while the Secretary of our Democratic President
has been paying off the Congressman in gold 4
silver, the ,car soldiers Of the Rcpoise io. |
who won the liberties Of the country, nav the
very government In which Van Buren, is Pres
lcent, are paid off in paper rags.
cTWould William Henry Harrison have al |
lowed this! Harrison has the heart offs soldier |
as his father had before him, when he signed |
ms name To the Declaration of Independence, s. 1
instead Of cndeavor,ng to propitia.e the members
OF Congress with gold, he would have pointed
them to that glorious Declaration, and have as /
signed tn those who supported and defended j,
through toll and suffering and blood, the hard
money which now goes 10 swell the purses Of
the office holders. ., shame! that there should
vet be men W no hold up for the authors Of such
CRYING iuj Istice. Shame! that a party whose
experiments the currency have wei nigh
ruined IT. should vet have the hardihood 10 appro-
pirate all that as good TO themselves. and leave
the war worn veteran to shave his miserable pit
lance of paper trash before he purchase an
acre OF the land he has won bv his valor!
People of Missourio, Sons and grand sons of
the patriots of the Re, olution. What say you?
are you yet for Van Buren,, are YOU ready to
claim the hand OF Your brethren in Tennessee.
and Indiana, and Kentucky, and Ohio. and
Rhode Island, and Maine, and North Carolina,
who have broken the mlnacles OF party dcspo-
tIsm. and who now stand forth in the free aud
unconqureable spirit OF their sires. Remember,
the answer must needs rebound to YOUR honor. or
proclaim your shame .~-Nlssourian.

the street for two per cent. below Safety Fund
county bank bills, which is four and n half per
cent. below specie; and with the brokers they
sell Ole and half per cent. below paper money.
In Baltimore the postmaster has decided that he
will not take them in pay for POSTAGE; and, we
presume that if any body asked our city post
master to give him the change for 50 or 500
Treasury note, in order to take out of II SIX
eight dollars for hostages, accommodating as he
is, he would laugh at him for the humor OF such
practicable Joke.
THIS condition. however. of the currency of
Administration, has n moral in il. About
eight years ago General JACKSON opened war
upon the currency which, for the extent of ter
ritory in which 1t acted, the very best on
the face of the earth, upon banking institution
also, which. iii spite of Government, now a.
mong the very first Powers of the world, all the
time making upon it, has a more extended
credit. and is better known for that credit, the
world over, than when the war was begun. The
Administration promised to give us shelter
CURRENCY and 1t refoed this institution, which,
however, State that has voted for sixteen years
either for General Jackson or his successor, I'M
mediately took up. and has long sustained, and Is
yet sustaining, with vigorous support OF the
, good men of all parties. In the mean time, the
Administration has been the means of initiating
the currency of the State banks SO that they
! burst, and Of being itself reduced to bankrupt
y cy, and of calling upon Congress to loaf IT the
= credit of $40, 100000 in Treasury notes, which
e Treasury notes sell in the streets two pei
cent. below the verytrags Of thesrag barons whom
n IT has been abusing while these Erag barons' vii
not even condescend to take these Treasury notes

II The mora! of this is, that cithert the Govern
r. ment, ignorant of the effect Of It's experiments
g and its 'expedicnts,' tina, it means to chea,
= and defraud the People, by vitiating the currcn
II cy. Upon whatsoever horn of tho dilemma its

; iacy may hang, and welcome.
