Tho Greenbackis is the child Of Repub-
lican patriotism. Born Of rebellion and
cradled in the conflict, it was the STAG Of
hope and promise of redemption to
struggling liberty. Prosecuted in itsin-
fancy by the Herods and High Priests Of
Democracy, whosought theyoung child's
life, it was jecred for illegitimacy by the
Pendletons; .bufeted fol. yagabondism by
the Vallandinghams; mocked with crown
of rags by the Thurmans, and crIcified by
Copperhcads and parricides on the cross
OF treason; and now, in its re.ascended
estate aud glory OF matured strength, the
bondmen 10 &hom'it gave freedom, the
heroes to whom It gave victory, the.patri-
OTIS to whom 1t restored the country, lave
sworn that its old arch-enemy shall not
cruelty it anew by substituting the wor-
ship OF their spurious god; but, receiving
from gratitude crown Of gold and silver,
it shall reign. Judge Vests Speech al Hand

Editors In.ellIseneSr! ''F. ~ '..''
Inyour issues OF the Sd and 9th insts
were communications signed respectively,
by "stockholdern and Justice" and both
were aimed ut the inconsistency shown by
the ruling authorities at our banks, and
other corporations, in continuing to pay
salaries which were fixed when nearly
every article OF consumption was sold at
double the now current value.
It Isl natural feeling in every man. to
desire some benefit from his capital or Ia
Dor; and when our capital 'was paying
q good interest we had no objection to the
pleas for raising salaries: but now, when
the reverse has come, thenatural sequence
is on our side, and rs we were the willing
