FEDERAL GAsCONADE.

In giving notice of Federal Meeting in New
York. one of the Bank organs of that city laid down
rule of conduct for said meeting. The public
and all the world besides, assured that if the
subreasury bill passes, it shall be enforced in
the city ofNew York! The federal paper says :
" Whatever may be the fate Of the coasntry il
this bill of denominations should become q la1c
and be enforced thank God a0e are, as get, free
The people hare still the right, not only to meet
and tell their representatives that they must not
presume to act in opposition to their qrishes but
they may also tell them that if they do, a IaaO so
passed shall not be obeyed-Gye shall not''
The same Federal paper moreover says, the peo-
pie will not only make themselves heard but feh
BY which to understand, that the "servile
route" are all to be "stuck'' through with the
qutlLs Of the Bank aristocracy-6dyonets are not
mentioned this time This mode of reasoning is
quite fashionable with the Federalists and is like
the first of the fifty reasons an old bachelor gave
for refusing marry. So the scrub-aristocracy of
New York begin their reasoning by saying it
|" ShGnit be enforced IN this city" Bah how will
these contemplate braggadocios help themselves :?
The proceedings of the meeting were not so
violent as the mandate of the Federal Press SEEM
ed to indicate. Itwas merely resolved, in sub
stance, that as the bankers and merchants. are
actively engaged IL, commerce and in different
enterprises, all tending to the comfort and ham
piness Of our citizens" the aforesaid bankers and
merchants aOiH hare the eight millions of the pub
lie money, (Which is the amount supposed to be
generally on hand) for the facilities of discount
and bank accommodations" to promote the COM
fort and happiness of our citizens; p particularly of
T" the citizens Of the city of NeaO York." So the
matter is entirely settled-the merchants and bank
ers of New York lOiH haze the naoney-and when
they get it, we may expect, among other important
results, that several Jew-bankers, and among them
the Josephs, will resume operations. There was
another matter settled to the entire satisfaction of
the meeting 10 New York-viz- that Mr.. Clay
shall be the next President. We think the sh1u
is little premature. Let the Federalists get a
National Bank, and then the shall of the bankers
aad merchants will come with potency and effect,
and the "servie route" will be spared the trouble
of thinking for themselves.

FEDERALISM.

II is amusing to see how some OF the papers de-
voted to the Federal Party, 6dget and fret under
their appropriate appellation. And well they may
for it is but for the people to understand the doc
trines and know the lengths to which the opPosl-
ton is leading them, under the assumed name ol
whig," for them to renounce the connexlon and
denounce their betrayers.
The Newport (Rhode IsIand) Argus and Spec
tator informs u.s. that dboLtionism is becoming es-
sentially federal in its features-that it is fast
merging in federalism, and will rise or fall with
that party. The federal party IN New England
have become practical abolitionists. The press oil
that party declaims as loudly against Mr.. Patton
resolutions, as those of the abolitionists almost
all the federal members in the House OF RePre-
sentatives voted against them. And what tnen
are the self styled "whigs?' They have joined
their political fortunes to the federalists-they rise
or fap' with them, and are neither more nor less
than federalists in practice let them profess what
they may.
We have lately seen developed the doctrines
of ancient federalism in newspapers no'c called
",phig." A writer in the New York Spectator,
modern whg paper, openly, and without reserVa-
ton, maintains the anti-republican doctrines OF
Hamilton, Jay, Adams, and others. He says that
age and loisdom have given US invaluable warn
ing and advice and that the office of "PreSident
should be hereditary % In other words, that age
and wisdom have taught us that should con-
vert our republic into monarchy The fede-
ralists took courage from their success in New
York, and came out boldly with their hateful de-
signs. They have declared that "the hereditary
principle of kings is at least good the elective
principle of republics and the free institutions Sc
cured to US by our republican Constitutions, are
fundamentally wrong.''
The Commercial Advertiser says that nation
be exception to the rule, that large part of
men have not the intelligence or dscernment which
is necessary to guide them the pursuit of their
best interests in government" That the opinions
of Mr.. Jefferson and his disciples are false and vi
sionary and forty years experience has proved that
change in our Constitution is required.
The history of old Federalism is the history of
Federalism (or whiggery) at this day. Then, as
now, they endeavored to stop the appropriations
to embarrass and denounce the Government; and
to exto the enemies of the Republic. The Fede-
ralists in Congress, who endeavored to stop the
wheels of government, in the war with great Br-
tain, are some of the identical persons who oppo-
sed the recent appropriations to carry the war
in Florida. The Federal presses endeavor to ex-
cite sympathy for the ferocious Seminoles; and
the base assassin Oceola, is eulogized by them as
the pattern of honorable chivary. BY such course
they would paralyZe the arm of the government
& do encourage the savage hordes to prolong their
hostility; and incite others to the butchery of the
peaceful families on our frontier.

