Ia speaking Of Mr.. Woodbury's speech
upon the tariff, 1.-The MississipPian mis-
takes the remark Of the Globe concerning
that speech. The Mi,sissppian attributes
this remark to the Glohe: "Mr. Wood

or any other subject, The Globe aid
"Mr. Wood5asy's speech was considered
the most able he ever delivered il Congress

rec'ian may seem very unimportant, but
an individual may sometimes be as much

total neglect. 1t is esidos useless in do.

editorially in The Madlsonian of Thursday

to be the last act of the pen Of the late Sc,

now undergoing the sentence Of transport

quence Of their participation in the rcyo-

particular aspirations made to the British
Government in their behalf, through that

GEORGE WI. DALLAS AND A NATION
AL BANK.

Many of the friends of Henry Clay are oppo-
sed to Mr.. DALLAS because, as they allege, he
once voted for National Bank, and that no was
at the time, and is now, friend of such an insti-
tuition. Now, if it is fact that Mr.. Dallas is a
friend 10 bank, it is a strong reason why the
wings should give him their support A Natlor-
al Bank is one of the cardinal measures of the
wings, and they should at once cease their
abuse of Mr. Dallas for his advocacy of their dar-
ling scheme.
But we tell our readers that there is not a
more sincere opponent of aUnted States Bank
in the country than George NJ Dallas. IT is
true he once voted for a bauk, but he did so in
compliance with the express Instructions of the
Legislature of his State. Mr.. Dallas is a Demo-
crat, and feels himself bound to obey the in
structions of his constituents. He is a different
man from Clay. Mr.. Clay was instructed by the
Legislative of his State, in 1924, to vote for
General Jackson for the Presidency; he DISC
beyed, and tho coalition between Adams and
Clay was formed, and Clay made Secretary Of
State He disobeyed again in lS42, the almost
unanimous instructions of his State Legislature,
by refusing TO vote for the repeal Of the Bank
rupt Law.
Mr.. Dallas represented Pennsylvania in the
the Senate in 1882 and 1884 During this
time, the bill to extend the charter of the bank
came before Congress, and Mr. Dallas complied
with his instructions But that the Democracy
of the Uuited States may become acquainted
with the opinions Of Mr.. Dallas, we make the
following extracts from a letter ofhs, to Dem
ocratic committee Of Smith6eld, Pennsylvania,
dated June Z, 1886, in which he refers TO the
bill extending the charter, and sustains the veto
of General Jackson:
"Thc bill passed both Houses Of Congress,
but met from the Roman tribune who flied the
Executive Office, in whose elevation had taken
active part, and from the current Of whose poll
