The Missouri Journal says:-"For
our own part we believe that The fed
cral constitution has deprived the
state governmentsofthc power which
they would otherwise possess, with
out any constitutional grant Of such
power. Of passing any 2..artcr Of in
corporation for the purpose OF crca-
ting 4 circulating medium"
Stick pin there. say we; & ifyou
absolutely think 4 state bank uncon-
stitutional, we hope YOU will rot be
guilty, Of helping by your vote, to
tasten n upon the people of the
state. If you believe that the icde-
raj government has the right 10 pro-
hi'it the states from making banks;
and hat the trainers Of the federal
constitution intended to exercise. and
actually dill exercise thatri.hi; then.
surely, you cannot conscienliously
vote for Il state bank: nor should YOU
vote for any one who you believe
would vote for the charter of such
an institution. 1t Is not right TO do
that indirectly which you think
wrong TO do directly. Yes, if you
think, that the trainers Of the federal
constitution, intended that the gene
raj government should exercise the
power Of prohibiting the states from
making state constitutions, then You
may maintain your idea Of the con-
stltutlonaIity Of a state bank with
some degree of FEASIBILITY; Dut you
should favor the circulation OF herd
money only.
The fedora! constitution does say
that "no state shall! emit bills of cred
t." This no doubt, was intended to
prevent the states from compelling
he circulation OF any thing so worth.
rs the old continental bills; and
prevent any difficulty that might
from one states diScrediting the :
bills of another. But lest this clause
be evaded, and its object de-
Gated, they inscrtc! another, more !
,%cneral, and designed to cover the
Whole ground-nor SNAKE any thing =,
ut gold and silver a tender in pay ,
nent of debts." This we think looks
cry much like the trainers of The fed
raj constitution were hard money
len; especially when we look in vain Y
trough that whole instrument, for a
clause in favor Of the crea- '
on of any kind OF paper money. 6

The Charter Election Position of Parties-Stramss
Operations in Business-Great Fire, &c.
Yesterday the charter election took place in this
city. and resulted in the reelection of the present
Wing Mayor and city Marshal, by about 200 ma
jofity The Democrats made no nomination for
Mayor, but gave their support to Judge Morse,
stump candidate, fresh from the whig ranks
The Natives, after the most tremendous flourish Of
trumpets and the aid of the ablest conducted Jour
nal west of the mountains, polled about 500 votes
This IS large, considering the population of Gin
cinnati ls cniy 75.OO The entrc vote polled was
about 5000. The wings also elected majority Of
the City Council.
John Brough and Samuel Mcdary, the democra-
tic party OF Ohio, are so busy ut work in taking
of the democracy at large, that the local mat.
ters Of the State are most awfully ndgiected.
whilst Alfred Kelly and Judge Wright, the whig
party OF the State, are interestingly employed in
preparing the new Bank law for operation. They
have an uphill duty TO perform, and il "coming
events cast their shadows"I should not be surpris
ed to see the people take some of the State power
into their own hands, and hur the big string pulIers

An alsrminr fire broke out at nine O'Clock this

ia this city yesterday by the parade of several mil
lary com ,anies.
