-..FROALTHE , PRESIDENT OF THE UNI VE.O -STATES,,, RETURNING, WITH 1115 OBJECTIOYN, THE BILL TO IN. .OORPOISATE THE FISCAL BANK OF tlie UNITED STATES—AugusI le, 1841. The bill entitletf" An act to incorporate the subscribers to the Fiscal Bank of the United States," which originated in the . Senate has been considered by me, with a sincere dnaire to conform my action in re. • gard to it,, to that of the two Houses of Cimgress. _ the Constitution it is made my duty, either to approve the bill by signing it, or to return it withmy objec tions, to the House in which it originated. I cannot contentiously give it my approval, and I emceed to discharge the duty requi red of me by the Constitution—to give my melons for disapproving. The pews, of Congress to create a Na. lineal Bank to operate per se over the Union, has been a question of dispute from the origin of our Government. Men most jnstly and deservedly esteemed for their high intellectual endowments, their virtue, and their patriotism, have, in regerd to it, eintertained diffbrent and conflicting opin ions. Congresses have differed. The ap. proval of one President has been followed by the disapproval ofenother. The people, at different times, have' acpuiesced in decisions both for and against. The court. try has been, and still is, deeply agita ted by this unsettled question. It will suf bee for me to say, that My own opinion has been •unifbrmly proclaimed to be against the exercise of any such power by this Government.- On all suitable occasions, during a period of twenty five years. the opinions thus ertertained have been unre servedly expressed. I declared it in the Legislature of my native State. In the House of Representatives of .. the United States it has been openey vindicated by me. In the Senate Chamber, in the presence and hearing of many who are at Onetime members of that body, it has been affirmed and reaffirmed in- speeches and reports there made. and by votes there recorded. . In popular assentWies I have unhesitatingly announced it; and the last public declara• tied which I made, iind that but a short time benne the late Presidential election, referred to my previously expensed opin iiitillos being thosethen entertained by me. With a full knowledge of the opinions thus entertained, and never concealed, I was elected by thd people Vice President of - the United States. By the occurrence of contingency provided for by the Constitu tion, and arising under an impressive ,dis. pensation of Providetice, I succeeded to the Presidential office. Before entering upon the' duties of that office, I took an oath that I would s'proserve, protect, and defend the ' the Constitution ef the United Strtes."— Entertaining the opinions alluded to, and having taken this oath, the Senate and the country will see that I could not give my sanction to a measure of the character de. set Med; without surrendering all claim to the respect of honorable men—all confi. device of the people—all self relpect—all regard for moral and religious obligations, without an observance of which • no Gov (mimeo can be prosperiins v and no people ten be happy.. It would be to commit a crime which I would not wilfully commit to gaiu any earthly rsward, and which would justly subject me to the ridicule and mom, • of' all virtuous men. • I deem it entirely unnecessary ut this time • to enter upon the reasons which lisle brought my mind to the convictions , I foreland entertain on this subject. They have been over and over again repeated. If some of those who have preceded me in this high office have entertained and avow. ed different. opinions, I yield all confidence that .their convictions were sincere. I claim only to have the same measure meted out to myself. • • Without going further into the argument, ' I will say that, in looking to the powers of this Government to collect, safely keep, ' and disburse the public revenue, end inci dentally to regulate the commerce and ex- ' changes, I have not been able to satisfy myself that the -establishment by this Gov- ' eminent of a bank of discount, in the ordi nary acceptation of that term, was a nec• essary ineans,,or one demanded by propri ety, :o execute those powers. What can tbe local discounts of the bank have to do with the collecting, safe keeping, and dis bursing of the revenue? So .far as the mere dieeountiora paper is concerned, it isinunaterial to this question whether the discount is obtained et a State Bank or a Vrailed States Bank. They are both equal ly local—both begining and both ending in a local acciommndation. What influence have local discounts, ginned by any form of a bult, in regulating the currency and the exchanges? Let the history of the late tTaited States Bank aid tis in answer• tog this inquiry. For several years ifter the establish• meat of that institution, it dealt almost ex cldeively in local discounts. and during That period the country was, for the most part, dimppointed in the consequences anticipa. ted from its incorporation., A uniform currency was not provided, exchanges were not regulated, and little or nothing was added to the general circulation; and in 1820 its embarrassments' bed becorms so great, that the directors oirtifiaid Congress to repeal that article a the charter which mada WIDOWS receivable iii pitoneat of all public dues. It had, op to that period, dealt to but a very small extent to exchanges, either &taiga or dimmatie, 'and tie late as -1* 4 22 operations ie that line amonated to a 1110 e more than seven rankest* of dollars )teir smatint. A very rapid augmeMation sikik4Ker seal gida and io 1828 tie dsaluip . 