TBt EDITORS OF TUR LYX< UOURO X 111- oima. Gentlemen 1 am indebted to the ntten linfi of a friend in Kicltinoiid lor a sight ul your paper oftlie 21st msl, containing some comments on a card winch 1 recently pub lished in the Whig. Yvur comments arc rcsonably candid, yet your publication of my letter w.mld nave been fairer. But of this omission Ido nut coin, plain, my own experience supplying me with the knowledge of its being frequently incon venient, sometimes impracticably, fur Editors to publish at length that upon winch they com ment. it is, however, generally in an Edi tor's power, by abridged extracts, to furnish his readers some guess of the chef position, arguments and course o( reasoning ol Ins op ponent, It is obvious that, in respect to these particulars, your readers are nearly as much in the dark concerning my card, as they were before tlic Virginian of the 21st was published. This circumstance constitutes for me some thing like a claim to a place in your columns, which, however, i should nut assert, except that your paper is the organ of the community in which my early manhood was passed, ami winch I have not ceased to regard with foel ings which that fact inspires. A few words, then, not ao much in reply as illustration, and wholly exempt from the spir it of controversy, and in Uiese, I shall observe no other order than the suggestions of my In nd at the moment. 1. I regret deeply to sec the Virginian and ntheijWhig papers,while they acknowledge it to be imiiassih/e (as it undeniably is) to in duce the Federal authorities to charter a new Bank of the United .Slates until at Kiel the lime of the present Congress bax expired, if not the present Presidential term, yet unremit tingly argue in favor ot one. If n Federal Bank be out oftlic question, as all k> I eve, feel and know, why inccsranlly urge its adoption? Toe people ot ciery Stale, save possibly .Mas sachusetts, Kentucky, Mississippi and f/iutsi. ana, arc hoselilo to such an institution. Tiny have repeatedly, even I'unsylvania Ircrsollj declared their opposition witiini a lew yours, and that with a loudness of voice and vchem cnee of tone never heard before in this goner •lion. Do they who continue to urge u Nu lionet Bank hope to overrule the objections of (bis great and angry majority, governed in tbuir objections by passiotis and prejudices am mg the deepest seated and most mil l' ll- Hal in human nature.—aye,mid by rensons to i, winch, if Inapplicable to tins late Hank, are, in the abstract, just, well founded, patriotic, and 1 had almost said holy! If there are tiny on terlainuig such loud hopes, they have little knowledge of the American peop'c, i n I n hap py conceit of their own persuasive po-vun 1 , who expect to convince where Mr. MuDni' | fie, Clay, Webster, mid above all, experience I has tailed. So long is the agricultural inter est of the Untied States predominates over j the mercantile, the people w.ll ho opposed ' to a national bank,oß Iveiily believe they are to all .hanks; an opposition in which 1‘ for on*?, would co with them fto the ,cxter. tninilion Os the whole tribe, did I not clearly perceive banks to he one of those evils, which, nncu admitted into a state, cun never niter wards he eradicated Not that I doubt the capacity of bunks for usefulness, wisely re »inctod, l>ul there is an inherent tendency in the system to vice, to accumulate irresponsi ble power io n few hand*, to make the rich richer, and the pour poorer, and to convulse society by expansions and contractions, which it is difficult if not impossible to rostrum.— The truth is, that banks exist but tor the sin gle purpose of making six and three quarters per cent, on so many hundreds of thousands of dollars. What contr.bit'es to tins sol.tary object is good in their eyes; nil else is had, or indifferent at most. The Dneclur when he enters the hanking house, is hound, as ml honest man, to drop the idividnal, and assume the mere money dealer, lie mu.-t die:ard ad personal sympathies and social ties, end look only to the six percent, of the corporation whoso interest lie watches. That interest must ho protected, whoever differs, whether the immediate community or the country. A bank lias no sympathies, af fections, friendship, patriotism, or, as Sir Ed ward coke summed up in one word,no soul.— It wss brought into life to make money, hye# (or nothing else, and Imply dies when ft ceases to make money. And nil this feeing certainly true, who can call for • bank except it help his iimqcdiate interest l The vast proportion oftlie people arc untouch ed in this wty, and licnea Jhoy dislike nil banks, exactly as lio-y jia jmisorly cIV-T's* whose souls are in their money bags. The dislike is strung against their own banks— banks chartered by their domestic government —by themselves. How much stronger is it naturally sgiinsl n Federal Dank—a bank chartered by a power which they have so great rcison to dread ss more dangerous to liberty than the united arms ol all Europe! For, look where we may, to whateverqmrter oftho heavens, and wo behold not a cloud as big as your hand to threaten the