VIRGINIA REDEEMED The Administration con-
cede the election to tho Wings in Virginia. and Of
fer the customary apologies for their defeat They
are fully conscious of the important loss they have
sustained, and of the strength Virginia will bring
into the ranks of their opponents, partly by Its con-
trolling influence at the South. The returns are
not yet complete. The House Of Delegates now
stands G3 Wings 10 45 Van Buren, The places to
be heard from may make trifing difference in ia
vor of the administration One third only OF the
Senate was elected this year. The Wing majority
will doubtless be from 10 to 20. Van Buren, maj
ity last year, DO.
Later and more full returns from Pattons Dis
trict render probable that Banks, the V. b. can
ddate has been elected by 9 majority. There has
been, nevertheless, IRENE ndous gain since the
last election by the Wings. The Administration
majority nearly 600. We gave the news last
week found it in the papers, both Wing and
Van Buren,.

Mr. FLETCHER AND HAMER's REsoLI

Mr. FLETCHER AND HAMERs RESOLUTION. In
the Waterman of yesterday we noticed letter
from Mr. Fletcher correcting statement published
in that paper the effect that he, Mr F. voted a.
gainst taking up Hamer's resolution. We also
published the same, and readily give tho correction
the same notoriety we did the At the time
we had no doubt of the truth of what we published
as it was stated in the reported doings of Con-
gress and published in all the papers tina, gave the
ayes and nays upon the qusuon. And further
nearly every administration member Voted in the
negative, which deemed oonfirmatory Of the
truth of the statement. We glad Mr. Fletcher
has for once manifested sufficient independence to
break loose from his party at Washington, though
by so doing he may take antagoniscal position
to his party in this state, which he has done in this
instance, if their papers true index of the
sentiments of the party. Mr. F. says
81 have the pleasure to inform you, gentlemen,
that on Mr. Hamer's resolution above alluded TO. [
cheerfully voted in the affirmative with the rest of
the Vermont delegation. who were present, both
from principle and policy believing it an act of Jus.
tice due the banks from government, and that nv
name stands recorded on the journals of the
House."

GTIt stated in Foreign papers thas thesCarlists
in SPAIN perceiving their cause to be growing des-
perate, have invented story that the "miraculous
bird" was on its way visit their provinces-which
bird, according to tradition, visits their country at
long intervals as the herald of mefortunate event
The straiagem it is added, has succeeded admirably
the people having become more enthusiastic than
ever In their cause. We would commend this so
nv TO the attention of the Van Buren, editors, af
fording them valuable hints their present strait
as the perpetual cry of "Nick Biddle and the "grea
monied power" which served their turn for sea-
son, has evidently lost its power. If nothing will
do but humbugs pray let us have little variety in
the matter.
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1838-05-15

VINO FAvons SPECIE PAyMENTs' Bya reference
to our Congressional extracts it will be noticed that
Mr. Clay's resolution, published in the Caledonlan
last week, pledg;ng the countenance OF Govern
ment TO assist the Banks and sustain them in their
efforts to specie payments, by receiving their
bills on debts due the Government, has been refer
red 10 the Finance Committee, which is consider
ed no less than virtual consignment oft to the
tomb of the Capulets That Committee is hostile
to the banks, and it will not report any measure
favorable to them. Hamers resolution was sup
pressed by the Administration party in the House,
and that party will not now change its policy. Its
design is eventually to crush the banks, and make
way tor the Treasury Monster, as the only hope of
the final establishment of Treasury Bank rests
upon their success annibilating existing nstitu-
tons. The. Administration has not abated one jot
of its hostility to the credit system-a system upon
which our independence was achieved, and our
country prospered till the reign of misrule com
menced.

| and Republicans And amidst such general confus-
ion in the affairs of our nation, and while the in
habiants of our country are daily becoming con-
vinced of The necessity of reform in the present
Administration, and raliying from every quarter
for the purpose of bringing it about, how increased
are the obligations of every republican. Yes, under
increased obligations we all, TO ourselves, to
country, and posterity, to enlist ferventy and
effectuay in the contest, that it may again be
said that the tories of '3S out-number the Wings
and true of our county, by as. We fear not
such result from want of political honesty O.
mongst great share of our citizens; fear it not
from a want of Philanthropy amongst many, nor
need we fear from inability on the part of the Wings
in this County neither need we at all fear such
result amongst the intelligent portion of our popu-
laton; for truly such will longer feast upon the
vain east wind drocrines Of the leading officers of
our national government Enlightened communi-
ties cannot longer be made to believe, that the MI
nority ordered and directed the present state of ar
irs,-rherefore need, in my opinion, only fear
The workings of designing demagogues, for by SUCH
be assured, many of our honest citizens have been
induced to believe, that by some lortuitous circum-
stance the minority of our country, have influenced
all its affairs; have indeed, annhated our curren-
cy have squandered away our effects; have tram
pied upon constitution and have finally COM
petely deranged the smooth, and equal course of
all our national affairs. And, sir, to prevent such
odious influence this, our help is called for;
from such considerations obligations increas
ed. doubt not, your readers generally, will hail
with JOY the sentiment expressed by your correspon-
dent, who would have majority at the next cleo
ton raised to 1000. We say it be done, and
the Wings of Caledonia will not trust be last,
least, in bringing it about. For the more eHectual
accomplishment of which, let us awake, let the
clarion of conquest be sounded long, and loud that
its exhilirating, and heightened notes may arouse
the most secluded shepherd, that he and all may
thereby, be stimulated to more active exertions.

The Loco Foco papers in this State, taking it fol
granted that their readers will not venture to have
any opinions Of their political subjects, but
will tamely submit TO adopt any sentiments that
may be prescribed to them, have put forth certain
platforms, and paraded them conspicuously from
week to week SO that there should be mist axe
who is who. And these platforms have been alter
ed from time to time the exigencies of the party
seemed to require. This is very accommodating in
these papers, because tho people might not know
what TO think upon any little change of clrcumstan-
ces, and besides would be in great danger Of differ
ing among themselves, and thus become subject to
the pains of accommodation. The latest one we
have is of several weeks standing, and Is al
ready in danger of becoming obsolete. Without
intending TO ntrude propose to furnish one which
we hnks wIll bring the professions of the party IN
20 better keeping with their practice, than any that
have happened to fall under our notice

uJThe Van BuIen papers are endeavoring to
derive little consolation from the results OF the
Rhode Island election. In consequence OF a dlVls-
ion of the Wing party respecting their candidate for
Governor, Mr. Sprague received only between 400
and 500 majority, and as the Wings elected their
candidates for Congress last fall by. 1000 majority
these papers assert that their party has gained GOO
Now, we not disposed to disturb their equinlm-
ily, for did party need consolation more
than does Mr. Van Buren's in this hour ofis humil-
ity, for so trihing matter, yet the public should
understand the true state of the case. The Wing
Senators in r.. Island, about whom there was no
serious disagreement, elected by $50 ma orIty,
which shows there has been no loss Of consequences
upon the Wing ticket more than reasonably
could be.expected where tha majority was so large
IF our political opponents can draw any thing con-
solatory by this attempt at deception, they well
come to it. ''Drowning men catch at straws."
