MARTIN VAN buren, Us. HENRY CLAY
=" Choose We between them

Mr.. Van Buren,, long ere he dreamed of theI
Presidency and when prominent politician of
New York, possessing considerable influence,
and Of mature age, voted in the Senate of that
state, in favor OF lNsTRUCTING her Representa-
tlves in Congress, and requesting her Senators
TO vote against the admission of Missouri intoI
the Union, as Slaue-holding State. Nay, more
over, we assert, and challenge contradiction,
that, through his exertons and influence, was
the election Of Rufus King to the Senate of the
United States perfected, and with the express
understanding, that he should oppose the ad-
mission of that State into the Union, with the
privilege of holding slaves. Judge Morton Of
Massachusetts, who was in the Senate Of the
United States at that time, has in q letter, in
answer to the AbolHiOniSiS Of that State, given
ii as his opinion, that but for the exertions and
influence Of Mr.. Clay, Missouri neper acould
have been admitted into the Union, except as
free State. DR.. Duncan, of Ohio, confidential
friend Of the President, and one Of the most
prominent leaders of the "party" on the floor
oEthe House of Representatives, has openly,
and under his own signature, declared he new

Mr.. Adams, when lie declared Mr.. Van Bu-
rem "Northern man with Southern princi-
Ipes," must have lost sight of his early declar-
atoms and acts. He should have recollected
that he was a man Of calculation, and always
governed by "proft and loss" considerations
His Southern principles depended on circum-
stances. He was perfectly aware that the
South was "Unit" on the subject of abolition
he also knew that Seuen.eightS of the people
of the North were equally hostile to that fac
ton; it was safe and popular, therefore, for him
to take strong ground against them. Had it
been gice rerSa as far as the non-Slaue,holding
states ,caS concerned, it is too uncharitable to
believe his sentiments would have been in accor-
dance with theirs?-"IIe has deceived US once"
said "a distinguished Virgnian, "thpt was his
fault il he deceives US the second time, that will
be ours" Yes, he did deceive us, in 1897
while on visit to the South, he unequivocally
declared his hostility to the American system;
and in favor Of free trade. On reaching his
home at Albany, public meeting was called
at the Capitol, Of the friend of the American
system; he attended that meeting and made a

From tie Raymond Times,
JUDGE EDMUND SMITH.

By an address from this gentleman, publish
ed in the last number of the Liberty (AmIte
county, Advocate, we sec that he has hidden a
final farewell to public lie. We regret to see
this announcement. Our acquaintance with
the late House Of Representatives was very
general, but at the same time very particular
and among the entire lot (ninety in nFmber)
there was not one that stood higher in pur es,
timation than Smith of Amite. His general in
telligence-his regular attendance in the House
his experience in legisIaton--hls address in
debate--and his unbending integrity Joined
with great fund Of good-humor anecdote and
glee, made him a prominent member. Moth
ing pleased US better than to witness a coils
ion, either in or out Of the House, between him
and good old JOHN GILMER, Of Lowndes. As
TO the circumstance Of Judge Smith leaving
Jackson before the adjournment, for which 1t
seems he is prosecuted, we know that he is
wronged. Domestic Affections compelled him
to leave Jackson--and the night before he left,
we heard one of his constituents, opposed toI
him in politics, Justify his course.

A DUEL.--Our community has been in sus-
pense for more than week concerning duel
expected between Mr.. w. H. McCARDLE and
DR.. HAGAN, the former the editor Of the Vicks-
burg Wing, and the latter Of the Sentinel
They met, accordingly, on Wednesday morn
ing last, on the Louisiana shore opposite Vicks-
burg--where, after firing twice without effect,
a suspension Of the affair took place. At A
o'clock in the afternoon Of the same day they
again met, and at the first fire Mr.. McCardle
received wound in the hips, the ball Of his
antagonist passing entirely through and falling
into his boot. Whether Mr.. McCardle was
seriously injured, we have not learned
We take no pleasure in making known these
details. Both oCthe gentlemen are our person
al friends--and we deeply regret that any cir
cumstances should have occurred to interrupt
that current of good feeling, that "esmit du
corpS," which ever should reign among the ed
itorial brotherhood. Heaven and earth! Have
we not enemies enough out of the profession9
Is it not enough that the little great men of the
land are always slanderingth press and insult.

