From the New York Times. We have read with great satisfaction, a very able letter, published in the Utica Observer, from A. B. Johnson, Esq. of Utca, to the Hon. Nathan William, of Geneva, in which the political questions of the day are discussed in a very dispassionate style, and in points of view much broader and loftier than are often met with. We regret that we are unable to insert the whole letter, but some portions of it we cannot withhold.

The following fkctch of the distress time?, and tho use mado of them, U as true n? it is able: Opinions may oilier as to it,e origin 01 the lute trouble, but all must admit that our opponents adopted them as a political weapon. If they ciused not the confli pration, they fanned the flame, and scrambled for plunder. Were tho mischiefs of tho winter an indictal lo offence, 1 aver as o lawyer, and as the best dictate cf my judgment, that few cf our enemies coald escape conviction ns accessaries. Tho cruel acts under which the country uflcrcd,tmy have been commenced with out concert, but they resulted in a daring conspiracy to obtain, by n sort of Sabine rape, the suffrages cf the people. An organized party became as intent to rule or ruin, ns a band of mutineer who should hold a torch to fire the powder magazine cf a fchip, if the captain would not vield to their control. We beheld a reversal of the common principles of human nature. Men rejoiced at their own embarrass ment, and merchant proclaimed commerce at an end. Notes of the most solvent banks were denounced, in the same breath that cried, like Sarah of old, give tis money or we die! Bankruptcy no longer excited pity, but undisguised gratification. The more meritorious the ietim, the louder was the shout of triumph.: The more stable the fabric that sunk be fore the storm, the more diffused became tho exultation. M dignity emulate J death, in its love of a shining mark. While these events were trnnspiring within every man's observation, falsehood und exaggeration filled the opposition newspapers, and made terror and distress epidemic. A s"rtnf friendly cross tire was carried on between distant cities. The North published Ii?s iu aid of ihe panic at the Souih, and the JS ith published lies iu ftid of the panic at the North. A run on banks for specie was recommended, and for tho avowed purpose cf producing ruin. Like skilful inq aisitors, wlv are said to know the parts cf a human body that are most sensible to torture, editors directed the panic w iih equal skill to the banks and individuals which were most accessible to injury. A more infuriated moment no country ever exhibited. Mechanics dismissed their j nimeymeu for exerci-ing a freedom of opinion, and merchants dismissed their laborers. A sloop load of wheat w;s w ilfully precluded a market in the city of N. York, and wilfully returned to Albany. Multitudes of men, under the name cf committees, w ere poured into Washington to intimidate the President, and to debate personally with him on the discharge of his constitutional duties. Legislation in the Congress ceased, aiivl the speeches of the members were directed to the people. Its sittings were declared interminable, and the country was pronounced in a state cf revolution. The friends of iho government wore in every part of the country sought to be overawed and brow-beaten. Even the humble individual who is now addressing you, for presuming, in Uiiea, where ho has lived since he v;is fourteen years oi l, to utter peaceably his thoughts on the passing events, was deemed a fit viciitn to the madness of the moment. Handbills of the vilest character, as I am told for 1 never read them) directed tome by name, were poured over the city and the surrounding towns, to take from me all that lever asked of my fellow citizens their good opinion. Even my house was entered in the. night, and these oflsprings of intolerance w ere scattered around the domestic all:; r, in the faces of nn ffonsive children and fern lies. So sxstcmitie were the cflorts which I have feebly enumerated, so lurious was the onset, and s specially was our State the object cf attack, that great and general jiitcrests eseoped unscathed only by, I s.dcmnly beliec, the majectie eflorts of the State itstlt; which nobly opened Us veins to our cxhau.-'e 1 mouths, and revived ere ! - it at Its cxpiriag gasp; and tins loo, whiie tumult and multitudes, r i venous for our destruction, clamored like disappointed de moos at ihe act, which was snatching us from their grap. Grant even the position of our enemies, that heaven was atlbcting us with w icked ruler?, would men of ordinary feelings have prowled around the country at such n moment, insulting the community with offers of relief oti condition of political apostaev ? Was a period of universal trouble the time to drive so hard a bargain, and did indeed no kinder intentions move their soul at our distress, than to plant their heels upon ournecks! Sjrely they asked too much, when they required that we should accept this calamity in exchange for anv other. They calculated too strongly also on our credulity, when they requi red that the government should le sub - verted by reason t the pressure, and that thcv should be promoted f r designedly and wickedly angmemig it, when, lhc worst which they allege against the government is, that it produced the pressure ignorantly.

