t VOLUME XXX. COLUMBUS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 29. 1840. NUMBER 66. it0 3 .lt.f MWCUit FRIDAY, JULY 24, 1840. THE MINORITY REPORT. Our columns are almost exclusively occupied with a portion of the Minority Report on the New-Jersey caso. We shall give the remainder on Tuesday. No room is left us for remarks. The Report needs nothing from us to call the attention of every true friend of the institutions of his country to its careful perusal. When such high-handed usurpation as is here disclosed can go unrebuked, there will be little left of our representative system. ADJOURNMENT. Congress would adjourn on Tuesday last so says the Intelligencer of that morning. Much business remains undisposed of, So much for doing tho business if the parly, instead of the people. The Intelligencer remarks " It was a melancholy tight, last evening, to see the poor pension and other claimants, for whose relief bill had. already passed one House, hanging round the doors of the Legislative hall, sick to the heart from hope deferred. Two hours would be enough to relieve a hundred such, about whose cases there it no sort of doubt." COLES, AND STATE STOCKS. The Statesman is anxious to correct the impression that "the Slate will lose tome (20,000" by Gov. Shannon'! pet, Coles; but rejoices apparently that he has lelt the "Whigs minus some $70,000." Will the Statesman go little farther, and tell the public why it was that Coles was not a purchaser ol Slate Stocksl He made satisfactory offers to our " Bank Reform"' Covernour, who seemed anxious to accommodate him' and so earnest were the parties, that (Jen. Maocracken was sent for, to come up from Lancaster, to complete the arrangement. Yet, it was not done. Again, we ask, will the Statesman inform the public why it was not done so that Coles might have an opportunity of forcing off upon the labourers on the canal, some 100,000 dollars more of his irredeemable!, in payment of his proposed purchase! The Statesman must see that we are very ignorant on the subject, and therefore ask purely for information! We do not like to deal in rumours, and therefore want the facta. There is another branch of this subject, to which wa would like to call the invaligating mind of the Statesman editor: Who was it that saved the contractors and labourers from loss on Coins' Binghamp-ton Post Notes 1 Was it Mr. Commissioner Bates, Gov. Shannon, or the Treasurer of State f There is some little anxiety manifested on this subject, inasmuch as the Covernour and the Commissioner paved the way for this spurious emission. Tho people are anxious to learn whether it was through the vigilance and exertiont of the laid Commissioner and hit 41 Bank Reform" Gxcollency, or through the instrumentality of the Whig Treasurer. There is a rumour prevailing that it is the latter, and we are desirous of setting the public mind right. Can you tell us J We ask again for information 1 Once more, and we will let you up this time. Who are the Whigs that have suffered this heavy loss of 70,000 dollars, with which you seem so much pleas ed 1 Are they stockholders in the Circlcville, Manhattan, Galltpntis, or Washington Social Library Bank all, or either of them 1 There are various rumours on this subject, and we have heard it said that there is a very un-sociW feeling manifested by some of them, since the htgira of Coles, wholly unbecoming the former relations that existed between the parties. How much of the said 70,000 dollars falls on labourers on the canal, those men who manifested, according to your own showing, such a joy at receiving the genuine " Shannon specio-piying Bank paper" t And if you can tell us, we should delight to hear that all the receipts given by a certain Judge, for Bingharnpton Post Notes, to be paid in good money when exchanged, had been duly taken up, and the labourer put in funds. These may seem like small matters; but depend upon It, tin people attach some importance to them, And do, while ynnr hand is in, tell us whether you have yot got at the bottom of Gov, Shannon's loan of Coles. WHAT NF.XTt In tho Federal Van Buren call for a meeting on the 8th of August, the Statesman addresses itself to the "Friends f the illustrious Jaekson!" What doet this mean t It Van Buren to be dropped, and Jaekson to ba taken up 1 The Whale is in a flurry. Judging from the following appeal contained in the same notice : 11 Never desert the Democratic ship, ao on; at a plank remains, or a tingle rag fitatt from Ike mast-keadl!" Oh ho! some planks knocked off sprung a loak 1 Rats wiil leave a sinking ship. "CAN'T DO THAT WORK." The Sandusky Clarion of the 18th intt. contain! the renunciation of Roomy Latiiuop.

He is a mechanic, a carpenter, and formerly resided in the old 4lh Ward, in Ilia city of Albany, where he did good service in support of the Regency, and aided In giving force to the battle rry of the household troops ".fi goa Ike ilk Ward, to goa Ike Stale." But he hat eomo out from among them, and we are told that he goei not alone. He now lays "I am fur I change; let us try other rulers, fur we have been misruled quite too long." W hen inch men change, the tign it right, 27 Aarok Palmer, Esq., hat assumed the Editorial charge of the Toledo Blade, until after the Presidential Election. This it an accession in which ws rejoice. Mr. Palmer's Blaile will cut keen and deep. He was once, for a short limo, Editor of tht Hemisphere, in this city, Ilia Administration organ tt that time. Our readers will remember Mr. P.'s recent address, on leaving the ranks of the Spoilers. 87 The cause of the People is progressing; to title Is the Locofocoism, that " Whiggery riia at the country si'mai," and to natural it it for men to consider their own and their country' good.

THE EXPENDITURES OF OUR STATE GOVERNMENT.There is much inquiry on foot among the people, about tho expenditures of our State Government, as well as our National Government. The taxes of the people are increasing, and their means of payment are decreasing. There is something manifestly wrong in this condition of things, and the subject deserves attention. The great increase of expenditures under the administration of Mr. Van Buren, is pretty well understood leaving to the country a bankrupt Treasury, with a prospect of being obliged to resort to direct taxation. The waste and extravagar.ee of our State Government are not so well understood. We have given some specimens; we propose now to give some more, promising to follow it up as leisure shall permit. The following abstract shows the amount paid the State Printer, for printing the Laws, Journals, &c, from the session of 1821-25, to Ihe session of 1639-40. The amount for the different years U taken from official documents and carefully compared by a competent person. We ask the attention of Ihe people to their great increase, especially for the last three or four yean: Amount paid ihe State Punter: For the session of 1824-25, - g 1, 703 99 Do. 1825-20, - - 3,023 79 Do. 1820-27, 3,280 10 Do. 1827-28, - - 3,301 90 Do. 1828-29, - - 3,537 69 Do. 1829-30, - - 4,300 00 Do. 1830-31, 8,586 16 Total for seven years, $27,792 03 The following three years comprise the time in which Ihe Slate Printing was done by Dutid Smith: For Ihe session of 1831-32, - - 5,208 08 Do. 1832-33, - 5,738 96 Do. 1833-34, 8,282 41 Total drawn by Smith for three years, $19,230 05 Tho following three years comprise the time in which the State Printing was done by Jama B.

