Look at the large meeting ofthe Locofocos on Mon
day evening in the Park. See with what regularity,
moderation and good temper their proceedings were
conducted Read the high moral principles broach-
ed and sustained by this primary body. They are
sufficient TO strike terror in the hearts Of the bankites
and their equally corrupt enemies, the Tammanies-
And they hare gone home the feelings of all these

in the harness cut out and made for them by the de-
signing and cunning. They are breaking loose from
these BOMBS of niquty and slavery. They have be-
gun to think for themselves. Such has been one OF
the good effects resulting from the destruction Of the
old system of bank rule and the despotsm OF specu-
laton. The corrupt Wings and the corrupt Tamma-
MES will find to their astonshment that honesty and
integrity are henceforth to have the ascendency and
that the star of their glory is going down rapidly IN
the western sky. Their power and influence are for
ever gone.

man, want some great ralying point around which
they may assemble. They want some common
sense motto under which their strength and their
energies may be exericd with advantage to themselves
and the great mass of the people. The eyes Of the
nation have been blinded leng enough by the articles
of party Instead of being the rulers Of this land the
thinking and intelligent people, the acknowledged So
vereigns, have been governed by few cunning and
interested politicians. The great question of the
rency has brought them TO their senses. Sc loag as
men could trade and get on, so long they did not
stop TO inquire into the stability Of the foundations ON
which the commercial edifce stood. But now that
rsguery and wickedness have blown up the whole
structure all eyes turned towards the ruins. And
well they may. Every body, more or less, has felt
the effects of this terrible explosion.
