publican party will go in mourning and all The

the hard sentence pronounced against them by
Mr.. Benion's "impera Globe"
The Globe--or rather the new ilustrious
EDMUND BURKE-will doubtless be replied to IN
proper manner by the sterling Democratic
journals ia New Hampshire. Our purpose Is
merely TO point out the absurdity OF one OF The
leading doctrines Of the blind fadicals-the ex-
c.usive metallic currency projec;-and 10 show
what progress il i, making in the different
States.
Our readers doubtless remember The article
ON this subject which we copied fortnight sine
from the Missouri Reporter, entitled "HoneSi
Ignorance" Ii seems that ball is rolling ''ike
thunder" through Ohio. Wehave just received
the Circleville CO., Waterman Extra. with
that article copied in it, and pretaced by the fol-
lowing circular from the Hon. X. p. SPALDING,
as true a Democrat as ever breathed The air OF
this Republic The Statesman ref, rred TO, is

Country.

TO THE DEMOCRATS OF OHIO!!
1t has been frequently sad and no has yet been
found so bold dispute the truth of the PROPOSE
ton, that the safety Of our republican Institutions,
must manly depend upon an enlightened state OF
public opinion. II this be true, of the greatest
importance that the people be put in possession OF
any, and every thing, that i'll have tendency to
shed light in their path while cropping their way thro
the labyr of mod I'm politics.
Ga TUESDAY The 7lh instant, was in the office OF
Gov. Shannon, when he showed me tn. Madisonian,
Of the 4th, containing, as thought, and still think
und sensible and judic,ous article, written by MIR
Penn Of st Louis, upon the subject Of an exclusive
metallic currency.
After perusing it, remarked to Gov. Shannon,
that the question discussed by Mr.. Penn, with SO
much ability, was interesting to the people Of
Ohio at this jancture and should therefore, make
application Mr. Medary, to publish the article in
the Statesman for tho benefit of the democracy at
large.
The Governor smiled when made this remark,
and said he very much doubted whether the Editor Of
the Statesman would suffer il to appear in his col
umhs.
No, doubling myself, but that Mr.. Medary had suf-
fcicnt confidence in the intelligence and integrity Of
our democratic brethren, throughout the State to
trust them with the reading OF argument upon any
subjec, and u0der any cir umstances immediately
wrote the following note, which placed in the
hands of Mr.. Medary the day, and then
drew his attento to the article in the Madisonian,
~hich wished him TO transfer to the Statesman.
After looking at the article for short time Mr..
Medary said, with much apparent warmth, that !,
should not appear in the Statesman that Penn the
author of the piece, endeavorng to ruin the de
mocratc party that he should not allow the Sta
to be the vehicle Of abuse to Thos. Benton, and
much more 10 the same effect.
As he persisted in refusing to publish the article
have concluded TO make application to the editor
Of the Watchman at Circleyille, who is the neares
Democratic editor, TO print me few thousand CO.
pies, in handful form and the same will, in that
shape, II In no other be presented TO many of you for
your serious and attentive consideration.
am respectfully yours,
