*"f

A NEW CURRENCY".

We are sorry to be under tbe necessity of bringing the attention of the public to the new scrip island by the State of fn-Jiana to the respective 8 branches, and by them issued in tbe shape of d»1%': counts, receivable in payment of the same. We think this scrip destined to the same fate with tbe former issues of the State. It may be said, that it will always be at or nearly up to par, because it is "receivable for the loans made by the banks »n this kind of paper, but all history shows the contrary.

The paper of the broken banks of Ohio and Illinois is depreciated, although there are more than twire the amount of debts due those banks, than notes circulation and it is no small depreciation, but as much as 60 to 70 cents discount on the dollar. II their reception in payment of debts is fie only basis of their circulation, they will soon fall.

But the most alarming feature of the whole plan is that the Banks of Indiana are authorized to issue no less than $800,000 of this worthless stuff. We *ee that the Lawrenceburgh branch has made a deposite in this city, at the Mechanics & Traders' Bank, for the purpose of redeeming their issues of this sort at 2 per cent, discount. Now who so blind as not to see through this trick! As soon as by keeping it nearly at par they obtain a very large circulation, they may withdraw this deposit,and entrench themselves in the provision of the law, enforcing them only to receive this paper for debts made by loaning it, and the paper depreciates at once, to the great injury of the public, and benefit of the debtor of the hank.

We clip the foregoing article from Goodman's Western Counterfeit Detector published at Cincinnati, and give it to our readers as affording another evidence of the determination of those who regulate business and currency at Cincinnati to put down the business and credit of Indiana.

We all renumber the simultaneous and successful effort made by the Cincinnati press and brokers last spring immediately after the law passed to compel a resumption of the Indiana banks, to destroy the credit of our old issue of Treasury notes. At the time this unnecessry and abusive attack •was made upon them, they were performing the most valuable purposes of a currency and would so have continued but for this determination to put them down, so that Indiana bonk paper could with belter grace be exacted for the amount due Cincinnati, preparatory to the demand ofterrfards made for specie*

Seldom have we seen more malignity or perverse ignorance displayed than in the article quoted, and coming from one professing much fairness about money matters and pretending to give correct intelligence to the public, wc might have expected a somewhat closer adherence to facts than it contains.

It asserts that the Indiana banks are "authorized to issue no less than $800,000 of this worthless stuff."

Iu the first place we nuarrel with this expression, "are authorized to issttey" for who from it. would not be led to understand that the banks themselves bad been instrumental in the crcation of this paper, that Ihcy were making a new and irredeemable, currency. Now, to use the writers own words, "who SO blind as not tosu through thii trick." This effort to disparage the standing of the Indiana banks, as if they had made this new currency as some shift or device, like a part or irreuemable circulation of their own, or had got the state to give it to thom merely for the purpose of creating anew currency.

There would have been some greater show of fairness, had the writer cautioned the public against tbe reception of this paper, when uot endorsed by a responsible bank. But that was not the object.it was In effect, me Lawrenceburgh Branch that was to be put down —and had that been by a fair statement, we should make no complaint. Such a statement would have been as follows

The State of Indiana has paid the banks of that State a debt of some $923,000, in Treasury notes, bearing five per ccnt interest, and payable 2 years after date but receivable in the mean time for taxes, and all public dues

My liearers: Fortitude patience, and perseverance are the only team horses capable of dragging the lumbering car of man's hope ihroughthe marsh of misfortune. Fretting, flinching, cursing, or swearing can no more extricate one from difficulty than a silly shad can release itself from the fisherman's net, by idle flapping and floundering. When a man finds himself in the midst of thorns and briars of trouble, the only way for him is to step cautiously and feel his road through them with the utmost care but if he fret, fluster and bluster he is sure to effect nothing more

Now, it is true that tho law authorising Ihe pavment of the banks in this kind of paper onlv requires them to receive it in payment of debts made by loaning iti yel this writer could not have been ignorant of the fact, that the Lawrenceburgh branch, of whose issues ho is speaking, endorses the same receivable in payment of all debts due that branch, and not those merely made by loaning it, and therefore could not en Irenes h«rrself behind the law. Yet this important fact is studiously concealed from the public whom he is desirous of alurming.

We will examine another argument predicated upon equally false premises. SpeaKins of the impracticability of this nawr being kept up, bora use it is receivable tor the loans made by the banks of it, he says: "But all history shows the fontrary. The pamper of the broken banks of Ohio and Illinois "is depreciatctl, although there are more than "twice the amount of debts due these banks "than notes in circulation. And it is no "small depreciation, but as much as 60 to 70 "centslliscounton the dollar. If their recep"tr&u in payment of debts is the only basis of "circulation, they will soon fall."

Again, the paper of these broken bonks is depreciated, although they have debts to twice the atnouiit due them.

OB, &KALLY. HEALTH COMPARED WITH 85 OR 50 CENTS. f*TE know that these Pills of Peters are emiff nently tbe heat vegetable anti-billions Pills in use—we can also prove this and from it will not depart, and who does not know itl A cloud of witnesses are before you and the world, too numerous—too intelligent—resistless, speaking what they do know, and testifying what they have seen and experienced. Without exception, in any age or country, no medicine has spread with such rapidity and given such universal satisfaction—they are in general use throughout the American continent and elsewhere—and their resistless power and innocence proclaim them one of the happiest discoveries of modern days, and an inestimable publie blessing. They are simple in their preparation, and mild and kind in their action, thorough in their operation, and unrivalled in tbeir results. The town and country are alike filled with their praise. Tbe palace and poor house alike echo with their virtues —in all climates, under all temperatures, they will retain their wonderful powers, and exert them unaltered by age or situation, and this the voice of a .grateful community proclaims.

