Judging from the frequency of quota

this tedious, ill-arrauged, badly written,

The message occupies just twelve of
the pamphlet pages, and of these. seven
and a half are devoted 10 the currency and
sub.lreasury system. This is the Alpha
and Omega, the beginning and the end
of the message. He says that public of
ficers have only stolen 100000 out Of
100000, 900, besides what Swartwout

won't was no criterion for any person or
any system. He deno0nces the late sus.
pension and the post note system, and
tckles he Nep York bafksfOr her Course,
Hetsays that he is more than ever convin-
ced of the value Of the sub-treasury syss

Mr. Van Buren, if swelled and madened
the tides of the banking system, but never
Gained Or properly directed them. He
looks to the several sta:e legislatures for
the correction Of The evil Of state banks ID

INFLUENCE OF THE PREss.-It is a fact,
R'ncontroyertibic, as any truth, that what
ever the character of the press is, such will
b hecharactcr Of public opinion. A base
unprrcipIed press is productive Of ten
thousand times more mischief, shan any
Unworthy occt pant ola pulpitund its lnnu-
Pnce to restrain and subdue the llcentious-
rss ofthe times, is in our mind overwhe.-
ming. Place good men at their head,
support and sustain them, not grudgeingly
bot hberally-place lhemin an independent
position, aud il will produce a moral rev.
Outon in the world, unparalleled in its
history. On this subject, we place before
ourrcuders the scenarios of our cotempora-
ny otthe Philadelphia Herald;
It's a weakness Of our nature 10 SYM
palhise with crime under the name Of mis-
fortune, and to feel some timidity to array
ms ourselves against its enormrty lest we
should excite the ride ale of the frivolous
orprovoke the wrath of the wicked. But
The weakness ofour nature is not its VIZ
TUE and 10 the discharge Of DUTY, we
must summon resolution to cast off the
Iangour of one, in order to assume the
energy fthe other.
The influence oftbe press is all wonder
iu' bot It is too apt to share the complex
ION OF the society in which il is seen to
flourish, and to lend its influence to the
prevailing manners of the age. A stern
INDEPENDENT aud virtuous press is rare
'lectacle. Wehave seen none--we know
o. none. The sickly delIcacy Of morbid
%almeut which now prevails, would be
afown into an ecstacy Of horror by the
rough tones ola rigid mora list in the col
onns of public journal. The power o
9ePress, when exerted, is beyond Aide
DaI' But this power is generally laten
80 sad--so dull--so sleepy, that it comes
Unothlng. At this moment, the pres.
Seems itself guiAless ofthe rices Of tk
Ss and yet we hold tito be measurably
guilty, In common with the age itself ;an'
ue proof we adduce ofthe fact, is that tn
0ge IS prohigate. IF the press had erer
e cS its pO0er, the age would never hav
idIen into such liceniiousness. But ID
aSPnvation Of manners is too contqgIou
y permit a white spot on any partlcula
pa't Of the social body. In evil times
S Se fascination spreads over all The sPe
Unds all society. We cannot see our Dc
