no LEGAL provisions against him, it would
be bad policy to elect debtor TO gov,

the sub-treasury bill sends detaulters TO

THE TIMES.

Some of the whig editors seem deter
mined that the times shall continue 'hard,'
until after the elections, if their unrea-
sonable complaints can make them So
If less were said about hard times, mo-

cheering aspect The same selnsn mo
tives that now induce the BANKS to con-
tract, will induce them to be more accom-
modating after the elections, whatever

dent shall hoard the one or live like a re-
cluse and niggard in the other.
But one word more, Mr.. Chairman,
and I have done. If, in sustaining the
appropriations to which exceptions have
been taken, | differ in judgement from
others, is because Iregard the original
design of the Government in The arrage-
ment which requires them, and not that
advocate extravagant grants, or have the
slightest reference 10 the benefit Of their
recipient. OF the particular manner in
which the money has been expended l
pretend to know nothing, and l have
said nothing. With Mr. Van Buren per
sonalIy have naught to do. Upon his
temper and bearing, his habits and man
ner of living, in private, and with those
of his family, whether at home or at the
Court of Queen Victoria, the member
may as freely descant as his taste shal
prompt or the patience of many
Others bear, without reply or heed from
me. To Mr.. Van Buren, politically, anC
10 his Administration, am opposed up
on other, and, trust, higher ground
than those which are taken in the speecI
Of the member-upon the broad ground
of constitutional principles, national in
terests and the peoples rights; and sha
continue that opposition until it shall en-
in the restoration of the suPremac
of law and representative goVernmen
, over Executive usurpation and power.
, Mr.. Chairman, for the indulgence
: the committee in their kind attention
what have had to say, pray leave
1 return my sincere thanks For detalI
Q ing them, after the fatigues of long 81
' ting, to so late an hour in the evening,

CYPHERING.

Some wings have been cyphering TO find
out the amount that Mr.. Van Buren, has
received for public services. They might
give additional interest to their Calcula-
tons by also stating how much money
Harrison has received from the public
treasury, as he has been in Office, with
the exception of short intervals, ever
since he was old enough. They might
also state that Mr. Van Buren has receiv-
ed most of bis Offices directly from the
people; and that Gen Harrison has re-
ceived but few Offices in that manner.

ANOTHER FAILURE.

The wings held county meeting in
this place on Monday last. After giving
two or three weeks notice through their
paper, and issuing large and attractive
(if denuncations of the Administration
put forth inslarge letters may be called
attractive,) handbills, they mustered
about forty Or fifty voters, from town
and country.
Admitting the statement of the Exam
iner to be true, that there were but three
hundred voters and five women at the
Democratic county meeting on the 9th,
il was six times as large as this whig
meeting, and twice as large as the meet
ing of the wings of this Congressional
district of three counties, held here three
or four weeks since. If the democratic
meeting was "failure," what were these
whig meetingsS
Gentlemen wings, your abuse and slan'
ders Of the Administration are becoming
very stale and unpopular. Stick to you
coon skins, corn dodgers, hard cider ant
canoes, and you may yet keep up a shOr
Of opposition until the election.

WHIG ARGUMENT.

The whig orators have adopted short
mode OF meeting the array of truths
brought to bear against their cause. 1t
is to denounce the democratic papers in
a mass as containing nothing but false
hoods, and the democratic editors, writer's
and speakers as being trained band Of
"lars," with President Van Buren al
their head as the greatest one among them

THE LATE ELECTIoNs.-By reference
to the returns of the elections lately held,
we perceive that there has been great
democratic gain of the popular vote since
1886, in Alabama, Indiana, Illinois Ond
Missouri. In Louisiana, where the wings
have usually carried the State elections,
they have lost their majority in Congress
and have barely secured majority IN the
Legislature. We have no doubt that the
State will choose Van Buren electors, as
in 1886. The wings have carried the
State of North Carolina. They did the
same in August, 1886, and few weeks
afterwards the State gave a majority of
1884 for Mr.. Van Buren,. There has been
whig gain in Kentucky and Vermont
States that went for the wings in 1886.
The wings profess to be unable to ac'
count for the increased confidence ex'
pressed by the democrats oftheir success
this fall. What more do we want thar
the above facts to cheer US on and inspire
us with renewed confidence Of the sue
cess of great and good cause? The!
may measure by acres; we will be con
tent to count at the ballot box.

New YoRK.-Our friends in New York
talk confidently of the success of Mr.. Van
Buren, in that State, and of its entire re-
demption from federal misrule. The fed
eral wings there, as elsewhere, talk loudly
Of"reform" while out of Office, but so soon
as they get into Office their hypocrisy is
displayed by their ruinous and unpopular
acts. During the short time that they
have controlled public affairs in New York
they have increased the State debt to an
unprecedented and alarming extent; and
the people now look for relief from their
devastating policy to those who promise
less but do more for the public good than
the federallsts were evOr found willing to
do,when different course promised them
selEaggrandizement.

ANERlcAN BANKERs.--The Emperor of
Russia, who controls the currency of that
country, after he has caused to be put in
circulation a vast amount Of paper money,
has but to issue his edict to reduce its va
lue to suit his interest. The American
banker, for like purposes, susPends specie
payments and employs his broker to buy
his notes at discount varying from six to
twenty cents on the dollar. Is there an
American with a drop of the blood OF
the revolution in his veins who will SUBJ

WHERE THE MONEY IS.

BY the following il will be PercelVeG
that the Chillicoihe Bank has nearly
twice as much specie in its vaults as 1t
has notes in circulation. The bankers,
who are continually crying "hard times"
have the money locked up in their
vaults, while we have in circulation
their rag promises to pay, which they
refuse to redeem. Yet Mr.. CorwiR
saws, theil charters are sacred, and We
have no right to alter thsm or take
them away. "Let the banks alone,
says another whg, and they will give
US a sound currency.
