vote for that scheme Croswell hmselfs Of that class
of Conservatives. He talked against it, but acts in it's
favor.
Let us illustrate Gov Marcy, when the Sub Trea-
sury scheme frs. preached, boed and kicked like
the wild horse Mazeppa He denounced the scheme
and its architects, IN unmeasurcd terms. He blew Ben
ton, Wright, Cambreleng. and Blair, "sky high" He
approved Of the course of Messrs. Lee, Swartwout,
Jackson, Graham, Birdsa, and other New York Con-
