A stranger child, one winter eve, Knocked at a cottage-maiden's door: A pilgrim at your hearth receive; Hark.' how the mountain-torrents roar!" Bit e'er the latch was raised. "Foibar!" Cried the pale parent from above; 'The pilgrim child, that's weeping there, " Is Love!" The Spring-tide came and once again, With gsrland crown'd, a laughing child Knocked at the maiden's casement pane And whispered, "Let me in!" and smiled. The casement soon was opened wide The stars shone bright the bower above; A:llo! the miiden's couch b.-side, S.ooJ Love! id mi'e, and sighs, and kisses sweet, B-'juilei brief summer's careless hours; And Autumn, Labor's sons to greet, Came forth, with corn, and fruit and flowers.

And Winter cam3, and hopes and fears Alternate swelled her virgin breast; Sat none were there to dry her tears; Or hush her anxious cares to rest.

There being a majority of democrats in both branches of the Le gislature, a large majority's voting for it in the house on a recorded vote there being no op position to it in the Senate. Is not this a demo cratic Bank! RECAPITULATION OF BANKS. Gov. McNutt, the Democratic, anti-bank candi date for Governor of the State of Mississippi, is recorded as voting for the following Banks, with the following capitals: Capital taken from Be sangon's Register 1838. To wit. 1st. The Citizens Bank of Madison countv, capi tal, this amount, $1,000,000 2nd. Commercial Bank of Co lumbus, 1,000,000 3rd. Aberdeen and Pontotoc ) Rail Road and Banking 1,000,000 Companv. J 4th. Tombecbee Rail Road Company, 2,000,000 5th. the Bank of Granada, 1,000,000 G:h. The Benton and Manches ter Rail Road and Bank ing Company, 1,000,000 . $7,000,000 Although no vote was recorded in the Senate, on the following banks, the record shoes, that Gov. Mc.Nctt was favourable to their passage. To wit. 1st. The Commercial Bank cf Rodney, 8800,000 2nd. Lake Washington and ) Deer Creek Rail Road 600,000 Company. 1 - 3rd. Commercial Bank of Man chester, 82,000,000 4ih. Bank of Vicksburg, 2,000,000 5th. Nothern Bank of Mississippi capital reduced from 2,000,000 to 1,000;000 86,400.000 81,000,000 500,000 81,500,000 6th: Hernando Rail Road and Banking Company, 7th. Vicksburg Water-Works SI 4, 900,000 Fourteen millions nine hundred thousand dol lars capital, which Gov. McNutt sanctioned the passage of, for more than half of which his vote stands recorded. . Previous to the year 1836, bank capital had been chartered to the amount of 81 1 ,212,000 To wit. Planters Bank, Agricultural Bank, Commercial and Rail Road Bank of Vicksburg, West Filiciana Rail Road and Banking Company, 84,212,000 2,000,000 4,000,000 1,000,000 811,212,000 And during Gov. McNutt's service as a mem ber of the Legislature; the Union Bank was char- teid triih a capital of XfrSft The Brandon Bank, 4,OUU,wu The Commercial Bank of Natchez, 3,100,000 $22,600,000 Gov. McNutt voted against the two lastmeu tioned banks; and he also voted against the Union Bank, but he also voted against amotion to re ject that Bank, and aLo against its indefinite postponement This is taken from the act of incorporat ion. The Register docs not give it. Thus we find that Gov. McNutt voted for and sanctioned bank capital to the amount of fourteen minions nine hundred thousand dollars: That at the time he thus voted, there was hanlr ranitii already chartered in this State to the amount of eieven millions two hundred thousand dollars; making an aggregate of twenty six millions one hundred and twelve thousand dollars.8 25,112,000 Yet in his message of 1839, the Governor, this same A. G. McNutt, holds this language. "The statement herewith submitted shows the present chartered banking capital of the Slate to be sixiy three millions four hundred and fifty thousand three hundred dollars, and the amount paid in to b3 twenty six millions, eight hundred and seven teen thousand eight hundred andeighty-three dol. lars. On the capital paid in the bank, are now authorized to issue sixty-seven millions one hun dred and sixty-eight thousand one hundred and eleven dollars. Neither the commerce or wealth of the State can sustain, at present, a circulation OF MORE THAN SEVKN MILLIONS of dollars. The annual p oditaions of the s i , inclu ding cotto j, com and every ther article pro duced ; y ih - planters, and the value given to property by the labour of the mechanic, does not excee ' thirty-five millions of dollars. In somecountrie onedollar of circulation is es te. med sufficient for h rty dollars of product. o political economist has ever contended tha an, country requirrd more circulation than one fifth of the annual value of its products." (see Gov. McNutts message Sena e Journal, 8th January, 1839, pasre 26.) JNow when did the Gv. study political economy? "Was it before, o since he voted for seven mill o; s of b nk capital, and g ve his sanction to seven millions nine hundred thousand more, as a member of the Legis lature, in add tion to the e.even millions two hundred and twe ve thousand dollars, pre viously chartered? Was it before or sin e he san tiored the Union B nk cha ter of fifteen millions and a half of d-dlars as Governor? The extract bove quoted st .te?, that seven millions of circulation, is sufficiei t for this State! There is a kind of logic about this political economy, -which shows that Gov. McNutt h is recently studi ed that science, or that he is is a veiy incon sistent politician. rvWe will take one other recorded fact, and drop the subject 18th. POST NOTES. Gov.

It is the same bill, too, which was indefinitely i ostponed in Senate, (page 82,Senate Journ 1, april & may 1837.) It will be kept in mind th t both houses in troduced post note bills, and were c nsider ingthem at the same ' time. The house bill was lost in the Senat ; Senate bill passed both ranches. The bill from the Senate was received in the House, at page 131 Hou e Journal. At page 112. this bill from the Senat3 was ron idere 1 and amend ed; page 143 gives the vote on its final pas sage, and the ayes nJniys s-tanl thu-: .ves Mr. Speaker, ( Vannerson) Messrs.

It will be seen that Mr. Brown who voted for the House ill was not recorded on this bill from the Senate. It will be remembered al so, that McNutt voted against the indeffi ni e postp nement at page 53, and f r it at page 82. He a so voted reguiar'y against theSenite bill all the way thro ;gh. Th s was in 1837, and pos notes wer recoramen dedby hi prekcess-r Gov. Lynch. But let us take an extract fro n Gov. McNut 's message to the Legis'ataro of 1833: Senite Journal 1833. p.icc 110 "Most of the sol vent banks of the Union will resume specie , James Ellis Farnr, F.tler, Fox, Fulton, Green, Jayne, King.
