Theory and Practice. -Afterthe close of some SAN
culinary political struggle, when the dust kicked up
by the bloodess belligerents become settled, and
fair chance OF accommodating the Of action is
afforded it is well worth the while Of the curious
to examine the grounds for the purpose discovering
the tact and peneralshp displayed, learn lessons
if possible, which may be Of service the recur-
renee of similar ARRAYS.
When our State elections were pending, the tories
aware that their old tricks must be applied with
more than their usual adrotness in order to secure
the election of their candidates, mounted Nathan
Smile on the pony of Bank Re(orm,' and made
their dying struggle ESQ far as Vermont is concerned
TO ride him rough-shod without saddle or bride,
over the necks Of his betters, into the gubernaoral
chair "Smilie and bank reform" for time sup
piled the nlace Of the Gospel, and every candidate
lor the suifrages Of the people was baptized into
this creed over and again with all the ceremo
NOUS sanctity which designing hypocrisy could as
sumo. Ii blazed under the editorial head of every
Van Buren, paper in the state. was trumpeted from
mouth to mouth, and appealed to, like Corolanus
wounds to the citizens of Rome, to excite their
affection. But when the bank question up before
them in the legislature and when, measures were
Gle basis, a specimen Of their honesty is exhibited
in the conduct of one of their leading men, and is as
pointedly opposed it can be to every effort to
render these institutions secure.
Mr.. Senator Curtis is the man we are talking
about. Debating upon the passage of the chapter
of the revised statutes relating to banks, and in
swcr to the polite, plain common sense remarks Of
Mr. Pierpoint, who sustained the position that banks
should be based upon a real instead of nominal cap
ital, and that the whole capital on which the CHAR
grant 81 should actually be paid i'll in gold and
silser instead of part money ami part promises, Mr.
Curtis said he would not its passage because Of
this rery requirement. Mr.. Pierpont said bank
charter ought TO be granted for hundred and
fifty thousand dollars capital, when in reality it had
but fifty thousand but Mr.. Curtis thought it should,
and the only defence offered was, that tt couid ac-
conmoda'e applicants for banks great deal better
This is Bank Re orm' with vengeance, and
it should be preserved relic of 'the party" when
it is dead and gone.

Yrs AND DowSs.-But a few weeks since and
most Of the agricultural products Of the country bore
an exceeding high price, and there good deal
Of grumbling among the lazy non-producers because
the farmer got pretty well paid for his labor. There
was even press for almost every commodity the
agriculurisi raised, with the exception of WOOL and
that was about high enough. Now every thing is
nat-yery low prices comparatively, and no market
for any thing in the produce line, only what is
essary for immediate consumption. Manufacturers
and mechanics doing business small scale have
to come in for their share ofthc reyerses. No mar
ket nor no sale ofcloths and factories, it is said
curtailing and stopping in many places. The
mechanics, likewise can III nothing into money,
collect nothing, and hence can pay Nottingham
when a little involved, unless they stand strong,
they bounced upon by the merciless creditor and
broken up in business.
How long this unhappy state Of things will last,
is exceedingly doubtful The whole country for
long time has been sorcy afflicted with these sud-
den APPS and dorns, and ruinous fluctuations in ev-
cry thing pertaining business Politics and par
ties too have been and continue be as unstable
prices and the money market.
Now, we appeal TO every candid reader, of all
parties, whether it was so in tbs days Of Jefferson
Madison, Munroe, and The Younger Adams, wher
the wings constituted The crew Of the great naions

HENRY CLAY.

MgssGchuseifs EIecffoH.--Al vet rests IN doubt IN
relation to the result Of the election in this our old
native State. Il is agreed, however, on all hands,
that II the scattering votes do not prevent Morions
election no must be elected. because he has plu-
ralty over Everett varying, according TO the differ
cni imperfect roiurns from 300 TO about $50. There
appears TO be decided Wing majority OF represent
a,ives returned elecied-yei there are quite num-
Ter of towns from which there are no returns and
in many others no choice was effected including l2
members in Boston The vacancies were TO be
filed yesterday Such, also is the state Of the case
in some measure, relative the Senate, except in
the comparative number OF members alrea elect
ed BY the returns there is said to be exact tie
between the parties, 10 and l6, Heuce it will be
seen, there are many vacancies TO be filled in the
Senate, the political character Of tina, body, well
rs that Of the counsel, depend upon the House
And perhaps that nj the governor and all will de-
pend upon the vacancies TO be filled in the House
The House of representatives consists of abou,
500 members usually. The Senate Of 40 The
House supplies any vacancies that shall exist in the
Senate and the Senate thus repenished chooses the
Governor, when there is no choice from four Of the
highest candidates voted for Ivy the people. OF
course the whole political character Of the legisa-
tire will now depend upon the result of the supple
meniary elections Yesterday. Hence the anxious
reader must have patience another week. when i,
may be known in whose hands the government will
rest another year. To make the best of it, the
Wings have unguardedy and unwisely suffered the
enemy 10 enter their citadel and throw it into great
confusion, if he does not completely rout it. And
though it is well understood that national politics
had little or nothing to do with this sad reverse OF
the Wings, We, it will he claimed great political
triumph, and the ultimate result might be exceed
ingly disastrous TO the State and nation. Hence
immense responsibility rests somewhere and
unless the real democracy Of the state from
its present supnc state and unite on the weightei
matters of the state and nation the state will sinh
into rcproach for a season, and be subject To be
scouiged by tho tyrants which have the assendcncy
IN the nation
The Boston Atlas hasroturns of 4i9 members
ofwhich NUMBER the editor claims Wings 23i
and gives to the loco focos 2l5
giving the Wings majority of 10
Thiry-one towns remain TO be heard from, entitled
to choose 90 members, but it is supposed that they
have not chosen much above 90, and those nearly
equally divided between the two parties in the
towns where there were no choice there Sc mem
bers to choose including the 10 from Boston.
The sion Post, ~ b. estimates the par,ie:
somewhat differently and claims majority, ant
also the election Of Morton to the office ofGoyernor
But we think all as yet is in the fog.
