A ..MU HLENBERG A NATIONAL MlNli.—Although tire whigs will not avow it, yet it is well understood that the tgreat object of all their struggles to obtain control of the goverranent,is the incorporation of a monster Bank. that will furnish them with facilities to crush the pow er of the people and to make the produCers of the country mere hewers of wood and drawers of water • forth* mushroom aristocracy that would sprilig from the corruption of such an institution, i'Vhen the finan cial affairs of the country were deranged and the curren -cy depredated by the baneful effects of furrier Banks, "they urged the necessity of their favorite for the pur pose of regulating exchanges TIN] to give to the people a safe and convenient circulating medium. A little lime has shown that it does not require a National ;Batik for theme pot poses. No such institution has 'haen oitablished, yet exchanges are now lower than Alley were even during the existence of a Unitrd States Bank, and the currency i 3 better than it was ...ever know to be heretofore. Specie can he had on -demand from all the solvent banks in the country, and all the paper in circulation is received with the :greatest confidence by the people. Every body, but the stock speculators, is satisfied -with the exchanges and the currency, and the whigs led that it would be datieroui to avow their intention. if they get into power, to disturb this prosperous state of things by establishing another monster that will -again fill the country with wild notions of speculation 'such as were created by the last bank, but which re molted in individual ruin to 'thousands, destruction Alf publisconfidence, and ruticra: iisgracethat cannot he obliterated. They know that the recollection of the evils that followed the incorporation of the last National Bank, are too strong in the mind 1 , 1 the pee• pie to permit another institution of the kind to be openly advocated, and the present healthy condition InanEittl matters, 'deprives - the argument of its ne cessity of all force. Under these circumstances, they will not bring the Bank question into the contest; they will rash rot ward the tariff question as u decoy and if by that means they can sneered, then their darling project will be rcri ed, and every other measute will be sacrificed to =l=l It ia idle for the whip to try to make U 3 believe that .there is any sincerity in their tariff' professions. They care nothing forthe measure, and they will sacrifice it at any momekt,if by doing sothe) can advance some of the oth?.r schemes that they dare rot bring before the people. Their candidate for the Presidency has de 3's.,clared himaelfopposel to protection; he does not do! ,mitlara tariff for any other purpose than to raise reven and in the last Congress, many of their leaders— Among the rest, J. Q. ADA3ls.—voted against it, but stuck with leech-!ike tenacity to the project of incor noting a monster Bank. What they have done once thej . :vt ill do again, and notwithstanding all their talk about a tariff, they would willingly abandon it and go the whole doctrine of the free trade advocates, if by so doing they coukl ensure the establishment of a Nation al Bank. Anovnta FORGERT.—The whigs, feeling the ne ' ity of having their candidate well endorsed, are snapping up every casual remark of distinguished men that may be favorable to Mr CLAY. and publishing them as exiiressionsofpublic opinion. Knowing how useful the endorsements of the Clergy were in 1840. they have been trying hard to get some eminent di vine to give them a " favoruhlo expression," and de termining to have it any how, they forged one fur the Louisville Journal, to which they attached the name of the Rev. WM. CAPERS of South Carolina. This went the rounds of the papers for a considerable time. and the whigs were quite elated to think thut it last they had a recommendation from the Clergy for their candidate. But unfortunately for them, in the coaritn of time the forgery came under the notice of the Rev. gentleman whose namn was attached to it. Mr. Carters at once wrote a letter to the Richmond Whig, the paper in which ho saw the forgery, declar ing that it was wholly and totally false, and that be had never used the language attributed to him. HO 'closed his letter with the fullowiog paragraph, which .11light be studied with profit by some of his clerical bren. ' " T am, gentlemen of South Carolina: and there is no liarity of this State mere congenial to my taste -1 -and feelings, or which my understanding more entire approves, than that which makes it scandalous for ~intsters of the gospel to be bandying politics. I had • mortification to hear, some nine,. monthe ago, that political speeches, of the same patty character as the present. and from the same quarter, were imputed to t me;and then exculpated myself (as I hoped) through the Southern Christian Advocate. But it seems I could not gain the tarot' political editors through that channel; and I am therefore constrained. at the present Onto. to request you to publish this disclaimer, as an ant, of,pentonal justice. And extend this request, *tough you, to the Baltimore Whig, the Lcuisville 11;nsal, and other papers who have published the whereof rtminplain."