14 11111911111,41t1 to upward, of one 40940 41 . eitheil of dollars, recluding thti maetrofit ' 4400 andall t hese ' ' soviet • serime, temsomnoili were effected Witho4ll Ole *lllqlll4o l loat of eitraordiost7 ,meaqs. ?be tatratocv of the count ry became towel `and . tho negoeiattrew in the - exchanges earned on is lb kismet probe hie rater. irtick ettsigothmi was iscrotolod to won than 822,000,000, and the .notes of the bank were regarded as equal to specie all over the country; thus showing •almost conclu sively that it was the capacity to deal in exchanges and not local discounts, which furnished these fat-Hulett and adventagee. It may be remarked too that;io•with.tand ing the immense transactions of the bank in the purchase of exchange the losses sustained were merely nominal; while in the !Me of discounts 'the suspended debt was enormous, and proved most disastrous to the bank and the country. Its power of local discount has, in fact, proved to bo .a fruitful source of favoritism and corruption, alike destructive to the public morals and to the general weal. The capital invested in banks of discount in the United States. created by the States, at this time exceeds 83.50,000,000; and if the discounting of local paper could have produced any beneficial efibcts the United States ought to - possess the soundest curren cy in the world; but the reverse is lamenta bly the fact. 10 the measure now under consideration of the objectionable character to which I have alluded? It is clearly so,unless by the 16th fundamental article of the 1 Itb section it is made otherwise. That article is in the following words: "The directors of the said corporation shall establish one competenebffice of die• count and deposit in any. State in which two thousand shares shall have been subscribed, or may be held, whenever, upon application of the legislature of such State, Congress may by law require the same. And the said directors may also establish one or more competent offices of discount and deposit in any territory or district of the United States, and in any State, with the assent of such state; and when establisti• ed, the said office or offices shall only be withdrawn or removed by the said direc tors prior to the expiration of this charter with the previous assent of Congress: Provided, in respect to any . State which shall not, at the first session of the legia future thereof, held after the passage of this act, by resolution, or other meal legislative proceeding, unconditionallY 'as sent or dissent to the establishment of such office or offices within it, such assent of the State shall be thereafter pfesumedt And ' provided nevertheless. That whenever It shall become necessary and proper for carrying into execution any of the powers granted by the constitution, to establish an office or offices in any of the States whatever, and the establishment thereof ahall be directed by law,. it shall be the duty of the said directors to establish such office or offices accordingly. It will be seen that by this clause the directors are invested with the fullest pow. er to establish a branch in any State which has yielded its assent; and having once es tabhiehed such branch, it shall not after. wards be withdrawn, except by order of Congress. Such assent is to be implied,and to have the force and sanction of an actual ly expressed assent, "provided in respect to any State which shall not at ,the first seniors of the legislature thereof, held after the passage of this act, by resolution or oth er usual legislative proceeding, u tcondi tionally assent or dissent to the establish. merit ofsuch office or offices within it, such assent of said State shuttle thereafter pre sumed. The assent or dissent is to be ex pressed unconditionally at the first session of the legislature, by some formal legisla• live act; and if not so expressed, its assent is to be implied—and the directors are thereupon invested with power, at such time thereafter as they may please, to es tablish branches, which cannot afterwards be withdrawn, except by resolve of Con gress. No matter what may be the cause which may operate with the legislature, which either prevents it. from speaking or addresses itself to its wisdom, to induce delay, its assent is to be implied. rns iron rule is to give, .way to no circum stances—it is unbending and inflexible.