by his vote and influence, to do all in his power
consistent with his duty as good citizen, to over

destruction of the credit syste m, trampled upon the
laws, and robbed the Treasury of the people, and
substitute in their places such as will respect
the rights of the ruled, and bring about the peace.

u The Investigating Committee closed their Ia

ceeded TO Washington. From the hints thrown out
by the papers, it seems that large ofthe public
money have been expended by Price and Swart-
won't in carrying on the elections in favor of Jack
son and Van Buren,. The Madisonian says:
We learn that the Investigating Committee are
making important discoveres-such as will make
the Locos feel deep remorse that they did not take
the early advice Of their quondam friends, the Con-
servatives.
We wish the committee could discover how much
of the public money, employed by Swartwout,went
into the pockets OF the editor of the Globe, in aid
of the establishment Of that paper.
We wish also they could discover how much Of
the proceeds OF this grand defalcaton, accrued 10
the benefit of Martin Van Buren,, and went to pro
mote his election
Does the Globe deny that it received portion of
this stolen money, or that the Presidents election
was promoted by it. Is not ''the partaker as bad

forth at the tremendous affair this day, although
from the notes of preparation, the Dragging and

well as the living, to appear at Middlebury in
Convention, not by dozens, nor by hundreds, but
by thousands But, says the Vermont Patriot, there
were present six hundred, perhaps eight, This
was indeed too bad. The Van Buren, papers en-
couraged the belief that many thousands would be
there. Lamoille county talked of sending her long

DOUBLE VoTING The system of double voting,
as introduced by Barton at the last N. H. election,
is becoming quite popular with his party. In the
late trial in the Middesex District in Massachu-
sets in the town Of Cambridge, man was detected
in putting into the box two ballots, and it is said
that numbers of the administration party were pro-
vided with two different ballots, for the convenience
Of double ootiag! One was square ballot of con-
siderable size; the other small slip of paper, which
being artfully folded inside the larger ballot, both
together were thrown into the ballot box. This
game soon found out, and upon examining the
box SIX double ballots found 1t is supposed
that such arrangements we're made in other towns,
and that many Van Buren, votes of this sort were
polled. This double voting system shows how
anxious the party is to secure the next Congress,
and prevent full nvesti cation Of the frauds upon
the Treasury. The main body of the Van Buren,
party are not implicated in these despcabe meas.
ures; but when they know their leaders resort TO
them, they ought TO come out from among such
men, and join the people in attempting 20 drive
out the "money changers similar characters
