were left for them to pursue--one was that they
Ibauld refuse topay specie for their bills. and
thereby save the merchaiits and themselves from

plated eliect. A degree of coulideiice was iri-
otamaneously diliused throogliout the whole

pects ofthe country looked brighter and brighter
every day. The suspension ofspecie payments
developed still further the desperate character or
the spirit of radicalism. The ollicials through-

destroy their influence and ability to benefit. the.

tecting the banks and restoring confidence. ‘the

to Executive agents. Such is precisely the
sclieiiie proposed. and wliicli is called it denta-
cratic measure. lfsucli a measure is riecessziry.
could not :1 herrertirrieforits proposal have been
uiloptetl. when the country was not oppressed
with the prostratiou of credit. the rtiiri of mer-
clizints. and the fuiltire of banks. The manner of
iritroducing the tiieasure. the character of it and
the time w/rcnit is forceii upon us, are all charac-
teristic ol the source from whence it origiiiutetl.
One of the leading fi.-alures ofilie scheme is.
that the collection oftlie government dues and all
its experiuitiircs are to be tirade in gold and silver
only. By this means all the fiiritls which go
rliroiigii the Treasury depurtnieirt riiust be in
gold and silver. By referring to the last annual
report of the Secretary of the Treasury, it will
be seen. that the ballaricc which was csrirriatetl
would be in the 'I‘reustr:'_v on the 1st day of
Jarrriary 1833. amountetl to more than tliirt_v-
four millions oftlolltrrs and that the expenditures
for the year previotis. rtmoiiutetl to more thirty-
five tiiillioiis of dollars. Thus it will be seen
that there was in the Treastir_v. during the year
1837. itiure than sixty nine millions qfc/altars.-
\Ve need look no further. into that report. for
evidences of the wfitrkctlricss and folly of the
scheme. Sixty-riiue millions of dollars and all
in. specie. as it must have been had the Sub-
Tre-asury Scheme. during that year, been in ftill
operation. Everyone knows that at this rate
there would be hardly specie enough in the
whole country to do the business of tire govern-
ment alone. There would be none for the peo-
ple, none for the banks. Under such circum-
stances tlic banks would never be able to resume
specie payment. —
Another feature, which is still more obnoxious
than the one referred to, is that all the funds of
the government are to be in the custody ofiutli-
vitluals appointed by the Executive. Here the
door is opened wide for official patronage-
executive patronage against which the democ-
rtir.-y have always coritended. It is an evil
against which democrats cannot too vigilaritly
guard. for it is asourcc from whence the liberties
oftliecoiintry. are more in danger. than from any
other. The scheme as proposed, will create a
new army "of olfice holders, who will darken
every section of our land. It will place in the
hands of tho Execiiiive a power -w/tic/r cannot be
controlled by the people. A system of similar
t:.harat:ter, tiow prevails in France, and the
huances of that C’|llllll’y, though controlled by
one man. are in the custody of more than u
huirdretl thousand otfice holders, who are all de-
pendent for their so isisteuce and for their corr-
tinuance in olfice, upon the pleasure ofllie King.
So it will be in the United States, iftliis system
H perriitttetl to go into operation. The city of
W'itslttnt_'-:on will be the point. where all power
will cortceritrure. and a, iitiridreil thousarid sub-
siiliaries. will be scattered all over the Uuiori.
who will always be ready to do the bidding or
their riiaster. l/rouglz it should be to enslave their
fellow crtzzcns. The democratic party were op-
posetl to the United States Bunk. because lllt‘\
tielreyed it possessed too much politisal powel,
that it exercised an unbecoming influence iri elec-
tions. and was seeking to obtain the power til
zritiking and unrnaltirig Presidetits. They shuulu
:ippose the Sub-Treasury sclicrne-for preclsc-l\

tive would notonly have in his power, the ability
to make and unrnnlte oflieers, but be Ultlgltl,

At a rnecting of Delagtitcs from the several

held at Durieu oit the 22d inst.. for the purposo
“ Oh dear.’ what carrthe matter b¢."?'
It is now about six weeks since the Loco-Fr
cos of this county. held a- grand potnoro at'Do‘n-
bury. to make preparations for the grad! war-
dancc which is to come off on the first-.Mo'udly
of April next. Every thing promised well,
save that their numbers were somewhat reduced
by a certain “disorganizing" disease. termed
conservatism. The great medicine man. whose
main business it is to keep ." tho party” in I
“healthy majority." ‘was somewhat troubled
therein; and after looking marvellously win
for half an hour, very aagely concluded. that
they all wanted tloctoring. And. inasmuch as
obnoxious potions are most easily administered.
by mixing them up with some palatable article
of food. he recommended, that the dose which
he was about to prepare. should be concealed in
some savory viand, and administered by some
other hand than his own. The medicine was
all that he could furnish._. The council thereup-
on associated two of their number with him to
assist in the preparation of the dose, one 0!
them to mix it up with whatever he thought but
suited to the taste ofthe patients. and the other.
(whose strait-forward consistency, and political
honesty placed him above all suspicion of any
intention to deceive) to administerit. But not-
withstanding all his sagacioua manor.-uvering_
and the length of time that has elapsed since.
this scheme was cortcocted-—-the matcblcss sane
rive has not yet been exhibited—the bolus ye“
remains in the Doctor‘sgallipot. and the haples
party stillcontinue exposed to the infection or
the disease which is making such havoc in their
ranks.
In this unfortunate dilemma. lturitanitv_dic-

iiiediciue. and having a small lot of that oom-
inodiry on hand. we most cheerfully tondcrit
for the use of such of the Doctor's patient; 3;
may require something to allay their favor. until
he finds time to rnantifactureliis grand panacea.
What we olfer. is nothing but the genuine, pure;
unadulterated article; and though. it is now more
than two years old. it has not changed in tho
least. and we hope that the spirit of it has not
entirely evaporated in ouratteuipt to boil it down
for preservation.
