There never was a jester view of the consequence of the Banfcing i?ytcm amnn the Farmer, than that given in the following article from the Nw York Kvc ning Post. The temporary luxury an 1 ostentation which "Bank facilities" produce among the ephemera! gentry who became borrowers, is a sad temptation to the thri ving, industrious farmer and his family. Bat liks all temptations, which reduce in tho shape of Uessing?, unearned Ly labor, the bounty of banks is sure, in the end, to lirovc a curse : Globe. Till; FARMERS. The most strenuous exertions have been made, ami are still making, to enlist the farmers in the groat cause of monopoly. Every artifice of delusion ha been tried to lead them to the support of tho paper currency. They have been told that they have been enriched by the increase of this currency; that the price of their land, of their labor, and the products of that labor, is enhanced by the establishment of Banks in their neighborhood; and that nothing h mor.i conducive to their prosperity than to borrow money and pledge their firms to the- Paper Plutus. Let us talk this matter over a little .with them. 1. Wc lay it down as a principle that the holders of the land being originally the po3?cs5or3 of a vast portion of the real property of a nation, nro always the first to be affected injuriously by the creation of any imaginary representative or substitute lor real value. The products of labor constitute this real value, can be exchanged for this real valuo, as in the case of paper money, then it must be apparent that the privilege of making and issuing such rnmey confers a power gradually to monopolize all, or a great portion, of the real property of the country. Tho man who exchanges his property and labor for what is neither property nor tli3 fruits of labor, must always make a losing bargain in the end. In fact, both theoretically and practically, the nature and operation of rach a paper system as ours, is to exchange rags fur silver and gold; lands, and houses, and labor, for promises to pay. Such system can only be carried on at the expense of the farmers and laboring classes, who have always something of real value to exchange for this imaginary value. They lose the reality in grasping ot the shadow. U. The value of land, instead of bein enhanced, is injuriously affected, by the investment of a vast capital in money and promises in stocks and paper, which would otherwise be employed in agriculture, but which is now devoted to speculating in ttocksofall kinds, and ins become a great gambling fund. Instead of conducing to the wholesome prosperity of the country, by being applied to the cultivation of the land, it has become the instrument of enriching a few already overgrown capitalists, and a few needy speculators, or rather gamblers, at the expense of tho ruin of thousands. . The farmers arc also injured in another wav. by the operation of the naner system, which takes a largo portion ofthe - i i i capital of the nation out ot the reach of taxation. When this Government o wed a hundred millions, and issued stnrk to our citizens to the whole amount, all the properly invested in that stock was exempted from taxati jn. In tho Bank of the United States alone are invested thirty -five millions of dollars paying none of the taxes to which tho property of other citizens is subject. Djcs it not follow, as a eonsequence, that the litter must pay so much the more, and that the additional burden must fail on the products of the land and of labor. 4. Neither tho land, nor the products of tho land, have risen in their prices inconsequence of the vast increase of paper currency, except in the near neighborhood of rail roads, banks, or growing towns and cities abounding in banks, and consequently in speculators. Ecn here, every sudden rise has been followed by as sudden a (iOpression, and where one man is tcnefitcd a hundred are ruined by the reaction. In almost every other section ofthe country, w here the farmers are out of reach ot tnecenentsoi meso unorox t-ioi.-in?, ir. u .i r .i . : i- .. ; : nre a large portion ot them, the result ot the paper system, the land and its pro- ! ductssofutiomr.smgjjavcactually laben within the last ten years, when wc take, intoconsidcrc tion the oepee.atcd value ol j money, which is always ,:i proportion to ; its scarcity or plenty.

