THti EVENING POST. TUESDAY EVENING. MAY 22. Air. Clay's proposition to make bank notes legal leader to the government is not like ly to meet muctj favor with the people.

Never at any time since the days oi the Continental naner money, has the use of Lank notes as a substitute for coin, been in so great discredit as now a universal dis credit among all parties among democrats ami whlr neonle of towns, and people of A 1 the country, at the south and at the north, the east and the west. Yet this is the very moment chosen by Mr. Clay, the champion of the whig party, and their future candidate lor the Presidency, to propose ttiat Congress shall do for the paper currency what was never done lor it bclore in its sounuesi state, and in the time of its greatest credit, namely, to make it imperative upon the of hcersofthe national treasury to receive it in all payments for duties and lands, and pay it over to all public creditors who are willing to receive it. Air. Clay is a cunning politician, but he now and then overshoots his mark.

This proposition to heap paper money with hon ors in proportion to the mischief it has done, does not take. Even the whig prints de fend the proposition feebly. It is, in fact, as is well shown in Mr. Wright's report on tiie subject, a proposition to make bank notes a legal tender not only to the govern ment, but from the government to all with whom it has dealings. It is in effect a pro posal io banish finally the precious metals from all public transactions.

Mr. Wright says Take the disbursements in our Indian department, and suppose the revenue to be disbursed is paid in bank paper, as it will be very certain to be when all the bank paper of the country shall be made a teuder in payment of debts at the Treasury. The annuities are to be paid to the Indians residing the Indian Territory west ot the Musiiaippi The means of payment consist of that variety of bank piper which would, under such a system oi" finance, compose the ordinary receipts at the Treasury. The agent, to the payment, must lake the paper, go to the Indian country, offer his bank paper to the proper individuals of each tribe, or band, meet their refusal to receive it, as he certainly Mould if the Indians were left free to act, and then do what Either return to the settlements and sell the notes for the best price they will command in coin, or seek out among the Stntes the various banks whose he holds, present them at their counters lor payment in coin, and make a second journey to the Indian Territory. The case would be the same with our army the greater part of which is stationed in re mote situations.

Mr. Wright proceeds These are but a few of the vast number of cases where similar difficulties would be met with and, under those which have been enumerated, how much freedom of choice is it likely would be left to the public red. tors Take the Indian, and who does not know that the agent, situated as in the supposed case, would give him at once to understand that he mtut take the paper, or wait his (the agent's) pleasure for the specie And who does not also know that this, to the Indian's feelings and wants, would be equivalent to saying be must take the paper or nothing, and would speedily convert him into a public creditor, willing io receive the paper So with the soldier upon a remote station. His small wages and numerous wants render the periodical rounds of the paymaster much less Irequent than would be desirable to him, even if there be no question about his pay when those periods arrivj but let the paymaster offer him bank notes, and tell iiim, if he decline to take them, he must wait until it shall be bia (the paymaster's) duty to visit the post again, and how will he choose; or, rather, what choice will tie havs The compulsion of debt and want must decide the question and be too becomes a public creditor, willing to take the paper. This able report of Mr.

Wright's has cal led forth a flood of vituperation from the whig press. A morning paper says of this roirrVKtr abt. Jua.JM; iust talent enough son. tie has then talent enough to do more than the friends of a paper tender, such as is proposed by Mr. Cliy.

Philadelphia Banks. The existing prosperous condition of our city in pecuniary affairs affords convincing evidence of the justness of our position. The resumption of specie payments bas realized every reasonable expectation ol the friends of that policy. We need not extend our observations beyond the city of New York, in search ot the bene fits arising from an honest policy on the part ot banking institutions. We see commerce reviving mechanics actively employed buildings erecting and in tact every avenue to prosperity filled with renewed enterprise.

Witness the crowded thoroughfares of this city the wharves filled with merchandise from every quarter of the globe ships loading and unloading the restoration of confidence in capitalists the investments in various stocks, (of which our columns for the last fortnight are the re. cord.) AH these circumstances point to a future healthy condition in the affairs of this great emporium of trvle, that must gladden the heart of every citizen engaged in business. Now, what reflection naturally arises from this view of things? Is not the conclusion most irresistably suggested that the enemies of a resumption of cash payments in Pennsylvania have been guilty of tampering with the interests of the community 7 Can the Philadelphia banks justify their continued dishonest policy in declining cash payments, when they aro as able to do ao as the banks of New York 7 Are not their vaults abundantly supplied with the precious metals 7 Or, if not, could they not be amply provided at a moment's warning 7 We know they could obtain, without a loss of any importance, sufficient to enable them to pursue an part. Why then do they hesitate 7 Do they stand ia fear ol any superior power 7 Such a pretext is idle. The late conduct of the banks in withholding their countenance of the resumption, on the ground that the United States Bank ol Pennsylvania stood in their way, was a mere subterfuge it had no foundation to rest upon.

