what principles to advocate, or whether
to join the Wings or longer to remain
with their old associates All-savea few
who styled themselves Conservatives
declared that the State Bank system would
not answer, and none dared declare for,
or advocate the Sub-Treasurv scheme,
whilst numbers were wheeling round
and ranging themselves under the ban
ner of the Wing party as converts to the
policy of National Bank
1t was this open desertion of his parti-
zans that induced Mr.. Van Buren, to con-
vene Congress, which gave him the oP-
portunity of uniting his followers upon
the present odious and monarchical policy
of the sub-Treasury scheme From the
Message on that occasion, and some let
ters from the Hermitage, the party re-
ceived their cue, for the denunciation OF
all State Banks, which they have execu-
ted to the letter.
They abandoned their pets, leaped
over and with wild hurraw usurped the
opinions and principles of the Wings,
with regard to the State Bank system,
and have labored assiduousIy to identify
them with the State Banks, and convince
the people that they were the cause OF
all the confusion, distress, aud the worth
less trash in the shape of individual
shin-plasters and notes of broken banks
that fills the land, when they should bear
the approbium themselves. They are
truly the Rag BarOnS, and not the
Whigs,-their rags are as thick in the
country as the locusts of Egypt, and we
as one of the Wings object to having
their cast-of garments thrust upon US
whether we will or not.
The Wings always contended that
State Banks could not furnish a sound
and good currency-that they would not
answer as receivers of, and disbursers of
the public funds placed in their vaults
that commerce would be Frustrated, and
the business of the country paralzed.
The Jackson party took issue upon
these questions, and what has past, and
is now daily occurring, tells who was
right and who was wrong.

POST MASTER LOUISVILLE, KY.

VI II
Messrs. Isacc n. Halbert and Andrew
T. Heth, late Clerks in the Post Office
at Louisville, Ky. have made lengthy
publication IN the Journal of the 18th
inst, in relation to the peculation of Mr..
Campbell, upon the Post Office Depart
ment. They establish the facts hereto
fore charged, which leaves the Post
Master in no very enviable situation. 1t
appears that Mr.. Campbell was in the
habit of requiring them to sign 'blank
receipts" for their salaries, and then
filling up the blank with more than he
had contracted to pay them. The amount
he has thus overdrawn, cannot be accu-
rately stated, but it is clearly establish
ed that while the practice of taking
"5lank receipts" continued, he overdrew
at the rate of from $50 to $3.50 pei
quarter, for each Clerks salary. There
werefive Clerks in his office, who were
thus required to sign "blank receipts,
making an aggregate of something like
$4,000 per annum, that this Sub-Treas
