 The Public DepOsites.
From Ate Globe, Sept. g.

1t has been generally known for some months past that the propriety of withdraw ing the public deposites from the Bank of the United States was unde CT consid eration, and engaged much of the attention of the President and of the different branches of his Cabinet, all of whom had been called upon by the President to assist him in his deliberations on this subject. After ve- Ty full and careful eS aTBinatioT, the PTesi- dent come to the conclusion that the pub lie deposites ought to be changed to the State Banks, and hls opinion was commu- nicated in writing to his Cabinet on We'd nesday last, at a meeting held specially for that purpose, and the facts and reasons on which it as founded. As public attention has been drawn to this subject, 1t IS deem ed proper, in order to prevent misunder- standing or misrepresentation, to lay be- fore the people the communication made by the President as above mentioned; and a copy has been furnished to us for that purpose, which we now proceed to publish. Read to the Cabinet on the lSth of Septenr-
 Der, 1883.
 Having carefully and anxiously consl- dered all the facts and arguments, which have been submitted to hlm, relative to a removal of the public deposites irofn the Bank of the United States, the President deems it his duty to communicate in this manner to his Cabinet the final conciu- sions of his own mind, and the reasons on wiilioi, they arc founded, ,n ord e--.c p. them in durable form, and to prevent mis- conceptions.
 The Presidents convictions Of the dan gerous tendencies of the Bank of the Uni ted States, since signally illustrated by it's own acts, were so overPowerlng when he entered upon the duties of Chef Magis- trate, that he felt 1t his duty, notwithstand- ing the objections of the friends by whom he was surrounded, to avail himself of the first occasion to call the attention of Con eress and the people to the question ofits re charter. The opinions expressed ID his Annual Message of December, 1929, were reiterated in those of December 1880 and 1881; and in that of 1880, he 1 threw out for consideration, some sugges- tions in relation to substitute.

Of the Rev. Messr,. MerriIIs for saving

of the Rev. Messrs. MerrilIs for saying
that 1t was a 'most righteous verdict"
IL is true, that after this verdict was
pronounced by the Jury. the counsel for
MIR. Avery made motion in arrest Of
judgment on point Of special pleading.
But even this ground was abandoned,
and the maiter settled before the time
arrived for n hearing on the motion.
The object Of it, therefore, was clearly
10 gain time. The SANDER charged upon
MIR. Avery was proved To be a wan,on,
malicions. false and wholly unprovokef.
No circumstances appeared at the trial
To justify, or even paliaie this dastardly,
and wicked attack upon the character az
one Who was an utter stranger to Mr..
A., and whose only offence was that of
seceedlng from the great body of Epis-
copal Methodists. and organising an In
dependent Methodist Church and socie-
~, in Mr.. Avery's neghborhood. The
object of Air. Avery seems clearly to have
been to prostrnte and ruin his opponent,
and thereby to destroy the christion So
cieiy he had laborcd to unite and build
up. The Rev. Messrs. MerrlIs were
present at this trial, heard the evidence,
and. knew the result, and yet have taken
upon themselves to swear, that this pro.
secution "resnlted in nothing to impeach
A s. conduct"
Has il then come to this, that il is no
stain upon a christian minister's charac-
ter TO he convicted ofuitering falsehood
and groundless calumny? of propagat-
ing malicious SANDER against a brother!
Is it not robbery To take from an inno-
cent man, the dearest and best of his
earthly possessions. Is he, whose duty
and business it is, 10 enforce the precepts
of the penceable religion of the holy Jo-
sus, aud to preach charity, and all long
suffering, 10 CRAFTY his own malignant
passions in traiuclng his brother and
neiglbor.
Let then those Rev, gentlemen look
into that holy religion, which they pro-
fess to teach, and see what St. Paul says
of the slanderer, md what St. Peter
says of the "man that bri2lcth not his
tongue" Can mans "moral, christian
and ministerial character" he truly said
10 be "unspo,ted and unbemished, /"
when the records Of our highest judicial
tribunal show, that lie has heen accused
and convicted Of an offence against the
peace and laws OF the land !-agaInst
the rights Of individuals Ian offence o.
riginnIing in falschood and malice, and
designed to blight the fair fame of an un-
offending man.
Let these Rev. gentlemen settle this
question for themselves. Their consci-
ences are in their own keeping. The
slanderer, in the estimation of all good
men, is no better than tho robber or
assassin, and it will require something
more, ihan the ipse dixit of two holy
men in holy Office to overrule,public O.
pinion--or tho laws Of the land. And
before the har Of public opinion, we
leave these Reverend gentlemen, and
Mr.. Avery also. TO receive such judgmen,
as their respective casas may deserve.

The 57,h anniversary of American lnde-

The 57th anniversary of American lnde-
pcndence was celebrated in this town on
Thursday last, by the usual manifestations Of
public rejoicing. The exercises Of tae day
were very Interesting, and though wanting
the charms of novelty. were ofa high order
aud very crejitablc TO the eeyeral perform
ers.
We were particularly gra,i6cd with the o.
ration pronounced by Mr.. Thomas Hunter,
soa ofthe H,n. William Hunlcr ofthis town.
Thongh upon a much hacknied subject, 1t
vas n highly finished production, evlncing a
roach and maturity Of intellect quite unusual
on snch oecnsions, unless 10 the efforts OF vc-
ieran statesmen, who have made the politics
of great and rival nations the subject OF their
serious study aud meditation. We observed
NO osientatious display OF historical scraps
culled perhaps from an English Reader, no
malignant sneers at opposing political creeds
uttered in 'se impotent and puerile spirit
of froihy defamation; but the reflections
ofa refned and cultivated intellect--fhe eff
fns,ons Of chastc yet fervd Imagination,
delivered in al r!oqnrnt and manly style to a
numerous an1 deeply interested audience.
Mr.. HJnter IL is true, has enjoyed peculiar
advantages in regard 10 education, but he
has not as il would seem and s too often the
case, neglected 10 avail himself Of or abused
those advantager. To the acquisition Of the
college he has added the no less useful know.
ledge Of the traveiler-of one who has visited
the most enlightened, aud studied the man
ncrs, customs and policy o: at least two of
the leading nations OF Europe. Unshackled
by debasing p,ejudiccs, unipaoenced by un-
due national aniipathies, and standing aloof,
By the nature and character Of his profess
sional pursuits, from those bfgoited prepos-
sessions which too often enter into the feel
ings of our 4lh of July Orators, his object
seems to have been that which is and eve r
should be the object Of the phllan,hrop;st and
the patriot, the triumph Of truth and of sound
principles throughout our country and
throughout tho world.
Several original odes written by citizens of
this town for tie occasion were sung during
the exercises with much spirit and good
taste and in style not often equalled, by
the choir under the direction Of Messrs. At
kinson and Stacy.