liberties of this country, save only that which has exhaled from tha corrupt ons and putrefactions at Washington. I conclude,from the known principles of hu man nature, winch rarely, when closely atten ded to, inisleadjtbo enquirer,that the people,are in opposition to the establishment ol a Nation al Bank; and this a priori conclusion is abund antly confirmed by the events of the I ist live years. I am equally convinced, as 1 think every candid mind must lie, also, that their hostility <s impregnable to reason, and even lo interest ilselt, and that therefore the question I ought lo be considered as adjuged and deter mined finally, at least untd the existing gen- i oration of men is shoved elf the stage by a I new one of different habitudes and sentiments, j In this 1 find nothing to regret ; fur although, with much chastity of taste and felicity of wit you denominate my apprehensions Irnm a new Federal Bank “a bugaboo," no patriot, in my opinion, can discover a fit cause for levity or merriment in a National Bank of! fitly millions of capital, aided by 20 millions j of annual revenue deposited by the Govern- ( ment, located in a city of corrupt politics, • and organized by a political party which, in i the Uriel period of nine years, lias syalcinati- 1 zed corruption, and in New \urk notorious- i ly maintains its ascendancy by the very means of using the banks as polit.cal machines. You argue that a National Bank, having been - twice tried and each time found safe Host (he dangers I tear from a new one, that tlierelure it may bn revived with equal and continued’ safety. I argue that in such a case the past I is no guarantee for the future—that the hun esiy and independence of the late hanks lur. uish no possible security for the integrity of a i future one—that there is an innate tendency j both in the Federal Executive ami such an i institution lo strengthen and perpetuate its power—and that Hus proclivity, cun,j me tor the with past exp .'notice, | would lead to a conjunction of the two—a conjunction that might well infuse alarm into | the most thoughtless mind. With great de-1 ferencc, I submit that my argument is more philosophical, if I may say so, than your’s. Von draw your deduction from the principle* it- elf. , f well know fho advantages of n National Bank, as the creator and protector of a sound an eq taf e ireonof i but 1 would not weigh an equal anrren-y, for n moment, against tin- I cuinluiialiod lit a New V-#ik N stoma Dank of jj m.hmus wllh such a I'rttstdenl bi • wc have had and iu»y have again.

The (*oopic can dc with a vitiated currency—not so well —bu' yet reasonab e well. 1 believe more stress ii laid on an unequal currency llidtl the subjoe . deserves. To return lo the text—l tegrcl ths enntinn »l and un-uspended call for a National Bank '■ for pnry reasons: It is indeed quite barm '• less as it respects the establishment ot a new 0 Bank, but is it infinitely miachcvious to tin '* Wings— The suspicion that the Whig part; favored that institution has been widely per >! mcioiis to Us interests. The accusation ha, II been every where made, though often knowi ' | by the accuser to be utiloimdod, and has bor 11 j rowed a slmw of truth from the imprudent am i bootless clamor in favor of a Bank, kept u| e by u portion ot the Whigs. A very consider ’ able division in the Jackson party are secret ly in favor ol a Bank, but they have the dis 1 crotion to abstain from insisting where they > perceive it would be unavailing. The consc ‘ qucnce, is, that the Jackson party rccomtnendi “ itself to the mass of the people as the exclu 1 sive fees of a Bank, and by the same procesi J' that they acquire the merit of hostiUy lost • odious nn institution, devolves upon the Wings llili und.vided but unjust dpprdbritnr > of being its only friends. The Bank lias beer 1 the great hinge of national affairs since 18151 1 Its excessive unpopularity explains the mys * 'cry of Gen. Jackson's Unbounded and inor dinate influence, which, instead of rfiniiniblimg under his nets of lawless and arbitrary viu * leiice, from October, 1832, when he seised upon the dopositev, w out on to increase, pre cisely because the Bank was the victim, ami 1 its prostration and suppression the object ul Ins illegal enlcrpriids. To the philosophical 1 politician this circumstance supplies the moat 1 important instruction. Bat it has been to much overlooked by those who had the hones ty to convert it to patriotic purposes, while j. the demagogues have found it a royal road lo popular favor, preferment and influence. Von may observe them now, whenever they have an object lo effect, invariably have re course to •rifle Ba.Vk as the means of accom plishing it, My ancient friend of the Kich j mend Enquirer has, lor years, affected In sec mi other public grievance hut “11 dd.e’s Bank. | The m gbty si rides ol'Fodcral powcrjlhogigan- I He growth ol Executive patronage; the obviour j badges of a corruption deep scaled and wide i spread ; the successive overthrow of all the | ramparts eroded by the Constitution lo curb I the Executive; the complete reduction of the !

