A NATIONAL, BANK.

The Salisbury Carolnan says " 1t is understood
that Mr. Clay has written letter to friend Of his
in Mississippi IN which he for the present en:irely
abandons National Bank" Mr.. Clay, in this, on
is conforms to public sentiment, itself the offspring
of circumstances. Although, three years ago. Ma
liona Bank might have been a most valuable agent
in preventing mischief, and although, one or two
years ago, ii might have been equally as valuable as
remedial instrument, in checking the ruin which
overspread the country. yet now it is matter of
general doubt whether il could exert any beneficial
influence in restoring health TO system which we
fear is vitality diseased and stands in need of more
powerful curative. When next we have National
Bank, (i indeed that time shall ever arrve) it will
be demanded BY the South for the purpose of shield
ing it against Northern cupdity, and of restoring
somethin! like an equilibrium to the balance of trade
and resisted by the North. because Of its tendency
TO produce these results, and ihus take from that
section The advantages secured to it less by its geo
graphical position than by its cool aud cacu a,ng
and iar-reachng sagacity.

MIR. CRITTENDEN'S BILL.

Great efforts have been made by some ofthe lead
ing friends of the Administration TO pervert aud ms
represent the true character and tendency of the
bill introduced into the Senate, during the late SEES
sion OF Congress, by Mr. Criltenden, for the pur-
pose of carrying of Gen. Jackson's forgotten
pledges, to prevent the patronage of the govern
ment from being brought into conflict with the free
dom of elections Among other means resort
ed to, lot the purpose OF bringing il into disrepue
and Of covering its supporters with odium, have
been told, that it is revival of the old Sedion
law,-sometimes, too, by men who never read either
the Sedton law Mr.. Criltenden's bill. and who
know nothing of either, The ruth is, no two mea
sures can be more essentially different, nay, oppo-
site in then character The Sedi,on law was de-
signed to oircumscfbe and rsrict the free eApres-
sion of the opinions of The pcoPe-Mr, Crittendens
bill, on the other hand, is intended TO protect the
people in the free and unresrained expressions of
opinion aud to check only the office holders from an
improper exerlion Of their oiciQi influence and pat
ronage in the election of those to whom they are in
dcbed for Their Offices. We copy Mr.. Criuenden's
bill this morning, with the proceedings upon ii, and
we annex to II the Opinions OF Mr.. Jefferson, in iea-
ton 10 the practice which the purpose Of tina,
bill TO suppress. 1t will be seen that Mr.. Critten-
den and Mr Jefferson concur precisely in opinion
The only difference between them is tat the former
proposed to effect BY lae what the latter thou ht pro-
per TO accomplish by an Erecutire ordcr. The oppos-
ton made TO this measure shows how tlc affinity
there is between the Democratic party ofthe present
day and the old Jelersouian Republicans, whose
name they have stolen for the purpose of overthrow
ing their principles. 1t shows, likewise in what sig
nal contempt they hold the pledges Of Gen. Jack
son, and how rechessly they ua.nple upon all the
promises Of" Reform" which heraldcd the Hero into
the Presidential chair!

years TO the cure and removal of the causes OF

satisfaction TO make known, that he has remedy

The extraordinary reputation that DR.. Spohn' $

That so much suffering should have existed for ages

II is an admitted fact that rhs complaint, whether

primarily from the stomacli--these who think they

must they expect restoration of the natural and
