Great Public Meeting Of the Repealers on
Tuesday Next.

From an advertisement IN another column, it will
be seen that the solvent merchants and sound traders
of New York, intend to hold tremendous PUBLIC
MEETING at the Exchange Tuesday next at
two o'clock, praying of Congress for the lMME-
date REPEAL of the Bankrupt Law, on the
ground that it is law utterly unconstitutional, un-
Just, immoral, subversive of the rights of man, and
leading to complete dissolution Of society and
civilization.
It will be seen that this call is signed by some of
the respectable, honest, talented, and solvent
merchants of New York This meeting will call
forth the whole solvent population of New York,
and probably, for the first time since the revolution,
1t will Sill Wall street with sssemblage of honest
men, who pay one hundred cents in the dollar.
Now, therefore, comes the terrible tug of war be-
tween the debtors and the creditors. We are neu-
trail. We occupy an independent grouad, and shall
stand by and see fair play and sound argun pre-
vail Several good speakers will be present, and the
whole will be reported in the Herald in the ablest
manner, on Wednesday next.