They will cure Billions Fever, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints,Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsey, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the 8pleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Furred Tongue, Heartburn, Nausea, Distension of tEe Stomach and the Bowels, Incipient Diarrhea, Flatulence, Habitual Costivoness, loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion, and in all cases of Torpor of the Bowels, where a cathartic or an aperient is indicated, producing neither nausea, griping, nor debility, and are the scientific compound of a regular physician who has made his profession the study of his life. Dr. Peters was bred to the healing art. Ho is a graduate of Yale College, and the medical college of Berkshire, Mass. diplomas from both hang in his office, Liberty St. New York. Also, the American Institute honored him with three premiums, for his Inimitable skill and perfection, in generalizing and manufacturing medicines, and ^e medical society of N. Y. have recognized Peters' Pills with their sanction and individual patronage. Dr. Peters formerly practiced in the marshy district South, where agues, fevers, «nd yellowjack, grow out of a morbid state of the bile, and here it was that Peters' Pills originated for the benefit of mankind. Some very quacks tell you their nostrums will euro every thing. I would as leave swallow prescriptions, wrappers 'and all, as a tale so absurd. Peters' Pills Work no such miracles, although I take them and derive more real benefit in one box than in fifty dollars laid out in my former way, and I would exchange them for none.

The care with which a box of pills is put under Dr. Peters' own inspection, their adaptation to every variety of ills, where cathartics are indicated, and their happy influence on young ladies while suffering under the usual changes of life, as directed by the laws of nature. Three or four is a common dose, hence the patient is not compelled to make a meal out of them. Only read what they have done, we mean if any are yet unacquainted with their power and efficacy, please to call on the agents, and see a pamphlet published by Dr. Peters, where they are recommended by such persons as will inspire confidence. The subscribers, also, have found by the past years, experience, that it is really what it is recommended to be, have obtained anew supply from Dr. Peters, for wholesale, &c. at his prices. Inquire for Peters* Vegetable Pills, (£j* Price 25 or 50 cents. The resistless force of such truths, their universal reception, added to tho testimony of millions, 'keep it before the people,' must and will be heard throughout this vale of tears. 100 Dozen Boxes for sale, by the Dozen or single Box, by

published at Terre-Haute, Indiana, satd con* by tbe underaigned. THREE mimbertof the paper have «lw*jy been iBsoed, and U» Editor cm, with some degree of confidence, aak aninciwue of subscribers, having shown the public ti»*altt»ef may expect,

pie of the publication itoeK Having a jost confidence iu the liberality of the Wabash cotnnraiutiea, he did not stop to ask their mpport, in advance, but calmly entered on the discharge of hianew duties, believing that those honesdy laboring 9ok[ them, would be sustained in an arduous Undertaking. The paper is before the public, aad if it meets the views of the reading community, thtn^ need be no fear of the remit.

The numbers now published express the viewa of tho Editor, and may be received as an accurate index of his future course. During nine ycarsf those opinions have been freely given to his former readers, and he has seen no good c&uso to depart,, in any degree, from the landmarks which guided, him in former contests. This remark will super* scde the necessity of any new declaration of political faith, and it will be omitted here. He stands precisely where he did in 1886 and 1840 the ad" vocate of Whig measures and Whig men.

I have said, in the first number .of the Express, that the sale of the Wabash Courier was unexpecto me, possessing no proprietorship in that catab* iishment, at the lime of the transfer, nor for four months previously. Had I possessed a negative voice in that arrangement, it never would havsbaea. consummated, for reasons which my present enter prise will fully explain. The founder of that pa per, and it the offspring of my early labors, itpaa aedfrom my hands .at a time when it was becom ing profitable, and when the toils of nu|Kyta*s #srs likely to be recompensed by a substantial income* Though the acting editor of that print, at the tune of sale, I was denied tho short space of two week* to make arrangements for its purchase, and thoM who never raised a voice in behalf of Whig principles, or spent an hour in their defence, were install ed in my place. I accuse no one of intending me injustice, but these circumstances will explain why the Courier passed from my control, and why I have established the EXPRESS. This statement seems necessary to put to rest an impression sought to be created, in a certain quarter, that a *hew paper hero is in derogation of a contract made wilh othere. No such contract exists—none such could exist, on my part If so, let it be shewn. I do not intend that previous wrong shall bo perpetuated by

Having said this much, in setting ourself ight in a matter where misrepresentation has been, anA may be, attempted, wc can assure tho public that the individual exertions of the Editor -will never bo abated till the Exrnxss shall attain a proper rank in the catalogue of Indiana newspapers. Hevrng at oar command one of the most complete and ex- f, tensive Printing Offices in tho Wabash Valley, we are resolved that the EXPRESS shall contain MORE READING MATTER, and a GREATER VA- I RIETY, than any other—that it shall be promptly published—promptly mailed—and all its departments regularly attended to.

will be regularly filled. In addjl exchange list, we are promised tliJTtontributions off several gentlemen known as writers on the science (for it is a science, if rightly followed,) of Agricul-1 ture and we calculate, in this way, perhaps hy single article, to save to many the expense of a year's subscription. We shall also attend, with unceasing punctuality, to a

an excellent'

Review ofthe Markets,

and, for this purpose, wc arc promised the cornspondcnce of a respectable mercantile firm at NewOrleans. While attending to the state of trade at the South, we shall not be unmindful of its condition at Baltimore, New York, Cincinnati, Louisvillc, and other great commercial points.

will appear every week, in which the relative value 'I of the currency shall be noted, and the public saved from those frauds which insolvent or broken Banks are sure tb entail on community. Tho importance j? of this is too manifest to need comment.
