MIssl>slpp1 UNION BANK.--We have just
perused an article from the Jackson MissIs-
ipplan, in relation to the actual condition and
future prospects Of this institution, which, to
use the msappied cant Of its advocates, was
"designed as a regulator II the financial op.
eIatlens Of the state, and intended to furnish
a sound and uniform currency" Yes, even
so it is, tina, sach nguage is used in praise
of said institution and its managers, who not
content with acting in direct violation Of the
express provisions Of her chatter, IN relation
to the disposal of the five millions of state
bonds. .has, in open disregard of laws, food
ed the state with post notes, to aid a few
hundred spectators, and as many advocates
of its swindiing operations. And not salts
fed with these transactions, so ruinous to the
interests of the S ate, are now, if wo arc
rightly Informed, making grand and extern
sive preparations for the purchase Of the
present crop Of cotton.
IT, DnrrnIc nre~1Iarf nc he
bank, who has been at the east for some time
eesayng to dispose Of the second edition o.
state bonds, has recently, We hear, csmmunl
Gated TO the bank his inability 10 dispose OF
hem, even for twelve month post notes Of
he Union Bank, as he had been authorized
10 do BY the board, previous to his departure
or the north. Upon this subject, DIR Hagan
to whom we wish all success in his opPosl-
ion to the "thteUtng shops" as he humours'
y terms them) wisely remarks:
GAS an evidence of the total disregard of
all law manifested by the managers of The
Union Bank, we Will mention that before Mr..
Runnels started for the MOI tn, the buald pass
ed resolution authorizing him to swap the
hoLds for Union Bank twelve month post
Doies He now finds that he cannot sell them
even for this paper, which was purchased at
% per cent. discount, and has written home
TO this effect. What is the consequt nee!
SAGE qui puet, OF devil take the hindmost,
is the achword among the manager, and
one.h half at least of ali the cotton they can
buy for post notes will be clear gain.
"The spectators and thieves, and all who
have got this money to buy cotton, will no
doubt cuIse us for this information, as they |
did last fall when we warned the planters
gaiHst selling their cotton for Mississippi |
bank paper. Bur we can easily bear their /
because we know the people |
will eulogise US next spring, when they go to
market and find their money only worth fifty
cents in the dollar. They will do as the .
holders of the Railroad and Union Bank post
notes Gld last May, and exclalm, when they I
70 to buy provisions, IF had taken Hagan.s
ldvlce last fall, | should not now have been
'ohbed of half money by the vlllany Of the
,anks.' But we have no hopes that expert /
,nce will teach all; and we have no doubt
hat several of the picayune pedlars, who
rave got a few post notes ON hand, and hope
o buy cotton with them, will be seen going
rom corner 10 corner, this very day, abusing
is for telling the honest and salutary truths
which this article contains. We despse the
malice of tho whole tribe Of such dwelling
,icayune swindlels. II amuses US to see the
;eIish workings of those wretches, who
,lace their own temporary interests above
he nnruananf intaresfS of the country. -