Mr. Muhlenberg, however, never connected politics with religion, milt° whigs would endeavor to make it appear, and has long since withdrawn from ecclesias tical life. The charge is nevertheless still urged against him, with as much pertinacity as though he were still extacising the fuLctions of a minister. It will doubtless be persisted in until the day of election, for it furnishes the sum total of theobjections that can be urged against him. "TaK BRITISLI WHIG9."—The whigs have got number of pinknifes manufacturetifor the approach ing Presidential campaign, with the name of Henry Clay engraved on the blade. Notwithstanding their blustering about "protecting home industry," they did not suppose that American workmen were competent to manufacture even this electioneering device, but they had to send toEngland to have their Clay pen knives manufactured. This shows how utterly false it is fur the Clay whip to say, that they are the friends of Amer:limn industry, and st : the same time it makes manifee:ibia deep interest British manufacturers feel in the suet:ea of whig tricki. They have -no • doubt received assurances that if Clay should be eleCted, he will "carry out the spirit of the compromise tul," and fur this promise England has probably ueeed to fur nish all the electioneering bawbles that may be required in the . campaign. The Clay pen bare.: are the finrt we believe that have been sent out. Truly the Clay party may well be called "British whigs," when they apply to tho aristocracy of Eog• land to furnish them with their party emblems. 13:7 The American of yesterday contains a long and excellent article against the sale of the main Line. We are pleased to see that the editor is not disposed to make this a party question, and that he has come out manfully in defence of the interests of the state, against the schemes of the speculators. If a few more Whig editors wculd follow• his example, the friends of the sale would make a sorry show next October. HISTORY A few years ago a "Native American Party" was got up in New Orleans, and carried the city by a great majority. The "spoils" were divided, and the party governed the city through a year. The next year it tried again, and received the sumtotal of twenty-six votes.—Tribune. INDEPENDENCE OF THE JUDICIARY The voice of e‘perience—the admonitions of the wise, suggest a union of hearts and a union of minds, in sustaining the Independence of the Judecia ry. Every intelligent freemen, who honestly desires the per petuity of civil liberty, reveres, from principle the del egated ministers of justice, to whom the week and oppressed are directed for support and relief, when— rhlan's inhumanity to man," calls for the intervention of that moral and conservative power in society, which, under a system of checks and balances in our government, is vested in our courts. To a mind capable of appreciating the inestimable blessings we mkjoy as a nation, it must be a source of pain to witness the efforts of n portion of the public press, in this city, to degrade our own courts and the officers Who minister in them, under the silly pretext of sustaining the independence of the press. The freedom of the press is truly our pride and our boast; nor should it be muzzled under any circumstances.— But, then, the community—the sovereign people have a deeper interest in the independence of the judiciary, and its freedom from malign attacks, than in encour aging the intemperate and indiscreet expressions of wounded pride, by whoms.meer made known through the columns of a prers. Invective, harshness, denun ciation or intimidation. can gain no desimllle end.— And public opinion may be mistaken for the casual as surances of vitiated sentiments responded to by n sym pathy of morbid feeling. A virtuous people will ever sustain a respectful veneration for that department of our government, which mustin the nature of civil soci ety, be the last strong bold of liberty, convinced that the opinions ef the writer are better expressed, in re lation to this subject by another. the elegant language of a patriot is subjoined, for the perusal of the nu tier- OUA readers of the •'host." There is, however, one branch of government which we account an unspeakable blessing, and which fur the world we would not say a word to disparage, and we are the more disposed to speak of it because its rela tive importance seems to us little understood. We refer to the Judiciary, a department worth alLaillhap in the state. '%Vhilst politicians extend their zeal on transient interests, which perhaps derive their chief importance from their connection with a party, it is the province of a Judge to apply these solemn and univer sal laws of rectitude, on which the security, industry and prosperity of the individual and the state essen tially depend. From this tribune, as from a sacred oracle, go forth the sacred responses of justice. To us there is nothing in the whole fabric of civil institu tions so interesting and imposing as this impartial and authoritative exposition of the principles of moral le gislation. Thu administration of justice in this coun try, where the Judge, without guard, without a soldier, without pomp, decides upon the dearest interests of the citizen, trusting chiefly to the moral sentiment of the community for the execution of his decrees, is the most beautiful and encouraging aspect under which our government can be reviewed. We repeat it, there it nothing in public affairs so venerable as the voice of Justice, speaking through her delegated ministers, reaching and subduing the high as well as the low, Bet tine a defence around the splendid mansion of wealth and the lowlyhutof poverty,,ropressing wrong, vindica tingineocence,bumbling the oppressor, and publishing the tights of human nature to every human being. To our Courts, the resort and refuge of weakness and innocence, we look with hope and joy. We boast, with a virtuous pride, that no breath of corruption has as yeltaahated:thair Pam air. To this :branch of go varaniedt Itessistnet attach toe much importance—ever this ire eatidot womb tea zealously.

