THE SPECULAToR.-His wealth is imagi-
nary ard nowhere. He contracts debts and
calculates on miracles to pay them--he trusts
every body and every body trusts him, while
the ball can be kept up; and when it falls to
the ground, they all roll away and perish to-
gether. The idea of owing more than he ever
reasonably expects to pay, does not rob him
ola wink of his sleep, or disturb his repose Tor
oment-"Eat, drink and be merry, for
to- morrow we de-" is his maxim; he lives
as the world was at his command; he des'
pises the sordid maxim of cutting hlscoat &C.
cording to his cloth, for the cloth belongs te
another; he goes the way of all flesh, ant
when his books are examined by the assign
ees, it is found though he had lived like
prince, and spent his hunereds of thousands
he never was worth a farthing, when hi
debts were paid.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

The locoiocos m NY blow about their hon.
esty and integrity till they crack their cheeks.
and the People will not believe them. The
evidences Of fraud-concealed by the Adj
mlnlstratIon, and protected by their power.
are strong and undoubted. 1t has become
vain effort for servant of the People 10
present the cases of known fraud, aud de-
mand an investigation. The Heads of De-
partments treat such demands with CONTEMPT
the majority in Congress refuse even to
consider them. We have already given in
stances of the truth of this. We now ad-
duce further instance.
In the House of Representatives of the
United States on the Goth Nav, uIt., Mr..
Chinn, of Louisiana offered the following
resolution:
ReSotred, That the postmaster general
communicate to this House without DELAY,
the time at which the postmaster at Baton
Rouge, Louisiana, became defaulter, the
time, number, and amount of the various
drafts which have been drawn upon him, and
which he refused or neglected to pay, and
particularly the amount now due by said
postmaster TO the government;-also all the
communications which have been written or
received in relation to said defalcations, to-
gether with all other correspondence which
has occurred touching the removal from Of
hce OF said postmaster, and the appointment
of a successor"
Now, what more reasonable than that the
servants of the People should be made ac-
qIainted with all the circumstances of this
default? 1.-THE hands of the postmaster gen
eral were clear of the guilt of his subordi-
nate, why not submit the case 10 CongressP
The party in the House objected to the con-
sideration of the resolution, and the infer
ence is fair, that the powers at Washington
fear to permit their connexion with the de-
taulter 10 become known to the People
