every quarter. Let measures be adopted to have
full vote thrown for the democratic candidates,
10 all parts of the State By SO doing, we shalob-
tain possession of the Legislature, wipe of from
the statute-book the whole list of wing laws, with
their spirit of favoritism and grants of special priv
ileges, and pave the way for great and perma-
nent triumph next year, by the election of DAVID
TOD to the office of Governor, and also the re-
election of democratic Legislature and large
majority of democratic members Of Congress. Let
not moment be lost, but let every democrat be up
and doing. and work as If the result depended on
his individual exertions. In this way we shall win
a victory, and deservedly win it.
Union in our ranks is necessary, II we would
have our principles in the ascendant. Discipline
is as necessary to party as to an army, and with
ont It, all the talent in the world can be of avail
Well-drected action-the parent of all success
is the offspring of union and discipline. There is
not IN our ranks, at this time any dssensions de-
serving the name. All the nominations thus far
made, have been the fruit of unanimous action in
the various nominating bodies. where they have
been the work OF conventions; and when made d.
rect by the democratic people, in primary cleo
tons. not the slightest ground has been left for dis
content. In the body of the party, there is har-
mony, and fixed determination is apparent to ef-
feet reform IN the State, and to give firm sup
port 10 tHe HatiOHdl ADMINISTRATOR. OuueT SUCH
favorable auspices do we combat the enemy, and
it would seem to be almost sin to doubt of our
being completely successful. But we must re-
member that we have powerful euemy to contend
against, ,and who, having tasted the sweets of pow
er, will cling most tenaciously to the places they
now fill--an enemy wealthy, and possessed Of
much social and political influence, not to be des-
pissed, but to be keenly watched and firmly met. Il
is because our foe is of this character, and Is ready
to take advantage of any error on our part, that
union is so necessary. We must present to them
an undivided front and serried ranks. We must
le: them see that our want Of success last year is
regarded by us, not as defeat, but as mere re-
pulse, to be atoned for now by complete over
throw of those who deemed us conquered. Con-
quered! the democracy are never conquered
They krow no such word as defeat. A repulse
but invites them to greater exertions, and to over
throw them is impossible. We shall have new
proof of their energy, and of their power to rise
superior to circumstances in the result Of our Oc-
tober election, unless all those tokens by which we
can read the future ale altogether deceptive.

DEATH OF JUDGE STORY.

Joseph Story, one of the Justices of the u. s.
Supreme Court died at his sresidence in Cambridge,
on Wednesday evening last, after several days Of
much suffering His disease was stopping Of the
intestines, or strangulation, the same sickness
which ended the life of Mr.. Legare in Boston, in
lS43 He was 66 yelrs of age, and graduate of
Harvard University Of the class of 1898. He was
appointed to the Judgeship in the year 1911, dur
ing Madison's administration, and for period of
nearly thirtyfouf years has performed his judicial
service with honor to himself and to his country.
The Boston Transcript, in noticing his decease,
says;-As member of the bar, he has been dis
tinguished for the vast amount Of his learning, and
his thorough understanding of all branches Of the
law. His works evince aprofound judgment and q
varied professional skill unequalled in this country
and wondered at in England, whilst his attanments
in the belle letters have rendered his occasional
writing other subjects universally pleasing and
attractive. In early life he possessed no pecuniary
advantages such in these days are too frequently
thought essential towards future prosperity. OBJ
liged to struggle with small means, and to depend
npon himself solely for advancement, he wrought
his own way BY industry, study, and the exertion
of his natural intellectual endowments, to high
public dignities and to the fortune which made the
meridian and close ofhis life both affuent and easy
Hislaw books have yielded an income of upwards
Of ten thousand dollars, whilst his official stations
as one of the Justices of the Supreme Court and
Dane Professor of Law in Harvard College have
rendered him conspicuous to all eyes as man
whom the public were proud to honor.

