INTERESTING CORRESPONDENCE.

TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
New York. May !, ls4i.
In May last, on the Tippecanoe battle
ground, in presence Of some thirty-thou-
sand people, was intrusted by the sur
viying soldiers of that memorable field
with the flag that was in the midst and
thickest Of the strife, which was COM
handed 10 take to this commercial metro
polls, TO be displayed here, before our fel-
low-citizens, as living, speaking en-
blem Of the valor Of their old commander,
and Of the perils he had undergone.
When the political contest was over, lin
which his courage had been questioned, J
and the people had seated him as Presi-
dent in the White House at Washington,
| was also TO bear il there, and, in the
name Of his fellow-soldiers, request him
to deposite it among the honored trophies
Of the Republic. promised on that
ground to execute this commission, and
with an earnest conviction of coming sue
cess-that the FoRTv-Two FOUNDER Of the
Empire Safe should herald its arrival
there; but, in the midst Of scenes so
eventful as those of March, put off the
duty, in the hope of more quiet day,
when, now, alas! there is Me q,tiet efthe
Craze!
see, therefore, no way so proper TO
obey the orders of the brave men Of Tip
pecanoe as to lay this flag before you, the
successor. for whom were the dying in
functions of their iAustrious Chief, and
upon whom his office, and, | trust, his
spirit has fallen, with the request that you
win carry out the wish Of his compatriots
in arms by depositing it among the tro-
pixies of the Republic. l beg you, in
their name, most tenderly to cherish it.
Other flags of our countrymen have, no
doubt, been as calamity defended, and
were as glorious on land or ea;-but, while
they may have won but single ship, or
single field, this has the high honor of
winning whole States, of conquering en-
pires, indeed. An old Eagle like this,
borne by the pioneers of the wilderness,
that has added to the reign of the cross
the reign Of liberty and law, becomes a
holy emblem, with its m hoe signo Gin
ces upon it, CRYING out as from the spirit
of the past to the future, and which, as
the country becomes older and greater,
becomes to all posterity holier and dearer.
have the honor to be yours, respect
fully, JAMES BROOKS.

PENNSYLVANIA.

OF the late session Of the Legislature oil
this state, the Harrisburg Telegraph re-
marks that ii was the shortest annual ses-
sion for the last twenty-five years, and
that an unusual amount Of important bu-
siness was transacted. One hundred and
thirty-two acts and fifteen joint resolutions
were passed, including eight acts that
Governor Potter killed by his veto. One
OF these authorized the repayment to the
United States and Harrisburg Banks oi
some s350,000 borrowed from them by
Governor Riner for the repair Of the Ju-
nlata Canal, when suddenly destroyed by
ram; another was an act providing for the
election Of Gaaal Commissioners by the
legislature, finstead Of their appointment
by the Goyernor;) another relating to
hanks, and to provide for the better GO
vcmment thereof another making taxa
'Ole citizens of school districts competent
witnesses and jurors in cases where such
districts are parties; another to abolish the
Mayors Court Of Lancaster, DC. The
Chief bills which have become laws arc
the great Revenue and Relief bill; one to
provide for the appointment and election
ct Canal Commissioners, sc. Among
the resolutions is one requiring the Unit.
ca States Senators from that state to vote
Ior repeal of the sub-treasury.

REF0RM.-All accounts concur in
stating, that great and salutary change
has taken place in all the departments Of
government at Washington. Reform was
necessary, and ibis Administration was
put in power for the especial purpose Of
accomplishing the great work, in which
it is now engaged heart and soul. Under
the late Administration, il was not only
deemed no sin, but the broad turnpike to
higher advancement, for a clerk % be-
como the hero Of street debate, and de-
vote his time and talents TO the service of
men, who came into power by sacrifice
OF honor. Then, he who could write a
political essay for the newspapers, filed
with fulsome praise Of the matchless abb
lities and immaculate purity of the Admit
nis,raiion, was considered most accom-
plished public officer. But these things
have now changed. We have taken new
latitude and departure, and he who now
desires to gain and secure the confidence
Of the public. must first do his duty TO the
public. A clerk is not now appointed to
figure in the newspapers, or to brawl in
the streets-hei is appointed to do the du-
ties of his Office and the duties Of his Of
fee only. The motives Of the President
and his Cabinet Officers may be SANDER
ed, and their actions misrepresentcd; but
poised on their own reciitude of soul, and
supported by the confidence of the ma
lion, they will stand unframed by The yio-
lence of the storm. Register.

Ms. CALHOUN AND THE U. S. BANK.
In speech delivered by the Hon. John
G. Calhoun in the United States Senate,
in January, 1894, on the subject of the
removal of the deposites, he used the fol-
lowing language 49,.
81 might say with truth, that the Bank
owes as much to me as to any other indi-
vidual in the country; and might even
add that, had it not been for my efforts, it
would not have been chartered.
81 must content myself with saying,
that having been on the political stage
without interruption from that day to tbs
having been an attentive observer OF the
question Of the currency throughout the
whole period-that the Bank las been an
indispensable agent in the reformation of
specie payments; that without it the res
toration could not have been effected,
short of the utter prostration of all the
monied institutions Of the country, and an
entire prostration of bank paper; and that
it has not only restored specie payments,
but has given currency far more uni
form, between the extremes of the coun-
try, than was anticipated or even dream
ed of at the time of its creation"

JOHN TYLER.

The bearer Of the flag al die bsttle Of
Tippecanoe, alluded 10 in the above reply
Of the President, some OF our readers NAV
not recollect, was Ensign Upton, Ten
nesseean by birth, who started from home
with only his axe for a pairimony. and
who subsequently became Senator in
the Congress Of the United States, and
one Of the most distinguished men in In
diana. OF him the anecdole is narrated,
We have seen in the public journals,
where General Harrison is represented as
riding up in the heat Of the battle, inquir.
ing Of the young Upton, " Where is YOU
capiainl" dead! sir" "Your lieu
lenanti' dead! SIR "Your secont
lieutenant" "Dead. sir" "Your en-
sign!" "He stands before youi'' wher
Upton then stood, holding and defendin.
this very flag, but so covered with dir
and so hesmeared with blood that Gen
Harrison scarcely knew him. "Hold
on" said Harrison, " for moment long,
er; | will reinforce you;" and he rode Of
and led up there the company Of Capt
Robb; by which time, or soon after, O
the seveniy-fvc men under Capt. Spen
Ger, there were only ten or twelve left no
killed or wounded; in this company wa
