.s From our Sunday MsrAsg Eddenl II 49,
Meeting Of Mechanics at National Hall, Ca
+. .a.a nal street, en- Tuesday Evening".
The public meeting Of the Mechanics and ci,i-
zens of New York. opposed to tbs sub-treasury pro-
ject has excited the gall and apprehension Of slam,
Bang & Co.. and all the brooches patched politicians,
who see in the continuance of public distress IA
vorable opportunity Of fishing to advantage in
bled The conduct of the latter is pre- poster
Gus the extreme; they are aware that while, the
small note bill is in operation the city must necessa-
rily be flooded with the direst and fmsest rags in
every respect and yet they strenuousy oppose that
relief which can oaly be afforded by ludicous re-
peal Of an obnoxious, because destructive statute.
They the misery that has been occasoned by the
prohibition of small notes. the adulteraton and cor
ruption Of the circulating medium by the influx Of
suspicious, rredeemabe, and spurious eastern paper
yet they oppose the only measure that will have a
salutary effect and be almost of immediate benefit
IN its operation. Mn
We trust therefore that the sound and reason
of the community will speak its will tomorrow even
ing in plain and unequvocal language, and teach The
spouters and political leaers that clamor in the train
of Slam & Co.. that their inkerng is not wanted,
il makes more noles thnn it mends. Locofocosm,
overlaid with infdelty and lax morality must neces-
sarly be hateful to those whose hands are hardened
with honest industry; and who look upon the happi-
of their families and the comfort of their homes
as dependant upon the working of rational system
of government with honesty for its basis and pru.
dence for its rule of action.
