but very little favour in tho circles of the Federal
Metropolis Both parties are said 10 repudiato il.
The Globe is out in II aboured article against il.
on the ground that it is a Government Bank. VIVA,
an objection to come from that quarter! But the
hostility of that paper-the organ Of TIE Locos
Proper-is significant Whilst b air assails il in

all the denominations Of which he has either been tho
author or advocate, IFS of no consequence to consider

ana his men have no idea Of raying under the
"Cannns"-Hnd that the Captain, in husgins tho
fond hope to his bosom, has been labourin. under

Tyler and his new associates, and with which they
have nothing to do.
So far, the "T' tium Quid'' are they only who
have declared themselves in favor OF it. They have
heretofore been very sGueamish, that nothing
could be devised, which steeIed clear fIher multi
