance in Terre Haute or any! office opened for its redemption. This shows the heatity of the system. Lafyette Courier mentions another, A Mr. \V hcelock, of New oik, (of course,) is ! out there making arranm.cn,s to open the Grancry Bank with a capital of sloo,#oo. The bills are engraved, and the money will be ; put in circulation in a few rrocks.

PALLADIUM.' RICHMOND, Indian*, December ,IS6I SSF* We ask the indulgence of the render i for the space occupied by the lews of tba United States ore hare been publishing for some months. They -will the more readily do this, when giey reflect that no orhig paper trill hare the #pportunity to thus impose upon them again, for at least four years to come. One or toro more weeks, will close up the matter. gar Several articles prepared for this paper hare been crowded out by the law found on the first and aecond pages.

tSf* Correspondents must excase us for a few weeks, when we will open the budget which has accumulated on our hands. ,Jt . „ * Court of Common Pleat—Probate Butinttt. —Ths Logansport Journal, says:—“The new Court of Common Pleas will probably not commence in January. On the adjournment, a person was left to revise the acts of the Legislature, who finding some of them unintelligible, corrected them, as he supposed was necessary.— The Governor is of the opinion that the changes made affect the laws, and in consonance, it has been concluded to withhold the distribution of th* ravi*ud statutes until after tb* time designated by law, Which renders the laws Inoperative until the change* and omissions are legalized by the approaching legislature. It is said too, that the law organizing the new court makes no provision for transfering probate business from the old Probate Court to the new one. Business commenced in the old court cannot therefore be carried into the new without an additional act by the next Legislature.” We have heard intimations of the changct

referred to above, and if alterations have been made, of course tha law is void; and the Governor is justified in withholding the revised statutes as suggested. An omission to transfer the Probate business to the now court, will prevent the transaction of any business now on the old docket, until such transfer Is made, but, we suppose, will not prevent the commencement of any new business.

* ttiagmanJ and J?nrt Wajine Uailrfad ( .r—'W are requested to give notice, that at a htecting of the delegates from Bluffton, Camden and Winchester, held at the latter place on the 16th inst., it was “resolved that there be a meeting of the stockholders in tho proposed Railroad from Richmond to Fort Wayne, at Camden, Jay county, on the Ist day of January next, for the purpose of organizing a Corporate Company in conformity with the general laws of Indians, for the purpose of constructing said proposed road.”

We give the notice as requested with great pleasure; and we take the occasion to suggest to the citizens at this end of the proposed road that they should be represented in tire meeting at Camden—not only by delegates, but by stock in surh a quantity as to convince our friends at the north that we are determined to wbmrtf no it is the means of securing an important connection that cannot be made in any other way. It is the cheapest route for the construdtion of a road of the same length in Indiana—it will pass through a section of country that is comparatively unimproved, but which is susceptible of a high production. It would secure to our citizens advantages in the way of lumber which cannot be so easily secured by any other means -it would connect us with the Wabash and Erie Canal at the nearest point. But the great importance of the road, is to the district of country through which it will pass. The increased value of the lands benefitted by it—not a fictitious value, but the substantial value found in a ready, early, certain market, with far increased prices, will more than pay for the construction of the road in five years. It will attract emigration, and inspire those already there with renewed zeal in their respective avocations. The first act after the organization should be a thorough and complete survey, when the question can be presented to the public mind in its true light.

Decline in the valve of Money.—The North American Review, in an article on money mailers, speaks of an anticipated decline in the value of money, and thinks it but the exercise of ordinary caution to assume that the annual supply of precious metals will not below a huudred million of dollars for many years, and that in a quarter of a century this supply will ’ depreciate money to one half or one third its present value. The commercial Gazette, com- 1 menting upon this remark, is of the opinion,' that the operation will be very gradual, and 1 must continue for many years. A decline in the ralue -of money will increase w*ges, and prices of agricultural and manufacturing products, as well as real estate. In this general and gradual change, there will be no revulsion 1 to produce general distress.

The Indiana State Sentinel says: The next Ohio State Fair will be held at Davton, 1 and we presume the State Board of Indiana will j decide in favor or Richmond. This will make the two Fairs within forty miles of each other. | The points, by that time, will be connected by i Railroad. We trust the Sentinel’s prediction may jhe verified. There are many strong and pecu- j ; bar reasons why the next State Fair should be held at Lafayette, not least among which is the fact mentioned, that the two State Fairs will come so close together.—Lafayette Journal. ! Now we think that the proximity of the two State Fairs, should Richmond be designated bv' our Hoosier friends, will increase the number of visitors at both. Forty miles of railway i travel will take you from one to the other; and thousands who attend one, will also visit the other—provided both are held at the same time. —Dayton Journal.

i Fix it up gentlemen to suit yourselves; but we expect the next Indiana State Fair will be held here—if we can get it. Query. — We are informed that our new judge, Mr. Anthony, has been holding Courts in several of the northern counties of this Circuit. The Isw says, if we have not forgotten, that the first Court shall be beld in Wayne county.—, How is it Joseph?

