The Topeka Constitution.

When it Is recollected how strenu-
ously it was insisted by all the Black
Republican journals that the Topeka
Constitution was the only one under
which Kansas ought to live, the pres
ent feeling in respect to it both among
the Free State men in Kansas and the
Black Republican editors out of it, is
deserving of at least, passing COM
ment, now there is general concur
renee among them in the views and
sentiments expressed in the following
article from that we'll known free soil
Kansas journal, Browns Herald OF
Freedom
When Congress rejected the Topeka Con-
stitution, and a formidable party, which had
made its endorsement by Congress one OF
the chief planks in its platform, and that
party was defeated; and the Democratic
party. with its four years lease of the gov
eminent, was imposed upon us, who W ere
known to be hostile to it, then it was
thought proper that we should abandon it
for something practical. 1t was then we
pronounced it igneMs tdtmms, and begged our
friends to follow it no longer, as we had no
further hope Of relief under it, as an adhe-
renee to it would prevent our looking for
relief through another quarter.

The Gazette, Der Demokrat and
Real Estate Register, thought it was.
We did not; we only asked ourselves
what was our duty as public journalists;
what the independent press of our
city owed to its present and future
business, and seeing that we did not
stop to ask whether our course would
profit ourselves or please Cook d Sar-
gent, we took the step and the re-
suit is before US. We venture to say
that it was one Of the hardest battles
for principle that has ever been fought
in this city. We have, SO far, gained
subscribers; gained businessman gained
friends. We have found that indepen
dent honesty in journalism, commands
as much respect as the same virtue
elsewhere. But this is not all. w:
have accomplished very nearly the enc

only about five per cent. difference be

sneeking Editors of the Gazette ant

these movements, our enemies have
failed. The Democrat never stood
better than it does this day. We
felt more courage for fighting worth

interested in such, notice, that from
this time forward we shall keep SHARP
watch for you and permit no more

LETTER OF PRESIDENT CAVE JOHNSON.

The annual statement Of the Bank Of Ten
nesseexss accompanied by a letter from its
Presi3ent-Hnn. CAVE JoHEsoN-which we
transfer to our columns this morning. His rea-
son for this accompaniment is ihus stated
81 The numerous attacks recently made upon
this Institution, well calculated, If not designed
to bring Il into discTedit among the people, 10
whom Il belongs, make it necessary that some
exposition Of its affairs should be made, which
p7osld be more readily understood BY them Than
the Bank Statements"
The letter then proceeds to show that the
Bank has cash means enough, together with
the bondso Of the State and the stocks OF the
Union and Planters Banks, to pay nearly the
whole liabilities Of the Bank, without any ma
tsrisI Interference with the amount doe it on
bills and notes, and that these, when collected,
are sufficient to pay the entire capital stock
Of the Bank and leave a large surplus for the
state.
But, without further reespitulstion, we re-
fer the reader to the letter itself, which repre-
ssnts the Bank to be in the very best condition.
In all this, we can only see a still stronger
reason why the Bank should have set the sx-
ample Of paying specie at its DIVE counter, and
a. the counters Of It's Branches, in the very out
set, instead Of msnifesting q nervous sppre-
hsnsion which has driven it to the contrary
policy Of postponing indefinitely the resumP-
ton OF specie payments. II The Bank IS so
strong, az she is represented to be BY her Pres
ident, she ought to bavs taken the lead and IN
sagurated the much desired reform in Tennes-
see Banking. We will venture to sfHrm that
every Bank in the State that can lay any claim
to soundnsss would have been forced b.. this
policy, into the adoption of the same system,
within sixty days from the date OF resumption
by the State Bank.
Instead OF war, there would have been per-
petusl peace. The Union and Planters Banks
would not have dared, even il they had the dis
position, to have carried on an iniquitous, de-
s~truotivs warfare upon the first Bank that had
made an effort to pursue a policy acceptable to
tue people and friendly to their interests. The
State Bank would have been sustained BY the
whole community, and would have established
a standard Of business which would have CON-
PEELED al the other Banks to conform 10 it or
20 down beneath the wave Of popular disap-
probation and neglect. The people have look
ed 70 their State Bank to take the initiative in
this counter note system, and in all nesdful re-
forms, and they have expected her 70 prove, BY
actual experiment, that these reforms are safe
and profitable, as they are vastly more rsputa-
bic. But tie State Bank has shrank from per-
forming its duty, and has thereby brought down
upon itself suspicioa and distrusts and if is notes
