 startling fact came out in evidence before the grand jury. It has been known tor length
 Oftime, that early last spring, very extensive
 cOunterieiting establishment was discovered
 and broken up near the NeongO Spring m this
 State. It had entwined in it's fold many citi- zens heretofore unsupported, and until the publication of the testimony, conjecture was
 busy in probing out the cause of their seem- ing aberration. This, with thousand other evils can now be plainly traced to the spirit of party" A citizen of the city of St. Louis testified that he had been consistent and
 faithful member of the Jackson party-that
 he generally supported the old Hero in every
 thing, and particularly on the subject of his
 opposition to the Bank. He was applied tO
 by the nOtOrinns Stephen v. Foreman, who
 was an applicant for the office of Secretary of State under Governor Miller, to join the
 counterfeiters. The application was made in
 a political sense, and in the name Ofthe party. They wele both opposed to the Bank-and desired its overthrow; the counterfeit notes l were very well executed, and would easily pass among the people as genuine-a cry had l been already raised that the bank was crossing good and genuine paper, in spirit of gain and in proportion to tbe increase of counter feit paper, would be the excitement of the people if properly and judiriously managed In this way, it was argued, the people could make, money for themselves-run down the popularity of the Bank, and advance the pros- 1 perity of Gen. Jackson's administration. It was also argued there could be no more harm in this than any other political manGuvre; but the citizens of St. Louis testified that he refused the proposition. and kept 1t secret.
 Thus it has at last appeared in evidence, that 1 1.-the NeOngo gentlemen had been successful, the bank of the United States was to have been put down in this and other Western States. for crossing good paper! The people recOrct the outcry which was raised upon this subject about year ago. but since the de- tection ofthe gentlemen poiiticians.this branch of the opposition to the Bank has not been urged!
