The KEMEDY--Wc begin 10 despair Of the re
public. With all confidence in the energies
tho cncrrisc AMI resources Of our countsymen
we fear that the four years Of option, cmpTi
cisTn, and ignorance which is vet before US vii
suffice to sink us to the lowest depth Of natiOna
misery, as VIC arc already at the lowest point o
national degradation. So far from shrinking back
from the frghiful spectacle Of tho ruin thcir exc
cradle policy has brought u:son the country; tho
administration is assuming tone of dictato-iaI
rccklcssncss, in the midst OF the agcnzing strus-
giles Of their victims, which is absolutely intoi-
cradle TO contemplate. That precious organ Of
the government, the Globe, is daily growing
more inso!cnt, in proportion as the difficulties (
the people incrcasc, and instead Of the subtlucd
tcnc which it manifested when the catastrophe
first too place, and it invited n suspension Of
party fostiiitics in tho common caiamity-;t
now urges I'M eternal war upon tho commerce L.
industry III tho nation. Dc!enda est CARTHAGE is
lis motto. The mercantile community must be
utterly Frustrated and annhiltcd before the prin-
cipics Ot tho administration can be fully triumph

meaning thereby all who own bank stock OF own
bank bills, il declares must be cxtcrminatcj be-
Fore the golden age which its masters have prom

Tho dcicstabio naalignisy whish is consa.nsly .f-

MISSIONS and tho lowest ignorance, il is evident
hat tho contest is still to be carried as fierce
y as ever against all the pursuits of enterprise

Already VIC told by this Of
icial cxpositor Ofthc intention and views of the
