There is a very pretty fight going on among the

nation of Mr.. Banks differentiation, as wrote
you, was really revolt against Gardner, by that

duplicity and of his despotism. say despotsm,
because the fact is well known that Gardner for the
last two years has ruled bis party in the most AFRO

been determined by him at his own good pleasure,
and solely with a view to his own advan-
tape and security. He has aimed with
GOOD deal Of skill. and so far, with complete
success to keep down al who might in any way, at
any time interfere with his ascendency. But the
reins have been drawn too tightly, aud the better
