CORRESPONDENCE.
New YonK. May IA. 1888.


DEAR SiR:--The week past has developed the re-
suit of the legal resumption OF specie payments by
all the Banks in this State and before predicted
the crisis has passed without the least dificuy-and
henceforth we may confidently expect gradual but
certain improvement in every branch of business.
Specie still continues 10 flow into the city from Eu-
rope. The Liverpool packet ships have during the
past week, brought nearly two millions Of dollars.
Merchandise Of all descriptions Is still depressed,
and considerable time must elapse before business
will have resumed It's former activity.
The extraordinary annunciaion made by the Pre-
siden in relation to the deficiency of means to meet
the pressing demands Of the Treasury Department
is mournful aestation of the truth of the obiec-
tions forciby urged by the consistent Democratic
Republicans against the adoption Of the New Expe-
dient. II the Administration had but permitted the
Banking Institutions Of the country to resuscitate
their PROSTATE energies, without superadding
tinued assault their character and credit the spec
tacle Of bankrupt Treasury with all lis humiatiDg
adjuncts might have been spared the nation. Com
merce would have long ere this in that event, have
recovered from its depressed condition, and the diff
ferent branches Of the public revenue would have
filled the Golfers Of the Government
But in an evil hour the counses OF theoretical po-
iitiSidus were nctucu, anu consequences ue-
pcted in the Notifying confession Of our Chief Ma
giStrate that the Treasury is insovent.
Our New York merchants and capitalists view the
recent successful effort to establish regular
nication between this port and Liverpool by means
Of steam vessels, with sentiments Of high grafca-
tion. Il is thought that these vessels will be the
channel through which the moneyed operations Of
Europe with America will flow, and 1t is easy to fore
see that our Emporium will derive great advantages
from being the reservoir Of such vast Exchange
transactions.
The Spring which has heretofore been remarka-
bly, cold and backward has at length assumed more
pleasing aspect. The air is now mild and genial,
and the gay trappings Of the fower-decked goddess
are Haunting in the breeze gratifying the eye with
their varied colors and enchanting the by the
delicacy and sweetness Of their perfumes. In the
city the ladies emulate the fields and gardens by the
splendor of their apparel and the bloom on their
cheeks, and it is worth your while to visit me-
tropolis, if only 10 lounge in Broadway for few de-
licous afternoons, and view the grace and beauty of
the fair beings, who, like angels Of light pass and
repass along this animated thoroughfare

From the National Intelligeneer.
TO THE HON. JOHN C. CALHOUN.

In recent speeches, in the Senate, you have re-an-
nounced with eryspecial emphasis, that you belong
to that political party called State rights or strict
constructionsts and have exhibited, in bold relief
some of the doctrines of that school Setting out
with denial TO the General Government of any
powers except such as are either expressly granted to
By the Constitution or as are necessary TO carry into
effect the granted popers you deny to the Govern
ment any authority to receive bank notes in payment
of the public revenue, or TO deposite the public mo-
neys in any bank or to enter into any contract with
any bank for the safe-keepng of the public money.
There are occasions when the afgumentum ad no
minsm is not only admissible, but Of special propre
ty. This is one of them.
You were Vice President of the United States for
eight years and have doubtless received the salary
given to that officer by law. pray you to let the
Public know in some shape or other, in what pro-
vision or principle OF the Constitution is iound &C
cordng TO your judgment, the power Of Congress to
provide this salary submit to you, as an indispu-
table TRUTH that there is such principle, except
one, which is repudiated emphaticaly by yourself,
and the school to which you belong, 10 wit, that in
the appropriation Of money, the powers OF Congress
are co-extenSiye with the demands OF the general
welfare. While compensation is expressly provided
by the Constitution for the President, art 2, sec.
for Senators and Representatives, art l, Sec 6 for
Judges, art. g. sec and for all officers emanating
from these in the necessary and proper exercise Of
their powers, art !, sec II, there is none provided
for the Vice President.
Although, you state, you adopted the principles
of the strict construction school in lS35-that is, at
the commencement of your Vice Presidency-it is
not doubted that you received the salary, without adj
vertng at all to any question of the constitutional
power Of Congress upon the subject. As things now
are, however, respectfully submit to you, that you
to yourself either to refund this money to
show that Congress, upon the constitutional doc
rines that you profess, has lawfully given il to you
Ifyou do neither l, at least shall be at no loss to
judge how far these doctrines are TO be deferred 10,
as the Legitimate offspring ofyour judgment

MENDACITY OF THE OFFICIAL
ORGAN.

