FROM THE GLOBE. Ttc lYrZijfrl Intelligencer 1ml the ISank. It was as imnortant to lhn Rink- to sns-

!anm tIieir. oli iendas to purchase new ones. 1 ne 1 ele??raDh would have lost half lts value to llie purposes of the aristocracy '. r K T . i.i i j sink under the burdens its political apostacy rind the extravagance of its Editors had brought upon it. The funds of the Bank hive, therefore, been poured out in almost countless thousands, to sustain this totterinw establishment. The National Intelligencer, founded by Samuel Harrison Smith, was long the organ and the pride of the Republican party. The correctness of its principles, the talents of its Editors, the prudence of its management, and the confidence of Mr. Jefferson gave it a standing and circulation, perhaps unequalled by any republican paper. The people patronized it with unexampled liberality, while Congress and the Executive Departments showered upon it unbounded patronage. We do not doubt, that the receipts of the establishment from Congress, the Executive Departments, and the General Post Office, ever since the accession of Mr. Gales to its editorship, have exceeded A MILLION OF DOLLARS, and yielded a net profit of at least TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. To this have been added the profits of an extended cir culation, an abundant advertising custom, and innumerable jobs of private printing. What became of the princely fortunes wmcn tne JbcJ:tors ot that paper had made out of the American people and their Goveminent? We revolt at r.nv HSr.nion whicli involves the concerns or habits of our adversaries, which are purely private; but it is our duty to warn the people of a melancholy fact, which threatens the ruin of our institutions. An extravagance of living, dissoluteness of manners, pomp, show, and parade, accompanied by gambling and every other vice of a foreign nobility, have been introduced among those who draw their support from the public Treasury at Washington, dangerous, alike to the morals of our citizens and the purity of our government. In this giddy whirl of dissipation and display, which the rough hand of reform has now, we fear, but temporarily checked, were scattercd and thrown away the hundreds of thousands which the Editors of the Intelli gencer had made from their business; and the civil revolution of 182S-9, left them not only without the means of pampering further their luxuries propensities, but probably more than a hundred thousand dollars in debt! What was to be done ? For such princes in pomp and luxury to return to plain habits, and live like the republican people of this land, was intolerable. Nor could the moderate profits of a private business, without free access to the Treasury of a nation, meet in any degree the inordinate desires of a corrupted taste. Some scheme must be struck out, some plan devised by which they could again thrust their arms up to the elbows into the money-chest of the people. The design hit upon was a nronosition to Pe th . rCongress to reprint the old documents of tnat body from the origin of the government. At the session of 1828-9, a resolution to that etiect was introduced, proposing to bestow upon them this job at a most extravagant price, wihout limit as to cost or quantity of matter to be paid for, not by a direct appropriation, but out of the contingent fund of the House of Representatives. The most effective means were used to procure its passage. Pathetic appeals of the most moving description, were made to the Jackson men to induce them to vote for it, not becaus- it would be of any material use to the public or to Congress, but to save from me-vfification, and perhaps distress, these English shoots of a mock American nobility. Although we are sorry to say the good feelings of some of the Jaccson man induced them to yield to these appeals, the resolution did not then pass. What the printing would have cost under that resolution, those who proposed and advocated it took no pains to inqure. Green, we believe, estimated it at more than a million of dollars, half of which would have been a clear gratuity to those friendly printers. J . After the close of the session in 1S29, they issmed proposals for printing the old documents at $5 25 per volume, merely to iorm a basis for a renewal of their apolication at the next session of Congress.-4 The Tusoititton was accordingly introduced into ise Senate at the session of 1829-30, and by tsKing advantage of the absence of a few republican Senators, Mr. Gales' friends, :rust it through that body. When the Senate became full the subject was, however, reconsidered, and the object defeated. Oreen, the present co-adjutor of the In-tci:-?cncer, declared that 2 50 per volume x;r.s mi ajunoant price, offered to give bond and security for the execution and delivery of the work at that rate, and averred that all A'or wonlJ be a mere ?ratuitv to tl, ,;..! tion:l Repuuhcan Church, by the Rulin. i.f.itors at Washington, we suppose they Wid receive h'.s assertions as good authority.