Yet lis swells hit account against the Slate to an amount exceeding Ihe turn paid Gardiner, $17,044 20 Bal. of appropriation for 1 839-' 10, 5,579 62 Add one tilth, being the reduction in price, 10,816 67 And we have the total of 33,430 49 paid, and to be paid, (or the whole appropriation is sura to be consumed,) to Samuel ttedary for the public printing, more than was paid Jama B. Gardiner, for the three years in which he did the public printing: Or, the grand total for the three yeais of Samuel Medary, charging at former prices, of $75,716 67!!! Showing an increase of nearly double in this branch of the publio expenditure! Is it any wonder that a man fattening thut at the public crib, ahould bo the advocate of theSub-Treasury should be in favor of a system, by which the price of produce and labour is reduced more than one half when, by the same system, every dollar drawn fiom the Slate Treasury becomes worth two in his hands from the same cause) Bowsn of such patent Democrats! They are wolvca in sheep's clothing, devouring Ihe substance of the flock ! Is it any wonder that our Taxes increase under such a waste ful and extravagant use of Ihe People's monryl BEAUTY OF CONSISTENCY. In the Senate of the U. S. on the 15th inst., Mr. Tap-pan brought forward a project of free banking as a proper remedy for all Ihe evils of Ihe present system. Ho mado a long argument on this subject, and promised to press it at some future time. His plan is simply lo abolish all exclusive banking privileges, and leave the trade in money as free as sny other trade; lo have no regulations of the currency, but to suffer it to regulate itself, like the culture of cotton or the manufacture of yarns. In short, the only law in relation to the subject of money, that he would retain, it the constitutional provision making specie Ihe only legal tender, and a law fixing tho standard dollar. Mr. Benton, of course opposed it, and denounced Ihe project. When will these men cease humbugging Ihe people ! They start project! to afford each other the gratification of knocking them over, and thus holding the public mind in suspense, without accomplishing anything for their relief, They would do well to cease tinkering. t'ipen gnawing at a file. The Looofonoei, vexed beyond measure at the evidence! of patriotio enthusiasm that meet them daily, are striking with Ihe envenomed fang of slander and defamation, at every thing thai it bright, and beautiful, and honorable. In their desperation they are reviling, in unmeasured terms, the Ladies who participated in the festivities of the Fourth of July. They remind ut of a natural phenomenon, familiar lo Ihe Log Cabin boyt of the Weal, which is, that on the approach of dug-days In July, until after they have passed in the full, the copper-headed make is so Irritable and malignant that it strikes at every thing it sees, but is so blind that It cannot sea any thing at which lo strike but what is exceedingly bright) The People are eomin gl The following Is from tho Rochester Democrat of the 17th.

The friends of Mr. Van Buren have made a great noise about the "Caged Hero" the " Lion in the Cage," and such like nonsensical matters, because Gen, Harrison, following in the " footsteps" of the Hero of New-Orleans, did not choose to repeat over and over again, on demand of every nine-pin alky keeper, his opinions on measures of Government poll cy but choso, rather, respectfully to refer the querists lo his already voluminous published opinions. They did not think, while they were trying to humbug the people on this subject abandoning the defence of the Administration, and running after this conceit, like a puppy after his tail, that their pomatumed and bewhiskered Fox, the Little Magician, would so soon be caught in his own trap. But so it is. He is fairly cornered at 3l caged. Like his prototype, he has doubled upon his track, and professed all sorts of opinions about men and measures, with a view of deceiving the people: At one time being opposed to the war, and then in favor of it a high tariff man, and then non-committal arrayed against executive encroachments, and then grasping at more than Kingly power an Abolitionist, and Ihcn a " Northern man with Southern principles" a friend of a United States Bank, then opposed to it; and anon going all lengths for a Treasury National Bank, issuing Treasury notes for circulation, although in favor of a specie currency, and opposed to all paper issues in short, after being on all sides of every prominent question that has been agitated for the last thirty years, he is now driven to a corner, and hat no opinion! at all ! ! The Wabash (Indiana) Courier gives the following account of the new position of Mr. Van Buren. The editor says "A fiiend has placed in our possession a MS, copy of a most extraordinary correspondence which has taken place between certain citizens of Danville, Illinois, and Ihe President of Ihe United States, which cannot fail to excite much attention. Among its signers we recognize some of Ihe most worthy and respectable inhabitants of Danville, of both political parties; and one of llieni, Dr. Alexander, is Register of the Land Office, and a brother to the gentleman who lately wrote a similar letter of enquiry lo Gen. Harrison. This correspondence originated in this way. The Van Burenitos boasted of the superior frankness of their favorite; and some of them went so far as to pledge themselves to an abandonment of their party, if, on application, the President refused direct, candid and explicit answers to any interrogatories about his political opinions, which might be propounded by a respectable portion of his fellow-citizens. The reader may therefore imagine the shock which their confidence in his candor received on the receipt of his most disingenuous, evasive, and quibbling reply. The only interrogatory entirely unimportant is the last one, and yet, because that alone edmils of a quibble, it will be seen that il is (he only one to which Mr. Van Buren makes the slightest reference !" The questions propounded wore seven in number, and hero follow: Danville, III. May 23, 1840. Mr, Van Buren, President U. States: You are now before the people of the United Slates for re-election. We claim il, as Ihe privilege of Citizens, to propose for your consideration and answer, the following interrogatories: 1st. If re-elected, should a bill pass Congress abolishing slavery in Ihe District of Columbia, would you approve Ihe lawt 2d. Do you approve of pre-emption lawsl 3d. Did you, or not, as a member of ihe Conv-tion of Amendments for amending the Cone'.'ulion of Ihe State of New-York, vole against a proposition to restrict the right of voting to white citizens! 