POLITICAL PROSPECTS.
The present contest is to decide the coercion wheth
er this Republic is to be governed by a monied aii
tocracy, wt;h its baleful ;.,.iucnces extending tliroogil
nii the ramifica'ions of the government, from the Ex
ecutive to the truncheon of the constable. The present
contest is to decido the question, whether this Republic
13 not able to manage its fiscal concerns without the
aid, and independent of a United States Bank, with
its damnable influences acting and cct:n:erac:ing upon
the stability of commerce —causing fluctuation after
fluctuation in the durability of trade—confusion and
disorder in the standing medium of exchange. Para
niount to all this, tlio present contest is to decide the
all-absorbing question, whether the key of the Treasu
ry and the sword of the Executive are, as it were, to
be quartered on one and the same deck—setting at
defiance he supremacy of the law—mocking the sa
cred injunctions of the Consitution ! Much has been
said in the old countries—and much more might be
said with regard to the union of * Church and Stale’
being nothing more nor less than pomiiical power—in
other words the key of St. Peter and the key of the
money power concentrated in the person of the Pope.
I mention this circumstance mereiy to shew the flua!
consequence:* of so formidable a union as the uniting
cither church and state, or state an I money ! Such
an union (church and state) may and doth answer the
purposes of papal authority—yea, is its prop and ce
ment—but will, if practically carried out in the end,
gradually approximate flora republicanism to aristocra
cy—thus paving the way to monarchy in ail its hideous
form".
The South is in a truly critical posture, with regard
to her internal institutions. Such is the spirit of trie
Northern Abohtionsifs—such the fre and zeal with
which they have attacked us on the score of slavery—
such the basencs. of the means whereby “they endeav
or to abolish slavery—that it seems to me they will in
evitably bring down upon their own heads the calami
ties forged and fostered for ours.—ln the trenien ions
struggle which is approaching us with giant strides,
let the South adopt efficient measures—l*t her stand
united in close array and present to The North a cool,
decisive, and formidable front—swearing never to re- i
cede an inch of ground until the extermination of all |
abolitionists, enthusiasts, and fanatics ! This may
seem to some a bold assertion—But I go a step far- j
ther, and say, that under no circumstances could the i
Southern people be satisfied with any number of fana- i
tic heads—short of 600 000! Here it stands. Take j
warning, madmen. Ponder before you farther
go. ’ Tis a conspiracy—a hellish conspiracy against,
not the slave holder, but against the Constitution itself,
like the fabled vampire of old, with nocturnal inhala
tion, sucking out the very vitals of the si cred charter
of our liberties. On this question we are not only har
russed by the northern sections of the confederacy—
but the anathemas, fulminations and curses of foreign
nations, portend dire calamities to retard the onward
inarch of the Western Republic. The greater portion
of Christendom appears to be united in behalf of the
Elliiope. (Blessings on their philanthropy!) Wil
berforce of England seems to have ‘ set the ball in
motion’—‘die patriotic labors of ll is individual marks
the data from whence these new lights begin their
work—thus we have the seminal principle of the de
sign, and of the designers. Circumstances alter cases,
and this Tappan should have attended to. ere he be
gan his labors. But notwithstanding his ignorance of
the circumstance, the constituted authorises of the
city of New Orleans have manifested a degree of
willingness on their part to become tutors in his behalf!
For the sake of humanity it is to be hoped that the
question will pass oti without further disturbance.