I dor-'d more awfully from Ida or Olympus, than j he lias the while against Biddle's Bank, the 1 acme of whose actual offending, proved, no j far as I can learn, was the loan of $52,000 lo j an Editor, and the publication of certain i speed at tlui expense of the stockholders. | When it was necessary to divert popular at- I Icntion from the ultra federal doctrines ot the ' proclamation, Biddle's Bank was held tip by | the hair of Ins head, and the expedient was I found sovereign. When the removal of the deposits* anil iib train of despotic measures had to be defended, Biddle's Bank was still the tub to the whale, which the whale swat, lowed with the utmost alacrity. When I’re sidclial dictation of his successor was de nounced with so much reason, the Dank was j again paraded, and with the same effect • When it became nn object to destroy popular confidence in Mr. Leigh, the Bank was put upon Ins shoulders in no pile of Ins renuncia tion ol it, and ho was crushed by its weight There is now a luckless split in the Van Hu ron raiiks,and to heal the schism my old friend of the Enquirer is at it again,thundering away at Biddle mid his Bank. Mr. Hives has run |,j 8 sliip|nsliore in an ambitious contohi ion wj t |, Mr. Benton, mid those who hove read his speech the other day Will have noticed that i t!) „uc lion consists of invectives "gainst Biddle's Bank anti an enumeration and preference- ov erjMr.t Tlhoun, of his long and arduous send ees against it. 1 have not seen Major Gar land's (Marshall Ney—“Soldiers! r |g|,t ( 0 the hearll") yeti I would be willing t 0 wager a pcppur-curn that lie 100 flares up against Biddle and his Bunk, although the Madiso nian, the Rives organ, on the day after it was delivered, most md-udroitly styles it the ghost of a Bunk, Now, ills time for ill# Whigs to pursue the Homan maxim, and learn from their enemies They have seen for years every Jackson dema gogue, when he had o point lo carry, a foe to pul down, or a scrap* lo gut out of, stake his cause upon the unpopularity ol a National Bank, and w ith invariable success. Upon (but subject they have seen and daily see, the people, through the mstiumeiilnlily ol their prejudices, gulled with the most pci loot facility and infallible certainty by the grossest pretenders. They have seen Gen. ■lucksort, by bis illegal warfare against it, instead ot uei,. ’ iuineaciiou !” r violations of the law, in vest himself w ith a far eclipsing that derived from his achieve."""'" arms, ami u substantial power many degrees ex ceeding that ol sceptred monarch". The inference is irresistible—that a National Dank is, to the multitude, of oil things the mast odious, and that it will sink the puily that attempts to shoulder it: And the plain lesson inculcated by the inference is, lo desist from asking for that which is not to ho had, and which cannot he asked for without fatal injury to the great cause of reform and the Constitution. The Whigs, lo make this cause triumphant, must acquire and retain popular confix defied,which, in the present stale of Iho popular mind, no parly sustaining a bank, as a puny, can possibly do. Allow me to respectfully suggest that lo argue in behalf of a National Bank is a . pernicious as “nvir- to press Hie question," -. You say “you could not but be slruck by lire fact that my preference for the Suit-Treasury system is not (in the card I published) vindicated -by any elucidation of die superior advantages of ibe scheme, bit sustained only by « train ol infer i enli.il reasoning drawn from the ‘danger’ of ihe j - s 'ato Bank system," dtc. lou no dobut overlooked my express engage j ment lo attempt to prove the su|>«riority of Die i Sub-Treasury to (he l‘el Banks in a second let ter. Having nu longer Die smallest taste fur politics, I bail determined to fotfeit Dint engage ment, as rather presumptuous, when the subject «as about in he discussed by Die master spirits jof the ago; but since you derive an argument i against the proposiiion 1 maintain, from your own I inattention, and, byway of inlfivUng penance ; upon you, claim the privilege of publishing Dia vindication oftlie Sub-Treasury in tire Virginian, d, Y’eu think it “apparent, upon the face of tny i argument, Dml a fierce and along standing hos tility lo Die Slate banking system is at the bottom of my preference of the Sub-Treasury,” Perhaps so; but if it lie, I am unconscious of it. / uc- Iciiuvletlge that An fibre, anti in Ihe emirs vs the \ time / challenge the pres/* of its sagacity anil ! witilom. My bosliliiy to all Banks is as old as ; Dio period when 1 first lontied opinions on public I affairs, and us sincere us my dislike of irresponvi- Ida power.