4th. Did you, or not, vote in the same Convention to allow Negroes who were worth two hundred and fifty dolli, the right of voting! 6th. Did you, or not, advocate, in the lamo Convention, a properly qualification as necessary for all electors? 6th. Did you, or not, in the lamo Convention, propose and advocate the appointment of Justices of the Peace by Ihe Governors! 7th. Have you examined Holland's Life of Van Buren, of dale 1835; and, if so, is it a faithful and true history of your political opinions) Respectfully, your obedient servants, Wm. Knioht, W. Fitiiian, J. C. Alixanmcr, Geo. Mav, Milton Leslev, Michael Cline, Adam Sullivan, Wm. McKihbkn, D. II. Heed, Samuel Pahtlow, Wm. I. Moore. Did Mr. Van Buren answer these questions "frankly," as his deluded followers bad been induced lo suppose he would! Not he. And why! Because the elections in Ihe Western Stales, including In diana, Illinois, and Missouri, were coming on early in August, and he might embarrass kit friendt should he "define his position," and thus lose a fw rules! This is Ihe secret. Bui here follows hit frank, judicious, and manly answer, worthy of the man, and furnishing in epitome of his character: Washington, June S3, 1810. Gentlemen, I havo received a letter signed by yourselves and others, propounding to mo several questions, to which il is my intention lo reply in full seuson for the ohjeol you have in view. One of Ihein is in Ihe following words: "Have yon examined Holland's Life of Van Buren, (of date 1835.) and, if so, is it a faithful and true history of Vonr political opinion!" It has been suggested lo me, thai spurious copies of this work have heen put in circulation in Illinois, Il is therefore desirable tint you should send ine tho copy lo which your question relates, before I answer it. This I will thank you to do at your earliest convenience. When inspected, il shall be returned to you. I am, gentlemen, very rcspoclfully. your obedient servant, M. Van Dukkn. To Win. Fithian and John C. Alexander. On tltit pettifogging answer with a knowledge of the man's character which does him credit the editor of the Courier remarks: "We would now ask every candid and intelligent Van Buren man, (who loves republicanism and honesty more than he dors the head of his party,) would il not have been more honorable for Ihe 1'rcniilenl to havo refused any reply at til, than lo iiavo resorted lo so paltry a subterfuge, lo avuid even the worst consequences lb il could result from confessing ihe Irulh! Can. dor requires us to admit, however, that we believe Mr. Van lluren could have answered the first two questions much to the satisfaction of his interrogators, because now compelled lo be orthodox on the sullied of slavery, or lose Ihe benefits of his recent oos-lilionwiih the Nullifirrs of Ihe South! and from Ihe pinching necessity for Woslerii voles lo sreuro his election, he would not only promise to improve a preemption bill, or sny other popular Western measure, but ws verily believe ho would, if kt could, go even farther, and pledge himself that every man who sun- ported his election should have a quarter section of the people s lanu into ine bargain I lie knew, however, if he commenced answering it all, ha would have had to go through with Ihs whole catechism, and that the searching character of sunt of the questions, would have developed, beyond the possibility of oavil or doubt, thtfidiuut and ami-republican doctrines avowed and advocated hy In in as I member of Ihe New-Yolk Convention I This is the true tecnil of hit sanctioning ihe paltry electioneering device that there it in circulation, in the West, a "spurious" biography of his life, by Professor Holland. We will give $10 lo any man who will show us a copy of a "spurious" life of Van Buren by that gentleman, bearing any resemblance lo Ihe original, either in Bize or external appearance. The truth is, THERE IS NO SUCH SPURIOUS LIFE IN EXISTENCE ; and the pre-tence that there is, is an electionoering dovice to destroy public confidence in the abundant proofs of Van Buren's aristocracy tliatvnay be found, even in a work written by a personal and political friend, to promote his election to the Presidency. The main object of the spoilers is to destroy publio confidence in the en-lire history of the country, because its pages, if well read, beliuved and understood, would destroy forever Ihe hopes of a parly that can only sustain themselves by Ihe aid of popular infatuation, delusion and humbug."MR. VAN BUREN'S AFFIDAVIT MAKERS. Wo noticed a fuw days ago, the ridiculous charge of Black-oockado Federalism brought against Gen, Harrison, by the supporters of Mr, Van Buren. Affidavit and certificates ore resorted to, made by abandoned and dissolute men, to sustain the foolish charge. We disposed of ona of these "men in buckram," (old Capt. Fowler, of Kentucky,) in the thort nolice whicli we deemed it proper then to lake of the subject. The Wutcm Resent Chronicle, of Ihe 21st inst., a paper published in Ihe immediate neighbourhood of the oilier affidavit maker, Robert Price, of Trumbull county, (dignified with Ihe title of Judge,) enables us to dispose uf him in a way which will be a caution to "Ihe footstep followers" to be careful how they let their zeal run ahead of their knowledge. Il is a little strange how the friends and supporters of Mr. Van Buren should presume lo venture upon such ground, when it is notorious that their candidate was arrayed against Ihe Republican party in 1812, and openly, in the Sennte of New-York, supported Ihe "peace party" candidate for the Presidency, against the patriot Madison. It can only be accounted for hy supposing it to be included in the general order lo "charge along the whole Whig line," regardlear of facts, by the use of false certificates, perjury, and forgery. It will be recollected that Price's affidavit was made and published in Buffalo. The Chronicle, from which we copy the affidavit of Messis. Sutherland and Carter, which will be found below, contains three or four others, all corroborative of the facts staled in theirs. Besides, it appears from tiie records of the Courts, which are also given, that said Price's testimony has heretofore been rejected on Ihe ground of his unbelief in Ihe existence of a God, and consequently the absence of all qualification to swoar by his Maker. Such a man's