"Save liinierir who ran."
JUDGE REYNOLDS HAS BACKED OUT FROM
DR. REDMAN'S ODIOUS CURRENCY
BILL.
I!ac desertion ol" his friend in
Howard, and in the Stale!
(fc-We publish to-day the reply of Judgo Rey
nolds, to those citizens of Monroe who had cate
chized him on the question of the Currency Bill,
and hope our friends will give it wide circulation.
and upon the wings of the wind spread it to every
corner of the state. It has covered the office-hold-
crs in this place with confusion and consternation,
and as will be observed, appears in the Democrat
without even an allusion. How they grated their
teeth upon its reception can only be inferred fron
their sending it to the world still-born, without no
tice or endorsement.
The leading friend of the Judge, in this county
arc strongly committed to the bill, as reported to
the House of Representatives by Dr. Redman ; and
his leading friends in the State are committed to it
as it passed the lower brunch of the Legislature
The leaders here were hence thunder-struck when
the Monroe chatechism made itsappearance, and by
artful language undertook to convey the impression
that the Judge could not receive it in time to pre
pare an answer. A letter was also despatched, and
published irt Monroe, creating the sumo impression
but Judire Reynolds is an old and sly fox hud
traversed the sta'o from one extreme to the other.
and ascertained for himself that he could not pad
the odious bill, and hence his reply silently published
in the Democrat in which ho tukes off hi hat und
very quietly bids it good bye, and in langusgo which
none can misunderstand, exclaims at the top of hi
voice "&ave himself who can."
This was exceedingly unkind in the Judge, and
we assure him his friends in these parts will curse
him in their hearts from this until the election, he
having forced upon them the necessity of eating
their own words and fucing to the right about, or
going for a ticket which carries wuter on both
shoulders. They may decide this matter just us
they please eat their own words face to the right
about carry water on both shoulders curse Judge
Reynolds go for all the odious currency bill, or a
small part of it back out, as their great lender and
champion has been forced to do, or stand up to the
rack -they may do either or all these things, and
yet our prediction will stand the same they are
doomed to encounter the lasting curses of an honest
and indignant people, and look in the face a Whig
majority in Howard on the first Monday in August!
We therefore conclude this racy and hasty arti.
clo, by calling particular attention to the answer
under consideration. We ask the voters to look at
the prohibitions, the oaths, the indictment, the
depositing of FREEMEN in tho JAIL and PENI
TENTIARY, the forfeiture of office, and other
matters which fill up Dr Redman's currency bill,
and then read the reply of Judge Reynolds, which
medestly contends for confining tho banks nf other
States to notes of the same size issued by our own,
and expresses his DISAPPROBATION of every
thing else. In fuct, he expressly says " would
make no distinction between our bank and thou
of other Stales, und thus aroid retaliation' the
very identical doctrine contended fur in the hand
bill of Mr. Kbinu, and for publishing which he has
been so much slandered and abused !
The truth is, Judge Reynolds is out against the
entire bill of Dr. Redman, to part of which being
fortunate enough to procure his endorsement. This
much, then, has been accomplished fur the people
of Missouri by tho ardent and untiring efforts or
tlie Patriot Whigs of the State, and we give them
eternal honor for their all embracing and important
achievement..
Will Dr. Redman support his own bill, or iheback
oul proposition of Judge Reynold I And what will
the other locc foco candidates do 1 We pause fuf
a reply.
AN Honest .MAN Again Persecuted.
07At Franklin, on Wednesday lust, in the pub
lic discussion of the Currency Bill, a controversy
grew up between Col. Birch and Dr. Redman, in
relation to tho wording of the new U. States Bunk
notes. As stated in the following certificate, Dr
Redman culled upon Mr. Cooi'Kii fur one of the
notes nf said hank, and in an exulting und cheerful
tone read it off "the Bank of the United St iles oj
Pennsijhania." The exact language used by the
Ductor in the flourish of trumpets which succeeded
die above niiounct:uitntl will nut be reported, but
the note found its way (o the J.umUuf CM. Ln.cn,
who inslauliy exposed the fuLehoud, uud in I. is pie-
rncc and that of I'll? assembled multitude, took the
following certificate, which will speak Ibr itself
with ail hnnorablo men.
"Wo whoso names are hereto subscribed hereby
certify that, near Franklin, on the 15th day of July,
1840, Dr. J. W. Redman called upon Joseph Cooper
if nana mm a post note on the linnk or the United
State., (No. 222, letter F. Sent. 1, 1838.) nnd that
he (Redman) read it, and stated that it read "(he
Hank of the United States of Pcnnsyhania." All
of us have read said note, (most of us on the spot,)
and declaro thnt it .lid not nor does not so read.