(von TUX CIIUOXICLI ANII SSMTIX*!..] MR. FORBES’S BENEFIT. I I solicit, Mr. Editor, a space in Iho columns of ’ your paper, lo call attention lo Ihe claims or iner ! its of a most estimable and worthy gentleman, us well ns very able and interesting actor, and ju dicious and meritorious manager. Though a dc , cided At jealous friend of the Theatre,as an insti tution, yet 1 am fully conscious that it is capable alike of good and evil, and that its virtues, and benign mid meliorating influences on society, for which 1 esteem and value it, are dependent, al most entirely oil Die manner in which it is con ductsdi And certainly, tho mode in which it has been managed in this city,mainly,for many years past, has been calculated lo do it more injury, than all the opposition of its ordinary enemies. Disgusted with Die vulgar, low, and obscene ex hibitions which 1 frequently witnessed upon its boards, in negro songs and characters,coarse jests, and such vicious and obscene farces as “the Bath Hoad,'' or "Married yesterday,” &c. &c- together with the consequent disorderly conduct ol the, audience, 1 hud not merely lost all interest in it, but bad begun to look upon it as a moral nuisance which every sincere trioiul oi virtue, morality, and good order, was bound lo use his efforts to abate, or at least to withdraw from it his counton -e ami s '.’<mott. While entertaining these *•' ~ • ‘hat I could no opinions, ami Oetqnj regretting .. longer honestly cherish my regard lor ->.! iustitu- | Don, ns conducted, and indulge in an amusement the most rational, refined, and instructive, I heard with pleasure of the engagement of Mr. Fonnss, to become its Manager i for the favorable impres sion madu by bis amiable and gentlemanly man ners and appearance, and what I had casually heaid of his character, revived my hopes of its reformation, under his auspices ; and 1 am grati fied lo say, Dial they have not boon disappointed; True all lias not been done Dut could bo wished; but yet much, very much, toward it—probably all that was practicable, ao far—enough, I think, at . least lo satisfy us Dial if it be properly appreci ated and sustained, all that is reasonably desirable will be effected, and soon—as soon as the pat ronage awarded will justify it—and sooner cannot reasonably be expected. A stock company ba* be cn employed, unquestionably, the best, and the most respectable, lake it altogether, that has over been presented in Augusta—respectable, too, not alone in the professional, bul private cbaract ct and deportment, also, of its members—a matte 1 f no slight moment to the community, and the friends of the Drama, and not a little ere ditable lo t h« manager, who selected it; for ibe intolligen t and virtuous cannot long derive pleasure or seek rational amusement, to say nothing of moral in 1 (crest, instruction, and elegant refinement, from a Source which they do not morally respect aa i , approve. The Orchestra is decidedly superior to [ any which has preceded it, and possesses of i itself, attractions, and sources of refined interest and pleasure, of peculiar power. Tho Flute of I Mr. Thxvkhs, especially, is most exquisite and admirable ; as is also the Piano of Mr. Ivk«skv ; I and the Violins are very excellent. 1 regret that j the deportment of one or two oftho younger mem t tiers, in climbing over Die buck of their seals lo . and from the pit, laughing and chatting with each ’ other and the audience,eyeing and commenting on ‘ (bit's B around,Diem, and parlieutaily the ladies in \ Die boxes, and altogether, offen rendering Diem t relves’inore conspicuous than the actors, and very 1 unpleasantly distracting the attention of the au l dienco —is mil as commendable and agreeable as " their music. The interior of Dio Theatre has '* , been newly painted and decorated, and very tastefully, so far as its exceedingly awkward and il injudicious e,instruction would |H*rmit ; and si r. I* ' I „ flit rerj liiimlmniw ail.lilMii-, liiglity In ■I Ihe •rll«t, have I turn mailr id tin* arciwwy. The order, too, though not all.