n The Democrat of Friday chuckled very much
over the fact, that Mr.. Buell. from the State Bank
committee had made report in favor of the Morrison
view of the shinpaser law and chuckled still more
that the report was concurre in withom opposition.
Thus" said the Bank Democrat, " has the Senate
concurred in the opinion declared by the President
of the State Bank, that the eristing acs do confer
s. on the Bank, the porer to issue small bills" Nor
did the self-compacency of the Family Organ :"
stop here 1t went on mOdestly to glorify "he head
Of the family" at our expense in this wise
"The public will place just estimate upon the
efforts Of the Chapmans to call III question the legal
opinions of Judge Morrison in the construction of
the law" &c.
But the wind was quite suddenly let out of the
gentlemen who had thus pulled themselves up at the
expense Of others, as usual. No sooner had the
ridiculous assumption of the Democrat made its ap-
pearance in the Senate, than a reconsideration of
the vote concurring in Mr. Buels report was carried
,cithout opposition, and the report was laid The
table!
After such rebuke as this, should think that
Morrison would endearor to display little less of
his hard-faced impudence.
P S.-Mr. Buell's report is in ludicrous contrast
with one on the same subject by him last year. We
may show the matter up by-and-by.

raised in cash. and the first nsalments paid in that
medium he then says in reference to the insalment
of July 30

lively ordered the Secretary of the Treasury make
the payment in specie according to my anterior pro-
visions; that, it, in defiance Of my orders, the pay
ment was made in bills drafts that functonary vi
olated his duties by disobeying my commands, and
the agent Don Emilio Voss not less guilty in re-
ceiving az he received, according what you say,
the amount lii paper. At that same period dictated
in advance, other orders for the successive install
mens with all exacttude, and in ready cash; for the
people having contributed it in cash, resolved and
ordered that the money should not be employed for
any other purpose; and my conversation with the
Minister Shannon, which you mention, allades to
this.
:" In Short in my opinion, the instaments to which
you refer, paid in ready cash but if it is not
