PROFESSION Us. PRACTICE.

lIow wonderfully the locos carry out their pro-
LESSONS and promises of "beter currency"
"retrenchment" economy and all that sort Of
stuff. Let us look at two or three states, where
they have had all the po,cer to carry out their
promises, to the utmost extent. And first
alabama. The late report of the state treasurer
makes the state debt to he SIS, 400,oO0 about five
millions of which become due in two. four and
six years, the remainder somewhere between 1850
and 1856. The semi annual interest amounts to
$206,50o!! The currency of this state is paper
of the worst sort.
But let us go to a different sccon:--
Maine. The treasury is out Of funds, and is
obliged to resort TO treasury notes, which read rs
follows
"The State of Maine promises to pay, at the
Treasury Office in Augusta, in year after date,
or sooner, if notice be given to the holder OF this
nole five dollars IN current bank bills of said state
with interest ut the rate of six per cent. per anuum.
-, Treasurer of the State Of Maine"
Alas for the farmers of Maine the gold can't
" shine through the interstices OF their long silken
purses j and treasury notes only can font up the
Kenncbec. One more example only, for this Time
1t is Georgia:
Georgia Legislature. This body has nd iourned
We learn that The Senate rejected the Quarantine
bin passed by the House, against the citizens Of
Maine
No provision has been made for the payment of
the 100000 for which the state is now under pro-
test in New York ; was any made for The pay
ment Of the states bonds in Europe "What now
will become of the credit of the state?' asks the
Augusta Chronicle " But what do the democratic
(snvc the mark y jnckannpes of our Legislature
care for state honor state credit? They voted
themselves fire dollars day, for their glorious do
ings, and then created bank to issue the bills to
pay them and that is about the issue Of their two
months session, Such are the fruits of The reign
of locofocosm in Georgia. God save the state
from any more such legislatures, or the further
reign of such party

Tricks in high pla:es--Amos Kendall, like all
the rest OF heads OF the departments wants money
from Congress, and here is one way in which he
means TO get it. A large quantity of blanks for
taking the census are printed at Washington, and
be transported to different parts of the coun-
try. OF course the cheapest way would be for
Congress to authorize the department to frank
them. But this won't answer Amos Kcndalrs
views. He purposes to charge letter postage on
all the blanks, and in payment of this postage asks
Congress 10 appropriate three hundred aud seven
iy thousand dollars. Secretary Woodbury. sends
this in as an item for an appropriation Here is
economy-Van Buren, economy, of the s,riclest
sort is there not? Congress must pay nearly
four hundred thousand dollars for postage, when
it might as easily send The blanks, like public doe

U. S. .Senator.-A0er n delay of two weeks, we
have the unfeigned pleasure of announcing to our
readers, that AUGUSTUS S. PORTER, Esq was
yesterday elected, by the two Houses, in Joint Con-
venlion, Senator to the U. :. Senate from this
State, for six years from the fourth of March last
This selection will be cordially responded to by
the Wings Of Michigan; for although Messrs.
Blddle, Chipmnn, Howard, Van Fossen, Noble and
others, had warm friends among the members of
the Legislature and people, and although either of
the gentlemen would have honored the station had
they been chosen TO it-st than AUGUSTUS S.
Porter, no man has rendered more efficient SER
vice in the struggle for correct principles, and
man is more deserving of the honor which tho
Legislature has seen fit to confer upon him.
The selection of a Wing from Michigan TO fill
tie important Office Of Senator in the Senate OF
the United States, will be a matter of graduation
TO The Wings, not only of this State but of the
Union. This selection nearly consllnImates the
Wing triumph III this State. There IRE few
more appointments to make, when Michigan (heav-
ell bless her y will present almost as fair an es-
culcheon as never faltcring Vermont herself
