STATE BANK OF ILLINOIS.

The Missouri Republican states, upon what it
deems good authority, that the Bank has retired
about 500, 900 of its circulation, since the de-
probation of its paper. We see it also stated
that the bank has delivered and is now foreclos-
ing its mortgages upon real estate, which will
no doubt throw into the bank a very lage amount
of the outstanding circulation, which added to the
amount of the State Revenue, which is required
by Law to be paid in that paper, must in the
course of four or five months at most, leave but
a small amount of her paper in the hands Of the
people. 1t seems 10 us, therefore, that its notes
must appreciate soon, though they are now only
worth fifty or sixty cents in the dollar, and we
agree with the New Era in advising all who can
hold on TO it, not TO sacrifice nou at all events.

dress, from Mr.. d. G.. M. Parsons, to the cii-
zens of this county.

Our Locofoco compatriots talk big, and
affect 10 believe tina, they will sweep the
State in the Spring. To listen 10 their
boasifl racket, one would conclude thsl
not a Wing would be left to tell the tale
of the general ruin. THIS prominent
Wing and thai, this indomitable Wig
county and the other, are all to b. over
thrown and laid waste. 10 ibis hopeful
category, we have frs, old Hanover
where, even under The fascinating sm''es
of Col. Larkin White, Tofyism cannon
flourish. Next, we have AlbemaTie--the
land of Jeffcrson--w where the promising
grandson, having bariered away the grand
fathers reputation, would MAKE IKE
sacrifice Of his principles. oeh comes
old Essex. which, having had the mislor.
tune 10 g,ve birth to the greatest nuisance
linn ever nInoued the Commonwealth, is
to consummste her dishonor py endorsing
Tory principles. Then comes Sonthamp-
,on--a gallant and glorious county-no~
worthy represented by as true Il Wing
as aver fluttered. Then comes old Nan.
semond, and District No. 1, where Wing
gerry has fourished and will flourish, not.
withs,andiug the Navy Yard and all The
appliances Of corruption which may be
brought TO bear upon it, These, and va.
rious other counties are all to be swept
by the board this Spring, by the lrfeslstI-
bic tide of Locofocoism! What say the
Wings of these counties, and indeed OF
the whole State Are they prepared TO
surrender! Will they give up 10 despair,
because treachery has done its worst, and
they have been cheated out of the traits
of a hard won victory7 Is Locofocoism
less odious now than in the days Of Van
Burenl Does the public prosperity Hour
ish more now under lis sway, IN the prison
OF Capt. Tyler, than when the Little Ma
giciau ruled the roast? Are the people
m any better conditionl Are they less
oppressed with debt Is their currency
better. Are the morals Of the country
improved In word, is not the mongrrl
Locofocoism of the Tyler dynasty as de-
.estable, as corrnpting, as ru'nons ani
blightlny to the national hope, AS the gen.
uine, unadu.,eratsd article of the Benton
die &C. so, is II not equally the duty of
patriotism now. as then, to rally with All
its strength to the rescue OF our ,nst'in.
tons, to the preservation of the pubic
morals, to the restoration OF the national
prosperityl Whilst Locofocos bear sway,
and willis, Locofoco doctrines shape the
legislation of the country. we cannot ex
peci 10 extricaie the people from cmbsr.
rassment, and restore the Government to
purity and economy. Let the Wings,
then, rally in every county as OF yore-
They have to fight the battle over--We
know they have the nerve TO 90 It. Let
them grid on their armor, and bring forth
their strongest men, and throw away de.
spondency. The enemy rely not upon
their own merits-hut upon Wing apathy
for success. Disappoint them again, Us
YOU have disappointed them before, and
preserve the old Commonwealth from the
ascendancy Of the " Boston old Court
House" Locofocoism, which has been re.
Gently imported to teach us State Rights
and Dolitical morality.
