'1 t'OJL frJVTJEER. We gjve place to the following communi ■cation, on the principle that “to apeak his though! ais every freeman’s right”—not that we agree with"the Writer'in every position! he has taken, or in the remedy-for the evils of a debased currency he has suggested.— We think if the Legislature would perform their duty, and introduce info the banking system those wholesome.reforms recommen ded by«ov. Porter in his annual message, the evil would be remedied in a great tncasuie, without resorting to a “Ireasmy System,” as contemplated by our friend. Monroe Township. May 7th 1840. Messrs .Editors:—Under the. present di lapidated state of .things, what ai'e the'people ■to-Hof-.they seem to - become .wearied ...jn waiting for a turn of affairs. Shall they a gain look forward with pleasing anticipation of better and more successful prospects, to the convening convention of the Legislature on the 12th day of May? It may be their hopes may be realized, but their fears do still exist. Our great ones of the State during the sitting of the Legislature last winter promised much, said a great deal about banks, money and-monied matters; buafter all, their inquiries, speculations and'fanciful notions, the times grew worse, specie gradu ally went out of circulation, bank notes de preciated in credit, and the confidence of the people entirely lost. Now how is this evil to be remedied? Can there be no way in whicli this forfeited confidence may he restored, and the faith and courage of the people re vived; that our State may once more evolve from the vortes'of insolvency and ruin, in which it is overwhelmed. The Governor has issued several proclamations, _through_the medium of which the people have become perfectly apprised of the low and depreciated condition into which the Commonwealth is involved, debased and held in defiance by the Banks. It. does appear that she must now fly for succor to the. Banks, whom du -,1-ing the last session she was endeavoring to bring in subjection. The Banks, like all monied monopolies, concious of the poverty, of the Stats and their own independence, became inexorable—determined to compel a compliance with their.views and measures before assistance shall be given. This is the state of tilings into which the people are re duced through the:existence of that all per verting influence, of parly spirit which when once it becomes so entirely corrupted as .to consider nothing but party, the interests of tho Commonwealth, tho vital interest ot 1 1 un people, must depart and the prosperity of a nation full asleep. These are facts: that the times are hard, money scarce, labor scarce, and no change to be had—how .then are we to get along? Something ought to be done at the next meeting of the Legislature-for the benefit of all parties, conditions, grades ami stations—that the high, the low, the rich and the poor, may become equal participants in proportion to their merits and claims.— Could not n system which would be alto gether independent ofthe batiks he introduced to accomplish this all desirable object? The ■Legislature could enact a law authorizing a Treasury system to bo established, say in every county of the State, authorising them to issue a certain sum of treasury bills re deemable at a specified time. This would answer a purpose that-would'give relief not only to the people but place the Common wealth in such a situation as to extricate itself out of its difficulties independent of the aid and assistance of Banks, re-establishing its credit and restoring the lost confidence of the peop'e’in the community. - - A SUBSCRIBER. - MILITARY MEETING At a large and respectable meeting of the citizens of Leesburg’and vicinity, subject to militia duty, convened at the public house of William Maxwell, in Leesburg, on Mon thly' evening the 4lh instant, to take into consideration the propriety of putting, in Humiliation a suitable person to fill the va cancy occasioned by the removal out of the bounds, of William Clark, late Brigadier General.

' Sam I Aslans, y MORE OF HARRISON’S WHITE SLA VERY, AND WHIPPINGTO BOOT PROPERTY QUALIFCATION FOR VOTERS Harrison’s ■conscience keepers tell'us that the' old gentleman’s opinions remains un changed.: We do'not doubt'it. •In -order, therefore to ascertain what ids real senti ments are at the present time,, we must look at his former .conduct—look at former OF FICIAL ACTS. . > Ip to-day’s paper we copy an article from the—Madison—(Tndiamv)—Courier,—ishow.ing what Harrison’s views were when lie was Governor of the Territory of Indiana. It will be seen that he (hen, as Governor, AP PROVED of a law for SELLING POOR WHITE MEN INTO SLAVERY, more odious and tyrannical than the one he voted for in this State several years after; for in addition to selling a poor man into slavery, his Indiana law allowed him to be “whipped with THIRTY-,NINE stripes,” if he left the individual to whom he hifd been sold.— What man, in whose bosom throbs -a heart, can contemplate this grinding ami degrad ing. Harrison tyranny, without feeling his blood boil with - honest hearty indignation? What generous individual can think of the unfortunate poor man, laboring in SLAVE RY, and liable to be whipped THIRTY NINE lashes at the caprice of his purcha ser, while (lie wealthy villain" rpns at large, without feeling scorn and contempt for the tyrant~wlio—would give such a law force, when lie had the power to prevent its com ing into existence? The same.article from the'lndiana paper also shows, FROM THE RECORDS, that General Harrison APPROVED of a law, as Governor, that prohibited any man from en joying the right of voting, unless he OWN ED FIFTY ACRES OF LAND. Recol lect it, Harr.son was opposed to ali.ow ANY MAN TO ENJOY THE SACRED AND INESTI? MABLE RIGHT OF SUFFRAGE, UNLESS HE WAS A landholder. And this of course in liis o pinion now, because his conscience keepers assured us but a few days since, that Gene ral.Harrison’s’npinibns had ‘UNDERGONE NO.CHANGE.’ . ' -.. . From the Madison (la.)

Harri iu favor of selling Freemen in Indiana— against allowing'the right of suffrage to ,]the poor man, unless,possessed of a Pro perty Qualification!! &c. &c. Much has-been said in defence of the charge against General Harrison of voting in the Senate of Ohio to sell free white men !as slaves; and General Harrison’s own let | ters of denial and expostulation, have been extensively published. The charge, however, remains well established, and ns long as the 1 records of the Senate of Ohio shall continue j to exisl, so long must the testimony to es tablish this charge be perpetuated. (See I journal of the Senate of Ohio of January the 20th, 1821.) But we have resumed this subject to show, that this section of the Ohio Legislature with all its odiousness. was an old acquaintance ol General Harrison, and had no new-hor*. rors tb present to his mind; for, while Gov ernor of “the Territory of Indiana,” he ap proved and signed “An act Respecting Crimes and .Punishments,” containing sec tions more odious than the section for which he voted in the Ohio Senate: more odious, in as much as it made an escape from this most degrading and humiliatingservilude, a crim inal offence,, punishable with WHIPPING in the full measure of THI,R'fY-NINE STRIPES!!! and with a double servitude as to time.