word may be taken, whero his character for honesty and integrity is unquestioned ; hut his oatk, especially one like this, extra judicial, and not punishable, is good for nothing. In this instsnce, his integrity seems to be more than questioned ; and, inasmuch as he has notoriously falsified the political history of his coumry, he must be content to stand branded with infamy. Such men, and luch means, are fit instruments in the hands of the present Van Buren letdert. Tho affidavit of Messrs. C. and S. follows: The State or Ohio,) Trumbull county, it. j Newton Falls, July 16, 1810. We. Alexander SuiWlnnd and 8. M. Carter, of said Newton Fall". lawful age, being duly sworn, depose sod say. that in a conversation had wuh Tunis Price, a luritier of Judge Robert Price, of Milton, in I hi county, on the 9th instant, in the pretence of Isaao K. Wright, Robert Weisner, Peter Kline, and others, in relation lo an affidavit, published in the Buffalo Daily Republican of June 23, 1840, professing to have been made by b said Robert Price, the said Tunis affirmed ihul "he did not believe old Bobby ever made thai affidavit in the world j, that he did not believe he ever saw Gen. Harrison in the world ; and, by Cod, 1 know he never did." In further conversv lion, surd Tunis affirmed thai hit brother Robert never was in Philadelphia previous to '98; thai he never was in Philadelphia at all then recalling himself, he said that his brother Robert might have been there while driving cattle, after he came to Ohio; and then again affirmed Ihat he never was in Philadelphia at all, averring lliat " Bobby" would have told him of ll had he been there. Said Tunis declared his opinion, that the affidavit was "all a dam'd Whig lie," and appeared much exeiied lest it might injure his brother. He repeated ihe above remarks in tuhstanee several timet, In different language, and convinced the under. siijne,l thai he was anxious to txoi.erate his brn. Iher Robert from Ihe charge of having mado Ihe affidavit abovo mentioned. ALEXANDER SUTHERLAND, SAMUEL M. CARTER. Sworn to and subscribed before me, Ihe dale above, J. D.

We invite attention lo tht following exlracti from the last Toronto Patriot, the government newspaper organ of Upper Canada. In reading, every one will ba it r in k with the perfect similarity of in lone with that of tho presses in Ihe Interest of Van Buren this side of the line. The Tory organ in Cattails attempt! lo depreciate the services of Gen. Harrison, and so do the presses tnd partisans of loeofoeoisin in the United Slates. Tht Canadian Tory organ speaks disparagingly of the icliicvcinents of our armies iu the last war, and its Locofoco allies in ihs United States chime in with the same tunn. From the Toronto Patriot ot June 23. Among the curiosities of lbs Democratic Government, not iho least amusing, Is the overwhelming excitement which the ensuing Presidential election has caused among all classes, in that glorious mixture of vanity and of wickedness, the I'niled Slutes. Gen. Harrison has, in a lew short weeks, been roused from Ihe slumbering insignificance in which, for some years, he has heen permitted In repose, and the farmer of North Bend is suddenly elevnltd into a IIEKO, before tha lustre of whose victorious career, Ihe achievements of Wellington pule iu comparison Wuterloo is a mere scuillo when compared with Ft, Meigs Salamanca yields In Tippecanoe and Ihe plains of Vittnria fade in remembrance before the flats of the Thamet, So, at least, would our modest neigh-bora represent things. Thousands of mobs have mustered lo celebrate these great doings! Language lias beun exhausted lo cull choir epithets of piaise for their overgrown plaything! Convenient eagles have Dialed in nnd-aii over the Liberty Pole raised to honor the Warrior. And even history hat heen falsified to make out a rase in favor of Ibis Goliah uf Ihe Woods,! until ihe whole lund is covered with t plague leas tolerable than those of Egypt. We who louk on, amused at these roarings anil hearings of Ilia Leviathan Democracy, have ihe opportunity of observing the probablo end of this furious beginning. And, we predict that the folkt who now to loudly cry out for "hard cider," but it the same lime pro. dently drink mas who sing their log cabin melodies lo tlm Hint of Harrison's a coming ," will find them-solves much out of pocket, much out of breath, and much out of countenance, when he of Kindrrhook it will turely be Ilia case shall any to him of Ohio, "depart hence and be no mom seen."

ARRIVAL OF THE DRITISII QUEEN. Tho steamship Iliiliah Queen, arrived at New-York on Ihe 18th, brings London dates to July 1st, and Liverpool to Ihe 30th June. The Liverpool Cotton Market was favorable, although no actual advance of prices is noted. The weather having been rather damp since Ihe last arrival, the prospect of an abundant harvest was not so favorable; but there had not been any material rise in prices : American duly paid flour 6d per barrel higher, and in good request. An attempt was made to assassinate ihe Queen and Prince, on Ihe evening of Juno Iflth, whiln riding in an open carriage in ihe Park, Two pistols were fired at the carriage by a young man named Oxford, but without effect, He was immediately secured, tnd was to he tried on the 9th of July. Some of the papera assert dial he it (lie instrument of tho King of Hanover. Lourvoisier, valet of Lord William Russell, was found guilty of hii Lordship's murder, and hat made a full confession, Paganini, the celebrated performer on the violin it reported lo be dead, The greatest distress prevails among Ihe operatives of Dublin, and the streets are every day filled with the famishing. A bill in Parliament lo authorize ihe importation of foreign flour into Ireland, had been rejected, by a vote of 79 to 90. Meetings have been held to devise meant of relief, subscription! raised, and placet uf publio amusement have given benefits. American securities, by the latest London dates, are quoted as follows : Alabama sterling fives, 79; Indiana sterling fives, 81 ; Louisiana sterling fives, DO); Maryland fives, 8 1; Ohio sixes, 91 ; Pennsylvania fives, 76; South Carolina fives, 90. m 07" Commodore Elliott The Court-Muriial which Iried this officer, sentenced him to a suspension from the service for four years, and suspension of his pay for Ihe first two years. The Secretary of the Nuvy approved the sentence, but Piesldunt Van Buren hat remitted so much as suspends tha Commodore's pay. Why is this! Why are the rules of Justice reversed!

