QUESTIONS OF vERACITY.

TYLER vs EwISG.-Accordng to the Norfolk Her
aid declaration was recently made by Hon. FRAN
els Mallory, in an address delivered by him at Nam
semonG Court House. to the citizens there assem-
bled that President Tyler had authorized him 10
pronounce the statement of Mr.. Ewing Prospecting
the connection of the second Fiscal Bank Bill to
be false in every essential particular" Mr.. NJ.
further remarked, that full contradiction of the
statement would appear at the proper time. When
asked what time it would appear, he replied that
he did not himself know, but that it would appear
TYLER rs. Borrs.-The following paragraph is
extracted from Bottss speech of September III:
.'Mr Ii. admitted in its broadcast sense, that from
Mr.. Iylers trst entrance public life to the date
of his appointment TO the Harrisburg Convention,
every sentiment of his mind had been hostile to
bank but when he went there, had not the public
reason TO believe that his sentiments had undergone
a changei Certainly they had. But further than
that, Mr.. b. said he knew such to be the fact. He
had travelled with him on board steamboat, and
had heard HIM more than twenty times declare that
his opinion had changed to this eXtent-that a Ma
tonal Bank necessary TO the welfare and pros
perlty of the country, and that could not get on
without it,"
In relation to this the Madisonian, now under
stood to be the Executive organ, says $50 far
it undertakes to aver a fact in its latter clause,
we feel authorized to contradict peremptorily."
There are lies somewhere-thats certain.
REDFIELD, THE DEFAuLrER. - This man was
cashier of the Commercial Bank of New York, and
has been discovered in stealing at different times
$780, G0. Of course he was quite u respectable man.
and, according to wing papers, very accomplished
He was member, and an officer of the Rev. Dr.
Ferris's church, and yet has been stealing this mo-
ney for four years, and every six months took an
oath that the accounts of the bank as rendered to
the State, were correct. To clear himself of per-
jury, he eases his conscience by declaring that he
swore they were correct they stood upon the books
The commissioners thought otherwise, and had
him indicted for that crime
On finding himself discovered he made at
tempt to hush the matter and for that purpose got
notes from individuals the amount of $50 900,
which, with his bond signed BY his iather-in-law
and another individual, for s2OO00. he thought
would be sufficient. 1t is doubtful if the pos
any legal validity as they were fraudulently
obtained. AS he has escaped, the bank will prob
ably have to be the loser. The frequency of these
banking operations should think would open the
eyes of the people to their nquity. The tempta-
tons to dishonesty so great, and the punishment
of these great villains when discovered is so light in
comparison to their crime, that few of the officers
have the moral frmness to resist them. Almost
every week we hear of a similar transaction. If
the people would stop them, they must insist on
general resumption, which, when accomplished
would have a tendency to bring up all the re-
naming rogues once, and leave the honest Ones
if there any, to proceed honestly in their bust
ness.