Buell are same of the prospects ahead. Dark, gloomy,
and portentous as they may appear at this period, it
behooves all true patriots to discharge every duty, con
ducive to the great ends of freedom. At the same
time, it is a duty incumbent upon all true Christians, to
rally to the altar,sacred to the religion of their idolatry,
and there, with out-stretched hands, offer up prayers
for the deliverance of their country from the many
perils with which she is at present beset. This is not
the hour for slumbering. The flame of discord h s
been cast forth. The omnivorous monsters, disunion,
secession! —words of terror, of which the American
people should have been kept ignorant, are now quite
common to the political vocabulary. It is in high con
tests, that high truths appear; and thus is it with re
gard to the many mushroom duct lines stalking abroad
in the land— iriginating, as it were in the night, and
fading away bes >re the mid-day sun. Formerly the
question was ‘ don’t tamper wi h the currency.’ The
question should now he, or rather the injunction,
‘ don’t, Sirs, tamper with the people’s reserved rights
‘ don’t tamper with the Constitution—don’t burden it—
don’t make a pack-horse of it.’ Politicians advanced
to power, go into office as they say to defend the Con
stitution ! Politicians on the dec ine—politicians de
funct—to a man, in the last struggle, hid adieu to of
fice with the sacred motto ‘ I c-ase to exist politically—
I die the death,’ for what, ‘simply because I defend
ed,’ defend;)! out with it—‘because 1 dared to de
fend tho— Constitution !!’Ah ! this thingca'lt and Con
stitution is the hobby; each party mounts it in turn—
the couutry people sav ‘ ride and lie.’ The American
people, of all others, should rest contented arid enjoy
life around the fire side, for they are furnished with
abundance of public servants—self-willed as they’ would
I)" —yet as things flow obedient m the—-Consti
tution ! Obedient to the MASTER! In conclusion
let us, wiih united voices, adhere to the Constitution of
’B9!—preserve it in its original simplicity and purity,
and you give perpetuity to the soverr.monl : if this is
done the glorious ‘ EXPERIMENT’ of ’76 is ac
complished ; and we shall rest contented with the con
solation that the blood of our forefathers was not spl.t
in vain. ‘ SPY.

little or Unit; the 11 hig policy. Labor only
JI i Idncry.
I:i their political creed, the vital labor of
the industrious yeoman anti the haul-work
ing mechanic, ranks no higher than mere in
animate labor-saving machinery. The uses
of both are to accumulate wealth, and the
aim ot the system ot Government supported
by the Federal leaders, is to give them (lie
secret springs that control and move ihe liv
ing and the dead labor power. Those secret
springs ;tre moneyed corporations and exclu
sive privileges, the main spring of all being a
great National Bank.
This is the reason why you find that parly
refusing and denouncing all remedies save a
National Bank. They want that power, not
to regulate the currency of the country,
(which, so far as banking paper is concerned,
belongs only to the Slates) but to control its
productive labor and its politics. They want
it, not to employ industry, hut to appropriate
the fruits of industry, in their system of oo
litical economy and Government, he who ap
propriates, not he who produces, is the true
source ol national wealth—credit, not labor is
capital, and ctpital is the employer and mas
ter ol labor, not labor the employer and cre
ator of capita!. Hence they want a system of
lalse credit, by which lie who can contrive to
obtain that credit by accident, ftlse pretences,
exclusive privileges or special favor, no mat
ter how, so he but gets the name of it, can
appropriate to himself all the profits of labor
beyond the bare subsistence of the machine
employed in that labor.
is it be a steam engine, fuel and oil must
be paid lor, to keep its wheels in motion; if it
be a man, food and clothing and shelter must
be provided to keep his muscles goin<j. Ail
beyond this is to go to the owner or employer
ol the machine.
I do not exaggerate, fellow citizens, in sta
ting this as the present doctrine of the sup
porters of a National Bank. It runs through
all the arguments of the Bank advocates. It
was avowed in the most precise terms, in a
lecture on political economy delivered by the
Hon. Daniel Webster before the Boston Ly
ceum, and repeated before the Lyceums of
several counties in this State. Labor, he
maintained, was mere machinery, and it was
immaterial whether it was performed by an
engine ora man. Ihe great end ot'Govern
ment, on this theory, is to amass national
wealth ; the foundation of Government is to
be based on property, not on men ; the phy
sical energies of a people are only so much
horse power, to be applied to amassing this,
national wealth, and as a component part of
the labor-saving machinery, this muscular
power is to aid in its operations!
A pud of steam which sets an engine in
motion to twirl a spindle, is as noble an agent
in this system as the impulse that moves the
u! l he day laborer, while he plies his task
beyond his strength, that be may minister to
Hie wants of a sick wife and helpless chil
dren.
