paperlc print it upon, and no.mOnhy to

times; but nothing but money Or paper
rags Will buy paper, and we cannot be
expected to 'parout cash endlcssfy with

ready made every reasonable-effort to
avoid dunning our subscribers, ~.but the
time has now Foie when forbearancelis
no longer a virtite. We have Some-five'
or six dqllars scattered 'over the

some of it now. I Will not some of our

The Dank of Pennsylvania, Philadel

and an investigation of its affairs com
menced. Its bills are worthless. The
Weeklll Pressi in an editorial on the SA

" There is too much reason for believ
ing that the forthcoming report of - the
investigation into the affairs of the sank
of Pennsylvania will disclose a mass of
corruption and mismanagement in that
institntion, which will vividly recall the
days of the broken ,13ank of the United
States. There scents to be but one opin

that the noteholders) and depositors . will

ded their fortunes to the bank, will not
be so fortunate. Itany reflections will be

.
noble , definition of Democracy several
times before, but it is so rebeshinz-to re
,call such sentiments as compared with the
7,Drud Scott .deersion, Democracy, that we
_..
cannot publish it too often.
' The Democrat must ,presume on. the
dullness-of its readers, or It would not give.
-them this description of genuine Democ
racy,' while it defends and supports the
Deuloefaey which sustains such doctrines
as the following. The Democrat goes
hand in hand with the' following papers
and their sentim-ents :
WHITE SLAVERY. --•• The Richmond
Enquirer, a leading . Buchanan paper in
Virginia,uses the following language :
,
"until recently, the defense of slavery
has labored Under 'great ditEculties; be.
Ouse its apologists - (for they were merely
apologists) took half-vtay grounds. .They
confined the d . efensq;of slavery to mere
negro slavery,. thereby giving up the prim-
Ciple, admitting other fozins slavery .to
be wrong. • . •
"The line of defence; however, is now
changed., The,south now Maintains that
:814very is. right, natural and necessary,
and does not depend upon the difference
- The laws of the slave
states justify the holding ofwhite mon in
bondage." .
Again a-leading South Carolina
chanatt paper says : ,
"slavery is the natural r . i
and normal
condition of the laboring. Man, whether
white or black. The great evil of north
ern free society is, that its is burdened
with-aservile - class of meehanics and la-
Ourexv, 14nlit for self government, and yet
clothed with the attributes find powers of
eitiOns, IN.ipter and slave is a' relation
in society as nat4ro apd neuessary as that
'of parent and child; and , the northern .
states will :yet.liave to introduce it,
•!.•Wre repeat, then, that policy and hu-,
manity alike forbid' the extension .of the
evils of free society !A:l . nm people and:
Coining generations.
• . opposite and conflicting forms of
society cannot, amon,,,c , civilized men, co
exist and endnre, The one must:give
Iv:LT arid cease t.p eisist, the ether become
Universal, If fret society be unnatural,
humeral; rtnphristian ; it must fall, and
give way to a slave society-7,a system old
as. the world, universal as. mart."
ifi T aid, another
yaliaut Buell:map organ says :
Society! we sicken at the name.
What' is it but 'a couglomeratlon of gyeasy
inechanics i .'filthy operatives, pui al l-tis tett
fanuers,- moon-struck theurists? All
the northern plidospepially the 1$ evir Elig

class one meets with is that of inechanits
-struggling4o be genteel, apti small 'farm

who are hardly fit for association with a
southern ,gentleman's body, servant, This
is your free Society ' which the'northern
hordeS are endeavoring tp extend... bat°
KanSas."
The. Richmond (Va.),Exami-aer, an
other. Buchanan paper, uses the following
language:
"We 'have got - to hating everything
with' the 'prefix free, froin free negroes
down and up thioughnthe
,whole cata
logue----free farms" free labor, free society,.
free will, :free thinking, fil,ee children, and,

brood Of damnable isms: ' But the worst
of all' abominations is the' modern system
of free schools, which hai ; been , the cause
and`.prolific spree of the infidelity and
treasons that have tprnett,[ber cities into

him, but befause the Legislature, having

recent and severe financial revulsion has filled
with gloom, sorrow and distress„ the .hearts

of famine, no dread of impending public or
social calamity, mingies with our emotions of
gratitude for past hlessings t or weakens our
