Yours IN bastc.

We commend The following article
I from the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle, TO
| the notice Of those political wlseacrcs
who have recently discovered that n
! United States Bank unconstitutional,
aaitsouihrp, and even anii-rcpuJH.
con. Consistency is a rare jewel!
Strange things will happen. In
1921, the Legislature Of South Caro-
lima passed prcmbIc and resolutions,
in reply to a resolution from the Lo-
gislature of Pennsylvania, proposing
an amendment to the Constitution, SO
as to take away from Congress the
power to incorporate National Bank,
or any bank except within the Dis
trict of Columbia. The Legislature
of South Carolina, in its reply to this
proposition, said, "that as Congress Is
coastitutioaaliy rested ,cih the right 10
Incorporate q Bank, u uould be unri@
anil mpolitic to restrict us operations
withiR such Maroon limits as the Dix
btct Of Columbia.n A resolution is
before the Legislature of South Caro-
lima, now in session, and will no doubt
be passed, declaring National Bank
unconstitutional and merpedicnt. WEI
should like to see the yeas and nays
both in 1881 and in 1887.
But this is. not the only strange
thing that has happened, Wilson !
Lnmpkin and Alfred Eco;.tuiioert are
mar the Senator's in Congress from
Georgia. and are heraded forth to the
world as "anti-United States Bank
men," both. upon the grounds Of its
"unconstitutionaIityn and incxpedien-
cy. Now it SO happens that both
these gentlemen were members of
Congress in 1916, and both voted for
the bill chartering the United States
Bank! Aye, gentle reader, they both
voted to give life and being to that
"Monsterm
But this is still not the only strange
thing that has happened. The bill
char.erlng the United States Bank in
1916, was passed by amaiority of only
nine votes in the House of Represent. |
atlves. OF the members from South
Carolina, SEVEN out of eight, with
MIR. Calhoun and Mr.. Lowndes at
their head, voted Cor it! Had these
seydn voted the other way, tie bill
,coald hare been LOST OF the men,
bers from Georgia, FIVE out of sir
voted for i'll These five were Wilson
lamp IN. Alfred CuMbert, John For
Syfh, Richard Henry Wilde and Ed
'card IeDar! Had these five voted
against the bill, IL would haze been LOST!
Thus, elthsrGeorgia or South Carolina
could have prevented the charter
but they voted for it, and SO did a ma.
Joriiy of the members from the South
ern States, while it was opposed by a
majority of the members from the
Northern Statesl 1t was then a re
Puotlcan medsure-the measure of a
republican apmlnistration-but now
II any man in the South ventures the
humble opinion that such an nstitu-
tlon IS necessary to carry on the fs-
cal concerns of the nation, and to aid
our commerce, be is denounced and
damned from Dan to Bcersheba as a
vile tederalist, plotting against the
rights and interests of the South!

CANApA.-The Patriots, nothing
daunted by their many recent disas-
ters, are still determined to maintain
"the unequal strife" God grant them
success! We perceive that they are
constantly receiving new accessions
to their ranks; and many individual.

deferred, by the fear Of a British
natter, from rendering assistance more
substantial than mere alp service"
CRpM IS among us; and many a
proud crusty bachelor has felt the
pangs of his arrow! Some have
appealed, for a remedy, to the altar.
Others, we fear, will have recourse to
the same thing, pronounced with a
Yorkshire accent-that is to saw. a
halter. But our hearts desire and
praye for these old teliows, is that they
may be married.

Mr.. Editor-We boys want you to
say something about our Spelling school.
We hold them very often at the school
house, at our end of the Town, and il
we do not improve it is not because we
do not try. The fellows in Perrysburg
gave us challenge to 60 over and have
a spelling match with them. We have
been, twice, and the way we showed
them how to spell, is not to be beat in
the Elementary, nor in Cobb, nor in the
Dictionary, and if they want any more!
just tellthem to give US challenge, and
we are on hand.

