The present is the tiiuo to attack this ..uhil evil. II ul wo await-1 c I another year it would line been loo I life ; as 1 1 ; is, tho Senators from the ddlercnt eo-itities whercj issues are now made, nil opposed tho passago ufj the bill. I. Tho Van L5 iren party were opposed to ;art, though they universally supported the it at her bill on its final passage. I hey did noldarodirccttv to vote ngaint it, still if any amendment could bo stuck ou which would hive tho effect indirectly to defeat its passage, you will find them favoring it. They supposa that under the new administration a corrupt, nnd vitiated currency will tend to ajvrtnco their party in power: in , . . - this they do not reason incorrectly, an i over issueot paper currency from irresponsible individuals, and corporations, which must finally fall on the hands ol ignoran: & tho unwarrv,will univnid ibly make new converts to the hard money humbug. Oar object should bo !o give all proper encouragement to good banking institution!,, and thrust nsido lha miserable trash with which the comminity is now threatened. Some of those opoosed to tho measures thought the present bill premature, nnd the better plan to ofTect the object designed by tho bill, was to nuthoriza the issue of mall notes by tho State Bmk. Tpon this objection I enn say, that I favor the issue of small bills by the Bank. The interest of the country demands it, and will doubtless have very much the effect to dm awsy a worse peci of cur-

rer.cy, still-V a miner ui grcji miteiu

lir.ili..r n mai jntv can be found in fi v or cT tie issue by the state bank. The Van Ciren party in the Senate are opposed to the pr. j ct, and some of tho opposition, how many I cannot say, vet a number sufficient to make the passage of a lull to that tff.-ct, doubtful to say the least of it. At all events the passage of the present bill will in my opinion tend rather to favor the other ; measure. But tuppnsc it should not? The . slate li ink will thirtly commence to pay specie, which will put into the hinds of the people the l itter kind of currency, instead of individual pa-j per. In that event small change can be obtain- j ed sufficient for the transaction of ail ordinary j business. )ne thing rnav be said in favor of the issue of small bills by the state IJ ink. The li ink will be enabled to keep a greater amount of its paper a TheVes-ure .f ho tim-s require that an effort should be made to place the measure m the power !of the people to pay their debts, and also an ini creased amount of taxes. The paper itself will j bo equal to Ihe specie, j In haste yours &.c I CHARLES II. TEST. Extract of a letter from A.

T W E.N T V -SIXTH CO yiiil ESS. s i: C O N 1 SESSION'. OurrPa;ioaileiii"c nt lha Ua'lhiioro I'a'.riot WASHINGTON, Fkiovy, Jin. 8, 111. It has been a very prevalent opinion here, that Mr. Bi:nto.t either wrote, dictated, or at least suggested the articles with which the Globe his recently abounded in reference to the men whom it is so fund of parading as likely to take an active part in determining t he policy of the coming Administration, and in regird to the measures which it so industriously gives out, are to bo brought firward nfier the inauguration of President Ilirrison. This opinion is confirmed by the exhibition the Missouri Senator made today, lit; favored us with a mere ritfacimcnto or h:tsh of all tho trah which he h is been nouiing oat on the public through the conduit pipe of the I Globe for some lime past. I Io tiie Congressional report, transmitted to veil, the res lotions of .Mr. Crittenden tor a distribution of the proceeds of the sales of the public land-', and on lite subj ct of the pre-emption policy were given at length. I ask tho particular attention of your readers to ti.fm; for thev will ; unquestionably become the sulj .'Cts of much important discussion hereafter. Bi iitoii started up as soon ns thev were re id, and in a Damhastcs Furioso style which called down upon bun general ridicule, denounced them in sueli terms, th it seieral gentlemen who happened to have read the Globe in the tnnriiinc, recognized the author of lis declamatory twaddle at once. Pulling and swelling with his imaginary' importance, ho went on to m t!;c issues for the 1 1 u rison A bnuiistration, bv asserting that tin purp si; 'f Mr. Crittenden was to create po doht! and to increase tho expenditures of the Govern men: ! ! I'mc. eh irges these, to come from a party that h is never been wniioita public; debt since 1S37 '.he first yc-ar of tiie A Jmmistrai ion and that ( JS iocreiscd the public expenditures only from l; millions to 10 millions! Pretending to infer these issues from Mr. Critj ic;, den's speech, (it was all pretence) he bowed j his thank? to the Kentucky Senator, and sat down j amidst the ill suppressed jeers and laughter of all present . Mr. Crittenden told him, in reply, that he was welcome to all tho advantages he could derive Trom his public declarations. Thinking himself too humble to have others mide responsible for his .' hips too ready to express himself as he thought opinions ana sentiments, ne was ever reauv nerj an J felt Such as his views and feelings were. he was ready to muntain them; and ns to the proposition now submitted he was prepared to submit them to tho country without argument II did not see why the Senator should feel him-, self called upon particularly to give his thinks on1 this occasion fir the Senate and the countryknew verv well that these were opinions he had ! a! ways maintained. Fhev were concurred in also bvn majority ol trie Senate at one time, by whom the Bill lor distnouting the proceeds of the land , sales had been passed. I Since the .Missouri Senator was in sucha view for eivmg thanks, Mr. Crittende.v said he would: go further, and present another claim to his grat-j itude. He would not oniy sustsin theDHTBraij-,'

