TuSes GETTING RIeHr-We congratulate our fell
low citizens on the prospect before us. Political
deusion and agraranisn is found TO be rapidly
passing away, and good old fashioned Wing princi-
pies likely to prevail again throughout the land.
Hence, must afford readers great pleasure TO
hope and believe that every thing that has been
going on wrong is getting RICH, again
The currency is making progress towards stabili-
w. at least in the Wing States. The excessive high
prices of every thing are coming down, and where
before too low and depressed, are coming up
Bread Stuis, flour, in particular has fallen from
or twelve dollars barrel 10 six or seven. Wool
also, which has been fuciuating from very low to
very high prices is getting about right and
ting down upon average Of about fifty cents, az
forming profit 10y which the grower and manufac-
turer can both live and thrive. And the industrious
household manufacturer now afford go to
work and make their every day rocks and trousers,
and aprons, and other home spuns, and knit their
own stockings and mittens, if they choose, and no
causes of complain, about the high prices of the raw
material. Meats too, we think must come down
soon, that we can afford to buy shoulder of
mutton, hnc of veal, and slice of beef steak
without having to pay its weight in silver COIN
The day laborer, too is getting well paid for hshire,
and business begins to ego ahead in the good old
way as in times before the speculation commenced
upon the currency; or rather to speak more frankly,
before the President of the party which governs
the country robbed the national treasury. And
should the revolution in political matters be COM
/ pletc, as we now believe II WILL we hail the no dis
tant day when our highly favored nation will have
cause for general jubilee throughout the land in
comnemoraiion of the restoration of the most pros
porous and happy times with which she has been
been favored since her organization; and 'songs of
! Joy" will be in every ones mouth, that we have
again escaped the chains which have been prepar-
! ing for us by the tyrants who yet rule the country
Loco FocoIsM DEVELOPING rTsELF.-The Legsla-
ture of New Hampshire, its recent session passed
a law DISTINGUISHING all members of Literary Insti-

to disranchise all professional men and merchants,
and manufacturers, aso and, to cap the climax of

man who should dare 10 vote against the Van Buren,

done in some of the States at the polls.
Now, it mly be said by some that this is presum-

attempted TO he forced upon the people which then
would have staggered creduty itself, had they been
