Mr.. EditOr:--
SIR:-I discover that the Press of all
parties is unanimous in cali upon Bank
Directors, who are members Of the Legs
lature,- to resign one station or the other;
to the end that fair and impartial legisla-
ton may have full sway in awarding JUS
tee to the best interest of the planter, the
merchant, the mechanic, and to the banks
themselves. But, to what extent this call
daily reiterated by the people will be
obeyed, time only will disclose. There
can be no Justification now, connected
with desire 70 retain both stations and
serve the public, whenit is so diometri-
cally opposed to their wishes. They
should resign at once. But, sir, the ends
of Justice should be but partially served,
if reform in relation to bank directors was
allowed to stop here. There is still amore
foul incubus resting upon many Of these
institutions than can possibly accrue from
the legislation Of Bank Directors, in either
the Halls of Congress or our State Legs
latures; and which preys more upon the
Vitals and best interests of the people than
any thing else connected with their opera
tons. 1t is fora Bank Director TO be al
So Bank Broker, and Moneg-skdUer,--
No principle Of justice, equity, reason o.
fair dealing can reconcile this. What
1.-The Directory Of a Bank composed IN part
or il all, Of money-shavers and Exchange
brokers, to sit and pass upon al paper
offered for discount Even handed Jus
tice can never have her full sway. I'm,
POSSIBLE. The idea is absurd. No bank
should even have one member in its Board
who is at the same time, either directly O
indirectly an Exchange-broker or money
l'shaver. For, i Is TO bis interest whilst
sitting at the board, and he will seldom
foreqo the temptation 70 vote against, o

The following, from the Cincinnati Post,
may give some insight into the manner
in which the public moneys are squander.
ed. When Cabinet officers coh descend
TO this, il is not at all astonishing to see
another national debt contracted.
INFAMoUs.-Can it be possible that the
administration is sunk so low-becone so
perfectly Infamous as is represented by
the following extract from the Washington
correspondent Of the Baltimore Patriot Z
We would not believe it, did we not daily
receive accounts Of transactions by them
and their tools, almost as infamous. We
do not know which most to despise, him
that would make, or him that would pay
such a charge. But what surprises us IS
that the Wing press scarcely takes pass.
ing notice Of such baseness, while il has
columns to devote to the most trihing sub.
ject in party politics. But here is the ex.
tract:
+Here was the Secretary of the Trea-
sury with his $6OOO per annum. He
charged several liars for each days at.
tendance, and fifteen cents day for mi
lage for walking from the Department
70 the Capitol The Clerks followed the
example of their head. They had their
regular per diem and their fifteen cents mi
lage; although all this while they were
pocketing their regular salaries.