— It is the language of the master to the ves sal—an unconditional answer is claimed forthwith; and delay, postponement, or in capacity to answer, produces an implied assent which is ever after irrevocable. Many of the State elections have already taken place, without any knowledge, on the part of the People, that such a question was to come up. The Representatives may desire a euhrtussion of the question to their constituents preparatory to final ac tion upon it, but this high privilege is de nied; whatever may .be the motives and views entertained by the representatives of the People to induce delay, their assent is to be presumed, and is ever afterwards binding, unless their dissent shall be un conditionally expressed at their first oes sions after the passage of this bill into a law. They may, .by formal resolution, declare the question of assent or dissent to be'utidecided and postponed; and yet, in opposition to their express declaration to the contrary, their assent is to be implied. Cases innumerable might be cited to mani fest the irrationality of such ,an inference. Let' one or two .io addition suffice. The popular branch of the Legislature may ex press its dissent by an unanimous vote, and its resolutionpay be defeated by a tie vote of theßenate, and yet the assent is to be implied. Both branches of the Leitisla tare may concur .in a resolution of decided dissent, and yet the Governor may exert the,veto power conferred on.. him by the State Constitution, and their. legislative action be defeated;, and yet theJssent of the legislative authority is implied, and the directors of this contemplated institution, era authorized to establish a branch nr branches in such State whenever they may find it conductive to the interest of the stockholders. to do so; and having once established it, they :can under no simian, stances withdraw-it, except by iset - of cote The State may afterwards pretest againpt suehe unjust inficrenee, but its authority is gen.. iti'itipent is • impliekt by its fei lankly inabSity inset at its first session, and its voles ,tesn ottuer aftenwards be beard. To isirstesses so violant,.and, as they seem to me, irrational, I cannot yield my consent. No court of justice would dr could sanction them, without reversing all that is established in judicial proceeding, by introducing presumptions at variance with 'fact, and inferences at the expense of reason. A mate in a condition, of duress would be resumed to speak, as an individ ual, manacled and in prison, might,be pre sumed to be in the enjoyment of freedom. Far better to say to the States boldly and trankly—Congress wills and submission is demanded. It may be said that the directors may not establish branches under such circum• stances. But this is a question of power, and this. bill invests them with full authori ty to do so. If the Legislature of New York, or Pennsylvania, or any other State, should be found to be in such condition as I have supposed, could there - be any securi ty furnished against such a step on the part of the directors? Nay, is it not fairly to be presumed that this proviso was introduced for the sole purpose of meeting the cent'''• gency referred to? Why else should it have been introduced? And I submit to the Senate, whether it can be believed that any State would be likely to sit quietly down under such a state of things? In a great measure of public interest their pat riotism may be successfully appealed to; but to infer their assent from circumstances at war with such inference, I cannot but regard as calculated to excite a feeling at fatal enmity with the peace and harmony of the country. I must, therefore, regard this clause as asserting the power to be in Congress to establish offices of discount in a State, not only without its assent,but against its dissent; and so regarding it, I cannot sanction it. On general principles, the right in Congress to prescribe terms to any State, Implies a superiority of power and control, deprives the transaction of all pretence to compact between them, and terminates, as we have seen, in the total abrogation of freedom of action on the part of the States. But fur ther, the State may express, after the most solemn form of legislation, its dissent, which may from time to time thereafter be repeated, in full view of its own interest, which can never be separated from the wise and beneficient operation of this Gov ernment; and yet Congress may,. by virtue of the last proviso, overrule its law, and upun grounds which, to such State, will appear to rest on a constructive nececcity arid propriety, and nothing more. I re gard the bill as asserting tbr Congress the right to incorporate a United States Bank with power and right to establish effigies of discount and deposit in the several States of this Union with or without their consent; a principle to which I have always hereto fore been opposed, and which can never obtain my sanction. knd war'ing all other considerations growing out of its other pro visions, I return it to the House in which it originated, With these my objections to its approval. JOHN TYLER. Washington, August 16, 1841. THE VISIT TO THE, U. S. SHIP DEL. AWARE. The Presid - nt