HARD TIMES. The. complaint of the scarcity of money and
the h'gh prices of provisions, appears to be general, at this time, among all classes of society. The merchant is embarrassed because
the banks refuse to make the UMial discounts:
the mechanic declares that marketing for his
family has enhanced fifty per cent, in price the employer complains of .strikes upon the part
of laborers, and our agriculturists complain
that cdtee, and oilier matters have risen be
yond all precedent. l or these seeeral com
plaints there must begood and sutncient cause and there upon we propose to give our readers a few plain, practical observations.
We admil, iinltesilatmgly, that there is a
considerable pressure in the money market, and in our opinion that pressure may be traced to the following causes:
1st. To the (iovernment order requiring all
payments for public lands in the west, to be made in specie. This order was undoubted
ly issued as a pioteclion against fraud upon
the part of speculators in Indian lands, but it
has had the cib ct of draining vast amounts ol
specie from all the Atlantic states, and there
by requiring the banks to be less liberal in their discounts.
2d. To the great multiplicity of banks in
every state in the union. Banks are, in many
refpecti, great evils. When money is easy, they discount freely, and induce men of limii ted capitKl to overtrade, and at the first symp
tom of a pressure, they arc the first to increase
it, by rejecting the most unexceptionable pa per. The capital of most of our banks is en
tirely too small for the amount of business
- - ...
they do in prosperous times, and having
scarcely cents in specie to represent the dol
lar in notes that they issue, they have really
no ballast to preserve their equilibrium in even a trilling blow of adversity.
3d. lo the mania for speculation in stocks, and the recent treat increase f bankine.
Rail-road and other companies. Works of
internal improvements have been projected too rapidly, and the hope of gain has induced
hundred to purchase stock who have no money to spare from their regular business. Bro
kers frequently join together and give stocks
a fictitious value, the consequence of which is
ithat unsuspecting individuals are tleeced, and
sometimes utterly ruined.
4th. To the neglect of agriculture and the
diversion of a large amount of manual labor
from farming to other interests. Agriculture
docs not, in general, receive its due propor
tion of attention. 1 here is scarcely a farm I in this state that produces more than two
thirds what it might be made to produce, if
suthcicnt labor and attention were bcctowe
npon it. Works of public improvements, canal, rail-roads, &zc. have given employment
to large number ol laborers, and induced hundreds and thousands of emigrants lo come
among us, and for this increase of population
there has not been a corresponding increase j in agricultural productions. Hence our sta
ple articles having enhanced in value.
5th, and lastlv, io the disposition to idle
ness mailesled by a large portion of the peo
ple in all our large cities. Philadelphia, lor
instance, is lull ol idlers well-dressed loafers
occupy our principal streets, and half fed, rag
ged loafers, may be lound in almost every
blind alley and public wharf. he latter Live

From the Phil. Saturday Chronicle GATHERINGS. From the Xote Book of an Lllr .Man. l.ct your conduct be such that even your
enemies shall not be able to malign )ou.
The barbarities of Thomas-Kouli-Kan in India b?came at length so rcvc.hii.s: that a Dervirh one day had the c mage to present him a mcmerinl couched in the I".. bowing thrms: " If thou ait a god, act likts a god; if thou art n: prophet, h ad us the way to salvation; if thou art a king. n;;ke the people h:ippy but do r:nt destroy tin in." '1 I e barbarian replied, " I am not a gcd, to act like a gd;. nor a prophet, to show jon the way to .-oka-lion; i.or am I a king te make the people. I am he whom God in his wrath has sent to visit the people, and to destroy." Coarage is so necessary a virtus that we should accustom ourselves to exercise it oil
little as well as on great occasions. It is not enough that we do good when the opportunity offers', we should seek opportunities to do good. Any man may correct his errors if he has the will to do it. In religion then are some things sosarred so delicate, and so myrteiiou. thai you should;
avoid disputing about them' with rogues, or, talking about I hem before fanatics.
