He came to the Presidency by the votes of the
Wings and by the death of General Harrison In
this he is not in fault.
C,urencu--In his public documents he has declared
himself in favor of plan of finance that should fur
nish national currency and facilitate exchange,
while performed the duty of safe-keeping and dis
bursting the public moneys.
He differed with the Wings as to the mode Of
doing ths,-they choosing United States Bank, and
he National Exchequer which united the Sub-Trea-
sury specie principle, with the faculty of producing
a national currency, thrown out in paying national
debts and obligations of the Exchequer. The Bank
with all its advantages, has proved corrupt and

The Exchcquer not liable to these objections,
and we consider it decided Improvement upon the
Bank. So the people think. In this the Executive
has sought to attain the end aimed at by the Wings
and the country and the Wings assailed him be-
cause they insist on great Bank, powerful enough
to control our monetary system and the Government
Itself In this we ground to censure the
President.
Ta,if-In December last the President, in his
annual Message, recommended discriminating Ia
riff so constructed to give protection TO American
industry in all its FORMS and raise sufficient rev.
enuc to sustain the credit and character of the Gov
eminent of the Union. In this, all agree that the
President was right.

10 use the words of Mr.. TrumbulI, that the Tariff

This may be sport for the Wings, but it is death to
the manufacturers. But this corrupt and proAlgate
Congress is destitute of true wisdom. They seem to

It is masifestly right that every subject should
stand upon its own merits and be acted separately
OF this the people do not complain
On the great subjects Of Currency and Tariff we
see no reason to blame the President. On the con-
trary, we approve his public acts relating to them:
.afny and Navy.-The President has recommended
that the Army and Navy should be sustained and in
vigorated to be able to protect our expanding
commerce and our extended country This the peo-
pie agree to as the right plan.
Congress has refused to carry out the Executive
recommendation, and has sought to reduce our
small Navy and our trifng Army on pretence OF
economy. The members of that body might have
set more patriotic example of saving public mo-
ney, by despatching the public business promptly,
by reducing their eight dollars per dhy to three
four and cutting down their travel fees to actual
cost.
Whatever motive Congress had, no impartial man
can doubt that the Executive recommendations

North Eastern BOUNDARY &c.-The President has
had the good fortune to adjust our difficulties with
Great Britain and secure US peace, while ne has
maintained the honor and dignity of the country
This most fortunate event. and alike creditabe to
two great nations.
While peace external is preserved, war upon the
Executive is proclaimed in Congress, which promises
the most disastrous consequences to the suffering peo-
pie of these United States We told that defeat
and degradation must fall one of them. Is this
right? The President and Congress the agents Of
the people, and bound to act conformity for the public
waal- If either Congress the President shall so
far forget their duty as TO employ their official powers
to assa each other, the sSsaant will be justly held
laithless to public duty.
What excu,e can be given after eight months

and settling the currency question The party in de-
fault will have account to settle at the APP
preaching elections.
The party that came into power to settle the cur
rency has not settled it, and has almost destroyed

basis of credit. This party pledged to sustain
credit and they have destroyed it to establish suf

The Veto of the Tariff bill has gained new honors

PASSAGE OF THE REVENUE BILL.

This bill was passed on Saturday evening, al
about half past seven o'clock. When 1t was
ascertained that there was tie, Mr.. Williams
threw his vote in the affirmative, as he prevl-
ously declared he would do in case it was re-
quired to secure the passage of the bill !; and
thus the anxious and breathess suspense which
for few moments prevailed was removed.
We copy the subjoined paragraphs from the
ALBANY ARGUS, one of the accredited organs OF
the great Democratic party, which surely indl-
Gates that this Treaty, though consummated by
this Administration and Immediately by Mr.
Webster, is not destined 10 be condemned on
partisan grounds. We told the Globe, and we
now reiterate it, that there will not be half
dozen journals found to follow up its assaults
on great patriotic act, which secures our peace
and preserves our honor:
THE TREATY-THE RATIFICATION
Yesterday we announced the welcome intelligence
that the Senate had ratified the treaty with England
by the very decisive vote of 50 ayes to noes
Though we are unacquainted with all the details of
this treaty we are convinced from the strong vote that
it must be highly honorable to our country. None
other could receive the constitutional majority OF two
thirds of the u S. Senate.
questions which have been at issue for 80 years. and
which thousands supposed would be settled only by
the sword. And now, these vexed matters are ad-
justed by Cancellation and compromise to the Deneht
and honor as we firmly believe, of both nations.
We have now every prospect of a permanent and
uninterrupted peace with England. This is the first
time in the course Of 25 years could make such
announcement. This must have the most cheering
effect on the business of our country. In TRUTH no.
thing could have happened more OPPORTUNITY to rees
tah
longer fear to make Investments. War, which so
soon dries up the fountains of credit, is no longer
probable. State stocks must feel the effects OF this
measure.
We again repeat we hail the ratification OF this
treaty as the harbinger of improved times. Matters
will mend steadily though it may be but slowly; 1t
is more important than all the tariffs that have been
proposed. Should Congress now adjust the tariff in
some shape or other SO that business men may have
permanence the present depression which seems to
weigh us down with torpor like death, would soon
pass away in the energies Of reviving health and
prosperity.