Our columns are almost exclusively occupied with a portion of the Minority Report on the New-Jersey caso. We shall give the remainder on Tuesday. No room is left us for remarks. The Report needs nothing from us to call the attention of every true friend of the institutions of his country to its careful perusal. When such high-handed usurpation as is here disclosed can go unrebuked, there will be little left of our representative system. ADJOURNMENT. Congress would adjourn on Tuesday last so says the Intelligencer of that morning. Much business remains undisposed of, So much for doing tho business if the parly, instead of the people. The Intelligencer remarks " It was a melancholy tight, last evening, to see the poor pension and other claimants, for whose relief bill had. already passed one House, hanging round the doors of the Legislative hall, sick to the heart from hope deferred. Two hours would be enough to relieve a hundred such, about whose cases there it no sort of doubt." COLES, AND STATE STOCKS. The Statesman is anxious to correct the impression that "the Slate will lose tome (20,000" by Gov. Shannon'! pet, Coles; but rejoices apparently that he has lelt the "Whigs minus some $70,000." Will the Statesman go little farther, and tell the public why it was that Coles was not a purchaser ol Slate Stocksl He made satisfactory offers to our " Bank Reform"' Covernour, who seemed anxious to accommodate him' and so earnest were the parties, that (Jen. Maocracken was sent for, to come up from Lancaster, to complete the arrangement. Yet, it was not done. Again, we ask, will the Statesman inform the public why it was not done so that Coles might have an opportunity of forcing off upon the labourers on the canal, some 100,000 dollars more of his irredeemable!, in payment of his proposed purchase! The Statesman must see that we are very ignorant on the subject, and therefore ask purely for information! We do not like to deal in rumours, and therefore want the facta. There is another branch of this subject, to which wa would like to call the invaligating mind of the Statesman editor: Who was it that saved the contractors and labourers from loss on Coins' Binghamp-ton Post Notes 1 Was it Mr. Commissioner Bates, Gov. Shannon, or the Treasurer of State f There is some little anxiety manifested on this subject, inasmuch as the Covernour and the Commissioner paved the way for this spurious emission. Tho people are anxious to learn whether it was through the vigilance and exertiont of the laid Commissioner and hit 41 Bank Reform" Gxcollency, or through the instrumentality of the Whig Treasurer. There is a rumour prevailing that it is the latter, and we are desirous of setting the public mind right. Can you tell us J We ask again for information 1 Once more, and we will let you up this time. Who are the Whigs that have suffered this heavy loss of 70,000 dollars, with which you seem so much pleas ed 1 Are they stockholders in the Circlcville, Manhattan, Galltpntis, or Washington Social Library Bank all, or either of them 1 There are various rumours on this subject, and we have heard it said that there is a very un-sociW feeling manifested by some of them, since the htgira of Coles, wholly unbecoming the former relations that existed between the parties. How much of the said 70,000 dollars falls on labourers on the canal, those men who manifested, according to your own showing, such a joy at receiving the genuine " Shannon specio-piying Bank paper" t And if you can tell us, we should delight to hear that all the receipts given by a certain Judge, for Bingharnpton Post Notes, to be paid in good money when exchanged, had been duly taken up, and the labourer put in funds. These may seem like small matters; but depend upon It, tin people attach some importance to them, And do, while ynnr hand is in, tell us whether you have yot got at the bottom of Gov, Shannon's loan of Coles. WHAT NF.XTt In tho Federal Van Buren call for a meeting on the 8th of August, the Statesman addresses itself to the "Friends f the illustrious Jaekson!" What doet this mean t It Van Buren to be dropped, and Jaekson to ba taken up 1 The Whale is in a flurry. Judging from the following appeal contained in the same notice : 11 Never desert the Democratic ship, ao on; at a plank remains, or a tingle rag fitatt from Ike mast-keadl!" Oh ho! some planks knocked off sprung a loak 1 Rats wiil leave a sinking ship. "CAN'T DO THAT WORK." The Sandusky Clarion of the 18th intt. contain! the renunciation of Roomy Latiiuop. We know something of this man. He is a mechanic, a carpenter, and formerly resided in the old 4lh Ward, in Ilia city of Albany, where he did good service in support of the Regency, and aided In giving force to the battle rry of the household troops ".fi goa Ike ilk Ward, to goa Ike Stale." But he hat eomo out from among them, and we are told that he goei not alone. He now lays "I am fur I change; let us try other rulers, fur we have been misruled quite too long." W hen inch men change, the tign it right, 27 Aarok Palmer, Esq., hat assumed the Editorial charge of the Toledo Blade, until after the Presidential Election. This it an accession in which ws rejoice. Mr. Palmer's Blaile will cut keen and deep. He was once, for a short limo, Editor of tht Hemisphere, in this city, Ilia Administration organ tt that time. Our readers will remember Mr. P.'s recent address, on leaving the ranks of the Spoilers. 87 The cause of the People is progressing; to title Is the Locofocoism, that " Whiggery riia at the country si'mai," and to natural it it for men to consider their own and their country' good.

