Some new expedient must be devised for still
retaining the public money from the United

lty belonging to the party, the sub-treasury
scheme was proposed to the American people
as new experiment purporting to be able to
relieve the distresses that cried aloud from ev-
cry portion of the Union. Its advocates en-
deavored to show that the constitution pointed
out no method to keep the peoples money but
in the hands of the Executive and his cabinet
who were servile tools in his hands, kept in
awe OF his power under the pain of dismissal
rom ofhce-and that the constitution points
out no check npon his power but that of Con-
gress; and when committees are appointed to
examine the affairs of any department they are
met upon the threshold with denial of their

question Of serious importance, but easily an
swered! For the last two years, it has been
as fully and fairly in operation, as i: the bill
had actually passed. Since the specie circu-

DEMOCRACY.

Amidst the pressure of the times 1t cannot
have escaped the notice even Of the lukewarm
of the wing party that very large proportion
of the distress that has been visited upon the
people can be ascribed TO the policy Of the
democrats, so selEstJled, Or rather to the
measures of the present Administration. A
condensed statement of the Leading doctrines
upon the subject of Banks will expose this mat
ter in a clear point ofview..
Gent. Jackson commenced his political ca
reer with violent attack upon the United
States Bank His first complaints were lev
eled at its yenality and corruption, and cum
brous tones were spread before Congress, to
prove that it was inexpedent from the fact that
it had not benefited exchange Bother matters
OF equal Importance. His proof faied--he
next attacked its solvency, and from this fol
lowed that memorable event which viii not be
forgotten by the present generation--the re-
moval Of the deposites. At this time he sol
emily declared to the American people tha
.sHE TOOK THE RESPONSIBILITY and in thu
same breath, as II IN mocKery OF their goo
sense, told them that he was satisfied that tn
State Banks were the only safe repositories
the Public funds. Then followed system G
s.Pet Banks that were employed for The sat
keeping efthe peoples money. Such was III
doctrine and so great was the belief among tn
ranks of the democrats in the intuitive knowl
edge of their great leader upon all politics
subjects, that it was swallowed as an opinio
eminating not only from the Purest patriotism
but from the most profound wisdom. The sy'
tenn proves itself to be utterly devoid Of thos
advantages so earnestly hoPedfOr andso high
Wanted by the democratic party. The r

SOUTHERN ARGUS.
COLUMBUS, TUESDAY APRIL7

Most cheering are the accounts we hear
from all sections Of this vast Union concerning
Gent. Harnson's augmenting popularity. In
deed, so tired have the people become of the
oppressive measures Of Martin Van Buren,, that
they can scarcely wait until November next,
the time fixed by law, to proclaim his success
And when that time shall arrive-and
the country be rid as we have every reason to
believe it will, of its present corrupt Rulers,
the rejoicing that will 60 forth from this mighty
nation who have suffered so long and so pa
tiently, win be great indeed so much SO that
the mind will be left incompetent to conceive
its vast extent. 1t will be one universal burst
of GLORY in which millions upon millions
will join with hearts OVERLOOKING with praise
for their deliverance.
Does the soldiers heart throb with ioy, when
the time arrives for him to return to his home
after many a well fought field, to embrace the
partner of his bosom, and the children who
have almost attained to mans estate during his
protracted stay? Does the ship-wrecked ma
rinner, cast on some lonely lie, view with de-
light the distant bark borne swiftly by the ia
vored breeze to relieve him from hunger and
death, and restore him to the bosom of his fam
lily and friends? If these things are so, how
;hen will it be when a whole NATION-fif-
teen millions of human beings-are restored
their liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
again-conscious, that soon prosperity-that
prosperity from which they had been hurld in
an evil hour by ruthless hand, viii soon over
take them; when quetude and peace, and all
their attendant blessings will smile once more
in those hearts but so recently doomed to de-
spair. Ay, let there be Jubilee! and let the
land be full of it,! We do believe it were
worth visit from the "isles of the sea" and
the remote corners of the Globe--from the
north and the south, the east and the west-to
witness the rejoicings of this people, at that
time
