In The days of the "Bad Currency a man with
notes Of the United States Bank in his pocket,
could travel from Maine to Georgia. and thence to
China, if he had MUD and obtain the full value
for them any and every where.
In these times of the ''Better Currency, ifa man

cent for funds that will he cur,ent there; and if he
is Obliged 10 send money to Europe, or wants to-
go there himself, he must even pay so much for
specie-becanse public credit is destroyed and no
other remittance is merchantable.
In the days Of the ''Bad Currency" specie was
plenty, and all the great interests OF the country in
a most prosperous condition.
In these times of the "Belter Currency" ifa
man had occasion for hundred dollars in specie
he must pay 10 dollars for it, and all the great in

and mechanical, are absolutely Frustrated.

The Globe of wednesday, contained two letters

ISOLATION at Oswego, N. Y, and a committee al
Cincinnati whom Gen Harrison had authorized to
dispose of some Of the numerous letters addressed
to him, out of all which the loco focos endeavor to
create political capital. The Globe calls it can ex-
ample of Wing management unparalleled in our
political annals" Has the Globe so forgotten
the "exampe" set by Gen. Jackson?-Has its ed t.
or forgotten that Gen. Jackson bad a confidential
committee TO relieve him of the burden of his cor
respondence' Has he forgotten that the late Har
ny Lee, one Of the most powerful of our political
writers, was ofthe committee, and that DuDid
Gy,cinne, who is how reported member of Gen.
llarrson's committee, was another? If so, it is a
great convenience for certain purposes 20 possess
short memory We were Jackson man, and we
knew something of the doings Of our purty and we
therefore consider the attack upon this "exampIe"
as amounting TO mn assault upon Gen. Jackson.
For our part. think there is and ample
justification tor the example sci by General Jack

son Both are the heroes fwar, and both are con.

fellow countrymen who served with them, who

Gen Harrison has been overwhelmed with cor

it may easily be imagined, has been only bur-
densomo in pecnniary point Of view, but gratuit.

Insulting. To such extent have letters been
senl him, couched in every form of language, that
ii would be an impossibility TO discriminate fio-
quently between friends and (oes-bono fde letters,
and impositions. We may also add, that, General
HARRISON has thus far given his attention

pundeuts, that his health has been little i'm.
paired by il already. Hence it is not surprising in

SWEEP CLEAN.

lfwar must como between the United States and
Great Britain, we hope the latter power may be
driven from every inch Of territory now in It's pos
session on this continent. Sweep clean. 1t costs
too mnch treasure and blood to keep such trouble
some fellows British neighbours within
their Just limits, to be forever endured. They have
had for about year an actual armed possession of
portion of The Oregon Territory, to which they
lay claim, and no measures have been taken,
that we can learn, to eject them therefrom. AL
though there does not appear to be any reasonable
prospects of war at present, it will not be bad
idea for the people to make ''Old Tip" Commander
in Chief, and let HIM treat the unruly subjects of
Mrs Victoria, as he promised to serve the blood
thirsty Proctor-petticoat them and send them
home across the salt water-those of them that will
not live peaceably this side.
The war fever has entirely abated at Washin ston
since the Treasury Note Bill was passed. The
:'country is no longer the ewes Of a war;
Calhoun, though he has said nothing publicly, takes
strong ground against hostile movements, and in
this case, as he did on the Sub Treasury, he will
control matters. Trouble with England would
carry trouble to his and the plantations of the
South.