Air. Biddle dares not interfere to prevent them from resuming. He was not bold enough to resort to that expedient in regard io our own banks besides his moral influence is gone forever. He stands before the community a degraded speculator, an enemy to the interests of tho whole community, shorn of those financial honors which were so lavishly bestowed on him by his par tizans. There is not a merchant in the Atlantic states who is now willing to accord to him that high reputation to which be was at one time lifted by party attachment and the disposition of mankind to magnify that of which they are ignorant.

His policy is now openly derided and despised by men of all parties. There are none so poor ato do him reverence. We reaffirm the position we took on Saturday, that the refusal of the Philadelphia banks is a detri ment tojthe interests of the commercial interests of the whole United States. The merchants of the South and West feel it to be so their business is entirely prostrated by it. Their funds are locked up in their local banks no means exist of remittance without a sacrifice that would be ruinous they are obliged to stay at borne in a state oflistless ness, subsisting on funds which belong to their creditors, who in turn are starving, for want of their just means both debtor and creditor equally suffer from this pernicious policy of the Pennsylvania banks.

We repeat it, the nation thou Id no longer tolerate such a policy. Those institutions which have so long resisted public opinion should now be made to feel its weight. The State Legislatures which have sanctioned the policy of non resumption should .5... Dy which th wi not soon forget. They be reformed by their invariably sooner or later, meet with their due re D.v.DEKD.

TheM.nhauaoF.wln.urEace Co. hti mn fin n.n.1 atx payable in a few days. per cent, Withstand the beginnings of evil," is an old saying, full of wisdom. It is said that for want of stopping up a hole made by a water rat in the dykes of Holland, the whole country was once laid under water. The late disturbances in Philadelphia are a striking illustration of the necessity of put tin down the lawless violence of a multi tude in its first demonstrations.

The evil, if not nipped in the bud, when it may be pinched off with the thumb and finger, will grow like Jonah's gouid, and require at last the strong arm and steel to hew it away. The Philadelphia mob employed them selves at first in throwing brickbats at the Pennsylvania Hall. Indulged in this a musement, and given to understand that they were excusable, if not justifiable, the mob proceeded the next day io tire the hall it self, amidst shouts of derision at the Mayor, who came forward to represent the majesty of the laws with no other preparation than a speech. On the third day the regulators of public morals, still further emboldened by the apathy of the city authorities, set fire to the Asylum for destitute colored orphans, which was with difficulty preserved from utter conflagration by the spirited conduct of the firemen and the police magistrate of the district. On Saturday, the fourth day of anarchy, the mob began to extend its jurisdiction to ecclesiastical matters, and attacked the Alrican Church in Sixth street.

This would have shared the fate of 1'enL sylvania Hall, had not the Recorder of the city, with a spirit which does him great credit, interfered to do what the Alayor should have done on the first day, and forming a guard ot well disposed citizens around the building, awed the rioters from their meditated violence. From regulating the affairs of the church the mob proceeded to exteud its cares to the public press. The PhiladeU phia Ledger had displeased it by the lree t'om of some ot its remarks on the right of mobs to insult women and destroy property, and the office of the Philadelphia Ledger was accordingly doomed to destruction. After three days of disorder, a military force was now at hand, and preparations had been made for defending the building which frightened the disturbers from their purpose. All these outrages might have been easi ly prevented at first without the anange inents to which the civil authorities were fi nally obliged to resort to put them down.

Judging from all the accountswe have seen, there never was a more feeble or timid mob assembled than the one which for four days kept Philadelphia in alarm and confusion. The very sound of a watchman's rattle, on the first day, put them in alarm. A good troop of police officers, with their staves, would have kept them as quiet as children at school. There was, in fact, no need of a military array on the first day an ade quate constabulary force of determined men, would have stopped the hole in the dyke so completely that the occurrences of the last week in Philadelphia would have hardly afforded matter for a newspaper paragraph. The event shows the madness of giving the least encouragement to the lawless vio lence of mobs.

Allow it to be excusable in one instance, and you let in a mischiet that will overwhelm every thing no man's life, no man's property is safe no public assem blies can be held without disturbance no man can speak or print his opinions without answering for it with his blood. work bearing the title or Sketches of Rochester, with Incidental Notices of Western New York, by Henry is just published at Rochester by William Ailing. Mr. O'Reilly was lor a considerable time editor of the Rochester Daily Advertiser, which he conducted in a manly, liberal and independent spirit. While thus engaged, he collected the faetsfrom which the present volume is compiled.

