 Opposition To the SuIt against the Bank.
 The editor of the Gazette, the Know No- thing organ of the Real Estate Bank, rests ve- ry uneasily under our expose of his opposition to the sui; of the State against that bank He indignantly denies that he is opposed to it.
 If the editor is not opposed to the suit, why does he seek every opportunity to throw ob- stacles in its way? Why does he complain so bitterly of the nescessary expense attending its prosecution? Why does he labor so indus triously to cast odium upon it, and upon those concerned in prosecuting it? Why all his ef- forts to render unpopular and odious through out the State?
 The truth cannot be longer disguised. The editor is the organ of the Real Estate Bank, and, as such, is opposed to the searching inves- tigaton that it is now undergoing. He is op- posed to bringing to settlement those who haEc had its millions of dollars of assets in charge. He unwittingly betrayed his true posi- ton when he declared that 1t would have been a benefit had the assets of the banks been pub licly burned, and d tax levied upon the people to pay the debt brought upon the State by the banks.
 He is opposed to the winding up and settle ment of the Real Estate Bank. He preferred that it and all its iniquties should have been consumed Ill one common bon fire rather than 1t should be brought to a settlement and made pay its just debts He would rather hat the debt would fall upon the State and that tax should be levied upon the people to pay it.
 In styling the editor of the Gazette the Know Nothing organ of the Real Estate Bank we give him title which, in few words, de scrlbes what he Is. He is the Know Nothing organ of the Real Estate Bank, and as such, has faithfully served those he represents- 1 From the very commencement he has assailed | Gov. Conway about the prosecution of the suit against the Real Estate Bank He has avalled himself of every quibbc to bring the Governor and the suit into disreputc with the people, and he IS now supporting for the office of Governor, Gen Yell, who was jaithLsss lawyer employed to prosecute the suit.
 RICH ACCUsATIoN.-The Gazette last week, charges the Governor with having favor. ed this paper prodigoAy at the expense of the | public treasury. It runs over the various sums paid to the True Democrot for public printing, and, finding them not large enough to strik e the people with terror, adds thereto the future expenses of the State for public printing. The sum 1t adds for future expenses is exorbitantly large, and will never be paid to any journal. 1 Is it not hard case that the Governor is to be condemned, not only for his past acts, but for those an enemy supposes, without any foun- dation, he will in future commit? The Know Nothing organ of the Real Estate Bank, in ad ding up the expense the State has been put to for public printing, knowing the sum not to be at all extravagant, runs into the future, with the most extraordinary calculations to make it enormous
 If there is virtue in the administration of Elias N. Conway, or in that of any other gov ernor, it consists in the fact of keeping the peo- pie we'll posted in all the affairs of the State. The money spent in public printing, especially in printing the acts and journals which com- prise by far the largest portion of the expense incurred by the State for public printing, is not lost. The people ought to be kept famliarly acquainted, not only with the acts and proceed ngs of the legislature, but with all the affairs of government. The Know Nothing order is the first in the State to object to such policy.
