 ssBe assured, that there is no difference, even this present day, between the party cali ed by themselves, the, Uhig party, and the old traitorous Tory party of the American revolution, they have always, since that pe- riod, but under variety of names, been op- posed to the Constitutional form of our de- mocratc government" .ark's Bonner.
 ssWe copy the above, not for the purpose of denying its truth, for it is so grossly false there is no necessity for it; but we do 1t to show the opinion the editor of the Banner entertains of the intelligence of his readers. If one in hundred of them believe, the above, which he assures them Is a fact, they are more ignorant and credulous than we have ever imagined them to be-
 Times and Adrocate.
 Now, it is possible that, in the eyes of the Times and Advocate, we may seem very ig- norant of the history of our country, but so far as we have read, we never have under stood that there ever has been but two great political parties in the United States the old tory party, who were opposed to the re- volution and preferred to be slaves to heart less monarch, rather than to be free and in- dependent, in the enjoyment of their natural rights, and who, during that bloody contest 'of bold democratic freemen, warning against British tyranny, preferred to succor and sus- tain the foes of their country, to aiding or assisting the little band of freemen who  achieved the Independence of the United States, They too, led oa by Hamilton, the base monarchist, opposed the adoption of the Constitution, that great bulwark of democrat ic faith. The offspring and descendants of that party opposed the declaration of the last war, the principal object of which, was the protection of our commerce, and of those bold and hardy seamen who were engaged m it. They were the ringleaders of the mo- torious Hartford Convention, the authors of 'seditious and traitorous publications, advs- ing the people to return to their allegiance to England, about twenty years after their coun- trymen had dearly bought them independ- ence, at the price of blood, and of these, many belong to what is now called the arhie party, and are even the most forward and -adroit of that party. The party that is now opposed to the democratic party, who prefer to be called the sscoon" party, Is com posed of the descendants of the old tory party; of heartless, disaflected, would-be- statesmen; of disappointed aspirants for of flee; of tools of England,. who would sell their birthright for shinplasers and rag cur rency; of lunaic apes; of European arsto- cracy. This party is iniavor of an unconsti- tutional national bank, with all it's attendant evils, of which the country is now harassed, the consequence of previous experiments in banking. They are the avowed enemies to free trade, circumscribing the commerce of our growing country by high protectice ta- riffs acting unequally and uniustly upon diff ierent portions of the Union They would distribute and squander the proceeds of the sales of the public domain, They have pin ned their faith and hopes upon the coat-tail ~f one man, whom they significantly call the "old coon.o man who has once in his political life, bartered himself and the in- terests of his constituents away, for the small change of federalism, and once has been sold into Egypt by his demagoguing party. This Cataline is their adoration, and their first choice to fill the high station of President of the United States
 Of ite democratic party, from the earliest period of our country's history, may you find its footsteps, and easily trace its mea- sures; in time of war boldly defending the country from the ravages of an invading en- emy, suffering Restitution and want in the cause of liberty-and in times of peace, en- gagged in the pursuits of agriculture, gathering wealth and plenty from the soil they had de- tended. This is the party, who declared and achieved the independence of the United States, who framed the Constitution. and who firmly adhere to a literal construction of that sacred document They They ever hare been opposed to the malice of the smuggling tories, tc the monarchical schisnss of the rede- ralsts, and to the lunatic schemes and chi canery of the " old coon'' , and his whip ad- herents.
 The editor of the Banner has taken down the emblem at the head of the inside of his paper. We suspect he has heard of Cant. ocot.s coon, and has determined to profit by }ne discretion 1isnlavnd bx, cold ,,>,, ],