CONFESSIONS OF FATHER MILLER.-Father
Miller has published an address or apology in re-
lation to his doctrines concerning the end of The
world. He admits his mistake as to time, but
says that he was actuated by pure motives-also,
that since he was wrong as to time, he can only
live in continued expectation of the event. He
concludes thus
"FOr my indiscretions and errors, / ask pardon;
and all who have spoken evil OF me without
cause, l freely forgive. My labors are principally
ended. shall leave to my younger brethren the
task of contending for the truth. Many years
toied alone; God has now raised up those who will
fill my place. shall not cease to pray for the
spread of truth"
In justly commenting upon the above remarks,
the Evening Journal very appropriately asks

bring back the disordered minds of hundreds con-
sequent upon the teachings Of this ignoramus! sFa-

@ ex-governor, T. w. BARLEY,
in reply to an attack of the Ohio State
Journal, thus speaks Of the Banking
law of last winter:
81 believe the system to be founded upon falla-
cous and dangerous principles on the subject Of
the currency. believe it authorizes a stupendous
and connected fabric of money and credit, calcula-
ted to exert controlling and corrupting influence
over the government of the State, and dangerous
to the liberties of the people. believe that its
connection with the debt of the State is calculated
to give il dangerous infuen the finances of
the government, and to build up an extensive and
controlling interest in favor of the perpetuation
and enlargement Of the oppressive system of State
debt / believe that it authorizes banking upon
principles more unsafe and unsound than the terms
of the old rotten and exploded system in this State
and that it contains effective safeguards, calcu-
lated to prevent the abuses heretofore practised in
banking. believe the law to be so complicated
in its Details subject to such variety OF construc-
tons, and SO artfuly framed that it can never be
understood by the people of the State. And be-
lieve that, unless speedily repealed, it will entail
upon the people of Ohio, all the evils Of iuctua-
ting and unsound currency for many years to come.
For these, and many other reasons, am opposed
to this new-fangled and heterogeneous system of
banking"

nomination from the Wing party; but unquestion-
ably did not receive il as member Of the Wing
party as my address to the electors, had no other
evidence would clearly show. As one OF COM
mttee to draft resolutions for the action of meet
ing of the friends of Gen. Harrison in 1886 that
committee agreed to leave out the name of Mr..
Vance for Governor, because the State rights men
could not unite with the Wings in his support A
Wing [Mr. Eli McNigbtl moved to amend there
port Of the committee by inserting resolution in
favor Of Mr.. Vance for Governor. In few re
marks urging the necessity of voting down this
amendment, I stated that was no Whig-that
never hailed by that term-that belonged to the
State Rights party, and that if the Whig friends Of
Gen. Harrison expected unanimity they must aban-
don the amendment. They did yield and the mo-
ton to amend was voted down, as the published
proceedings will show. This is the sum total of
my Whiggery in 1886, when voted for the dem
ocratic candidate for Governor. Mr.. Baldwin.
Immediately after my nomination in 1887.

ty, in which gave my views of the nature Of our

principles OF that address l am willing that my
claims to Democracy shall be tested, and if ii con-
talns principle Of either ancient Federalism or

That address was published in the Whig press,
and copied in the st. CIairsville Gazette with the
exception of one paragraph [expunged without
my knowledge, by some one out Of good intentions

State Rights and Democratic parties was publicly

INDIANA AFFAIRs

There is at this time an important movement go
ing on among the Choctaws and Cherokees. which
is likely to result in the application ofthose nations
for organization under our territorial laws, prepar-
atoIy to seeking admission into the Union a.

pears from the following extract from the Missis-

ORGANIZE! ORGANIZER!

We would ask of our readers an at
tentive perusal Of the following article
from the Ohio Statesman. Every dem
ocrat will no doubt see the necessity of
being at the polls at the coming elec-
ton. Let boilers and wings know that
the time has n OF yet come when they
can succeed in dividing and distracting
the democratic party; that the people
Of this county are not yet prepared for
whig rule and whig measures. Let the
ticket, the whole ticket, and nothing
but the ticket, be the watchword, and
success is certain. And if any candi-
date has heretofore pledged himself to
abide the decision of the convention,
and now backs out, drop him at once,
as an enemy to the harmony and sue
cess of the democratic party:
THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., AND
THE NECESSITY OF UNION.
The rapid approach Of the day Of election leaves
but small time for preparatory work in those parts
of the State in which it has not already been per-
formed The necessity of IA thorough organization,
so that our victory may be complete, will be ad-
mitted by every democrat; and having admitted
the fact, every democrat should lend his immedi-
ate and active exertions to effect its accomplish
ment. II we can only get our voters out on the
day of election, all will be well, and victory will
favor our cause; for we have voters enough to car
ry Ohio in fair and open contest, as the result Of

