elias the Legislature repealed all the
Bank Charters?1 said loco foco friend
of ours a day or Two since. Not that we
have heard of, was our reply, bat they
promised to do so, and are bound to re-
deem their pledges. We think it proba-
bic they will repeal them. 1T cannot

We copy the following judiclous re-
marks from the Raymond Times, on the
various propositions to reduce the fees
of the various office rs in the State. We
regret we have no, room for the commu-
nication referred 10.
The communication of "A LOCKER On,
in to-day's '.Times," must convince eve
ry dispassionate mind that, the bill now
before the Legislature, will have ten
dcncy rather 10 stop the operations of
the Officers in the performance of their
duties, than to afford relief TO the COM
munity. II will be perceived at glance
that no man, however patriotic, can con-
iinue in office, when by doing SO, he is
likely to be minus for his pains. The
bill is oppressive and odious when viewed
in another light. Is it good policy 10
enrich the Treasury by wringing from
the poor debtor hislast farthiBg? IL the
object of the bill be to afford relief why
