DEFINING A POSITION.


The Madisoniun, the leading whig paper at Washing
on, says, the
Federal portion Of the Wings is effectually and 9.
ternaIy demolished ana annihlated.'
That's crua dig into the old Federal editor of the
Advocate who has kept his principles rolled up in
coon skin all summer and fall, waiting to see which
party going to be the strongest before he comes out
the hole. The MadiSonan goes on to say,
"a vast portion the Wings have no connection
or fellowship with the Federal Wings. They were
disguised at the aristocratca bearing and violent de-
nuncation of their recent allies they determined not to
flight shoulder shoulder" with them in such an un.
just cause, they went not forth the battle field and
thus forever purged their ranks of ncorrgble party
incubus"
1t is cheering to leBrn that ne of the wings who
fought cheek by jowl with the old Federaliss, have
found out they were fighting in tan unjust cause
So appears them that hereafter are to see the
paper mo icy army take up its line of march for 49, in
two divisions, as follows:
"WHlGS," who were 'dsgusted and said at home
last campaign and thus "purged their ranks of an ncor
rigible party incubus
"FEDERAL WHIGS," who went to the battle and
by their "arstocracal bearing used themselves up.
In the rear of which army is the baggage wagon of
the Advocate going to marchl The driver cannot much
longer remain "Mum." The Presidents message will
probably decide ,ie matter.

POLITICAL IuRIES.

The Newark Gazette stands oghast, afer learning
that the Grand Jury whc found an indictment against
the Mayor ofthattown for issuing shin pasters, was
composed of l2 'Locos and wings. The Gazette
editor ought to have been at the June sesso ofTnsca-
rawas Court when his brother of the Advocate was up
to the bull ring In that case the Jury stood 10 wings
to 2democrats' That jury, politically packed, as 1t
was, could not help convictng him ora base slonGer

THE LEGISLATURE,

Met on Monday last, and of course Tom Corwn's
message is on its way to US. We anticipate much that
he will say, and much that he will say, for instance
the Change that the people have recently gone for
We shall have considerable about the prosperity ofhs
happy people, and the free government we live nnder
governed as it is by paper money olgharchy. Some
thing about the State improvements. but very little on
the State credit lie will ompliment the General goY-
eminent for giving Ohio donation from the public
land sales, (Which we hope the Legislature will send
back and tell the government to pay its debts with the
brbe) The Governor will doubt hint about that o.
dious Veto power AS the wings call it-re,recommend
State Bank and probably walk into the Bankers to kill
The remainder ofthe message will be twaddIe, with
may be recommendation for the repeal ofthc election
law, as 1t nte' feres with whg voters
The Legislature will be prepared to act on the bank
question. From all parts ofthe State the cry s make
them resume specie payments forfeit their charters,
and appoint commissioners to settle up their affairs.
The session is an important one, and we shall en-
deayOr to give synopsis of all the proceedings.

scraps from the melodies therin contained We an
pend few of them, and congratulate the public that the
prevailing sentiment is far changed and tina, in
temperance is no longer tho rallyng cry ofa polite
party. The Times saws:
we can picture to the minds eye, the editor and
publisher OF the Couran, and the Arthl Dodger sitting
on of the benches in the log cabin at the corner Of
Irumbull aud Asy un streets, aud shouting the chorus
which we fad Oh the 18th page.
'HhrraI! hurrVh! for Harrison aud Tyler

o perhaps the 'Dodger' would open at the Goth page
and shout:
In all the States no door stands WIDER
llurah, hurrah, hurrah
To ask you IN to drink hard cider!
llurrah, hurrah, hurraI!
Or turning to the 25lh, with mug of of the stuff in
his hands, he would open the hard cider song" with
Come ye who, whatever beside hOr

Prime up in cup OF hard cider
And drink to old rppecanoe.
Then hoI for March 4'h foTty-One, boyq

The very essence oftemperance as understood by tho
COurant folks is to be found in these melodies The
literature Of tbs country received an impetus, as well as
temperance, IN lS4O. The la rIony Of numbers and
melody of song-whig song, may be found i'll the fol-
lowing, OIL page 80:
'Oh pray Master Farmer, just walk up this way,

nature--they were measures of emergency, sdop-
ted in the midst OF public calamity and TO be dis
continued with the necessity which caused them.-
As soon, therefore, as the capital and industry Of
the country had limo TO subside into their aceustou-
ed channelS these operations were relinqnished,
and now they have totally and hnally ceased"
In the meantime the bsnest was very great alike
to the Bank and to the country. To the Bank, be-
cause il got the advantage of large circulation OF
its notest got the premium Of its drafts from the
Sou.h-it got the funds I'm Europe without least rs
aud large collection Of its southern debts. What
is important still, the possession ofthese funds
abroai was the means of protecting and saving the
agent of the Bank, and, OF course, the Bank IL
sc from proslration. OF this the most decisive
evidence Is declaration made by the President OF
the Bank himself, IN letter TO Mes>ss. Bevan and
Humphreys, Of the 5th of February 1910, in which
he says: THE state OF the debt due by the Bank
to Messrs Humphreys s. Bi Idle, OF Liverpool, has
been for some time the subject of gteot anxiety.
These gentlemen have, with a zeal IN favor of the
Bank, for which our thanks are particularly due,
sustained Mr.. Jaudcn IN many periods Of Ais late
struggles. with the aid not merely with their funds,
but with all they could raise their credit, and
have enabled him TO meet his payments, rhen eni
fer eir assistance, he would not haze been able 10
ertrieaie himself"
Finally the operation was OF great not mere
y to the Bank out TO the whole country. The to-
tll prostraton OF all means and all credit in the
South at the tine placed the whole crops The mercy
OF the foreign purchaser The purchases made to pro-
vide bills for the Bank bised these foreign purcha-
sers TO give something more like the real value for
Southern produce-it made an actual difference in
favor OF the Southern States OF at least 20 or 25
mi!lions-whch gave them facilities IN the discharge
of their debts to the Northern States well TO
the Bank ITSELF
While these operations were in progress, | left
