d. sired 10 20, The millions Of the Treasury "i' s''
vdy hands Of hs parlsans and parasites
Again, on the 2o,h OF November, the Globe,
while commenting ON Mr.. Leigh's proposition,
said
"We verify believe that the present system OF de-
postss for the public money, regulated by law as
Will be- lis as good for safety a. the least liable 10
abuse by the Executive Of any which the VII oil man
can conceive
Again
Lot Congress then do their duty. Let them re-
strict the power Of removing the dsposl,es IRON one
bank 10 another-et them cut OIL all measures ny
which the President control or influence those
insltutons-lske from him and his suboIdinaies, ar
far consistent with the public interest," all dlseie-
ton upon the subject. This is the doctrine OF the
Pr o,est-utis is the desire Of the President"
Again, the Globe said
"The power now exercised over the State Banks
is only such has been exercised by the admInlsIa
lions Of Washington, the Adamses, Jefferson. Madl-
son, and Monroe, but II Congress can be Induced 10
impose wholesome restrictions, General Jackson VIII
glory in il another Of The happy fruits OF his haf-
rassed, but for himself and country, most fortunate
administration"
The Iecklessness Of the Globe was most slrl-
kiogly illustrated when il said on Monday last
that the four deposile banks in New York " IN
creased their loans TO an amount equal 10 that OF
all other banks Of the cty"-and it proceeds 10
remark that % the faculty of swelling four banks
to the size of all the other banks in the same
city put together, through the Government CAPT
tal conc enlrated in them and Of reducing the
specie held and the loans made by the latter in
the same ratio, is most fearful one TO be exert
ed by single invisible hand" The iasiiy of
the assertion is proved in the article OF the Globe
copied on the same day from the Morning News,
wherein il gives the loans in November, 1S43,
August and November, 1874.
Nov. l8i3 August. No.. 1874.
Loans Of Depo-
site Banks, 10 3l4 O22 I5,74725O I4,s63 29S
Other City Bks 24,42O,9l4 2s,4s2,6O7 27.797,2l6
Here 1t is shown that the loans of the other
banks amounted to almost double those of the
deposlte banks, and yet the Globe has the hardi-
hood to assert that the amount of the latter
equalled that of the former.
The Globe regards il as a criminal act that
the leposite banks should collect from the other
banks the Government money for which they
were responsible and had given security
Quite reprehensible, in the eyes of the Globe,,4
was it for part of those balances 10 be collect
ed in specie, while in the same breath the Globe
advocates the collection, in specie, of the entire
revenue of the country. We could extend our
article many columns, with the proofs of the
unblushing effrontery and recklessness of prin-
ciple exhibited by the Globe. But this, we
think, will suffice for today.

THE PRESIDENT ELECT AND THE
CLIQUES.

Although the editor of the Union processes to
speak on his own responsibility, in regard to the
course which the President elect has deter
mined to pursue we make no hesitation IN re-
ceiving his opinions as good authority, and no
doub, the country will rejoice in the realization
of the prediction:
From the Nashville Union
We have not had one word of conversation
sultation in any way with COL Polk about his Cabi-
net or his preferences between Messrs. Wright and
Calhoun. What we say, therefore, we say from our
knowledge of the character Of the man. He will
not permit himself to be entanged IN any scheme
connected with the succession. His sole aim VIII be
10 administer the Government prosperously Tor four
wears He will leave the succession entirely to the
people. In making up his Cabinet, he will not have
any regard TO the question Oh the succession ne
will not take sides between Messrs. Calhoun and
Wright He knows them both to be men Of splendid
Abilities of sterling virtues Of sound democracy and
of pure characters But which Of them, or whether
either Of them shall be his successor he will leave to
the sovereign people, whoutn the slightest degree
undertaking to influence their choice. II Mr.. Calhoun
should be retained in the Cabinet we therefore I'M
dertske to assert that such retention would in no de-
gree indicate the preference Of COL Polk for him
over MIR. Wright or any other democrat for the Pre-
sdency Nor would Mr. Calhoun's Withdrawal
from the Cabinet and the ming oil MS place oy aho-
Their be susceptible OF construction gong TO indi-
cate Col Folks feelings or preferences.
Although we speak entirely upos our own respon-
siblity, we think we know the President elect so
we'll that we cannot mistake his views, when we as.
sert that in making his Cabinet, his selections will be
made exclusively with an eye TO the success oil his
own administration, and not in the smallest degree
with an eye TO helping any particular friend TO be his
successor. If there be democratic eiiques, as We
have seen stated let these eique learn at once tina,
seh they will never receive any countenancs IRON
the President elect. His democracy is OF that stamp
which looks to the prosperity of the whole party and
the entire country He has seen the fatal consequen-
ces Of division in our ranks, and his will be
taken with an eye to harmony and union IN our party
lie will not permit the selection of his Cabinet 10 be
in any way connected with the succession.
The position Of the President elect is in many
respects extremely delicate--but knowing his
promptness, his frmness, his wisdom, his per
severance and his ardent patriotism, as we
do we shall repose with perfect conference
in the belief that his difficulties will be dssipa
ted as he meets them, and that his administration
will be emnently successful in securing the prosper
ty Of the whole people and in maintaining the hlgf
character Of the Government

