meet the demands of the government in the prose
cution of the war, has, it appears had the effect
which might have been anticipated that is-it has

Gomez Farlas and the present Congress. Blood had
been shed; and, according to the last advices, it
was considered doubtful how the matter would end

Now as to what the people may think of the
several articles which in the opinion OF the editor
of the Argus are likely to be objected to, we know
not That they are as true steel on the subject
of Banking we believe but ifthe editor to say
that they are as true as steel in favor OF the bank
article contained in the Constitution, we beg leave
to differ most decidedly. 1t is fact which the con-
test DEVELOPED that that article OF the Constitution
was universally condemned. And Of those who voted
for the Constitution in this region, tourftths OF
them did it. with mental protest against that fea-
ture. We believe that that defeated the Constitu-
ton, for as imperfect as were the other features
they were vet democratic and might readily have
been moulded into shape but the bank article in its
restrictive anti-free trade character had nothing
democratic about it. and excited universal opposi-

of law to build up these soulless corporations they
feel perfectly able to take Of their own bust

II At the town meeting on Tuesday, the 9th
inst the citizens of Southport voted that money
should be raised for Common School purposes the
coming year. The ground of this decision was that
it would be better, in the first place, to raise means
for erecting suitable school house. No means, how
ever were voted even for this purpose-but we trust
the matter will not be LETT long thus. A move
ment should Immediately be made to secure the e.
rection of a School House. Whatever other
interests of the town may be neglected, its educa-
tonal interests should certainly not be permitted to