the present state of things receive no ben efit and suhsr all the losses. luis euaftitutum of large note for small ones may easilv be so brought about as to be scarcely felt, except by tiic fungu3 aristocracy of paper money, which h is so long fattened on t!i2 rank corruptions of the system. There cannot be the smallest doubt that the moment a vacuum is created in this country, by the diminution of paper money, it will bo instantaneously filled to the brim by the influx of money from Europe and South America. - 0. The capitalists of Europe stand on tiptoe to replace our depreciated paper by silver and irold. Tho interest ot money is so much higher here than in England and II lland,tdiat nothing but the great paper phantom prevents enormous expor tation of specie to this country. I he increasing want of confidence in the permanency of their institutions and governrnent, and the increasing confidence in the permanency of ours, is another inducement for tho investment of capital in this country. Every day the wealth and the arts of tho old are finding their way to the asylum of the new world; and the period is not so distant as may be supposed, when the wealth, the arts, the sciences, and the power, which have been travelling from List to West, ever since the creation oj mankind, w ill pay their visit here for a few ages, ere they pass on, and perhaps return again to Asia, by the samo route by v. hich the aboriginals of the soil came to the new world 7. There is no fear that we shall not be able to procure, at the shortest notice, as much silver and gold as are requisite for all the purposes of life. No country on earth has such vast and valuable staple commodities to exchange for msncv, and good money will pour in upon us the moment there is room and employment for it. It is a busy, bustling devil, and must be employed, or it will go somewhere else. It will come fast enough; for experience has shown that nothing is more pernicious to tho prosperity and happiness of the farmers, and indeed every class of people, than an unbounded ease and facility in borrowing money. The benefits of bank loan of paper money, if benefits they are do not extend to tho firmer. Loans, to be of any service to him, must be for years, not months. His means of payment are slow, aod occur t ice a year at tho utmost ; while the bank loan must be renewed, and iho interest paid, every sixty or ninety days, or anew note given and tha interest added. mi . i HiU3 tne candle is lighted at both ends, and all can judge how long it will last. 8. The farmer must rie early and work late live upi n brown bread and salt pork, and dress in home-spun on Sundays, in order to pay seven per cent, for his borrowed money. The consequence of a bank loan to a firmer is, nine times in ten, nav, ninety-nine times :i a hundred, irre t trievable ruiii. He is cheated with the idea of paying only six per cent, per annum, payable in advance, every sixty lays, is fully equal to seven paid annualv," and a loin Ire I times more inconven ientto the farmer. Add to tins, that the bank interest must bo paid on a certain dav, whereas, in loans from indhi luals, lie same intlexib'o puu'-tuility is not required, and wc shill then see clearly enoiHi why the old system of burrowing was i.ir pivienblc to U new, so far as it applies to tne farmers. 9. The neighborhood of a country bank operates to the er.coua jemont of a degree of luxury highly perm -i u:s to the happiness and prosperity of the farmer. A fj v miserable Lank dependants set the example; for none are so extravagant as those who live on the money of other people. New houses spring up ;new firniture makes i:s appearance, and ihe njw serip nobility go to church in fine coaches with glided harness and framing steed-j The farmer, on the contrary, must still live in his old weather-beaten house; bo content witii bis old homely furniture, go to churJi in ins country wagon, ami drink hard cider, instead of old wine, unless he too consent to become a bank dependant. 1 he wile, too, j ten to one. puts him out of conceit of his v " u, toihcs by abundance of curtain lect.lrcs abo.;l tho finerv f Mrs. Spriggins Mfs j.; and finally he too goes pf a, His cmhQcwue, m ml lhc tv of tho Bank aaJ ;h(? ,,cxt vo hcar of hjm he is ouhisuav o Mi5,0:lri, Arkansas.

Frcn Chalauhrianl's Memoirs. FUTURE DESTINY OF THE WORLD Europe is hastening to democracy. What is France but a Republic, fettered bv a Dictotor? Nations have outgrown
their swaddling cloths; they have attailed their maturity and pretended that thev have no longer need of guardians. From the time of David down to our days, kings have been at thehead of our affairs; it seems now to be the turn of the people. The short expeditions of the Greeks, Carthagenian and Roman Republics do not change the general fact ot the political state of antiquity, viz: that monarchy was the established condition of society all over the globe; now, all socie ties abandon monarchy' such as we have hitherto known it. The symptoms of the social transformation abound. In vain do we attempt to reconstitute a party for the absolute government of one man; the elementary principles of this government arc not to be found; men are changed as well as principles. Though facts sometimes appear to oppose each other, they nevertheless concur towards the same result like the wheels of a machine, which turning in opposite directions, produce a common action. Sovereigns by gradually submitting to necessary liberties, by detaching them selves without violence, and without shock from their pedestal, might transmit to their descendants, for a longer or a shorter pe riod, their hereditary sceptre, reduced by the laws. France would have more calmly ensured her happiness and her indc1 t. l. : i ' i ij U UL Tl F , , TTT . .. u..u uap .i JU,y u ime.uuiuecepuon; out noooay unuer-

The countries least prepared for liberal institutions, such as Spain and Portugal, are impelled to constitutional movements. In these countries, ideas outstrip men. France and England, like two mighty battering rams, shake by their reiterated blows, the crumbling remparts of ancient society. The boldest doctrines on property, equality, and liberty, are proclaimed morning and evening, in the face of monarchs, who tremble behind a tripple lino of suspected soldiers The deluge of democracy is gaining upon them as they ascend from story to story, from the ground floor to the roof of their palaces, whence they will cast themselves into the waves that will swallow them up. The discovery of printing has changed tho conditions of society ; the press, a machine which cannot now bo broken, will continue to destroy the ancient world, till it has formed a new one. Printing is the creating word of all powers; the word (ia parole) created the Universe; unhappily the word (le Verbe) in man partakes of human infirmitv;it will mingle evil with good, till our fallen nature shall have recovered its original purity. Thus tho information brought on by the ago of the world will take place; every tiling is calculated on this plan; nothing now is possible but the natural death of society, as at present constituted, which must lead to its regneration. It is impiety to contend with the angel of God, to fancy we shall arrest the designs of Providence. Beh dd from this elevatod point of view the French Revolution is but a small part of the general Revolution ; all in patience ceases, all the maxims of ancient policy become inapplicable.

