A I'll.!. IN KkLATION TO tub SaVINf.jJ J>a:.k> or 1 'ennnvj,vania.?.Mr. Senator Decticrt lias introduced a hill into the Senate of this State in regard to unclaimed deposits in savings banks and institutions of that character. lie proposes tliat when the aeeuniuhitions oi saving hanks and institutions exceed in any live years fifteen per cent, of the liabilities, the overplus shall be divided among the de positors. This means that the profits made upon the investment, of deposits shall b. Stared among the dejx)sitors, which Is fairer than giv ing them to the Shite, as has been occasionally priqawed. The bill also con tains a proviso that all deposits unclaimed foi thirty years shall be paid to the State, sul.jei t to the right of redemption within ten y, .{?>. In regard to this we suggest that the p. riod named as the limit for the continuance oi tiie deposit may in some cases be entirely too short. Among the depositors in such institutions are children encouraged by their parents in habits of saving and economy, some of whom commence their dejioxits at so early an age that it might bo of advantage to them not 10 disturb them while they were yet young. A person making a deposit at twenty years ol age would forfeit it if not withdrawal at the age of fifty. The period during which the deposit could remain might tie made longer with advantage. Neither do we perceive why, when the deposit is paid over to the Slate, the real owner shall forfeit it entirely unless be applies for it within ten years. The State can have no equitable claim to the money at any time, the only ground for its l'orlciture ought to be the lucl that there is no living owner who can have a claim upon it.?d'hilaUt'lpfua Inquirer, January :iti. Tm: Suakpest Bank Swiniu.e yit Recomd ei>.?The Kansas City New gives the follow ing account of the latest swindle on record: A well-dressed gentleman, w ho for identi fication we will will Smith, entered the bank, and in a straightforward, business-like man ner desired the bank to advance him the sum of vvSOO tui a draft drawn by a banking firm in a neighboring State. The parties being strangers, the bank informed him they could not advance the money. i% Well," said Smith, "it will make no ditl'erence. You can take the draft and send it forward for collection, and I w ill wait until you get returns." ThF was agreed to by the bank,and the draft was sent forward for collection. In due time the bank received a handsomely gotten up draft on a banking-house in New York, with the proper Government stamp printed in, for the t>uiu of $800; which amount was duly paid over to Smith, who departed. The draft was sent to New York, and in a few days the bank received the consoling in formation that the whole transaction was a complete and successful fraud and swindle. This is a game which could easily have boon played upon the most careful banking house in the country. A Machine with Brains.?The Census (Mice has now a large force employed in tabulating the age and sex schedules. A tallying machine, invented by Mr. C. W. ScaUm, lately in the Census Office, but uow chief clerk of the Tension Bureau, lias been found to be a great service iu this work, and has been gradually introduced till nearly one hundred are now in operation. Daily records of work are kept, and it appears tliat with the machines twice the amount is accomplished by the same number ot* clerks that can be done without them. Yesterday in one of the divisions 109,000 names were tallied by forty-five men with the machines, and some of the men were operating them for the first time. The machine is very simple and inex pensive, and will advance the completion of the census work by several months.? Warh irujlon correspondence New York Times, January 27. Suooic the Wrong Boy.?In the southern section of the city on Monday afternoon uhout dusk, says the Baltimore American, n lady was greatly annoyed bv several urchins ringing her door-bell, and" who, taking to fhsir heels, enjoyed the joke immensely when I she answered the summons.. Several tiimn | she tttnie down stairs, but was. always t*?o j late to effect the capture of one. At last sue | planned a scheme. She stood at the head of the steps and awaited their coining. Ptd^' soon a step was heard on the porch, and in a moment the bell was given a vigorous J('? ** I see you, you little rascal !v the lady said, and rushing down stairs caught the unresist ing figure bv the coat collar and gave luni a good shaking. When her strength was ex hausted and she was hoarse with excitement she looked into the face of the object of hei wratli and discovered, to ber intense horror, that it was the diminutive minister of her church, who was looking as red in the face, to use her piscatorial description of h?m to * friend, as a boiled lobster. A few wordsof explanation made the matt' r all light, and it was soon forgotten. Virginia In Georgia. Fvin. f from tit" nririrc* Ft.