THE HARD.

The policy Of Governor Reynolds is no doubt
Swallowed forth in the following, from the Jefferson
Inquirer, his organ;
"Tbe Reporter formally defines its position on the
subject Of banking. II seems deeply alarmed at the
progress the doctrine Of establishing the constitutional
the only true currency, is making.
"Tbc party has advanced many degrees along this
principle since 1892. Banks are not found indispen-
sable TO public happiness they admitted 90 be
curse TO public virtue and they have been found un-
safe and dangerous institutions. Opinion has become
unfettered on the bank subject Ten years ago, few
u,-u Jrrod 10 breathe of an EXCLUSIVE INITIAL
Lie currency, but now 1T Is THE LANGUAGE
OF THE NATION.
"The project Iof establishing exclusive metal
lie CURRENCY is entertained by statesmen and frank
" and fcarlessly indicated. Leading Democratic
journals are BOLDLY ADVOCATING it. The
Globe--THE NATIONAL ORGAN OF THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY--IS URGING AND DE
PENDING 1T, and yet, in this crisis, when the De-
mocratie party about TO be crowned with sue.
CESS the voice Of TRAITOR is heard, crying, small
notes.
Here j. the standard OF orthodoxy, raised by the
organ Of the State Administrston-tho Jefferson In
quirer-which is known to be under the influence Of
the Governor and is believed to be party owned by
him.
Ten years ago, we are told that few men dared 10
breathe Of an ereiusre nstoii,e ouvrtney--but now
the Governors organ informs that II il the Ian
guage Of the natonthst statesmen arc " boldly ad-
vocating ittbat the Globe, tho national organ of
the Democratic party is urging and defending it''--
and II is said, when the parry arc about TO be
crowned with success, the voice OF traitor is heard
crying small notes"
II H. Of course, treason TO oppose exclusive me-
isIic currency, and the prostration Of all banks.
This is evidently the policy Of Governor Reynolds,
~ avowed by bis organ, and the people Of ST. Louis
are called on TO sud the Governor for the course he
a pursuing Will they do III
n Is useless for those who are for lauding Gov. |

DETROIT, February lS loaS-
Gen. Case arrived in this city To-Day cue
was handsomely received By bis old iowns"e'
and friends, bu, in simple add unosten'a''ous
manner.
There was none Of the gaudy paseanlry usua'
on such OCCASIONS but hearty and hea"ie''
weIcoms back TO his home by old and young oil
all political parties.
The Common Council, composed OF gen"e-
men of all parties, had appointed their Com
mltee Of Arrangements to cooperate WIN
like committee on the part OF the cil'zens ana
the Legislature now in session adjourned, ou'
refused TO attend in body for fear OF giving
politcal caste of character to his reception, Gas
the entire body belong to the Democracy win
the exception Of four members,) yet WISHING
him individually and promiscuousiy with the
citizens of Detroit.
He was addressed on the part OF the ciizens
welcoming him home. apd responded TO them
without political reflection being made, and the
most pleasing exchange of fellowship passed
on the occasion amongst gentlemen iriendiy 70
each and every of the Presidential candidates
without alusion to political differences.
Indeed, Gen. Cass has never been known or
thought of here as politician, but as citizen
aud a citizen soldier defending this frontier
during the last war.
Thus no political capital has been made out
Of his arrival in Michigan by any man or any
party, and we are as we anticipated we should
be, left to battle for our respective favortes, al
least one of whom is gaining ground daily whilst
others are losing.
The course pursued by Senator Benton on
the Bankrupt bill, is destroying every vestage
of hope on the part Of Mr.. Van Buren,, and
premature attempt here to get up public
meeting in favor of Mr.. Calhoun, with his
known and steady opposition TO the great in
terest of the Western States as manifested on
the Oregon question, and particularly his ever
lasting enmty to lake harbors for the preserva-
ton of our shipping. and our property, and our
lives from wreck and ruin, are sadly injurious
10 him; whilst the course Of Congress on the
Exchequer bill, and the continued firmness OF
President Tyler, are daily increasing his popu-
larty. So far as respects Mr. Clay, he stands
where the campaign Of last fall left him. Few
if any of our people are troubled with the

AN INVASION OF MEXICO.

Reports arc in circulation, says the New Orleans
Bulletin, and pretty generally believed, (even though
denied by some) that in the eastern counties of
Texas, several influential men arc actively engaged

leo II Is said that Gen. Rusk and Col. Mayheld
have already engaged several hundred men from Ma
oogdochos, Houston, San Augustine and other east

In the report Of the Committee Of Ways ana
Means Of the House Of Representatives made
by Mr.. Fillmore, on yesterday, the following
statement appears:
"In regard to the estimate Of receipts from the
public lands, ii is very difficult TO form any oPinio"
without knowing what the President intends u do re-
spectng the public sales. The Secretary estimates
So $50 600 from this source for the calendar year
Although It appears by report from the Secretary
Of the Treasury dated January %, loA3, tScnate
document No SO, page 81 that during the year com
mcncing on the 4th Of March, 1910, $500 i5O acres
were advertiaed and during the year commencing on
the ath Of March, le4l I,447 gas acres were adSer-
tsed, yet II is understood that no public sales have Ia
ken place for the last two years Emgrants anxious
TO obtain presumption rights settling upon thc
public domain and il is only necessary to bring tins
land into the public market by auction TO realize
large amount 10 the Treasury. The ordinary sales
at private entry may or may not equal the estimate
but the committee have no hesitation III giving u rs
their opinion ii tho public sales shall take place IN
manner best calculated to promote the good Of all in
terested, that the full amount estimated may be re-
allied from that source.
The palpable object of this statement is to
induce belief that, although large bodies OF
public land were proclaimed for sale by the
President within the time mentioned, yet that
no public sales had then taken place. Now,
the files of the General Land Office will show
that within the time mentioned, to w.t. the
years ending the 4th of March, lS41 and the
4th of March, 1912, nearly sere,.teen millions
Of public land mere offered at public sale.
Another object seems to have been, to i'm
pose belief that the apprehensions expressed
by the President in his communication to Con-
gress were llusory, when it will appear, by
reference to the same authentic source, that
the public sales, during the present year, as
fur as officially heard from, do not, by onehalf,
realise the estimates Of the Secretary of the
Treasury, and Of course that the President is
fully sustained.
JUSTICE.
