F‘.r the Sentinel am! Hrrald. 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. EXTRACT FROM HALLETT’S ORATION.’ 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. MARRIED On Monday Evening. 19:h inst. by the Rev. Win. .Sanford, Mr. Edvard Barnard lo Miss Lucy J. Bar row both of ibis < itv. 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. W. COLUMBUS PBICES CUBRENT. CORKECItD WEEKLY BY ALLEN ANI) YOUNG. ARTICLES.

DEWEY. ) .Miss HARRIET CI.ARKS, [ Assistants. I Miss J 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 Primary Department, - - $24 per annum.

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.