THE EXPENDITURES OF OUR STATE GOVERNMENT.There is much inquiry on foot among the people, about tho expenditures of our State Government, as well as our National Government. The taxes of the people are increasing, and their means of payment are decreasing. There is something manifestly wrong in this condition of things, and the subject deserves attention. The great increase of expenditures under the administration of Mr. Van Buren, is pretty well understood leaving to the country a bankrupt Treasury, with a prospect of being obliged to resort to direct taxation. The waste and extravagar.ee of our State Government are not so well understood. We have given some specimens; we propose now to give some more, promising to follow it up as leisure shall permit. The following abstract shows the amount paid the State Printer, for printing the Laws, Journals, &c, from the session of 1821-25, to Ihe session of 1639-40. The amount for the different years U taken from official documents and carefully compared by a competent person. We ask the attention of Ihe people to their great increase, especially for the last three or four yean: Amount paid ihe State Punter: For the session of 1824-25, - g 1, 703 99 Do. 1825-20, - - 3,023 79 Do. 1820-27, 3,280 10 Do. 1827-28, - - 3,301 90 Do. 1828-29, - - 3,537 69 Do. 1829-30, - - 4,300 00 Do. 1830-31, 8,586 16 Total for seven years, $27,792 03 The following three years comprise the time in which Ihe Slate Printing was done by Dutid Smith: For Ihe session of 1831-32, - - 5,208 08 Do. 1832-33, - 5,738 96 Do. 1833-34, 8,282 41 Total drawn by Smith for three years, $19,230 05 Tho following three years comprise the time in which the State Printing was done by Jama B. Gar- dinen For the session of 1834-35, - - $12,413 84 Do. 1835-36, 12,139 90 Do. 1836-37, - 17,692 44 Total drawn by Gardiner for three years, $12,270 18 The following three years comprise the time in w hich the Stato Printing has been done by Samuel Medary i For the session of 1837-38, - - $17,692 44 Do. 1838-39, - 20,987 94 Do. 1839-40, 20,740 00 Tola! paid Medary, $59,320 38 Bal, of appropriation for '39-'40, no drawn, 5,579 C2 Total to be drawn, for three years, $64,900 00 The price paid Medary, for the publio priming, is fixed by law, at one lixtk ir.ss than that paid hit predecessor. Yet lis swells hit account against the Slate to an amount exceeding Ihe turn paid Gardiner, $17,044 20 Bal. of appropriation for 1 839-' 10, 5,579 62 Add one tilth, being the reduction in price, 10,816 67 And we have the total of 33,430 49 paid, and to be paid, (or the whole appropriation is sura to be consumed,) to Samuel ttedary for the public printing, more than was paid Jama B. Gardiner, for the three years in which he did the public printing: Or, the grand total for the three yeais of Samuel Medary, charging at former prices, of $75,716 67!!! Showing an increase of nearly double in this branch of the publio expenditure! Is it any wonder that a man fattening thut at the public crib, ahould bo the advocate of theSub-Treasury should be in favor of a system, by which the price of produce and labour is reduced more than one half when, by the same system, every dollar drawn fiom the Slate Treasury becomes worth two in his hands from the same cause) Bowsn of such patent Democrats! They are wolvca in sheep's clothing, devouring Ihe substance of the flock ! Is it any wonder that our Taxes increase under such a waste ful and extravagant use of Ihe People's monryl BEAUTY OF CONSISTENCY. In the Senate of the U. S. on the 15th inst., Mr. Tap-pan brought forward a project of free banking as a proper remedy for all Ihe evils of Ihe present system. Ho mado a long argument on this subject, and promised to press it at some future time. His plan is simply lo abolish all exclusive banking privileges, and leave the trade in money as free as sny other trade; lo have no regulations of the currency, but to suffer it to regulate itself, like the culture of cotton or the manufacture of yarns. In short, the only law in relation to the subject of money, that he would retain, it the constitutional provision making specie Ihe only legal tender, and a law fixing tho standard dollar. Mr. Benton, of course opposed it, and denounced Ihe project. When will these men cease humbugging Ihe people ! They start project! to afford each other the gratification of knocking them over, and thus holding the public mind in suspense, without accomplishing anything for their relief, They would do well to cease tinkering. t'ipen gnawing at a file. The Looofonoei, vexed beyond measure at the evidence! of patriotio enthusiasm that meet them daily, are striking with Ihe envenomed fang of slander and defamation, at every thing thai it bright, and beautiful, and honorable. In their desperation they are reviling, in unmeasured terms, the Ladies who participated in the festivities of the Fourth of July. They remind ut of a natural phenomenon, familiar lo Ihe Log Cabin boyt of the Weal, which is, that on the approach of dug-days In July, until after they have passed in the full, the copper-headed make is so Irritable and malignant that it strikes at every thing it sees, but is so blind that It cannot sea any thing at which lo strike but what is exceedingly bright) The People are eomin gl The following Is from tho Rochester Democrat of the 17th.

