A wrilrr, who occupied (lie editorial coltinini of the Siatet-inan for the lime, loundcd his penny whistle in concord with the Message of the lalo acting Governor, in fierce denunciation, directing bis puny atlncks against the Inaugural of Gov. Hartley, as a cover for Ins design. His strength was soon exhausted. The echo of the Meitngu was caught up by various writers, of course with varying motive some having nothing in view but nlitical advouiagu, others looking only lo personal gain and the perpetual ion of eiclusivo privileges in thetmsincsi of banking. A new champion now appears in the Statesman, who wields a more cunning pen. He has In fore made himself heard on the subject of Hunks, bul then it was in denunciation of the Biatesrnun clique, for Ms open lioililily lo all Bank) and the Advocacy of a hard-monty currency. Tn die direction of litis hand, the Statesman now submits itself, and yields quietly its preferences, to what it always has considered a higher duty than the public good, the good of the party. Last Friday's (Statesman contains the last demonstration, We do not propose, by any means, to follow after this writer in a serious consideration of Ilia objections.

We most now secure the credit lo ourselves of supplying thn public requiiiiion j if we cannot do that, wu must prevent the Whig from doing it satisfactorily. This is the present portion of the question, as discussed and determined in the counsels of our opMiiiculS, niibracing all shades of dilU-rcnce, from Ihe extreme dtiltuctiouiit and bank-burner, down lo the modest tuft, who never fnriel his allegiance lo his party in an extreme case like the present.

In Brill another radical relaxation took place by tho repealing of the excel lent pn cniitionnry enaclmeuls pamed during Mr. JetTersuii's and Mr. Madison's administration. Mr. Hives staled as his opinion thai tho evils complained of might, in a great meumirc, if not entirely, be remedied by reviving lhce rescinded provitoc and ntrunlheiiiug (hem with auxiliary provisions. He did not doubt but that all Senator were desirous ol remedying the evil coin lniued of, and d 1 tiered only as lo tbe mode. Mr H. thought that no extension of lime, even to lorl) years, would do any good unless cara is taken lo guurd ngauM fraud ; liy tins lirsl, and il il does not aiiHwer tbe end, and furnish adequate protection, the voice of the country will bear out the Legislature in tho extension of the time.

Looking al Ihe llistorv of legislation on lb s subject, he wits decidedly of opinion il the enactments J passed during Jellerson's nuri AlailiHou's niimiuiHiraiions mm not been tiihjcqueutly relaxed, wo should still have enjoyed nil tho protection against abutc wh cli wns necessarj.

Mr. Merrick snid that thin wnt not the lime to enter into a general disc us ion of the hul-ji-ri; he hoped lo have a full report from the able committee to which it would ho referred. Much injurlice had, he thought, been done lo the foiri&t cit-ixerr, the nbuscs complained of had proceeded from Ihe maladministration ol tlm vativt citizen: the fault is in the nd-minibtralion of the law, nnd not in tho law tUelf.

Tho New York Commercial Advertiser roniains the following interesting description of a scene in the N. Y. City Penitentiary, during and after the delivery of a Temperance Ad-dreits. Mr. (iough, who is xpnkeu of, it said 10 be one of the most eloquent Temperance Lecturers in the country. Tiiu attendance of the Mnyor of New York City, at such a place, under such ci re urn stances, is creditable to his character. Visit to Black w 1:1. i.'s Island. At ihe request of some benevolent ladies, Mr, Jnliti (i. Uoiigh and a few other gentlemen yciiterdny visited die Penitentiary on Blnckwell's Islnml, for the purpose of holding a temperance meeting. Very on alter iheir urnvHl, ihe convicts, male and female, (some eight hundred in iiijiuIht,) were led iulo the large chapel of the Penitentiary, ami informed by the kretior of Ihe object of the meeting. Mayor Harper occupied the pulpil, in company with Mr. (iough, a clergyman mid one or two other gentlemen. Tlie " Boston Uunm-ltc Club," (a company of excellent singers who Imve but recently come among us) performed a number ol appropriate pi ces during ihe meeting. Their style of singing is iiuulnr to that of the " llmchinimu Family, and in point of harmony they are bul little inferior to those justly ce)entted vocalics. At the early stage of the meeting, the prisoners seemed rather indifferent to what wai going on, tint the lirsl wound of Mr. (iough't voice bad srarreiy died nway ere their harden- Vil cnuuteiiHiici'i began to relax, and in a tew moments every eve was meted 011 the upr nicer with an expretMon ol the deepest interest As he proceeded with hit touching appeuls, many n rough citeek w us moisteneii w nn learn, anil the wonts " that's Ihe Iruth" were often nmUird about the room as plainly ns if ihey had bei-n spoken.

In this vicinity as well a iu Ohio, wc often hear complaint of a lack of capital lu invest in manu far luring operations. i'liis deficiency is more imaginary than real. The people of Ohio must have earned during the p:it year omuthiug more than they have consumed sny their consumption hat la-en ,S'"iO,000,000, and iheir nggregulc product Jf 7,000,000.

This sum wisely, invested in active machinery, would crc.i'e capital with great rapidity. Nor would it impair in the least the agricultural products of the State. Indeed, a large addi tional home market would obviously benefit the tiller uf the earth. The latter could still expoil all the brend-tlullt mid prov isions, which the w ants of any part of the Union, or the world, would induce them to purchase al remunerating pricis to the liiisbaudunu.