A GRATUITY, c of Ae .iWic cof rrn rPMr,-'ri ,,.C.,,NnnrN THOUSAND DOLLARS!!" The proposition was renewed somewhat modified, at the session of 1S30-31, and in the vexation and confusion which attended the defection of the Telegraph and its trends, near the close nf tho adopted. The amount which, as finally adopted, it will take from the Treasury, will iiui, u is believed, lull short of $120,000 yielding a nett profit to the printers exceeding FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. ihe National Intelligencer was already last number we showed, bv extracts from the uju "uurcnasca presses." jn our United States Telegraph of 1830, that it was "not a free press." A few weeks ago we should have hesitated to copy the Telegrapn as good authority for anv contested fact; but the National Republicans at least, can question its veracity no longer. Their Committee at Washington, Messrs. Z. C. Lee, J. . Bradley, D. A. Hall, A. McCormick, and C. Prysc, as well as their Editors generally, have vouched for the Editor's veracity, by recommending his Extra to the patronage of the people. By their witness, so vouched for, we prove that the Intelligencer is not a free press, but is one of those which he declared, in 1830, were bought un by the Bank. 3 1 How heavy the golden chain was which bound that establishment to the Bank in It. X. ?e nae. no mca"s of ascertain in sr. icon .... i . aics exnibiled evidence himself ttit ue nad paid the Bank in property, subsequent to the 4th day of March, 1829, the sum of $30,213 58 in part payment of his liabilities. The late Committee of Investigation disclosed the fact that there were $10,995 due from the Editors to the Branch Bank at Washington, being a balance of the old debt. The passage of the resolution, giving them the printing of the old documents, afforded no immediate relief. No money could be had from the Treasury until a part of the work should be completed, They could not wait. Resort was had to the Bank of the United States in Philadelphia, and without any security but a lien on the proceeds of that work, when they should do it, they had procured loans at the time of the recent investigation, to the amount of $21,375! Let us review the conduct of the Bank, so far as it is developed towards this greedy establishment. At the moment the National Intelligencer lost the public patronage, its Editors were indebted to the Bank more than $10,000, for which a considerable amount of property was mortgaged in the City of Washington. That property was advertised for sale, and the Bank bought it in. We are credibly informed, and verily believe, that at the sale the Bank bid against itself, and run some, if not all the property, up to twice the price it could have been sold for to any other bidder. Certain it is, that one gentleman at least, who attended the sale for the purpose of purchasing, left the ground and went home, under the perfect conviction that the Bank was purposely running up the property beyond its value. It is not believed that any other purchaser could have been found who would have iven $20,000 for that which the Bank bid in at upwards of $30,000. This sale, therelore, was but a contrivance of the Bank to make apresent to these favorite Editors of at least TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS. By the showing of Mr. Gales himself, he was not icilling to p3y his debt to the Bank; for he had to be hired to secure it according to his ability! On the 11th Sept. he addressed a letter to the Cashier of the Washington Branch, which contained the following question, viz: "What amount of moneys has been loaned to us by the sid Bank since the 4lh day of March 1829r To this question the Cashier answered on the 13th September "The only loans made to you since that date, were as follows, viz: 785 dol lars and 58 cents to pay olTincumbran ces on property previously deeded to the Bank, and 500 dollars on the 13th April, 1830, to induce you to grant us a further lien on said prcpeity." This correspondence, published by Mr. Gales himself, proves that the Bank wanted further security for money already lent to him, and that they had to pay him for o-irii it by a new loan of $500! Was the man willing to pay the Bank who had thus to be hired to secure it? Would not he, who would extort money as the price of girina security, avoid the payment of the whole debt if he could? Is it usual for the Bank to show particular favors to men who resort to such means to extort loans? Time rolls on. The Committee of In vestigation in April last find the Editors of tne intelligencer indebted to the Bank as follows, viz: Old debts at Washington New debts at PirdudJlphia $10,995 21,375 32,370

The following is the account which President Biddle gives of these debts, viz: -The debt at Philadelphia, has arisen thus: They are appointed by Congress, to print a work of $reat extent, and nave to provide materials for executing it until Congress makes appropria tions. These appropriations are to be received by trustees, and their accep tances of the drafts of the partie?, in addition to the personal security of the borrowers, form the security of the loans. The debt at Washington is understood to be the remainder of a large loan paid off by them, and is secured by real estate." The trustees adverted to, it is presumed, gave only conditional acceptances. They

