II The Richmond Wing says it is beginning to
understand things inasmuch as the Madisonian, the
organ of Mr.. Tyler, exuts the defeat of the
Wings in Maryland and Georgia. IL this be so, it is
wrong; but have not received the Madisonian con-
tanning such exultation.-Neto Orleans Bulletin.
Nor has the Richmond Wing, nor the Cou
rer and Enquirer. The accusation against us
is untrue, yet we do not doubt that the Courier
and Enquirer has repeated it often enough tc
believe it. The most extraordinary appeal made
TO the Wings we have yet seen is that Of the
latter paper, in which they are exhorted to arouse
for the sake of Notifying the Madisonan, and
preventing US from exulting over Wing defeats
The appeal is strange compound OF insanity
vulgarty, insolence and falsehood, which we
presume nobody will regard any more than the
howl Of hyena in menagerie.

From the Cleveland co., Herald.

From the Cleueland ( o. Herald.
We cannot envy that his feelings, who will
pursue the Course that the Editor of the Madisonian
has for the last few months Instead of standing nv
the Wings, and advocating the principles for which
they have long he has gone over body and
soul to the Abstraetionists He has welded his for
tunes to those of the few who left the Whip ranks
during the Extra Session.
We are glad to perceive that there is even one of
our adversaries without "envy;" but we regret to
perceive at the me that he has little charity
as to charge with not standing by the Wings
and advocating their principles" after they had &C.
cording to his own showing, left the Wing ranks"
The place for the Wing ranks, we had thought, was
around the Wing Administration. Here we nave
ever remained, land here we shall abide, "body and
soul" If the 1itor of the Herald and his Wing
friends are not with now, it is because he and his
psrty have left the Wing ranks.
But, a closing word to the "principles for which
they have SO long commended" What it but some
Of the principles" that produced the contention that
has divided the party7 If So is the fault of having
"gone over" in us the principles I" Then what
remains against us for having left the Wing ranks
but the previous charge ofabandonng their abandon
ed principles Z"

Organ" Hear his solo:
"Those in high places are very apt to look with
contempt upon the intelligence and patriotism of the
great bulk of the people"
1--WE shall not pretend at oil to sing counter to this
to ask whether the organst of the Courier speaks from
observation experience? Whether he sings by rote,
or by note? But hear his Soiloquy1
"And the very idea of his being compelled, by the
popular voice, to act differently from what their feel
ings or interests dictate is very generally scouted* at
and derded as in the present instance by some plant
tool of power"

But how little do we envy thee, if such be the fruits

A NATIONAL CURRENCY.

The INDISPENSABLE ELEMENTS OF A NATIONAL
CURRENCY must combine
I. Uniformity.
II. Safety.
III. Convenience.
Nv. Convertlbility.
V. And entire public confidence.
Invariability in value is the great desideratum
Of currency. So great is the advantage of a
paper currency over metallic, that its tendency
is rather to increase than diminish in value,
when the basis is perfectly secure-and no
greater security can possibly be given, than the
plghted faith of the Government to whose
hands are confded the fortunes, lives and honor
of the people This is the highest of all posi-
BILE human security.

THE WAYNE CoUNTYRECoRD INDIANA.

THE WAYNE COUNTY RECORD CIndiana.)
We are happy to perceive that the editor of
the "Wayue County Record" in the following
paragraph, has "set down the defeat ofthe Wing
party to different cause" from that to which
we ascribed it: -
"The Editor Of the 'Madisonian' attributes the de-
feat Of the Wings to the fact, that since the Vetoes
of the President Mr.. Clay has sought to become the
leader of the Wing party and that the recent cleo
tons exhibit proper rebuke to his ambitious preen-
tons. Such conc usion is doubtless desirable, and
may be satisfactory to the Editor of the Madisonian
who is the acknowledged exponent and defender Of
the Presidents views but very certain that the
Wings of this country set down the defeat of their
party to very different cause They charge the dis
union, and consequent disastrous results to the Wing
party, on John Tyler, who, elected as Wing, and
pledged TO carry out Wing measures has turned trait
to the party that elevated him topower and in
DOING has thereby disheaI tened and sown dssension
in the Wing ranks. This is the true cause of the de-
feat of the Wings"
But we are at loss to perceive how this
Every different cause" reflects any great honor
upon the Wings, which was undoubtedly the
aim of the editor. We cannot very clearly per-
ceive why the Presidents turning TRAITOR
should necessarily "sow dissension in the
ranks" of true-hearted, patriotic, and devoted
Wings Was it not their treachery to their
own principles and professions that caused the
"dissentions ?"
This pretended ''treachery" to the Wing par,
ty is very paltry excuse for their "dissension''
and ''defeat." Did the treachery of Judas make
the disciples yield up their faith or the
treachery of Arnold cause the patriots of the Re-
volution to throw down their arms2
The Editor of the "Record' must discover
some ''cause" more german to the purpose,
ay, and remove the "cause," too-before he can
count upon any fair prospect of either a Wing
victory, or of "headimg John Tyler"

DEPRECIATION OF THE CURRENCY.

The most subtle, but the most sure OF all
means of robbing the laborer of his hire, is by
degrading the currency of the country. 1t is by
this means, that the English Government has
been enabled constantly and successfully to rob
labor of its reward, for almost three and half
centuries from the 28th year of Edward |. to
the 9Th year of the reign Of VICTORIA from
Ammo Domini 1900, 10 Ammo Domini 1s4l. No
means to make the poor poorer, and the rich
richer, and to PROSTATE the people at the foot OF
power, could have been better adapted to its end,
than this of DEGRADING THE CURREN-
CY, to ensure the degradation Of the people.
The success of three and half centuries, attests
the atrocious forecast of the experiment, and
the prepense malice of tyranny by which it has
been so successfully tried
From the Norman conquest, 1866, to the 2sth
Edward ILL.,, twenty shillings in tale, were ex-
actly pound in weight. But from this period
to the Sd Edward vi. (1549) the degradation OF
the coin was constantly increasing, till its no.
minal value increased from 2Os. to 72 three hun
dred and fifty per cent.-andc3 OF. was called
pound-and FL became f3 IL. Gold does not
appearto have been used as currency till 1344-
when the pound weight of gold was coined into
f13 3s 4d.-the pound value is now swelled
into f46 Ids. Cd. D.
We have seen the same mode of plumber and
oppression practised in our own country by a
species of similar means, adapted to the same
end, which has produced like result, making
the rich richer, and the poor poorer.
In half century, the number of Banks have
increased from three, to nine hundred and one
and from capital of three millions to near four
hundred millions, on a metallic basis of only
between thirty and forty millions-thus issuing
twelve nominal dollars in rags upon basis Of
one in coin-thus degrading the standard of va
lue eleven hundred fold.
Need we wonder at the condition of the peo-
| pie, and the country, when we see the cause SC
plainly?