What motive shall wc possess fordepos iting our ballots at the polls, if a pecunia rv pressure is our master? We shall be - like the inhabitants of Laputa. They were governed by a king w ho lived in an island that floated in the air. Whenever the people became refractory, the king low ered upon them his island, and the pres sure produced a speedy compliance with his wishes. I even care not whether the Bank last winter produced tho pressure voluntaiily or involuntarily; whether it warred against us offensively or defensively. Enoagh f r us is the fact, that like the enraged elephant which was recently shot at Exeter Exchange th; Bank is subject to j paroxysms, and possessed of powers which render its preservation inconsistent with public safety. Tho showman killed his elephant, though on it depended tho sustenance of his wifj and children; and we must kill ours, bow occasionally soever it may administer to our convenience, and how kindly soever it may employ its huge strength hut especially must we kill it, iaee its trunk i- influenced by our ene mies, w ho have shown that they will wield it for our destruction. From r.'fc American Constellation. Mr. Jefferson said: It is the first duty we owe to the safety of our constitution, to bring this powerful enemy ihe United States Bank to a perfect subordination.11 Mr. Leigh says: 'Iain now deliberately of opinion, that the question will ultimately be, between (not, perhaps, the present Bank of the United States, but) a National Bank, constituted as the present Bank is, in all essential particulars, and a National Bank varying in its constitution from the present, only in placing the direction under the absolute control of the Executive.'' Andrew Jackson says, in reply to the lluntsville committee, August 10, 1831. "We can never yield to the pretensions now set up for the National Bank, or a National Bank, without engrafting upon the constitution and laws, a principle of irresponsible power hostile to liberty, and poisonous to the public morals.1 And Roger B. Taney says, in his Frederick speech: "Yield but an inch (to the Bank) and you w ill be driven to th wall, and instead of the rich inheritances of liberty w hich you have received from our fathers, you will levueath to our descendants slavery and chains the worst of slavery, that ot submission to the will of a culd, heartless, vindictive moneyed corporation." WILL THCV RESIGN? This question is constantly asked in relation to Messrs. So ithard and Frelinghuy sen. We ans wer, NO! They will cling to their offices, and misrepresent the State f New Jersev as long as thcv can. To i misre i instru present the People, lepndiate thir ic.tiitp.-j, auJ contemn their will, is ' oae of the leading principles of the Bar.k ; party. With Mr. Leigh, they do not con.cede tnat the people have sagacity and in telligence enough to take cure of themselves, but must have Kings, Lords, or Senators, to think f -r them. With Mr. Webster's editor m Boston, they think 4iihe imge paws" of the farmers and working people have no business in medling w ith uovernment, which should be left altoirether to rich men and law vers. Why did Daniel Webster lately go from Boston to Concord to attend a dinner given to Senator Be!! i Was it not to honor him for misrepresenting the State of Acir Hampshire for iire years?

Mew. Southard and Frelinghuyscn will resign. They and their associates in the Senate acknowledge no fealty to the Peo

ple. They are engaged iu 'arteolution, not to recover or protect tho rights of the People, but to give a great and rich corpo ration, through its allies in the benatc, ab solute dominion over the Republic. It is a revolution' to establish A NOBILITY, not of Mi, but of WEALTH and POW ER. No; Messrs. Southard and Frclinghuy.scn will not resign. It would be an abandonment of the 'revolution? That they arc nut vet ready to abandon. Thcv will abuse the President through another session of Congress, seek to divide a democratic party, and carry a portion of it for a. Bank, which would be but the Bank in disguise. But they will now find the democracy united against any Bank. The public suffering, the fraud, bribery, violence and bloodshed, which the Bank has produced within the last year, have satisfied them of the inexpediency of ever again organizing and concentrating the money power of the nation. Messrs. Southard and Frelinghuvsen will not resign, but will still have the shamelessness to sit in the Senate "calm as a summer's inoming., From the Village Herald. MARYLAND VICTORY! PHILADELPHIA VICTORY! The Bank party here are crying victo ry! victory ! at the result o the elections in the state ot Marvland, and in the citv of Philadelphia, and we should like them to name the year that thcv did not or when, and by whom, the election of the Bank candidates now running there was considered doubtful. They take good care to say nothing of their overwhelming defeat in the first and third districts, composed of the Northern Liberties, Southwaik, cvc. at the same time. They will not let it bo known that the great struggle was in tho third district, where the candidate run by the Bank party this vear, was, two years airo successful by some 500 or bOO majority and that the Inspectors friendly to his election, have this year been beaten by 1200 or 1400 majority making a change in favor of the administration against the Bank, of upwards of 2000 votes in the last two years. In reference to tho victory achieved in Maryland, the returns are not near all iu and consequently nothing certain can be known, the tollowing paragraphs from inti Jackson papers, show pretty satisfactorily how the elections have gone in tint State for the last tew years. Wo publish ihe ics lit for the last three ears-wecould have gone further back hut believe it unnecessary, tho result being much of the sanu character as those hero mentioned. 1830. From the Xational Jntclicgcncer, Oct. 7 Taken from the Baltimore Chronicle.) We have the satisfaction to announce to our friends THE COMPLETE OVER THROW OF JACKSONISM IN THIS STATE! Never did a party sustain a more signal defeat ! We were confident that the freeman of Maryland would never tolerate the anti republican and proscriptive course of the Jackson administration. They have spoken to Gen. Jackson in a manner not to be misunderstood, and we hope that their voice may have a salutary itttlucnce over his future conduct. " Marvland will never support an adminis tration hostile to internal improvements and the protection of domestic industry. We hive ample cause fr exultation, but forbear! It is a victory achieved Indie good sense of the people over blind infatuation and devotion to the fortunes of a single individual. On the next day but one the 0th of October the Intelligencer, having received the full returns for the House of Delegates, spread them before its readers in detail; showing an aggregate of 01 Natinal Republicans to K Jackson ?

