RICHMOND ENQUIRER.
We pause for a reply.

" One lrord to the' Richmond Enquirer -
As to its patriarchaladvice to the Madsonian, ''to
cultivate little more dignity in its vocation,
we would remind the anxious Enquirer, that
example goes before pTecept and if we have
offended in any wise on the score of i" dignity"
it must be from following its own example.
another pord 10 fhen Richmond Enquirer,
. We do not exactly understand its paragraph
Does il mean to say, that Mr.. SPENCER did ori-
ginate" the Bank scheme based upon the pub
lie land proceeds" Perhaps the Enquirer might
find solution to the difficulty in which it has
involved itself, touching the origin of the land
scheme" by consulting the Message of Presi-
dent Tyler to Congress. We will favor the En-
quirer with passage:
With the adoption of financial agency of sa-
tisactory character, the hope may be INDUCED that
the country may once more return to of pros
perity. Measures auxiliary thereto, and, in some
measure, inseparably connected with its success, will
doubtless claim the attention of Congress. Among
such, distribution Of the proceeds Of The sales Of the
public lands propided such distribution does not force
upon Congress the necessity Of imposing upon COM
merce hedrer burdens than those contemplated BY the
act Of 1883 lrouid act efficient remedial nea-
sure BY being brought directly in aid Of the States"
Perhaps TINS passage may not entirely solve
the difficulty we therefore give another little
more germaine to the purpose, from the same
authority:
Whether such distribution should be made directly
10 the States in the proceeds Of the Sales of the pub
lie iands or in the form Of profits by pirfue Of the
operations Of any fiscal agency haring these proceeds
as basis, should such measure be contemplated By
Congress, icould nell deserve its consideration"
Findlty.-One question TO the Enquirerl
Does it mean, by assailing Mr.. SPENCER, to
support the administration Of John Tyler, or
not? 1--WE will cheerfully publish" its ode

THE BANKS OF NEW JERSEY.

The Legislature of New Jersey has given solemn
warning to the chartered libertines," to put their
house in order. We hope the Legislatures in the
rest of the sixteen eighteen non-resumption States
will do likewise
Charters-A bill has passed to second reading
in the ~ J. Legislature, requiring all banks and com
panes to the redemption of their notes in spe
Gle before the LIST Of July, forfeit their charters"
There will, no doubt, be great outcry among the
stickers for "vested rights" when the day of re-
dempton" comes But it will be very difficult to con-
vince the public that these banks have any
other vested rights" but those by which the people
have been most grossly defrauded-" rights" Of which
il is high time to divest them.

From The Matches Free Trader.

Ma. TYLER AND Ma. CLAY.--The following beau
tful specimen of charity and decency extract from
Mr.. Cays special organ, the darlington InteHgencer.
II is almost equal to the rawlings of certain vulgar jour
nails in this State. If this extract is not direct at
tempt to stimulate to mob law and acts Of violence
we must misconceive its spirit.
If an indignant, an outraged and betrayed con-
sttuency were in moment Of iIrepressible wrath to
rise up and cast him headlong from the he has SO
viely polluted, il might be palliated if excused,
by an impartial historian who loved liberty and his
country more than place and power If God.drectcd
thundebot were to strike and annihilae the traitor
all would say that Heapen is just!"
The above is similar to the language used by
Washington's enemies when he refused to
plunge the country into war on account of
France. Notwithstanding this specimen of the
generous conduct Of Mr.. Clay's presses, they
are Mortified at the thought that President Ty-
ler's friends should defend him And the de-
fence Of the President they denominate wanton
attacks on Mr.. Clay

THE SAVANNAH REPUBLICANS
CREED AND SCHOOL.

The Savannah Republican, of the 18th No
vember, IN a long and very able dissertation on
conduct and schools, gives US the following
creed of his own school, as well as the reasons
for his faith.
We despse and loathe the whole CONSISTENT
CY SCHOOL-fist, because il is impossible for any
upright and honest man to be consistent with his pre-
viously expressed opinions for series Of years if he
improves at all; and because il is sheer humbuggery
and imposture to pretend TO what only belongs the
attributes ofth Deity, and secondly because this
seeking after consistency berays absurd reverence
for the names Of things instead of the things them
selves"
We profess to be wholly unacquainted even
with the rudiments of the Republicans ANTI
CONSISTENCY School, unless it be type of that
school which was shut up in Rhode Island in
August, 1885, during congressional election,
and described by the venerable exPresident Ad-
ans, as being "a base compound Of Hartford
Convention Federalism and royal arch masonry,
rotten with the corruption of both its elements"
whose disciples he described Ito have no ho-
nest principle to keep them togelher-their only
cement "a sympathy Of hatred TO erery man of
purer principle than themselves"
If this be the school in which the Republican
learnt and now breaches, its parapatetic philoso-
ply, we think the schoolmaster had better stay
at home than venture " abroad" We should not
wonder if this were he same school to which
the Albany Epening Journal bore his satchel-
"a Bank milestone round his neck for ten years."
but on the 18th Of November, repudiated his
satchel, aud renounced his philosophy and his
school.
His remuneration may be found in another CO.
lumn, under the head of "T'he advantage of
position" If our conjecture be true, the Re-
publican has lost at least one of its pupils and
it is a singular coincidence, that he cut the
"School" the very same day on which the Re
publican proclaimed its creed!