did not visit the Delaware on Saturday. The heads of Department, with the exception of the 'Secretary of the Treasury, numerous members (4 Con gress, invited guests and ladies, did The National Intolligencer ham a long and inter esting account of the affair. That paper says: The Delaware, trhough rated as a seven ty-four, carries 88 guns;-of which, thirty two are on her lower gun-deck, forty twc pounders; thirty-two on her upper gun-deck thirty-two pounders, and the rest on her spar-deck. She mounts eight °fib° newly invented Paixhan guns, which differ little from others, save that the bore is larger and the gun consequently not so thick, and there is 4 more exact apparatus fur depres sing and elevating them; they are fired by percussion caps, and there is a minutely graduated brass scale by which to regulate the sights. The ball they fire is hollow, in fact a small•sized bomb-shell, charged with powder only, and fired point-blank, instead of at an angle, as bombs are fired from mortars. A shot, when charged, weighs fifty pounds, and contains a pound rot gun powder; the full charge to propel it is eight pounds, though less than that, and as low as five pounds, is sometimes used. The dirnentions of the ship are as fol. lows: Extreme length, over all, 209 feet,. Extreme beam 5443. Depth of the hold 2L. Length of the keel for tonnage 102. Carpenter's tonnage 2395.4.05. Eeight Irom lower edge of rabbit of keel to, top of gun-deck 24.8 'Between lower and upper .gtui decks 7.10 Between upper gun.deck and epir-deck 7,6. Between spar deck and round-louse 6.14. Her draught, aft, at present is 25-6. She carries two chain cables, aad one of hemp, each of 120 fathoms in length; the former being stopped by a new patent con trivance with a screw, called, if we remem ber right, "Mii's stopper." . We have also the following animated sketch of a mock engagement: "After the Men had refreshed themselves bye good dinner, the drums beat to "gener al quarters,". which signifies that the pnen are to man all the . guns and prepare for action. No sooner was this order • given than a scene of action and bustle ensued which •it would be difficult for a landsman to conceive, and which oneemeeen • can nor .er be forgotten. • The whole cnlttu seemed suddenly ..to have been seized with one universal ,madness; they ran about in ell direetiomt, as if a lighted 'quit) -wasattach ed behind each man, from which he was vainly trying to escape. One, had arms and bosom full of-pistols; another wee, carrying hatchets and boarding-pikes; an miter was running with a load pEcutlassee; another had a rammer in his band; soother was pulling a• round tow-bag off the spunge which was to spunge out the piece; some were taking off the aprons, or covtirings, from the touchholes; others were clearing out the touch-holes with small wires; others were engaged is handling the breechings, or heavy ropes, which receive the recoil of the guns; others elevating and pointing the guns; the lights were extinguished; the magazine opened; catridges were handed up; and more things done in a minute than can well be told in half an hour; the men hurrying backward and forward; the officers delivering orders through their speaking trumpets; midshipmen passing about every where; not a voice heard but the voice of command; till, at length, after all these multiplied and semingly confused move meats had come to a pause, the word "Finer was given; and then the mock engagement began in earnest. The heavy guns were discharged irregu larly, but in very rapid succession, some times several at once, jarring the ship from stem to stern; in the meanwhile, the ma rines commenced discharges of musketry on the .par-deck, in which they were ac companied by the sailors, each of whom had a short gun and pistol, both of which they reloaded; firing away with all their might. The effect of these mimic thun ders was truly astounding to landsmen, and in the midst of it an officer went to the gangway, with a large wooden rattle,which ho plied vigorously for some momeats,when presently up came the men, in troops, treading on one's heels in their haste, with boarding pikes, axes broad short swords, With which they clioched the balwarks as &expecting to meet an enemy endeavoring to scale their marine ramparts and to take the ship by boarding. Those with the pikes stood on the deck and thrust over the hammocks, as if at the heads of assailants; while those with the swords rushed to the top and there stood upon the hammocks, (which are close 's stowed above the bul warks,) brandishing their [night broad blades and looking over as if to see their, foes climbing the bulwarks from , without. Sometimes they all rushed in a crowd to wards the bowsprit, sometimes to one side of the ship, sometimes to the other, as the orders of the officers resounded in the confu sion; meanwhile the ferty•two pounders, were thundering away below, and thus they I continued to demolish their imaginary assailants until, having sunk and destroyed ! them, they were odered to desist, and the drums beat a