This certificate was taken noi for tho mere
purpose of railing Doctor Redman still clo
ser to tho counter. lie is already unlr the
counter, and this mutter is exposed fur no other pur
pose than to put people upon their guard in relation
to olhcr notorious fabrications for a man who
will read falsely frrm one document will read false
ly from another and who can conceive the private
meanness of a man who will expose himself to be
oroved a deliberate LIAR in the face of the multi
ludo, and from tho public hustings !
This, however, is only a part of tho knavery
which this man has been detected nnd exposed.
Awaro that tho people vrcro nearly tired of the
slung whanging of such men as himself, and that
they had commenced calling for " documents,'
has carefully prepared an old book, in which he has
ns carefully pasted all the falsehoods and slanders
which appear in tho Hickory Club, ond other kin
drcd prints, and actually draws uut the scrap book
referred to, and attempts to impose it upon his IV
followers as documentary evidence. This is no fi
lion, but can be proved upon him by citizens from
ill parts of the county !
It is in. necessary for us to call particular atten
lion to tho names appended to the certificate abovi
published. Those ofMessr'. Robiuson, Settle, Switz-
ler, Walker, Stipe, Riddlcsbarger, and Patten, nn
known to the whole county; nnd Mr. Lancaster.
who is something of a stranger, is the eloquent nnd
popular minister of that name, who happened to be
present. v e also take Uie liberty ot returriug to

was Dr. Lowry, nnd several other leading friend:
of Mr. Van Lurch's administration.

THE CANVASS BRIGHTENS.
We have letters ami statements from various
'pmrters, ami can assure our fi ioiuls that, unless all
appearances arc deceptive, tbero arc tho strongest
grounds for hope that, we shall carry Missouri.
Reynolds has again been beat down in face to
face encounters wiih Clark, as we aro assured not
on.) uv our u n, uui me correspondence or our co -
temporaries, and' again, at our latest dates, he had
fallen in his rear, and was trnitiriT the man who!
. . . '
linil proven himself so much Ins overmatch.
In a letter to a friend in this place, Gen. C. him
self alludes to this gross and cowardly unfairness,
and speaks of his determination to force the Judge
to go along with him from Morgan throughout the
South Western Counties, or at all events to keep
him oft' bis trail. Such a course hns become abso-
lutcly necesnry in reference to a man who, as pub
lished in the Correspondence of '.he New Era two
weeks ngo, denounced even the quotations, to the
fairness of which his neighbors of the Central Com
mittee, had plei'ged their names and their honor,
.is "a pack of federal lies!" Such a man, by such
means will win the olfice of Governor (if ut all) at
a sacrifice which no one fit to till it could be forced
to make while the honorable and manly course of
Clark, has reared up for him friends in every
county similar to those ho lias left at homo men
who will voto for him as well because they can
honor and trust him, as because they believe him
best fit to fill the station of Chief Magistrate of
the State.
Courage, friends ! Two weeks jiohe and ij
your canuiduteis even beaten (which tee donol be
lieve) he w ill coma out of the contest with clean
hands, unsullied honor and with the proud con
sciousness that the flag of the Whigs has not been
tarnished, but rendered brighter by his bearing.

WHO REFUSES TO SPEAK?
D3" All our candidates ore now before the
pcoplo in plain and explicit language, and it re
mains to be seen whether tho Loco Focos who
chargo every thing and prove nothing who
charge tho Whigs with concealing their principles
whether thty will come forth and condescend
to lift the veil from their faces. Tho people will
not tako theso men on credit, and they had as well
unmask themselves at once. Let us have their
views upon one term and a four years tenure
upon a new and properly guarded National Bank
upon Mr. Van Buicn's army bill and upon
tho currency bill distinguishing whether they
are for the bill as introduced by Dr. Redman
or us amended and voted for by Mr. Rawlins
or in accordance with the Jueifc out proposition of
Judic Reynolds. The people aie determined to
ivc the views of the Loco Focos on these pro
positions at least, and a l others which they may
deem interesting. Come out gentlemen, in black
and while.
SAVE HIMSELF WHO CAN.
Oic of the Parly already gives it vp !
D3"In our lust number we requested the
Whigs to make a dold cuakge upon the reck.
ws nnd bragging Loco Focos, and predicted
"clinging and knuckling," instead of "insult nnd
dictation," before u week. Two days, instead of
a week, mule ,i:ood our assertion in the person of
Mr. Owen Rawmss, who read from the journal
on Monday, ot Mahsiiali.'s, to show his vote in
opposition to one of the most obnoxious sections
of tho currency bill the investigation oi" which
has aroused tho entire pcoplo ! Three wicks
go but few knew, and u till .smaller number
believed, that the representatives of Howard had
ntrodueed and voted for a law to put free men
IN JAIL for oll'uiiiig or receiving an Indiana,
Illinois or Kentucky note ; but the Whig
candidates have proved it upon them, nnd the
locos ore literally (lying before the indignation of
a highly insulted people ! !
We urge it, therefore, upon the Whigs to
huige tho bragging luco focos. Prove to
tin voters that our line n picsenlalives voted
fur a law to p t them IN JAIL for offering to pay
or receivo a non-spacie payinu bank nolo. Show
ip the ruinous t' ndency of this disgraceful mea-
ure, and our guess for it, the people of Howard
will permit these curiiencv tinkers to remain
at homo not ONE, but ALL of tlu-m. We go
for a clear deck.
THE DEED IS Du.NE!
The Sub Treasury bill, passed the House on the
30th ult., it having previously passed tho Semite,
mid now only requires the signature of the Presi
dent to become a law. Thus one of tho mo-t odi
ous and ruinous measures ever proposed to a free,
sovereign people, has Uen forced upon us. The
last St. Louis Argus, proi luims its passogo with
the cut. of a Log Cabin in ruins ut the heud. Very
emblematic. A mure true und striking picture
could not be given, of tho effect this si-home will
have upon tho Log Cabins ol tho country it will
;auu their downfall, their ruin. Murk this pre
diction, ye who live in Log t'ubins unless this vile
measure, bo blown up, the measure will blow vou
up, uud unless Vun Eurcn's udmiuisliulion be blown
up it will continue in full futcv.

