Let us make a few logical deduc tions (Vum these mml roiuurknbto premises. Tho Government of Russia is the simplest in the world. Allpooplocan understand simple governments. Tlieroforo every body ought to ndvocato them. Tho Government of tlio United States is tho must complicated that hus ever existed on the earth.— Complicated governments are hard to understand by the common peo.do. Therefore, complicated governments ought to be repudiated by all people, especially democrats. There ure some things now in which your simpli* city becomes indeed a roctiimnendutioii. For in-, stanco, if ono is about to lio executed, tlio gulli'ino is an exceedingly simple opuuitiou. It is decidedly preferable to liungingt it puts one out of misery quicker. The Sub-Treasury is recommended pre cisely by tho same qualities, It takes our money qidckor! Thoro is no stand and deliver, nnd risk ing otlr lifo by snapping of firearms at one’s weas- nnd, but it Is over directly J the money and tlio Sub- Trensuiy nil gono together, and no more to he said about it. Lynch Law is much preferable too, to tlio musty old formalities of-Black stone, my Lord Coko, Liv. iugston or Kent, on account of its simplicity. It hangs n man und llien tlio matter can bo investigat ed al leisure. Tho Sub-Treasury has tlio same recommoiidmion. A Sub-Treasurer may run nwuy with the money, like the Postmuster ut Mobile, nnd Levi & Amos can investigate tuo mutter at their leisure. The Alien and Sedition laws were exceedingly simple? it wn* just “off with his head, so much for Buckingham." A man was brought up for speak - ing ueatnst the government, in tho twinkling of a bed post, and fined nnd imprisoned out of hand. Thoro was none of your complicated nnd tedious delays of the law hero, it wosduno instauter.

How to stop a Newspaper.—Call at the of fiee and fork op arrearages and order it stopped, like a mnn| and not refuse to take it out of the Post Office and Bnoak off like a puppy.—Richmond Compiler. Van Buren’s Bunkrupt law was exceedingly sim ple too, and lias tlio same recommendation us tlio Sub-Treasury. Shooting a man down in tho streets is a much shorter way of revenging ono’s self than going to iuw a nbnut it. Abducting a young indy by strength of arms, is a much more simple plnn than your tedious court- ships, and cringing to fnihors and gunrdiaus and then getting kicked for your pnins. If a man needs a riding horse, it is surely a more simple plan to mount him and ride off, than to go to bargaining for him. Wo hold those things to ho self-evident, that all horses nro born equally free to nil men. It is only your aristocrats that would throw around thorn tho complicated machinery of meurn and (turn. Givo us simplicity and tlio Sub-Trensm-y. A country pedlar wus once asked whnt per cent, he made on li : s wares 1 llo replied that hedld’lit know any thing about your cent ami per cent, hut when ho bought nn article for ono dollar ho sold it for two. Hero now is your genuine mercantile sim piicity. Arithmetic is n horrid complicated tiling, and I was of opinion even while u hoy, that it ought to ho kicked out of school for its want of simplicity. It ought to lie kicked out of tho financial depart ment of tlio government for tho same reason. Swnrtwout was ono of your simple minded men, lie simplified tho operations of tho custom house wonderfully l instead of chocks and countercheck*, ho chucked all tho money in his pocket, und thoro wn* tlm simple end of it. General Jackson wus a wonderfully simple min ded man, (niid'I voted fur him, muy my country for give me). When ho.willcd any thing—ho slapped his Clay pipe through tho Intelligencer—swore by tho eternal—t -ok tlio responsibility, and all the coin- plicutud handy work of Madison and Monroe, wn* undone. Oh, simplicity, thou ait a jtiwal of great PRICE! Science is a complicated thing, and ought to ho abrogated; dcm-iuratscnnnot understand it.

Shout nil yo democrats, wu will proclaim universal liberty, to ull mankind. All laws shall tm uh -fished ; temples and tribunals torn down, Legislative hulls desecrated, nnd hence forth the highway*, nnd tho mnrkot pluce shall he tlio seats of justice, and tlie acclamation of tho people, tlio fiat of all law and justice. This is tlie political millenium of your true and sincere demo crat. Thu world shall have one universal sntun- nalin, old things shall be done away, and all thing* become now; such a chaos shuli reign over tlie civilized world, tlmtthc darkness of tho Douculion de luge, shall he bright noon day-before tlm dark cloud of infidelity, nnd agrarianism, wliich sliull cover the lund. Oil liberty, vlmt tilings have been perpe trated in thy name I Simplicity, it is very true, is a wonderful ihing; u column is a very simple element of destruction, so is n barrel of gun powder—so are lion* nnd tignrs —und huge precipices, and unfuihomuhlo abyses, and tumbling torrents, ami storms, nnd thunder, and lightning; those ore simple, and simplicity is tho principal element of oil grandeur and sublimity, but it is an attribute of tlio great Jehovah. Simplicity too) is n fine thing in writing, and spenking and acting, and is a principal dement in nearly all human excellence If it can be attained, but it is remarkable that tho scionco of government is an exception; even the *1 ivino Inw giver found it necessary to temper his universal wisdom to hu man imperfections, by great simplification of detail. Surely it is not uocessnry to say miy tiling more on this simple point. Ofouu thing beside* iho point under discussion, I will assure tho worthy editor,ofUie Georgian,thaUie is under ujgrcut delusion about tlie neutrality and in difference of the people regarding tho Sub-Treasuiy. If I know any thing of the sturdy nature of our countrymen, and 'might bo permitted to oxpress an opinion, I would] say thnt they would as soon vote the imperial purple to Mr. Van Bureu as to vote for his odious Sub-Treasury. The Piratical Schooner.—-The Charleston Mercury lakes the following view of the case of the slaves, now under discussion: " It is very certain that if they are not Spanish subject-, they are no subjects at ull of any rt-c -gni- z-.-d nution, and may therefore bo punished by nny people, aspirate*. But they nro dourly Spanish subjects, as wo understand;lhe cn-e. Too instant a slave is raid in Cuba, he is recognized by our Government ns Spanish projieriy. Uur law uguin*i the slave trade is only applicable to tlio sobjecis of our lu w—to say otherwise, is lo uffirm tlio monstrous English doctrine against which wu are now protes ting, that the municipal law of one nation i< purl ol the law of nations. It is manifestly tho duty of uur Government to send buck these negroes to Havuna, as snuii us it is pruvod lb U tliey were owned there; mid wu have no more right to inquire what punish ment tlio Spanish law inflict* for rebellion and mur iier, th«n we have to interfere generally to reguls'*i tilts relation of mister und slave intne West Indies.

