Mr.. JAMES GARLAND, Of Nirgini,. has condrcen-
ded 10 reply. though the columns one IL our
contemporaries, 10 the malignant misrepre.rn,a-
tons by the Globe Of his votes. as II Member of the
House Of Representatives. upon the printing OF GER
tam public DoCumc nts. One OF the charges IS con-
veyed in The following item OF alleged expenditure,
which - stated as u sort set-olf to the profnsc eX-
pendIturcs and defdlcations of Government officers:
" For printing cancelled Treasury drafts on the
- call Gf Mr.. BoND, obsolete correspondence ON the
- caliof GARLAND, and other documents
Slll,542. sd.
The - obsolete correspondence printed ~ on tho
call of Mr.. CARLASD' was that precious document
which Mr.. WISE has lately made such use Of in his
endeavor 10 open The eyes of an abused and lrluIrd
people and its cost was less than Il hundrcdM part
OF the whole amount paid for printing for the House
of Representatives during the last political year,
which the official Editor would have it believed that
Mr.. BoSD and Mr.. GARLAND are responsible for
Upon this head Mr.. GARLAHp says
The document about which such n hue and
cry has been raised over my head, with a view OF
dlserting public attention from ITS astounding
contents, contains four hundred pages, and cost
= Sl.074 n document of much less volume, and prin-
ted atmuch less expense, Than many about which
the watchiul and vigilant ccoaomiSt OF The. Globe
says nothing, although as obsolete and '~,rortklesS,
as Til, is conceived to be by that paper, 1t is
more profitable, perhaps, to Inc Globe. in the pre-
SEM state Of things, to strike at me ih,n other
genetIcmen who are hot so obno xious TO its wrath."
And Mr.. GARLAND, adds. with a point which
must reach every mind, If this document affords
food for the OpposiIion to gnaw upon, IT IS BECAUSE
ThE FooD is THERE. II it be ~worthless' and OBJ
sofetc,' it will be destruction TO those who use il fey

COM. & RAIL ROAD BANK.

The Commercial and Rail Road Bank of this
city has again suspended specie payments, and
her notes are no longer redeemed at her coun-
ter in the precious metals.
We deemed the resumption of specie pay
ments by our Banks premature; present events
prove that our opinion was not incorrect,-the
large foreign debt due from our citizens render
cd the resumption on behalf of our Banks
hazardous in the IRENE, the demand for spe-
Gle or its representative wherewith to pay and
extinguish this debt, and by the up country
trader for the same, were immense and increa-
sing. The times are 'ssadly out of lointn No
man acquainted with the condition and resour-
ces of this Bank, doubt for a moment its
ultimate ability and her honest desire to pay
her notes according to their terms; but neces-
slty hath no law, and her commands must be
obeyed. Her paper was, before resumption,
and will again be received by our citizens ith
confidence. twas foreign holders of her paper,
as we understand, that were determined to
shave their pound of fesh'' thar suPerlnduceu
this stoppage-
The Bank, we understand, will continue to
redeem in specie her FIVE and ten dollar notes,
and we authorised to say to the holders of
her paper, that no sacrifice should be made or
permitted by them. Unless the stoppage is
general: the Bank will soon be in such condi-
ton as will enable her to resume with safety
to herself, and at the same time preclude the
from her vaults of every dollar bv
those who will have found ere long that it was
their interest 10 have sustained rather than
deprecated her paper.-TTeksJtsrg Hing
