THE REIGN OF FEDERAL WHO
gerry.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette "a whig paper,) holds
forth the following language:
"The currency is in as bad condi-
ton as it was during the last adminstra-
ton, and the revenue, ofcourse, in much
greater danger, no legal depository hav-
ing been provided for it. The scheme
which the President will propose at the
next session, it is thought, will be moth
ing better than the Sub.Treasury plan
in disguise. We shall see. In the mean
time he holds in his hands the purse and
the sword of the nation"
Here we have a most candid confes-
sion from one who was instrumental in
bringing about this state of things-One
who probably shouted as Justify as his
lungs would enable him last fall for
"Tippecanoe and Tyler too" This is
what the whjg reform amounts to. The
extraordinary session of Congress, called
together to legislate for stock.specula-
tors, has failed 10 improve the currency
has repealed the sub-treasury, and left
the revenue in much greater danger than
under the late administration. And for
all this they blame "Captain Tyler" Had
Congress cared more for the welfare oi
the country and been less subservient to
the will g. interest ofone man, they would
have prov ided substitute before they re.
pealed the Independent Treasury law,and
SO have avoided leaving the revenue in
the condition complained of. But such a
course was contrary to Mr.. Clay's plan
to head "Cuptain Tyler" and 1t was
therefore rejected by him, who would
rather the country should be- afflicted
with "war, pestilence and famine" "'than
that he should not rule supreme.
This state of affairs is brought upon
The people by their cOnfding too much
in federal whig promises. Voters, be
ware how you trust to those who have
thus betrayed you.

The Cincinnati Gazette gives the fol-
lowing as "a noble compliment"
"Tho citizens of Woodford co. Ken
lucky, the Louisville Journal states, have
purchased a farm of 800 acres, worth
$4,000, on which the Hon. J. j. Crit.
tenden was born, aud presented it to
him."
Mr.. Crittenden, It will be recollected,
when he resigned his Office of Attorney
General, sent to the President such a
letter of resignation as might be eSpoc-
ted from man of honor. Hence, prob
ably, this compliment. Will any of MIR.
Ewing's friends in Ohio pay him like
compliment for his disclosure of confden-
tial Cabinet conversation?

THE VETO.

The Ripley Telegraph, in answer to
our article of last week, asserts that "the
people--an unprecedented majority of
tho people; decided in favor of a Bank" :"
To prove that this was not the case, we
have within a few weeks past referred
10 the refusal of Gen. Harrison's Commit
tee to let his opinions on the subject OF a
Bank be known; and to the letter Of Mr..
Ewing denying that the Bank question
was in issue. To this evidence we may
add that Gen. Harrison had said that he
believed National Bank unconstituion.
al, and that Mr.. Tyler was known to have
always been Of the same opinion, and
that his formerly expressed opinions
were referred to as being those that he
still entertained. Here is our evidence
proof positive--in opposition to the
Telegraph's naked assertions, unsubstan-
tlateu Dy any IactS.
The Telegraph says that the people
elected a majority of Representatives in
favor Of Bank. The. passage of the
Bank bill proves that a majority of the
Representatives were in favor of Bank /;
butit does not prove that they SO avOwed
themselvns before the election. On the
contrary, it is we'll known that the whg
candidates for Congress, ike Harrison
and Tyler, refrained as much as possible
from avowing their opinions or the meas
ares they designed to carry into effect;
and that they invented the most absurd
and ridiculous bumbuggery to divert the