It is this tendency to degrade labor by re
garuing it as mere machieery, which brought
a out the extravagances, the speculations, the
gambling, and the subsequent ruin tiiat have
vonvutseu society. Every man wished to
‘ ve ’, n ‘; l - v P r °dueing any thing himself, but
by smiting and turning arid appropriating the
property produced by others/ ‘ All the world,
lure the turee boys, took to swapping jukets
tor a limuo, and calculating how much thev
had made by the exchange and re-e\eha<re
when after all, there were but three ratted
jackets between them. So the speculators
have been swapping bank credit for lands
and merchandise, and counting their gains,
and calling a!! this immense prosperity and
j activity in business, when, in point of fuel it
( was nothing more than a struggle of cunning
between jiiavers with false dice, too see who
| should strip ihe rest.
We have seen the operations of this inordi
nate love of acquiring wealth without honest
labor, transforming a people, which, of all
others, should be a laboring peopie, into a
nation of speculators and stock-jobbers, until,
with a country vast enough and sufficiently
fertile to feed all Europe, we have been even
obliged to import our own breadstuff*!
And why was thisf Hail it been deemed
as honorable to dig as to speculate, would it
ever have happened that tlipse United States,
with a single Stale. (New York,) possessing
more acres than all England, should come to
Ire dependant on that country for bread ?
No, fellow-citizens: it is not a merely ac
.cidental combination of things or pressure of
limes, that has brought about the recent con
vulsion in the business concerns of this great
people. It is no removal of bank deppsites
from the vaults of a bank on the one side of
a street to the vaults of banks on the other
side, that lias careened, and nearly upset the
ship. It is no veto of a National Bank that
has prevented honest people from paying
their debts and living within their means; it is
no Specie Circular that has seduced all the
world to throw down the fine and the ban*
mcr, and stick a pen behind their ears, to
calculate the rise and fall of fancy stocks.
The evil lies deejier, and further back. It
is in the system of Government which the par
ly who regard labor as machinety, and false
credit as capital, have been striving, and are
now stiniggling to fasten on the country.
It has been long working and coming to a
crisis; and now that it has exploded, the great
contest is whether it shall he again revived,
to be again exploded. Its foundation was
laid by Hamilton, in the funding system and
a national debt. He went out of the Consti
tution to make the Constitution stronger, and
prop it up by a National Bank, which has
continued the system until its final overthrow
in the eruption of the deposits banks.
Instead of imitating the candor of Hamil
ton when he found his fears not realized at
the end of two years, his disciples of the pres
ent day, with the experience of a prosperous
and glorious Republic of more than sixty
| years’ duration, seem bent ob practising upon
but one maxim, ’role or ruin.’ If they
j cannot govern the people, they are resolved
that the people shall not govern themselves.
Although the severest test of time and cir
cumstances has demonstrated that the ‘ equal
ity of political rights,’ which even their dis
j tinguished chief declared to be the foundation
!of pure Republicanism, can be obtained con
sistently with order, yet I lie leaders of the
Opposition insist upon exclusive privileges,
inequality of laws as well as of condition, and
a great paramount money Bower, as the only
safeguards of the splendid Government which
they wish to establish for the benefit of the
few at the expense of the many. They re
gard inequality of political rights as indispen
sable to the accumulation of wealth; and the
preservation of the rights of property as the
only legitimate aim of Government, irrespec
tive of the rights of person, wherever they are
supposed to interfere with individual and cor
porate acquisition of riches.

OBITUARY.
In announcing the death of James 11. Iverson to
this community, where he was so well known, there
will a pang shoot through many a heart, for he was
beloved by all his acquaintances. But the tale must
be told, for the deed lias been done. Dealh drew his
bow upon him more than a year ago, anJ pluntcd a
mtrtxtiruiug ariow in Ins hViart which drank up its last
drop of life blood on the 14th inst. in the city of New
Orleans. At the early age of tiecr.ty-six he has gone
dov. n to the tomb, closing his eyes forever upon all
that portion of lift so universally interesting to man.
