Well, what was the consequence oil that move
ment? Panics in the k-market-derangement
of business-pubc mee,ings-great excitement
vast neutrality-suspicious. orations-and great
movements of all sorts, all mixed up and blended
together The result of that false position then as
sumed by the whig party through the Intervention
of its leaders of that day, and influenced by the
money OF Nicholas Biddle, who then controlled the
bank, was the total and disastrous defeat of 1892,
and complete annihiation of that party until the
revdlsion took place IN 1887, by which means they
got into power in lS40, only to enjoy it for forty
days,
Such was the position of the whig party-such
was the policy they adopted in lS293O, in reference
to the great question of that day-the United Sues
Bank; and such seems to be the policy adopted by
them in the present day with regard to still more
influential and mighty popular questionable Oregon
question, influenced by the manufacturers and
stockholders, and 'bears," and all the various mas
ter politicians of the party Mr.. Webster and the
other wing leaders, and the whig organs, are assu-
ming ground that is entirely anti-Amercan-en-
tirey oreisn-and it will swamp the whole party in
less than six months. There can be no mistake
about the natural impulses OF the great masses in
this country in regard to the Oregon territory. No
matter what the sentiments of Mr.. Calhoun, or MIR.
Benton, or Mr. Any-3ody-else have been in former
years, the great of the people are now speak
ing out language that question, just as they
did on the Texas question:; and Mr.. Webster, or
any other great man. who rises in hostility TO that
movement of the American people, will find him
self shipwrecked and stranded before he knows
where he is. We are, then, perfectly astonshed to

pairing to commit the same fatal error, which pro-
duced TO them such overwhelming disaster between
the years 1880 and 1886, and which will even, to a
greater extent, cover them with ruin between the
years ls45 and 1850, if it be persisted in. This is
the postion.of the whig party, whatever the enthu
sasts, the fanatics, the Fourierites the stock
bers, the BEARS" the aboitonsts or any other of
the odds and ends of which the whig party is CON-
posed, may say to the contrary.
The SHAVING TRApE.-We have frequently been
asked, of kate, why we don't say something
about the bankingand shaving operations of Moses
Y Beach. The question, perhaps, is pertinent-and
the answer shall be so. The&eason is, because we
don't care any thing about them We have repeat
edly cautioned the public against being guIed by
note shavers and we now hope they will be shaved
TO their hearts content-we don't care how well
they get shaved. Moses is the gamer! He is
now doing fair and profitable business-he has
great many irons in the fire His Lehigh bank pro-
baby yields him $4,000 year profit He keeps
the Ulster Co. bank in operation, too-the Malone
bank still goes on-but these poor affairs. The
Painted bank is also kept alive-but it is the Lee
high bank out of which Moses makes, perhaps,
$4,000 year.
This wonderful and benevolent financier also
manages to make half per cent on all the bank paper
he issues-the notes Of these banks being mostly
shaved at his counter in New York. But the en-
arged views OF Moses will not permit him to be
satisfied with this patry profit, and he would gladly
increase the amount were it not for the existence of
our usury laws; which, of course, he is very much
opposed to. Nor are we satisfied-we never shall
be either, till we see Moses y. Beach making.
100000 year, by one grand, glorious, and magni-
fcent bank, which may be established, if he likes,
for the ostensible purpose of benefitting the poor
benighted seamstresses and laboring classes
The banking business is getting profitable and
we don't know but may be inclined to embark
IN it ourself shortly. The State of Pennsylvania,
perhaps, will give us charter, and we think we
know man who is even more expert than Beach
tice. This is our barber, Jim Grant, whom we
mean to take away from the business of shaving To-
coocos and hepoor DEVILS to shave the dear public,
to the tune of 100000 ayear. Pennsylvania is one
of the richest and most obliging States in the Union
She is rich in coal and iron, and is now about man.

If we can accomplish this operaton,we shall have
no hesitation in saying that Jim Grant will whip

we advise Moses to get bank by which ne can

PRINTER TO CoNGREss.-This is still the subjec
of great discussion, particularly the political cir
cles of Washington, and forms the staple of almost
all the political newspaper paragraphiss. Rltchie
and Hess are regarded as the candidates of the ad
ministration; and singuary enough, their antago-
nists are said to be Blair and Rives. Now we can
not conceive any thing more dishonorable, in bu-
sness point of view, the part of Blair and Rives
than either their publication of Congressional
Globe" which they have commenced, or their en-.
deavoring to compete with Rrtrhie and Heiss in the
effort to obtain the support of the democratic party
as candidates tor espublicprntership Just let US
look at the matterfcr a moment under this aspect.
# is very well known that when the change took
place in the Executive organ, some months since
Blair and Rives entered into contract with Ritchie
and Hess to clear out of the Globe and dispose of the
whole concern, for sum of about $4,000. What
ever were the written terms of this contract, there
certainly an implied condition that Blair and
Rives should give the whole field of newspaper Of
ganship to those who succeeded them, in conside
ration Of the $4,000 which was to be paid to them