triumphant sound as if in cell• bration of the victory. During this w hole scene—e scone which no words can adequately describe—the visi• tors stood in astonishment, some having climbed up on the heats between the masts, others being mounted on the round hope,' and among them to the astonishment of I many, stood the ladies, no whit dismayed or disposed to quail or faint, but seeming , rather animated and excited by the sights! and sounds around the'm, although the atmosphere was filled with smoke, it was impossade to heat' yonrself speak, and the deck trembled be'rieath their feet. LOSS OF THE ERIE The•fellowing aro further particulars, in refer ence to this melancholy disaster a brief uccount of which was elven in our last: From4he 134110 Com. Adver, Augua 10th MOST APPALLING CALAMITY ! Destruction of the Steamboat Erie by Fire. and the loss of one hundred and seventy tiros! Little did we think 3 esterday in penning a brief paragraph in commendation of the Erie, that, to day we should be called upon to record the destruction of that boat to gether with the loss of life unequalled on our own or almost any other waters. The Erie left the dock at 10 minutes past 4, P. M. loaded with merchandise, destined for Chicago, and, as nearly as now can be ascertained, aboit two hundred persons, including passengers and crew on board.— The boat •had been thoroughly overhauled, and although the wind was blowing fresh, every thing promised n pleasant and pros_ peruus voyage. Nothing occurred to mar this prospect till about A, when the boat was off Silver Creek, about 8 miles from shore, and 33 miles from this city, when a slight explosion was heard, and immediately, in stantaneously almost, the whole vessel was enveloped in !limes. Capt. Tires, who was on the upper deck, at the time, rushed to the Ladies Cabin to obtain the Life Pre servers, of which there were from 90 to 100 on board, but so rapid had been the progress of the flames, he found it impossi ble to enter the cabin. He returned to the upper deck, on his way giving orders to the Engineer to stop the engine, the wind and the headway of the boat increasing the fierceness of the flames and driving them aft. The Engineer replied that in conse quence of the flames he could not reach the engine. The eteerman was instantly direr. ted to put the balmy hard a starboard.— The vessel swung slowly round, heading to the shore, and the boats—there were three on board—were then 'ordered .to be lowered. Two ofthe boats were lowered, bot in consequence of the heavy sae on, and the headway of the vessel. they both swamped as soon as they touched water.— We will not attempt to describe the awful and appalling condition of We, passengers. Some were frantic with fear and. horror, others plunged headlong madly into the water, others again seized upon any thing buoyant upon which - they could lay hands. The small boat forward had been lowered. it was alongsi de tne wheel, with three or (bur persons in it', when the captain jumped in and the bunt immediately dropped astern filled with water. A lady floated by. with a lila preserver ant. Sbectied fur help. There was no safety in the boat. She taught the oar and wail saved. It was Mrs. Lynda of Mil waukie,and she was the only lady saved.— In this condition, the boat was a mass of fierce fire, and the passengers and crew endeavoring to save themselves by swim. using or supporting themselves by,whatov er they could reac—they were' found by the Clintou at about 10, P. M. The Clio ton left here in the morning; but in conse• quence of the wind had put into Dunkirk.— She laid there until nearly sunset, at which time she ran out, and had proceeded as far as Barcelona, when just at twilight, the fire of the Erie was discovered some 2t miles astern. !The Clinton immediately put about and reached the burning wreck about 10. It was a fearful sight. All the upper works of the Erie had been burned swap The engine was standing,but the hull wage mass of dull, red flame. The passengers and crAw were floating around, screaming in their agony and shrieking for help. The boats of the Clinton were instantly lowered and manned, and every person that could be seen or beard was picked up, and every possible relief afforded. The Lady, a little steam boat lying at Dunkirk, went out of that harbor as soon as possible, after the die. covery of the fire, and arriv.d soon after the Clinton. It was not thought by the survivors that she saved any. By 1, A. M. all was still except the dead cracking of the fire. Not a solitary individual could be aeon or heard on the wild waste of wa ters. Aline was then made fast to the remains of the Erie'• rudder, and an effort made to tow the hapless hull ashore.— About this time the Chautauque came up and lent her assistance. The hull of the Erie was towed within about four miles of the shore-, when it sunk in eleven fathoms water. By this time it was day light.— The lines were cast off: The Clinton headed for this port, which she reached about 6 o'clock. 