With the hope of re-estabi slung his health, which
was rapid y declining, he had started for the Havana,
where he designed passing the winter; but the ways
of the Creator are not as the ways of man, and in his
inscrutable wisdom, he thought proper to arrest his
career, and take him to himself. A friend of the de
ceased who was with him in his last moments, thus
writes to his brothers in this city:
• I arrived here last week from Europe, and found
your brother James fist sinking under the disease
which terminated his life this morning at one o’clock.
Yet, whatever melancholy feehflls this distressing
intelligence may awaken, it will be a source of conso
lation to his fritnds and relatives to know that he was
supplied wiih every comfort and attention necessary
j to alleviate Ins condition, and that if medical skill or
| brotherly kindness could have availed to prolong his
; existence, it “ould not now be the sad task of one of
his warm, st friends to itifoim them of his untimely end.
Indeed it is singular to relate that he was so free of
pain, and in such high spirits, that to the very last mo
ment he entertained hopes of recovery, and fully cal
culate'.! on starting in a few days for Cuba.
While I fee] the deepest sympathy and regret for
‘he loss if an esteemed friend, I still feel a satisfaction
I in being able to bestow on him (so far from his friends
j and hi.- home) those last sad duties which devolve on
me in attending to his inteiment.’
In a land of strangers,far from his kindred and home,
he sleeps with the si.cut dead; but in the onward
| course of time we shall meet him again, as we hope, in
: * brighter world. Farewell my friend ; green be the
i turf above ihy grave—peace to thy mouldering ashes.

Miss JULIA BELCHER,
Teacher in Vocal and Instrumental Music.
ON rlie first Monday in January ne.u, the School
will t k > possession of the new and spacious
■SEMINARY BUILDING, in the Grove ; and for
tiie general informal ion of persons from a distance,
notice is given, that Board for Pupils can be obtained
m the most respectable families in our town, at prices
varying from TWELVE to FOURTEEN DOL
LARS per month, fuel, lights, washing, <J-s. included.
The course of instruction in this Institution, is thor
ough, complete, and as- extensive, as in the most approv
ed Northern Semin rits. Our Teachers are all Pupils
of the Female Seminary in Northampton, ut.der the
care of Miss Dwight, and have been, by her, selected
for, and highly recommended to the Trustees of this
Institution. Miss Belcher is a Pupil of Lowell Mason,
Esq. of Boston, and brings us his in st unqualified
recommendations.
The discipline and studies in each department are
carefully adapted to the ages and standing of the
Pupils, and in each, the Bible is a book of daily study
and recitation,-being regarded, not only as the means
of enlightening the conscience and purifying the heart,
but as the basis of all correct education.
Already many of the Pupils in this Seminary are
from distant and different parts of this and the neigh- j
boring State; and for their greater convenience the
Scholastic year will in future be divided into three 1
terms of four months each—commencing respectively j
on tlie first Mondays in January, May and September. :
At the cn.iof the first and second terms, there will j
be given vacations of about ten days each, and the I
month of December, one of four weeks. The annual ;
examinations will be held in Augu.-t, at the end of the
second term.
K ATES OF TUITION, .AS HERETOFORE I

The only extra charges in this Seminary, are for

Each to be paid for in advance.
Lessons in Vocal Music of a half hour in each day,
are given gratuitously to the whole School, which with
Calesthenic exercises to be revived, affords a delight
ful and profitable recreation.
To parents wishing to educate their daughters,
thoroughly, and at home, this Institution offeis the
best possible advantages. The permanent fund of the
Seminar--, contributed by our citizen?, enables us,
with very low tuition rates, to furnish teachers of the
highest intellectual and moral character, and in such
numbers, that every Pupil is particularly attended to.
It is intended to furnish a teacher for every twenty
scholars.
Our town we fearlessly assert to be as healthy as
any in Ike State—our population is decidedly moral,
and in our Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian
Churches, the Gospel is fa-thfully and regularly preach
ed, and Sabbath Schools maintained.