The Globe of Monday night contains an ar
ticle, headed War upon the Government
Astounding with the most reckless misrepre-
sensations and vndiclive ISLANDERS; as well as
ridiculous exhibition Of humbuggery and non
sense.
Those who have opposed the abominable
bill to authorize the Government to continue
to pay the public creditors in deprecated
by the official organ with being influenced by
a factious spirit" in resisting this sautary
measure" "a measure, (says the Globe)
necessary to enable the Government to per-
form its dutes-to provide for the wants Of
the Army and Navy--to keep in employment
the laborers engaged in the public service"
&c. SIC. The Globe continues :" This mea-
sure they oppose from day to day, not by even
the semblance of argument, but by speaking
against time upon anything and everything
without the slightest reference to the subject"
What is the purpose Of those who are thus
charged The Globe says, that
= 1 he Wnoe purpose OF the Opposition, so unblnsh-
ingly manifested by some Of them, is merely to worry
the maority-to exhaust the Treasury--to deprive the
Government Of its proper resources-preyent aEpro
pria,ions to indispensable oblectsto compel the dis
charge Of the laborers the public works-to make the
Government break its faith with its agents and crcdi-
tors abroad and at homein word to force it TO fail
! in all its obligations"
Now here is beautiful bill of indictment
drawn up by the official organ. But, as it
happens, there IS mol one 'rord Of truth con-
tanned in The mhoie Of it from beginning 10
end, excepting as to the debate having extend
ed to subjects not connected with that imme-
diatcly before tho House. This was invited,
indeed, challenged, by the chairman of the
Committee Of Ways and Means, in his open
ing speech, in which he strayed away from
the Treasury note bill, wandering about, tum-
bling upon the free banking law of New York
Resumption Of specie payments-Erecutire
frmness--trcnzy Of State Legislatures--vice-
royalty and british troops in Canada-and
many other subjects, as wholly disconnected
from that Of authorizing the re-issuing of
Treasury notes, as the magnificent splendor
of the oriental Governments is from that Of the
simplicity of Republics.

Mr. Snyder is a member OF the old democratic

self His popularity, arising from public distinction
and private worth, received the reward of an homo
rabe ambition, in an election to Congress In the
midst Of useful public life Mr.. S. had been admo-
nshed Of the necessity OF abandoning it, by repeated
attacks Of Heemorrhage at the lungs. In one Of
these attacks, which had Frustrated him for more
than week, he rose from his bed, impelled by a
sense of duty TO his constituents and went to the
House, in order to vote the question Of the Mis-
sissip election, which his vote determined Of
the motions. The people of Illinois will not find a
truer, ADLER or better man 10 represent them. We

The ELEcrIoNs.-The administration, by its war
upon the institutions currency and business of the
people is fast losing all the States that have here
tofore supported it. Ii said of Robesperre, that
he lost his power and his life because he would not
answer the demand for an equalization Of property

DESTROYS of following his example in more respects

their prototype shall not be committed by them. So

Post, the Hartford Times, the New Hampshire
Patriot and other organs Of the administration are
all trying break down the banking institutions of
the country and to PROSTATE its most important bust
ness interests, by crying out "away with rag money
=" down with the rag barons"-"t the dynasty Of
banks, great and small, approaches its end" &c. &C.
These determined attempts of the radical loco foco
party TO destroy public confidence in the tried insti
tuons Of the country-to "revolntionize" the usual
mode of transacting business and in fact 10 pro-
duce an equalization Of property" contended for
by Fanny Wright and other foreign radicals in New
York in 1920, tell the whole tale Of the causes Of
defeat and disaster which seems, at present every