The friends of Mr. Van Buren have made a great noise about the "Caged Hero" the " Lion in the Cage," and such like nonsensical matters, because Gen, Harrison, following in the " footsteps" of the Hero of New-Orleans, did not choose to repeat over and over again, on demand of every nine-pin alky keeper, his opinions on measures of Government poll cy but choso, rather, respectfully to refer the querists lo his already voluminous published opinions. They did not think, while they were trying to humbug the people on this subject abandoning the defence of the Administration, and running after this conceit, like a puppy after his tail, that their pomatumed and bewhiskered Fox, the Little Magician, would so soon be caught in his own trap. But so it is. He is fairly cornered at 3l caged. Like his prototype, he has doubled upon his track, and professed all sorts of opinions about men and measures, with a view of deceiving the people: At one time being opposed to the war, and then in favor of it a high tariff man, and then non-committal arrayed against executive encroachments, and then grasping at more than Kingly power an Abolitionist, and Ihcn a " Northern man with Southern principles" a friend of a United States Bank, then opposed to it; and anon going all lengths for a Treasury National Bank, issuing Treasury notes for circulation, although in favor of a specie currency, and opposed to all paper issues in short, after being on all sides of every prominent question that has been agitated for the last thirty years, he is now driven to a corner, and hat no opinion! at all ! ! The Wabash (Indiana) Courier gives the following account of the new position of Mr. Van Buren. The editor says "A fiiend has placed in our possession a MS, copy of a most extraordinary correspondence which has taken place between certain citizens of Danville, Illinois, and Ihe President of Ihe United States, which cannot fail to excite much attention. Among its signers we recognize some of Ihe most worthy and respectable inhabitants of Danville, of both political parties; and one of llieni, Dr. Alexander, is Register of the Land Office, and a brother to the gentleman who lately wrote a similar letter of enquiry lo Gen. Harrison. This correspondence originated in this way. The Van Burenitos boasted of the superior frankness of their favorite; and some of them went so far as to pledge themselves to an abandonment of their party, if, on application, the President refused direct, candid and explicit answers to any interrogatories about his political opinions, which might be propounded by a respectable portion of his fellow-citizens. The reader may therefore imagine the shock which their confidence in his candor received on the receipt of his most disingenuous, evasive, and quibbling reply. The only interrogatory entirely unimportant is the last one, and yet, because that alone edmils of a quibble, it will be seen that il is (he only one to which Mr. Van Buren makes the slightest reference !" The questions propounded wore seven in number, and hero follow: Danville, III. May 23, 1840. Mr, Van Buren, President U. States: You are now before the people of the United Slates for re-election. We claim il, as Ihe privilege of Citizens, to propose for your consideration and answer, the following interrogatories: 1st. If re-elected, should a bill pass Congress abolishing slavery in Ihe District of Columbia, would you approve Ihe lawt 2d. Do you approve of pre-emption lawsl 3d. Did you, or not, as a member of ihe Conv-tion of Amendments for amending the Cone'.'ulion of Ihe State of New-York, vole against a proposition to restrict the right of voting to white citizens! 4th. Did you, or not, vote in the same Convention to allow Negroes who were worth two hundred and fifty dolli, the right of voting! 6th. Did you, or not, advocate, in the lamo Convention, a properly qualification as necessary for all electors? 6th. Did you, or not, in the lamo Convention, propose and advocate the appointment of Justices of the Peace by Ihe Governors! 7th. Have you examined Holland's Life of Van Buren, of dale 1835; and, if so, is it a faithful and true history of your political opinions) Respectfully, your obedient servants, Wm. Knioht, W. Fitiiian, J. C. Alixanmcr, Geo. Mav, Milton Leslev, Michael Cline, Adam Sullivan, Wm. McKihbkn, D. II. Heed, Samuel Pahtlow, Wm. I. Moore. Did Mr. Van Buren answer these questions "frankly," as his deluded followers bad been induced lo suppose he would! Not he. And why! Because the elections in Ihe Western Stales, including In diana, Illinois, and Missouri, were coming on early in August, and he might embarrass kit friendt should he "define his position," and thus lose a fw rules! This is Ihe secret. Bui here follows hit frank, judicious, and manly answer, worthy of the man, and furnishing in epitome of his character: Washington, June S3, 1810. Gentlemen, I havo received a letter signed by yourselves and others, propounding to mo several questions, to which il is my intention lo reply in full seuson for the ohjeol you have in view. One of Ihein is in Ihe following words: "Have yon examined Holland's Life of Van Buren, (of date 1835.) and, if so, is it a faithful and true history of Vonr political opinion!" It has been suggested lo me, thai spurious copies of this work have heen put in circulation in Illinois, Il is therefore desirable tint you should send ine tho copy lo which your question relates, before I answer it. This I will thank you to do at your earliest convenience. When inspected, il shall be returned to you. I am, gentlemen, very rcspoclfully. your obedient servant, M. Van Dukkn. To Win. Fithian and John C. Alexander. On tltit pettifogging answer with a knowledge of the man's character which does him credit the editor of the Courier remarks: "We would now ask every candid and intelligent Van Buren man, (who loves republicanism and honesty more than he dors the head of his party,) would il not have been more honorable for Ihe 1'rcniilenl to havo refused any reply at til, than lo iiavo resorted lo so paltry a subterfuge, lo avuid even the worst consequences lb il could result from confessing ihe Irulh! Can. dor requires us to admit, however, that we believe Mr. Van lluren could have answered the first two questions much to the satisfaction of his interrogators, because now compelled lo be orthodox on the sullied of slavery, or lose Ihe benefits of his recent oos-lilionwiih the Nullifirrs of Ihe South! and from Ihe pinching necessity for Woslerii voles lo sreuro his election, he would not only promise to improve a preemption bill, or sny other popular Western measure, but ws verily believe ho would, if kt could, go even farther, and pledge himself that every man who sun- ported his election should have a quarter section of the people s lanu into ine bargain I lie knew, however, if he commenced answering it all, ha would have had to go through with Ihs whole catechism, and that the searching character of sunt of the questions, would have developed, beyond the possibility of oavil or doubt, thtfidiuut and ami-republican doctrines avowed and advocated hy In in as I member of Ihe New-Yolk Convention I This is the true tecnil of hit sanctioning ihe paltry electioneering device that there it in circulation, in the West, a "spurious" biography of his life, by Professor Holland. We will give $10 lo any man who will show us a copy of a "spurious" life of Van Buren by that gentleman, bearing any resemblance lo Ihe original, either in Bize or external appearance. The truth is, THERE IS NO SUCH SPURIOUS LIFE IN EXISTENCE ; and the pre-tence that there is, is an electionoering