COMMUNI ATED.
Messrs. Editors: As the present Inferior Court of
Bihh county wau elected as a reform Court on an ex
citement artfully gotten up against the old Court, by
false and slanderous statements in the public papers and
otherwise; and as three years have now elapsed since |
{ the election, it is certainly time that the great benefit j
i to result from the change should begin to appear, and ev- j
er l therefore propose very briefly, as a citizen of the !
county, having a common interest with others incoun- j
ty allain-, to examine into the advantages or disadvan- f
tates resulting to the county from the election of the |
I present court. In this examination, as 1 have had no
connection w.th either ol the courts, and bear no rela-
I turn to the memliers of either court, other than a coin-
I nion citizen, I shall endeavor to lay aside all prejudice
and bring to the examination the utmost candor.
The first hue and the old Court, was)
I started in consequence of the appointment of one of the j
members of the court as county Treasurer. It was al- 1
leged that such appointment gave the court a better ,
chance to commit fraud. Now, I frankly confess,:
that I have always been opposed to the Court's keep- j
ingthe county treasure among themselves, and 1 do
think there ought to be a regular county Treasurer, se- (
lecteil from the community, and bound with suitable
bonds, who should be skilled in accounts, and ot un- i
yielding integrity and character, so that one party might
keep the other in check, and a correct knowledge of
our county finances could at all times be had. Hut how
stands th s matter with the pr sent court ? Have tlu-y
reformed the abuse of power which was alleged against
the old court l Have they appointed a Treasurer dis
connected with the courtJ answer nu. And I do
this on the authority of one of the present court, who,
a lew days ago, stated in my presence, that there was
no County Treasurer, hut the county funds were or-
■ dered to be deposited in a certain Bank Agency, winch
I was under the management of one oj the Justins of
■ the Court. Now 1 ask in all candor, what difference
I d<e- it make to the public, whether this Honorable
■ Justice keeps the account on the hooks of h.s Hunk or
I on his priV ile books —it the funds are under his con-
I trol, it is all the same to the public—and the public wil|
I must assuredly hold them responsible for the money—
li. e u the Couit ever comes to a shewing, and can be
I made accountable at law. I hear great complaints,
I Messrs Editors, of the new court about this matter.
It is said that they issue their orders on the County
‘1 tea surer, hut as there is no Treasurer, there is no
I one to lake the orders up. and in this way the debts of
I the Ci may remain unpaid, and many people thii.k their
I conduct amounts to repudiation, and that the conduct
I of the corn tm this particular, is decidedly woise than
■ P iof toe old,plain cant, whic.i acted as I fully be-
I Eve. m every instance without concealment. It is of
I l ■ •” to say tiiut there is no money in the Treasury,
I 1 ‘* th i the reason >s, they cannot get it out n, the
I Tax Cdiector. This statement is incredible. We nil
I ki iv, there is too much intelligence and legal knowl-
I edge in tiie pres.nl c art, lor Uie Collector to fi>ol them

I bulging huii to tutus, even if he were disposed to de-

I win wen knows that sune of the court are not only m-
I le.ugeiit, but veiy sagacious in money matters.
T lie next charge against me old coin t, was combi-
I nation and baud n the management of the pauper fund.
I Tins was a giave efeuge, and i shad ever believe, it
was gi tteu up for political effect, to destroy din niHu
i eiic leu turn men. The universal practice of the of J
e'U.i, us mr as i know or beli'-ve, in letting contracts,
was in conformity to law . by offering them to the loic
ent bidder, aitr du y advertising the same in the pub
j lie gam ties, ll undu tins system, contracts were not
run low enough, it certainly was no fault of the court.
I they could not compel (leoplc to bid. Ami it is high
I bine, since the excilemcnta have passed uway, thut u
returning sense ol justice should bring amends to (hose
gentlemen. In reference to the poor house—the old
court kept it up lor several years. To do this, they
employed a Steward and appointed Commissioners un
; dei the law regulating the B'bb county Poor Asylum.
I 1 heae Coimnissioiieis were selected Horn ihe best citi
zens, anu their characters were a sultu'ient guaranty
hhai Uieie should lx? no mismanagement of the trust
[fioiar there was no blame attached to the court. But
they found the expense under tins plan, so oppressive
on the county, that they very prudently concluded to
change the plan, and let out the contract to die lowest
bidder. Accordingly u was advertised m the newspa
pers, that sealed picposals would be received for keep
ing the Poor House.
I he contract was let for several years in this way at
a diminished expense to the county, and there never
was the least complaint, until it was taken by Ur.
lat sons. \\ hat tendered these sudden coinpliiurs re
markable, wat the fact, that this last mentioned ou
tran was nearly a thousand dollars less ihun uny for
mer oue, and much less lhan it cost the ooumy to keep
up the Poor House, under the old plan of employing a
Steward. And if there was any failure on the jiart of
the contractor to do Ins duty, it wus an easy matter for
tin* Board ot Coimnissn tiers to have detected it, and
lo *“[ ve demanded a foifeiture of his bond, which was

