Gen. Harrison is, of course the President.
But there is a power behind the throle greater

ment ofhis rival. Gen. Harrison rotres at the
end of four years. Mr., Clay is to become the
candidate of the Federal party. Mr. Webster
gives way, for the present, with the hope o.
succ eeding Mr.. Clay. The one goes into the
Cabinet and will attempt to promote his own e.
lection, by advocating the pretensons OF Mr..

HOPE.-We cut the following beautiful and
graphic description of hope and its uses from
the Detroit Spirit oi'76-
Hope is the great handspring Of virtue. 1t
gives action to all animlte existence. 1t 10 the
bread which feeds ambition, ,the incentive to
perseverance, the compeer to virtue. the shield
to christianity, and the only solace to death. II
ltis 5lightod, the pilgrimage Of life is like a
troubled sea- we float down its dark stream
like the lost mariner on the jlowy deck. Aided
BY It's beams, the immortal mind looks;beyond
time and anticipates the beauty Of another and
happier existence. The beauty ofthe rainbow
vanisheS in the storm, the meteor's flush is bu,
q moment; the gliltering gems of heaven will
one day 60 out; the sun himselfhe sx,inguish.

Nor is it scarcely possible 10 mlslaEe the spur

ed. 1t will be dyed deeu in Federalism. Messrs
Clay and Webster Will give tone TO the whole
machine. The restraints which have been i'm
posed by the strict construction of the constltu'
lion, are 10 be superseded. Powers arc to be
exefcised, which were never intended TO be
conferred by its trainers. The Independent
Treasury is to be abolished, only for the purpose
o! throwing the fiscal agency INTO the hands Of
the Pennsylvania Bank ofthe United States
which is hereafter to receive National charter,
or to prepare the way for the establishment Of
National Bank. with larger capital and Of lon-
ger duration. The mystery which envelopes
Mr. Clay, for the present, will be dissipated III
due season. The time is coming, when he will
not repeat, as lie said the other day in the Sem
ate Chamber, upon being asked what substitute
he would propose, for the Independent Treasu-
ry, that Sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof" He will soon show his hand, and
boldly play the game. His late visit to N. Y.
and Philadelphia, may have prepared the way
for his arrangements. They will be developed
in due time. The leaders of the Administration
will also attempt to distribute the proceeds o.
the Public Lands, and to raise the Tariff. The
CHANGE which Mr. Webster threatened, and
the REFORMS which Mr. Clay promised, are
calculated to sweep away all the restrict tOn'
which Gen. Jackson assisted to produce. There
is too much reason to anticipate that the iror
age of.the Federal Dynasties of the two Adam
Sc may be atte npted TO be brought back upor
us.
From such a combination of factious elements
who can expect any good fruitl Grapes do no

eternal.

The United States Bank, like any other knave
who will not pay hlA debts, except on compul-
sion, has beniitted by tho depreciation of its
paper, aud the continuance Of non-resumpiion,
probably several millions, which may he liken-
ed to so much black mail from the public It,
customers and all those connected with its NOR.
ais and its destiny. have reaped similar advan-
taoes and their quotas of black mail. 1t is not
to be supposed that these institutions would 50
soon forget thei plundel,ng prope1siGes as to
resume, merelyto restore the currency, and to
serve the public, while they have to sustain pos
tive losses by the operation. There is some
other object X, view. The laws Of Pennsylva.

referred to as the coorclve means of n 'resumD>
ton. But we know too well how large
bank, or combination thanks, can WELD Gov
ernors and Legislatures to their will, as gum>
blers do their cards, to believe that they could
not lniuse such spirit as they choose into the
Councils Of the State.
Such being the naked facts Of the case, strip

doubt but portion of the monied interests o

gaHlzlng means to operate iii some shape uI

power on the 9TH Of March next-and also up
on the next Congress, which may meet in Sep
temser next. Coalitions and combinations ar,
developeing themselves among those fnancia
Interests that heretofore were rivals, end bterI,
opposed to each other. What shape they ma,
take, before few months have elapsed, it is al

A NATIONAL BANK.

The important results which will be conse.
quent upon the creation of national Bank are
varied and interesting in the extreme, both in a
political and fiscal point of view.
As we have already stated the capital of such
en- institution. we presume will not be fixed at
less than Fifty millions. The amount of cap.
ituI, however, will be ofno importance in the
consideration ofits constitutionality for, lift is
constitutional at all to create National Bank,
one with capital of three or five hundred mil
lions may be incorporated with as much propri>
ETY. as with that Of three or FIVE thousand; but
assuming the amount Of fifty millious Us the min
imum,f for which the Federal party will contend
land that is tremendous amount to be wel.
ded by irresponsible and self interested agents,
it is not reasonable to suppose that the friends
OF constitutional right, equality and liberty. al.
though they may be in the minority, will quietly
look on and see this gigantic power built up &
fastened upon the government in defiance of all
constitutional barriers, without struggle. No,
no-ifsuch be now the hopes of Federalism,
they will pe vain indeed. Democracy is MOI
yet extinguished, and, though its opponents
may affect to consider it as dead, they will! find
it even 'powerful in DEATH" Even an attempt
then, TO create such power may be attended
with consequences we would gladly avert, ant
we warn its friends beforehand. Wheneve
such an attempt shall be made, it will be met a
: the threshold with an opposition SO decisive il
its character, and firm in its purposes as ma
lead on to the creation of an excitement whic
it would be as difficult to allay as it wonld
to stay the impetuous fury Of tornado with
oarricade ot(sather'. IT, then,t the bare attemT
to incorporate great mcnied power bo sufficier
to create apprehension and alarm offs serious
nature, what may reasonably be supposed to b
the results, should the Federal party, intoxicaie
with victory, and wild with overwhelming po'
er, madly ruSi, onward in their unhallowed p'
po es, and rear this tyrannical monster over tn
u liberties of the people.

PLEDGES AND PROMISES.

PLEDGES AND PROMtSES.
Previous to the late election, our ears were
constantly salu,ed with the promises and pled-
ges ofwha, the Wings were going TO do if
they elected Gen. Harrison. Now forsooth, we
hear not word about the flowing OF milk and
honey" which would follow change in the
Administration. Probably they proceed upon
the principle, that promises are cheap and cost
no,hins,' as Mr.. Webster says and justly con-
cudng that as they were mado only TO deceive
the people and 'bough EN- all round with sre-
cious appearances, 1t now matters but little
whether the people are satisfied or not. But
they are not so easily put off. If the streets are
to flow with milk and honey, they want to see
the stream, and seeing it, they will want the
spoon 10 ca, it with. Likely enough the people
have begun 10 think with Gen. Harrison, that
the man who makes Il pledge before election
will 10 sure TO brcak it afterwards for surely
so far as his party and their pledges are concern
ed, this is confirmed by daily experience. Ev-
cry Democrat should bear these pledges inmlnd,
every man who wanted change" and voted
with view of ofbettering things, should remem-
her the promises, and tho Wings should be con
stanty kept in mind in reference to the natter
in word, should be- "kept before the peo-
ple,' so that they may observe the first step to-
wards their fuflment, or their violation. What
have they promised What have they NOT
promisedl Hho can telli Why, ono thing
they have promised, to make money plenty ev>
cry where, without any regard to circumsan>
ees. They have promised that the expenses Of
the National Government shall not exceed $IO.
100000 year. They have promised to con,
duct the government free from ans considera-
tons of a party character. Their President toe
