It, at a moment of simultaneous and unexpected suspension by the "tanks,! addJ something to tho-many embarrassments of that proceeding, yet these are far? overbalanced by its direct tendency to produce a wider' circulation of gold and silver, to ii.ciease the safety of

ri i i"ui- i'"-- general currency, ana inns to prevent altogether such occurrences, and the other

; and (ar greater evils that attend them.

M may indeed, le questioned, whether it is not for the interest of the banks themselves that the Government should not receive their paper. Thev would be

conducted with more cautior, and on sounder principles. By using specie only in its transactions, the (jovernment would create a demand for it, which would.

to a great extent, prevent its exportation, and, bv keep-

iny u in circuiauon. maintain a uroa.ler and satcr basis for the paper currency. That the banks would thus be rendered mote sound, and the community more safe, cannot admit of a d nibt. The foregoing views, it stiik to mc. do but fairlv carry out the provisions of the federal Canstimtion in

relation to the currency, as tar as relates to the public revenue. At the time that instrument was framed, there wore but three or four banks in the I'ui'.ed StatesanJ had thl extension of the banking system, ami theo ils growing vut of it. Imtii 'foreseen, they would prob ubly have Ik.ch specially g inrd.-d against. The same policy which led to '.he prohibitinn'of bills of credit bv the States, would d.r,li.!.-ss, in that event, have also iiiterJictcd their issue as a currency in any other form. The Constitution, however, contain-; no such prohibit;flj and incH tho I'W.v have cv.-ieised, for ' nearly half a century, the power to ngnla-e the business of

ready deposited with the Slates, would be more incon

venient and less efficient. To burden the country with

increased taxation, when there is in Tact a large surplus revenue, would be unjust and unwise; to raise mon

ies Dy loans -under such circumstances, and thus to

commence a new national debt, would scarcely be sane tioned by the American ncoole.

The plan proposed will be adequate lo all our fiscal

operations, uurinc tlie remainder of the vear. Should

it be adopted, the Treasury aided by the ample resources of the country, will be able to discharge, punctual

ly, every pecuniary oblige too. l or the future, all that is needed will be that eaution and -forbearance in appropriations which the diminution of the revenue requires, and which the complete accomplishment or great forwardness of many expensive national undertakings renders equally consistent with prudence and patriotic liberality.

Whilst the objects and means proposed to attain them are within its constitutional powers and appropriate duties, they will at the same time' it is honed, by their necessary "operation.

After 1 J ballotings Mr Allen, Editor of the Madisonian, a new administration paper, was elected jo inter to the House of Kepresentati ves, ly a majority of 12 votes over Ulair Rives of the Globe. A Washington Correspondent says the message is not well received by any in that quarter, except ibe collar men. It i? said the session will not last more than six weeks.

The Commencement, (for conferring degrees,) takes place on Wednesday next.

There are now in the Treasury nine millions three hundred and sixty-seven thousand two hundred and foul Icon dollars, directed by tiie act ofthc 2.'Vl of June, l!33d, to be deposited with Mates in Octolcr next. This sum. if so deposited, will be subject umler the law, to be recalled, if indeed ; to defray existing appropriations ; and as it is now ev ident that tho w hole, or the principal part of it, will bo wanted for that purpose, it uppears most proper that tho deposile should be withheld. Cntil the amount can be collected from the banks, Treasury notes may be temporary issued, to be gradually redeemed as it is received. I nm aware that this course may be productive of inconvenience to many of the States. Relying upon the nets of Congress which held olit to them the strong probability, if not the eertninty, of receiv ing this instalment, tliey have in some instances adopted measures with which its retention may seriously interfere. That such a condition of things should have occurred is much to be regretted. It is not the least among th unfortunate results of the disasters of the times; and it is for congress to devise a fit remedy if there be one. The money being indispensible to the wants of the Treasury, it is diflicut to concevc upon what principle

Fellow Citizens: Through the medium of "The Post," you are informed that I am a candidate for ibe office of Justice of the Peace, to fill the vacancy of Joseph L'augh, resigned. I would just name as a reason for offering myself before you, that owing to misfortunes for the last live or six years, over which I could have no control, I am not in as good a condition in a pecuniary point of v iew as 1 would wish, to be. If I should be the choice ofthc voters of the township, I will endeavor to discharge the duty incumbent on me to the best of my abilities, and also, I would feel it my duty to keep the office somewhere within the limits or jurisdiction of the township where it would be most proffitablo to me and convenient to you.
