The People moping-The Land Biu-Pubiic Credit, DC
The People, who have been patiently waiting for
months for the favorable action Of Congress, have
become restless under the inefcency Of their repre-
sentatyes at a crisis important in their financial
concerns. They have become, was agoing to say,
alarmed at the increasing decay of public credit ana
the exposed and deienceless state OF the country
so critical juncure in our national affairs hence'
the expression Of public sentiment through heii
meetings, They have become aroused to sense Oh
the Importance Of decisive action upon the part
Of Congress in this matter and the People, in every
section of the Union, will become aroused. unless
they disposition in their Representatives to CO.
operate with the Executive in applying the proper
remedy They look upon the great cardinal interests
Of the country as paramount to every other conside
ration. Hence they repudiate the tendency and Of
feet and utterly denounce the doctrine that ret to
the country must be procrastinated to subserve the
selfish views Of broken down politicians. They dis
card-tterly and efIectually discard the policy that
the People must continue to suffer until another Pre-
sidential canyass-tkat the character and credit OF
the country must be disgraced-that this individual
or that individual may ride the whrlwind and di-
rect the storm"
The Message Of the President recommending, un-
der existing circumstances suspension Of the opera
ton Of the Land Bill has been well and favoraby
ceived 1t is regarded another evidence of the
anxious desire and the fixed determination Of the Ex-
ecutive to sustain the credit of the country. The
policy Of giving away the proceeds of the public do
main, al period of time when the paper of the Go
vernment is in deprecated condition, and when The
revenue arising from other sources is wholly made
quate to meet the ordinary expenditures of the Co
vernment may well be questioned The contingency
having arrived, which renders il necessary agreeaby
the provisions OF the act to raise the maximum OF
duties beyond twenty per cent. for the purposes OF
revenue the demand for its suspension at least seems
to be imperative Although many of the States would
have received essential aid in the liquidation of their
debts had not the circumstances of the times required
suspension of the act yet believe but reflect the
views and sentiments OF the people when remark,
that they prefer first to established upon firm
basis and proud preeminence the credit of the Gene
raj Government She is polar STAR and if suffered
to set our vessc is without beacon guide her on

destined haven. OHIO.

THE ARKANSAS FRONTIER.

/ The promptness and energy manifested by
the Secretary of War in providing for the de-
fence of the Arkansas frontier, in the event of
any difficulties caused by the invasion of Texas
by the Mexican troops, entitle that gentleman
to high commentator. With very scanty
means at command on an extended frontier
open at all times to hostile incursions by in
dams and others, it must be task of extreme
difficulty to draw troops from remote points
and imbody them in sufficient force to ensure
efectualy the safety Of the scattered and con
sequently exposed population, The policy of
maintaining limited military establishment,
under Government such as ours, however wise
necessarily renders the disposition of the difie-
rent corps SO as to act in concert, when necessa
ry, a source of much embarrassment in times
Of sudden emergency, and the greater credit
should attach to the Head of the Department of
War for efecting the object, without the with
drawal of troops from other points where their
service may be indispensable to the mante.
nance of the national honor. This credit is
most assuredly due to Mr. Spencer on the pre-
sent occas ~"