From the New York Morning News
We have been favored with the owing admr-
rable letter for publication. The views which
Mr.. Van Buren takes of the dutyof ALL in the pre-
sent position Of the Texas question, are emnently
right and patriotic, and cannot but find re- ponse
in every truly American heart:
"LINDENwALp, Sept 2, lS45.
"DEAR SIR:-I have had the honor TO receive
your friendly letter, conveying 10 me, by its d.
rection, the proceedings of spontaneous meeting
OF the democracy of the 10th and 18th wards of the
city of New York.
!" The just discrimination and patriotic ardor by
which those proceedings are distinguished, do ho-
nor to the meeting, aud are in harmony with the
invaluable principles and past lives Of those who
composed il. ! have read them with great sats-
faction, and do not In the least, doubt that thew
speak also the sentiments Of the democracy Of the
whole city.
"Without more particular notice of the con-
tents Of the resolution, in respect to all of which
my sentiments are well understood. I will content
myself with single remark upon one only of the
points they embrace. 1t is well known that the
preliminary steps taken by the late administration
for the annexation of Texas, did not, under the
then existing circumstances, meet with the appro-
baton of portions Of the democratic party. Yet
you are, in my judgment, quite right 10 assuming
that that measure has been so far consummated un.
der the sanction Of the constituted authorities of
both governments, to render all farther agitation
of the question, or obstacles to its amicable com
pletion by the citizens of either country, unwise
and highly inexpedient. To refrain ftom such
course. is not only in honorable consistency with
hej ustIce and sincerity Of the dissent ing opinions
to which | have alluded, but, under the circum-
stances, the performance Of solemn duty On the
part of those who held them. 1t can scarcely be
necessary to enlarge upon the extent to which the
imperative duty would be increased, should our
country be involved in war with Mexico, IN con-
sequence of the adoption of authorized measures
to carry into full and fair effect the compact OF an.
nexatIon. That no such consequences may follow
is, for many reasons, to be most earnestly desired
But If the result be otherwise, cannot permit my
self to doubt that the administration will, as il
ought, be supported in the prosecution of such
wal by the hearts and hands Of the whole people.
81 am, dear SIR, very respectfully and truly
yours. "M. VAN BUREN.

WEBSTER ON BANKING.

On page 956, Vol. 8 Part l, of Gales
& Seaton's s Register OF Debatesin Con-
gless, Mr.. Webster uses the folio wing
language:
ga sound currency is N essential and indispen-
sable security for the fruits of industry and honest
enterprise Every man of property or industry,
every man who desires TO preserve what he hon.
esty possesses, or TO obtain what he can honestly
earn, has direct interest in maintaining safe
circulating medium; such medium as shall be
real and substantial representative ofproperty, not
liable TO vbrate with opinions, not subject to be
blown down by the breath ofspeculation, but made
stable and secure, by its immediate relation to that
which the whole world regards as of permanent
value. A disordered currency is one OF the great
est of political evils. 1t undermines the virtues
necessary for the support Of the social system, and
encourages propensities destructive of its happi-
1t wars against industry, frugality, and econ
omy; and fosters the evil spirits of extravaganza
and speculation. OF all the conrivances for cheat
ing the laboring classes of mankind, none has been
more ehectual than that which deludes them with
paptr money. This is the most efectual OF inven-
tions to .fertilize the rich mans field, by the
sweat of the poor mans brow. Ordinary tyranny,
oppression, excessive taxation, these bear lightly
on the happiness of the mass of the community,
compared with fraudulent currencies, and the rob-
berries committed by deprecated paper. Our own
history has recorded for our instruction enough,
and more than enough, of the demoralizing ten
dency, the injustice, and the intolerabe oppression
on the virtuous and well disposed, of degraded
paper currency, authorized by law, or any way
countenanced by Government"
On the next page he uses this Ian
guage: "Whether the States can con-
stitutionally exercise this power" (that
of creating banks,) cor delegate it TO
others, is point which do not intend
at present, either to concede, or to ar
gue." What comment on our pres
ent wing system of banking!
