CLA Y'S PLEA FOR A BANK.


"The necessity for national institution does not re-
suit purely from the existence of local institutions, but
arises also out Of the fact that all the great CONNER
cal nations ofthe world have their. Banks England
France, Austria Russia, Holland and all the great
powers Of Europe, have their national banks"-C Clays
Raleigh speech.
Because England has national bank, there is ne.
cessy that we should obey her exampel Now there
a school boy that would not be ashamed of such reason
ing this? The necessity of national bank to Eng
land grew out her national debt and the neeess
touus conlrvance of the most corrupt and ambitious Of
Enslands minister's. Robert Walpole Why did not
MIR. Bidde's attorney go to the fountain head for his
premisesl The fact is Clay's ideas run upon splendid
government with central throne Of power on which his
ungovernable ambition is ever sitting To break up Our
league of States" and consolidate us into one strong
central power with its national army, and national ma
Wy, and national bank in imitation "of all the great
nations OF the world" is the ruling desire Of his heart,
as il is the direct aim Of the measure he precaims But
isit not strange reason to give the twhgs of l84O
that national bank is the offspring Of the government
of Europe? What cry was so loud and fierce against
The subtsasury thatitwas desired in Europea And
who was so loud and fierce in that demagoguism as this
same Henry Clay2 Thus vanishes another humbug

ALIEN AND SEDITION LAWS.

Let it remembered by every citizen of the United
States that in the reign of John Adams the federal party
passed the odous Alien and Sedition Law.
Let it be remembered that the object of the federal
party in passing the alien law was to prevent Irish
Germans, Epgshmen and other foreigners, from seek
ing home in the United States.
Let be remembered, that the federal whig party
wanted to deprive foreigners from the rights and privi
gss of eeen, and endeavored TO reduce them to the
condition Of serE.
LIE, be remembered that the object OF the sediion
law, aoas to saaeke the press, and gag The UOice of free
men.
Let be remembered that under the influence Of the
Sedition Law, American citizens were fined and i'm
prisoned, for publicly maintaining their rights.
Let it be remembered that The federaists in the Hart
ford Convention, advocated the Alien and Sedition law
denounced foreigners and endeavured 10 sell the berie:

tIniormation received al Vera Cruz on the Slth

gess had refused to grant President Santa Anna the
four millions Of dollars and thirty housand additional
troops called for by him Tor his proposed invasion Of
Texas-they had however, authorized him 10 raise one
million of dollars il he could do without having re-
course 10 forced loan and also 10 take the number Of
men required from the thirysx thousand nov in the
service provided he would supply theiT places with
| like number the National Militia This propositions
it was supposed Santa Anna would reject, as he has
confidence in the fathfuness Of the militia such TO-
dy of men if assembled in force and in the absence of
so large portion of The regular troops, would without
doubt greatly endanger, Gfthey did not ultimately

| The contemplated invasion of Texas by Grand
Mexican Army is for the present likely 10 prove iail

any other light than Mexican gasconade, Ibis how
ever should not deter the Texans from being or the

| Unless the Mexican Congress come to ,hereseue Of
our Ani-Texas wings in the United States, and aid
Santa Anna in his war notons-how IS it possible for
them to rghen our people into the support Of Clay and
his policy by hrea ening them with war with Mexico
and the displeasure OF Englandl We would suggest TO
our opponents the proprey Of their despatching
special messenger to the Mexican Congress, who shall

DISUNION.
To Mr..

Democrats, whenever you hear coon caDting about
dsunion, Modification, &C. and charging Polk and the
Democracy with striving to annex Texas TO the United
States, when it was once portion OF our own soil,
talking of John C. Calhoun &c, just gently Jog his
memory of the Modification of our own State Govern
men by the disqualification OF the whg members OF the
Ohio Legislature but two years agol Just ask him why
lis party appOv,d Of that act Of treason against Consti-
tuition law peace and harmony. Ask him where was
Tom Corwin at the time that infamous act was con-
summated? who now praes eloquently and patriotic
ally about the importance of rejecting Texas that the
Union may he PRESCRIBED. Where was Judge Wright,
OF the Cincinnati Gazette, who now is so horrihedl at
Nui6caton2 Was he not one OF the poers OF the act
Where was Tom Ewing, who in our market-space the
other night, with mock-bypocrisy unsurpassed, appeal
ed to his hearers 10 oppose the incorporation OF Texas
and save the Unioh Was he not another OF the traitors
in that memorable occasion2 Ask them these questions
and tell them that their warmly expressed love for Union
and Constitution and civil Government, are but the
shallow cant of men who were traitors when treason
had reared its head in our but the Vaporings o.
mep who have been condemned by the strong voice O.

IDENTITY OF WHIGs AND NATIVES.

The Pittsburg Daily American, the Wing organ Of
that city has the following extraordinary article on the
Native American party:
"There are few good Wings but are friendly TO the
principles Of this party, and WILL at proper time, car
ry them out" This is plain enough.
So thoroughly imbued is the Whis party in Pittsburg
with the anli-repubcan principle of Nativeism, that al
a recent meeting they gave three cheers for "CLAY
FRELINGHUYsEN AND KING WfLLIAM"-
The Clay organ thinks this was "hprudent" and aur
butes that Kingy addition to the foreigners" who
formed part of the assemblage Wing nativeism, then
appears to consent to the association Of foreigners pro
vded they retain their monarchial principles Thei
hostility is confined to republicans of foreiga birth

PERSECUTION FOR LIBERTY's SAKE

The reign OF terror under old John Adams was not
more despcabe in the sight of freemen than the con-
duct OF the modern desperadoes who initiate his exam
pie Read the following, as detailed by one on the spot
and ask how il sounds in a republicl
"There are many other circumstances very ineres
ting attending the last scenes Of DORIS civil hfe A
short time before his civil death, friend called upon
him 10 obtain his views, what he wished done. He
asked him he intended to petition to the Legislature
for pardon or relief? He replied, very calmly "No he
had done nothing to ask pardon for Nor did he wish
his friends 10 petition for him." He also expressed the
same views 10 several clergymen. He told them he
had done nothing wrong & petition for pardon would
imply guilt There could be no pardon without pre-
vious guilt He moreover felt happy that 'he had God
and eternal truth on his side" The sheriff was very
rude to him, aferhe got him within the walls Of his
prison. He had given his word that he would give am
pie time to finish some writings aAerthey arrived, before
| he would put him into his CELL Bat he violated his
promise and hurried him into his cell before he could
| finish His father and mother met him at the
prison, and were permitted to have an interview with
him. She presented him with bunch ofroses, posi-
bly the last token of mothers lovehe will ever receive.
She blessed mother in Israeli sympatbises with him.
AGer the interview was over he observed to fTend'
he was happy to find his mother in such right spirit
and frame of mind He was then put into his loahlul
cell, and made subject to prison discipline among fel-
ons. But his setting sun as glorious as that Of the
English martyrs under he reign Of Charles the Second
OF Queen Mary.

States, with INSTRUCTIONS in his pocket (in tho
shape Ofresoutions passed by the Pennsylvania Legs
