We had no sooner read the Times article,
when orr eyes lei! upon The following pregnant
passage in The Union:
"Amone he resolutions adopted by The Ba!ii-
Z
pendent Treasury These resolutions have ever
poen regarded hy The President as indicating the
rnlicy By which his administration should DC
governed. The independent Treasury was sns'
FAMED hv The yoe Of The President and OF The Sc
cre,aty of the Treasury, and further experience
has only confirmed The views then taken oy no'n.

supply Of The constitutional currency
Can any one doubt, after reading The aooVe
from The Union, which, al least has good opror-
mnities for knowing The views OF the Executive
that our neishbors If the Times must be mIs'a-
Ken in their beliet2 Unless the Times has Oh
lained lie mesmeric power o. diving mo inc

vastly different from what his nearest ifienas

If The Executive continues in The path ALREADY
marked out, the people will not be disappointed.