-golhcr such a» ' one might wi«h it, haa Itcen greatly improved; || and llie rnlertainmeHu have been Ouch,generally h both in their (selection and alyle of jtt 1 1 tonilancea a* to deaerva the approbation, arid libera! patron, age, of an enlightened, refined, and virtooua com _ munity. Engagement* have been made with many of the rnoat distinguished actorr and ac “ tioaaea of the country; arid indeed a moat liberal and enterprising deposition has Iteen manifested throughout the whole management, and the ~ strongest disposition to deserve llie approbation and encouragement of Ihe public. Added to all Ibis, a circumstance has come within my knowledge, and whit-h 1 cannot refrain rc here from mentioning, in the highest degree creditable to the judgment and discretion of the manager, and his respect for llie interests and us feelings of the community in which he is placed; u- and which, while it shows him to lie peculiarly jr fitted for his station among us, cannot fail to i- command the confidence of the community, and is its most respectful and grateful regard. It having er been suggested to him, at the commencement of lha season, that some of our citizens had spoken | of the tragedy of Othello, a» utterly inconsistent' j with the character of our institutions, and highly | improper for representation among them, he promptly replied that he fully concurred with them, and fell no hesitation in assuring them that it should never lie played in the Augusta Thea tre, while ho is manager of it, What arc hi s y opinions of our Institutions I know not—it mal y lers not. Suffice it that his conduct manifests •hat respectful deference for the feelings, iutcrests ,f and opinions of the community in which he is e situa cd, which is ever characteristic of an cnliglr (l tened, liberal, and virtuous mind; and I foci as n sured cannot fail, in these times of vicious fanati cism, assault, and abuse, to make that grateful , and respect impression upon the feelings of every 0 intelligent Southerner, that it has upon mine. As this tragedy of Othello is sustained by the character of Shakespeare, and has been played i f our community without any 6pcn manifestation [ of disapprobation, ; u nature all ,l tendency cay ”bi have occurred to all ; but 1 feci assured (] I if they have not, that no one will doubt, after re -1 fleeting on them, that they are utterly and strong ly at war with the spirit and character of our d domestic institutions—yea, and with truth and s nature, 100, as well us revolting to proper decency ,[ and delicacy. Is the character of Othello eonsis r- tent with that of the negro, any where even in its „ highest stale of refinement and civilization! or is ( it consistent with our duly, interest,or humanity, . In place such an exciting (however false and un ii natural;) picture of “black” and “ihicklipped” excellence hetoro those, whoso contentment, and happiness, as well as usefulness, depend chiefly on their instinctive conviction of that natural and radical inferiority, which is proved beyond j doubt by the whole history of their race? What delicate refined, and beautiful female, like Vies r demon,,i, can contemplate herself in Ihe situation of boat character, without the most revolting clis f gust—or believe that any such could possibly dis t regard a negro’s color in (ho contemplation o( his - character, however elevated, and “»co (a real) Othello's visage in his mindl” Faugh! Why oven whore abolition and amalgamation are most rife, the actor wisely) if not necessarily, sacrifices consistency, and the real color of Othello, to the natural and piopcr feelings and taste of the autli" ence, and brings the latter as far as possible within the pale of common decency, nature, truth, and credibility. Ho says, in the text, "I am black,” and is spoken of as “thick-lipped Othello” by those around him, yet appears in color any thing hut consistent with such a description. And what can prove more strongly than this, the re volting and unnatural falsity and absurdity of the character itself I It matters not what the defer ence felt for or due to the author, on the power ful and touching interest he has given to the character, and the scenes connected with it— nothing can possibly reconcile cither with truth and nature. No one will attempt it. Os like character and tendency, as connected with our institutions, are several other pieces of the acting drama, though not so frequently in troduced upon the Stage: “ The Revenge,” “ The Castle Spectre,” &c.; and of course Ihe wise and udieious management which happily excludes the one,will reject the others, also, and with them, I trust the low, vulgar, and senseless negro songs, which nro objectionable, though in a less degree, and positively disgraceful to the stage. Os Mr. Kotinas’ merits as an actor, it is mini cessnry to speak. I believe they are justly and highly appreciated by the citizens of Augusta.