The New York Courier anl Enquirer de-
nounces the absurdities ofthe Subtreasury and
depicts the mischief it does. The money mar
ket and the currency, ii says, are put By il un-
the control of Mr.. Walker, and the power he
has under it is too great for any one human be-
ing, The Courier says:
The atsurdity of the subEpasury system is
daily witnessed in the cariing from the banks
10 The custom-house and baCh again the ldenli-
cal dollars and quarter dollars and dimes which
are paid out at the banks 10 their customers.
The loss of time and the labor and expense
of this extraordinary and unnecessary move
ment of specie fall heavily upon our merchants.
Frequently a clerk is obliged 10 stand several
hours in order to pay his duties, ind must,
when his turn is come, wait until the gold and
silver is counted out piece by piece, BY the
Subtreasurer or one of his clerks. lfperchance
one or more of these pieces should not be
American coin, he is sent back To replace them,
and must again wait his turn ere he can con-
clude his business So, in the ca Sc Of the pay
ment of the semi-annual interest on the public
debt, are the drafts on the Treasury We have
known old gentlemen who were obliged to
wait al the time of the payment OF the SIX
months interest several hours; and we know
of case where one who was entitled to thirty
five dollars half yearly on his stock, was oblig
ed to stand three hours before he could receive
his money.
Besides the individual injury il innicts. il
is of more serious injury to the money mark~t
At this time the payments TO the custom house
for duties are large, but the payments. by the
Government are slow, and the accumulation
of nearly three millions of dollars, most of il
taken from the banks, is serious and alarm
ing evidence of the power of the system TO dc
levitt. TI
.The money market is contracted in-conse-
quence, and the stocks of the United States
fall under the pressure"
The Courier then dwells upon this curious
mode of locking up nearly three millions IN
specie, in Subtreasury vaults. when the use Of
lit is needed for the business of the community

sition, that Mr.. Van Buren, will take OF only
one third, or about so, 600 OF the votes cast for
Mr.. Polk, aud two thirds or 10000 of those

argument, that 10000 Wings may vote for
him, although it is believed that not 5000
will. the figuring up would be as follows:

Thus giving the State TO Taylor BY more
than $4,000 majority over Cass, and more than
10000 over Van Buren,. There are those,
however, who believe that Van Buren, will
poll more votes than Cass. lie might have
done it Immediately after the assembling OF
the Buffalo Convention; but it will be more
than likely, that by November, even the abo-
iiionists of New York, viii be sick of their
