Of society. l belong only to those privileged
classes to which you may all belong in your turn.
They not privileges created for but created
by us. Our wealth is our own; we have made
IL. Our ease is our own; We have gained 1t by
the sweat Of our brows, or by the labor Of
minds. Our position in society is not conferred
upon u.s. but purchased by ourselves-with our
own intellect, appIica ton, zeal, patience and in

LEGATION, necessary to your advancement. This
is not our fault, but your own. You wish to
become rich. as some do 10 become wise:
but there is no royal road to wealth any more
than there is to knowledge. You sigh for the
ease and the repose of wealth, but You are not
willing to do that which is necessary to procure
them. The hushandman who will not till his
ground shall reap nothing but ihistles or briars.
YOU think that the connections in human society
are useless and instructed if You do not become
wealthy and powerful by the changes; but what
right have you to expect, you idlers and drone.
in the hiv that you sha! always be fed on the ho-
ncy and the sweets OF life? What right have you,
who do nothing for yourselves, your families, your
communes, your ACCOMPLISHMENTS, departments,
your country. your kind, to imagine that you
will be selected by them for your favor, their con-
fidenre, and their rewardss

an Aristocrat-and, please God, hope always to
remain So The distinctions in human society

against one OF The suggested propositions
OF Mr. Preston, that the notes Of non.spe-
cie-psyIng banks should be received tenn
porarIly by the government. as a DANCE
rous precedent. and as probably no, prac-
lIcally better Than the provision os the
substitute that such bills should be re-.
ceived when the banks should resume.
Nc. Niles spoke chiefly in reply 10 Mr..
Davis, especially characierizing The banks
as trading companies, with which The
Government have nothing to do. and de-
nyIng emphalIcally that the country was
suffering distress or embarrassment.

ment, last discussed, was not before The

ken on The amendment which he had &C.

ed by the substitute.

he had obtained that most states own stock
IN nnc or more Of their respective banks,
Mr. p. wilhdrea the latter part of this

qn're that the Opposite banks should be
selected from those banks the stock ol
which is owned in whole or in par, By