Tsxlso OLD BACHELOfts A:NDJACKASSLS.—There is a revenue bill before the Mississippi Legislature, which lays on an ad valorem tax of 5 per cent upon all gold and silver plate, and such luxuries, and the same tax upon trinkets and jewelry worn by women, where they exceed in value $lOO. Lawyers,physicians, old bachelor's, over 25 years of age, and jackasses, are taxed, and all are embraced in the same sentence, without the intervention even of a:comma. it. was is vain that one yo ang member of the bar protested a gainst the association, yet ho was so patriotic as to declare his unwillingness to submit to any tax!

IMPEACHMENT or JUDGE ELLIOTT.—The New Orleans Picayune of the 7th instant states that the Se nate of of the State, sitting as a court of impeachment, on the evening of the 6th inst., found Judge Elliott guilty of the four articles preferred against him—the majority being on two of the articles ICI yew and 4 nays, and on the other two I I yeas and 3 nays. They then unanimously resolvod that Judge Elliott her atilt with removed from his office. and that it be consider ed vacant. They also unanimously resolved that this verdict should not, nor was it meant to affect the legal ity or validity of the certificates of naturalization issu ed byJudge Elliott. EXPORTS OF ClNClNNATl.—Cincinnati will deserve the cognomen bestowed upon it of the pork city. Some tables published in the Gazette of that city, show that the aggregate amount of !pork and bacon exported from Cincinnati to New Orleans, in five months, this season, was 228,000,932 brls. Of the shipments from New Orleans this season, 162 153 brls. were sent to New York; 78,692 to Boston; 10,733 to Philadelphia: 10,275 to Baltimore; 1,547 to Charleston; and 3,914 to other United States ports; 292 brls. to Cuba; and 12,851 to other foreign ports. 131E1E133 IMPORTS FOR 1343,AND . 18414.

BARRATRY.-STRANGE 'DISAPPEARANCE The following curious story was related to us yester day:—A schooner lately left the port of Sisal, bound fur New Orleans with a valuable cargo of somewhere about $3,000 in value, composed of bales of deer skins hats, cigars, tobacco and other exportable com modities peculiar to that region in the bay of Cain peachy. She had - besides on freight the sum of $6,000 in specie with three or four passengers, the owners of the greater part of the cargo. The schooner having got up as far as the English turn, she then, dropped anchor toawait the turn of the tide, whilst the passen gers anxious to land, took an opportunity of getting in a steamer and came up to the city. Before they left the yeses] they paid the Captain the price of their pas sage $25 each, the latter telling them he should beat up, and prohaby the next day they would meet again. Strange to say, however, nothing more has been seen cf Schooner or Captain; the passenger, the owner of the cargo, after waitingfive days as we are told gave information to the authorities at the Custom House: and an armed Cutter has been sent down to the Gult to endeavor to ascertain what has become of her. It is supposed that the master on getting rid of his pas sengers and finding the coast clear has again put to sea, whittle view of appropriating both the vessel and her valuable contents.--N 0.
