THE HON. W. C. PRESTON
Who was, during the late canvass, in favor oi put*
ting down tbe present Administration, even by force
of armt, at the Whig dinnar recently given him in
Charleston, uttered this sentiment:
The next Adminittration: A decent respect
to the opinions of the people, requires that it should
have a (air trial."
Wo fully coincide with the honorable gentleman,
and In the language of the late Wm. H. Crawford,
when n guest of our chitons, we say nf the next Ad.
ministration, os he said of that of the younger
Adams, at its commencement—" Let it bo judged
by its measures."
The latter was judged by its measures, and the
people, by a vote of more titan two to ono in the
Electoral College, condemned |t.
Though we hope but little from the next Admin
istration, and apprehend that the people will derive
less, yet we are prepared,when the 4th of March
shall arrive to give a candid support to those ntoa.
sure* which may be Republican, (wo will not say
Demoeratie, lest perchance we may roa ethn ire of
these who differ from us.) At the same time we wilj
present a decided oppniition to those which may
spring from the "corruptions" (we use a favorite
Whig phrase) of power, to administer to the
cravings of those whoat heart disliking a Democrat
ic Republican Government, exert all their energies
to have a master in the person of a President of e
great National Bank.
When the time comes, wo will be found, as we
trust we always have, rendering a proper tribute to
Constitutional measures, and our opposition to
constitutional means to increase power with the sac
rifice of Stato sovereignty, shall never degenerate
into that factious fault-finding which has weakened
the influence or the Press as * moral engine, while
it may have served to magnify iu power In times
of high party excitement. If the parly to which we
are proud of being attached, expected us to sacri
fice fact* for garbled statements, and an indepen
dent position far the lowly seat of those instructed
ia their course, we would rebel and leave It to them
to find a pliant Editor else where. But we have a
higher opinion of the Demoeratie Party, and slial)

Bank BUI. Several gentlemen succeeded Mr.
Flournoy, to wltt—Messrs. Chappell, Hardeman
and Toombs, against striking out the 1st Section—
Messrs. Hunter, Rodgers and Betheo, in favor of
thf motion of striking out. The .latter gentleman,
Mr. Bethea from Washington county, certainly
made a hippy effort In his argument, nature no
doubt designed this gentleman an orator: his time I
understand has been devoted more to mercantile
pursuits than legislative, build* speech on this sub
ject was thrilling and very cutting. The vote being
taken, to strike out the first section of tho bill—
ysas73, nays 113. The ra tion to strike out was

LEGISLATIVE PROCEEDINGS.
"We received on Saturday, from our Correspon
dent,! the Journal ofthe proceedings of the House,
Wednesday (9th Inst.) Several motions for re-
coesiderstion were made. Oae, which prevailed,
was to reconsider the vote fixing the mileage of the
Erolident of the Senate and the Speaker of the
House, at four dollars. We suspect that the ma
jority of the Representative wisdom of the State,
-after a night's reflection, deemed that they had been
too generoos to the Treasury to deduct from tbe
mileage of their officer* one dollar for every twenty
m Iks. they would have to *c«epttfae same.

THE PROSPECT.
The Baltimore American of Tuesday says:
"The rail road train from Washington came in
last night at the regular hour—the track being en
tirely clear of snow."
If the rood North of Washington is clear, we
may presume that those South present the seme
condition.
The Ohio Rail Rond train and the Philadelphia
train which arrived at Baltimore on Monday night,
brought a number of members of Congress who
were to proceed to Washington next morning.

VIRGINIA vt. NEW YORK,

GEORGIA vt MAINE.
We, this morning, publish Governor McDon
ald's Communication of the 7lh inst. to the Legis
lature, introducing a letter of J2th November last,
from Gov. Gilmer, of Virginia. Wo received these
documents from our State Senator two or three
mails since, and would not now divide litem, did tho
arrival of four mails at a t ime allow us to fill with one
subject, so large a portion of our columns. The
deep stake which the South holds in this cuntrover
sy tnkes us anxious to spread all tit* documents,
before our readers, and wehopo to do soatan early
day.
That New York, through lies Whig Governor,
and her Legislature, has acted in had faith
towards Virginia and the South generally, thrra can*
not he the slightest diffurence of opinion. Shall
patriotic section of country be, from day today, in.
suited by such conduct on the part uf States uf tho
same family and of a common origin! If the Con
stitution proves not a rope of sapd, when such
qucstior.sare involved, let it be respected. If it does,
the sooner new guards are provided far our future
security, the better. Mr. Adams has alreedy dis
played (on the first day tha Home Wes organised)
his fanatical seal against Southern Institutions.
Will the Whigi who last year upheld the fenst-
ics retrace their steps this session, nttW, that the
sent of political fanatics need nut be propitiated f
We shall see. Whatever their motives, we hope
that tboy will.
THE HARRISONITES
Are going it all over the country like (to use a
common expression) "a house on fire.” We, poor
Democrats, must wail until their ordour Is couted,
which will be tbe case with nil who find at the
commencement of tho second year of the next Ad
ministration that " all is not gold that glitters.'*—
General Harrison, weareinfnimed by his supporters,
to be the Prnidtnl of the United Stntei, and
not nf a Party. This would be agreeable news to
us, if we held cilice, but as we do not, wo communi
cate it for the benefit of nur ft lends, who do.
This information, however, Implies that Mr.
Van Burxn has not been the President of the
United Stalet.
Mr. Van Burbn's course is above such an impu.
tmion.buim he will speak far himself to-morrow in
hit expected Message, we shall not now allude to
his patriotic and manly career.
Some of oUr sanguine opponents flatter themselves
they have prostrated our party In the dust. A truce
such self-gratuletion I More than a million of
voters may be figuratively prostrated by defeat, but
there is too much of American philosophy in such
mass to allow them to be discouraged by tempo
rary adversity. Besides, there cannot be found
Harrisonitcs enough to keep the Democracy in tha
dust. Thomas JxFrarson, the expounder of the
principles they cherish, was defeated in 1796, but
hia faith was not the less ardent, nur his desire to
serve his country, In a more limited sphere, less
pure- He awaited the " sober second thought" of
the People.
Their reflection was favorable to him, and after
•erring them four yeHrs, he wna almost Unanimously
approved of by an admiring people, there having
be«n in 1804 but fourteen electoral votes for the
Federal candidate.

when it would reach this 6Uy, it wnt Hut doomed
expedient lodetain the ship Any longer: She there-
terday, having left that city at fire o'clock on Satur
day afternoon. Their negotiations was succsufut,
and we may therefore re-effirm our belief that the
long talked of resumption will take place on tbe
15ln. The New Yolk Times says:
" Our banks have agreed to loan the Philadelphia
Banks one million of dollars on nine and eighteen
month*. A committee of three from Philadelphia,
in conjunction with w Boston Committee have been
here for several days, and yesterday morning com
plated the arrangements for tbe loan. The Boston
Bank* will increase the loan to three millions and
a half, which it U asserted will be amply sufficient
to enable the Pennsylvania institutions to fill ||»
requisition of tbe lew in relation to the resumption.
Tbe loan is made on Post Note* bearing six percent
interest- It amounts, in fact, merely to an extension
of the debt due by the PhiUdsipbia banks to ours
and placing it on interett. Wo are glad the affaii is
■t last concluded, and that another fair prospect
exists, that before month* all the sound bank*
throughout the Union, will pay *peci«, end tbe un