COMPANION TO TCALDIS'S LIBRARY, Before the Circulating Librarv lu.d been long in existence, it was discovered that there was still someth'ng wanting that many occurrences in the literary world must pass unnoticed, as regarded our agency, without an extension cf the plan. To establish a fuller medium of communication and supply the desideratum, the Jour-'.al tf Belles Let ires' was added; which we have reason to believe has affrded general satisfaction. The very liberal patronage exteuded to the Library induced the proprietor to give that gratuously as an evidence of his grateful acknowledgements. More extended experience has shown other desiderata which the 'Companion ! intended to supply. While leading for the Library' a large mass of material accumulates on the hands cf ihe Editor, of an interesting, entertaining, and instructive description, such as would properly come under the designation of Ma-'azimar.a, intersnersed with the Rev iews from the EtuTish Quarterlies. To publish every thing of this

nature which we deem desirable would en- line numucr ci patrons or me -i-iorary-croach V o much on the columns of the Li- S who determine to subscribe. The arr; ngc-

brary' dei.ined for books, and yet to pass them by is constantly a subject cf regiet. To concentrate.-' therefore, the tmblication cf liooks entire. Reviews, lists of new works, tbc choicest contributions to Magazines, c. Sec. the "CinfiunLn to ll'a'.Jn's Library" will be offered to the patronage of the pre sent subscribers and the public at larire. It is believed that with the 'Library the Journal,' and the 'Companion,' such an acquain tance vviih the literature cf the age may be cultivated as to leave- little fuither to be desiied. Be ug all published from the same ufhee, mote facnity tf.i s fur subscribing, and having fewer people to deal with, mistakes are less liable to occur, and more teadiiy col lected when they do.Thc short inter val of two weeks between the puoheutioit of each number, it is thought too, w ill be an advantage over monthlies and quarterlies. The following plan is respectfully submitted. 1. The "Companion will contain the earliest possible reprints of the best matter in the British periodicals. 2. It will be issued every fortnight, and the form will be the same as that of the Library each number containing sixteen pa ges thus, every six months, tri insr thirteen number!!, which can be bound wuii the Library at little or no more expense, and making a better sized volume; and to those who do not take the Library itself, a volume every year, of 416 quarto pages of the size ('f the present. 3, The price will be three dollars for a single subscriber fie dollars for two and clubs of five and upwards will be supplied j at two dollars each. . 4. As the work will not be commenced, unless a sufficient patronage be obtained, no payment is required at present, only the name, sent free of postage. Those wihmg to support the publication will be pleaded therefore to announce their intention as early as possible, as it is intended to commence the work on the first of January next. On the issuing of the second number, payment will be txpt-cted, as its appearance will evince a sufficiency of patronage. The proprietrref the Select Circulating Library,'' full aware from expeiieuce ot the advantages to the public of the rapid diffusion rf cheap and select literature, has been induced to add the above import int feature to the work, and of course leaves it optional w'uh the present subscribers and others to take it or not. It is confidently believed, that, with attention on the part cf the Editor, who has already at hand the material for such a vork.all the really valuable mafer of the English literary and amusing publications may be comprised in this farm at a rate of i subscription and postage, so trifling a scarcely to be felt. It will form the cheap est reprint of reviews and magazines ever attempted in any country; a comparison with others it were useless here to enter up - on. the Library" itself being the best test by which to judge of the di.Tcret.ee between an octavo and a quarto page. It will be the study of the Editor to embody a recoid cf the literature of the day. adapted to the wants cf tliis country, which can hav no competitor for value or cheapness; how far he is likely to da this he must leave at present to the decision of his readers. Clubs of five individuals, who subscribe to the "Library" and "Companion" both, wili obtain the tw o for six do llars; the postage (a very important consideration) to the most

distant post efhee, on the two, will be only I 7ih.

A column for boys and girls, which shall always be s ught ukh avidity, will be crowded into each number, and popular information on science will not be neglected; with such views, the "Companion" will throw itself on the gocd sense cf the community for suppcrt.
