sURTREAsURY ARGUMENTs.

A federal paper out somewhere in the
"Piny Woods undertakes to discourse up
on the controversy which is waging between
his party and the wings. And we notice in
his remarks, as the only instance we recol-
lect of seeing in federal paper for twelve
month, he calls upon the wings for team
dour'' and "fairness" in stating and discus
sing the subjects in controversy. This is
really degree of presumption, and an at
tack upon the current history of the times,
that is rarely to be met with. There is no
plagerism there.
He says also that nothing must be said
against men in power; for that is speaking
against the people who elevated them to
Office! He complains that the wings @'do
not take the sub Treasury bill-which- they
scotland show its evil tendencies" And
Of National Bank he says;-"Let them
prove 'tis safer and better than the Const;tu-
tional Treasury bill.'' 'tLet them take this
course and We are satisfied; for WE are
ready and willing to meet them on any or
all ofthese grounds We advise the s'Piny
Woods man to take the newspapers. Ifhe
can read, and will be industrious for short
time he will be able TO inform himself of the
political movements that are going on.
But here comes humping argument.
ssBut as regards The charge of extrava-
gance which is brought against the present
administrations it has against every De-
mocratic Administration, from the time of
Jeffeson-we ask what is the character Of
those who bring the charged Are they mo-
ted for carefnlness and economy No. We
charge directly upon the Federal party, with
favoTing as party, tse eatrdUagant erpea-
diture Of public money! And We appeal to
the journals of Congress in support Of our
charge!n
(Of course be means The anti "Federal'
OF whig party.) And he process bis sschargsn

We conclude re-quoting our quotations
from the New-0rleans paper with the fol-
lowing: She (lGississippi) longs to enjoy
the tacitaies Of trade with US again" It is
really laughable 10 see how pat they have
got that humbuged and greatly abused word

editor, in this sentence, rather undertakes
to express an opinion than to state fact;
and webeg leave to differ with him widely.
There is no such longing in our State we
believe.
We have heightened out our present re-
marks too much TO say any thing particularly
or statistically upon the subjectof the inn
mense advantage TO our State, particularly
her planting interests. by the pursuit of a
direct trade. in the expectation d our cotton
and the importation of most of tie merchan-
die which we purchase, and theconsequent
disadvantage Of travelling, in thSse matters,

suffice for the present, to say, flat no ques-
ton which was ever attempted b be debat-
ed under the sun, is more clearly suscepti-
bic of proof than the one we urge. And
few subjects ever were more mlpably de-
monstrated than this has been il the prints

lature. And the press must sill notice il

Mississippi Commerce and New"orIeans.
The Vicksburg Wing Of the 2sth 'une,
copies an article from the New Orleans True
American in relation to the trade of that city,
and also the business of Mississippi. We
are surprised that our Vicksburg friend COM
mendg the article in question to notice with
out pointing out some very Objectionable por-
tions of it.
So far as the interest, trade and business
of New-orleans is concerned, we think the
True American discourses wisely, but some
of his remarks in relation to our State are
exceedingly incorrect, and so well calculated
~ iniure it's credit and business, that they.
must not pass without being set right.
After very properly, as we conceive, con-
,4egnning the course of the ssten or fifteen
RotbchiIds of Orleans the Commits
sion Houses, who were factors of Mississippi,
and who failed in 1887; he says, that they
had s. aduaaced to our planters) millions
upon the growing crop Of 1887 and 80, 2
and that the consequence of an injudiclous
course of conduct on. the part Of the suspend
ed firms was .sthat these very houses have
not been able to collect their claims Of their
Mississippi debtors And he adds that;-.
& more than two years have elapsed since
the suspension, and it is estimated chat near
tenailliOns of dollars are due US from Mis-
sissippi alone. We quote further:
In the mean time, we have lost the trade
Of this State, and the course Of these sus-
pended firms has driven Der almost to ruin,
By her attempting to make NeW-Orleans
Of Nafchez, VicksbuTg, 6Lc.-and to engage

THE PENNsYLvANTA OUTRAGE.