We understand that Wednesday next, the 10th in
slant at O'Clock in the afternoon is the time fixed
for the election of U. S. Senator in place of the
Hon. J. M. Niles. There are several candidates in
the field but that it is probable the contest will be
principally between the friends Of the Hon. Joseph
Trumbull of this city, and the Hon. Roger M. Sher-
man of Fairfield.
There is one very remarkable fact in relation to
the present Legislature which is worthy Of passing
notice. Contrary to custom and usage for many
years past, there has not been during the ses-
sion, single u. S. Officer taking the members by
the button and debating to them what course they
shall pursue-who is democrat" as they under
stand the term, and who is not--and who shall be
appointed to Office and who shall BOT, Heretofore
the Legislature has uniformly been beset by Off
cious clan of Government Office holders, Collectors,
Postmasters, Inspectors, Surveyors, Tidewaiters,
Clerks &c. &c. who have assumed to themselves
the right TO dictate and manage the whole business
Of the Legislature. Their influence and constant
opportunities have been most detrimental TO the in
terests of the people and to the proceedings Of the
Legislature, having tendency TO procTastnate and
corrupt the latter to an alarming degree. We are
rejoiced therefore, TO have this swarm Of political
Locusts, who would "eat out the substance Of the
people," and plot mischief, scattered and dispersed
Let them attend to their appropriate duties and move
in their proper spheres, and the people will soon
convince them that they are competent 10 manage
their affairs without that kind of intermeddlng from
them, which has been SO long complained of-Hart-

SEPARATION OF THE POLITICAL AND
MONEY POWER.

MIR. Calhoun sent the following sentiment
to company at St. Clairsville, Ohio, cele-
brating the birth day Of Thomas Jefferson
"THE PsEsENT CRIas--Le the watch-word of
every Republican be, Thomas Jefferson and 9S;
and final and complete separation oft political and
money p0rer, aop and forpcr."
a separation of the political and money
powerp'
What is the meaning Of such sentiment
What are the consequences to which it looks 7
What is the political power"
II is the power relating to the administra-
ton public affairs.
In whom does this power reside!
In the sovereign people.
What is the money power?
II must be the power acquired by the pos
session of money.
What is money?
The photographers define il TO be any
metal coined for the purpose of trade, or com
merce. Commerce is intercourse, traffic, by
which people exchange commodities. Money
is substitute for the commodities themselves,
or the conventional representative of value
for the greater facility Of intercourse or COM
merce. Money may represent cotton, tobacco,
rice or manufactures, and these various CON-
modities may represent money; for either
will purchase the other Money therefore,
is property. Where does property reside, and
how is it produced! tits produced by LABOR
and is difIused among the laboring classes.
Labor, says Adam Smith, is the only source
Of wealth. The /" money power" therefore,
originates with LABOR, and resides with the
LABoR1Ne CLASSES. Who are the laboring
classes
They are the farmers, the manufacturers,
the mechanics, and the artizans, who work
with their hands, and the various other profess
sions that contribute to the general result by
the labor Of their minds. Do not these classes
comprise the bone and snew Of our country
the very sovereigns in whom resides the
supreme "political power'-the majority Of
the people Nobody can deny it.
Ifthen both the "money power" and the
"political power" reside with the people, how
shall they be separatcdl II is an obvious i'm
possibility. A visionary and absurd abstrac-
ton. But if by the ''politcal power be
merely meant the government Of the country,
what would be the consequence of separating
it from the " money power" which is repre-
scented by the LABOR of the country? 1t would
be a separation of the Government from the
people. How can such separation be eff
fectedl Only by depriving the people Of the
right Of representation, and establishing an
unlimited and absolute despotism.
Is this the doctrine advocated by Mr.. CAL
HoUN, and his Sub Treasury allies

blind and SO wanting in common sense as to
be thus humbugged.
Why, the very argument Of the Globe
stamps them with the strongest mark of con-
demnation. They can be obtained by the
merchants to pay their debts TO the Govern
ment without the heary premium which they
would have been obliged to give for specie"

THE SOCIAL DUTIES OF WOMAN.

We are deeply indebted to our fair correspondent
for continuance of her sensible and instructive
essays on the social duties Of her sex. The first she
favored us with received the warm appreciation of
our readers and we are sure, must have met the
tire appreciation of her sex.
Man can preach TO the sex but woman only can
teach them. Preceps of little use; but examples
are alike potent and Indispensable and woman only
can set an example to her sex, whether in the cu-
walton of the mind or the heart, the intellect or the
affections While woman, therefore, takes upon
herself toinsruct her sex in the social duties of life
we may be sure they will be thoroughly taught, and
religiously discharged.
We trust our correspondent will continue her va
luable essays. ~.

Unfortunately for themselves and the circle in