accept the drafts, payable out of "the appropriations" for this work, when they come to hand. Whether any thing ever comes to hand or not, depends wholly upon the Editors of the National Intelligencer. If they never do the work, ihe appropriations will never be made. Nor is it perceived, that there is any legal obstacle to their revoking the trust, and demanding the money at the Treasury themselves. All the security the Bank has, at last, is "the personal security of the borrowers themselves" the personal security of the men whom they or.ee had to hire by a loan of $500 to give them a lien on their property! Is the Bank not afraid they will have in the end to hire these Editors, by additional loans, to let them receive the appropriations? But admit that the Editors will not be so dishonest nor so hard run, as to induce them to seize on the appropriations themselves, is it usual, let me ask, for Banks to loan money upon a pledge of the future receipts of the borroircrsbusincss ? Can a merchant borrow $20,000 of the Bank of the United States, without endorsers upon a pledge of the moneys he may thereafter receive as the pro ceeds of his sales? Can a mechanic borrow money without security upon a pledge of the money he may receive for his future labors ? an a tarmcr borrow by pledging the money he may receive a year hence for his crop yet to be made? Such a proposition would be laughed at by the Directors. Yet, what less have they done for these favored Editors? Have they not loaned them $21,375, upon a pledge of the proceeds of their future busl ncss and labors? Why are they and their brethren in opposition, Webb and Green, made the objects of special favor? Can any one mistake the moti ve ? is to make them the instruments of the Bank. The course of the Intelligencer for some months past, has been marked with uncommon bitterness. In the violence of its invective, and the falshood of its assertions, it has scarcely been excelled by the Telegraph itself. There is something so unusual in its recklessness, something in its language so unlike the courtier-like effusions of Mr. Gales in times past, that its readers have thought it in a state of desperation. We attribute it to a different cause. Since the Committee of Investigation finished their labors, the Editors have received trom the Bank another TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS! This has made them extravagant. This new favor can be repaid only by redoubling their efforts to defeat the re-election of General Jackson. Hence all their labor, all their falsehood, and all their violence. Eight formal numbers, and innumerable irregular articles, which, for duplicity and cunningly devised imposture, have no parallel in the vilest opposition prints, have in part repaid this new obligation! Letjus now see what this Bank, so zealously advocated by the Intelligencer on account of its b nefits to the people, now has on loan to the Editors of that print Old debt at Washington, 10,995 New debt reponcd by Com. 21 ,375 Debt since incurred, 20,000 $52,370 Thus are these favored Editors indebted to the Bank of the United States FIFTY TWO THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY DOLLARS. There is a remarkable coincidenc between this sum and the loans made to the Courier and Enquirer of New York! But the amount at which certain property has been set off to the Bank, in part payment of these men's obligations, has not been received by that institution in active funds. To show the real amount of money now outstanding on account of accommodations to these Editors, the price of that property must be added to their existing debts. Existing debts, $52,370 Price of property set off to the Bank, 30,243 $S2,G13 So that in accommodating these faithful editors, the funds of the Bank are out to the amount of EIGHTY-TWO THOUS N1) SIX HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN DOLLARS! Was ever a Bank so accommodating? ' The bare amount of these loans is enough to startle the American people; but when it is considered that they are made in violation of the rules and usages of the Bank in relation to the residence of the borrower? and the security, and at times when the Bank has been hard pressed and curtailing its accommodations to the people, it i enough to rouse their indignatiou. What must they think of dl the arguments of the

Intelligence in favor of the Bank what of all its vituperations of the patriot and hero who has saved the country from the dominion of this monster of corruption? Will they not consider it like tho praises the slave bestows upon his master, under the lash of the overseer? Dare they lisp a word against their lord and master, whose 'olden vaults" turnish them with their daily bread ? Must they not obey Nicholas I. the Autocrat of the Bank, with as eager fidelity as the Russian serf runs at the bidding of his Autocart, Nicholas? Must they notpraise whom he praises, abuse whom he abuses. 1 Ml Ml c .