yearly, th in that such profits and money-capital should
i e kepi in the United States, as far as possible, lo go on
reproducing wealth, and extending employment, com-
I h>rt, and competence into every nook and corner ol the
I Union. Th-- fuels are these :
1 There was spun ofVotton yarn in Eng

Or at 400 lbs. per bale, equal to 885,729
bales; and. at 10 cents per pound, the va
lue of the cotton before manufacture, in
cluding waste, as above put down, the cost
ol the cotton used lor these exports was $35,429,174 20
It should be borne in mind that, as so<sn as a cargo of
cotton enters Liverpool harbor, or other place of dis
( barge in Great Britain, labor and capital begin to de
rive support and benefit from it in its accumulating val
ues, commencing with pilotage, and going on wnli ex
penses ol bonding, labor ot discharging, carting, d*>ck
dues, warehouse rent, fire insurance, mending bags,
Slc ; freight, carting, &c. to the manufacturing places,
and onward through all the processes of manu.acture
and finish, with costs of cases, nails, paper, &c., and re
conveyance hack again in goods to the shipping ports,
and concluding with the charges of the sh.pmuu of the
manula lured cottons. One can hardly conceive of the
multitudes in Gieat Britain whom a hale of cotton helps
to support or enrich, in one form or another, from the
day of its arrival to that of its reshipment to a foreign
port, in the various forms of its manufacture.
Now, the declared value of t ie foregoing exports, as
given us by the custom-house returns of Great Britain,
is the enormous sum of.. $112,631,516 80
From which, deducting the cost of the cotton,

to the labor and capital ol Great Britain, and is all paid
to her by other people. It s the profitable employment
ot iiianuiactunng those goods that she exports and seifs to
other countries, esti ating them at their declared vaiue
in Gie t Britain at the lime ol ex|>ori. Be ides tins gain,
it is luir to conclude there is some lurther profits to the

A -Meeting of l*ntriarelis.
The meeting between the Hon. John Quincy Ad
ams and the Hon Albert Uallatin.at the Historical So
ciety (looms, on Tuesday night, seems to have created
a strong impression. When the two venerable men
met and grasped each other by the hand, a “ tablet of
unutterable thoughts” was plainly traced upon their sev
veni countenances, and it was with evident reiuctnnce
that they loosened their friendly hold. Each of these
men is upwards of eighty yea's old, mul yet their minds
are active ns they wsrs fifty years ago, Excepting Mr.
Clay, they are the only Americans now living who plac
ed their signatures to the treaty of (.bent, more than
thirty years ago. Adams, Gallatin, and Clay,—are the
uwtt, and they are among the greatest men ol the age ;
ami all of them Whigs. A pleasant thou ;ht indeed,
’ ‘*hen we are rejoicing over the triumph of their princi
ples ill the Empire State ol the Union.—. Veto York

When Mr. Moody was on a journey, I think in the

Sabbath with him, il agreeable. The ntan appeared
very glad to see him, and said, “ I should be very glad
to have you preach lor me to-morrow, but I teel ‘ishaui-

“ Why our people have got into such a habit of going
out before meeting is closed, that ltscems to he nn im
position ou a stranger” It that is all l must and will
stop and preach lor you,” was Moody’s reply. When

assembly and sai.l,“ iny hearers ! 1 am going to Bpeak
