From the Old School Republican
LETTERS OF GOV. SHANNON AND JUDGE
KING.

II will be recoIected that the Convention Of the
friends Of the Administration directed the State Cen
trail Committee 10 address letters of inquiry to the
several candidates for Governor. Such letters were
prepared and forwarded That Of Gov. Corw in
sent to Tfn, and unfortunately the person by whom
it sent, forgot 10 deliver il. Answers TO the
others received in due time, and would have
been published had it not been considered injus-
tce to Gov. Corwin, who had no opportunity to
ply. As the election is over deem it but
act of justice to publish the replies of Gov Shannon
and Judge King.
We precede these answers by the questions sever
ally addressed them;
Do you hold Bank Of he United States to be
constitutional or expedent'
Do you agree with Gen. Harrison in the opinion
that Congress possesses no power to charter Bank
for the purpose of facilitating the operations OF
merce?
During the campaign Of 1910, while candidate for
Governor, were you not much among the people at
mass meetings and political discussions; and was
| Bank of the United States then under question
before the people in such form that the then
of the Wing party with justice BE- considered a
decision OF the people in favor OF Bank,
Do you consider proiecre tariff distinguished
| from revenue tariff with incidental protection, as
equal just and expedient'
DO you deem IT proper for Congress, in adopting
tariff TO connect with it in the same act clause
for the distribution Of the proceeds of the public
lands?
Can the proceeds of the public lands, in your es-
tlmaton, be legally, or with proprlety distributed
long as The nation Is in debt economical admin
| istraton of the Government requires revenue
ceedng 20 per cent. upon imports;
Do you believe 1t competent for Congress 10 in
teriere with slavery in the saveholding States
Was lot the recent conduct Of the House of Rep
resentatves OF the United States, in receiving re-
Iort and adopting resolution condemning the Pre-
sident without hearing, an insult to the nation in
the person of its Chief Magistrate, an assault upon
civil liberty an attempt the part of the accusers
to try The accused and illegal unprecedented unjust
and oppressive, toward the President as an Ameri-
can citizen?
Do you believe it constitutional proper for
minority of an Ohio Legislature to secede or resign,
and thus leave that body without quorum:
JOHN McELNAIN,
Chairman.

ANOTHER INTRIGUE ON FOOT.

Ii has seen intimated to us, and from source
that induces US to believe il implicitly, thai some
half dozen ultra Federal presses have concerted
and agreed up a Simultaneous attack (to take
place on the assembling Of Congress) on one or
Two distinguished Republican Wing, or anti
Clay members Of Congress. The object Is TO
deter some twenty or thirty others (from whom
the retired Cabinet conceal the fact that the
President, had proposed 10 declare his inten-
ton 10 retire from public life IN lSio,)
from doing justice to the Chief Magistrate
The selected victims are 10 be overwhelmed,
annihilated, if possible, by every species OF
rbaldy and abuse This, they suppose, will
prevent the apprehended di.union OF The party
We shall see.

A NEW MOVE.

We learn from the Fayette Times Of Saturday last,
that at great democratic meeting in that place on the
Monday previous, Col. Benton was formally nomi-
mated for the Presidency in ls44. Gov REYNOLDS
who had been clnseted with Benton at Jefferson for
several DAYS, travelled lifty-fve miles on horseback
for the purpose of being at the meetingwas present
when the resolution offered and adopted-and as
further evidence of the official character Of the pro-
ceedings We will mention that DIR. Lowry, the Pre-
sdent Of our Bank, was the advocate and author Of
the resolution. This move is new TO us-needs ex-
planaton--c internal evidence Of bad faith to
Van Buren--but in the end will probably not creae
great deal Of mischief. OF course our neighbor
will announce in his next paper that Col Benton was
ignorant of the whole proceeding, and desired nc
thing of the sort This will be due to the conssten
cy Of his great leader whose significant and truthful
motto runs thus" Every thing for the cause, NO
THING for MEN"
The daily Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1841-1845, 1842-11-30
THE MATTER SOLVED.

Our readers emember that we have frequent
" charged the Globe and Mr.. Benton with a
design to divide the Democratic party. A, the
time the Globe was limiting that the Admins
tration was attempting TO build up "a third
party" we very well knew that the Globe itself,
and its clique of ultras, were striving to found
such party themselves. The subjoihed item
solves the matter. Mr.. Benton intends to pu,
the electoral vote Of Missouri in his own pocket!
