Conviction OF MaGisOn--his Con-
tpSsjnn.

The testimony in the case OF Madison. in-
dicted with Others for the murder OF Jesse
Baker, Was closed Yesterday obout 4 o'clock.
and the arguments OF counsel occupied some
two hours. The case was then given 10 the
Jury. They retired for a lew minutes; and
then returned into Court with verdict o. gu2.
ty of murder in the first degree. The pris.
oner received the annunciation of the YER
dict with a rigidity of c%ountenance truly as
tonishing. Not u feature underwent the
least change: the grasping Of his hat, in a
rather unusual manner, was tie only thing
indicating the existence of any struggle in
the mind of this hardened villain. He was
Immediately taken from the Court House to
the jail.
The moment he was placed within its
doors, all his assumed fortitude gave way.-
He sank down upon 4 low seat in the passage
way, and expressed a wish TO see a gentle
man in this city-using his name-and then
went on to detail a variety of circumstances
connected with the case. Some of them
are evidently, true but the story was a mix
ture of truth and falsehood--the dictate of a
malignant, devilish, spirit. He acknowledged
the justice OF his sentence-that he partici-
pated in the murder of Baker, and the events
of that night Of horror; but said that Ennis
ought to take tine place of Brown. for he was
the most guilty OF them all. He denied all
knowledge of Brown. and said that Warrick.
Sewell. Ennis. Peter OFallon. or Charleville
as he is commonly called, and himself, were
all the persons engaged in the tragedy. But
his story was, in some parts, improbable;
and this morning he denied. when c%onfron-
ted with Leah. the wife Of Charleville, a part
of the tale of the night previous, in which
she was said TO have borne a part. That
Ennis did not participate in the murders and
arson was established on the trial yesterday
by the testimony of Mr.. Parker, who saw
him at the Barber shop about 10 o'clock, and
by other witnesses, who proved that he was
at his boarding house from that time until the
fire broke out.
The jailor informed us that Madison and
Brown were. shortly after their confinement
in jail. brought face to face, at a moment,
when they could not have expected it; that
they eyed each other sternly, without be-
traying any visible sign of recognition; and
after Madison had passed into his cell, he
coolly asked who that negro was whom he
had seeni-Era.

A BASHFUL LOVER

AGreen Mountain boy fell in love with a
very pretty girl and determined to "court

house and found her alone.

SIN nicely--,ake a cheer, Jonathan saws

Jonathan took a chair, and seated himself
IN the iarthest corner of the room, as though
the beauty was a thing to be feared rather
than loved.

during which time Jonathan amused himself
by whiting a stick.

TIE SPIRIT OF ARISTOCRACY.

The Philadelphia Ledger in an excellent
article on the great disposition Of Il certain
class OF our citizens have to speak Of the
great body of the people as the common
people"-"rahb'e'-lowc. orders &C., very
poin,edly remarks:
.'We witness an exhibition of this feeling
al every meeting of those citizens whose
business is Incompatible with studiou, atten-
ton 10 apparel. THUS. when 4 great num-
Der of mechanics and laborers assemble in
Independent Square, TO deliberate upon the
disorders by which they are always affected,
because, when Il bank fails, its deprecated
notes are distributed, in small sums, in tier
pockets. and well dressed clerks or students
and not unirequentIy the well dressed mer-
chant or professional man. turn up their nos
es in their contempt, and say II is only 4
meeting nf the rabble, tie ragamutiinS, the
lower orders, and not OF the gentleman. the
intelligence and responsibility. So when Il
large crowd o! citizens, mostly mechanics l.
lahorers, lately assembled 10 greet Mr.. Van
Buren, upon. his return To New York. the
spruce wors!ipcrS OF fashion in appare! were
heard in dIsparaEing remarks about the low
er orders, the rabble. the ragamuilinS.'