-.te Knrlnoer B. W. FroM .VXcn J ot tl.cClty Halt, In Mwn. on I he l7Th ??f ?l.?iiu.try, upon the Atlantic ami Great Western < anal prcji'ct. Colonel Froliel said : Just here I will an | swer a question wliich has K-cn frequently asked me?viz., "If in our application to Congress for aid to this crnvit enterprise a strong opposition to It might not be encoun tered from New York and li'oin Virginia?t he former on account of her Frio canal and t he latter on account of the James River and K uiawha canal Many persons seem to) think that because New York eitv has en joyed a monopoly of western trade that therefore she would look with jealous eyes njK'ii any attempt t > build up a rival line. 1 do not regard this canal as the rival ot the New York route. The Erie canal will alwavs command the tratio ol' western IN ltn sylvaniu?at least all that portion near the great lakes?northern Ohio, Indiana,Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, eastern Minnesota, the Canadas, and the traile of flic North Pacific railrorul, where it is built, and this trade is annually on the increase. m> that if that portion derived from ^t. bonis was with drawn its place would soon be supplied h\ the iliel'ea-ed trade of the Mates jllst men tioned. That the building of the canal would tie of vast advaiiliige to Now York city, nobody can doubt, and an equal ad vantage *o the New England Slates. The New York line is well established, and it will always command the traffic that legitimately belongs to it, and that is more than it can accommodate. \\ ith 1he\ irginia canal, however, it is dilferent. That, work is not yet oomph ted, and they, loo, are asking aid (if the Federal (iownunent to assist in opening il to the Ohio. That line, like 1 lie Georgia line, l"ok,? to trade ol the W c<t, and it will without doubt have West Virginia and all that portion of Pennsylvania drained by the ??Jiio, ?:l! of Southern Ohio. Northern Kentucky, a large portion of Indiana and Illinois, and the cities of Pittsburgh, Louis ville. and Cincinnati; while to the Georgia line will lielong YVest Virginia, a portion of Kentucky, Fast and West Tennessee, a por tion of the Carolina?, North Alabama and Mississippi, and the trade which cent res at M. Louis. I was in Washington city the greater por tion of last winter, and conversed freely with northern and vvo-tem men, and did not meet with anybody opposed to our great Georgia prop-el. The western men cordially approved of its rwi-fnidlcn as filling the i i;>t great need of t heir >?'ettoll. [ had ben t"hl I hat Virginia would op pose it as a rival to her great project. But in-lead, I found the Virginians ready and willing to ah! us. Why, gentlemen, the s -nator from V irginia. Judge Johnston, of i -ted to prepare a bill for us, and when it wis prepared he presented it to the Senate, sating that lie had volunteered his services b -cause Georgia had no representative in that b ;dy to urge thi* important work upon the t cut ion of Congress. Virginia Kent other men to Washington to aid Georgia in this m itter. and among them Colonel Carrington, who is so intimat ely connected with her pub lie works. There was no rivalry there but such as generous and r.obie spirits nrgfht imitate. Ami just such rivalry as wc should have expected from Old Virginia. Yes, glorious Old Virginia. Glorious in the past 1 Glorious in her mighty deeds of self-sac rificing heroism in the war of Independence! Glorious ill the names she has given to the v\ oiid! Glorious in her deeds of generosity! Glorious in her advocacy of right 1 Glorious in her adherence to principle! Glorious in her unsullied honor! And thrice glorious in (lie silence with which she hears her losses and her wrongs! Stripped of power, stripped of influence, with her wealth destroyed, and h t homes-?those proud old homes whose m 'inory is associnb d with virions of open h uided hospitality?in ruins, her heart lis made dc-elato, and her fields a prowling wilder ness. She has borne her wretchedness and poverty without a murmur, without a re proach,and wil lioutan uttered regret! From Yorktown to Appomattox her history* is glorious with her deeds. From Washington to Lee the national record is illuminated with the deeds of her children. The birth-place and the home of Washington and ot Robert F.

A Boo Which DoesNot Foughta.v Injcry. There is a large Newfoundland (log in this city, about ten years old, which is doubtless uim of the most knowing specimens of the canine family living. W hen it was about six months of age, a couple of young men, in order to have a little fun, tied a tiu kettle to Its tail and sent it running through the streets. It was sport for the boys, but the act was never forgotten by the dog. Till this day it shows signs of displeasure at the sight of either of those young men. One of them removed from the place, and several years after the tin kettle affair lie was visiting in the city, ami called at the residence of the dog's owner. The dog hearing the voice of the young man inside the house, resorted to a number of devices to gain admission. Fpuii being admitted, it sprangforthe throat of the visitor, with jaws extended. The family interfered, of course, and the dog was removed from the house. From that day (when the kettle was tied to its tail) to litis, neither of those young men can enter the gate lending to the house if the dog is at home. On one occasion a VilUVU ill UIC ha to eat, and w:ls plentifully supplied by the good lady of the house. 'While passing out through the yard, the beggar threw away some of the food, the dog saw it, and hiking the unthankful solicitor of alms by the leg of his pantaloons, walked him hurriedly out through the gate. Nn beggar is permitted by that dog to enter the gate since. A negro once kicked this dog, and it lias had such a disliking for all persons of color since that not oue, with its permission, is allowed on the premises. A few years since the owner of tho dog was taken sick and died. The dog was most deeply affected by the event, and refused to Le comforted for many days and weeks thereafter. When the bell was tolled lor the funeral the dog seemed to understand its mournful import, and from that day to this the tolling of the bell causes the dog to break foith in most dismal wail iitBridgeport {Conn.)