ANOTHER ATRoCIoUs INvAsIoN OF
AMERICAN Soil BY THE Cur THROAT
BRITISH SoLDIERY.-By a letter from
Alburgh, we learn that another atrocious
invasion Of our territory has been perpe-
tratvd by our amiabo neighbors, tho Brit
ish. On Sunday night last, a party of
twelve British soldiers, fully armed,
crossed over into Alburgh, VT, from
Canada in three wagons. They then
proceeded 10 the house Of Mr.. Brown,
tchich is situated four miles this side of
the tinsS, who is a brother.in.law Of Col.
Grogan, one of the political refugees of
1888, aud who has resided upon this side
ever since. This was about midnight.
The brave band of British midnight as.
sassins then steathly entered the house
with bayonets fixed. A portion of them
proceeded to the bedroom Of Mr.. and
Mrs Brown, and with bayonets at their
throats threatened them with instant
death in case they made the least noise.
The others went to the bed where Col,
Grogan was sleeping, seized, gagged and
bound him hand and foot, thrust bayo-
net through his leg, another into his
side, and in this horrible state, nearly
destitute Of clothing he was hurried into
a wagon and driven off into Capada,-
These are the circumstances Of this in.
Gernal affair, from a source entitled to
the fullest confidence.
Col. Grogan is an American, but for a
few years preceding the outbreak Of
1887, he resided on Caldwell's Manor
some two or three miles from Alburgh
on the Canada side. An enthusiastic
Republican, he early in the contest be
came an object Of suspicion and hatr eC
to the loyalist cut throats Of Canada. Ii
the winter Of 1898, the British soldiery
surrounded his house, drove his HELPLESS
wife and children to this side Of the lines
on foot, through the inclemency Of
! Canadian winter, burned his house, an,

plundered and laid waste his property TO
the amonnt of upwards Of $4,000. They
will now complete their vengeance by
numbering him on the testimony of some
perlured scoundrels, such as British gold
never fails TO procure,
The people now have some OF the
fruits OF MIR. Webster's trucking subser-
viency TO English insolence. The mur-
derer Mcleod, who boasted that he as.
sisted to massacre unarmed American
citizens, came voluntarily into the State
against whose peace and dignity the
alrocious crime was committed, and
boasted Of his participation in it. He
was arrested like any other criminal,
and ordered 10 trial before the State
courts. The British Minister demanded
his release. Mr.. Webster, our federal
British Secretary of State, is very sorry
his power canno: reach the case. If the
matter was left to him, he said he would
take the greatest pleasure in surrender

canton Of his jailer rendered any such
report utterly without foundation. In the

keeper of the prison that he could not be
trusted with razor, and that none ofthe
prisoners were ever allowed 10 use them.
His relations are most respectable, his

LATEST FROM CElNA.

Loss OF BARK FLoRIDA.-The Bark
Florida, from Canton, with a valuable
cargo of teas, silks, silver, china ware,
&c. went ashore on the night Of the 2 lst
inst. On the Jersey Coast, near Absscom
Beech. The vessel and cargo will prove
nearly total loss. The cargo was val
ued at about 100000, which is mostly
insured.
The Florida is believed to be the la
test vessel from China. One OF the crew
who had conversed with a gentleman Of
Philadelphia, stated that the British Gov.

from the Chinese Government, and in the
event Of a refusal he was to destroy the

CERTAIN.

On Tuesday last large number Of
persons arrived at Utica, N. Y, from
Buffalo and the frontier, prepared to tes-
tify at tho trial of Mcleod. Among
those are several men who assert posi-.
lively that they saw Mcleod actively en-
gagged in the Caroline outrage, and that
he is the murderer OF Durfee. If they
will swear to this on the trial, the prs.
cner will certainly be convicted, and
war will be inevitable, unless Great GBrit-
ain wholly foregoes her boasting threat.
The latter contingency is by no means
probable, and we must therefore now
make ready for the contest, or prepare
ourselves to pardon and surrender tho
convicted murderer. Which shall we
do?
Much dissatisfaction prevailed among
the numerous Witnesses at Utica, under
belief that the trial would bo postponed
for the term. But it is now understood
that the case will be called up in few
days.
General ThelIer, of patriot Romory, is
now in Utica, with DR.. Mckenzie. The
latter is excrting himself to the utmost
to procure McLeod's conviction.
