"FEDERAL BANK DlKEc roRs.' This is the cap
ton, soul and body of most of the articles which
appear in that organ oflhe secret political clubs in
this State--the Montpelier Patriot. The Senate
last year, quoths the Patriot "fcderal nsonop-
oly Senate composed Of federal Banh Directors. >
The Patriot may perhaps have spoken the truth
for once. The only Bank Directors in that body
were two Tan Baren men, one of whom is now
the principal manager of the Essex Bank. And by
an application of the same rule the next Senate will
be like unto the last if the PATRIOTS party succeed
in cIccting their candidates OF all the candidates
no1o in nomination for the Senate, that nndor-
stood to have any connection with Banks, there
are only two Bank Directors, and they arc both Pan
Barren men. ~Lct the people look at this system Of
humbuggery, for il is nothing less. ''Fcderal Whig
Bank party" is the cry of the Van Buren, presses
all for effect and deception.

The GLOBE uroN THE SUB TREAsuRY-In 1884
tho Globe, tho Official organ of the Adminstra.
ton, denounced the Sub Treasury Scheme as
Dsorganizng and revolutionary, subversive of
the fundamental principles Of our Government,
ana OF IFS entire practice from 1850 down TO this
day.
! Further said the Globe:
III IS as pa'pable as the sun, that the effect of
The scheme would be to bring the public treasure
| MUCH NEARER the actual 'custohy and control Of
inc RESIDENTS IMAM 1t is now, and expose it TO be
Plundercd by Il hundred hands where one cannot
now reach it,
Yet more The Globe undertook TO denouncs
the Sub Treasury in Gen Jackson's name # dc
clared:
'hr Leigh knows that the President himselfs
opposed to the project which he ascribes his sup
porlers, and that his friends in Washington, whe-
ther OF tho Cabinet or not heartily concur with
MIN IN the course oil policy it is expedient to pur-
sue
Another extract from the Globe on this subject
runs follows
"Ilad such asuggeston come from Gen. Jackson,

nation and the potest, as conclusive proof all tho
aspirations which may have been charged to the

he wishes to put the public money directly INTO the
palms of his friends and partizans, instead of keep
hight on deposite in banks, whence it cannot be
drawn for other than public purposes, without GER
tain detection. In such case we would feel that
the people had just cause for Alarm and ought to
give their most watchu attention to such an effort
to enlarge executive power, and put in its hands
the means of corruption
The scheme above described by the Globe is
the same that Van Buren, calls upon the freemen of
Vermont to vote for; that is, vote for Van Buren,
men for state officers, and Van Buren, will say the
vote is for him and his Sub Treasury scheme; and
10 1t would be. Ifit would destroy the fundament'

ESSEX BANK. According to the reports adoa,

Now, reader, "can the Ethiopian change his skin

If there is odium attached to the epithct federal,
larger share of il belongs to the Van Buren, party,
than to the Wing party. Will the people consent
to be humbuggcd by tho hue and cry which is raised
by the Vantes merely to cloak their own misdeeds?
Surely they will not.
We would not deny that there are not many mon,
honest s. good men, who were old federalists, now
belonging TO the Wing party. They are those who
were modest in their politics, and much less ardent
in their feelings than many men Of the party -
They generally approved OF the movement OF John
c. Adams when he seeded fiom and denounced
some of the high toned and extrava giant meas ures
of tho federal party, and have pretty uniformly adj
hered to him to this day. On the other hand, the
rank ultra, s'cockado" portion of the old federal
party united with Van Buien and carried their no.
tons with them into his party, where they now
shine in the ascendant. Thus il with nj ar tin
Chiuenden of this State, and Hubbard of N Hamp-
shire.
This we consider a candid, truo and rational view
of the subject We are persuaded that intelligent
men SO understand it, and condemn the by pocrlical
and groundIess claim set up by the Van Buren, par
ty of boing the genuine Democratic party.

"uARD CuRRENcY' How do the people suppose
tho Exclusively metallic currency party" propose
10 increase the quantity Of coin in the country when
they shall have annihilaed tho specie paying banks?
| 1t is well known that thoro is not one fourth tho
quantity of specie the country that is necessary
to be used in tho common business of the people;
and If all banks arc 10 be crushed by tho omnipo-
tonco of the Administration, the question comes up,
what is to be the substitute for bank paper? 1T
doubtless is the intention Of Benton and Van Blu
rem to create a Monster Sub Treasury Bank, which
will issue largo notes something like the present
Treasury Rags, unavailable TO common business
people, and to attempt TO increase the coin by
some means, TO fill the vacuum created by tho de-
siructon ofthe State bank rapor. And what, rea-
of the whole world fail TO add much 70 ,he s,ocL ri
the precious metals, and the United States cannot
possibly secure and retain only her share of them
II we import more than due proportion, it runs
out 70 naturally and irresstibly as the waors Of
our noble rivers seek the bosom of the s.doep blue
sea- The expedient has already begun The
Sold coin has becn-such as has been recast NJ tho
mihts or late, and 1t is all to undergo tho same
Pfocess-dobased by mixing with 1t other metals
and Its real value reduced. The man who NAV
chance TO have some of the new ''goden currency
mas not pure gold, but mixture fgold and baser
metal And the hard currency system is TO be
further carried out by reducing the silver coin in
the same manner The Secretary Of the Treasury
IS now dcvsing means TO debase the silver coin ne
the gold coin has been.
Here is developed the modus operandi for giving
to the people an exclusively metallic currency.
Here we have glance Of "bank reform, according
10 Nathan Smiles notions, we conclude. MS his
friends aver that he never voted for bank. LET
thIs'system 60 on, and will take view of The
results that must certainly follow As the business
and population Of tho country increase, the dc.
mnnd Tor an increased quantity of a circulating me-
dum will be proportionable IF the demand This
year requires debasement of The pure metal orl
one fourth, six years hence the demand NAV be
increased to half and SO on till il is reduced TO
A real Spartan Iron currency The Sub Treasury
shin Pasters to BIO used for tho larger transac-
ions between commercial men and the Govern
nenf. Such of the notes MS have been issued-at
east the last edition of ton mlons-are not re-
leemable with specie, but only by Indebtedness to
no Government.
Under such system OF finance if it deserves
he name-who does not the old Continental
ines revived ?-the country full of deprecated
Treasury Notes, with hard currency-half Of gold
nd silver, mingled with another half of some base
letal Who does not prefer State Bank paper to '
his sort of currency paper redeemable at all 4
mes by specie at the will OF the holder in the q,
eghborhood where it crculates. s
