The Boston Courier, the most able, respectable and manly of the northern federal papers, scouts the idea of calling Mir. Cay's bank ''compromise,' "com- promise, as unspeakably ridiculous and dishonest as ii Is ridiculous. The editor says, If Mir. Tyler tans the constitutional sc-rl-a, -eh i'u ss so or ten avowed, he cannot sIgn the bill, without forfeit ing the respect of every man of common in the country, ,"-and yet we constantly hear from whigs around us, that is his d,ay to sign the bill We amazed that any many in the country who thought Mir. Tyler worthy of his vote for Vice President, could expect him President basey to sell his prn cpes to his party, and to backen his soul wth per jury. Oh, but say these people, he has no business with principles-he is the whIg President and he bound to carry out whg ncples-they add too, that he eecfsd by the people for the very purpose of signing bank bill. This last assertion is atro- cious ialsehood. We repeat that BANK was where made the issue in his election Both "Tip and Ty" were dsfsnded, wherever there were democrats, against the " calumny" Gas it was caled) of bank ism. Mir. Tyler put on the ticket to draw to it aati-bdnk votes. The plan successful and these cunning politicians around with the bold vowal, that Tn the success ot Tip and y the peo- pie have decided for national bank.
 This double fraud upon the American people, is now, thank God in fair way of meeting its reward. John Tyler, intended by the Harrisburg Convention to be the tool of party, will, trust, become the ayenger of the public wrongs, and instead of being the instrument of political vainy stands ready to reverse this snap Bank judgment
 If he does, the whig managers will have nothing to complain of. They knew John TyIer's principles when they took him up-their only mistake was tha, they did allow for the uncertainties of life in their grand calculaton or if they did, that they did no, correctly estimate the character sf tho Virginia Vice President. They fairly caught in ,her own trap.

From the NeWbuTypG WatchtOWeT. ShakeTSm.-Mr. Carter, d renomcing shaker, Yi- sited this place few weeks since, and gave two or three lectures on shakerism, and sung come twenty songs, danced, exposed Mir. Mier's theory, and did several other things for the amusement of his au- dience.
 The shakers creed is a very curious They believe m one God, and persons in the Godhead male and female, or Father and Mother-caed Power and Wisdom
 They believe that Adam was the Father of the Old CTeatlon and Eve was the MotheT-both being crea- ted after the image of God and that Christ IS the Father of the new Creation, and Ann Lee the Mother and that the Millennium commenced with the ap- pearance of Ann Lee earth. They believe in.the immortality of animals as well as oi men. They say that John horses in the world of spirits, as recorded in Revelation. They believe that all the ugly and venomous animals on earth are symbocal of the evil spirits that inhabil the lower regions of the invisible world and that all the beautiful creatures, such birds with gorgeous pumage, are symbocal of the good spirits in the mansions of bliss
 They believe that the souls of shakers in their tran ces and visions, really visit the heavenly world. The lancet has been applied to them, and their flesh has been sacrificed, while in this state, without produ- cing particle of blood. One person who visited the land of spirits in trance, all the patriarchs and kings of olden time; saw King David travelling, and Solomon on snow-white horse; saw Christ and all the Apostles.
 Their songs are curious affairs. We annex spec linen :-
 "I am exceeding thank
 l am exceeding thank
 am led-I am led.
 By the spirit for to seek,
 By the spirit for to seek,
 This way to the Lord" Here is another chant, very similar =
 70! we've come for to go,
 O! we've for to go,
 For to hod-for to hold
 Sweet communion with the Lord,
 Sweet communion with the Lord,
 With the spir-it of the Lord 70
