THE EXCHEQUER PLAN.

Aside from the REIMBURSEMENT of the Tariff, there
is question which more imperously demands the
immediate attention of the peoples representatives,
than the regulation Of the currency and the adoption
of suitable safeguards for the safe custody of the
public For the last ten years the currency
has been subjected to wild experiments, and intense
and ruinous agitation by partisan demagogues. The
business Of the country has suffered long and deeply.
The time has arrived when the policy in relation to
the currency should be settled AT least an attempt
should at all events be made. For our representa-
tves to fail in their efforts to make satisfactory
arrangement of the currency would be unfortunate
but to fail to attempt it would be inexcusable The
plan of Mr. Tallmadge meets the appreciation of a
large portion of the Wing press Let Congress, if
it devise no better, adopt this plan and we have
no doubt they will meet the expectations and the APP
probation of their constituents. Immediate action
is demanded by the people. Fifteen weeks of the
session has already passed and the great questions of
the Tariff and the Currency have not been called up
for action in either House of Congress- The people
are already weary of this delay We hope our rep
resentatves will give early and favorable response
to the anxious and repeated inquiry "Will Congress
do any thing this session for the Tariff and the Cur
rencyf

THE CREUI r. CASE

The letter of Mr.. Webster, on this subject, to Mr..
Everett inserted in another part of this paper will
be read with pride and interest by every in whose
bosom beats American heart. 1t is decidedly one
of the sblest and most perfect State papers we have
ever perused. 1t takes the right ground, and under
the food of light which flows from his pen, his posi-
ton stands out as firmly and boldly to the view as
the mountain that towers highest above the plain
and it will be sustained by Government every
hazard.-Rategh Star

From The Boston Mercantile Journal.

We glad to see the attention of the public di-
rected to the Importance of selecting for public officers
men of sound moral principles well as talent and
capacity. By neglecting this rule, which strictly
adhered to by ancestors have posed ourselves
to many evils. The extracts below will illustrate the
feeling this subject, which beginning TO be deve
loped in the West:
4 r The Chicago Democrat in one respect, has
adopted course which has our hearty appreciation
1t insists that its party should select its candidates
for Office, men of good moral character. Strange
may appear, the Democrat has the best for
urging this policy. II is due to its party, to the
State, and may we'll say, it is due to young
and rising city, that the individuals who sent here
act for the people, should be of "pure hearts
and clean hands" The exhibitions which were pre-
sented last winter in city, disgraceful and
dsgus,ing 1t ems in if men forgot
that they had families and regulations sustain and
gave themselves up to low and depraved passion
Although we have before advertcd to this matter
have felt pleasure in noticing the remarks alluded
to in the Democrat. We hope the editor will con-
tinue them They are worthy the attention of consi-
derate men Of all parties. -Sangamo Journal
The preceding remark has our hearty cooperation.
1t is applicable alike to both parties and trust will
enter into Their consideration in the future selection of
candidates. AS general principle State has aught
TO fear-we not which party has the ascendency
whose public servants are honest and upright men.
But when their law makers large portion of them
are addicted to intemperance, gambling, and similar
vices it is useless TO expect at their hands sound and
wholesome legislation. AS well might we expect the
Ethiopian to change his color the Leopard His spots
as that such men would prove to be safe and trust
worthy guardians of the public veal.
1t is time that the people required at the hands of
their public moral well political qualif
cations This once accomplished, and can with
confidence look forward for brighter prospects to dawn