— J* is not a slight one, with me, (hat he studies t, --..1 nm'"’" 1 * rather than mere cf mturi\ iiuim r**v» |*» *•£..' *’ y • feet, by “(earing a passion to tatters,” ana Uug the cars of the groundlings” His Romeo, the other evening, was one of the truest and hap piest personations of that character I have over scon. What could bo mote appropriate and beautiful than his readings or gestures in the Galco ny scene; the latter,especially .when leaningagamst ihe wall—or more splendidly impressive, gracc ; ful, and noble, than bis bearing, altitudes, and en -1 lire appearance, in the sudden, impetuous, and * slanting rush upon Tybalt, after Ihe death of ■ .l/c cwliol I doubt that he could bo excelled in i either of these scenes, it indeed in the whole per * sonation. To-night ho appears as Brutus, in I the impressive Tragedy of Julias Cecsar, which i will he presented, if I mistake not, for the i fust time In onr city, and certainly with a cast ol chat actcrs seldom surpassed or equalled any where. I Beside Mr. Forbes, so appropriately, in the r frank, open and manly Hruins, Mr. Cuoi'kk wil* r appear in the character of.Tforc Antony, iu which 5 he haa achieved so much celebrity, and which > perhaps never had , a fitter representative; and t who could do more justice to tho noble uml dc t voted J'orlia, than the highly gifted, accom* i plished and charming actress, Mrs. McClure ; > who is justly a great favorite with our audience, and richly deserves the enthusiastic regard and 5 admiration she lias excited. The other characters ( 1 so tar as they have yet appeared in the bills, ate 1 well cast; and altogether, so favorable an oppor r tunily of witnessing this powerful aud iin pres * sivo Tragedy, will scarcely ever again occur to those who may do so this evening;—certainly t not a more appropriate one of acknowledging and ■ approving real merit, liotlr professional and per * serial; and 1 confidently trust thaljlhey who proper* 1 ly appreciate the value of » well conducted Thea -1 tro.’unJ would encourage the ardent zeal for its 1 improvement which is unquestionably Id: l,y ti,c ■ present manager, will spare no pains to render it ' altogether worthy both of him and themselves addison!

[from oca CORRESPONIIENT.] MILLEDGEVILLE, Nov. 11, 183 T. After closing my letter yesterday the General Assembly continued in session until the elections for Judges were gone through with. In the Oakmulgcc Circuit John G. Polbill was re-elected by a parly vole over Col. Y.P. King, whoso name was used by his friends without his . knowledge. In the Flint Oireuit Angus M. J). King was j rc-elcctcd over Jas. Smith. On Ihe first ballot, j Col. Chappell’s name was used by his friends, and on the second ballot his name being dropped Mr. King was elected, receiving 167 vstes. In the Southern Circuit, C. B. Cole was elect cd over the present incumbent Judge Morgan, & Mr. Saftbld of Washington county — Cole, 131 votes, Morgan, 110 Soffold, 19 Col. Charles 11. Nelson, arrived here this morning with about 12 or 1500 mounted men raised in the Cherokee,|and adjacent counties, on their way to Florida. Col. Nelson, bad been invited to do so by Gen. Call.—A Resolution was offered in the House this morning authoriz ing the Governs! to advance the sum of #15,000, to defray ike expenses of these troops to the sccnq of action, but was postponed until Monday. It was not contemplated to give them money, but only advance it until refunded by the Gen. Gov eminent. The marching of this corps to Florida while it bears testimony to the chivalry and cour age of the mountain boys, proves conclusively that if the cherokec country can spare 1500 men to go to Florida, they do not anticipate any dan ger from the cherokcos, and that Gov. Schley’s recent warlike preparations were intended to operate more against his political opponents then the Indians. At 10 o’clock to day the I.cgislatufc proceeded to tho Election of Attorney and Solicitors Gener al, which resulted as follows: For the Middle Circuit E. Starnes, 120 elected J.

Kings County. —The Whig majority for members of Ascembly is 150. Queens Losntt. John A King’s majority is 264 over his Van Huron opponent.
