The St. Louis Globe-Democrat reprodu ces this article, copied by the Jefferson City, (Mo.) Examiner of December 12, 1857, from the Albany, (N. Y.) Argus. Its perusal recalls the principles and practices of the last Democratic National Administration, that of James Buchanan : Postmasters are not bound to aid the circulation of any newspaper, and it is their duty to furnish the accomodations of the mail to all. But they are indebted for their offices to their political friends, to which they belong. Their duty to that party—simple good faith to their politi cal associates—requires that they should, so far as they reasonably can, reciprocate the kindness of the party which has con ferred office upon them by aiding in up holding its principles and perfecting its organization and contributing to its suc cess. In no way can this so convenient ly and efficiently be done by them as by extending the circulation of Democratic newspapers. There is not a postmaster at the small est country hamlet who can not, by a small amount of labor and a little tact increase the circulation of Democratic newspapers in his neighborhood. Where postmasters refuse to recognise their ob ligation to their political friends to do this, and especially where they engage in circulating black Republican newspapers, it is perfectly fair, nay, it is the duty of of self-preservation, for the Democratic party to dispense with their services, and bestow their offices upon those who have a more eorrcc* appreciation of political duties. More than this, these Post Office ap pointments, as long as it is agreed they are political ones, should be in efficient hands. They should be bestowed upon those who have the disposition and the skill to aid and strengthen their party in the locality, and where they are now in the hands which fail to accomplish this end changes should unhesitatingly be made. On no other principle of distribu ting political patronage can a party be sustained. In the case of postmasters, a pretty good index of their political effici ency is afforded by the number of Demo cratic newspapers circulated through their respective offices. Recently several friends of Mr. (leorge H. Stuart proposed to that gentleman the idea of starting a new bank, to be known as the Mechanics' National 'Bank, or such other name as might be agreed upon. Its capital was not to exceed $500,000. To this proposition Mr. Stuart acceded. Without any publicity or any very special effort the subscriptions commenced the first day with over SIOO,- 000 and coming in daily for more or less the past week, and by yesterday the whole sum of $500,000 was subscribed, with more applicants at the last than could be supplied. There are eleven subscriptions of $25,- 000, one of SBO,OOO and one of $20,000, with a large number of SIO,OOO. The subscription list represents some of the largest banking, commercial and manufacturing linns in the city, several of which linns will be represented in the new board of directors, soon to be chosei. The committee have already leased the building, on Fourth street, one door be low- Chestnut, ow ned and recently occupi ed by the Provident Life and Trust Com pany, and as soon as the necessary ar -1 augment sure completed the bank will be ready for business. This building is admirably adopted for banking purposes, having every convenience for directors, officers and clerks, and an excellent lire and burgular proof vault, put in by the owners for their own use at a large ex pense. Four of the firms alone represent ed among the shareholders sell goods to the amount of twenty millions of dollars annually.— Philadelphia Press. The Democratic Executive Committee of Monroe county Mississippi, lately passed a resolution "that there should no longer be any Radical school teacher em ployed in the capacity of school teacher" and requiring a certificate from an appli cant as follows: "I certify that I have been a Democrat, and that I will hereafter support the can didates of the Democratic party and will work with that party."
