THE MADIsoNIAN.-The first number Of
this professed organ Of the Republican party
of the Union, has been issued in Washington
the past week, and is announced to be issued
semi-wecky and weekly. The new paper
announces its sturdy opposition to the Wing
pary,to the establishment of a National Bank
and to the Loco-focos. Mr.. Gougc's new no
ton Of divorcing all banks from the govern
ment, is secuted with just scorn. The Madi-
sonian fires full broadside into the Globe for
giving it the cold shoulder in announcing the
contemplated publication, and accounts for its
temerity in publishing its prospects in the
National lntelligencer, by the fact that the
Globe refused to insert it even ss an aGver-
tisement. The Journal of Commerce says,
the address of the Albany Committee, the
Letter of Senator Tallmadgc, and that Of the
Seven Hundred to Mr.. Tailmadgc, embrace
a general outline of the ground it maintains
on the subject Of the currency
In the first number all these documents are
published. The Madisonian opposes Ma
tionaI Bank on the one hand, and the war up
on the local Banks on the other The editor
says

ton in relation to the proper line of policy
which should be adopted, affecting the cur

pie generally, and emphatcally demanded by
the great commercial interests of the coun-
try. Bot it cannot be disguised that the ef-
forts Of those who entertain the destructive
notion OF prostrating the State Banks, tend to
increase the difficulties under winch the coun.
try is Iaborng, and to distract and unsettle
the question which ought to be speedily and
decided"
Again.
"If there be any who intend 10 keep up
war Of determination against all existing in
stitutions, they will find us at least of q spri,
tO battle them TO the utmost. IL there be any

dream Of an exclusive metallic currency, un-
der any disguise whatever, our heads and
hearts are against them, also. But in all
these, as well as in the more delicate aud
startling sectional questions which are rapid
ly rising in the Union, associated with the
deepest feeling md a silent but most pro-
found determination. and which will present

sound, progressive reform, not subversion and
destruction. TO innovate is not TO reform.
Wherever we find deep seated political DIS

we would adhere to the republicanism OF our
fathers and preserve the ancient landmarks"