It contains a mass of information concerning the climate, soil and productions of the Genessec Valley, of which Rochester may be considered as lite capital, the geology of Rochester and its vicinity, its medical topography, the lands of the Six Nations, the subdivisions ol Western New York, including some particulars of the principal tracts, such as the Holland Purchase, the Military Tract, the improvement of roads and conveyances, the establishment of rait roads and canals, the statistics of Rochester, An appendix contains many interesting particulars respecting the late Indian occupants of Western New York. A brief but interesting account is given of that remarkable race of Aborigines called the Six Nations. The whole ia illustrated by engraved views of buildings and scenery, and by two portraits. Whoever desires to inform himself ef tho present condition, the resources, and future prospects of that interesting and prosperous part of our State which lies about the western lakes, will do well to consult this work. Hebrew Poetrv.

Dr. Barber, well known in this community as a teacher of elocution, delivers this evening, at Chatham street Chapel, a lecture on the poetry of the Bible, illustrated with numerous quotations. The subject is a rich one. The poetry of the Hebrew writers, it is gratuitous to say, is distinguished by the boldness and grandeur of its imagery and Mie noble specimens of it which may be selected from the Scriptures, will afford the speaker an opportunity of giving an example of the impressive enunciation with which they ought to be read.

A case has been decided in the First Judicial District Court of New Orleans, in favor of the claimants of sixty seven slaves, who were taken captive in the Seminole war by General Gaines.

Fire in New Orleans.

A fire broke out in Notre Dame street, near Magazine street, on the 1 1th when the entire row ol two story brick buildings on the corner of Notre Dame and Ma. zine streets, comprising five or six dwellings, was consumed before the fire was subdued. The buildings it is said were the property of Mr. Win. L.

A whig papertheotherday, took occasionto mention the proceedings of the democratic convention in Georgia, and to console itself for the Sub Treasury resolution adopted there with the fallacious hope that the ticket would not succeed. Loco focoism as it called these sentiments, was pronounced to be at a low ebb in Georgia.

Unluckily lor this chance for consolation, it happens that the other ticket claimed of course as a VVhig ticket, is pretty much Loco foco too. Six out of the nine, are certainly Sub Treasury men eiht re said to be. The whole nine, with possibly one exception, are opposed to a National Bank. It must be high tide with the Loco focos in Georgia when the administration men are all that way and nearly all their opponents too, MUTIUS. Philadelphia Riots.

A meeting of firemen, called anonymously, and for what purpose does not appear, took place on Saturday afternoon. After some deliberation, tho intuiting adjourned until eiht o'clock that evening at which time they met, and a great number citizens, not firemen, were also present.

The United States Gazette, savs While the business ol" the meeting was going on, in Independence square, there was a loud in Sixth sheet and immediately a hot ol persons were seen coimn down that street, at a rapid rate, occasion shouting in front of a house. This company, consisting of several thousands, and continually receiving augmentation, went down to the African meeting house, in Sixth aliovc Lumhard street, and a few persons we understand commenced houtiii. ,0 excite the others. At length some few brickbats were thrown and it seemed as if the work ol mischief was begun when suddenly Mr. Recorder Ruh sprang into the front cl the mob, seized one or two actually engaged in the mischief, and called for aid.

At once the pelting ceased." The speaking of this event, says: Mr. Rush dcntvrs the more credit for this, as he was unsupported by any force, and came, to the ground alone. This lacl being ascertained, a num ber ol well disposed citizens clustered around him, and the rioters were overawed abandoning (heir de sign for the time. Another mob, it seems, were bent on destroying the Philadelphia Lodger, a paper which had spoken freely of the. late events.

Respecting this movement, the Pcnnsylvanian says The buildinz. however, was well prepared for the emergency, and had the assault been made, the reception ol the assailants would doubtless have been too warm to be agreeable, even to the greatest lire ea'er anions them.

At midnight, a fight took place in the lower pait ol the town, in the vicinity of the Alrican church before mentioned, between the rioters and negroes dwelling in the neighborhood. A shot was fired from sonn; quar ter as the sheriff ar.d police were coming up.

A number of prisoners were taken, and thus closed the tourth night of riot, tumult and disgracn, We find in the papers a charge of Judge Todd to the Grand Jury, recommending the prostration ol the remaining walls of the Pennsylvania Hall, just destroyed by the mob, owing to the danger the citi zens are in ol being crushed bv their fall.

llamot, conllcliug verv materially with his own. Tur the Chicago American. however felt it due myself, that a brief statement ol the facts should be made attending the circumstances alluded to, that an impartial public may judge I am a criminal or not. I became acquainted in the family of Mr. llamot about htteen months since, which led to an intimacy and afterwards to a contract of marriage his daughter, which was to have taken place early lust December.

It received the lull sanction ot her par ents and it was arranged that she should spend the winter on a tour East and South with me. Accord ingly every arrangement that is usual on such oc casions was made, even so fur as to "ive invitations ing we were to bavo cd. Mr. Hamot then said that he was unwell, and that the travelling was vety bad, and he thought that we had better de ter it for a shoit time. My only objections were that it would make a subtect ol uublic talk.

