From the National Iateiiigencer.

The latest project of The Administration, for reg
ulatng the fiscal alta IRIS of the Government, yester
day passed the Senate by ma orty OF five votes
That bill is, in brief, an attempt To empower The
President of the u. States, Of his mere Will and
pleasure, to do that which the Sub Treasury bill
proposed to do by legislative action. In other
words the Senate now asks OF The House ct Repre-
sentatves grant permission OF The United states
to do the vely thing which the Senate has asked the
House Of Representatives to do, and which the
House of Representatives has twice soemnly de-
termned to have no hand in doing That is the
short OF 1t.
The bill proposes. in TRUTH TO RESTORE THE
REIGN OF JACKsoNIsM IN ALL ITS " GLORY.
1T proposes to invest the PRESIDENT with
controlled power TO prescribe what sort Of money
may be received in payment ofdues 20 the Govern
ment, to the extent OF requiring Of he choose) ths
revenue of twenty or thirty millions OF dollars a
year TO be paid e1ctusiuety specie
1t then proposes leave il entirely at the discre-
ton of the President to direct lohere and by aoh0m,
and in what amounts and proportions, TINS specie,
or whatever other money, shall be hcPt 30 that,
as under the rel gu above referred TO, the money
may be lent, by half millions AT time, or by ten
times that amount at lime, to any bank or indl-
vidual whatsoever whom the Executive may choose
to trust, to proptate, to buy up, as men have
been heretofore propitlated or bought up by means
of the deposiles. 1t proposes, OF course, also, to
empower the President to punish, By Il withdrawal
of the depostes any such depository his dispeas-
ure may chance to light upon, just as the President
OF the United States visited his dispeasure the
Bank of the United States by the removal from it
of the public deposes.
Finally, alter clothing the President with this
more than regal power, the bill proposes place il
all within the cover and protectien Of THE VEro
For, the power which 1t Is now proposed to confer
upon the President if the House concur with the
Senate, will be beyond the reach of remedy by leg
slation, so long a single more than one
third of the members i'll either House of Congress
shall stand by the President in the exercise of it,

you WELL when found the papers oflate years,
in Vermont, after long spell of peace and quiet,
beginning to call names land say federast democrat,
tory, &c, just looked round to see where the old
soldiers of the revolution werc found most of them
opposed to Andrew jackson In The State OF Yer
mont, | found that Gov. Galusha, Gov. Butler,
Gov DIN, and Gov. Crafts, all well known TO be
old democrats of 1879, and the three first revou-
tionary soldiers; say when found them opposed
to Gen Jackson, was sure that to be opposed did
not make man federa'ist AS in 1879 so in '2S
and 80 they democrats still. Well, just
turned over the leaf, to see who the supporters of
Gen. Jackson were; well on the lead, in the State
of Vermont, | found Gov. Chittenden the ever to
be remembered proclamation Governor of 1873 and
also his well known federal aids, Stephen Haigh,
and Amos w. Barnum, and these backed up by that
most modest of all federalists, Thomas Emerson.
These and the whole leading host of federalsts, /
found supporting Gen jackson, while opposed to
him were the great mass of revolutionary soldiers
and those known democrats OF 1912. Now, MIR.
Editor, most of those in Vermont, (but not so many)
who supported General Jackson, support Van
Buren,, and though some States and mnltudes in
many other States, have joined the opposition to
Van Buren,, still in Vermont the old
leading federallsts of 1872 have tackled them
selves on to the car of the magician, and as the
proverb insists a man is known by the company he
keeps, cannot possibly see how the Star can avoid
being federal paper, since it is in strict political
union with the leading federaIists oflSl2 and 1873.

Merritt, of Mobile, who reached this city OH
Thursday evening from the South, and procee-
ded eastward yesterday morning Mr.. nj. EN-
barked on board the Pulaski with his wife and
child, and by this most melancholy event, which
has brought bereavement and griefto many II

plosion took place, Mr.. M. INDUCED the hope
that the boat would continue to float, and after
Fastening to his wife and child IN the ladies cab
in, returned towards the middle OF the boat to
ascertain more distinctly the extent ofthe dam
age, and take such measures as might be in the
power of the passengers to adopt, in order to
prevent the water from coming in on the side
where the boiler had exploded.
"A few moments however served to convince
him that the boat must sink;-he found the wa

through the bottom, and all hope of checking its
ingress was abandoned. He then fastened back
to the ladies' cabin, and requesting them to

Resolved, That the spirit Of the times-the ardor
which every where actuates the friends of reform
the net gain of 900 last year-aII sufficiently
evince that Caledonia County and will this
year be rescued from The rule of Locofocosm.
Resolved, That the spirit manifested at the late
District Convention holden in this District and n,
the State Convention recently held at Montpelier,
afford guarantee that Vermont will not dis
appoint the Just expectations of the Country-but
will again seal her condemnation of CORFU pit Ad-
ministraton by an overwh elCiing maj ority
Resolved That the signal failure of the Admin
istration to carry the obnoxious Sub treasury Bill
after a months drill affords satisfactory evil
dence OF the loss of moral power it has sustained
through the influence Of the electons-though such
a measure shows :he desperate character of its
thors and the danger of !ntermIiting for moment
the most vigorous efforts for their final overthrow.
Resolved That cordially approve Of the nom
inatlon Of HIS Excesncy SILAS H. JENISON
for Governor, DAVID NJ. CAMP for 1t. Governor
and HENRY F. JAMES for Treasurer, as made by

Vermont.
Resolved, That we abhor such Inconsistency
il manifest in the sentiment expressed at the Lutte
Van Buren, Convention holden at Danvlle, to wit
sentiment wreakng vengeance upon the tongue
OF him that will not vindca,e the of the AT
rican, and at the time struggling like the
highwayman to avoid the hand of justice, in de-
fence ofan Administration, the Chief Magistrate Of
which is pledged not only to support African slave
ry, but to support measures directly calculated to
enslave the American people.
Whereas Martin Van Buren, is reputed to have
declared that he would sink swim with the Sub
Treasury, therefore,
Resolved, That Martin Van Buren,, as he cannot
swim, be permitted to sink.
Resolved, That will use all proper exertons
to promote the election Of CHI ARIES DAVIS and

WRIGHT's BILL.-For the better understanding
OF the debate in the Senate Saturday, il proper
to state that the Depose Act of June 1886 provides,
among other things, that the bills of no bank, which,
after March, 1886, had issued paid out notes of
less denomination than flee dollars, should be re-
ceived in payments at the treasury and further,
that no bank, which, after the passage of the act,
should issue or pay out notes less than tfrc dollars
should be selected as depository of the public
money.
The consequence ofthis latter clause is that in
New England only the Merchants Bank of Boston,
and possibly one or two country banks, in New
York only the Manhattan Company, can be select
ed deposite banks, since all the other banks have
ISSUED notes under five dollars since June, 1886;
7ndindeed, under the ''paying OUT provision, even
the banks above excepted are probably disqualified;
and most likely, all the banks in the Union.
The object of Webster's amendment was, (and it
vas one of the clauses included in HE original bill
% get rid of the restriction. BY voting down this
mendment and substituting for it repeal fall the
clauses OF the Deposit Act relating TO the public
money in local banks, the Loco Focos of the Sem
le nave evinced their determination to have Uir
