ried in their shame, u true, that she is
worse than poverty pefsan.hod.
We presume that We snail be told,
with much apparent triumph, by our op-
ponents, that all our reasoning applies
with much greater force to the Safe
Bank-but stop, we are not caught trip
ing yet, we beg our opponents to bear in
mind, that we promised to prove, not that
the State Bank was perfection itself, but
that it was organized on as good basis
as other banking Institutions that in
truth they were all based more or less
on credit. That credit is the very foun-
dation of the system, and that specie is
used as mere auxiliary, to assist in
sustaining that credit, and that the COM
munity have better security in the re-
sources pledged for the redemption Of
the State Bank paper, than most insti-
tutions afford, and equally as good as
that of the United States Bank. We
ask, if the United States Bank is not
empha,ically based on credit Whether
6-7 of its stock is not sheer credit !
Whether instead of its notes represent
ing specie, they are not in fact, the re-
preventative of the funded debt, and in
truth are only one species of debts re-
presenting another.
We beg leave then to ask, why may
not the state of Illinois employ its cre-
dit, as we'll as the United States, or any
of its sister states ? We are told of cons
tllutional objections, these we shall ex-
anime i'll the sequel, and we shall show
them to be not SO teuable, as some per-
sons contend. We are now only contend
ing for the policy of the measure, and
let 1t be borne in mind, that the bank
was established for the purpose ofreleiv-
ins the present ombar,assplents Of The
community within this state-tba, it was
not intended as perpetual measure Of
policy, but will be discontinued at the
expiration OF the time limited in its char
ter-that it was not contemplated for
the benefit of British capitalists, nor the
foreign, nor even the Atlantic merchants.
that it is what it actually purports to be,
measure of domestic relief, intended
purely for the benefit of the people Of
This state. The legislature did not lepis-
late Tor European, or other states, nor
was it thought advisable to consult the
Cham OF Tartary, nor the inhabitants of
Nootka Sound, whether it would be an
object of desire with them, nor whether
he notes would pass current with them,
but they believe with rational men, that
it will accomplish the desired relief.
We ask of It's opponents, who possess so
much sagacity and penetration, and who
seem to be such great adopts at pulling
down, and never building up, to what
measures they would have had recourse,
to produce that relief which they all
readily admit, was so essential To he oh
aimed. Ignorant and bigoted men in all
ages have contributed largely, to the de-
moition of the noblest works of art ant!
science, and have often laid waste the
airest portion of the globe; but man
llnd, are yet to be informed, how they
lave ever compensated the world for
heir acts of desolaton, or in what shape
hey have ever atoned FOR the gratiica-
ion OF their passions.

!
There never was, III The recollection
of our oldest mere hants, such state OF
mercantile embarrassment among CAPT
taists as at tins time. We daily hear of
men OF business taking up their bonds
months before they arc tiue--others loan
ing money at FIVE per cent per annum,
and buying stocks at such high prices,
that cannot, in all human probability,
yield more than about four per cent. per
annum. Our bank capital is principally
locked up, and the vaults of our banking
institutions are literally crammed with
precious metals. AT such a time, moth
ing could be more acceptable than re-
vival of commerce, which would give
employment TO the laboring classes, AND
put into circulation the immense capital
which is now of little use to the conmu-
nifty.

opportunity ofremindiag the governor of
the dispositionhe he. had voiced Of expedit-
ing ME. This was afforded me incidently
on the first inst when Mr.. Warner desired
me to present lin as the commercial agent
Of the United Safes. After his exceliency
gave this gentleman to understand, very
polntedlY, thathe could not recognize him.
or view him in any other light than as a
merchant divested OF all public character,
| observed TO him, that, as the convoy
had sailed, hoped bis excellency would
enable me to proceed, upon which was
told, that he was anxious TO be disencum-

was making by bis Secretary, with whom
the matter now was, and by whom | should

GOODNESS REWARDED.

We observe in the Boston Centinel, some
extraordinary accounts which happened a.
bout seventy years ago, OF some Young
men, in the humble walks Of lite. rising to
great eplr ence-and all no doubt, in con-
sequence oil behaving as young men ought
to behave-pure, correct, moral, and hons
est IN all their transactions. One was a
young b s'unian, who behaved so we'll, that
his master, ia merchant oil this town. sent
him on all important agency before he was
of age-alterwards gave him one OF his
daughters in marriage, when he proceeded
10 london, and was settled there as agent
OF his father in-laW.-and such was
his emlnence, that he accumulated large
fortune iD less than 2U } ears, was chosen a
member ot Parliament, and Lord Mayor oil
London. Another young man, named
Hope, born at Quincy, came to Boston to
live with his uncie-and at the age CT IL,
he went to London, and from thence 10 Am
sIerdam, where he became the greatest
merchant and banker ever known before
or since There Is no person who does
business in any part of Europe, but what
the name OF Hope is familiar to, as a great
banker. Another young BOst0nian was

dies, had the misfortune to have his leg bit
off by shark. He recovered his health,
and finally settled in London, and became
Lord Mayor Of that city. AT the time of
his death, he was Commissary General OF
the whole British army with salary OF
5OU0l. per annum. We mention these
things as stimulus for young men to be-
have well, as there is no knowing how our
lot may be cast in our journey through
life. G.
