JOHN FORSYTH.

Democrats of Greene. we this week present
YOU with the name Of the Hon. John FORSYTH,
as suitable person 10 be nominated by the
Democratic National Convention for the high
and responsible Office Of Vice President. We
do so in conformity to your own wishes, know
ing him TO be deserving Of the support and
warmest feelings Of every true and genuine
Republican in this happy land. He has proven
himself true TO the cause OF Democracy and his
Country. With frmpess which could not be
shaken, and a faiihfulness which faltered not,
he has dared to vindicate the rights Of his coun-
try, against the vile mach chInations Of its sworn
political enemies. The new and trying circum-
stances which brought the illustrious Hero OF
New Orleans, Andrew Jackson, into power,
served TO demonstrate TO the world the pure
and dlsnterested patriotism Of the champion OF
equal rights, the Hon. John Forsyth. Then
il was that he developed traits Of character.
which render him worthy Of your admiration
and affection. Al a period like this, when the
patriotic individual, whom you had called TO
preside over the destines Of this nation, was a.
bout to be forsaken by his frlends-when there
was scarcely 10 be found a man possessing suf-
ficient courage and frmness to vindicate his
character from the rude blasts of federal dss-
peradoes and advocate the principles maintain
dfew Jackson. Mr.. Forsyth came forward n the
defeUce Of his country's rights, and advocated
the cause Of his abused and prosecuted county.
He has ever proved the same firm and consls-
tent Republican. With abilities never surpass
ed, he has for many years filled the office of
Secretary of State, with honor to himself and
to the satisfaction Of his friends. In the rer.
formance Of this arduous task he has blended
unaffected courtesy wirh the dignity of the off
Ger, aud the penetrating sagacity Of the states
man. He is a Republican OF. the genuine
school-a friend and supporter Of the present
Admnistration-uncomp and firm in
his opinions and prlnciples-plain and demo-
cratic in his manners and deportment-of integ-
rlty unlmpearhable-o pairiotism-of public
character without stain. Cheerfuily. in sup
port of such man, we believe you will rally
under the banners Of the Republican Phalanx.
We invite you TO the conflict. The times call
for your scquiescence. Union and harmony
among Republicans is all that is necessary TO
ensure a great and glorious triumph.

The effect of the refusal Of the Rhode Island
Banks to meet their engagements. upon the
character Of the state. may be seen by perusing
the following articles:
From the n. Y Journal of Commerce.
The Philadelphia and Providence papers are
amusing themselves with gossip stories relating
to the payment of specie BY our Banks. We
dare say they tell tbem as they heard them. but
they must be aware that such stories are very
liable to be mere carlcatures. According TO
the best of our knowledge and belief, the banks
OF this city pay all their Obligations in specie,
when required, as truly and as promptly as they
ever did. or as the Philadelphia or Providence
Banks ever did. And it seems to us il would
be quite as we'll for the Banks Of those cities.
after suspendug specie payments themselves.
TO lock at home and keep their agents at home,
as to be engaged in an attempt 10 drag others
into the abyss which they have themselves Gre
ated. Ii our Banks are unable 10 discount as
freely as they could wish, and as the commu-
nifty needs. this is the principal reason of it,
viz. that Banks and the agents and runners OF
Banks which have suspended specie payments,
demand specie for nearly every dollar Of New
York money they can lay their hands on
From our own citizens there is comparatively
little demand. Even the Loco Focos proper
have so much confidence in the ability and de-
termination OF our Banks TO continue specie
payments that very few OF them call for species;
and We must say that in general they appear
desirous TO sustain the Banks in the position
they have taken. The enemies Of continued
specie payments, we repeat are not Loco Fo-
cos. but Bankites; men and institutions who
having ceased to fulfil their oblig gations, appear
to cherish fiendlsh desire to see all other in
stitutions reduced to the same level; and use
means accordingly. Mean and contemplate
n, such conduct is, we feel assured that IT will
fail OF its object. II may indeed cause distress.
(if that is any comfort TO the parties who occa-
sion i'll but this distress will fall, aud does fall,
not so much upon Banks as upon individuals.
The lash over-reaches the Banks, and falls up
on the merchants.
We do not think there has been very great
amount Of specie drawn from our Banks on
Providence acoount.-but the sister city"
has been aud is doing her prettiest. II She
should fail in her object. land she will.) il will
not be comfortable thing to reflect on, for
men Who have not drawn their code Of morals
from beneath. lfby any possibility they should
succeed, it would be still worse.

Hol1 murh better than obtaining money BY
fraudulent pretences The Providence banks
refuse TO pay a dollar Of their debts. which.
they say. they are fully able TO do. and at the
same time are sending to Boston and New York
to draw specie from the hanks there, and are
actually selling specie drafts on those cities at
FIVE per cent premium. Thus they have de-
preciafed their own currency in order to pocket
the difference in collecting the debts due them,
while they pay their own debts in rags, or not
at all. Is this mercantile honor. or manufsc-
turer's honor. or banking honor l-or is it not
even below par when compared with honor
among thieves l-BOston Post.

From the n. Y. American.

The arrest and imprisonment Of the two
Spaniards who were on board the AmiStad, al
the suit OF the blacks whom they held 10 sla
very, naturally attracts much attention. The
case was yesterday partially discussed. before
Chief Justice Jones. on an order to show cause
why these Spaniards should not be discharge ed
from Imprisonment. After argument, ths
Cour said il wonId give decision in the course
of day or two.
II is not 10 be disguised, that the arrest and
imprisonment of the two Spaniards, startled
many of those who yet were anxious that the
negro captives OF the Amistad should not again
fall into slavery. 1t looked, at first blush. like
a vndlctive proceeding and Of the feeling oc
casioned by such view Of the case, the Span
lards themselves appear 10 have been fully a
ware, and not unwilling to avail themselves. BY
determining 10 60 TO prison. instead of remain
ing ont of it, as they had the option and oppor-
tunity to do, on bail. Ii is, therefore. the more
important, perhaps, TO state that the true mo-
tive for insttutng proceedings against Messrs.
Ruez and Monies, was to enable the counsel OF
the blacks to bring before jury the question
of their slavery, and generally the facts CON
nccted with this remarkable case. lu no other
way, as we are informed, could the ineslinable
privilege Of trial by jury be secured to these
blacks; and therefore il was, and not from any
vindiciive feeling. that the action for trespass,
against Messrs. Ruez and Moutes was institu-
ted.
Viewed in this light. the proceeding ceases
to be Of questionable nature: it could not, in
deed with any justice 10 the weaker and op-
pressed parties. have been omitted.
II the courts shall entertain the cause, it
will then be open TO the counsel Of the blacks
to inquire how they came into the condition Of
slavery. and to throw upon those who pretend
TO be their owners, the necessity of proving
that they are legally and rightfully such.
