The Globe, the Boston Post, and the af-
filiated papers of the party have been eharg-
ing the Vino MERCHANTS with the high
crime of causing the Banks 10 suspend specie
payments. General Jackson states in his
letter to Blair, that it is the DEposIrE BANKS
that have been guilty Of this high handed Of
fence, and that they have been BRrBEp by
Biddle and the Barings to bring distress and
ruin upon the country. Now which is the
HIGHEST AUTHORITY in the case? The affiI-
lated presses, or Gen. Jackson? Retract
your calumny against the merchants, ye of
the kennel press-the General is the highest
authority and must be believed. Bost. .4tias.

P0STSCRIPT,

We stop the press to make room for slight
notice of the exercises of the Van Buren
caucns in this town last evening, and regret
that we have only timc 10 say, that the Hon.
Christopher G.. Chnmplin, President of the
Deposite Bank iD this town, read and CRITICS.
ed the recent letters of Andrew Jackson to
Blair editor of the Globe, touching the trea-
cherry and duplicity of the Dcpositc Banks
throughout the country, and gave the old he.
ro sound drnbbing, declaring, in so many
words, that Jackson's statements were not
only infamous, but that there was no truth in
them, and TINT If there were any truth in
them, all the Presidents, Cashiers, and Direc-
tors Of those Banks, deserved to be- sent to
the States Prison and doomed to hard labor
during the remainder Of their lives-in short,
that it was impossible for Jackson, slowed
away in Tennessee, to kno,c any thing about
the matter.
Mr.. Champin further stated that the De-
posife Banks in this State, asked no fav0rs of
the Government-were under no obligations
to them, and that he had been crcdbly in
formed that the Government had overdrawn n
the amount of their Deposites from the Ar

his remarks by q sort of halfway culogy of
Mr.. Pearce, and expressed his adherence of
the Loco-foco doctrines, which could he be-

would vote against him.
Major Bull then attempted to address the
Imeetng-he spoke of Mr.. Pearcr's natural
abilities, which some people, he said, thought
highly Of, but for himself, he could not fully
agree with them in that respect. Here was
a loud burst of applause from all parts Of the

clared that Mr.. Pearcc and himself were op.

a highly interesting and important character
At one time. it appeared probable that the e.

relied on as entirely authentic Since

THE CONGRESSIONAL ELEC.
TIONS.
In KENTUcKY.--Returns have at last
reached us from the only doubtful District in
this State, being that last represented by Mr..
Boyd, (Admin.) In that District, a Wing
mr. Campbell) has been elected, though
there were two Wing candidates running at
once against the Administration candidate.
Kentucky thus presents an undivided front;
and though electing her Representatives by
Districts, has chosen Wings in every District
thirteen in number In the last Congress,
nine only of the thirteen were Whigs.l
In lNDiANA.-Ratliff Boon, the remaining
representative Of Gen. Jackson in this State
is defeated, and Wing elected in his place.
Indiana also, therefore, has chosen an en-
tire Wing representation in Congress.
The majority against Mr.. Lane (the late
administration representative from this state

VINO GAIN SINCE THE LAST CoNGREss.-
In the last Congress, Mr.. Van Burcn had a
decided majority Of from twenty eight to
thirty votes. In the next Congress, his ma
jority, it any, will not exceed six or seven.-
From present appearances, the chances arc
in favor Of the Wings, and Mr. Van Buren,
must not be surprised should he find himself
in the minority, instead Of being in the ma
jority. The Wing gains, since the last Con-
gress, have been made in the following

debts be declared to be debts Of honor; that
the Judiciary be reformed, and preccdents
abolished; that the public domain be free to
actual settlers; and that a State Convention
be held at Utica, on the second Monday in

Of right Of conscience, and which shall re.