Wigfall, one ol the leading secessionists of Texas and the South, felt, after Lee's surrender, some what embarrassed as to bis corporeal safety in a land then in possession of his enemies, lie loll Richmond in disguise, and travelled on mulcliack, alone, for Texas.

A few years ago I strolled along the sea shore at St, Andrews with Robert Chambers, and heard him speak of the days when lie sat beside Walter Scott in this very room. I seemed to look into the great man's eyes and hear his happy voice as 1 looked into the eyes and beard the voice of one who learned from Scott what untiring industry joined to talent could accomplish. And it was with peeulun interest that I rend in Chambers s Journal, two rears ago, those words: "I know no brighter picture in the hist ory of genius than this of Sir Walter Scott sitting down to his morning task dressed in the grocn vohet shooting-jacket of a Scotch bird, wiilii las books and papers around him on the desk and 011 the door, his favorite hound eyeing him from the rug. a couple of spaniels gam boll in" with his children in the g.uden, and the Hongs of birds pouring in through his half-open window. Scott knew nothing of those feelings of irritation that make composition a torment to s'j many men. JI is study was a! ways open to hi- children no hss than to Jiis greyhound, ile never considered their tattle as any dis turbance; they went and came as pleased theirfancv. lie was always ready to answer f iicir questions; and when they, unconscious how lie was engaged, entreated liim to lay down his pen and tell theinastory, lie would take them on his knee, repeat a ballad or a legend, kiss them, and set them down again to^their marbles or nine-pins, and resume his labor as if refreshed by the interruption. Even when we remember that lie Lad, by 1 advice of liis physician, Ceased from "Lengthening h|<; day jjy stealing a few hours from the night,*' and learned that it is better to burn day light from f> tq, 0 in the morning I ban lamp light from 11 to at night, after Byron': fashion. If must remain a marvel how he .mild manage to accomplish so much in liousc perpetually full of visitors, and a ncigl borhood where his every step was waylaid by lion-hunters. Anne Scott states that there were on one occasion thirteen ladies* maiiD in the house; and Eockha't mentions sixteen uninvited parties coining in one day. CadcP, one of Con-table's partners, expressed to Sett his wonder that lie could write at all. "I know," lie said, ?< that you contrive to get a few hours in your own room, and that may do for the mere pen work; but when is Jr that you think'/'" "Oh," said .Scott, "I lie simmering over things an hour or so before I get up; and there's the time I am dressing to overhaul my half-sleeping, half-waking projet de chapitrc ; and when 1 get the paper before me it commonly runs off pretty easily. Resides, I often take a doze in The plantations; and while Tom marks out a dike or a drain as I have directed, one's fancy may be running its ain rigs in some other world."?From ihc " Scot I Centenary at Ed inburgh,'"' by M. 1). Comcay, in Harper's Ma got iuc for February, A Ji'ky of Peers.?There dwelt some years ago in Bourbon eoiintv, Ky;, it (Ifiuikeii; worthless, onc-cycd fellow named C . whose cliiel occupations were getting tipsy and lighting. There had just been elected a new prosecuting attorney, who was entitled lo a part of thelinas which might be imposed on the malefactors of Bourbon, and lie de termined to squelch old C . He did not wait long for an opportunity to have him ai re-ted. B , the constable, said, as it was au important case, ho wanted about three days to get ah appropriate jury to try it. On the third day the new attorney was in formed that things were ready at the oourl hohsCi There was the judge, and behind him the constable. Oni one side sal old eye eyed C ; on the other, the twelve jury men, "jess like liim," on benches forming a triangle, each with a plug of tobacco and jack-knife, the gift of the constable, whittling away, and, according to order, spitting to the centre. The astonished prosecutor looked at the jury and exclaimed : " Where did the constable get this jury?" Tiie constable quietly replied: "I thought the prisoner was entit led to be tried by a jury of his peers, nud I've been out three days limiting 'em up. I've got twelve here,but if you don't like 'em JL'\e got twelve more out side waiting." The prosecutor looked out and saw seated on the fence twelve more dittos, similarly equipped and employed. He turned to the court in undisguised wrath and sud: " I'll dismiss this case!" The constable wrote his return on the war rant thus : "Dismissed by the county attor ney on sight of the jury," and so it stands recorded to this day. The prisoner was dis charged, and left tlie court-house rejoicing at having been deprived ol his constitutional right of being tried by the previously-men tioned citizens.?Editor's Drawer, in har per's Maga zine for February. The Nashville Union and American lells the billowing: "A young man about eigh teen years of age made his first visit, to Nash ville a few days ago, and registered at the Maxwell. Having some business to trans act, and many things to see, he did not retire until a late hour. A servant took him to the elevator, and telling him to roll in, went to get the conductor, who was in one of the imrlors with a friend. When tliey came I Kick they found the young man half un dressed, and before they hud time to say any thing he commenced talking about the little room and the funny bed."
