What should de donel i, Thls Interrogatory is iri the mouth 1 of every oho Since the rccentsiispenaion, but agreat diversity of opinion exists asjto tho proper remedy for the diseas ed currency; Some sifggest one thing, some anoth er—whilst very many are of the. opinion that there has been too much .legislation bn tho: subject al ready, and that; lhe',Banks ought now to bo leu to the ojioratienpf tlio laws already- in .force; - -This latter opinions so far aa our information extends, prevails very generally with the Democratic party in this county. There are ‘a few,, it is true; who think differently; but wo are satisfied that tho great mass—tho bone and einew—are averse to any fur ther legislation iri favor of these institutions, and particularly to any enactment which would go to ' bblsler up that rotten concern; the O'. Sld/cs BarJc. The is very generally entertained that tho “Monster” has been the direct and palpable cause of the. three' suspensions which have enrsed-the .Commonwealth, and that if it was removed the other Banks would be able to get along without any serious difficulty. This appears ,to be. the prevailing sentiment of a largo majority of thd peo ple-rand it is not confined exclusively to ihe Dem ocratic party. • There aro many of the. opposition who’havo at length got theineyes opened, and are now uttering curses ‘loud and deep’ against thib: hopelessly insolvent “Regulator.” , Wo aro of the opinion that the country. Banks generally are in a solvent condition, find that,they still enjoy a considerable degree of public confi dence—and we believe farther that there is no dis position whatever to make a run upon them. All that is necessary for them, is to cut loose their ill ‘fated connexion with’the United Stales l Bank, and siiow to the world that they are willing to carry out the ilesign of their creation, by'serving-the different communities in which they'tiro located. Let them do this, and the people will sustain them. But let their destinies be again interwoven with those of the “Monster”—leUlhem and their friends; seek a continuance of unnatural atf to the injpjasts ■of the arid it requires no prophet to foretell, that in a shortlimo tho whole system mustgo by the board'. The Democratic parly iS not,as has been falsely asserted, Opposed to a well regulated system of banking: they go for the credit system, so far os it can bo made subservient to tbu interests of the people ami beneficial to tho country. But, as a party, the Democrats are opposed to the continu ance of a swindling heartless corporationj v wliich» in its own struggles for an unhealthy existence 1 seeks to plunge all the other. Banks, in tho.same, vortox of destruction: they are also opposed to the 'alternate suspensions and resumptions of the last four years, and are unwilling that the community shall any longer bo cursed with ah irredeemable paper currency. . 1. . We have thus given our opinion, and the opin ion, we believe, ofthe generality of our readers, as to what ought to bo done—or rather, wo should have said, what ought not to be done at. tbe present crisis. 'The Federalists, however,.have a majority in both branches of ihe'Legislature, and wo Have very little doubt but that they- will again prop up the U. S. Bank, legalize tho suspension, and give the Banks.authority to issue one, two and three dollar notes. What course the Governor will take on the subject, remains to be seen; His is a sltu ntunof groat difficulty—but wo think with out Harrisburg correspondent, that ho is equal to the emergency. , KirEcTioN.—Tho election in Now. Hampshire for Governor, members of Congress and State Senators, will take place on the second Tuesday of March. McLeod.— Rumor says, that tho grand Jury of Loekport have found a true bill for murder against this individual, and that his trial will.come on early in the month Of March. The troubles of (he Harrison party are commen cing. On Saturday'last, tile Penrose and StdVcns factions had a trial of strength in this borough, in the election of (iclcgatcs to the county convention. We-lcarn that considerable exertions Were made On both sides, and that no little Bitter feeling was engendered by the rival factions. The Stevens men, however, carried the day; lifoy succeeded in electing their 'delegates by a handsome' majority, and the Penrosians wero ,fairly driven from the field. 7But this was not-all. On Tuesday the County Convention assembled, and here again the AutimasOnic influence was predomlharit. though. the StroHni, aHa» Pcnrosovpmfty, exerted themselves to the uttermO'st-xtheir elforlsAvero-in vain. The friends of Banks, alias, the Stevens party, yvero, in the majority: .they, selected dele gates to the State Convention of their own: stamp, and inslrubted.thein to support the’.nomination of ’John' Banks.., This.result must be mortifying in the extreme to Mr. Penrose, whoTias thus been so signally foiled by his great .rival in his own county. .A MAtIK’S'NEST.

