Ayrynp HoNoRABLE-We received note some
time since, from Col. Besancon, editor of the Free
Trader, requesting us to make correction Of ~
por-aphical error which occurred in the publication
ofhe Democratic address. Before we received his
letter however, our extras containing the address
were struck oil, Near the bottom Of The first para
graph, read " bank federal candidate" for bank
a5,ttioa candidate" Inasmuch as The author Of the
address IS charged with having INDUCED in person
aTties, we feel bound 10 make this correction to do
justice to the parties. Mr.. Prentss cannot deny
that every aboitionist and bank fedcral'st in con
qress were oyer-anxious to vote him into seat in
that body. Where reference was bad TO the Jour
mails of The Legislature the writer speaks Of the con-
duet Of Mr. Prentiss disgracofu. Those acts
we're public acts, and Mr.. Besancon, or any other
citizen had right to anmadvert upon them and
give his approval or condemnation.

the mechanic arts, to visit Mr.. Waltha's mill, three
miles from town, where twenty Of these saws arc in
operation. Iwoull be economy in every extensive

gin house.

very Justly remarks that "i it is the duty of every
bank to redeem its notes as fast possible by every
means available, and such cannot meet ell their
notes on demand should issue post notes or checks
bearing interest. individuals are paying interest on
their debts which they cannot discharge when due
Corporations are bound to do the same BY every
principle Of equity and justice. Let the banks do
ali aeir power and the public will be satisfied"

lists, we learn from the Washington Globe, have
succeeded IN re-electing their Mayor by piu-
rafiy OF 2S2, but minority Of / II votes; and
they have secured one majority in each branch
q the common council. Last year, the present
Mayor CLARK, was elected bya plurality Of
0'352 votes, and the Federalists carried 10 Of
