BETTING no .WIN MONEY.

A friend handed us a paper yesterday
containing notice ola bet between two
wings in Utica, N. Y, on the Presiden-
tial election. 1t is thus noticed in the
Detroit Free Press Statesman.
"a bet of 1000 dol!a.s that Martin Van
Buren, will be reelected President'ofthe
United States for the next Presidential
term, was (says the Wayne New York
Sentinel) made in Utica last week, be-
tween two prominent wings! The one
taking the affirmative Of the bet alleges
that his inotive was 10 Yia mOney-tke
other who thus 'backed up his opinion"
doing SO, doubtless, for electionecriRg et-
feet. Ofcouse, considerable excitement
and vexation among the ciderites was the
consequence Of the singular procedure

REORGANIZATION OF TIE MIL
TIA

The whig orators, in their stump speech
es, are still representing that the plan Sub
mitted 10 Congress by the Secretary Of
War, for the reorganization of the Milith,
was an attempt by the President 10 cstat.
lish standing army; although they knov
that Mr.. Poinsett was called upon by Con
gress for the plan, and that il was accord.
ingly drawn up by him, and presented to
Congress, without having been seen by Of
submitted to Mr.. Van Buren, for his con-
sideration.
Many that have heard these whig speak !
ers, have been made 10 believe that this
is an administration measure, and that
if Mr.. Van Buren, should be reelected,
the "standing army" bill; as the wings
call it, will become law, The proposi-
ton was reported against by the commit
tees TO which it was referred, and no ap-
prehension need be entertained that it
will become law.
Mr.. Van Burenh has lately writtena long
and satisfactory letter in answer to a let
ter written to him by citizens of Virginia,
asking his opinions on some of the most
important questions now before the peo-
pie. We make the following ex,lact
from what he says in relation to the plan
submitted by the Secretary Of War. Af.
ter giving his opinions at length on the
subject, and expressing doubts as to the
constitutionality Of the plan, Mr.. Van
Buren says
Mr.. Poinsett's uncontrovsrted account Of the
origin and progress ofhls plan Is befde YOU. He
shows that 1t grew out Of the request made q
him by the Committee on the Militia Of tho
House of Representatives, at the cbse Of the
session before the last, in contemplation of pos
tible collision between this country and Great
Britain, and that it was matured ind drawn
forth under a call made upon him by De House

Dear Sir:


Dear Sir:
1t has been charged by persons opposed
10 you in politics, and evidently for polit-
ical effect.
lst. That you gave countenance and
encouragement TO the circulation of Bing-
hampton post notes in this state, issued
in the name Of Bank in New York, es-
tablished under the general banking law
Of that state.
And 2nd. That you borrowed sum Of
money of G. l.. Cole, who brought these
Binghempton post notes 10 Ohio for cir
culalion; and that,a part of the money SO
borrowed Of said Cole, was in Binghamp-
ton post notes.
AS these charges have been attempted
10 be sustained by an affidavit Of S, q.
Renick, President of the fraudulent Cir
cleyille Bank, which, though it is strong
ly and glaringly marked on its face by the
deception, may deceive some who are
not acquainted with his character and re-
cent Bank transactions, | have 10 request
you TO state, il not Incompatible with your
sense Of duty, the truth or falsity Of such
charges.
would moi ask or desire you TO notice
any or every charge made in tho fedora
presses to injuro you before The people oI
this state; but satisfied that there is a con.
spracy Of swlndling Bankers to destroy
your reputation, as you stand ig the way
oftheir designs upon the currency and
credit Of the state, Therefore addres you
this note, hoping you may feel at liberty
TO reply TO il, as know you are always
ready TO meet our enemies, and able to
yanqnish them.

$2.S02 33

Dilerence, SH,oU% 80
The reason of this variance was that
the Treasurer had redeemed Governor
Vance's checks, and did not receive his
bill on the Auditor until after the close
Of the fiscal year; and the payment was
consequently thrown into the Auditors
next report. The books of this Office
have been compared with the Governors
reports, and the items found the same.
The balances disagree from the variance
of time above referred to.
While upon this subject ofc1rrections,
Iproposc passing notice upon an arti-
Gle in the Journal Of the 2lsl, as copied
from the Springfield Republic, in rela-
ton to the expenditures of this Office
The editor institutes u comparison be-
tween 1880 and 1889, to prove that the
expenses of the Office have increased
some $4,000. If he had gone back to
1920 or 1910, he would have shown a
much greater' increase with as much
proprioiy. Since 1880 the whole Canal
system has been added to this office
the section lG, the school land, and State
common school systems have grown up;
whole volumes of new records have
been ordered; and the labor Of the Office
increased from six to ten fold; and the
expenses have increased with it. If the
editor had gone back TO 1916, lie would
have found the whole Slate Government
expenses about $4,000; while under
the administration Of Gov. Vance, he
would have found them 100000. One
comparison would have been as wise as
the other. Next the following statement
Of clerk hire, (made up from the 18th of