We ere authorized to announce J ohn Fin , j*t, as a candidate for Mayor. 3. L. Harris, is a candidate for Marshal at the Ctiy B. W. Davis is a candidate for Clerk. Sew Year's Eve — Fair — Supper, dkc. —The Ladies connected with the Presbyterian Church i in this place, hare made arrangements to hold a Fair in the Warner Building on New Year’s Eve—the proceeds of which are to be applied to the benefit of the Church, now being erected in this city. The articles to be offered for sale hare been prepared with much care and good taste, and embrace a great variety of both useful and ornamental articles. The preparation of the supper has been confided to the superintendence of ladies who know how to prepare the "fatlings” in the most approved style of the art of cooking. The cakes will be rich—the confections superb—and all in good style. Notwithstanding the trouble and inconvenience, the supper will be sefved up warm, and in such manner as to secure the commendation of all who can appreciate the "creature comforts” of this life. The price of supper will be fifty cents for a gentleman, and seventy-five cents for lady

and gentleman. Our Presbyterian friends are building a Church which will be an ornament to the city, and give character to it—thus interesting all of our citizens; and it is hoped they will contribute, through the Fair, their mites towards defraying the expense of building. Rev. Wm. Young, of this city, recently donated 92,000 to the Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church. A liberal aet, that.— J<ff. Suicide. —N. F. Martin, some time past confined in the jail of this county, committed suicide on Thursday morning last, by hanging himself in his cell. He look his bed cord and placed it round the upper bar of the grate in the door of his cell and around his neck. When found, his knees were within a few inches of the floor, having held up his feet to insure death. - H4s hands- were- also clasped on the grate bars, but were probably placed there in the last convulsions of life, and too late to relieve the neck. Martin was confined under a charge of setting fire to a barn, and several other offences, and in public opinion there was little doubt of his guilt. Ills wife visited him on Sunday last, and her separation from him is said to have been most affecting and solemn. Perhaps his intention to destroy his life was made known to her, and the parting then had was known to be for life; and that their next meeting would be at the bar of the All-wise Judge. It was a time for solemnity. The past life of the departed—his many transgressions—the certainty of that law and the Divine court at which he was about to submit his fate, was a theme for solemn tho’t. Y el it is to that repentance and suppli—that the prayers of the world-adjudged crimcriminal and his loving wife had secured from the Eternal Judge the verdict which is pronounced to all who seek forgiveness through I faith and repentance. Ouster Saloon.— Mr. MTntosh has fitted up an establishment for the accommodation of all lovers of those molluscous bivalves that are now considered so great a luxury, secured to us by Railroads and other means of speedy communication with the East. The establishment is neat, clean, tasty, every thing conducted in good order. The ladies and gentlemen of; the city are invited to call and satisfy themselves.

Pork Season. —At a much earlier day than usual, it is said the pork season is about coming to a close. We are informed by those engaged in the business at this place that from 12,090 to 16,000 will be put up at the two establishments operating near the depot. The average weight of the hogs slaughtered here is very good. The prices paid, ranged from five dollars to five dollars and seventy-five cents. A much larger number might have been secured had our packers entered the market at an earlier day. 09“ We advise all who visit Cincinnati, to I P^ r ®^ ase their Tea of Moore fit Chester, corner of Seventh and Walnut streets. This is the, largest and best conducted establishment west j of the Atlantic; and as the proprietors sell only j for cash, they have no bad debts to saddle upon ' I "j ,r customers in the way of extravagant proThe Freshet. —The continued rains for the 24 ' hours previous to. Thursday evening, - created J quite a freshet in the streams of this vicinity.— ; j The bridge over Newman’s creek, on the Williamsburg rond is swept away; and the dam of Mr. Brightwell’s will is entirely gone. Fences in the bottom lands have been washed away, and the soil more or less injured by being carri- j ed off or having deposites of sand and gravel upon them. We have not heard of the loss of, any stock, and we trust none has occurred.

Edwin VF Morrison. —Departed this life on Thursday evening last, of Consumption, Edwin I W. Morrison, aged about 30 years. Mr. Mor- ■ rison was a printer and learned the trade in this office.

HosWoca, of Cantbridgo City, will address ths meetiof, Sod the citireos of Richmond sad vicinity are raspeotfalty invilad to coma and hoar him. At the M. E. Church, on Friday evening last, Prof, Ntrrr, of Cantravills, eloquently and irnthfnlly portrayed the effects of the liqaor-lrafße In destroying the souls and bodies of men, and the rain end wide-spread desolation it had wrought, and the crime and untold | I .orrows it wan still engendering in commonily. In view of the evils it had done and was doing, he appealed ( to every philanthropist—every one who loved his species, to come np to the help of the great temperance work of destroying this monatsr-evil, root and branch. He advocated legal suasion for tho liquor-seller, and moral suasion for tho unfortunate drunkard; and we did wish that the liquor-sellers and those Who desire t a engage in the horrible business of manufacturing drnnkards—widows and orphans—crime aid! wretchedness, and all who are favorable to licensing such beings and protecting them in their miserable work by the strong arm of the law, had been present: much mors good might havs boon effected. We hope our friend Novr may be induced to give us another lectors on this important topic previous to our city election, when, we trust, a portion of those engaged in the traffic and all friendly to it in this city, may be induced to come and hear him. In the mean time, we respectfully urge this class of our fsllow-eitizens to come aaJ hear Mr. Iloshour to-night—eomo, ’twill do you good.

From each one a quarter or less, will satisfy him, we guess.— There, now! we’ve did ill