01 those who are saved several are bealy burned, but none are dan gerovely injured so tar as we have heard. ORIGIN OF TUC Elm—Among tl►e pas sengers on board were six painters in the employ of Mr. W. G. Miller, of this city who were going to Erie to paint the steam boat Madison. They had with them demijohns filled with spirits of serpentine and varnish, which, unknown to Capt Titus, were placed on the boiler deck over the boilers. One of the firemen, who were saved, says he had occasion to go on deck, and seeing the demijohns,removed them.— They were replaced, but by whom is not knows,. Immediately preview; to the burst ing fo:th of the flames, as several on board have assured Jri, a slight explosion was heard. The demijohns had probably burst with the heat, and their inflammable con tents taking fire instantly, communicated to every part of the boat, which, having been freshly varnished, caught as if it bad been gun-powder. Not a paper nor an article - of any kind was saved. Of course it is impossible to give a complete list of those on board. Of cabin passengers, Capt. Titus thinks there were between thirty and forty, of whom ten or twelve were ladies. In the steerage were about HO passengers, nearly all of whom were Swiss and German emmigrants. They were mostly in families with the usual proportion of men, women and chil dren. The heart bleeds at the thought. It is a singular coincidence that the Erie was burned at almost identically the same spot where the Washington was burned in June, 1939. Capt. Brown, who commanded the Washington at that time happened to be on board the Clinton, and was very active to saving the survivors of the Erie. THE WILLIAM BROWN HORRORS.- We yesterday noticed the arrest of a sailor named Alexander W. Holmes r one of the crew of the William Brown. The charge against him is for murder, and it is prefer ed by Sally Corr and Bridget McGee—two of the passengers. The former testified that she did not hear any thing said by the boat's crew before they commenced throw ing persons overboard; but she saw a black man, Henry Murray, catch hold of a young man named Frank Askin—that Frank asked a Scotch woman to plea) for his life—that he offered five sovereigns if they would spare him till morning; and that they nevertheless threw him over board. Murray and Holmes did the deed. One of Frank's sisters begged that if they threw him overboard, to throw her over also. They threw over 16 of the passen• gers, including two sisters of Askin. Wit ness heard her cousin, Charles Coulon, go forward and say to Holmes—" Holmes, dear, sure I'll not have to go over." Holmes said, "Charley you must go." Thena girl ofeixteea cried out to spare him, for he was the last of a family of fif teen that had gone down in the vessel. She heard a plunge in the water, and said it was Holmes who Narrated in throwing them over. In addition to the two above named, she mentioned Charles Gruith and Jack Stetson, as having assisted in the dreadful work. Owen Corr in , his affidavit,after recapitu• 'sting the first scene of the disaster, says there was but one sailor in, before the passengers got into the boat, and that he was putting tn the plugs—that there were six sailors and, the mate in the boat when she pushed off—that sixteen or iiesenteen passengers were thrown overboard in the night, and about thirteen were felt. He says that Murray and Holmes were most active in Throwing the passengers over. —ln this they all agree. Holmes -is a Swede about 25 years of age. The little boy, Owen Corr, is about 12 years of age, and among the victims that perished, were his father, mother, brother and sister. Holmes was duly committed to answer the charge of murder on the high seas. Phila.

On Wednesday, the Bill to establish a uniform system of bankruptcy passed the House of Repre sentatives with one amendment, (postponing its operation to February next,) which amendment was immediately concurred in by the Senate. The Bill has since received the signature of the President, and is now a law of the. land. FIIIIDERICE. COW/NTT BASK.—Tho , Westmin ster Carrelltonien of Friday morning last says, that an Englishman, who has been in Westmins ter for a week past, was arrested on Wednesday last, on the camp-ground near Sams creek, on suspicion of having been engaged in the robbery of the Frederick County Bank, and was taken off immediately to Frederick. It is said that be was in Frederick at the time . the robbery was commit• ted, and decamped in the night after the discovery. The Veto. We lay before our readers the reasons assigned by the President for refusing his sanction to the Bank Bill. Wo will not attempt to disguise our regret at the course which he has seen proper to pursue. It has grieved the hearts of mo?t of our friends. It cannot be denied that the great major ity of those who elevated the present administra tion to power ardently desired, and confidently expected the creation of a Bank of the United States by the present dominant party. We be lieve with them, that such an inatitinion desire. ble for the collection and disbursement of the public revenue, and 