He replied that as we were to be married it was no consequence what was said and that 1 could be at his house as much as 1 chose, and Mrs. llamot said, yes, and we v. ill treat you as a son. At the close ot the evening some of the cake that third day following, he forbade me the house, sav ing that wc niver should be married, at the saina time forbidding his daughter seeing me, or receiving any communication trom mc. However, a tew days afterward we had an interview.

It was then Ihought advisable for tne to go east and spend Ihe winter, to let llio excitement die away, and she expressed her willingness ana determination to marry me at anv time utter my return, although she did not expect her father would ever again give his consenr. On my return to Erie, I called upon Mr. llamot, and requested him to allow us to be mairicd, which he refused, and gave no other reason than that she was too young to choose for herself, and that she must marry one ol his choice. She was forbidden to sec me, and her express iitslructions were, if she met me in company, to return home immediately, nnd some one was always sent to accompany her. Finding it impossible to get an interview with her in Erie, 1 ie solved to take her on board the Madison, and proceed to some place where we could accomplish our desires.

Upon our arrival at Ashtabula, it was found necessary to send a number of miles to the county town lo procure a license. A man was immediately despatched, but unfortunately, before his return, the Jefferson arriv, with a strong force for the purpose of taking her back. Upon her arrival, I told Miss llamot that they had come after her. She said it would nvike no difference, for she would not go back. We were sitting by a window fronting ihe wharf she with her bonnet and cloak on.

As soon as tin saw us, they rushed for the room, ihe door of which was without fastening of any kind; and many oflhem asked her if she wanted to return her reply was, I cannot, or will not." That appeared to satisfy all except a captain in the United Stales revenue service, who said that her father had told him to take her back, dead or alive, and that he should do so. Accordingly he put his arm around her, and called to the others to assist, which they did, and succeeded in forcing her away, and in doing so they tore both slcevs out of her dress. She was then dragged along the wharf in a hurried manner, notwithstanding her request to be allowed to walk more moderately.

It is a source of high gratification that 1 have been warmly received, since I ieft Eric, by all that knew mo and tint for the last three weeks, I have been publicly, where Mr.

Hamot's advertisement was in every one's hands, and no one has felt disposed to take any notice of it, although he represents me as a criminal of the darkest dye, and appeals directly to public authorities, parents, to aid in bringing me to justice.

I now feci happy ih being a ble to state explicitly, that recent developments have convinced me that he isnotonly the PROPRIETOR of the Medicine which bears his name, but that ALL the charges against him were made to me by FALSE and MALICIOUS persons, enemies to both him and me. And further I feel satisfied that it was not his intention to impugn my motives, or stop my supplies, but that these circumstances were the result of accidental misunderstandings. 1 therefore WITHDRAW, as being founded on FALSE STATEMENTS made to me, WHATEVER may have appeared under my signature calculated to injure the character and standing of the aforesaid Dr. Benjamin Brandreth, of New York.

WILLIAM WRIGHT. EXPLANATION. I formerly stated that my confidence in Mr. Win. Wright was shaken by his desiring to supply the Druggists with the Genuine Medicine, which, together with the insinuations of mutual enemies, induced me to regard Mr.

Wright as opposed to the success of the general business. I am now, however, satisfied that he, Mr. Wright, in making that proposal, was influenced only by a desire to prevent the sale of the counterfeit article Moreover, I feel satisfied.from testamentary evidence, that Mr. Wright acted towards me in all good faith, up to the time of his declaring our connection as dissolved. Since then the matter is before the public, and can be judged of accordingly.

The notorious inefficiency of school instruction in. the science of BOOKKEEPING, sojusdy complained of, is to be attributed to the use of rules in teaching it, their eflect being to dispense with that process of THINKING which real business imperatively, though insensibly, leads the learner into. Rules, it is true, arc used by practical men, but never with safety till they have learned to deduce tliein from principles. As it is a maxim in this institution that no pupil can be taught faster than he can learn, no promise are made to teach BOOKKEEPING in any stated time if a pupil be capable of learning in a fortnight, he may rest assured ofbeing taughtin that time but if his mind be not sufficiently matured, he must undergo patiently the labour of study, and the teacher who pretends to relieve him of this labor by any new fangled notion must inevitably deceive him. Tho pretensions every day put forth imparting that mechanical skill and dexterity which is indit peiisable to FREE WRITING, in a few easy lesl sons, could only be cqalled by professing to enable a pupil to rival Pagasini in the same time on the Viohn Such professions are too absurd to deceive unthinking multitude.

It must not be imagined thai buying and selling merchandise are all the transactions that take place in business.