The rabid spirit Of Locolocoism is still stalk.
ing through some portions Of the East and
North; wherever it goes riot, confusion and
outrage follow in its steps. 1t is most surpri-
sing to US that party which promulgates such
corrupt and disorganising doctrines, carried
out by faction and villainy, can receive counte-
nance or support from any portion of the COM
munity. Robbing a flour store is a more frolc
to the hireling supporters ofthe present dynas-
ty-the stopping Of legislation in a sovereign
state and disturbing the peace and good order
of its citizens, is matter of small consideration
when the success of the objects Of the party is
concerned, -the prevention of an election OF
senator by a palpable violation of State Con-
stiution, is subject of boast to the agrarian
anti-repubcan supporters of Martin Van Bu-

| They have only TO account to the Pfoprletors
for the principal sum Of monies put into the con
Germ, besides all necessary and unnecessary OK
penses which may be charged. The lnstltu
/ ton, in the case we are supposng, has most ex'
Itraordinary and advantageous privileges con
ferred upon it by Jaw.
Now, we hesitate not TO say, that every man
must see at once and acknowledge, that such
q monied institution must necessarily destroy
the whole finance and commerce OF the country
Who would not wish to obtain employ in such
a concern, even without dollar OF salary
and every one, Of course, can see that 1t VIII
continually occupy an antagonistical position
to all other monied operations. For here, and
here alone, is to be found the interest OF the
concern Money, or the use of money, is worth
more when it is high and scarce than when 1t
is plenty; and exchange is more valuable when
il is high than when it is low; and when money
is in any instance TO be made by TRANSMISSION,
they make t-but when, in like operations, 1t
is TO be expended, they do not lose it.
Now, we defy loco-foco ingenuity to point
out any material difference between such dan
gerous and destructive institution as we 1--we
pictured, and the ub-Treasury as it at present
exists. There is none. And yet we find men
who give@heir support to such an engine of
destruction because, and only because, it is fos-
tered by politicians whom they have been
in the habit Of regarding as political friends.
Far, far better would it be TO have A REAL
TREASURY BANK. A bank of circulation, dis
count and deposite, with all the features and
privileges usually enjoyed by banks, -wth the
public revenues and public mint for its capital,
and controlled solely by the President and his
cabinet, as banks are usually controlled by a
Directory. Yes, we unhesitatngly believe,
that such system Of finance would be infinite
ly better for general commerce than the Sub
Treasury. For then the profit arising from
all its transactions would 90 into the Bank,
which would throw its interests into the chan
mel of the interests of the other banking insti-
tutions.
But the great disadvantages Of real Gov
eminent Bank, ina Government like ours, are
so apparent, that they lie out upon the surface,
and are plainly to be seen by the most super
fetal observer. But the Sub-Treasury has a
veil spread over it, and in order TO see all its
delormity, except those resulting from absolute
corruption, it is necessary to labor, more or
less, in insttutng comparison between 1t and
the commerce and finances Of the people,
Why does mol each State hare Sab Treasury?
They would not be liable to one-twcntieth part
of the objection that the present MURDERER OF
COMMERCE AND DESTROYER OF CURRENCY is subject
to it.
This spell of political deluson must and will
be brushed away from the minds of all candid
honest men WHO THINK. 1t will soon be seen,
and it will soon be acknowledged, too, by all
men, that there is no other remedy fol the ills
and evils we suffer, but WING PRESIDENT

TABLE BEER.--Thc Southern Cultivator
gives the following recipe for making table
beer:
"To make cheap and wholesome table beer,
take eight bottles of water, one quart of molas-
ses, one pint of yeast, one tablespoonful of gin.
ger, one and half tablespoonful of cream Of
tartar. These ingredients being we'll stirred
and mixed in an open vessel, after standing
twenty-lour hours, the beer may be bottled and
used Immediately"