auu especially vuniy and degrade Andrew Jackson, who has aimed so deadly a blow at the root of all these horrible corruptions? But we forbear. The country can now appreciate the zeal with which the National Intelligencer urges the cause of tho Bank. It is not to sustain an institution which shall diffuse blessings to the people, but to save a princely monopoly which is able to pay in loans and gratuities oi'tens and twenties of thousands, those venal men whose pens it buys to deceive the people, destroy an honest President, and perpetuate its power. From the Pittsburgh Mercury. CORRUPTION. S.80. TREASON AOA1XST TI1K TllOn.!:! On tho ground, at the election for Inspector yesterday, it was generally stated, that the editor of the Bank 'Ad voc.Ttn' biil re ceived, through the Post Offim in ihU nUv upwards of FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS! from Micholas Biddle, President of ihe ihe Uni - ted fetatcs Bank. The renort Jitinnnrs lr have originated in the following way. A gentleman named Wilson called at the office for his letters, when one containing Mr. Riddle's check for $5S0 was opened and the contents not being intended for the individual who opened the letter, it wa3 returned to the post ofiice as the property of James Wilson, editor of the Pennsylvania Advocate. The friends of the bank may now proceed to explain their transaction. Mr. Biddle has a right most undoubtedly to give to whom he pleases out of lus private purse, and yet we can scarcely believe the gentleman would draw so largely upon his individual liberality to support a newspaper in Pittsburgh, devoted to the sustaining of the piesent English Bank, aud a mcnied aristocracy among us. The question is reduced to a limited point. Mr. Wilson, the editor, has received nearly SIX HUNDRED dollars from Philadelphia, for publishing a bank paper, and Mr, Biddle, the President of the United States Bank, sent his draft or check for the money. Now, whether the bank has advanced the amount out of the contingent fund, or whether the British agents in Philadelphia have clubbed the amount , is of little importance. The money is received, and die sovereign people will regard it as another effort on the part of the bank to bribe the eduor, muzzle the press and overthrow the liberties of ihe country! Freemen! To tho Polls! TREASON against the Republic has been committed. Wilson and his press may be bought but the Sovereign people cannot. Will you be inactive while the enemies of the country, and the friends of a liritishfimk aristocracy are buying up 'hirelings' and transporting them from one state to another, to support a privileged class of bank directors, who have millions in the field to buy up Traitors to the union! It is a fact whicli can be proved beyond dispute that the above letter was received by the editor of the Pennsylvania Advocate. We understand that Wilson has acknowledged to a citizen of this place, that the money and letter was for him, but he alleges that the money enclosed Was for subscriptions to the Advocate!! If the persons remitting this money had known Wilson as well as we do, the half the money would have been considered ten times as much as he is worth. When they make him another remittance we advise them to direct to James Wilson, alias Bruin, and it will be less likely to get inio other hands. Raleich, N. C. Sept. 20. Awful Conflagration We stop the prcs3 to announce that our city has been visited by another distressing calamity. At one o'clock yesterday morning, a tire broke out at the store of Mr. Richard Smith, which destroyed every building on that square, fronting Fayetteville-strcet, with the exception of the Bank of Newbern, which was preserved with great difficulty. Nearly all the houses burnt were occupied as stores. Most of the dry goods, except those in the store of Mr? Richard Smith, were saved; but a large portion ot the groceries were destroyed. The oooks and the records of the oilice of the County Register were conoumed. Further particulars next week. Elections in Pitxxsvlvama.- Yesterday's mail brought 113 tho returns from the Inspectors election in Philadelphia. The Anti-Jackson ticket has succeeded in thirteen wards out of the fifteen with an aggregate majority of 1501, where they had chimed a majority of 30U0. The Clay men as usual were in their ecstacies.

Ciictvr.A Dr. Edward Tegart, Inspector General of Army Hospitals, has addressed a letter to the London Globe, on tho subject of Cholera which appears to bo of tho utmost importance. It detail? Hs own enso and cure: "On Wednesday, the lSlh July, I waj seized with a slight diarrhea, which continued and increased on the day followmg; the matter discharged was passed without pain, so that I was thrown off my guard as to the nature of the complaint. Towards evening of tho second day, I become restless and feverish; at midnight my pube was i'J0,and very weak; spawns in my legs and arms led me to think, for the first time, tint 1 was laboring .undiT Fpasniodic cholera. On examining ihe copious flowines frun lha bowels, 1 found lh m to consist of a limpid fluid, resembling chicken broth or barley-water. This is now understood to be the serous part of tho blood; when this escapes,' only the thick daik particles remain in tho blood -vessel, which soon become stagnant and occasion death. Th:s was nearly tho case with ine, a ibe pulse had become almost imperceptible, and tho dark streaks in tho lines of tho vein?, and the color of tha skin, denoted that the state of collapse was fust approaching. The question then was$ can a new action be produced in tho intestinal canal? Yes, said I, it is pass i Lie, and I will try that remedy which I have so strongly recommended to others, in this diserso. I took three drops of croton oil on a littla sugar, and confidently waited the effects. The following took place in succession: In '20 minutes the stomach was discharged of an immense quantity of undigested food f the liver, which h id been distended to a most painful degree with bile, poured its contents into the intestines; the grueliy discharge from the bowels was now iurceedcd by copious evacuations of bile and otllnsivo matter, the cramps ceased, and the pulso' rose. All these favorable occurences took place in less than an hour after taking tho. croton oil, and I pronounced myself out of danger. This is my case, and 1 hope it may prove an important one to ihe public, as it may led to a more successful mode of treatment than has hitherto been en '.ployed ia this disease." India va. For the satss-fltcllcn of our friends at a distance we can state with coniidence, that out of fifty. five counties in the state, Mr. City can net li.pe to receivo majorities in more than t,:n.