He could besentrusted with no business
for he was never free from intoxication
sufficiently long to transact il. Indeed,
SO seldom was he free from liquor, that
the Towns people gave him the title of
Seldom Sober--and by this cognomen he
was known till the day ofhis death; yea,
even to this day, it is significant bye
word through all that country. For
several wears he continued to subsst on
the charity Of his relatives, but finally
became SO great sot, that they entire
" disowned him. His poor old broken
hearted father alone would harbour him,
but his gray hairs were soon hurried to
the grave il sorrow; and then SELDOM

and dlespised by society, he wandered a.

Twenty-Fifth Congress.
SECOND SESSION.

BY express, the Columbus Journal &
Register received slips from the Balti-
more papers containing the proceedings
of Congress on the Sth and 9th.
On Thursday, Mr.. Hubbard conclu-
ded his argument in favor of the Sub.
Treasury scheme. During his remarks,
he mentioned in an approbatory manner
the charge of the President in his last
message, that the result Of the election
IN New York was the result ofthe exer-
tons Of the New York Banks. This
called Nj. Talmadge to his feet. He
showed that there had been greater
loss to the administration in counties
where there were no banks, than in coun-
ties where there were. Sir, said Mr..
Talmadge, there may be an excuse for
this declaration, when it is made by the
organ of the government--there may
be an excuse for it when it comes as it
does from the Loco Foco organsin in New
York ~ but when it comes from the Pre-
sident of the United States, hear the
charge with astonishment. Sir, contin.
ned Mr.. T., Irepel it with indignation.
| repel it, although it comes from the
President himself. He should have
known the people Of New York better,
and he did know better. | call upon
every Representative from New York
to bear witness to the falsity Of the
charge. Come from what source il tmay
be ii high or low, from the Executive,
or one Of the least exalted, | shall repel
it.
We shall give more extended no.
tice Of the remarks Of Mr.. Tallmadge
hereafter. He addressed the Senate a.
bout one hour. When he sal down, Mr..
Wright remarked that this was not the
proper time to refer to the language Of
the President. Mr.. Clay arose and
thanked Mr.. Tallmadge for his rebuke
of the President. The remarks Of that
individual, said Mr.. c., were unprece.
dented and undignlied. Mr.. Wright in
declining 10 enter into defence of them
had shown that the better part of val.
or, was discretion." Sir, said Mr.. Clay
| / solemnly declare, that if the President
had said Of the elections in Kentucky
what he has said OF the elections in N
York, / would not have suffered one
hour to have passed over my head, with
out having introduced a resolution be.

THE Quo WARRANTo LAw.-This bill
which provides means for an investigation in
to the powers, acts and privileges Of corpora
tons, and which is merely re-enactment Of
the rules Of the Common Law, and almost a
transcript Of the Quo Warranto Law of New
York, has created deal Of clustering among
the Democratic members of the Legislature,
as well as in some other quarters, where its
provisions might possibly interfere with per-
sonal interests. A law Of this kind providing
means for an inquiry into the authority by
which corporate privileges are holden, and
prescribing means Of redress when they over
step their powers, or commit a breach Of their
charters, has long been a desidcratum with
the members of the legal profession in this
state, and SO far from being the terrible thing
1whichit has been represented, is one Of the
most valuable and salutary additions to our
statute which could have been made.

The editor of the Boston Courier treats the
clustering threats of dismemberment of the
Union in the right vein, and has set himself
manfuly to the task of proving that old Mas
sachusetts, for one, can do very well without
the South. He says, "It is believed, from
what is known, that the additional value given
to the raw materials, by the creative industry
of the people of Massachusetts,, is at least
equal to the value of the entire crops OF any
of those states, whose staple articles consti-
tute the most prominent objects Of our nation
al export" If active and intelligent indus
try--an industry capable Of seeking new chan
nels when the old have become obstructed,
can render people Independent, Massachu-
setts is so. Take away from her the sugar
and moIasses of the south, and she will COM
pete with that country in sugar Of her own
manufacture. Take away the cotton, and
silk looms will fill her manufactures. Cut Oh
the supplies of grain, and a surplus Of wheat
will rise from hersoil. Even the rugged rocks
that disHgure her lands are source OF wealth,
and the broken fragments Of winters chain
are gold in the pockets Of her citizens. Such
country can never be poor such popula-
tion never will be dependent.
