| auired of the Peoples servants such du-
lies and such Illuminating sacrifices as
we have referred to Most assurcdly
they do not. And il SO; If the Wing
| Party, embracing as il does, q vast ma
iority Of the people, were alive 10 the
disgraceiul cnnduci Of the oilice-holdcrs
of The General Government, and were
induced to sustain Wing principles from
n conviction that their triumph would Sc
cure The ejcctmrnt from office Of these
vampires who were preying upon The very
llfc's blood of the nation by c0rrupting
the sources Of all powell, we say, it
was to get rid Of this incubus that prompt
ed the people To rally in support of WILL
LIAM HENRY HARRISON and JOHN Iy-
LEH, neither the former nor the latter
could, or can exhibit, any disposition TO
lalier in The great work of reform which
the PEOPLE have required at the hands
of a Whig administration And not
only do the people require the removal
of each and every Office holder in the
land who has brought his Office in con-
tact with the freedom Of elections--nnd
which one Of all has failed TO do so -
but they also require that their succ cessors
shall be honest and capable men, who
will not interfere at the polls or devote
their time to public meetings in any fu-
ture political contests, but who will faith
fully discharge the duties of their station,
and at all elections deposit silent vote for
such measures and in support of such
men, as they conscicnliously believe the
best interests Of the country demand.
Mr. TYLER and his advisers, have no
option in this matter. If they would moi
be reckless TO their principles, and call
down upon themselves the Justly merited
curses of all abused and indignant peo-
pie they may not, dare not ialter; but
are compelled fearlessly TO discharge
their duty by the removal of all obnox-
ious Loco Focos from Office, and repla-
cling them with honest Wings, property
presented to the Government by the only
recognized organs Of public opinion
In the removal of obnoxious public Off
GERS, and the appointment of faithful and
capable successors, the Wing admins
tra,lon are but the mere creatures OF the |
people; and it would be as reasonable
TO their political friends to abuse the APP
pointing power by using it ns the means
of cancellng personal obligations, as it
would be to retain obnoxious political op-
poncnts in Office from similar motives, or
from the absence Of that manly frmness
which is as absolutely necessary in po-
litcal as in private life, to command the
respect Of our fellow men. i

The EXTRA SESSION Of Congress,
commences on Monday next, 3lst inst, /,
and it is probable that by this time a
very large portion Of the members
have arrived at the seat Of G. Government.
We noticed by the Washington papers,
that number of members had arrived
several days ago, among them Hon. j.
l.. Tillinghast, from this State. Those
who arrive the earliest, we believe,
have the preference in the choice Of
seats in the House, which is n matter
of some consequence to such as are
desirous of being seen and heard in
public debates. 1t is to be hoped that
the present session will be more Of
business session than talking one.
The Hon. II. B. CRANsToN left here
on Monday afternoon, for New York,
in the steamer Massachusetts,, on his
way TO the Capitol.

The Health of Prince Albert is stated

Mr.. EDIToR | see by your last

formed in town very recently ard cal!ed
the Newport Lycenm. Now The Newport
Lyceum was organized, as is well known,
last fall, is still in existence and is TO
have a meeting very soon to choose
officers for the next season. IL seem.
to us very singular, quite an unpro-
ccdented proceeding for new society
thus to appropriate our name. II is
almost like "flchng from us our good
name" 1t is very like, Mr.. Editor,
any one setting up new paper next
door to you, called the Herald Of The
Times. Sir, The Newport Lyceun, born
last autumn, is not dead yet--ihc flow
ers of Spring are not blooming over its
grave--and this new Society, therefore.
IS new creation, not n resurrection.
and 1t has no right To rob us Of our
name, which has not come to il by in
heritance. We hope our fiends OF the
new Society will correct this error of
theirs which may misload some.

correspondents which we shall give next

on the following extract:
"Hape.you heard Of the late movements in
the Canal bank! The late teller, WHIP died
suddenly two or three weeks stree, had, it p
pears, a private understanding with a Mr..
Connaliy, (oae Of the big guns of New
Orleans,) that he would cash the checks OF
C., provided the latter would 'diyiG!e spoils'
with i'm. In this manner C. drew upwards
of $4,000 !! for a great part Of which, | sup

The above facts were privately commune
Gated to Us a Jay or two previous to The re-
eeption Of our correspondents letter. It is
supposed the teller committed suicide, and
a post-,aortem examination was talked of. The
bank, to indemnify itself as far as possible
had seized the effects Of Connally.
Are such acts as these cFimiral Ais there
any law against such conduct! What must

written ly Dumas? Are you aware that
Gaillardet summoned him before an en-
iightened AMI competent court, AMI that
there it was decided that the piece should
BE- considered as the joint production Of
Gai!lardet and Danas1 Such is, never
theless, the fact and we take pleasure in
giving You the information. because we are
persuaded that You will do all men Justice
regardless of personal feelings.
In addition to til:s, late Developments

his latest production, and one that none