A respectable farmer informed us, not long
since. that, for the last ten years, he has salt
ed his horses every day. and that. in all that
period he has never had 4 sick horse. We
advise all our friends to initiate his example.
by shifting their horses, cattle. and stock of
all kinds. every day. A liberal supply OF
salt is one of the best things in the world TO
keep stock in a healthy, thriving condition..
To avoid The trouble of daily feeding. the
salt for the cattle and horses at pasture might
be put in troughs, in sufficient quantities TO
last several days, where they could lick it up

THE BANK OF TIE UNITED
STATES

"keep il in mind that The exploded Bank
of the United States, was not q National but
a Pennsylvania corporation. Keep it also
in mind that it was chartered by Il thorough
going L~ocofoco Legislature. This "Monster
Of inquiry as the Locos call it, is one OF
their own paintings"
We cut the above from this mornings Ga
zette. IL is Il fair specimen Of the manner
in which the advocates of Il new United
States Bank, seek to gloss over the corrup-
ton of the old one.
Keep ii in mind. that the House Of Repre-.
sentatives Of Pennsylvania, in which the bill
TO rechnrter the exploded Bank of the Uni
ted States, originated was composed of SIX
TY-EIGHT WIGS and THIRTY-TWO
DEMOCRATS.
Keep it in mind, that every one of those
slxrY-ErcHr Wings, present, VOTED FOR THE
BILL, and every one Of the rHrRrY-rwo Demo-
GRATIS, present, VOTED AGAINST II.
Keep IL in mind, that in the Senate, where
here was a Democratic majority, every
Wing Senator VOTED FOR THE BILL,
and every true Democrat AGAINST rr-and
that it was got through by securing the votes
Of four or five apostates and perfidious trait
ors from the Democratic ranks.
Keep in mind, that erery one of one those
traitors came out MenceforM as an open
IVhig-that C. b. Penrose, the chief of them
was elected by the Wings, two years after
wards, as the Speaker of the Senate, and
that he went through the country last fall,
making Wing speeches.
Keep ii in mind, that Penrose and Dickey
and Burden, three OF those recrearts, haue
been rewarded With office, by the present I'D.
ministrdtion.
Keep it in mind, that Nicholas Biddle, told
the stockholders of the Bank, that he had
secured for them "a better aud q stronger
charter" than they formerly had.
Keep it in mind, that the Bank was to all
intents and purposes, a National Bank,-that
il established branches in many of the States
and agencies in all, and that it undertook to
regulate the currency and exchanges, foreign
and domestic. And.

Keep Tin mind, that it "adopted the rules
and regulations Of the Parent Bank"-re-is.
sued Its notes-was controlled by the same
men-kept up the exchange committee--and
did all its business precisely in that secret
and corrupt manner, on account of which
Gen. Jackson removed the public money
from ii--and that it has now exploded, just
exactly as the "Od Roman said it would
blow up.
These are plain and undeniable facts, in
the face of which Judge Wright makes the
above statements.
The advocates of another National Bank
must think the people ignorant and servile
enough to tamely bend their necks to the
yoke that is being prepared for them, or
they, would not attempt thus shamelessly to
impose upon them.

In Missouri there are over $4,000 men
who are called on to do militia dutv fan,
times a year. The time of these men !.
worth at least one dollar a day. Tbere:
then a loss to the State of tco hundred ~.
sand dollars a year, by the training of The
mlltla.a sum that would pay for making
forty miles of turnpike road.
The loss sustained by the United Stats
from the same source cannot be less than
ten or twelve million of dollars. We saw
nothing about the generalization Of the peo
pie effected by this system. 1t is too grea,
to lie computed.
We hope to see the day when the mliti,
system will cease to be the ridiculous farce
it is at present.
The above we cut from the Hannibal Jour.
nal, and we cannot but hope that the Edito,
will present this subject more at large, at some
future time. We promise him our feebT.
aid in directing public attention to it. A,
at present constituted, our militia system Is a
burlesque upon every thing like military discip-
line and if abetter system connot be adopted,
we would do better without any at all. No
man is any better prepared for the duties of
the camp and the field by the mastering and
training which our system requires,
and the State, or the people receive no ade.
quate compensation for the loss of time and
expense of attending muster, and the de-.
morallzation of the people, which is conse..
quent upon the present system. Time is the
poor mans capital, and every day that he.
~looseS. is so much clear loss to him and 70.
the production of tie country.
If we add to this the expense of buyinp
uniforms, colors &C., the loss Of the State
is greatly increased. And what private is
better prepared for the duties of the tented.
field than if he had never lost an hour
in mastering or training? Indeed. how many
officers have we that understand enough Of
their duties, TO give instruction to others!-
Nothing is learned-nothing is gained-and.
If we cannot improve the militia law the
gam to the people and the wealth of the,
would be immense, to abolish it eu-

