New Book BRIBERY. -.Hr Flemming
lately burned out in Commerce Street,
has succeeded in purchasing new ma
terials and stock, and has opened 2
new and complete bindry on Main
street, nearly opposite the Planter
Bank.
A generous public have now an oP-
portuni.y to enable Mr. Flemming 10
make up the losses he sustained by the
fire. By sending him their jobs in bin
ding. Every one knows the neatness
and .faithiulness ofhis work.
We particularly urge upon our Cit
zens the propricty of extending to hin
helping hand, and we sincerely trust
that instead Of visiting neighbouring
cities for the purpose, they will hcreaf-
ter have all their binuing land bla7sk
7oort especially done BY him, as it can
be done equally as well and upon terms
as reasonable here as elsewhere. To

Hear what a wing has to say Z:


Public Land Q,testion--Foly and Oh
stinqcy ofthe Whigs.-The Courier and
Enquirer, as the leading whig organ,
is daily preaching up crusade in la
voI ofMr. Ciay's indiscretc and impo-
lite measures on the public lands. with
the fact staring them in the face that
to those very measures arc the wings
indebted for their recent western de-
feits.
The wings, like the Bourbons, for
get nothing and learn nothing; these
being mere sectionai topics, rob-
bling Peter to pay Paul, never succeed.
General impulses and generous senti,
ments alone carry the masses. The
people of New York would sooner, on
agenerous impulse,giye up the whole OF
the public lands than permit dirty pol
/ iticians to belttle their nature BY sell
| fish scramblcs. Agrarian doctrines.
/ from the very generosity and disinter
cstcdncss involved in them, are natu-
rally more popular as sentiment n.
mong the masses than avarcious sel-
fish or monopolizing principles.
The public land questonisnot ytt full
ly understood. TO give away the whole
of the public lands as gratuity, would,
in the long run, be better for the At.
lantic Stetes than to hold on upon them
like a miser or monopolist to the day
of judgement. The faster the west IS
settled, the greater New York will be
come. The miserable pittancc Of a
few millions that the share Of New
York in the public lands may now be
estimated, would be surpassed by SIN
Gle years commercial intercourse at
ter they shall have been sold even al
n cent per acre.
/ Mr.. Clay'S notions on the public
lands have destroyed the wing party
in the west, and will soon produce the
same result in the cast. The only
mode of settlement in this--lct the
general government assume all the
public debts of the Atlantic States, as
it did the old revolutionary debts, and
then there can be no objection TO the
plan of distributing the public lands to
all those western Statesin which such
lands are situated. This is the only
mode orsettleing the public land ques
ton. II involves principles Of genev
osity on both sidcs,--.E 7, Herald,

CAUSE AND EFFECT.

Cause. Six or seven years ago the
United StatesBank was vetoed by Pres
ideat Jackson on account of its cor
rupt practices and blighting inHuen-
ces. and It's attempts to subvert the
government to its un5a!lowed purpose.
Efect.-Thc country Immediately
began TO enjoy great prosPerlty-:He
financial concerns were managed with
ease and facility at much less expense.
Cause.-Martin Van Buren, in con-
sideration Of his great merits, was ap-
pointed Minister to the Court Of st.
James but desperate federal faction
refused to ratify his appointment, and
he was recalled.
Efict.-The people. being highly
incenscd at this outrage upon their
rights resolved to honor him with the
highest office in their gift, and was e.
lected by an overwhelming majority
Cause.-The State Bank succeeded
in obtaining possession OF the govern
ment funds, by giving their solemn

Extract from letter to the Editor, dated

PoNTOToC, %ou sept 1862
Gen. BRowN was with us on the 2lst
inst, he addressed about 200 persons in
speech of about 2 hours he dwelt on all
tho great dividing questions Of the day
he proved that a U. S. Bank was uncon-
sltutional and opposed to the interest OF
the great body of the people, ne adduced
the most powerful reasolings in favor OF
the b-Treasury, and against the depo-
site of the public monies in the hands OF
lawless Bank Directory, to loan out to-,
and shave the people with their own mo-
new. he then adyerted to the next Prcsl.
dency-he narrowed downt the contest be-
tween Van Buren, and Clay, and called on
the people to know whether they could
support MIR. Clay, who was in favor OF In
ternal Improvements by. the general gov
ernment, the Tariff, and United States
Bank, and who has been, to say the least
of it, very backward in his disavowal o.
abolition-in preference to Mr.. Van Burer
who is incorporating in his hostility t'
all those measures, and in favor Oft Sub
! Treasury. The Gen. was peculiarly hap
py in his remarks, and both Wing and DE
mocrat agreed that his talents were OF
superior cast-he has evidently. made
great impression in Pontotoc, and will ge
an overwhelming majority in the North.