GREAT MEETING I'M NEW YoRK

AmeetIng Of the mechanics and working men
OF New ork, lately took place at Tammany Hall
IN that city 1t is said there nearly four thou
sand persons present. all sufferers by the present
"net0rtoa's system ofbGnking fraud" Severalpa
tronc resolutions were passed, expressing the SEN
timents of the meeting. They object to repeal of
the law prohibiting the circulation of small bills or
even temporary suspension of its provisions
They say that neither in banking nor in govern
ment, do the American People require Monarch,
or privileged no6ilityt to regulate their affairs
that application to finance of the principle of e.
quail liberty, so long successfully applied by the
people to politics, is imperatively required. The
measure now before Congress, for effecting sepa-
ration of the Government from the Banks is en-
tirely and cordially approved. The conduct ofMr.
Van Buren, in the difficult and responsible position
in which he has been placed, deserves the warm
est admiration and the most earnest support; that
in encountering, the outset of his administration
the most powerful combination of moneyed inter
ests and political factions formed in this coun-
try, he has manifested moral courage. an energy
of character, and devotion to principle never sur
passed in our history. The fact is mentioned that
when the establishment of fiscal machinery for
the Government was the subject of discussion,
AIerGnder Hamilton presented project for Ma
tion0L Bank, and Thomas Jefferson counter pro-
ject in every material particular identical with that
now known as the Sub Treasury plan. That up
on the issue thus Joined, the original Democratic
and Federal parties first organized and now, after
lapse of nearly fifty years. we find ourselves bat
ting the spirit of aristocracy in the same ntrench
ments in which our fathers made their first stand
against its encroachments. An unalterable hostiE-
ty to a National Bank is avowed; and the arrogant
pretension and financial mismanagement Of the
late U. S Bank is severely reprehended.
The proceedings of the meeting are introduced
by the following remarks - a

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,

Feb. 12.-Mr. Wise introduced Resolution to
inquire into charges of corruption against members
of Congress, made by Correspondent of the New
York Courier and Enquirer in which it is asserted
that there is at least member of Congress who
has offered to barter his services and his influence
with department or departments for compensa-
tion." If this charge proves true, Mr.. Wise says
he is for "reform revolution, or DEATH" &C. Mr..
Ciley did not think the charges entitled to much
credit coming as they do, from an editor who had
made grave charges against an institution, and af
forwards received $52 900 from the same institution
and gave it his hearty support The debate on Mr..
Wlses Resolution continued till after six o'clock,
when the House adjourned without coming to any
decision.
Feo. l3.-The House resumed the consideration
OF Mr.. WIse's Resolution concerning the charge of
corruption made by Washington Letter Writer a
gainst a member of Congress. After some debate
Mr.. Matthew L. Davis was introduced to the bar
of this House. and the following interrogatores pro-
pounded:-

ted in Raleigh, in this matter, the Editor of the

IN SENATE.

Feb 12.-Among the petitions presented was
one by Mr. Webster, for the abolition of Slavery in
the District, signed by four thousand women. Mr..
Clay Of Alabama, inquired they were married or
single 11on,en? Mr.. Webster replied, if the Sena-
tor from Alabama were a single man, he might as
certain on inquiring of them. Mr.. Clay, of Ala
bama, said that his object was not to ascertain
aohether they had no better employment He said
it might now be seen, by recollecting the conduct
and votes of certain gentleman on recent occa-
sion, how and by whom such memorials were got
ten up.
Mr.. Grundy, from the Committee on the Judcia-
ry, reported bill to prevent the reissuing and cir
culation of notes of corporations whose charters
expired. This bill has grown out of the Presidents
Message in relation the notes of the late Bank of
the United States. The bill was made the order
of the day for Wednesday next, and ten thousand
copies ordered to be printed.
Mr.. Niles addressed the Senate in an argument
of great length and of much force and ability in
favor of the Independent Treasury Bill.
Feb. 13.-The usual number of abolition pct-
tions were presented. Mr.. Norvell said he was
charged with memorial from the Columbia Ty-
biographical Society of Washington, composed en-
trely of letter-press printers. The memorialists
FemoRSuate against the passage OF any law rccOg-
nising establishing the principle of international
copyright for the benefit of foreign authors This
society was composed of body of highly ntelli-
gent citizens as enlightened any other body of
men in the country. They were necessarily so,
from their pursuits and professions in life. Their
views and opinions, this subject especially were
entitled to peculiar weight. As this subject was
before the Committee on the Patent Office, he NOV
ed that the memorial be read printed, and referred
to that committee: the motion was agreed to-
Several private relief bills were reported. The
Senate resumed the consideration of the Independ-
ent Treasury bill, and Mr.. Niles concluded a very
able speech against the amendment of Mr. Rives
and in favor of the bill.
Feb. IA report from the Commissioner of
Indian Affairs was presented from the War Depart
ment. Sundry petitions from Pennsylvania were
presented against the annexation of Texas. Mr..
Benton offered Resolution requesting The Presi-
dent to communicate to the Senate the official re-
port of Col. Zacharie Taylor, of the first regiment
of infantry, commanding in the action of the 25th
Dec last, with the Florida Indians, and giving an
account of that action. Several Resolutions relat-
ing to private claims were adopted Mr.. Smith of
Connecticut addressed the Senate for some time
in favor of the Independent Treasury Bill.

We make no request of any editor; but should sup
