A ftcr treating thy rea ders to the grave disquisitions of such men as Daniel Webster, Wm. C. Rives, !Ienry Clay, Silas Wright, and Nicholas Middle on the currency and finances of the country, it was hut right that we should be agreeably and pleasantly re lieved bv such an effusion, and which for depth of research and originality of tho’t and expression, and clear and enmpre hensive eximina hm of the whole sci ence of political economy, mint astonish every leader. That one small head can carrv all that the author of that piece, knows, is certainly remarkable, and how, with the knowledge and eloquence that he possesses, he can suffer his genius to j io buried in obscurity or cramped in the ordinary pursuits of life, is b< yond cal cula’ion!! But, respec'ed friend, it would have been well for thee to have prepared ilie public by previous annunciation for the rich treat which they received this morn ing. The I.mgh should not have been all to thvse’l. Or if that was not conve nient, there should have been placed over the piece the word 11 Amusiinc.”—or the phraz'1 4iA cube f k the Blues/’ or some thing that would have given us notice to prepare to br lid,ltd. The author of the piece is entirely un known to me, but be ought to be known *o the public, fie who can pour forth such h fl »od of light upon a dark subject, as A Republican has done, and en light «*n< his readers whilst they are splitting their sides at every line they read, de serves immortality. It is not every one w ho has the lumpy faculty of being grave and serious himself whilst he draws shouts of laughter from those around him. 1 trust we shall hear, through thy paper, often, in these dull times, from the facetious writer who calls himself A Re publican.
