A Political Revolution--Oid Tainma"S
Right Side Up.

TALLMADoE, and nearly one thousand reP'ohcahs u
this city, who, for yeas past have oeeh associaleu
with all the movements OF Ianmahy nan. me
principal feature of this correspondence IS the olrec
positive and emphatic renuncla on ana condemnation
of the principles and doctrines heretofore represented
and advocated in the councils Of the general gov
eminent. by The Hon. Senator Benton, of Missouri
the Hon. Silas Wright &. c. Cambeleng, Abijal
Mann. and Samuel Beardsley, Of this state. An ex-
elusive metallic currency is reproba ed impossible
and isnpractcabe in this country, and the distinct IN
timation is held forth that nothing but judicous
"credt system,' under the action of Congress can
ever restore the honor Of the country furnished by late
events, r. pave the way for resumption OF specie
payments and healthy currency
This correspondence is signed by nearly all the
members of the old republican Committee al Tamma-
ny Hail. besides every republican of note throughout
the CITY, We are further informed that Iwo thousand
additional names, each an old republican in reputa-
ton could have been procured in this city, provided il
had been thought necessary to take the time to collect
them II was not deemed necessary
We attribute to this movements high and import
ant character tits the rst bold and deliberate stand
assumed by any portion of the administration party,
in favor of complete reformation of the laws regua
ting the currency 1t is an approximation, such as
men OF sense and intelligence sometimes make,
towards the same position which was taken by the
Webster meeting in Masonic Hall, or the great
s;ble Lecofoco meeting in the Park-a recogn ton Of
the fact that the country in its financial and CONNER
cial character has been, for years past dissraced,
utterly disgraced by the charatans who have passed
its laws in Congress PRONUNCIATION of the great
or,2cple that an irredeemabe paper currency any
mere paper system, will never meet the appreciation
II ;,,t H.,
This correspondence, and tins movement, distinctly
point to resumption of specie payments, and The re-
nroanzaton of sound credit system, by the creation
Of National Bank, with branches throughout the
country Let the the party organs, the Times, the
Argus, the Globe, the Post
- Tray, Blanche, or Sweetheart, all
park as loud as they please,
unless they fall into the ranks OF the men VINO org
nate this great demonstration, they whi one ana all
- A,;ven like oafers, from the high places they oc-
.,nv in lcss than two years, and better men put IN
their places
There is no mistake in the new and sensible posi-
non assumed by the republicans OF New York Mr..
Van Buren,, himself is are are peH informed pri-
nately in fapor Of the ncW rieU taken 81 me state %
IN. countru and unless Slas Wright, e. C. Cambre-
leng, and the docrinaires, quietly take their posi-
lion side by side, with Senator Talmadge, they must
prepare for crucifxon and banshment.
Planting themselves on the Interchangeable princi-
Piles of return specie payments by the organiza-
ton of credit system, and the creation OF National
Bank the Republicans of New York, whatever may
have been their conduct in past times deserve the
thanks of every merchant every mechanic, every la
borer. every artisan throughout the land. The iron
shackles of party" by which, and through which,
such eharlatans as Slas Wright and c. C. Cambre-
Rao olo rpv0
lutonary, ridiculous clique of bockheads have here
tofsre ruled and chained down the free thoughts of
free men, have, at last, received blow from which
they will never recover The whole Of this most des-
perae daring radical coterie who without brains
10 know what is right or honesty TO pursue II when
they do know will now receive their coup de grace.
We begin to see a light that may lead an abused peo-
ps out of darkness and difficulty, into clear weather
and repose. The republicans, who have boldly como
forward and put their names to this new charter oil
reform in the party, will 60 onward-and onward
Welding not an inch, until their honest views shall
have tramplcd down the mad counses Of such men as
Benton and Wright.
Throughout the Union we learn that similar senti-
ments are beginning to prevail In Virginia, similar
correspondence, and like movement is preparing,
between Mr.. Senator Rives Of that State, and all the
SOUND republicans ofthc odd Dominion" In Penn
sylanla in Connecticut, in New Jersey, in Ohio,
every where preparations foot to place the adj
mnisuaton party in the same Independent position
whica it has boldly announced in this city
Thus far today Our soul is 50 overhewing with
thousand thoughts Of JOY at the prospect of tho
rough reform in the ranks of Tammany Hail. that we
find Il impossible to proceed further. Let not be
misunderstood. am not turned politican-I never
will join any party. Before Heaven and earth, l
swear, that never will support any party-or any
set Of men hereafter, merely such. | cherish too
much an independent attitude-I love too ardently
free thought adore too fervcntIy Truth, fact and n
high and free philosophy every subject to be-
long to any sect in religion, politics, commerce, or
any other department Of life. But when a body Of
men will frankly csms out, ssd avow those sentiments
and doctrine that believe to have the public good
involved in their success will approve the conduct
Of such men-defend their vicws-and protect them
from their foes, only so long as they adhere, like
men Of honor, to the right path.
Let us not despair Of the republic. light has
broken out in thick darkness-v verify, burning and
shining light from Tsmmany Hall God be praised
for that small gimmer Go ahead!
