ay, they would be very ctiutic. of giv
ingl him their support. But the candid
ate is silent upon this head, and the peo
ple do not take the trouble to enquire.
It should be the duty then of editors,
who belong to the side of the people, to
be vigilant in this matter.
Let us then in reference to these prin
ciples, look to the character ofthe pres
ent candidates for the Gubernatorial
chair, and ascertain if possible, the par
ty to w hich each really belongs. Not
for the purpose of electioneering, but
merely for information. ■ As we have
insuperable objections to all the can
didates, we do not take any interest in
the matter or. our own account, and
merely advert to it as a subject which
may concern our readers. The people
have a right to look to us for informa
tion upon this subject as well as others,
and we will therefore give them the
beneiit of our observations.
Anti first of Mr. Gilmer; what is he?
we think there can be no doubt of his
belonging wholly and entirely to the ar
istocracy. He is an advocate of the
Central Bank, recommends the appro
priation of' money for the support of
the college, he is a nullifier and goes in
for the penitentiary. And here we
will mention another precious scheme
of the aristocracy. It is to exempt the
gold mines from the operation of the
lottery, and to sell them and place the
money in the Central Bank, for the
beneiit ofthe aristocrats. This is deci
dedly against the interests of the peo
ple; because if the mines were disposed
of with the other domain ofthe State,
the poor man would have an equal chance
with the rich, of drawing a valuable prize.
But should they be sold and the proceeds
placed in the Central Bank, tlie benefits
would fall exclusively on the wealthv,
who alone can borrow from that bank.
Yet this scheme originated with Mr. Gil
mer. We may therefore safely put him
down among the aristocrats. lie is an
enemy of the people, and the people can
not consistently with their own rights and
interests vote for him.
And secondly, to which party does Mr.
Lumpkin belong? And this it is, for
which we find fault with him. He does
not come out like a free man, and wear
his true colors openly, in fair weather &
foul. He lias never taken a decided
stand, and wedded himself, for good and
for evil, for better and for worse, to ei
ther party. But he likes to glide along
betwixt and between, sometimes shouting
in the ranks of the people, and then a
gain charging on with the foremost of
the aristocrats. Now we abhor all du
plicity; we like to see every man’s honest
face, without any mask on it, and then
wc can judge of its culor. We belong to
the people, and we wish to know our
friends, and confront our enemies. We
are plain, straight-forward going editors,
and understand nothing of trick & man
agement. Were Mr. Lumpkin avowedly
against us, we could meet him in open
and honorable opposition. And were be
decidedly and consistently with us, we
Could go in for him, tooth and toe nail.
But these amphibious animals, that can
neither he roasted as flesh, nor fried as
fish, truly, we don’t know what to do with
them. May the old Nick keep them for
his own cooking, say we.
Next there is Tom Haynes. He comes
out plain enough, and tells what he is now,
and what he is going to be. No one can
complain of his equivocation. We ad
mire cpndor and openness, and we owe it
therefore to Tom Haynes, in return for
the undisguised manner in which he has
declared his principles, to say, that he has
enlisted, unreservedly, on the popular
side; and had he just sense enough to
keep out of the fire, we would advise our
friends to go in for him. But something
besides mere will, mere inclination, is es
sential to success, in him who undertakes
the cause of the people. Talent is ne
cessary, disinterested honesty is necessa
ry; and how much of these Tom Haynes
is in possession of we will leave his
friends to ascertain.
Having therefore dropped a few hints
Which will enable our readers to ascertain
the principles and party attachments of
the Candidates, we will drop the subject
for the present.

UNITED STATES BANK.
Mrt. Eoitor: Among the miinerous
opinions of the first Statesmen in the
country that have been in favor of the U
nited States Bank over other banking in
stitutions, we will notice that of Mr. Jef
ferson in a letter to a meinlter of Congress
in 1813. “He saw and deplored the
worthless state of the circulating medium
issued by the .State Banks.
“By the insolvency of these Banks he
says, a sum is thus swindled from our cit
izens, of seven times the amount of the
teal debt of the United States, at the dose
of the war. All this they will justly
charge on their legislatures ; but this w ill
.be poor satisfaction for the two or
three hundred millions they will have
cost. It is time for the public func
tionaries to look to this. Perhaps it may
not be too late. Perhaps by giving time
to the Banks, they nitty call in and pav
ofl by degrees. But no remedv is ever
to he expected while it rests with the state
Legislatures. Personal motives can lie
exerted through so many avenues to their
will, that in their hands, it will continue
to go oil through bad to worse until the
catastrophe overwhelms us. I still be
lieve, however, that, on proper representa
tions ot the subject, a great proportion of
these Legislatures would cede to Congress
their power of establishing Banks,
saving the charter rights already granted.”
Again “I believe that every State, west
and south of Connecticut River, except
Delaware would, immediately do it,& oth
ers would follow in time. Congress would
ot course begin by obliging unchartered
Banks to wind up their offices within a
short time, and the others, as their char
ters expired, forbidding the subsequent
circulation of their paper.”
'1 here is perhaps no man whose opin
ion is ottener quoted on constitutional
questions than Mr. Jeffersons; he having
ever been considered one of its most able
expounders: and that too by the very
men who denounce the United States
Bank as unconstitutional.
1 he United States Bank r has succeed
ed in occasioning the resumption of spe
cia payments by the State Banks and no
thing else could” have effected this impor
tant object.
“The Committee of ways and means
for 183d, state that they are aware, that
the opinion is entertained by some, that
the local Bank... would at some time or
other,either voluntarily, or by coercion ol
the State Legislatures, have resumed spe
cie payments. In the very nature ofthe
case this would seem to he an imppossi
hility.
And again : “Deep and deleterious,
therefore as the disease was, in many of
the States, their Legislatures could not
have expected to apply jn remedy so pain
ful as the compulsion of specie payments
would have been without the aid of the
Bank of the United States. And how
did this this Bank conipell the local Banks
to redeem their bills with specie; by un
generously oppressing them ; Far from it.
The committee of ways and means de
clare—“And here it is worthy of remark,
that while that Bank had compelled the
local Banks to resume specie payments,
it has most materially contributed, by its
direct and liberal arrangements, to enable
them to do so, and that witli the least pos
sible embarrassment to themselves and
distress to the community.”
“Many of the local Banks have been
saved by assistance front this Institution,
and more are constantly relieved when it;
is found they are solvent and suffering j
under temporary difficulties.” Who al
ter having witnessed the salut- ry effects,;
ofthe United States Bank in producing j
in this inanu<-r a good currency through j
the country, who I say will raise his voice
against rechartering it; none except those J
who would sacrifice the public good to the
interest of a few local Banks that need
watching. This Bank is the best cen
tinel to guard the rights of the people by
performing that duty.

Perpetual Fire. —ln the peninsula of!
Abelieron, in the province of Schirwan
formerly belonging to Persia, but now
to Russia, there is found a perpetual, or
ns it is (here called, an eternal fire. It
rises or has risen from time immemori
al, from an irregular orifice of about 12
feet in depth, and 12ft feet in width,with
a constant flame.—The flame rises six
or eight feet, is unattended wiih smoke, 1
and yields no smell. The finest turf
grows about the borders, and at the dis- j
tanee of two toises are two springs of |
water. The inhabitans have a venera
tion for this fire, and they celebrate it
with religious ceremonies.
