| Van Buren,, and having reposed at all times great
confidence in his prudence and sagaciiy, confess
thai was asonished, that In his very first commu-
nicaiion TO Congress he should have proposed plan
for the collection safe keeping and disbursement Of
the public treasure which had, recent occasion
been repudiated, with unexampled unanimity, by
the very party which had brought him into power.
II the State Banks can with truth be said to have
JAILED In redeeming the just expectations OF the Go
vernment and people Of the country, every inteli-
gent observer, must at least admit that il under
circumstances OF very peculiar character which
had led to the arrangement of the monetary affairs
OF the country in degree unprecedented in his
tory; that IL was the result of combination of
causes-in part proceeding from the action of the
Government itsef-such as had never before existed
in the country, and such in all human probability
will never exist again. Most of the banks, too, II
was well known, instead Of availing themselves Of
the occasion Of suspension Of cash payments 10 en-
large their profits by flooding the country with nor
dinate issues of paper had adopted the most prudent
and cautious policy, and gradually, but surely
putting their houses in order and preparing for
early resumption. For the President, in this condi-
ton of affairs, to propose measure which, II sue
cessfu must inevitably shut the door against specie
payments and add immeasurably 10 the embarrass-
ments under whchthe country was suffering through
out its entire length and BREADTH 10 do that for
which the sober and rejecting portion of citi-
zens were BY nomeans prepared. washeaping Goals
of fire upon their heads. The consequences but
too plainly discernible in the elections which have
since been held They speak language neither to
be misunderstood nor disregarded by men whose
minds are not closed against conviction, or bent on
self destruction. The President has listened too
readily 10 the evil promptings OF of those by
whom he is surrounded but if he has the disposition
to do so, indulge the hope that it is not yet too late
TO reirace his steps, and regain the confidence SO
much impaired by the unfortunate move he has
made in reference to thepublic finances His friends
il to him and to themselves 10 speak out this
subject; and If he is the man have ever taken him
to be, he will approve their honest frankness and
good intentions And if they would do SO in time
to bin, they should speak at once for you may
rely upon it there is no time to be lost. His Sub
Treasury scheme icont do; he must make up his
mind TO abandon it. and to do il quickly The Globe,
too by its iudiscretion and rashness is driving from
his support many Of his best friends. Virginia is
not going to sacrifice such men as Rives, Garland
and others at the bidding of any man, for opposing
with manly frmness, the rash and rtinous schemes
of those in power"

VIRGINIA.

The Richmond Enquirer of the l4th says
that, ga few days ago, our impression was,
that majority of the Republican party in Vir-
qinia was in favor Of the Sub-Treasury
scheme but the information we have re-
ceived, induces us to believe, that the current
is running the other ,oay."
Where, pray tell us, is the slightest current
running in its favor
The Enquirer further says
"The times warn us of the necessity Of cultivating
harmony among ourselves and, Of course, of avoid
inc all controversy and division. We wish hence
forth to forbear ali discussion upon the Sub Treasury
scheme We are willing to refer the question tothe
wisdom of Congress. We have determined there
fore to say nothing more about it, unless we are
urged TO it by imperious considerations We have
right to expect therefore, that others will let us
alone We respectfully recommend it TO our friends
to avoid further discussion in this or in other pa
pers."
Speaking of the New York election the
Enquirer says:
"Let the Wings boast of their temporary triumph,
as they pcase-I is but for season-The day OF re-
action is at hand The Democratic party VIII rally
again under the same banner--We have not a mo-
ment's fear of it, if we be wise-and though the
Wings may pretend that the battle OF Gamma has
been fought, vt Rome will be saved. Republicans,
fear it not. This gloom will disperse. We Will
take measures in the proper sprit-and bright
or day awaits us.

Iae Nep York Nep Daily Times is the title of
new paper, just commenced in New York. X is
neatly printed on a medium sheet, and enters the
political arena on the side ofthe administration We
find the following communication in H. and COM
mend the Nep Times 10 the doctrine to which II re-
fcrs. If we understand New York, the Times win
rapidly purchase for itself the public favor by throw
ing its influence into the scale with the rising star of
conservative democracy
From the Nep Times
THE CONSERVATIVE DOCTRINE
The changes of public opinion throughout the
State are decisive proofs of the virtue and strength
oil those cardinal principles strenuously advocated
by the conservatives in contIadistncion 10 the agra
ran doctrines, that are incompatible with free and
enlightened institutions, and the policy of social and
commercial intercourse. The Introduction Of such
vague theories and doctrines into the ranks of pure
democracy, at period so inauspicious and while
the country was groaning under its baeful effects,
was iil-adviSed and imporitic-wholly at variance
with the elements OF reason, and the avowed senti
ments OF the leaders. II was the uniting Of the two
parties that induced the spirit of the former 10 with
draw its support from that of the latter and thereby
test the efficacy Of their power when left to rest upon
its own merits. The gradual accession Of strength
il has received of late years caused them TO take all
The power into their own hands; sanguine OF the
strength and universayo of their doctrines they have
moved on with mighty impulse, until too late to
discover the aacy of their reasoning they have fall
len victims 10 their own arts and Devices brought 10
contend against their opponents. II was the rretrev-
able ruin and devastation already brought about BY
the advocating Of such doctrines that caused so ma
ny thousands that had hitherto supported the republic
can ticket 10 remain inactive and neutral at the pre-
lent Junclure, and condemn in toto any thing that
bore close affinity to il whatever The prevailing
impression with many, that they were espousing the
principles based upon the Jeffersonian school, was
one OF the gross and palpable errors into which num-
bers of most respectable citizens had been led
and this fact gave, Of itself, character and paus
bily TO their proceedings that so enabled them to
succeed for the two past years as fortunately as they
did.
Neither human wisdom nor human sagacity could
have foretold the mighty change that has already
been wrought; it has truly ceased to become seri-
Gus, but not ludicrous subject; and now that the
democracy have crushed the bloated and Infatuated
doctrines that attempted to insnuate themselves into
their ranks let them return again to their former po
ston, firm and undauned in the belief that they will
conquer, and rescue the character they have always
sustained from the obloquy and reproach heaped
upon them by the wild and unnatural doctrines,
founded OF false premises, pernicous in therview
and destructive in their end.