The Cotton Speculahons-.fad the
Ba,tks.-The Banks in the North and
South West have stepped out Of their
legitimate vocation, by dealing in pro
duce themselves, or by enabling the
Spectator to hold on to various artl-
clcs which should Of themselves have
gone to market, and brought in funds
to relieve themselves, the Banks, and
the country.
Banks were. never intended to dab
bic in commerce, and TO deal in pro-
duce. Indeed, most of them are cx'
,pressly. forbidden by their charters
from engaging. in such. transactions
Their true function is, so far as com
mcrce is concerned, to lend to those,
who purchase and sell upon their own
account--to lend only for limited pc
riods-and not in such a.manner as to
encourage. the Spectators TO carry out
what is called the hold on system. Such
as has been lately the case with those
monopolsts, who have purchased and
kept back large quantities of wheat
flour, cotton, bacon, sc. &c.
Many OF the Western Banks have en-
gagged in cotton and it is believed, that
the u. s. Bank itself, has been dab

pledges to refund it at any moment
called uPon--but no sooner had they
got possession of than they commenced
shaving stock jobbing and Specializing
in western city lots; and finally suspen-
ded specie payment.
Effect The whole country was
thrown into great distress and embar-
rassment--the wheels of Government
were nearly stopped and the lederalisls
openly supported the bank swindlers in
their course while they were gluting
themselves with plumber by. shaving
their own paper and filching from the
honest portion OF the community the
fruits Of their industry.
Cause. Such an outrage upon rca-
son and Justice on the part ofthe banks
reused the people to seek redress from
their enormities.
E6ect.-The federal bank legislators
were routed from the stations which
they dcsecrated, and honest men cleo
ted 10 fill their places by whose means
prosperity again smiles upon the coun'
try.
/ Cause.-The Democracy ofthe coun-

dicious measures of Martin Van Buren,

In consequence Of the extraordinary increase .
the advertising circulation, and general business
this establishment, we have determined to publish
once or twice per week double sheeted HERALD, OF
the plan Of the London and Paris journals without in
creasing price, beyond the present rate Of two
cents per copy by the single number, and one and
! half cents to the .newsmen who supply our city
subscribers. s..g
We have been induced to take this step, in order
to accommodate vast quantity Of advertisers, and
to give all the domestic and foreign news which is re-
ouired in the Leading Journal Of America, as the
HERALD now is. Our first morning doable sheet
will be issued on Wednesday morning next
of tho Great Western steamer, now expected every
hour, and it will contain fuller account of the
exciting news from Europe than any paper in New
York. a
As an nducement we shall for the double sheet only,
reduce the expense Of advertisements to Twenty-Five
cents per square of ten lines each, ,cich is less than
half the exorbitant rates of advertising charged by
single Wall street paper. BY this means, persons
who do cash business, will receive for their ready
money greater equivalent, Dy advertising oniy one
insertion in the double-sheeted Herald at % cents
per square, than they weuld BY advertising in the
whole ten morning and evening Wall street papers at
so cents per square, which is equal to So for what
we offer at 25 cents. ef'h
AS we mean to circulate from twenty to twenty
FIVE thousand copies Of the Herald on that day,
people of business will find it an advantage to
avail themselves Of such opportunity of putting
their advertisements before the world The earlier,
therefore men Of business bring in, today, their
advertisements, 10Th the cash, to this Office, Il Ann
street, the better place they will receive in our
columns. NNh
By this plan we shall be able to discharge our
duty to the public and to comply with contracts
TO all our old customers, and at the same time,
furnish a good chance for our new friends And
as business israpidly improving in New York, we
look to the time when we shall BIO able 70 issae
