 THE NEW POSrMASTEK.

Franc,s Granger we know. We know him to he a gentleman in manners, and man of fine talents. His capacities for the pos; which he has assumed, equal, if not superior any other mans, with whose history we are acquainted. He has always been po- pular with his immediate constituents, t of late.- Within two years his popularity has been on the de- cline, and it is ascrbed to his course on the subject of slavery. Mir. Granger has not been manly Tn his course upon this subject. He has and has not, mind of his own He has sinner aad outer man, upon this great question: He is an Abolitonist in theory, else his veracity is questionable. We care not what Gen. Harrison says about him, nor what Mr.Granger told him to say, whatever he may say at Wash nston in Canandaiga and Ontario counties, he said he was abolltionst. Who that lives in Ontario conn- county, N. York, does not know that Francis Gran ger told the Aboltonists that he would do anything for them, if elected to congress; we ask whot To be sure he member ot an anti-slasery society "but he was opposed to slavery, and would to any right thing for it's abolition. Ontario county had too many good and sensible men m the Abolition ranks to be careless of treatment to them with lnp- n,ty and it was with small surprise that Mir Gran
 ger took the stand he did in Congress the first term of his election lo that body. They remembered it upou his reelection, and threatening were the prospects that 'promises to do better" were abun- dant They trusted him again-his sins were almost as weighty as before, and had it not been for the cleo ton of General Harrison, Francis Granger would have closed up his political career till he had repent ed and done works meet for repentance.
 .sNow, in all this thing there has been double den
 ing, unworthy ot n gentleman oi Mr. Eranser pow
 CTS. It is to much like the course of Daniel Web ster. There is nothing in it like the bold deterni- cd stand of Thomas Morris. The latter puts his foot down-you find his impression. He leaves t eadur- inrly. Nothing foxy about Mir. Morris. His soul is upon his face. He is living epstle, to be- known nm, read of all men. Why could not Mr. Granger have so acted? How much it would have adde, to inc consolation he will need in dying hour!-how much honor it would give him in the eyes of the wicked even! How much joy it would have infused
 n,o many b,d heart within the limits of old Onta
 rio! o They would have embalmed him in their me- mories forever. Strange! Now, dislike, strong dis
 like, strong dislike lies buried up deep in the hearts of many of his political supporters not easily to be forgotten. The day of f,rgetfalness has passed A man actions are remembered henceforih upon this question: No man can successfully play the ''artul dodger." Eyes are upon him he thinks little oi.
 Men upon his trail who are battling Tor the law 1 of eternal rqht-ther hearts are frn--ther step sure. A false step and his political life cnds This is no chid's tkt is the voice of trut'-t IS the ut

Mn. GRAHGER.-In another column, publish a sweet morsel for the Southern Wings, which, we hope, they will roll nnler their tongues, and thank Fortune for. Mir. Granger, the Postmaster, has an Sinner and an outer m..n'' this subject of slavery say his quondam abolition friends. Perhaps, il woull have been better to say, that, like certain ethical philosophers, he believes in distinct dent ues--a sort of dual personally which sometimes he thinks separately and conirary, the one at times getting the better of the other and the actions of both depending very essentially upon the influence of ex ternal events.
 "Mr Granger" says the article ''is in theory all abJlitionist." We guessed as much but the difficult ty is to know what security this notion of theory will afford to the Sou,h Will it make him the friend ol Southern rights Will it be a barrier against the Introduction of incendiary publications through the mail Does the retaining of him in office show that John Tyler has scrupulous respect for the decacy of the planters ?
 Now we think that the slighest particle of defer ence for the sIave-hodng interest (prejudce if you please) demands that shall be kept in office who has entertained or does entertain heretca no- tions on this subject This fact should be made Tor topoliticians. They should be taught to know and to feel, that this point is eternal ob stace to Southern confidence.
 We don't want John Tyler to put democrat il the place of Mr. Granger. By no means. But wh, shoull we, or any men of any party, rest satisfied with person of doubtful character, when there ar, hundreds of as able honest Wings whp are orthodo' on the subject of slavery This is the question: ia neither unjust nsr partizan. It is Southcr question, one and indivisible.

 Once, when Randolph was in the city of B--- he was in the daily habit ofirequentns the book store one of the largest book sellers Tn the place. He made some purchases from him, and was very curious in looking over his hooks, &c. In the course of Ran dolph's visits he became very familiar with Mr., the bookseer, and they held long chat together, the orator of Roanoke showing off with great courtesy. Mir. -was quite pompous man, rather vain of his acquaintance with the lions who used to stop in his shop. Subsequently,, being in Washington with a fread, he espied Randolph advancing towards him, and told his friend that he would introduce him to the ssgreat man.'' His friend, however, knowing the waywardness of Randoph, declined. "Well," said Mir. -, 'sI am sorry you will not be introduced ratc.'' Up he walked, with outstretched hand, to the bye, how often your thoroushgoing Republican is full booded aristocrat in his private relatons) i'm medately threw his hands behind him as he could not ''dull his palm" in ther way and gazed searchngly into the the face of the astonshed bookseller "Oh o,!" sadhe, us if recolectng himsef ''you are Mir.