THE PENNSYLVANIA OUTRAGE
The following article from the Baltimore Chroni-
Gle shows the manner in which the people of the
irsted county have treated the Great Federal out
rage of the lower branch of the Legislature of
Penn. This is the way in which The people treat
these federal usurpations whenever their action
isrequired.
We too are somewhat anxious to see how the
Iocofocos will ctupon Mr.. Stevens second APP
plication for seat. He certainly has no better
right to it now than he had before Not fine sIigh-
test suggestion against s'his right to seats was
urged before but applies with equal force now
He called the House "the ofspring Of a mob"
when, to have spoken strictly true, he should
have called it ga nsobs For this sin his seat was
declared vacant without the slightest pretence of
the shadow of legal right. What strong elaine
has he to seat now? And what better right have
his constituents to representation now than be-
fore? Not to reject him again will be as gross
inconsistency as can be conceived of. What will
the Rowing federalsts do?
ELECTION oP ADAMS COUNTY, PA.-The
election to ill the seat of MIR. Stevens, de-
clared vacantby the loco focos of the Penn
sylvania House of Delegates, has resulted
in the return Of the gentleman by majority
of not less than four huRdred and fifty votes.
All the returns from the county had been
received but from three townships, and his
majority thus far was four hundred and two.
The remaining townships would increase it
not less than fifty. 1t rained during great
pyrtion of the day, and the turn out was in
consequence a thin one, else we presume
his majority would have been doubled or
trebled. We rejoice in his success, not be-
cause Mr.. Stevens is elected, but because a
rebuke has been administered by the people
for one of the most highhanded, arbitrary
and outrageous exercises of power, with
which it has been the misfortune of the
COUNTRY TO be visited The constitution of
PENNSYLVANIA was violated and the people Of
Adams county insulted in the person of Mr..
Stevens, and we heartily rejoice that his
success has shown their adherence of the
act.
We are anxious to see with what face the
loco Foco house will receive his return, and
in what way they viii act"

ter, in which he set up the most extrava-
giant claims. You would believe, in lis
tenlng to some passages OF this document,
that you heard the voice of Pope Gregory
VII, who ordered an emperor to remain
three days bare headed and bare footed,
under the windows of his castle. The
pope of Rome pretends that TO obey the
church is to obey God, and that he, the
pope, is the organ of the will of God upon
earth. Iothis letter the King of Prussia
has replied by letter in which he de-
tends with energy the rights of the crown.
What will be the issue of this serious dis.
pute. On the one side are the archbish-
ops. bishops, priests, jesuts, and some
millions of catholics. who in the main,
espouse the cause of the pope, because
political considerations mingle in the af-

his people and his army. What "a strange
spectacle for the nineteenth Century.

church and the world will not be afflict-
ed with such scourge. The king of
Prussia uses all mild measures possible;
ne has RENTED great part of the fine

his conspiracies against the government;
but has the leniency of princes ever soo.h-

l.. REED, pastor of the Congregation

gives an account, in the N. Y Evangel-
ist, ofan interesting work of grace in that
place. 1t commenced in protracted
meeting held in January last, in which
Christians, without distinction of name or
sect, united. "As the result of this work
of grace" says Mr.. Reed. 1.-THE moral as
peet of this community is greatly changed.
The voice of the blasphemer is now heard
in prayer. The delirium of the drunk

SITS a. the feet of Christ, "clothed In his
right mind" Many who were aceustom-
ed TO wander from the sanctuary of God,
are now its constant attendants; and ma
ny who were without God in the world -
are now rejoicing in the hope of saliva
ton. About 80 have united with each OF
the three churches in this place, and a
number more will probably do so. About
20 family affairs have been erected where
no voice of prayer was ever heard before.

and give evidence of a change of heart

wrought this wonderful change. and with
