"ENGLISH MONEY AND BRITISH AMER
ICAN BANKERSw

ICAN BANKERSw
Under this imposing head, the last Patriot pub
fishes ms precious bumbug as ever was palmed
off upon an intelligent people. The British, It IS
said, are anxious to get foohod in America, and
aim to do it through the wings, and by giving
British money to eleconeer with. What the
British for HARRISON who ihrashed them into shoe
strings in the last war! The British opposing the
locos, who have adopted the BRITISH AC-
COUNTS Of baltles in our last war, and British
ISLANDERS upon Harrison, and who have two uotorl-
Gus British editors now engaged in editing prom
nent Van buren, newspapers The British OPP
posing Van Buren,, while he himself has given
them new chance to get half OF Maine, through
new commission and another European arb-
tration about the North Eastern boundary? The
British anxious to maintain influence and power
in America, and yet opposing Van Buren,, when,
were it not for his proclamations, his neutrality
bill and his bringing American troops to nld Inc
British tories against the Patriots, it is possible II
not probable, that Mt this instant the British would
have been driven from their last foot-hold in Amer
lea and the Cnnadas be acknowledged free aud in
dependent
But what the grounds upon which this pro-
cious humbug is built? First, a money article, as
it is called, from an old N. Y. Herald, in which
Prime Ward King are represented as the agents
Of the Earrings of London, and also as having
carried New York for the Wings. Now what is
the actual position ofPrmc, Ward and King, and
the Baungs2 We cnn tell the Patriot, and the
editor of that paper knows it to he true they have
all stood for the last few years, side by side with
| the Globe and the administration, in making war
upon the u. S. Bank of Pennsylvania Aye those
very same British and American bankers have
been the allies of the locofocos in that bank war!
But there is another thing, viz. n letter purporng
to be from somebody in London to somebody in
New York, describing The very deep interest OF
British capitalists on the Presidential question, and
their great fears of the sub treasury bill Where
al flnt lat fret GOO fha liUI
.NetD Era the very organ OF the British radical
oaiers in New York city the very paper which
adopted British accounts of American battles; the
very Office from which was suspended all Ameri'
can log cabin with the British flag hanging over
it. Ofal elec,oneering stuff this is the most mis-
cradle. The truth is, ifthe British have any thing
all to hope, it is from Van Buren's reelection
In his habsand feelings he is aristocratic; and IN
f his measures, viz. the prosraon OF the tariff and
northern manufactures, and in the sub treasury by
building 40 the South, whose commercial interests
are all with Great Britain, he is doing every thing
that the manufacturers and merchants Of Great
Britain could ask TO favor British interests
We will only add the following, from the Brit
ish allies of that party which ISLANDERS an Ameri-
can Patriot aud General and adopts British
{ counts of American victories.

\ The people of England may now learn lesson
on Republicansm from its most brilliant specimen
j the government Of the u s. 1t has proved splen-
0 did failure. Van Buren,, who learned many useful
tactics in this country, will bring the democrats
round to rational system of nIonarcbist obed-
e ence. Democracy is the best and most powerful
d lever in the world, if pressed judicousy. Mon
l. arches have been upset by it,

!. be knows human nature: he knows his country
men, too, and he has laid the finest train that ever
a, was conceived. lie has prevailed on the popu'
lar old President to set an example OF absouelsn1

~ in that country could have attempted He will
Or initiate mildly and cautiously; but having the

succeed in bringing the whole Union under the

than public school can govern itself without the
superinten dence of master. 1t must be merely

tie down National Bank, which was the most for
e midable obstacle TO executive control, and has col

we are mistaken, more enduring one. 1t wi

or more it will be clever oligarchy, and then til
people will wisely and cheerfuy consent to il
on becoming a limited monarchy.-Van Buren,, W
the believe, has a son or two, and he will probabl
