competent and faithful public service without re- wardng her servants for their labor Men of talent will seek employment where their labor will be compensated
 Again. the Banks were not only suspended, but were in process of liquidation, an it was the pol icy of the State to get clear Of as soon as Fossbleto abstract from circulation their uncurrcnt and depre ciaed issues. But if she had continued to take the paper of the Banks she would have been compelled to pay it out again 10 her officers. And thus the financial operations of the State might have been carried on for long years with depreciated paper, attended by all (and Inore) the evil consequences above referred to- Hence the policy adopted by the Legislature. And we do not see that any great evil can result from the new policy, but much good will
 The indebtedness to the Banks is great as before remarked, and the circulation of the Banks quite small, as above stated. It will be gradually, and quite rapidly, we presume, taken in by the Banks, in payment of debts And under an act of the last session, the Banks prohibited from ressuing it and provision is made for burning it. So that grad. uay decreasing in amount, under this system, il will appreciate in yaue whereas if it had been ta ken in payment of taxes, and paid out again, i NoHdd nave OSSn keP diodt upoi tue Cuuluuiity Finally the Legislature were of the opinion, tha very little Arkansas money was in the hands of tht great body of the people, and that it of little consequence to them if the State did not take il if payment of taxes; that the larger portion of hi: paper was in the hands of brokers and money sha refs, class of men who show no mercy to others and who deserve very little themselves. Beside: even they, we apprebend, will not suffer; for they can sell it to Bank debtors for it's current value.
 These, as We have been able to gather them, are some of the reasons that led the Legislature to adop the policy which they did, in reference 10 the above matters We oiye them in their defence, in justice tc them, and the crcdit of the State without intending to say how we would haze acted personally in re- ference to them, had we have been member 0 the body. And in conclusion, we would have th' EAGLE bear in mind that what would be wrong un der some circumstances, is perfectly right undel others, because it is the best that can be done In some things the Legislature were compelled toaya themselves of the old maxm-eN NecesSitas non ha5e lepem"

MIR. BENTON-TEXAS

The following sensible article from the DAILY KEYSTONE, in reference to Mr. Benton's new Bill for the annexation of Texas, which we publish to day, expresses our own sentiments on the subject very fairly. Mir Benton has become Q clog on the wheels of the Democratic Zion, and deserves to be dropped as soon possible. He has become us stubborn a mule, and goes altogether by contra res. Though once powerful giant in the demo- cratic ranks, he has become a man of straw-a sow of sedions, perverse in his deeds, and dis posed to play into the hands ol our opponents, the opponents of Texas, and the enemies of the South -oi the Union
 BENToN's ANNEXATION PRoJEcT-As the earnest and fearless advocates of the iRnse- diate remuneration of Texas we enter oul protest against the bill introduced by Mr Benton into the United States Senate, for the annexation of Texas, as calculated to de. feat that measure at the present time. Wt hope the Senate will reject the bill, and pass that of Milton Brown, which passed the House by such large majority. The Plebeiar justly remarks that Mr. Benton's blLdoes no bring Texas into the Union, but simply pro, vides that the Texan territory may be brought lbbp tiIC Ollou ttS SOOli do llc terms ana con- dlilons of annexation may be agreed upon by the two Governments. Negotiations must be entered into between the two Governments and the bill appropriates Sl00,000 to pay the expenses of the negotiations
 M cannot have immediate Annexation by this bill. Suppose that it passes, and that the President appoints diplomatic agents to mee and negotiate with similar agents on the part oi the Texan government, long time will elapse before the negotiations terminate. even Il they are successful. The questions of sla- very boundary, and all other collateral oues- tlons will be involved in the negotiations and 1t Is not to be expected that a few nego- tiators can settle all of these intricate oues- tons more to the satisfaction of Congress or the treaty-making power than Congress oi the treaty-making power can settle them.
 We do not sec much to be gained by the passage of this bill We do not get Texas by Ii until Congress or the treatv-maiino power gives it to us. The result of the nego- tlatlons may be submitted to Congress, and Congress may not ratify them, and in the meantime Texas may he lost. Congress. or the treaty-making power may, according to Ar. Benton's bill, admit Texas sometime hereafter; but if the bill passes Texas is not annexed. If the bill of Mr. Brown passes. as soon as it is approved of by the Texan Con gross, Texas will be in the Union. If Mr. Benton's bill passes we must enter into nego- tatlons, and some future Congress is to ratfy or reject them. The result of the passane of Mr. Benton's bill will be a virtual postDone- ment of the measure for long time, if nol forever. The bill of Mr. Benton is antago- nist to that of Mir. Brown, and whatever may be the motives of Mr, Benton, the effect of It's introduction, we fear, will leopard the success of the measure.

CONGRESS-

Our latest news from Washington is to the llth ot February. The Senate had not taken up for dis cussion and final action either the bill for the Organ zation Of territorial government over Oregon. ( r the Resolutions of the House for the admission of Texas They had been engaged on the Post olice Bill the disposal of the Smithsonian Fund, French Spoilations and other subjects. which though in- Portant, are of minor importance when compared with the great questions first mentioned The nre sent session of Congress will elosa in few days From this, and we beginning to have but little hopes Of the passage, by the Senate, of either nf these great measures. The Wings have fnai3riff in the Senate. Ifthese all important measures fail they must assnTedy b. responsible to the Amarican people for the consequences. Ii tie Housr. where tie Democrats have thenaioy!ty .he questions have been promptly actsd upon, aad adjusted in sccor dance with the expressed Nil oI the nation.

 \ man more worthy than myself.

IL is inc hypocriica man who is democrat only for the sake of office, who will abandon the party when he is disappointed. We say to such unsound pretending Democrats-go-we have too many of the true grit to desire you Give us the man who falling in the batle rises to rub and brighten his nor for a new contest-who disappointed in getting an office, goes to work to make himself more wor- thy!
 dj~ To our friends who are applicants for office underline new administration. we would say, if you are disappointed, recollect that all cannot be oilice-holders, and that disappoint- ments are the common lot of all mankind. Let not your temper be rufIled, or think that you have been badly treated if others succeed over you; and, above all, let not your disap- poinment change your party relations. Our county presents her full number of applicants for Marshal of the State, Receiver, Foreign Stations, &c., and some must be disappointed. To them we would say, be of good cheer: your time next.
