ty require for the dniiy wants Of family,
is increasing in price daily, beef is high,
butter is high, steamboat fares are high,
and every necessary article Of eonslmp-
ton is high in proportion. On examining
into This fact, we End il TO be mainly at
tributable TO the action Of the banks IN
various parts Of the couatry. 1t is an MS
tonishing fact that, that in every state,
-cosnty and town, where there was an OPP
portunity for bank To engage in mono
poly of provisions, one or mora banks have
done so. In beef, in butter, in pork, in
-four, in cotton, in almost every conceiya-
Bile article Of merchandise, the banks have
carried on this monopoly.
Instead Of adhering 10 the Legitimate
business Of banking, and to the spirit Of
their respective charters. they have en-
gagged in the unhol operation Of specula-
ting in the daily food of their fellow crea-
lures. In Orange county, in this state,
the banks have gone into the market, (af-
ter refusing to discount the notes Of the
farmers,) and bought up all the butter
they could procure, and sold it elsewhere
at enormous profits In Duchess county
they haye@carried on the same game with
respect to beef. In the west, the Chica-
90 branch of the Illinois State Bank has
entered the pork market, and in one spe-
culation realized $4,000 by buying and
selling large quantity. These opera
tons are precisely the same in effect as
the purchase Of lead by the Wisconsin
hanks, and cotton BY the southern banks.
They are all branches Of the same unhal-
lowed operation, BY which money is taken
out OF the pockets of the farmers, the ne
chanics, and the merchants; and the in
dustrious portion Of the community have to
pay extortonate sums for every neccssa-
ry article Of consumption they require to
supply the daily wants Of life And on
looking further into his matter, we fad
many of the same individuals that are en-
gagged in these speculations are also en-
gagged in the management of the Hudson
river steamboats,. These steamboats,,
however, DO not pay such high prices for
their provisions as the public generally,
because they are supplied by contracts
made ycarlyyor renewed every 8 years.
They manage to assist each other in the
odious mmapoly; and the money is taken
out Of the pockets of those who buy in
small quantities. Ard thus the whole
country is getting as it were into ne, Of
thick meshes; the bank bills are the seine.
the iohhGys are the floats, tho bank diroc.
tors pail tie lau1yards, and the whole con-
tents Of the net arc disgorred into the
Golfers of the bank. The people have the
remedy in their own hanlS--lct them ap-
ply it. We show them where the evil
exists be it their task to correct it,"

The srribbler Of the Advocate stated
that the Treasurer Of the Franklin Insti-

funds, and suggests the Propriety of Sc

sury game. Now, the truth is, that there
never was 500 dollars in the Treasury

be who stated that the Treasurer had 100
dollars in his possession!

Mr.. John Van Burcn, after having act
ed tuad-eated and sycophant to the nobil-
ity Of England, for more than year, and
having danced with Queen Victoria, Cd
has returned home to repose upon bis Ian
rels. This silly fop remained, il is mot,
as long as no did in England, with the ri
diculous expectation that he might marry
the Queen, or some Of the Royal family.
The prehxed notice Of John Van Buren,
is taken from a modern Wing hocoPoco pa
per, published in an adjoining county, and
IS fair specimen Of the mention made OF
the return Of this gentleman to the land
of his nativity. And what has he done
during bis stay in England to warrant the
Wings in their abuse Of him? Has be done
anything that is Inconsistent with the

Libcralay nth vengeance. We find
the following in the "Feliciana Wings" il
comes TO the public as communication,
and perhaps is; but what the editor can
offer as an apology for admitting such fifth
into his columns, we are at loss to con-
lecture. We had higher notion Of his
discrimination, for he cannot but see that
such illiberality will sink his paper in the
estimation of every rejecting men Of feel
ing or liberal sentiments. As for Robbins
his tongue has long since ceased to be a
scandal. We believe what he says if we
know it to be true Those who had the
bad luck to be born (puked) in Europe must
not forget him-but here is the gem:
"a GOOD IDEA PLAINLY EXPRESSED
Judge Robbins, in late Temperance Ad-
dress, observed, while speaking Of the TO-
reign paupers loekibg into this country,
That if Europe wanted to rUKE he wish
cd she would turn her head away from the
United States The Judge has ray of
saying fine things"

"0f all the Giants Of this canting age,

has shed an undying iustrc upon the
country that gave birth 10 their illustri-
Gus author. The wreath which cncir-
Giles his brow, will retain its verdure,
whilst music and poetry continue TO
sway tho mind OF man. Nor can a
single leaf Of it be withered by the
blighting influence of the hypercriti-
cism ofthose whose heads and hearts
may be SO deficient in clearness or SEN
sibility as to be incapable OF apprecia-
ling him. We would ask the "Fadla-
deem" of the "Bce," who perhaps INN
gines, that he has himself drank from
the ''fount Of Castaly, whether he can
produce in any modern song verse

Real causes Of The present high prices

the place Of the merchant the consequence
is always injurious to the community al

THE last number Of the ''Democrat"
quotes from the Cincinnati Gazette to
prove the Wings Of Ohio arc abolltimists.
The truth happens to be the other way
Feliciaaa Wing.
1t is fact that the editor Of the Cincin-
cincinnati Gazette, Chas. Hammond, Esq,
a Wing editor OF much ability, saws that
"the Wings here, Tin Cincinnati,) and
elsewhere are generally abolitionists,' =
and adds, "that it is folly in the opposition
to denounce The aholitionists, for by doing
so they denounce their own party;" yet
Notwithstanding this admitted fact; ad.
mitted By their own press and denied but
by few amongst them, still this Wing pa.
per has the holiness to contradict the
Wing and Democratic editors, and SAYS
''the truth happens 10 be the other way"l
When we add TO this the fact that MORN:

U. S. hy a Democratic legislature, be.

else, and Tappan elected who always op.
