A National Bank.

"With the whigs United States Bank
has long been an 'obsolete idea.'n
The above statement forms part of an ar
ticle in yesterdays Republic which .occu-
pies ten columns, treats o! things in general,
and promises sequel this morning. In re-
ply, we call the attention of the Republic
to the two following brief extracts from q
published letter of Gen. Scott, bearing date
Of Nov. 10, 1871:
"lfI had the honor Of vote on the oc-
casion, il would have been given in favor of
the land distribution bill, the bankrupt bill,
and the second bill for creating iscal cor
poration-baving long been under convic-
tion that in peace, as in war, some thing ef-
ficient, in the nature of Bank oft Uni
ted States, is not only necessary and prop
er,' but indispensable TO the successful opera
tlons OF the treasury, as well as to many Of
the wants OF our commerce and currency"
Having thus announced hi- political creed,
Gen. Scott, at the close Of this same letter,
holds the following language, which certain
ly uctOts the idea that any part of his creed
can become "absolete:'
FINALLY, / am asked, If nominated as a
candidate for the presidency. would you ac-
cept the nomination. / beg leave respect-
fully to reply--yes; provided that be not
required to rcnoance any principle profsssed
as my principles arc convictions"
Now. will the especial organ," otany 9TH
er organ OF Geneal Scott, be kind enough to
inform us whether the above opinions Of the
whig candidate are regarded by him as obso-
lete? Has he ever retacted them 2 Has
he not declared them to be his convictions,
and not 10 be renounced even IN the event
OF nomination to the presidency?
This being the case, upon what authority
does the Republic declare. after the nomina-
tion OF General Scott BY the whig party,
that, in the judgment Of that patty, q Ma
tional Bank is an "obsolete ideal"
Again: il principle to which the whig
candidate thus fully commits himself beyond
the reach Of remuneration becomes an obso-
lete idea in ten years, then how long will il
take to make his acceptance Of the whie
platform also absolete- seeing that he refus.
ed even to accept that platform before his
nomination, and that he now refuses to ex.
press any appreciation Of i'll Washington

Flying from Love.

Love is a queer thing, and those who be-,
come its victims often cut the queerest kind.
fof capers. Not long since gentleman Of this
city, q man Of business, became enamored Of
beautiful young lady, whom he frequently
visited and found reasons to admire more as
bis intimacy advanced. The, lady received
him very courteously, even tenderly, and az
far as,actions went, expressed a willingness
to become his wife wheneverhe so desired.
Months went by, and the twain were consid-
cred as pair soon to launch upon the mat.i-
monial sea. The gentleman-had grown ex-
cesslyely attached to The object of his affec-

presumed they both would be there. but
when the time came the love-smitten swain
could not be found.
Frequent inquiries were made as to his
wherabouts, bu. no one could give any. in
formation. The party passed off duly, ow-
ing TO his absence, and the lady particularly
felt surprised and mortified at the disappoift-i
ment, Strange to say, the future bridegroom
could not be found in the city, and ideas of
of mysterious murder and abduction pesen-
ted themselves; when about four weeks after
the partya letter was received from the mis-
sing individual, in an eastern city, express
ling his determination toAvisit Europe and
never see his lady love more. He likewise
gave orders for the sale of his property, spoke
most affectionateiy Of the lady and has since
left for parts unknown. This is certainly
an odd termination to a love affair, and in

perfectly sane, and what his design was in
acting SO strangely, will probably never be
oscertained. Gin. Commercial.
