REYrYAI OF a NATIONAL BANE.

While the National Intelligeneer Is strongly
advocating the establishment Of N-d-nAl
Bank, it is somewhat singular to see some Of the
Democratic papers regarding the proposition
with favor. What is more strange still, the
Washington Union, the organ Of President Blu
chanan, throws out strong indications that the
administration have some project Of the kind
under consideration. -
They have as yet developed no plan, but the
following gives promise Of one in due time:
(From the Washington Union Of Saturday,
The'readers of the Union are well aware hat
we have for some time been discussing the evils,
the consequences, and the demoraliEing effect Of
our present system ofbanking. We have salts
fed ourself, at least, that the present system Il
unsound, unsafe, and prejudicial 70 the true in.
terests of the country. e.,
We think that we risk nothing in saying that
this is the public verdict-the true phase Of
public opinion. The popular sentiment is, that
there shall be radical reformation in the press
ent system of banking, and that il shall be re-
placed by something better, and more usefaIly
adapted to the wants Of the country. As yet,
xe have suggested nothing. Indeed, We have
fxed our mind on no particular plan And
amidst the number of schemes proposed, 10 ID
difficult, perhaps, to select that which Is pEaea-
cally best. In due time, however, We shall
propose such plan, as further information and
further reflection may suggest, as combining. ne
greatest advantages for all classes Of men and
occupations in our country.
White Cloud Kansas chief. [volume] (White Cloud, Kan.) 1857-1872, 1858-01-21
LOW PRICES.

The Presidents pet theory is to reduce pri-
ces, and wages must be of course proportionaliy
reduced, so that our country should be no longer
a market for foreigners to undersell us in. Is he
sanguine, that our population, whether psor and
dependent on wages, or rich and relying on pri-
ces for support, will look on with couplacency,
and see this scheme carried into effecti The
bank circulation has not been much above two
hundred millions. This is not large for twenty
seven millions Of the most active population in
the world. Yet, if the plan is, as itseems tobe,
to do away with banks of issue for the purpose
of depressing prices, restriction Of even this
moderate circulation must be embraced as part
of the plan.
How will the country like the rise in money,
which must inevitably take place7 Yet this
must be the direct and immediate effect Of low
prices and low wages, or rather the latter is the
consequence ofthe former. If the times are now
deemed dull and distressing, they will be much
more so then. The complaint now is a restric-
ton of the currency. This is, however. now
somewhat relieved by belief in its temporary
character. Were this state understood to be
permanent. settled policy of the country, depth
of dependency not yet felt or imagined would
paralyze the activity of men and increase suf-
fering.
Should such a revolution in public economy
be attempted, as there are indications that it
will, we don't imagine, that its advocates will
march up openly, and publicly avow their full
designs, and the methods Of accomplishingthen.
Nor do we suppose that the administration, if it
intends to get possession of Cuba, and gain a
preponderance in the Gulf, will advertise the
public Of every step it means to take, or Of all
the agents it means 10 use to bring those objects
about-objects, which were embraced distinctly
in the Cincinnati platform. When Soule and
Slidell, or men like them, shall be seen in mo-
ton, then know, that the designs Swallowed
forth at Ostend, and traced in the Cincinnati
resolutions are not forgotten. And pledges TO
platforms mean anything at all, they ought not
to be observation-disclosures AdUeStiseT.
