its organization of federal ofIice-holders into
band Of devoted and untiring partizans. its

not only of performing the duties ofthe Com

THE SUB-TREASURY

This measure is still under discussion in
the House Representatives to the exclusion
of every thing else. Three Administration
men made speeches in favor of it on Monday.
We suppose from the following in the Ma
disonian, that the Administration will pass
it, though their movements in the House look
but little like it
"ON DIT.-Ihat Mr.. Van Buren, has been
anxious to postpone the passage of the Sub
Treasury, alleging as a reason, that he could
accomplish more for himself and party with
that measure pending than established. That
Mr.. Calhoun had serious interview with Mr..
Van Buren,, demonstrating against the post
ponement of the measure, declaring that it
was for that alone he came to his support
that he could effect nothing as his aally''
without it, and that, if he, (he President
showed any equivocation or hesitancy about
it, he Calhoun could not sustain himselfin
his position. That Mr.. Van Buren, Welded
through fear of losing Mr.. Calhoun-that a
caucus was held after toe interview, and the
bold step of abrogating the standing rules, for
the sake Of keeping the ub.Treasury bill up
till it passed, was resolved upon and accord
ingly executed"

AN EXTINGUISHER!

Brandon Bank.-The Mississippi papers
stated some time since, that Mr.. Shelton ex-
president of the Brandon Bank, and Mr.. Hot
son, a director, had ran away from the State,
carrying with them large number Of negroes.
1t appears from the Vicksburg Sentinel, that
aparty of holders of Brandon bank notes, at
Columbus, received information of the route
they took, which was to reach Virginia, and
overlook them in Alabama. They then mas
tered the party and took away thenegroes, pay
ing for them at tie marketraics an tie brandon
notes they held at par.
Tbsis novel way of getting bank billsre-
deemed, and were it not for the outIawish
spirit displayed by it, might be recorded as
one Of the very best incidents in the swindling
bank drama which has been enacted in that
region.

ETtract from Gen. Hayrison's LeHe

ETtrdct from Gen. Hdrriso7'S Letter.
GAIL the connexion which ever had with
the Corresponding Committee of the Whies
of Hamilton county Chat which / suppose
has been alluded to- is, that requested the
committee, thro' its chairman, Mai. Gwynne.
to give the information sought for, in some
of the numerous letters received, in relation
to my political opinions, and events in nv
past life. This was to be done by sending to
the writers of those letters the documents
which contained the information they sought.
He was, also, authorized, in cases where fur
ther opinions were asked for, to state my de-
termination to give no other pledges of what
] would or would not do, if / should be elect
ed to the Presidency. The reasons which
had induced me to adopt this determination
are contained in a letter written to commit
tee in New York, and which will, ! presume,
be soon published. With neither of the 9th
er members of the committee did ever ex-
change one word, or, by letter, give or re-
celve any suggestions as to the manner in
which the task had assigned to the commit
tee was TO be performed. Indeed, did not
know, until very recently, who were the men,
bers of the committee. | could have no
doubt of their being my political and person.

GsOur Van Buren, friend will see that we
have gratiied him with the publication of his
extract from DR.. Duncan's Speech. We O.
pine, however, that the admirers of the staid
and sober Democracy of the olden time will
be slow to perceive its lineaments in DR.. Dun
can. His whole language and department
show him to be loco-foco-and that he has
taken on him the name of Democrat merely
for the sake Of gentility, that he may be en-
abled the better to carry out his principles /;
but his rowdyism is too strong for con-
cealment.

The Van Buren, papers are exulting over
the change of r. N. WicklifIe, of Lexington,
Kentucky, to their side-and well they may
for they have little to brag of in that way.
The Louisville Journal, however, unveils the
motive of this change. Mr.. Wicklif1e want
ed seat in Congress, but the Wings would
not support him.