I am sure, therefore, you wifi ngreo with me, and I believe your remh-r* will nlso. Lest how ever, you or they should huvo forgotten tho trait* wherein tho rosomhlnnco between tho police of Slmkspiute und that of Savannah exists, I will quote the pnsanpo to you, whon I am sure the proposition will bo evident, that one was taken from tho other, but which is the urigioul sitting, i cannot pietoml to sny,hut wish to ho informed.

BANK OK THE U. STATES. The Boston Courier, a Whig paper, and a sup- porter of a National Bnnk, has beon forced to come out in the following forcible manner, against the Post Note scheme. It is highly creditable to that paper, thus to throw off pnrty trammels, when the poopie are nbout lo he cajoled :— Experience it the be it Preacher, hut like that ofmuny other excellent preachers, her voice is not always heard.

But tho public ought to understand thnt the present seuicity of munoy is owing, in a grent degree, tn lha sain of tho Post Notes of the United States Bank in tliis city, and the ronsequont removal of specie from the vaults of our own Banks.—Potion Courier, 4th Eari.y Snow.—Snow foil In Adams county, Pa., nn the 15th ult., and in Salem, Mass., on tho 30th ull* From the Wathington Globe 0th imt. THE POST NOTE SYSTEM. Thu operations of the United States Bank are, wo undnrstnnd, producing u pressure in variuti* parts of the country. Tlm Delaware G.izctto com* plains of one of the banks of .Wilmington refusing regular accommodations to the merchants, and in- vosllng its funds in the post notes of tho mammoth Bank. In Baltimore, it is said, munoy uffaii s wore comparatively easy, till tho Bunk of tho Uniied States stepped forwaid as a borrower, and by offer ing from 15 to 18 per cent, purannum, absorbed ull the spare jcush oftlio capitalists. Tho citizens of Washington hnvo hud the same lemming offer made tothem by tho Bunk, nr its agents, the brokers, and if they have not yielded to tlio temptation, it lins been (or a reason unnecessary to mention. Wo gave on Friday an extract from the Journal of Commerce, showing tlie effect this bank-borrow ing system, produced in Boston. Tho following, from tho Evening Post, n-fets to tlio existing sti.to of feeling in New York: "Ifihemercliuntsofthiscountrydo not shortly become reconciled to tlio Independent Treasury schema, if tliey do not i-omn to regard it ns a nccos- snry restraint upon those gigantic moneyed institu tions which tho State L<-gislalnrus are creating, it will be becausn the losnins uf experience are lost upon them. We expect for our nurt to hear thorn, erelong, as loud in pi aim of the must obnoxious partofthat schema, tlie'specie clause,' as it is called, as they .ever were hi lavor of a National Bunk. ills hardly possible to d-scribe tliouxa.vperation against tlm Bunk with the lung-iteme, »1m» United States Bank of Pennsylvania, which now prevails among tlio mercantile part of our population. Every body understands and declares that the operations of which that Bank is the source and centre, are tlie cause of the present paroxysm of pressure. Every body sees that it regulates currency and cre dit, to be sure, but regulates them with a view to its own profits in the cotton trade, from which, it has elbowed- every individu d merchant. It regulates the currency by throwing out a debased issue of C ost notes; it regulates credit by bestowing it in irgo proportions upon its favorite customeis. nnd by compelling the smaller banks, by a run upon their vaults, to contract their discounts and with hold tlieir usual accommodations. It a storm of execration* could blowdownjtbe Bank, nota stone ofiw wulls would be left upon another. “ Hard winds, however, havo no effect; the Bnnk keeps on the even tenor of its wuy; it* maougeis, to use the simile wliich ono uf it* friends once ap plied to its former presidin', are n« • culm as u sum mer morning.’ Nimhor tlie cursing ami swearing of som/*, nor tho more measured nnd more significant condemnation of other*, will prevent them Iroin using their poser in the manner most conducive to their private interest. If thou* interests require lliqt some few hundred uf the merchant* in tliis city and elsewhere should bo ruined, they will horuinodj there is no alternaiive. Already wu hear of fniSures which bio indulgrnily • uiio**alcd by tlm creditor*, in consideration of tho ojnergunoy of tho times, oc casioned by tlio unexpected measures of tlio Uniied States Bank. “ It is time that a «r»t was thrown about this lovia- han, and tint bis propensity to mischief was re- slrainad. Let tlie merchants take tlwir choice I*- tween the capricious tyranny of there great hanks on the one hand, snd the Independent Treasury ' the specie clause on the other.
