Major Jack io-v nine's CORRESPONDENCE. To my old friend Mr. Lki ighi, of the J'raiork Duily idv: rlutr. Washington, 8 March," I-S34. Ever since 1 wrote loyou about them

assassinations and brimstone and murder letters, I have beenlookinon tosee

how our folks are to work their way out!de,und. 1)13 b:,l,k he ,s wliged to keep

of the scrape they have got'Ae - C?OTer - mcntm, and I did'nt mean to say anotlier word ahout it. But as things ai

did?nt take place I must quit, for Ar.d the gineraf was con6iderabIe struck up when 1 talked of lenyin on him. and he asked n.e where I was goin. Well

savs the mineral, vmi are ch.-.n,ri vr politicks. Well says I, gineral it may D , j 0... T . be so, for a mar. may as well change his teeth, says 1, if by keepin his old set he can get nothin lo bite with 'cm. And now, says I gineral jest lets ?ou and 1 look into this Experiment of younilr and see where it is goin ta land us, for . o 7 says I, if 1 dont miss m guess, we shall turn heels over head to rights, and there is no tellin which end will come downe first. And 1 dont see, says I, what good is to come ou'l even supposin we come down feet lirst. How, savs I. are we goin to satisfy this jverlastin batch of folks with all their little children who are note tufferin all about the country by this plagy turpi nmmt? xou might as well, says I, try to make folks believe it will be all the better lor em hereafter, when they git used to it, to take ofl their shoes and stockinsand go bar foot now, and tell em that s the ony way, so that in war time every man will he ready to march and not bother the country to provide shoes and stockings for em. And its pretty much so now with this plagy no bank Experiment. Folks have got a notion that they can't git on without banks; and they know too there must be a good strong one to regulate all the small ones, jest like the balance wheel in a watch, lor without that, sas I, the little wheels will all go viz, and break all to bits, and you II never know the time of day no more than a sun dial will tell in a snow storm. And then, says I, to talk about hard money and that there must'nt be no other kind of V T .1VJ money. Why, says I, you might as ) well tell the lolks to go back to shoe buckles agin, when a good bather string is lighter and better. Now sunpose, sas I, a merchant wants lo send money from here to New Orleans to but cotton or to China to buy ten, and v imposing, says I, a old Revolutionary Soldier livin away back in the country sent here for his pension, and was too old to cor e for it himself, how then sas I would we manaee to eit th s monev in the safest way possible ary to New Or leans to buy cotton, or to China to buy tea or to the hands ol the Uld Soldier. If you send hnrd dollars,sas I, in a ship and she sinks its gone to all etamity, and if the pirates take her its worse yet, and it you send it by mail, Major Harry, would have to make some Worse contracts than we have already. This stumps me considerable, and I have been lookin into it ever since this bank war begun, and the ony way, says I, is to have a bank that every body has confidence in. and have it as strong an all natur and known every where, and then we can git all round these storms and pirates, and labor of luggin hard mony about. And we do nt want no bet ter bank than we're got now to do all this if we ony let it alone. And the iiost proof that it is strong enuf, is that with all our hammerin at it we haint hook an atom ou't,. and the more we fight agin it the worse it is for the peo ple who want the money this bank owns, and the hank wants to lend its money, for that is its business, and when we tell the people lhat Squire III d die is the caue ol inakin money scarce they know that's nil ninkum fid dle. Now says I suppose you was appointed to defend the country agin an enemy, that was corning here from abroad and the enemy was say 10,000 men, and they would nt tell you where they were going to land; but you was obliged every week to tell them where yor men was; why says the gineral I'd go right Idown to New Oilcans and whip tm jest as I did afore ; but suppose says I they wodn t go there agin, but kept dodgin about along the coast from one eend to tother how then says I; then says the gineral I d rail out evrv man in the country, and I'd have 10,000 men in evry fort from New Orleans to Downingvillc; well Fays I, that 1 suppose would be the ony way, and if it was in harvest time it would be bad work for the crops jl could'nt help that

says the gineral, I'd defend tha countr'stor about this old hen .and a,ho M

thro thick ad toin; well rays thatV pretty much it hut Swjuire I' ": '; arter, he don't Unow a here we uAtud lo

And with, that, the gineral got wrathy and tell'd the niggers to cut away, and down went the trte, right across the orchard fence; and says the gineral iftherakoon aint there, go on and cut down the apple orchard, till you find him, and the niggers kept at it, but - . , . . ... ?,ore U,V cul a?w,nmany irees l"e 'a farmer larnt wisdom: he come to the gineral, and tell'd him he was right arter all, for the rakoon wasjist where he thought he was, and he had jump'J . it .

Now, nays I, gineral, what was your notion; why says be. major, if I had'nt done jilt so, it would a gne all round the country that I knowM nothing alout rar koonin; and its jilt so with the hank, if I give up my notion now, folks will say I know nothin about bankin, and aforeI'll do that. I'll break eviy man in trade from ne end of the country to the other. I'll let folks know afore I'm done, that Andrew Jack sou knows as nuch of bankin, as he does of rackoonin. Well, say I gineral, 1 dont see'bow you git sich notion. Nor I don I nother. major, says the gineral, but it has always been my way when I git a notion to stick to it till it dies a natural death and the more folks talk agin my notions the more I stick to em Now says I, gineral, that was a pretty good story you've been tellin, and I'd like to tell you one and. the gineral he fill'd his pipe, and I began: A. pell ago. says I, my old grandmn'tbef Danforth by my mother Hide you know, says I, gineral, my mother waa a Danforth and so I tell d the gineral as far as I Could nil abaut the whole Danforth family, and gittinf that strait, I got back agin to my old grandmothn Danfnrth well, says l, she owned aa old hen that wat one of the coriests critter that ever clurkM. This old hen was never remarkable fur lain egg but she was a master hand in hatchio on em my old Grand mother Danfoiih ned to keep this old critter nlwnvs busy , and as fat as she hntrh'd ont latch she'd stick under her another it got so r last all the other fowls about the plac would come and tide themselves in al"R d' bis old hen and lay their eggs in her nest; some, times geepe. sometimes docks, and some, time dunghill fowl it Hantumt, it ma! no odd which: Ihi old ken would hatch em nil out, and wn just as tickled evry mornin wrn-n the young ones would crawl oat Ihe nest as though she had laid tke egg herelf and was all the whit ruf fled and rumpled, and ready for a fight and so I tell'd ths giaeral a good long