GOVERNOR MATTOCKS LETTER.
To CALVIN TowNsLEY, Esq. Chairman of the
State Wing Central Committee:
SIR:
AS Wing Convention is soon to be called to
nominate State officers, and as may again be pro-
posed for Governor if | remain silent. | take the
liberty to inform you and the Freemen ofthe State,
that most respectfully decline being candidate
for re election. The reason for doing this, having
held the office but one year, although undoubtedly
anticipated, should be stated.
The overwhelming affection with which it has
pleased God to visit me, has rendered me unfit to
be the Chief Magistrate of this intelligent State,
where there are many of far superior qualifca-
tons, and whose minds are not impaired by old age
and mental suffering.
In retiring forever from public life, desire to
express my gratitude to the people of the State for
the offices which, by their representatives they
have conferred upon me.
During the canvass for the Office which now
hold, the support of my political friends and espe-
cially the Wing press, deserves my warmest ac-
acknowledgements; and my opponents, including their
Presses, with few small exceptions gave me bat
tie in manner that was fair and honorable, for
which offer them my thanks.
People of Vermont, adieu! have known you
long and love you well-and may the Almighty
have you in His holy keeping
JOHN MATTOCKS.

tOCOFOCOISM AND THE VT. BAND.
Although the contemplate ialsehoods and mis-
representations of the two communications alluded
to in the following "Card," are hardly worth the
notice of any one, yet in justice to the members OF
the Band we willingly give place to their dlsclam-
er of the scurrillous iasehoods and statements
of these honest though rather ardent and meddle-
some Democrats.
That the gentlemanly correspondent of the "Spir-
Il of the Age" should in his excessive love for the
cause of democratic principles be found engaged IN
thus speeding on the "great truths" of the party is
not at all strange. 1t is only while engaged in such
laudable enterprises that the greatness OF the man is
seen; and it is only in sucn exhibitions that he
sees the full beauty of that democracy-ior which
his love is SO apparent
With the correspondent of the Patriot, the case
is materially difierent-and while we express our
regret to find gentleman OF his usual dighiy OF
character aud standing in society engaged IN so
miserable q business--we cannot but add our sur
prise that he should far suffer his creduty to be
worked upon, as to lead him to implicate In base
act of pecuniary dishonesty his ioarm personal
Though not politically friends and those too, who
he knows generous as upright, as honest, land
who would as soon scorn mean action) as himself
Really, friend-- the worth Of your democracy
will not long hold up even to the valuation recently
placed upon IT, if you often exhibit it in so question
able manner. IT, however, this gentleman's mind
is particularly buthened with such further remn-
cences" will add to the SenSltyenesS OF the
Young men of the Herald" we hope in all truth
that he will free himself at once. Out with them
If they in any way implicate the conduct or char
acter of so humble an northumberland if the cause
of democracy require their publicity, why do you
hesitate A pretty democrat you,-that when you
set out to abuse and viliiy friend you do not do
it by wholesale. But Danish, doodleS, UaniSh !"
Let us now see what the members Of the Band
have to say in regard to this matter
A CARD.
To the Editor of The Rutland Herald:
We the undersigned, members of the /" Rutland
Band" beg leave 10 state that we have seen with
regret the gross cal,lnnies contained in two COM
munications lone published in the esprit of the
Age" and the other in the Vermont Patriot, " in
regard to the treatment received by US from the
Vermont Delegation to the Convention Of Rafca-
ton, on trip to Baltimore.
We characterize as CALuMNIoUs Publications
most of the pretended facts in both these communi-
cations, and the residue as MALICIOUS MIsREPRE-
sENTATIoNs. Our journey was a most pleasant
one and the treatment we received from the Yer
mont Delegation-and from all others-was kind
and generous.

instantly the magnetic fluid passes over the 40

The meeting of the Wing Club on "Wednesday
evening was very large, and we trust the interest
will be fully maintained. By the way, is not this
just the time for the Wings all over the county TO
hold town meetings? Both parties have nominated
their candidates and exhibited their colors; we
will add that the questions at issue are most deep
ly interesting to all the people Of Vermont. Let
the people freely consider the important subject,
and enlghten, encourage and stir up each other.
