which Is known as the exponent Of Gov.
Reynolds, and organ Of the "Fayette
Clique" The editor, in his last number
declares Mr.. Calhoun ga democrat, good
and true"-and processes "to be one" who
would see nothing alarming in his election
to the Presidency. "Therc is no one in
whose cause" says the editor, 1--WE would
enlist more cordially, and with his colors
flying at our mast head, we should feel i'm.
bued with zeal like that which recovered
the holy sepulchre from Pagan hands"
This declaration, we take it, means more
than meets the eye. Gov. Reynolds is the
head and front of the "Fayette Clique
which was organized to advance his inter-
est. Mr.. Calhoun is the known personal
enemy of Col. Benton, and great rival Of
Mr.. Van Buren,. In a controversy last
year, between the Missouri Argus and
Democrat, each denounced the Democracy
of the other, when Mr. Benton decided the
question against the "Cique," by promul-
eating his doctrines through the Argus
Gov. Reynolds, not to be outdone, promo
ted the under current editor of the Demo-
crat to Judgeship, which appointment the
Argus severely denounced. Here the mat
ter rested for several months.
In the course of the summer, and during
the progress of the extra session, the Ar
gus gave out the necessity of county mee-
tings, for particular purpose, and the Ben
tonian resolutions were first promulgated
through Mr.. Houston, of Lincoln. This
produced considerable futter in the
Clique" and was the first public intimation
that Col. Benton had cut their acquaintance.
About three weeks ago, in letter to the
Missouri Reporter, Col. Benton expressed
so much satisfaction with a speech of Dr.
Linn, that he declared it unnecessary for
him to add single word; and in a Globe
editorial, evidently written by Benton, the
reelection of Linn is predicted, with much
smatter of mildness, amiabilty, &c.
1t is only necessary to add that Rey-
nolds was looking with wishful eye to
Linn's place, which Benton has thus placed
beyond his reach, and the demonstration in
favor of Calhoun, by the Democrat, is ex-
planned and accounted for.

pressive to many poor men, and shut them
out of Court"
By the following from the Era of later
date, il will be seen that Judge Wells de.
cison is against the Bankrupt Law. The
following are the points made by his Hon.
or, as he was understood in the delivery of
his opinion:
LIST. The Court assumes that the trainers
of the Constitution used the term "bank-
,upt' or bankruptcies" in technical and
restricted sense, having reference and look
ing TO the bankrupt system of Great Brit
ain, existing at that time; and therefore,
the power Of Congress to establish sum
form la,cs on the subject Of bankruptcies" is
limited in substance, to the system estab-
ished by the British Parliament, and con-
sequently, Congress has not the power to
nor for the discharge of debtor without
his first obtaining the assent of four-fifths,
or a majority Of his creditors.
I'd. That Congress has not the power to
impair the obligation of contracts; that the
prohibition to the States TO pass any law
impairing the obligation of contracts, af.
fords proof that the trainers of the Coasti-
tuition intended to extend the same inhibi-
ton to the Congress, erpreSS pO,0er TO pass
such laws not having been delegated.
The Court argues, that this law, provi-
ding for the discharge of debtor from his
debts, on his own voluntary application.
without the consent Of his creditors, or
majority of them, impairs the obligation of
contracts, and is therefore in contravention
of the Constitution of the United States,
and void.
AS this opinion was given in case Of
voluntary bankruptcy, the other branch OF
the law was not necessarily considered
Judge Wells, however, left but little doubt
as TO his opinion in cases of Involuntary
bankruptcy, provided for under this law
He was understood to say, in effect, that
Congress had the power under the Consti-
tuition to provide for cases of this kind, and
that this law, so far as it made provision
for involuntary Bankruptcy, is valid.
The foregoing are in substance, the
grounds of the decision of Judge Wells
Of course it is not as full and explicit as
contained in the opinion delivered by the
Judge himself.
In a few days the opinion will be before
the public; and as it is question of vital
Importance, both as affecting the powers OF
our government as we'll as other important
interests, may have occasion hereafter to
notice this decision-not for the purpose
of calling into question either the motives,
integrity, or legal abilities of the Court. but
for the purpose of considering question
growing out of this decision (f it be cor
rect) vitality affecting the powers and SOW
ereignty of the government of the United
States, in matters purely local to this gov
eminent, and in which the people of the
United States alone are interested.

"a wing administralion-with majorites in
both Houses Of Congress-has now been in
power something upwards of Is months, during
about 10 of which the legislative branch has
been in session.-Democrat.
This falsehood is in keeping with the
daily SANDERS of the democratic press. Is
it not known TO our neighbor that instead
of ten, the wing Congress has been in ses-
sion near thirteen months, thereby affording
the highest evidence of disposition to
make any and every sacrifice for the public
good.

DPWe intend to ask the editor of the
Paris Sentinel few plain questions, to
each of which, we expect an explicit
answer:
l. Do you not believe, and have you not
said, that our notices have been of great
importance to the success of your paper!
2. Are you not in the habit of publish
ing half sheet, for the purpose of swind-
ling your subscribers out of the cost of the
other hafl
8. How often did you write to the ST..
Louis Reporter, before the old fellow
agreed to chronicle the Sentinel as cable
and efficient"
4. Did you not request us, more than
once, to keep back that anecdotei
S. And have you not sent US word, by
more than one messenger, assuring us of
your thanks and gratitude for sparing you?

1--WE design to show the honest democrats Of

will also show that these democratic intrgues

Messrs. Conrad, Rives, and Smith OF Indiana.
are understood to have voted in the affirmative on
the first nomination, two Of whom changed their
vote in consequence of opposition to the Princi.
pie Of re nomination. Mr.. Mangum, it is said.
proposed to change his vote, but failed to com.
ply;-and Messrs. Archer, Barrow, and Berren
are generally in the negative. Mr.. Sturgeon, oil
Pennsylvania, has twice refused to vote in the
negative, and il compelled to vote, it would be
in the affirmative, for he has said so. And to
the nineteen nays, mustered mp by Messrs. Ben
ton and Linn, might or might not be added Mes.
srs. Bagby, Cuthbert, McRoberts, Wilcox and
Williams, which would not make a majority.
Mr.. BIRCH owes his rejection, therefore, to the
adrotncss of his enemies in calling up the nom.
inalion when a large number Of his friends were
out OF the Senate, and to few wings who op.
pose a large majority OF the nominations.
While on this subject, we may as we'll men,
ton that strong memorial, signed by very
large number Of our most respectable citizens, OF
both political parties, was forwarded to Wash
ington, which distinctly charges the rejection to
gross injustice in secret session, or an improper
influence" 1t further charges that if any state.
meuts were uttered against the private character
OF the nominee they were believed to be untrue.
and challenges Reconsideration of the whole
question with open DOORS" This memorial, we
presume, was presented in secret session, and
the result may never be made public.
To prevent misapprehension abroad, it is pe'~
haps our duty to slate that. a difference Of long
standing has existed between Col. Benton, Gov.
Miller, and Mr.. BIRCH, which has prevented any
personal intercourse foI several years. Both gen.
tlemen wrote letters to various counties in the
land district last spring, requesting public meet
ings of their partisans in opposition to his confr
in which, efforts were made. We
presume, OF character somewhat unusual. 10