THE FATHER AGAINST THE SoN.-The Ad ,erliser is happyto discover an apparent discrean cy bsween tie opinions of the Father and the Son As usual the ciarge is supportedhy equiyocation.
 Tine Fathe spoke of the measures of the Admins tration to h adopted by the concurrence of the le rislative Department uf the Government, and in obe denoe toan invitation address his poll ical iriend, upon the ''startling measures which those in power were sndeavoring to fix upon the country" and which therefore were permitted to be known to the peo- ple, except by 'sominous indications" until congress assembled.
 The Son spoke of promises and pledges aheqdy broken expectations an hopes already disappointed
 Take chapter of them. The Wings abused Mir. Van Buren's administration for appointing members of congress to ofice-the Whig administration has done it extensvely-the Wings abused the adlnnis- traton for appointing the and relatives of ca- net members to of6ce-the Wings have appointed fathers, sons, brothers, almost annts and grandno- ,hers to ofice-the Wings promised that "proscrip- lion should be proscribed''-a more relentless pro- scription has never been induged n in states where pending elections did not render eit impolitc-the Wings promised that government officers should not be permitted interfere in elections-the Whig Ad. ministration has appointed whole army of fiaudu- lent ppe-layers to office. The Wings promised i'm. mediate reform in the Post Office Department the malls have never been rregular-the Wings pro- missed that the moral fleet ofa whig triumph would healing medicine, and produce an instantaneous revival of credit, confidence, security y-the times were never harder.
 These of the opinions not only to the father and son. but millions of freemen 1T this cnnniry, who just beginning to rub the dus of the L cabin ,arades and conventions out of the eyes. All the pledges which the administration couid break ap to this time, have been broken, au; tie 4 lvertisar thiaks it mighty fine feather in it cap, that hts broken others which it cannot to without the concurrence of Whig Congress.

NATIONAL BANK.-The following is an ex- tract from new popular treatise on banking and currency in the United States, by Mr. Appleton, of Boston
 "Another ground pui forward in favor of Ma tonal Bank, embraced by large portion of the com- munty, is its necessity as regulator ol the currea- cy. For this purpose, large, magnificent bank IS wanted, bank with capital of fifty or one hundred millions of dollars. To such bank there deci- ded objections. As a regulator of the currency il IS of doubtful utility. Banks issuing paper currency ale established by the authority of the different States. They furnish currency having no legal character but having conventional circulation all sing from it's convenience. These banks are good Or | bad institutions, according to their management. A bank which uls it's promises by payng Its notes on demand, readily and cheerfully, and furnishing cap tai those ~ho need il, is good; but bank which asks for credit, whilst il bellies it's own promises, sets an examllc injurious all sound morals and s a great evil. But the fault lies in the community which loerates such an abuse. Pubic opInion should prescribe the remedy It 1sa meant holy iact that there Is little security for the good conduct ol banks, but in the power of coei zion by law. It was legal coercion which brought the country banks of | New England to sense of tlcr duty Tn lS0S, when they had introduced system of evasion or delay or payment of their notes. IL the penalty ot two per cent month, enacted in lSlO which has insured their punctu;litv since that time. lt IS moi too much to say that it was the legal penalty of forfeiture of charter, and the belief that the law could not be changed which secured the resumption in New York | in lS3S IL is owing to the unreasonable relaxation ofthe laws in Pennsylvania, that PhIladel ha is still suffering unCer depreciated currency. When pub
 lie opinion reaxes this power of c"ercion, under the influence of the debtor portion ef the community, giv ing the hanks sort of immunity, il Is cert,inl, Il bad state of things. This is present state. But the evil will work its own cure. A National Bank has no direct power of coercion. It can only act ly moral force-the force of good example-upnn public opinion. With a correct public opinion, il is who'll, unleces sary."
 The universal belief is, that national bank will fnnsh remedy for all these present and prospective et,ls That such IS not the opinion of MrAppleton, may be by pernsa of this essay, which merits, think, the attentive consideration of every whe feels interest in the future welfare nf his cuuntiy. That a national bank effect any good while the currences of the several states in their present condition, is, we think, gross delusion; and we are glad to be sustained in that opinion by man of so much character and influence as Mir. Appleton, and we apprehend that such will be the conclusion of other minds if they will only look into the subject with the care which, frsm it's immense importance, il truly merits.-[Boston (Whg) Courier,