intvlxto.N roupribiit he would go for laying tases to

raise a revenue to meet the wants r,t the Uoveru-j i mi ni, under an economical Administration. i Mr. Ckittendkn concluded by pouring a fire ofj sarcasm ai.d raillery into the li v pocn 1 1 .al preten-; ders who have had professions of leform, retrench-! jmeni, and economy, on '.heir lips for the lal 1 years, who, after expending millions beyond their I income, and loaded the country with an enormous, debt, now come here, nnd recommend, in iheir expiring moments, the practice ot a rigid economy. The m st amusing incident of ;he day.lmvve er, was that Mr. Calhoun, immediately after Benton's rh odomontaJe about the horrid design ot disinouimg the proceeds of the land s lies among the Stales in fair and equitable proportions ; and after his charge i.bout withholding the products of the land sales from the public revenue that after this display of the Missouri Humbugger, Mr. Cal houn should st.irt up and givo notice ol Ins inten tion to press forward his propos.ton fur an entire j cession to the States of all tho public lands lying j within their limits.

On Sitorday, Mr. Smith of F., Chairman of tho committee on canals and internal improvements, mule a report of great length nnd inter- 1 est. in relation to the public works of the state, accompanied by a bill for the classifi ation nnd further prosecution of the works.

Arrival of the Remain-, of Napoleon iu the j seine. I The Havre Journal gives an account of the enj trance of the remains of Napoleon into the Seine, ! and their passing in front of that port. n Tuesdiy the weather was stormy, and fears wcrecni leriaincd that the passage from Cherbourg would be difficult, but :is night came on 'he wind subsided and the weather cleared. The convoy nri t- ! ved at Havre in the evening nnd remained iu the roaos. At six oVloi k in the morning, th. drums of the Nation . I Guard and ihe gariison beat tin; reveille, and bv half past six nearly the whole population of tbo town and environs were assembled on lhe piers, on the heights, and along the shore, eagerly looking out for the funeral cortege. General attention was turned exclusively to the Normandie. ta...ilo .- maj sue nppcari nt.tr. a"ue rofhn, covered with an embroidered nail and surrounded bv Imbls. was llin m.i aillking id ice t. The sun coming out i it at this moment, added greatly to the effect of the scene. : This j inrnal adds, thai, unfortunately, the nr- ! rangements made for lining the jetties, with National Guards, for firing salutes, .Vc. were eitber rbaillv made or tardly executed, 90 that the Nation al Guards were not present when lhe convoy j passed, an I the municipal and oilier nmhoi ttics i mine ninning to the pier list as th steamers I were going round the end of it. Toe salutes 1 ! wrie not fired until after the vessi !s had passed. It appears that the Steamer which has been i fitted no to receive the rem ains of the Ivniicror i at Uo'jcn cannot be sent down to the liver, nnd is I left at Si. Denis. It was found to cximse lo gri;at a suifacn to the wind, and was too wide and high to pass under some of ihe biidgcs. Tin; I) trade has proceeded alone to Rouen, wbr-ro it will receive the remain of iiioIim.ii ' and bring them ns fir as St. D-mis.

The under carriages, both before and behind, are of a semicircular form, decorated with the four trophies of fiigs taken from different nations. The bier has similar drapery to the pedestal, decorated with the imperial mantle, sceptre nnd crown, and is supported by fourteen figures representing the principal victories of the French. The base of the car is covered with garlands and crowns of immortelles. Over the whole is an immense cmpe o'rapcrv, which hangs to the ground. This prodigious hearse is to be drawn by sixteen horses, dressed with feathers, and housings embroidered in gold, with the arms of the Emperor. The supporters will be three Marshals and an admiral, all on horseback. An immense leniOOrary wharf and a lofty temple are erecting at Courbevoie for the reception of the remains on landing. The officers of the National Guards at Paris have drawn lots for the Legion, which is to escort i i the funeral car of N ipoleon from Courbevoie to i ' the Invalides, and the honor has fallen on the 3d Lprjmn. The 10th will be stationed round the Invalides, and the rest will line the rout of the cortege. The Minister of the Interior intends proceeding w ith the .authorities of the depart. nent of the Seine, to the limits of the department beyond St. D-mi-, on the river, in order to receive the remains of Napoleon with Imperial honors. Two steamers are preparing for that purpose. The Globe says, that 8,0 mote votes properly ipplied and distributed, might have elected Mr. Van Buren. We never hid any doubt that, if Mr. Van B iren had received votes enough he would been elected! It's as clear as mud.