iinderlakcs to place upon the notice taken by Mr
Krino, of iho notorious interference of tho office
holders in our elections, is unfair nnd uiiiiist--ns

a -public candidate, in speaking of the public

It will be seen by reference to another column,

We take from the Charleston Courier the follow

of November, to Judge Berrien, of Georgia.
This letter knocks the last hope from under Iho loi

tho lust montn endorsed all his political opinions
formerly expressed, ho stands now before the
American people, not only pledged tn go as far as
Mr. Van Buren will go in discountenancing any at

Copy if a letter from General Hairisonlo J. M
Her ricn, E:a.
Nt:.i: New Lancaster, Mi Nov. 1u8(J.
Aly Dear Sir This is tho first day of leisure thnt
I have had sinea I had tho honor to rcciiveyour
letter of the nihil September and I avail myself ol
it to answer tho three rinnstions vou nrunose to me.
and which are in tho following words, viz :
1st. "un the l.ungrijss of tho United States, con-
islentiy with the Constitution, abolish sluv. rv
ither in Ilia Stiles, or in tho District of Colum'
mi !
lid "Do not good faith and the peace nnd Inrmri-
ny ot the Union require that Iho act for the
mproinisc ot tho 1'ariif. coimu uilv known us Mr.
Clay's bill, should h curried out. :icciin!iii.r in ii.i
pint and intention? j
lid. '-Is the principle pruelaiMcl by the dominant j
party, thnt. 'thospuils belong to tlie victors, ' con-1
i'tintwiih an hones!, nnd oaiio'ic ai'ministraiiuii I
of Iho Ollico of l'rii e,:t Ol' tie! I'.h'mI States." I
I proceed to answer llioso u i.-s i ,,, - in t!,n onlnr
thev are nroroie i
1-t. I do not think thai. Conres. ran abolish, tr I
ui uuy manner inienerc wan 'lav. ry as it exists in
tin.' S'ates, hot i.p' ii the iioiuic.-ition of ii,c tf-ates
ii' r aboil-h si ivery in the J'i-tr;i'i ut' Columbia.
w itiioul. the c..nswit ul the states of Virginia uud
.Wary land, and the people of the District. The first
would be, in my piiiinn, a tnli.abie violation of the
v-onsiiiiiMon ami iuo lat:rr, a Invticli u! faith to
wards the Miiics I have mentioned, who would cer
tainly not have made the ces-ion, if tjiry had sup
posed that. it. would ever be used fur a "purpose so
different from that which was its uhioct, and so in-
uriuus to them, us tho location of a free colored
popui i'ioii, in the midst ot tbe-.r -lave Roiiulatiuu ol
be suu,e description. Nor do I believe that l.'on-
;re-s cuiud deorive tho uoou u of iho Liisirict. nf
.'oluiniiia, of their properly, without their consent,
i would be reviving tho doctrines of the Tories of
i rent Britain, m relation to the nov.nrs uf
I nrliaii.cnt over the Colonics, before the revolu
tionary war, and i.i direct hostility t.u the nrincinle
idvancud by Loid Iji.auiani that "what wns mini's
wn, wa s absolutely ami exclusively his own, and
mid not be taken Irniu him, without his consent,
iven by himself, or bis legal representative"
'J.l. tiuod faith and ihe peace und harmony of the
ni'.n do, in my u pinion, icquire that, '.lie comprjm
i.; of tho Turin", known ns Air. Cay's bill, should
bo carried out according to its spirit mid intention.
o.t. I uni (leeoleiiiy ol opinion, that the power ol
itii.initinrtit to uiu.jo vested in tiio Executive of the
tilted Slates bv the Constitution, should be used
with a single eye to tho public ud vantage, nnd nut tu
iromotc the interests ut a part v. lmloed. that the
side.U of the United Sulci should belong to no
parly.
lou are at liberty to uso this letter ur any pur
se you may think proper.
I am, dear sir. with gre.it regard and consider
ation, Your humble servant,
