The apparatus is cheap, how- ever; and if it be manifolded, and the power be stored in some simple way, useful re- sults might be obtained. ——_-e+___ REMARK BETRAYED HIM. t Know This Man Was Insane Until He Spoke of Women.

At this period the funds of the government were in the pos- session of banks, all of which refused to pay specie, and the use of their circulating notes was a violation of the resolution of Congress of 1816. Van Buren had been elected. under a pledge against national banks, and he recommended that the treas- ury of the United States should be kept by public officers, and that there should be an entire and total separation of the business and funds of the government from those of the banks.