+ @The farmers of this and the adjoining.
counties are now busily engaged in taking
the crop of tobacco of the last year &c Mar
ket. From the quantity already shipped,
we are induced TO believe that the estimate
we heretofore made of the quantity made last
year in this section Of the state was much
too low. Fifteen hundred hogsheads, We
have no doubt will be shipped from our river
towns, louisiana and GAINESVILLE during the
present season. Estimating each hogshead to
be worth in the aggregate $40 and we have
the sum Of SlO5,OoO coming to this, and the
neighboring counties from this product alone.
Or these 1900 hogsheads, four ffths at least
will be sold at New Orleans, through the
intervention Of Commission Houses, and per-
haps not one tenth part Of the amount of
sales will he transmitted to the producer, in
money. The planter receives the proceeds
of his tobacco, b. drafts on mercantile hous.
es,in ST. Louis Baltimore Philadelphia or N.
York, which he can very often sell at a pre-.
MUM to the merchant here. What is not re-
mItted in this way, is brought back in the
form Of groceries, and other articles of con-
sumption, needed by the farmer. 1t iSIior the

if they suffer any greatloss or Inconvenience,
from the mode in which this business is now
transacted. Has it ever been done at less

BANK QUESTION.
This question was not put in issue in the
Presidential election; but what of that
Concealment is, in many cases, as much an
element of fraud as direct falsehood is in
others. Neither Gen. Harrison nor Mr.. Ty.
Ter clearly unmarked his intentions in this
respect to the people SO as to bring it 10 u
distinct issue even in the Congressional cleo
lions now going on; but what of that? 1t may
be 4 continuation Of last years policy, first
TO get The power, and then insult the people
who conferred it, by telling them, "you have
sanctioned all our concealed schemes, and
now IRE shaNdo as we please" A NATION
AL BANK is the great rallying point Of the
Wing leaders. and they will establish one
IF THEY CAN and IF THEY DARE!
We do not see how President Tyler can
approve an act chartering a United States
Bank. Having, down 10 the fall Of fs4O,
sanctioned the idea that he could not support
such an institution, or on any fitting occa-
sion omit to vote for its destruction. WITH
OUT \ VIOLATION OF HIS OFFICIAL
OATH, it does not seem possible that, in
lS41, he has brought his mind to disregard
that awful consideration, if even he has
come TO the conclusion that Bank would
be expedient if it were CONSTITUTIONAL Re-
cent developments, instead Of Strengthening
the cause OF the Bank in any well balanced
mind, have tended only 10 make apparent
its dangers and its mischiefs. President w.
Ter cannot, under existing circumstances.
change his position without infamy- Ii he
does, history will seek no language more
strong or more true to hand down his unen-
viable fame 10 posterity than that used by
him on this very subject in 1919.
But the Wing leaders intend to force 4
Bank on the country in violation of the Con-
s~titution and in fraud of the people. The
Democracy are not authorized TO rest their
security on the former opinions or declara-
,ians of a Wing President. They must rein
on Themselves, and ii is essential now 10 in
qulre by what means they are tn proven, the
consumation Of this premedita,ed usurpa-l
ton.
l. Let them use all practicable means to
prevent the passage of an act by Congress to
charter a Bank of the United States in anv
shape Let them make known their opin-
ions and determination in the event that the
effort shall be successfully made.
9. Let them with one voice. in Congressand
out ,announce their unalterable determination
nerer 10 cease warring upon The ner Institution
until 1t shalIbe destroyed. Congress cannot
make avalid contract or pledge the public faith
in violation of the Constitution. Let The Demo-
Gratis announce that they consider any act,
chartering National Bank roid from he be.
ginning; that they will treat it as a nulllty
whenever called on 10 act rs officers of the
State or General Governments, whether as

citizens, they will support no man for public
station who will not act with them; and that
they will never cease their agitation and an

AN IMPORTANT lNvENrIoN.-The Leesburg,
Va, Genius Of Liberty states that Messrs.
Phillips & Jackson have invented and pat
ented a machine for cleaning wheat, which
will separate garlick, cookie, cheat and all
impurities from the grain. 1t is said that the
machine can be furnished at a price within
the reach Of any one who may require the
use Of it,. This invention, if it answer the
purpose stated, will be of essential use to far.
mers, as the great difficulty, and indeed i'm
possibility, OF separating garlick. &C., from
wheat and rye, has deducted largely from the
value Of their crops. We have no doubt
the machine will be introduced into general
use.
