the vaults Of the bank, there left immense
piles of printed, pictured paper notes,
which did not represent silver or It's value,
but only drbts. On each pictured emblem
of that Indebtedness, proudly pcered
figured palace, complete in It's marble
proportions-the home of the immortal
credit system, and the throne of the mon
cy autocrat forever.
The scene now changes to the private
mansion of "the great linancicr," in one
of whose lofty rooms was shown the ton
OF silver. The fnancer had a son who
had sought and won the affections of one
of the most beautiful and accomplished
daughters OF his native state and city, and
she too, was the grand child Of one of the
generals OF the rcvolulion-one of the
lIIustrlous veterans who fought side by
side with Washington, and who, at his
death, had his honest name given to one
of the counties of the great state that shall
preserve his fame nyiolotc loreyer-Not
only were her affections gained, but the
rolh of the linancicr's son was pledged TO
her, to make her his own forever
The shine of the ton of silver was
dazzlng.-She was seduccd by the linan-
cler's son in the house of his father, and
when the damning fact came out although
even then the son was still willing, by
marriage, 10 repair the wrongs he had
done her, yet he was forbid by the fnan-
cicr to do this, and was suddenly sent
away to Europe where he still remains,
and the poor broken-heartcd girl, the most
| beautiful i'll a city renowned for beauty,
rich in family fame, but poor in wealth,
and now a bcggar in reputation, was
turned out of those refined and opulent
circles, where she had moved as Il star
of delight and brilliancy! In the mind
Of the hnancler, she was a protested
notc-a returned and unacccpted bill of
exchange, a dIshonorcd draft
Since that time the pangs OF bankrupt
cy, like an armed man in hot pursuit,
have ovcr,akcn the dwc!crs in the marble
palace of Mammon, who granted their
autocrat the ton of silver; and as sure as
God is just, there will yet be trbulation
and anguish in the domestic hall Of the
iron hearted fnancier.

As was anticipated, Mcleod has been acquii-
ed. The case was submitted to the Jury ataquar-
ter past o'clock on Tuesday afternoon the l2lh
inst and the result was a verdict Of mot guilty
the jury being out some thirty minutes only.
This result, the Albany Argus says, is what all
will concedc it should have been, under the facts
of the case as they have come before the public.
All have cause to rejoice, that whilst the majesty
of the law and the sovereignty Of the state have
been indicated and sustained in the trial of Me-
Lcod, in the face Intimidation and at the hazard
of collision with one Of the most powerful ofthc
European states, the result removes the great OBJ
stacle which has heretofore STOOD or been made to
stand, in the way of an ancablc adjustment OF
the national question growing out of the affair OF
the Caroline. And may we not hope, now that
the facts in relation to this crying outrage have
come out in judicial shape, and since the British
government have recognized and acknowledged
the act its own, that our jus, claim to rcdrcs,
will be pressed with vigor to an honorable and sa
tisiac,ary adjustment

Agricultural Meeting.

We invite the attention of the public, and par
ticu'ary that portion engaged in the farming bu-
sness, to the call in another column of meeting
to form county agricultural society. No atten-
ton bestowed upon this subject can Gc useless.
Experience has fully demonstrated in the eastern
states the usefulness and efficiency Of such socic-
ties in diIusing noble and healthy spirit of in
quiry and emulation among the farming commu-
nifty, and consequent very rapid improvement in
this nobest of human pursuits. "Ile who SOW
the ground with care and diligence acquires a
greater stock of religious merit than he could gain
by the REPETITION of ten thousand prayers is a
wise and exalted maxim of the Xandcycsta, and
has not lost its force in hcsc degenerate days; :"
and "he who causes two blades Of grass to grow
where but one grew before, is public bcnclac-
tor" is another maxim equally true, and not to
be forgotten by our farmers The spirit of inn
provcment must take root in our own county as
well as in the eastern states, or cur farmers will
ere long find themselves a century or so behind
the times ard the best ana surest way to accom-.
plish SO desirable an object seems to US to be by
the formation of such society.

cry made by him that paper is always
better than silver and gold, voted him an
amount of silver plate which weighed A

silver. 1t was no difference where the

from the pittances of widows and orphans,

honest industry. 1t was sllver--and in

Mcssrs. :. Penn, Jr. (the late able and fearless
editor of the Louisville Public Adycrtiscr,) and
'. p. Van Antwerp are about commencing the
publication Of a new paper in the city of st.
Louis, to be called the Nssoui Reporter The
politics of the Reporter will be democratic, Of
course, and with the knowledge we have Of the
ability and energy of the senior editor, we have
no hesitation to say that it will be one of the abest
champions Of democracy in the Union, and one
OF the very best newspapers in st. Louis, which
is saying much, considering the number of excel
lent papers already published in that city.
The first number of the Reporter will be issued
about the middle of December next. 1t will be
somewhat larger than the Washington Globe or
lncIligenccr and will be published on the follow
ing terms to wit: Daily paper, half yearly in
advance, $40 90; scmi-wcekly, in advance, So;
