It'has passed the Senate, and its friends [are now active ly engaged‘to scettre its passage through the House. We hope, hbwerer, that the representa tives, of the people, of all parties, will hesitate before they lend 'their hid to a measure fraught with so medh mischief as we conpcive this to be. Bat particularly do we hope'to see the Democratic members of the House remain frue to their faith. The Democrats being in the majority, the Free "Banking Bill cannot pass tho House without re ceiving Democratic support. What Democrat will lend himself to Got. Johnston in this mat tori We shall see! This scheme of Free Bank ing is a Whig bantling, and was recommended by GbyVJohnston. We shalf see whether the wise counsels of that great and good, man, Francis R« §hunkj are lo prevail, or whether Gov. Johnston, (who 'is;.a 'renegade from thoDemocralic parly, and Whose aim and object'is to destroy i4hat par | ly,) is to accomplish his. purposes by the aid of Democratic members of Assembly. For the hon or of our parly wo ; trust this Free. Banking 1 BUI may receive no support from Democrats! It is .a Whig bantling, and should be left to the tender care of Gov. Johnston and his friends in the Legislature. * , > t Should this bill become a law we venture to Say . that before: the lapse of many years, those who now favor its passage, will see the error they committed, and regret their course. The idea held out by some that the more banks we have the moro-easy.it will be lo obtain money, is a very silly argument, and such as no man or even ordi nary sense oan be deceived by. We hope, there fore, to see this bill defeated, and we hope to see it defeated by Democratic votes.' The Public Led ger of a few days since,’contained, a most excel lentand unanswerable article on the subject of Free Banking, which we may publish hereafter' In the mean time We clip from that article (he follows ing extract:' Tlie vsryahdrioes frioridsoftho bill frequently refer lb tho'siiocess of the system in Now Yojk. The only and best answer to this, ia the truth, that (he system has never been tested. Let a crisis occur, such as that we passed through a few years ago, when State stocks fell two-thirds of their par value, and we may then'ascertain whether, when the capital of a Bank has become valoeless. or nearly so, the notes will be at any bettor rate. If.lhe system is so infallible even in these prosperous limes, when almost anything may do for banking capital, as some folks think, how hap.; pens it that the Alias bank of New York, a free bank, is quoted in the Reporter as “ b|oke,” and her notes .arcselling at 30 cents on the dollar? ’Whydo not . the Slate stocks, pledged for (he payment of her ndlesi; pay them,-of prevent Ihemfrom selling'at so, heavy a discount?- It would bo, gratifying to have (hi* explain ed; and nntil there is some belter assurance that the mere untried experiment of our speculative neighbors' of the wliolesomeness of the measure, it would better become old staid'Pennsylvania to recollect, that it is not all gold that glitters—that every bank note Is not money—and (he best way of making* and increasing money; is to work and give value for it.

York Trihune t who is fa miliar with European politics, comments thus, upon the aspect of affairiin Europe:—AßrltishJdinißtry to succeed that tinder Lord John Rc caelt has not been formed, and K appears doubtful whan one.will be.— The crisis had lasted a. wcok ot (he sailing of; the ABla.Bnd wflß thought no nearer ite termination than when it began. Lord Stanley cannot form a Conser vailve Government because lie baa no forces in.tho Commons to back him, and because his parly cannot find proper Umber to fill the offices. Lord John Rus sel cannot goon oven with such a modified Cabinet as mightho.constructed for the same reasons. Both the loaders try, but in valri, to ally themselves with (ho PcelUcs, And so nobody seems lo have an idea that the' bother can be settled. For our own pari, however, jvo fancy it is near its end; It is noteworthy, this turning to (lie men who sur rounded and supported Sir Robert Peel. Lord Sian, ley seeks to coalesce with' them Ihrough. Mr. Glad stone; Lord John Russell through Sir James Graham, Lord Aberdeen and Sir George Grey. It is felt that •o other set of men in-England, can compare with these in their practical business talent which makes so large and so necessary a part' in modern states manship. Conservatives by inheritance and natural (endorcies, they view the noise about papal aggres sions with little sympathy, and refuse all direct co operation in any law against the Assumption ofTitlcs by (ho Roman prelates. Roncgatfcs to the' landed proprietary and their own early connections, by their adherence lo Free Trade, they are still more opposed to the extension of the suffrage than is Lord Julia Russell, but at the same time they remain uncom promising Free Traders. Thus they can join in action with neither the strict Whigs nor the strict Tories, earnestly as both invoke their aid, ready as both ore to compromise by postponing every question that will admit of postponement. The Radicals, who agitato for Suffrage Extension, and who were .allow ed f the fti gltlVo slave ShadraCh, by (he mob In Boston, is likely (o be a cosily Job.