dovice to destroy public confidence in the abundant proofs of Van Buren's aristocracy tliatvnay be found, even in a work written by a personal and political friend, to promote his election to the Presidency. The main object of the spoilers is to destroy publio confidence in the en-lire history of the country, because its pages, if well read, beliuved and understood, would destroy forever Ihe hopes of a parly that can only sustain themselves by Ihe aid of popular infatuation, delusion and humbug."MR. VAN BUREN'S AFFIDAVIT MAKERS. Wo noticed a fuw days ago, the ridiculous charge of Black-oockado Federalism brought against Gen, Harrison, by the supporters of Mr, Van Buren. Affidavit and certificates ore resorted to, made by abandoned and dissolute men, to sustain the foolish charge. We disposed of ona of these "men in buckram," (old Capt. Fowler, of Kentucky,) in the thort nolice whicli we deemed it proper then to lake of the subject. The Wutcm Resent Chronicle, of Ihe 21st inst., a paper published in Ihe immediate neighbourhood of the oilier affidavit maker, Robert Price, of Trumbull county, (dignified with Ihe title of Judge,) enables us to dispose uf him in a way which will be a caution to "Ihe footstep followers" to be careful how they let their zeal run ahead of their knowledge. Il is a little strange how the friends and supporters of Mr. Van Buren should presume lo venture upon such ground, when it is notorious that their candidate was arrayed against Ihe Republican party in 1812, and openly, in the Sennte of New-York, supported Ihe "peace party" candidate for the Presidency, against the patriot Madison. It can only be accounted for hy supposing it to be included in the general order lo "charge along the whole Whig line," regardlear of facts, by the use of false certificates, perjury, and forgery. It will be recollected that Price's affidavit was made and published in Buffalo. The Chronicle, from which we copy the affidavit of Messis. Sutherland and Carter, which will be found below, contains three or four others, all corroborative of the facts staled in theirs. Besides, it appears from tiie records of the Courts, which are also given, that said Price's testimony has heretofore been rejected on Ihe ground of his unbelief in Ihe existence of a God, and consequently the absence of all qualification to swoar by his Maker. Such a man's word may be taken, whero his character for honesty and integrity is unquestioned ; hut his oatk, especially one like this, extra judicial, and not punishable, is good for nothing. In this instsnce, his integrity seems to be more than questioned ; and, inasmuch as he has notoriously falsified the political history of his coumry, he must be content to stand branded with infamy. Such men, and luch means, are fit instruments in the hands of the present Van Buren letdert. Tho affidavit of Messrs. C. and S. follows: The State or Ohio,) Trumbull county, it. j Newton Falls, July 16, 1810. We. Alexander SuiWlnnd and 8. M. Carter, of said Newton Fall". lawful age, being duly sworn, depose sod say. that in a conversation had wuh Tunis Price, a luritier of Judge Robert Price, of Milton, in I hi county, on the 9th instant, in the pretence of Isaao K. Wright, Robert Weisner, Peter Kline, and others, in relation lo an affidavit, published in the Buffalo Daily Republican of June 23, 1840, professing to have been made by b said Robert Price, the said Tunis affirmed ihul "he did not believe old Bobby ever made thai affidavit in the world j, that he did not believe he ever saw Gen. Harrison in the world ; and, by Cod, 1 know he never did." In further conversv lion, surd Tunis affirmed thai hit brother Robert never was in Philadelphia previous to '98; thai he never was in Philadelphia at all then recalling himself, he said that his brother Robert might have been there while driving cattle, after he came to Ohio; and then again affirmed Ihat he never was in Philadelphia at all, averring lliat " Bobby" would have told him of ll had he been there. Said Tunis declared his opinion, that the affidavit was "all a dam'd Whig lie," and appeared much exeiied lest it might injure his brother. He repeated ihe above remarks in tuhstanee several timet, In different language, and convinced the under. siijne,l thai he was anxious to txoi.erate his brn. Iher Robert from Ihe charge of having mado Ihe affidavit abovo mentioned. ALEXANDER SUTHERLAND, SAMUEL M. CARTER. Sworn to and subscribed before me, Ihe dale above, J. D.

We invite attention lo tht following exlracti from the last Toronto Patriot, the government newspaper organ of Upper Canada. In reading, every one will ba it r in k with the perfect similarity of in lone with that of tho presses in Ihe Interest of Van Buren this side of the line. The Tory organ in Cattails attempt! lo depreciate the services of Gen. Harrison, and so do the presses tnd partisans of loeofoeoisin in the United Slates. Tht Canadian Tory organ speaks disparagingly of the icliicvcinents of our armies iu the last war, and its Locofoco allies in ihs United States chime in with the same tunn. From the Toronto Patriot ot June 23. Among the curiosities of lbs Democratic Government, not iho least amusing, Is the overwhelming excitement which the ensuing Presidential election has caused among all classes, in that glorious mixture of vanity and of wickedness, the I'niled Slutes. Gen. Harrison has, in a lew short weeks, been roused from Ihe slumbering insignificance in which, for some years, he has heen permitted In repose, and the farmer of North Bend is suddenly elevnltd into a IIEKO, before tha lustre of whose victorious career, Ihe achievements of Wellington pule iu comparison Wuterloo is a mere scuillo when compared with Ft, Meigs Salamanca yields In Tippecanoe and Ihe plains of Vittnria fade in remembrance before the flats of the Thamet, So, at least, would our modest neigh-bora represent things. Thousands of mobs have mustered lo celebrate these great doings! Language lias beun exhausted lo cull choir epithets of piaise for their overgrown plaything! Convenient eagles have Dialed in nnd-aii over the Liberty Pole raised to honor the Warrior. And even history hat heen falsified to make out a rase in favor of Ibis Goliah uf Ihe Woods,! until ihe whole lund is covered with t plague leas tolerable than those of Egypt. We who louk on, amused at these roarings anil hearings of Ilia Leviathan Democracy, have ihe opportunity of observing the probablo end of this furious beginning. And, we predict that the folkt who now to loudly cry out for "hard cider," but it the same lime pro. dently drink mas who sing their log cabin melodies lo tlm Hint of Harrison's a coming ," will find them-solves much out of pocket, much out of breath, and much out of countenance, when he of Kindrrhook it will turely be Ilia case shall any to him of Ohio, "depart hence and be no mom seen."

ARRIVAL OF THE DRITISII QUEEN. Tho steamship Iliiliah Queen, arrived at New-York on Ihe 18th, brings London dates to July 1st, and Liverpool to Ihe 30th June. The Liverpool Cotton Market was favorable, although no actual advance of prices is noted. The weather having been rather damp since Ihe last arrival, the prospect of an abundant harvest was not so favorable; but there had not been any material rise in prices : American duly paid flour 6d per barrel higher, and in good request. An attempt was made to assassinate ihe Queen and Prince, on Ihe evening of Juno Iflth, whiln riding in an open carriage in ihe Park, Two pistols were fired at the carriage by a young man named Oxford, but without effect, He was immediately secured, tnd was to he tried on the 9th of July.
