FRIDAY FORMING, FEBRUARY 81.
THE PENSION FUND.

Read the late proceedings in Congress
on this subject. The President sent a
message to Congress the other day stat
ing that the Treasury was unexpectedly
empty, and that some immediate measure
must be taken to ''raisc the wind" Gu
the same day, an administration member
got pin the House, and witha long-drawn
sanctimonious face, reminded the Speak
or that in few days the "Old Soldiers"
would be clamorlng for their stipends, and
unless an immediate appropriation was
made they would be sent away empty.
1t was moved to suspend all other busi-
ness, and appropriate three millions, in
stantcr. An inquiry was made, however,
as to the amount of money already in the
hands ofpension agents, and it turns out
that there is enough, into fraction, ITO
c0Ucr the next twO instruments! And
yet congress is asked to appropriate s.
100000 of borrowed money, gear IN
adrancc. And for what! Why, for the
benefit of the pension agents-for the
benefit of4l Sub-Trcasurers, such for
instance, as Augustine Clark nothing
more nor less than distributing three
millions of the peoples money as re-
ward to partizans-and at a time too
when there is more than two millions of
again at the door of Congress proclaiming
the treasury bankrupt! But read the
mhole proceeding as detailed under our
Congressional head.

Multitudcs who were but recently sup
porters of Van Buren,, are coming out
Tor Harrison and rctorm-in the free
States. The people have been promised
reform, better times, and ga better cur

now have no hope of ever seeing fulfilled,
under the existing reign, and they are es-
pousing the cause of Harrison. Thou
sands are leaving the ranks of the oppres-
sors. Even in our own State changes
daily come to our knowledge. Men, who
were but yesterday among the foremost

"THE RESPONSIBILITY"

When the present dominant party came
into power, the expenses of the Govern
mcnt were thirteen millions. Within
three years from that time the cxpcndi-
lures reached twenty millions, and for
several years it has exceeded THIRTY.
Who is responsible for this enormous and
prodigal expenditure the administra-
ton, with its overwhelming majoritcs in
both branches of Congress, and its veto
power in the hands of the executive =! or
the opposition, which, by the way, has
never been able to carry but a single inn
portant measure, and that to wrench from
the cormorant grasp of the administration
twenty millions ofthe peoples money for
distributiona mongthe States? Let COM
mon sense answer the question wh0 is
responsible. Rnt tho Sentinel, with a
keenness of perception which is certain
ly uncommon, has made the discovery
that the oppositio"-which, by the way,
the Sentinel has more than once declared
to be too week and insignificant to make
the political contest interesting lis re-
sponsible for the whole. Hear the sage
That party are elernalIy bawling about ex-
travagance, when any one who will take the
trouble to refer to the journals OF Congress
will find inconleslible proof that, as a party,
the federalists have always voted for the ex'
travagant expenditure of the public money.
Not single measure for the last twelve years
can BIO pointed out, which favored an eXlIava'
giant Expenditure of public money, large
majority Of the federal members in Congress
did not support by their votes. Il y y +
And yet these men have the efrontery TO
accuse the Democratic party Of criminal ex'
travagance, and denounce them for the very
appropriations for which they themselves
voted
The argument then stands thus: the
administration by its proiligate course in
crcases the expenses of the government
to thirty millions. The President says to
Congress that this sum is absolutely ne
ccSsary TO keep the wheels in motion. 4
