THE IRREDEEMABLE PAPER
PARTY.

Mr.. BIDpLE stands at the head of the ir-
redeemable paper party of the union. lie
is its life, its vitality. He seeks, by every
means of pecuniary power and political
combination to continue the present ire
deemable and unsound condition of things
Ito prevent a resumption Of specie pay
ments-and to PROSTATE the state, the ad-
ministration, and the banks, that shall pre-
sumo, in defiance of his pecuniary and po-
litical schemes, to attempt to restore sound
ness anil stability to the currency aud busi-
prosperity to all its great interests. Such
is his game, and the game of the party of
which he is the head and dictator. As
such, it has been long known to all who
have watched his movements and the move
ments Of his leading partizans aud aitor-
neys, and it has been exposed 10 the people
from time to time. What has been hereto
fore matter of assertion (although Of uade-
niabe fact,) is now openly udmitted by the
parties themselves. 1t is now proclaimed
from the house-,ops. Mr.. Biddle's mani
festo against resumption OF specie pay
men,s, leaves no longer any thing 10 con-
lecture. 1t is the published and authorita-
live declaration of the designs and efforts
of the IRREpEEMABLE PAPER PARTY.
Mr.. CLAY is the presidential candidate of
Mr.. Biddle. As such, he will be pressed
upon the federal convention, and will be
nominated, despite of all that Messrs. Har-
rison aud Webster may do or attemptto do.
lie and his partisans play directly INTO me
hands of Mr.. Biddie. In every state, where
they hold The power, they have given TO MN
aud his bank allies, a perfect immunity oil

pursue their irredeemabie" paper policy
10 the fullest e,tenf of their designs. ln no
state have they required the banks to re.
sumo specie payments. In all by a d'reei
legislative vote, they have given h'm the
fullest license TO play out the profisa!e game
of the Irredeemable Paper party. The'wo
former were the purchased instruments Of
The Rhode-Island Republican. [volume] (Newport, R.I.) 1809-1841, 1838-05-01

Mr.. Clay and his Kentucky friends are
trying to cut loose from Mr.. Biddle. The
Bank-autocrat is getting SO unpopular with
the Independent, portion of the Federal par
y, that their candidates for public bonors
find thatthey can't rise by holding on to his
skirts. So let go is the order of the day.
The Louisville (Kcntucky) Gazette says,
/" Mr.. Biddle's letter is looked upon as ex-
ceedingly presum,uous and arrogant"
=" The whig party will not be directed by
him to aggrandize his Bank" "The
wings have lost more by the Bank than all
the good it can do for the country" Mr..
Clay, few days since, said in the Senate,
q" As for Mr.. Biddle, hang him if You please.
He belongs to Pennsylvania. We have moth
ing to do either with Nick Biddle or Nick
Bddle's Bank"-these were the very words.
Does any one believe that Mr.. Clay would
have said this, but for the late arrogant let
ter of Mr. Biddlel How much political FORE
sight the old hero exhibited, in pointing out
to the people the dangerous character Of
the late U. S. Bank, and Of its ambitious,
and unprincipled president. In the course
of his remarks, Mr. Clay enquired "whst
is he (BiJdle) to US, that he or his Bank
should be continually brought before the
Senate" The answer is plain. Mr..
Clay and his friends have long identified
with the interests of the Bank,
and its re-charter rds to have been the re-
suit of their political triumph. And when
the head of that Bank assumes TO direct
the whole banking system Of the country,
and says that the banks ARE only other
names for tho farms, the commerce, the fac
tories, and the internal Improvements Of the
other words, tina, they are the
eountry--does Mr.. Clay inquire what the
Senate has to do with Biddlc and his Bank
What would the Senate, or the House, or
the people, have 10 do with any man or set
of mep, who were endeavoring TO overthrow
our constitution and liberties

buried in her hands, her humbled and PEN
iient soul going up in prayer
The sobs OF Inez gradually subsided, and
towards morning she fell ssleep. Oh! they
who have KEEP. the vigil of fear and love by
tbs couch of the dear, can alone tell the
mingled sensations of such hours. They
stirred no. from their places, even to relieve
Catherine, upon whose bosom Inez was
leaning, lest they should break that sleep.
Deeper and deeper it grew, till they held
their breath in fear.
The sun was many hours high, when l.
nez woke from that sIumber. The physic-
ian held cordial TO her lips, and again she
closed her eyes, but smile was on her
face. He held her pulse, and notioning
them TO take advantage of this slight un-
consciousness, said softly, +" She will live !"
And one by one, they stole forth to pour
out the funess Of their hearts in prayer.

and The perfume Of fragrant flowers, borne
On ihe wings Of the wind, stole in at the o.
pen window. The rich curls that half sha-
ded Inez's yet pale cheek, moved gently as
the light breeze met them. But there WAS
joy ia her dur'; eye, and smile upon her
lip. Ernosl's hand smoothed the pillow
upon " which her head rested, and he bent
over her couch, with look of anxious love.
There was gathered round her, all that was
rich and rare, to cheer aud amuse an in-
valid. She smiled as Ernest held up his
watch, aud whispered fondly, You must
talk na longer, dearest here comes Rose"
And that once proud girl held the cooling
draug.si TO her lips, and kissed her brow,
as she thanked her sweelIy. Yes-Rose
Laurence, on her bended knees, besought
her forgiveness, aud rose not till she gave
her promise to be her sister. And in after
years, when her own form was bowed with

did she bless the hour, when he had chosen

had been many years welded.