The Niceties Of Language.-A Frenchman once
established the fact that the word at" was in English
a negative He offered to sell party 100 bales of
cotton, and the purchaser only wanted half the
lot, so bales So after little further talk the pur-
chaser left the seller, simply saying that he "wouId
not take it at ALL" The seller did not hear the word
"at' distinctly, and so he concluded after being left
alone, to sell the half and sent the round to the
purchaser accordingly, who in reply told him he
would not take ii. This brought back rebuke--
"You said, sair you would not take it all suppose,
therefore, sell de half as first offered by you sar"
The reply to this was, II told you, sir, | would not
take il at all, and refer you to Mr. , who
heard me" "Then, sair, responded the Frenchman,
"this English language is very curious; study it
very much, and this is the first time find the word
at is Negative"

DEATH.
HUDSON.

How many have been called, during the past year,
to feel the full force of the following beautiful and sp
propriate thoughts on Death
Death sends his arrows after US ali. Now and then
he gives us gancing wound, and it heals and we
wrap ourselves up in the fond beefthat shall long
go untouched again by his weapons Of assault. We
almost feel inclined 20 look at our cicairzed wounds
and console ourselves with the thought that we are
safe from any further harm till he gives us his final
blow. Even the venerable patriarch who toters and
trembes he PAGES along the path way Of existence
seldom, if ever realizes how near he is TO the crum
bling verge of his last step. There is but hairs
breadth between time and eternity our last breath
that's ALL and hence we can hardly be said 10 know
even when we arrive at that eint line in the shadow
and valley of death. A benignant God, while he has
cast all The other lights of information across our
way, seems in kindness TO keep this moment Of time
hidden from u.s. through the iyeong road of even an
hoary headed existence. Sentinel

The wretched and miserable policy of leaving four
hfths Of the Locofo cos in possession Of influential
and lucrative Offices after twelve years Of battle and
OF strife, was ungenerous, unwse, and unjust to
those who elevated Mr.. Tyler to undeserved honors
and power, that the Wings were Indignant were
paralyzed.- Cdtskiu Messenger.
Il Is to be hoped they will take dose Of wis
dom and grow better soon. AT least they will
not have the hardihood hereafter to suppose that,
actuated by fear, the President will send out
commissions to those engaged in hanging and
burning him in efhgy.

We hope that Mr., Tyler may recur to the prnci-
Piles of his early life which he has never avowejy de-
serted, and show himself their decided and unAnch-
ing supporter. By SO doing he may en,itle himself
TO be ranked with Jefferson and Jackson among the
savours of his country and defenders Of its Consttu
ton ennsylranian.

believe the President is an apostate."

THE ADVANTAGE OF POSITION

The advantage Of position, so elepafed as TO
overlook the battle ground-no matter how dis
lant-appears 10 be highly necessary in order 10
foresee the result of the conflict Had some OF
the Wing presses Of New York been stationed
at New Orleans, they could have aided quite as
eflectualy in their late elections, and given much
earlier as well as correcter information as to Its
results.
che ciairpoyance of the NeU Orleans Bee,
wh'ch arpears to have seen, not only through
the curvature or the eauh, but through the fogs
OF the future, foreshadowsd and telegraphed the
results Of the battle at the m1ith of the Misss-
sippi, while the mouth Of the Hudson only stood
agape for the news. See what the BE- saw, as
early at least as the 9th of November and bore
upon its nimbe wings as early as the 9th:
"We really believe (says the BEE) that if the Loco.
focos carry New York; result but TOO probable, mau-
gre the anticpafions our friend ofMe Courier and
Enquirer--their organ will unfold the Van Buren,
banner, Sub-treasury and all IL we are mistaken,
we shall cheerfuly acknowledge ignorance Of Del
phc gifts, and confess unskilfulness in reading
political auguries."
Had the Wing papers Of New York, like
their contemporary at New Orleans, INDUCED a
little more in 'auguries" and less in "anticipa-
TONS they would have been better prepared at
least for the result, if they could not have pre-
vented it, Now they can very readily account
for what they could not foresee; though when
we have such pentent confessions as the follow
ing, (from the Albany Evening Journal Of the
18th Now we little surprised that it should
be thought necessary TO wal. for results in order
to account for them
"We were openly opposed to the Extra Session of
Congress, and as openly opposed to the movement in
favor of a Bank The Wtig party has struggled for
ten years NTH Bank Maidstone TO lis neck We
hare abored hard TO cut loose stuck to us like
poisoned shirt. For resolved 10 carry
this load no farther. Those who have "stomachs for
the fight" may go laundering till the sky falls, il
they choose, but this lark not to be caught again
a Bank trap"
We are glad to see the Evening Journal thus
at once disburden its conscience and its "neck -
and trust that the whole Bank party have dis
covered at last, that the ''mill-stone" can't save
them from drowning, any better than a straw