Crabb puts on' the string in the most approved style, and declares IpaVthe time has at last come, when either Stevens ortho Whig party of Pennsylvania must {alb—they cannot exist together. So they go; but there is at least this consolation for the"spectators. Tt is an axiom that when some folks fall Out, other' folks fpt their own. The best informed and most can-' id Whiga ln this quarter confess-that.thoir party is broken up—resolved into its elements.. There is no cohesive pow-er'which can hold it together any Ipngor, and this, as you may, have before ob served, is always the-case with our. opponents when they succeed. Nothing demolishes them so soon as a Victory. Having ho political principle whatever, a triumph with them is neither more nor less than'the'signal for the commencement of a disgraceful acramblefor the spoils and forjcrsonal aggrandisement. ' . Gim. Jackson and the ,11. S. Bank. . The Bedford Gazette, in third sus pension of the “Monster,” has the;following: ~ VV'hen-Gen. Jackson vetoed this British monster and caused the public money to bo, removed from its vaults, lie told the people that it was a corrupt, fraudulent, insolvent, swindling institution, and an unsafe depository of the funds belonging to the Government—and for-this reason he was" de-; pounced by cvery.puppy, cur, whelp and bound, in the federal ranks, from one end of the Union to the other, as being, an,enemy to the bost interests '.of his country: Yes, the Bankof the U.Stalea was the God of the Whig party—the shrine at which they worshipped—hosannahs were spngto its praise as being the “great regulator of the cur renoy”—every man was dubbed a fool who ven tured toi express an opinion against it—and Gen, Jackson, the second Saviour of his country, was publicly censured on the Senate Journals, by . Web ster, Clay & Co. for daring to warn the people of America against the dangers of this corrupt broken bank which had united Its fallen fortunes with British Dukes, Lords and Noblemen, tor the pur pose of prostrating our republican form of Govern ment ! ..; Thousands, of honest. Farmers and Mechanics have been led to believe that Gen,,Jackson’s Bank Veto'produced, all ;the icaiamiti^,^;J)^\j^|^Rff' ture to that brilliant, patriotic and unanswerable document, and consequently were deceived into ■'thS federal ranks for a aeason. The scales will; now foil from.their, eyes, and those who have'been deceived by the false clamor of ai band of unprin cipled apd designing wretches, whose only object was to obtain office regardless of the general good, will again rally on the side of Democracy, and, after the lapse of a short pertqd, the Star Spangled. Banner will again'waive in triumph over the land of the free and the home of the brave! Every prophecy President Jackson made con cerning this Bank has already been fulfilled, and those who have been blindfolded will now begin to discover that this brave veteran is gifted ’ with more than an ordinary degree of wisdom, and thou sands upon thousands who condemned his course in'regard to the currency, will how applaud and admire his reasoning, his conduct, and his straight forward career.. It will require something more than a sham log cabin,' a coon skin,- a barrel of .hard cider, a big.ball, a'rams horn, a pirate flag, or a string of Buckeyes to make the people yet en tertain, the idea that the notes of .thin grant ontinm- Sonic Balance Wheel are bettor than gold or sil ver—and it will require some stronger proof than the vagherdedarations of an infamous blackguard, in the shape of a Buckeye BlacKbmilh, to induce the Belief that this fraudulent minister IS the only safe depository of the public revenues!! Gen. Harrison reached Washington or Ttioa. day of last week—paid a visit to Blr. Van Burcn on Wednesday, and'acccptod an invitation to dinq with the President on Saturday.. Speaking on this subject, the Baltimore Clipper, lias, tiio following very sensible remarks: : The moiiT spirit.— lt is stated that the Prcsi dent elect,. General Harrison, visited Mr. Van Hu ron on, Wednesday last, at'the White House, and Was cordially received. He accepted an invitation to dine with thc president yesterday, when a num ber of-gehllcmen of both parties were expccted tb bo present. This is the right spirit, and as long as it is preserved our country will bosafe. . How different ;s this from the intolerance of minor par tizaria.' who’pcrmit their political differences to in terfere with theiraocial-relations.

The Governor sent in a message on Tuesday,, vetoing the bill providing for tho re-payment of the money, borrowed from the Harrisburg, and U. States Banks, by Gov. Ritner, to repair the Juni ata broach.in 1838..' Tho Governor is unwilling that the money shall bo repaid, unless the Legis lature willfirst compel the disbursing officers of that period to show in what manner they appropri ated thiTmonay.

What the Governor will do, if such a bill comes before him, is of fturse to be seen. My impression is that ho will apply the veto, and if he docs so, I have no doubt the. people will sustain him. .The, fact is, the lime has now arrived when the Banks or the pcopie'are to govern."

MOSES STOREY, 5 JOHN SPROUT, - February 18, 1841. Admi’s. Printers and their Subscribers. It is not likely, Mr. Sanderson, that ail of your readers know that Dr. Benjamin Franklin was a printer as wel) as a philosopher mid conse quently had, not Only a theoretical but an expe rimental knowledge of mankind; nor is it likely that they know his opinions of them in their re lative situations in life. Among otherthings he said that, Debtors and Creditors had the.'4«t and the worn memories of any people upon eat th; for that, if lOU, you would be certain to remem ber it—whilst / would be ascertain to/oryet it; and vice venal gAmong,the thousand undone good .things he said; many of them had particu lar reference to the Craft, that ought never to be forgotten , especially by those whq,belong to it. Perhaps you, yourself, Mr.'Sanderson, don’t know what I have reference to: bot'you ought to. know—for, “the proper study of mankind is man;” and, if you will permit me, an old practi cal printer, I’ll tell you what he said in relation to the caption of this article.

Let me look over my bonks, said he, and I- can tell you the character of every person whose name is there." Being asked by a cotcni pornry, How-? he replied, ‘‘upt.ri the. principle that, a man who \s prompt and honest in small matters, will-be so in large ones: for he who would defraud an Editor of one year’s subscrip tion, would -steal a Horse oh rob a ,Church, if it was not for the fear of detectioni Sc deserves to be published among Thieves and Ri dbers, as unworthy the-associatn-n nr countenance of honest men,.” This said Dr. Franklin—whence J •■*-.* -*■—. , <ft*7Wr.^-rf*«^«»i*r Now, print it, Mr. Sandersonj it Is a piece of • history —ami it may, perhaps, on some future occasion, answer y.our purpose, p«s tyell as it will ?>»{«*, now.