THE LEvEE.-Tbe number of steamboats,
may be seen in froat Of the levee, but not so
many as usual at this season of the year.
This may be ascribed to the general de-
clension of commerce between the north
and west, in consequence of which the
shipments from New York, Philadelphia
and Baltimore to the west have diminished
in quantity. This of course lesseued the
carrying trade and fewer vessels we've re-
quired for transportation. The supply of
shipping is still more scanty and far from
being adequate to the wants OF commerce,
Many wide gaps are visible IN the merge OF
masts and spars that line the margin oi 'he
barbor. Freights have risen TO extravsgant
prices, to which fact alone some intelligent
merchants ascribe the present dull state OF
the markets, Spectators being unwilling,
at the exorbitant rates charged on shipments
to make investments iG produce or other
commodities to be exported. Notwithstan-
ding these untoward circumstances, an air
of hustle and animation pervades the re-
sort. of commerce. The wharves ore
croaning beneath the weight Of up country
produce, and on the levee for a mile or
more, may be seen strown along IN rich
profusion, tier of barrels, piles ofboxes and
cotton bales heaped upon cotton bales, till,
like the waves Of the sea, they swell noun
,ains high. Add to these features Of the
scene, the din and hurry and jostling Of
fearful multitude, chaffering, bargaining,
baIlooing, swearing aud rushing to and fro,
amid the ra,ting Of drays, the roar of steam
bcais and thousand other indescrii'able
noises, loud enough to frighten Mexican
blockading squadron out of it. senses, and
picture somewhat faint is presented Of
what may now be seen every day on The
levee at New Orleans.

TUESDAY, MAY 1, 1893.

In the eiua war now raging between Mr..
.,o''e and portion of the Federal Wings,
amusing to witness the ferocity with
winch they assault each other. Panics and
Pfessures, got up for political effect. are now
charged home OH the Rag emperor, and with
such force, that even breastwork Of all the
cotton bags he has speculated in and monon-
olized, to the injury of the merchant. can.
not save him. The difficulties of the ,;mss
which have been heretofore charged TO the
acts of the administration, are now acknovl-
edged to have been wi!fully brought upon
the country by the avarice and mad ambit-
ion of Biddle and his confederates; and
more wonderful than all the re.t-a portion
Of the Federal Wig press whieh has not
been bought, is free TO express that some Of
the leading measures Of the administration
are founded IN wisdom, and have warded off
calamities, which, but for those measures,
would have inflicted fatal stab on the
prosperity Of the country. As a sample of
these acknowledgements we extract a par
agraph or two from the " Boston Daily Ad-
vertiser and Patriot" of the I4th inst. This
paper, ee presume, will be taken as good
evidence.-It is a modern whig concern.
and has heretofore given countcnance and
support to whiggery "ofthe Boston stamp"
Now we have no thanks to bestow on these
gentry for their Iardy Enthusiastically
were they not made long agol Why was
it not admitted that Gen. Jackson acted
wisely in issuing the Specie Circular, and
that our present President displayed equal
iirmness and foresight in not repeating it I
If Biddle had not displayed his cloven foo,
in so shameless a manner that the moral
sense of the country could not fail to be
shocked, these precious confessions would
never have been made, and, therefore, while
we have no acknowledgements to make to
the witnesses, we wish the community 10,
note the testimony.
% Here it is
From the Boston Daily Advertiser and Patriot
With regard to the specie circular, we have
never viewed it as indefensible or unwise. At
the time it was issued, our lands were daily
being transferred. to an enormous amount,
to spectators in the West, in exchange for
the bills of Banks in any and every State
of the Union. All then nominally paid spe-
Gle; bat every one knows, and their pres
ent state demonstrates it, with regard to the
5. w. Banks, that it was but nominally
with many Of them. Lands were selling
for these bills to the amount of Is to 20
millions annually /; had they been sen, homo
for collection it would have stopped the
Banks; had they continued to be received,
they would have accumulated in the Treas
ury, and in exchange for our lands, We
should have held 20 or 80 millions of worth
less paper; even as it is, we have now from
5 to of these bills, for which we shall be
fortunate to get 50-10O."
