 as in this, that $lS,o00 of cash and s2.0o0 oi perqulsites can be secured, running througb a period of eight years, at one slall6ul stroke of the pen. This contract, whatever nav he thought of 1t by the attorney, is a fraud up- on the assignment, and could never he en- iorced' II justice IS the offhpring of law.

 Is tine salary of Mir. Newton q matter of contract also? Is the candidate for the Staie Senate also provided for? have never heard u so stated' but 1t looks so like joint stock concern, that should not be surprised.

 In this, Mr. Pike betrayed sacred trust; i; Ill this ne perfected what, but for its magni- Jude, might well be styled his Yankee trick ne, the author of the Real Estate Bank hlstory-who eXpatiates so largely upon Mr. Sevier's unprincipled violation of the trusts reposed in. him, and in all the vanity oi historic style, and with virtuous indigna- ton, endorses the efalsehoods published against that gentleman-he, the historian who en- lightens us upon all the past history of a matter, but when he reaches his own ace and tune, modestly drops the pen, and leaves to others the unfinished task. |, for him, can not say that he has made sound the assign ment, that he will prevent the private ruin of the stockholders, that he will save the people rom State debt of millions; but as faith ful chronlcler, 1 can record his eminent ex- ertlons as partlzan, his skill as an attorney, and glld the splendor of his unrivalled con tract, by which he derives, in these days of wretched penury among the people, from the very fund which should save the stockholders and the State, S18,000 of silver, and the per qulsItes; and can chronicle the fact that he 1 IS still unsatisfed, but assals all around him who enjoy the life, and the station of honor which his ambition coyets.

 Mr. Pike was the competitor of Mr. Sevier for the United States Senate he could not beat him; but he can help to wreak ven- geance upon his priUate reputation, by mis- construlng his motives and misrepresenting llIs acts, Ill the very matter in which, if a man ever deserved commendation for his energetic action and signal success in behalf of the peo- 1 pie of his own State, Mir. Sever deserved 1t. Deeply selfish, he can aid the hostile New ton, to help Gibson, sworn enemy, com blnlng with Gaines and McLain, to assaiI with misrepresentation and prostrate with falsehood the private character of man alike distinguished for his truth, his honor, his liberality to his friends, and his generosity to his foes But little would this people mend the matter, should they turn out .Sevier as an interruptions betayer of his trust, and put Mr. Pike in his place.

 If Mr. Pike, in post of confdence, and Ill an hour of trouble, can saddle himself l upon the Bank for the term of it's existence, without qualms of conscience, and then dUoU lt, and aU0ac too that he will sue the assignees and recover his salary for the whole eight years, if they should remove him, what will he not do? And, if he chooses, what can he not do with the power and the means incl dent to a debt of millions at his control ?- He may not call this corruption, yet its seems corrupt-ay, corrupt, though done by the upright, indignant commentator, the architect of Hotch-Potch parties, who with his Lieu tenant, the Secretary, never makes war, yet is never at peace, and covers his political l hunting ground with thousand blinds. and impenetrable deceits

 | Mr. Pike, as I have heard, and before men, l toned, is using the funds of the institution for political purposes. Will he deney it :? Is it, or, is it not the truth, q see no reason

 

 mentS to different parts of the State, and caused the postage to be charged to the Real Estate Bank To what extent this has been practsed, it is impossible to tell. Is it per quisite that the Bank shall pay all postage : If so, have to urge that the perquisite Is improper; if not so, 1t is the conversion of the Real Estate Bank into political engine, and its funds to an improper use.

 Mir. Newton and Mr. Pike were the chief agents in the purchase of the Gazette; the fathers of that great measure. Iheir Baat- ling should Dc cared for. Immense quantities of printing have been done there, by the Real Estate Bank. Was 1t all indispensable doubt very much if the public printing does not cost Jess annually, than has the Real Es- tate Bank printing since the purchase of the Gazette I call upon the fraternity to pub fish the bills of printing, and their prices, since the Gazette passed from the hands of Mir. Woodruff. This will constitute mag niicent item of Real Estate Bank history. Column after column of the Gazette, has been filled with advertisements, chargeable to the Banks in every number of that paper since January l843, with Scarce an exception. call for the publication; knOw t aciD not De gioen, and call upon the assignees to exmanine into it. The assignment went into operation in April, lS4l. They will find that the printing, since the Gazette was bought by these controllers and managers of the funds of the Bank, will more than double the bills of any preceding year. l call for the publication and comparison of the bills for each year. If the Gazette has not made out of the Bank, for printing, the sir hou- sand dollars which 1t cost, l am deceived.

 Certain gentlemen subscribed $l00 each, to purchase the Gazette. Who are those gen. tlemens Are not Mir. Newton and MT. Pike two of them' And was this one hundred dollars invested, or was 1t a free gift? or do they hold MT. Borden's obligation for it } This was handsome game, played at the expense of the Democratic party The pub lie wish, and have a right, to know, whether the payments for the Gazette were free gift to Mir. Borden; and to know who are the se-
