The Daily Cincinnati Republican, And Commercial Register

THE COUNTRY.

We are continually told by the friends of the Bank, that the Country is ruined-that the Country people are daily and hourly becoming satisfied of the necessity of re-chartering the U. S. Bank—and that the supporters of the President are deserting his cause by hundreds --This is all ridiculous humbuggery. In the state of Ohio, the administration never was so popular among the farmers as it is now. Although every attempt has been made to impose upon them by means of bank extras, bank meetings, and bank speeches, they continue as firm as rocks in the political faith they have professed. Inhabitants of cities too frequently regulate their politics by their pockets; but the politics of the farmer are regulated by his love of country. The farmer does not change his opinions when his wheat falls in price. He is a republican because he believes republicanism best calculated to insure political and individual happiness. You cannot bribe him into the notion, that either aristocracy or despotism are compatible with the interests of mankind.— Try to fasten an oligarchy of bankers upon him-show him gold-double the price of his produce-he coolly asks if this oligarchy will not endanger the liberties of his countrymen. Of such stuff are the farmers of Ohio, and of such stuff were the soldiers of the American Revolution. The farmers of those days denied themselves the simplest luxuries of commerce, dressed themselves in humble hunting shirts, and marched to their country's defence bare-footed, rather than submit to an infraction of their political rights. What to them were British broad-cloths, British gold, and British magnificence, when they were to be purchased at the price of their country's liberty and honor. The national character still exists in all its original and high souled purity. The same stern, uncompromising spirit, that in the days of Seventy-six preferred starvation and toil with liberty, to ease and affluence without it, glows as warmly in the bosoms of the American yeomanry now as ever. The Bank cannot extinguish it, nor subdue it, nor purchase its silence.

A few days ago there was a Convention of the people of Hamilton county. The tillers of the soil were there inflexible republicans, all of them. Read their resolutions and then tell us that "the people of the Country are coming over to the Bank by hundreds." You might as well tell us that General Washington was a traitor and a coward.

New Jersey seems not exactly satisfied with her refractory Senators, Southard and Frelinghuysen. Town and county meetings have been held all over the state, at which strongly pointed resolutions have been passed, denouncing the Bank, and approving of the course of the Executive. Messrs. Southard and Frelinghuysen, with our Senator, Ewing, will find that it is no light thing to disobey the people.
