M,LEOD.S CASE.

We gave, few days ago, the positive
testimony of several witnesses, swearing
to the presence ofMcLeod at the destruc

ing that the federalsts had carried this
district, although their majority had been
reduced nearly 200 since the last fall

continues to crow louder and faster as

MASS CONVENTION AT KINGS.
TNN

IN immense multitude Of Democrats
from the river counties assembled at King
s;on yesterday. Boat loads of men were
poured in from al the villages along the
liver, as well as from this CITY. and wagon
loads came from the towns Of the interi-
or. The scene on the creek, as delega-
lion after delegation arrived, was most an-
imaiing. The music from the various
bands alernatcd with the roaring of
the cannon and the shouting Of the peO-
pie.
At,vo O'Clock in the afternoon, Lucas
Elmendorr was called 10 preside, and the
other officers appointed. Letters were
first read from distinguished men, stating
the reasons for not being able to attend
the convention. A series Of able and
spirited resolutions were proclaimed, and
received with deafening cheers by the
people. The resolutions sustained the
veto power, and the exercise Of it by Mr..
Tyler-tbey condemn, in the strongest

SUSPENDED PAPER.

The Bank paper now circulating among
the farmers is worth only from 30 to Ga
cents on the dollar. The brokers and
banks pocket the difference, besides the
interest on the trash they put in circula,
ton. If the legislature compel the banks
to resume specie payment this difference
will be saved for the farmers and produ-
cling classes, who take the notes at par.

THE DEMOCRATIC TRUMP.


We this week have the pleasure Of con-
veying to our readers the gratifying in
telIigcnce of the triumph of Democracy
in Ohio. All the districts are heard
from, and it is ascertaned that there will
be a democratic majority of two in each
branch of the next Legislature. This is
indeed gratifying triumph of truth over
error--oC virtue over vice, and Of law
over anarchy. A privileged aristocracy
of bankers had set themselves above all
laws, and set an example ofswindling and
dishonesty which threate ned 10 displaco
all principles Of honesty and virtue, and
to involve the country in a state of anar
ely. TIE triumph OF deception and

ted this deporable state Of the country.
But the result Of the election Just held
in This and other States, proves that there
is still virtue and patriotism sufficient in
the land 10 preserve it from utter destruc.
ton, and that "the sober second thought"
of the people is always right. The Leg.
islature of Ohio, just elected will doubt
less compel bankers to submit to the laws
like private individuals, or deprive them
of the charters under cover Of which they
persist in defrauding the people of mil
lions OF dollars.
The federal leaders endeavored TO u,ge
their partizans 10 action by representing
the extraordinary importance Of the elec-
ton. But the people had had sample
ofiederaI legislation afforded by the extra
ordinary session Of Congress, and conse-
quently sucIr representations only impress
sed them with the necessity of having
better men with better principles in Office
and they acted accordingly.
Although large and respectable ma.
iority OF the citizens Of Brown county
will be misrepresentcd, as they were last
winter, in the Legislature, we congraIu-
la:e them that they will have enough dem
ocratic friends there to protect them from
the odious designs of amalgamationists
and irresponsible bankers.

A FISCAL AGENT.

mending the adoption Of a "fiscal agent"

that we cln see no very material differ

sibe, more Objectionable to the bankites
and CIayitcs than the sub-treasury. The

tration; and the communication itself is
supposed to haye come from one having
access TO the White House. We have
expressed the opinion that, although The
Independent Treasury law might be re-
pealed, it or similar plan would ere long
be adopted as the only constitutional mode
Of conducting the financial operations Of
the government. We then scarcely ex-
pected such a plan from the source
whence this recommendation comes
But as President Tyler processes ant
seems to have some regard for his oatl

be greatly surprised to see some such I
plan recommended in his next annu
