The following remarks from the Mobile (Ata.)
Examiner will explain themselves. We know but
little of The Examiner" but should presume from
the tenor Of its articles that it occupied indepen-
dent position in relation to political controversies
His good opinions the more grateful bee usethey
are free, and if we know ourSelf he is right in his
Interpretation.
SUB TREAsURY-W believe there is such a
thing as politicians advocating cause solely from
an impression Of its excellence The case, however
is not often to be with particularly among editors
Of newspapers They adopt the system which pre-
sens the obvious indication of being profile bic,
and always pursue il with the violence Of the most
determined and fanacal enthusiast. The opinions
of such individuals are hardly worth thought,
whilst those of one who evinces the candor OF his
own belief, will carry weight every where. Such
one in our opinion is the editor Of the Madsonan.
We know nothing Of the prospect Of his political
reward or what are his real motives OF action IL
is certain however that his PAPER bears ample EVIL
dence Of conviction, which Is paramount 10 The die
tates of mere place There is realty Of design
and certain indication of honesty m bis matter
which must have unbounded influence among the
intelligent and unprecedented observers OF political
events "For ourselves, says he, in the conclusion
Of late article upon the Sub Treasury system, our
sword is drawn forth from lis scabbard, 10 which
il shall moi return until that (schee) is overthrow
or we are vanauished-fall whomsoever may in the
! conflict

strayed away from ancient land marks and

moral courage TO take their stand TO perse-

march is onward. The people are joining US
en- masse. Hold meetings in every village,
county, and State. Have distinct party or

old JeiIersonian and Madisonian Democratic

glorious reorganization Of the old and true
Democratic party upon these principles, and
the restoration Of the ancient customs and