In other words all of them, ttniledly, could not supply one fourth tho demand; and, if tlmy could, they would not be so iiuwiau ss ti fiirinnh them at a osa, Aa well might it be snid that il the supply ol hour tn this town wax five hundred barrels and it was known that no more could be furnished, and the demand being greater Ihnn tho supply, a few owning together (rn barrels, could reduce tlio price of tho whole by offering them at ft greatly reduced price. As in the caso ol the flour, the supply looking to time not being cquil to Iho demand, the price must by the laws uf trade, rise. So of tho slocks the very pnssagoof the proposed syniem into n low would cause the stoeks to be at a premium.

These considerations then demoiiKtrnte that the fund pledged for the redemption of these notes would always be good nud e tho lent, lo produce more than sntlicictit for all the issues of any failing Hink, ond that speedily, without delnw nnd free from nny coat to the bill holder. )ther nnd important considerations to the iSlute, arising fmni their legal nnd nulliorir.ed continuous demand for its etneks, nud the resulting benefits to the people nt large, will hereafter hr submitted. Hut before 1 end tl in one, I will mention nnd shortly dispose of itnolhcr objection, if il may be socall- ed, that has alretidy been mooted nguinst this pnrt of the By hi em. It is snid tlml this system 11 eimciea into a law, will mio the pnro 01 mock, ami inns benefit the holders, stock jobbers, brokers nnd nil If it does benefit tho holders by incrunsing theirconfi-denco in them, founded upon the wisdom of the Inw, then surely them is no danger but that tho stocks ns n basis for tho issues are snfej unquestionably safe. Well, should tho Htato hesitnto to enact good and wise laws because people, her creditors inclusive, will bo beneliited by them? When thoovidencesof her domestic debt (her canal checks, &c.) were depressed to 5ti and tiO ct. on tho dollar, ought alio to have been restrained from providing menus to pny her honest debts, becnuso by doing so it would re-storo confidence and onnble her creditors to receive par for their claims? And should the Stnto refuse to benefit herself and her whole pooplo becnuso without loss but by t gnin to herself, others without her borders if you plense, might bo benefited? It must ha remembered that tunny millions of the Ohioti's were pttrehnsed when her credit wns undoubted, nt a large premium. Tho credit of Stnto is a unit, it cannot bo undoubted at home and doubted abroad; it cannot bo good and bnd in Iho anmo brontli. And it would be follv etptnl tocrimo forthisslnteto decline improving her own condition nud credit, and giving evidence to tho world that tdio intended to mnititniu it because her creditors at homo and abroad, would respect her fur it snd bo benefitted by it.

Mr. Archbold wished tn inquire of the gentleman from Montgomery, why he did not include in hit motion the nuui ber proposed to be printed for Ihe uso of Ihe institution)1 Mr. Gunckcl replied that it wns necessary for the Suicrin-Icndttnl of the iniiitutioti to be supplied wnh a sufhcicnl num. bur lo exchange with other iiituiutioiifl of the kind, lioth in ihis country and in Li 1 rope. 'J'he Superintendent had a right lo demnud extra eopiet fur this purpose, in order to procure tho reports of oilier institutions, and avail himself of the benefits of the information they nughi contain. Mr. Summers was opposed to the amendment. He had recently vitiied the imttiulion for the first time, and lie felt proud of Ins Stale for having cstHbhdied it, and was iu (avor of making the people acquainted, as Jar a potiiblo, with the manner in wliirh il wa conducted Mr. Miller scouted the idea that it wns ihe intention of any one to make political capital out of this report; such a molivo was unworihy of any member of Ihe (ieueral Assembly. Mr. Fordaid he should oppose llie amendment, at the rttk of lieing suspected of a wish lo acquire a little additional jmp-ularity. He spoke of ihe doubts which were entertained of Ihe success of the institution at Ihe lime of its foundation, anil of the change which had tubscquently laken place in Ihe opinion of the nil.lic in regard to it. This change had been pro-dueed by iheir being made acquainted front timelo time with Ihe progress of ihe institution, and ihe success which attended il. Il was not necessary that every person should lie furnished with a copy, in order lo make the mass of the ieople acquainted w ith it contents. He should therefore vole for iho resolution, although he thould nppose ihe printing of reports of committees and other document of lest importance, the distribution of w hich was not so eosenlial, Mr. Morris was in favor ot ihe resolution for the reason slated by him 011 a former occasion, thai " a little leaven leavenelh the whole lump." lie had been clawed with ihe Democracy by tome of tlie newspaper, for his remarks upon the question of piiuling die Auditors report, bul ho was by no menu alurmed about il.

He had striken of the irciicrnl practice of printmc ex tra copies of public documents, and of the tendency of the tract ice to create n specie of favoritism, by nflbrding mem-icrt an om nrtunily of placing these documents in ihu hands of particular individuals, whose favor might by that means be conciliated. The practice wa one of recent nrigtn. and die eulogies upon tho puhlic institutions uf ihe Stale which had neeii spoken, ul not go lo jutlily us continuance, or prove it lo he a correct one.
