which country laborlng, and to trace those diff
cu,es TO their true source it will not be amiss for
members OF the republican party to pause, and ex-
anime well the position which they occupy There can
be doubt existing in the mind Of any rational member
of our party, that have arrived at crisis which 1t
will require the utmost caution aud crcumspecton TO
pass safety aud 1t is most lamentable that at time
when our strength, we hear the tocsln Of war
sounded in ranks You understand the aluslon
The Washington Globe, recognised the official" at
Washington, has recently given some dreadful notes
Of peparation, and if to believe the givings out
in that quarter of determination Is to be waged
upon that portion Of the administration party who will
60 the whole length with the Globe, in its mad
SADIE against the banks.
The political guiotine, presume. will be most
merclfuy applied, by the Globe" and every demo-
crat who dares differ with its editor in opinion and
who holds on to the principles laid down by Gen Jack
IN his numerous messages TO Congress- and reiterat
ed by Mr.. Van Buren,, his letter to Sherrod Williams
is to have his head most unceremoniousy stricken off
Mr. Rives particularly need not be surprised If he is
- read of the church" when he gets Washington
and has to 90 home with his head in his mouth As
to Major Garland he will be bound neck and heels and
pitched into the Potomac, what is rather worse he
will be given to the embraces OF modern whlggery
Is the Globe mad Does its editor not perceive
that If the policy which he and some others are sdvo-
eating is to be the policy Of the administration it will
be worse than mill stone about our necks, and will
drag Va down to one common vortex Of ruin Does he
not perceive that he Is arrayng the whole State Bank
influence against u.s. addition to what already
have to encounter! Have not enemies enough
that he should wish to provide us with more! Let
him look the result of the elections the west,
and he will find most commentary upon his
scheme OF an exclusively metallic currency Those
elections give signs OF woe that all his lost" unless
proper be pursued by the administration 1t is
perfectly evident to every well informed man that
immense majority Of the people opposed to the
"Gougc Scheme" Why then try it! We know that
of the fundamental maxims of the republican party
is that the wishes Of the people should always control
the action Of the Government, and protest against hav
ing MIR. Goages golden visions olsted upon us in
spite Of ourselves.
!" ! believe that " scheme to be wholly mpracticabe.
1t is fully half century behind the age II the ques-
ton were, whether should establish Banking
System not, should most certainly 60 for exclu-
slyely metallic currency but such is not the question.
The Banking System is thoroughly interviewer with
the very bres OF Society, if may express it, that it
is folly attempt to break down and that Suddcniy
too II we should return to what the " Globe
calls the Constitutional currency must do
gradudHy-and it does seem to me, that Mr.. Rves'
"Curency Bill" most important step towards the
"consunmation devoutly wished" by the /" Globe"
Suppress the small aud specie will take their place
naturally day follows night. Why then need the
Globe" quarrel with us We go together far
VIC do 90, and surely, because 90 with him one mile,
he will compel to go t,rain! Our system pavcs
the way for his own, and the ercsioc hard money
ahoud therefore, unite with most cordially its sup
port ! will not pursue the subject farther but will IN
conclusion appeal to the e." Globe TO know if pur
suing Just and liberal course towards the majority OF
the republican party, dcnouncing them rag money
men, simply because they occupy the same ground that
they occupied IN 3i-5 and Arc they not advo
eating the very principles non, that Gen Jackson him
self advocated when President We are aud for those
principles mean 10 bduc 10 the last
DENocRArus.
We so often hear the Globe called the official
paper" Government Journal and the like, that
should be glad know if there be official organ of
the government, either at Washington elsewhere
Gen. Jackson know carried these matters farther
than any OF his predecessors, and made the Globe his
organ of communicating to the public the views OF the
executive many OF the most important measures
winch adopted during his administration; it was
for all politicians to refer to that paper hen
they wished to ascertain what policy the government
DESTROYS OF pursuing on any SUBJECT, aud hence II
may have been truly called the Government Journal
We incline to the opinion that Mr., Van Buren, will
not make any paper organ of communicating his
views any agitacd by the people. At least
shall be slow to believe that the Globe has reflected
his views in relation to the banks and the currency,
til it under his own signature.
Mr. Jefferson never recognised any paper the Of
fcia organ of the Government while he President
II any person felt DESTROYS OF knowing what his opinions

call and pass evening with him and his family III

that the editor the National ncillgenccr, (M Smth
obtained information respecting the views OF MIR. Jei-
ierson, any matter connected with the government
either foreign or domestic, but Mr. Smith never
authorised speak for the government in official
manner.
