SADDLE ON THE RIGHT HORSE.

For few days past certain gentleman intrencbed
behind large granite columns Cor cotton bales) IN Wall
street. sometimes denomlnated the Second Consul, has
been great rage against some OF our merchants and
other individuals who have been under the necessity Of
procuring and selling Bank Of the United States post
notes. TO enable them to meet their engagements dur
ing the severcs Of the money market th:t has
been experienced for many years, mainly produced by the
i'll advised injudicous measures OF the gentleman and
his friend the Marquis who have introduced into 'his
city within the last year, TO millions Of Treasury
notes absorbing most Of the deposited and floating
capital Of the community The increased pressure on
the mercantile community, (caused by the Treasury
notes) compelled sufferers to resort to Bank OF United
States Post Notes TO raise money. As the pressure
increased, depostors found use for their money and
drew it out Of the banks this pressed on dealers
interest on post increased and they were sold al
greater discount than the gentlemen were authorized
to make on Treasury Notes. Disappointed IN no
longer absorbing all the money, the power and pro-
fis* Of these gentlemen matters ~ greH WeiSH p'"
them were naturally essened.
To arrest the public dspleasuIe, to which they were
so richly entitled they have used their utmost endea-
yors by great zeal and gross misrepresentation to turn
the United States.
Mr. Editor think the position Of these gentlemen
is quite peculiar and painful Under existing circum-
stances the community ought TO indulge them IN tins
arduous effort to maintain their standing lheir SUI
,ferngs will teach them wisdom. They will hereafter
be careful pursue the legitimate business OF banking
facilitate the trade and commerce Of this metropolis
and not again direct their capital and all they can
procure from the Savings Bank and other institutions
Tor the use Of Government thereby distressing those they
are in duty bound to assist Should they abuse the
Bank Of the United States, il will do no harm II
would not DO the first time that institution has been the
burden of others sins.
A Locker On, ,cho sees, hears and thinks.
a small commission for selling and paying 10 mil
lions Of Treasury Notes is good thing when added to
salary Of 10 $4,000 Stockholders should look to
this.