From thc American Almanac, for IS31 GREAT ECLIPSE OF THE SUN. The most remarkable of the nh.-nmmp.ri that this year (1631) will happen, is tho Eclipse of the Sun, on Sunday the UOlK November. This is the third of the very uncommon series of five large eclipses visible to us in the short term of seven years: the 4th of this scries will take place May Loth, lloo, and the last, September 19th. oS. The eclipse of the present year, will doubtless receive great attention throughout our country. In those places where its magnitude will exceed eleven digits, much diminution of the li"ht is not to be expected, even at the time of the greatest obscuration, perhaps, however, it may be sufficient to render visible the planet Venus, then about 30 deg. E. S. E. of the Sun, and much nearer the earth than usuaK Nor will tho obscuration be vcrv t whcrc lhe eclip3e u a7n05f totaf the at hero of the carh he darkness can hardly with strictness be considered total, even when the sun is completely shut out from the sight. In the great and re markable eclipse of June 10th, 1800, when the Sun was totally obscured at Boston. for five minutes, as much light remained as is given by the Moon when full; and a greater darkness wilf not probably be ex perienced, in any place, on thc present occasion. Throughout the United States, however, a great depression of the thermometer, if placed in lhe sun, will probably be noticed; and for some minutes before and after the moment of the greatest obscuration the power of a lens to produce combustion, by condensing the solar rays, will be quite, if iiot entirely destroyed. At the time of the Annular eclipse of February i2th, 1S31, it was observed by the editor lhat thc thermometer in the sun, fell from 73 to 29, and that during the continuance of thc ring, no sensible effect was produced by placing its blackened bulb to the focus of a powerful burning glass. This eclipse, as will be seen on tracing the path of tho centre, will be total in a small part of the Territory of Arkansas, and of thc Stn'cs cf Missi-sippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. Thc principal places in which tho obscurity will probably be complete, are Charleston, Beaufort, S. C. Savannah, Mil'edgeviile, Tuscaloosa, and Little-Rock. Tho great est duration of total darkness in any place will be at Tuscaloosa and Beaufort; these places lying near thc central path. At Charleston and Savannah, the duration will be considerably less; the former being situate about forty miles north of this path, 'he latter about thirty south. Tho width of tho line of total darkness varies in its passages across the earth, but in tho United States will bo about one hundred miles.

Mr William Pearboncl thi ritv l,.., r mencccl an enterprise which we reu'.Iv thh.fe wtat. i . ii gieai success, it is a publication which, iu the shape of a quarto newspaper or ma-az;nct is i:itc:.c!f d tofunibh thc public with a copy cf a great r.cn.Lrr cf the most approved and elegant wctkscf English literature. Thc pubiicaiiia cc;itaius 16 pacs quarto, ai.d is somewhat larger than t!u Lci.don weekly n.ajazints. Thc paper on w hich it is pi sated is net mcre'y bcautiful to the eye, bu: it is of the very bets quality, and sized, so that one may w rite en it without blottinjr. The typography is Li or.ee neat and legible; and the whole style cf thc execution has far mot e appearance cf London than New York. To show the reader at w hat a cheap rate a library may bo procured through the means cf this publication, we may mention that the first num. ber contains the w hole cf Mackenzie's Man of Feelintr, and a fourth part of Goldsmith's icar ot U akeheld; for all of which thc price is sixpence. From what we know repecthg this novel and laudable enterprise, we have the greatest confidence that the selection of works fcr thc Republic of Letters wilt always be submitted to thc decbic.i of gentlemen cf such standing in literature, as to ensure that only thc worthiest productions w;!l find a place ia it.

To those who are not apprised of the plan upon which it is conducted, it is merely necessary to observe, that it is :i week!y issue cf a beautiful printed quarto sheet, at six cents a Lumber, each number containing one or more octavo volumes. When it is added that the 'Man of Feeling.1' and the 'Vicar tf Wakefield. two cf the finest classics in our language, mav thus be had fir thc sum cf 1J cents, it will Lc seen that, both from the true taste ur.d liberality wiili which it is cioducttd, there can be no publication which promises better to d'tijsc abroad a knowledge of thc model j ( f polite literature than tr.c Republic f Letters.
