The Wings are disputing among them
selves, whether Clay or Harrison should
be the next President, they have, howev-
err, appointed time to hold convention
at Harrisburg, Pa, to examine the claims
of the rival candidates, Clay, Webster and
Harrison, and settle the matter. If they
will wait till 1910, the Democrats will
save them the trouble. The mask that
concealed Clay's corruption, has long
since been torn from his brow, whereon
has been written, shame and condemna-
ton. Harrison has sheen weighed in the
balance and found wanting" And the
American people have refused to receive
the suggestions and admonitions of the
'God-like Daniel, as the language of in
piration. The wings denounced the Bal
more Convention for debating to the
people, end saddling upon them Presi-
lent. Now let them try it and see if they
can by the same means make President
They will then see that it was the united
voice of the Democracy, and not the s.dic-
tation of a Caucus" that elevated Martin
Van Buren, to the Presidency, and the
same party acting in concert will defeat
their willy Vaccinations, though backed by
the power and influence of National Con
vention.

- 49, ny separating the department
altogether from the banks,-by far the
most powerful influence now known in
this country.
TENTH. 1t will render the legisla-
tive branch Independent, and thus pu-
rify the action of this department also.
Members of Congress who owe the
banks half million Of doltars-(the sun
now supposed to be owing to them,)
cannot be expected to act wisely or
freely on questionsin which these banks
arc concerned.
ELEVENTH. It will prevent the accu-
mutation of surplusses in the Treasury
for while these surplusses are III the
banks, and used as basis of discounts,
the whole power and influences ofthese
institutions will be employed to foster
and encourage surplusses. Taken out
of their vaults, and the same power and
influence will be exerted against sur
plusses.
TWELFTH. For the like reason, it
will tend to diminish taxes--for as long
the dues of Government are paid in
bank notes, the banks will be in favor
of high taxes-for the higher they are,
the better for them. But refuse their
notcs,-and they will be in favor of
low taxes, for, in such case, the higher
the taxes the worse for them.
THIRTEENTH. For similar reasons it
will tend to produce economy and re-
trenchment in public expenditures
reform much needed, and absolutely
essential to the preservation of our prin'
ciples and our liberties. An overflow
ing Treasury, and what must follow
excessive expenditures; -are the most
dangerous things to Republican prin-
ciples.
FOURTEENTH. 1t re-establshes the
Constitution, and brings us back to the
old, tried, and approved system of fl
nance, from which we ought never to
have departed.
Such in brief are our opinions ofthe
probable operation of the Sub-treasury 9
system. As to the bill itself, its provi- s
sions are few and simple. The public t
funds are to be taken out of the posses
sion of private trading corporations and
and placed in the keeping of the public
agents, appointed under the lawsloi
Congress. The money to be received
in 'tgold and silUer coins,'' as required by
the Constitution-and not the promls-
sorry notes of private individuals, Wheth-
er as persons, or bodies corporate.
This is the whole matter, and it is sur
prising to see what mighty bug-bear,
bank ingenuity has made of it.

There is nothing more ridiculous and
absurd than for man in this land of equal
rights, where merit alone confers distinc
ton, to claim for themselves superori-
ty on account of their families-boastinr
OF their ancestors which, ifthey were ira
ced back few generations, would, in all
probability be lost among a set of outlaws
who had expatriated themselves from their
native country to eyade the penalty in
CURED by their lawless conduct. This
disposition in some, to affect a superior
excellency on account of 'their family,n
is the last lingering remains of psuedo
aristocracy, which has obtained, in this
country ever since its independence. Now
it seems to me that there is no means by
which a man can make his ancestors yir-
tues his, except by initiating them, and
for one who is VIGOROUSLY swinish to be
boasting OF ancestors, and holding up their
SN"' NuohLiCa WI Nio"s 10 pFepOSIefOlS, as
it only tends to present his gross depravi-
ty in bolder relief. In fact, when hear
these parasites at the table of their grand
fathers and grand mothers, Wanting them
selves of their good birth, am led to sus-
pect their veracity, for it is a seriptural
maxim, that you must Judge tree by its
fruit, and the tree that could produce
such bad fruit must have been more
worthless than the fig bush that wither-
cd and persisted beneath the curse of our
Savior. But suppose that they have de-
'cended from Kings and Emperors, will
his make them better if they are them
elves destitute of merit? No, not if
heir ancestors had been cononized, could
hey be more esteemed except they fol-
wv their examples.
"Not ford prose, nor honied lines or rhyme,
Nor all that heralds raked from cofiined clay,
Can blazon evil deeds or consecrated crime"
cad is often found combined with silver
the ore, but when separated, it is but
ad still. When these trumpeters of their
IN fame are heard depicting tho glo-

Is the title of work just published in
New York, from the pen Of the learned
and distinguished Phrenologist, PROBES
soR CALDWELL, of Louisville Medical In
stitute. We doubt not this little volume
will receive a hearty welcome at the
hands of the scientific public. As writ
er on Phrenology, Prof. G. is more gener-
ally known in the valley of the Mississip-
pi, than perhaps any other writer on the
same subject. Of the present work, the
Louisville Journal says, at is a most live
ly, spirited, pungent volume. The great
phrenologist vindicates his cherished sci
ence with all the ardor of true knight.
and the power Of a veteran in literary
warfare. He has handled his antagonist,
DR.. SewaR, of Columbian College, without
gloves. But that part of the book, which
is most to our simple liking, is the Vale
dictory Address of the Professor to the
Medical Graduates in the Pennsylvania
University, delivered in March, 1897
The subject of it is the Phrenology of
FalSehOod and its kindred rices."
