THE PRESENT POSITION q,

The following remark, from the las, Leu
ins'on (Va.) Gazette. We have no doubt cor.
restiy expires, the present views and opinion,
Of the great body Of the Wing Party. We
adopt them as embOdying throughout our own
sentiments:
Some, (ssys the intelligent editor Of The
Gazette VIC are confident, do no, und.r,,,na
the position assumed bv the Wing patty, in
relation To the controversy between the friend,
Of the Administration ON the sub Treasury and
ret Bank schemes. They arc opposed 10
e''her, believing them both To be Temporary
and inefficient expedients-ihe ore a, b,,,

II was adopted. They do not contend. a,
some profess 10 believe. that, As the Difficult.
ties under which we labor. have been broush,
upon Us by the Administration party. th,y
should do nothing TO relieve the eoun,r, from
ITS great entertainments. On the contrary
they will ehesrfuiIy support any measure,
which, In their opiniOR, IL calculated 10 give
relief to the People, cod TO place The currency
upon such foundation rs will prevent The
recurrence Of the scenes through which We
are now passing.
They oppose the plan OF the President,
and that OF MIR. RiVes, because they see in
them nothing 10 relieve the business eomnu-
nry. OF even to give permanent .ueeor 10 the
Government They believe that either Of
these schemes will give an enormous patrou-
age 10 the Executive, which may be employ
cd Tor the basest purposes. They are for
eoniin ing The power Of the President strictly
within the limits prescribed by the Cops,itu-
ton. and the genius VI Republican institutions
and they are for establishing q sound, uniform
circulating medium alike for tho People and
their rulers. They believe that alt control

HIGH PalcE or PsovIsuoN.-It is not long since
we exposed tho iniquitous system of upholding the
present high prices Of provisions by retailers when,
with the exception of flour, almost every article OF
consumption not Injuries, had fallen in price csnsd-
erably.
Acting upon the principle that provisions once up
ought go down, the retailers have taken the
dminuton of the prices of measures the fortune
If war; from which they alone are TO derive any
peneft.
The injustice as well as the evil tendency of this
efsh procedure will be manifest to all who give the
lmbJect moments consideration.
Some Of the retailers maintain an imaginative right
TO any benefit accruing from variation OF pncts OF
articles for consumption, upon the principle that the
owner of house is entitled to whatever advance he
may gain upon the increase value of his purchase.
more childish ridiculous, and prsposerous position
was never before upheld.
The latter is a mere speculation-the former is no
speculation whatever; when to themselves the prices
of provisions are raised they Immediately raise the
prices upon their customers SO that the benefit is
wholly on their side.
We are urged to these remarks by the appearance
of notice of meeting to be held in the Tabernacle
this evening" to take into consideration this all i'm
portant subject.
That a system evil, unnghteous, so fatal,
could long continue is net to be be expectedaccord
ingly we find some public spirited men taking up the
subject before mentioned They put forth the start
ling facts that in Paris bread is cents pound in
London three, whilst here in America it is They
show the Importation of thousands of bushels ofgrain
from foreign countries into ports and also that cur
own produce this year brought into the market exceeds
that Of the last by several hundred thousand bushels
and they then ask-What becomes of it? Where
does it go? Is it consumed? Who eats it? In the
distieres of this city alone, it's said, twelve hundred
thousand bushels are annually consumed, and in the
breweres many thousands more.
These assertions are startling. The subject is Of
the deepest interest to all classes and we much
pleased to see it taken up. Many able speakers
will be at the tabernacle this evening
