Bank Of Kentucky assuAsd By tie Bank ofhs Uaited
Sat<s aud ptaeedto The credit Of the TREASURER ~ pe,
eial account, 100000"
Now we will show TIC cheating and decep-
lion attempted by the Secretary. At pages
80 and 81 Of the report will be found, letter
from w. ii. Pope, President of the Bank Of
Kentucky, dated the 10Th Of September, ad-
dressed to Mr.. Woodbury., which begins, 81
hand you enclosed herewith, check on the
Bank Of the United States, Philadelphia, in
your favor, for three hundred thousand dol
lars, intended as a payment on the amount
due the Treasurer OF the United States by this
bank" On the 18th September, the acting
Secretary Of the Treasury, writes to the
Cashier Of the Bank Of the United States thus:
"The enclosed check has been this day re-
ceived from the Bank Of Kentucky, and !
will thank you to place the amount 1890, o00)
to the special credit Of the Treasurer, and ac-
knowledge the receipt of the same to him."
Now where is the evidence that the Bank Of
the United States " assumed to pay this sum
for the Bank Of Kentucky?' There is none
whatever: II is all subterfuge and decep-
ton. And why was the money placed on
deposite in the Bank Of the United States
Why was it not drawn out in specie and
placed in the mintl Under the act of 18th
June, 1887, one million was appropriated
constantly for the use Of that establishment;
and Is 1t not notorious, that its operations have
been, for some time past, very much crcum-
scribed for the want Of means to keep them
goingl
And here is 100000 that has been laying
IN the Bank Of the United States idle. Why
was It not drawn out and placed in the mint,
under any circumstances whatever! The
check of the Bank of Kentucky appears to
have been unconditional and without any re-
strictions. What other motive could have
led to making the deposite in Mr.. Biddle's
Bank, which we know was cause of much
exultation at the time with those connected
with it,
We shall continue the subject in our next,
when we shall detail some of the most inte-
resting parts of the diplomacy and arrange
ments connected with this attempted alliance
between Mr.. Van Buren, through his Cabinet
ministers, and Mr.. Biddle.

TILE ArTACK UPON THE NAVY.

The Madisonian assails the Secretary OF the
Navy with much animosity, but with little effect:
Mr. Paulding stands SO high in the es'imanon OF
the nation, as aman Of honor-as an individual OF
enlarged views, and Of vigorous and richly cuti-
waited mind that the missiles of malice and envy fall
harmless at his feet."-Boston Post, (Loeo F0eo)
"The Madsonan renews the charge that Mr..
Paulding is the author of the attack in the Globe on
the Navy, upon what does not seem to US sufficient
grounds Ii Is moreover rather stale topic
FrederiskbHyg Arena, Hhig)
The Boston Post is informed that the Madisonian
has never impeached the honor of the individual
alluded to-never denied to him enlarged views"
or richly cultivated mind" We have read his
books and his pamphlets, and respect his literary Ia
tents. Wedo not cherish particle of"envy" or ina
lice" against him, or any other man. We have stated
our opinions of the infamous assault the Navy,
and a, one time the world agreed with US. Satisfied
as we are that the Secretary of The Navy wrote 1t,
we have expressed the fact; and if TO speak the
truth in relation to such transaction, merit before
the country condemnation as the missile Of ma
lice and envy" shall grieve, not for ourself but
for the degradation of the honorable sensbilies OF
the public, and for the downfall Of the power OF
truth.
But some Wing papers win have it, that 1.-THE
topic is stale" Is it any more stale than the fTem,
raev and rery e1pedint and necessary topic, which
"envy and malice" are endeavoring to revive TO the
prejudice of Mr.. Rives7 Why are the Wig papers
so much more delicate and fastdioIs towards mem
bers Of the Cabinet, than towards Conserrattres?-
Why is it that they will not permit the 1aad'son'on
to establish any charge against the party in power
bu, cooperate with the loco focos to render our ei
forts vain and nugatory2 But our "charge does
not see,un to rest on Sufficient grounds" We SAID
