Savings are frequently attributed to the National
Intelligencer which the National Inteligencer has
never uttered. Errors Of this kind, being generally
accidental, and harmless besides, we usually let
them pass. They are, however, sometimes Of con-
sequence, and deserve more serious notice. We
find the following, for example, in the " Washing
ton Union" Of yesterday
GA HARD HIT.-The National Ineigencer, in passing
eulogy upon te in which Mr.. FILIAoRx hss been

the genuine meaning ofit."
The Editors of the National Intelgencer have
never used, at any time, the language imputed to
them in the alleged extract; much less have they
OrUr vxpressed, Ia any terms. the sensimrnr which
the Cincinnati Enquirer has extorted from tha,
language.
It's quite possible that, in some Communication,
which has obtained place in our columns, the Ian
guage quoted may be found. But. If so, common
sense, well as common charity, would have
given to IT fair rather than forced construction.
The death Of that great and good man, Gen.
TAYLOR, was certainly "a dispensation Of Provi-
dence," and dispensation as ''extraordinary'' as
lamentabe. The good fortune of the country has
been that wise forecast had, in the selection cl
the second officer of the Government, secured, in
the event of vacancy occurring by the decease oi
the President, an able and most worthy successor
to him.

1t is common saying that this is great coun-
try I; but the time is come when the word liberal
should be substituted for great. The last arri-
val from England informs us that, during the week
ending 18th September, there had been very large
arrivals Of !" specie,'' which had made the money
market much easer and first class bills were rea-
dily discounted below three per cent per annum.
Now, as it is well known that this country fur.
nished nearly all the amount referred to, is il not
proper that we should boast Of living in liberal
country? We, good-natured fellows, were not sa-
tisfed at seeing the rate of interest in England
three per cent, and the rate here from six to ten
per cent; but in order to accommodate John Bull.
we shape our revenue laws TO reduce the rate of in
terest with him below three per cent, and raise it
among ourselves to fifteen per cent. for first class
paper. Fifteen per cent. for such paper is now las
reported) the lowest rate in the city of New York,
and other paper is fully at from twenty to twenty
five per cent per apnum, and large failures occur
ring almost every day. As we elevate the fortunes
of old Johnny at the expense of Brother Jonathan,
in all time to come we must style our country the
most liberal on the face of the globe. as SCI
If our gold continue to leave us in such large
quantities, the rate Of interest in London will be re-
duced to two per cent. per annum, whilst we may
have to pay thirty per cent. per annum for money
When we reverse our system, interest in Lon
don will rise, and in New York fall to old rates ;
and then we shall be prosperous. ID.

Much dissatisfaction (says the Baltimore Ame-
rican) has been created among the Wings of the
Eastern Shore of Maryland in consequence of the
nomination Of Judge of the Court of Appeals for
the Eastern Shore, by the Eastern Shore members
of the Wing Convention, which assembled in Bal
timore fortnight since for the purpose Of making
nominations for the State al large. The difficulty,
however, we are glad to learn is being obvated by
the proceeding which has since been fallen upon,
and which is indicated in the following paper:
To the Wings Of the Eastern Shore According to the
consent Of Judge EccLEsroS, in his letter to Mr. Colds
borough, and according to the wish Of Judge
friends is agreed that the meetings in the respective
be held the lth Of October next to elect Delegates
Eastern Shore Convention, to be held at Eason on
the 18th Of October. -

Eccleston will retire IL the Convention shall nominate Judge