'indispensable to regulate the currency. Without such regulation of the currency we believe business will not revive and maintain a steady position. Without any par ty views, therefore, we feel deeply moitifird at this defeat of the expectations of the people, and the prosperity of the nation. But while we thus freely express our regret, we would not be under stood u speaking in a party point of view. Wo do not agree that the creation of a bank of the United States formed an article in the creed of the party to which wo belong. We know that the exclusive commercial Whigs did make it the chief object of their desires—the great idol of their affections—the all-absorbing, the only point of their faith. But the Democratic party held a va riety of opinions on that ambject, although as wo . have before said a large majority of them were in favor of it. The Whigs made the support of a National Bank the fundamental article of their creed;—the Locofocos made opposition to it theirs; the Derdocrats left it an open question unconnee ', ted with party politics, as we think it ever ought to be. It follows from what we have said, that while we think the President ought to have signed the bill, it does not becotim us to denounce him as treacherous to our party, for not doing that which we never made a party test. While we are free to confess that we think the Veto was dicta ted Sy no enlarged and magnanimous sacrifice of personal pride, yet we believe it was honestly done. Why should Mr. Tyler run the risk of of fending the great majority of the Democratic par ty except through some mistaken but honest mo tive of duty! We have a right to expect now, that all the sincere anti-bank radicals wi!l join our -party, and aid us in carrying this State against the bank-bought and hank protecting Porter. If they will not join our party, and sustain the gen eral Administration on account of this olio act which - they so bight) , applaud, why should we de sert our party and oppose the adininistrution on account of the same act although wo disapprove of it.• We have toiled too long and spent too much time end labor to overthrow the Federalists to kick the whole over 'in a -passion because of one error in our servants. If the Locofocos can do without a Bank why cannot the democrats, until the crushing necessi ties of the country shall convince all, oven Vir ginia Pride, that it mual be created. Let us swat 11.m our rising anathimas, and forget our unmanly lamentations, and fall furiously at work, vent our spleen upon the Locofocoe at the October election, and secure the State to true Democracy by elect ins Honest JOHN BANKS, The Blue Lights an now tantalizing - ar s as tlid' .ISiimpson'e enemies when they criesLiether.Philimaltes-aze,upon thee:" But Ulm him: wailtaintures and clay them, "bespesrpaor hasps."'

Porter. View his robhory of the State; his violation of his professionq his aiding the Winks to suspend specie payments, and then pre tending to condemn them for it. Hie dividing the spade of the treasury with his Attorney central, Canal Commissioners and Kitchen Cabinet; his sinking the State in FORTY MILLIONS '4l debt end his loading the people with Monstrous tsars. with this ergot of John Tyler, and then ask younielvee if it be not shameful to remain calm and mild towards this State plunderer, while your math ui so efeld 'garnet the honest but suing President? We 'believe the President has more seriously violated an article of our patty creed hi neglecting speedily, to remove from office every unprincipled Federahat, and put honest and capable Democrats in their place. But this, we trust; will yet be done after the perplexities insep arable from the organization of a new administra tion shell have been overcome. Wo verily believe that obeying the' wishes of the people in this re• epect will restore the energy of the party, and ena ble us to carry the country triumphantly through the next State and Presidential elections. Xew Bank Bill. In the Houso on Friday last, Mr. 1 4 1zitoexxx* Chairman of the Committee on the Currency , reported a Now Bank 'Bib. It is styled “The Fiscal Corporation of the United States." • , The capital to be s2l,ooo,ooo,instead of $30,- 000,000—514,000,0C° to be owned by subscribers and $7,000,000 by the United States—fourteen millions may hereafter be added to the capital ,of twenty•one millions. Instead of Branches the Bank is to have *igen des established wherever the Secretary of the Treasury may think proper, or the mother Bank may choose to establish with the consent of the Secretary of the Treasury. A State Bank may be a Branch, or an Agent—or any number olio- . dividuals may be an Agency of the Bank. Nothing is said of assent or dissent—nothing about discounts. The Corporation 'is to have power to deal exclusively in Foreign Bills of Ex change, or in Bills of Domestic. Exchange drawn in ono state or Territory and payable in anoth er." The report was read, ordered to be'printed, and referred to the Committee of the whole. Congessional.--Veto Message and Bank Bill. In the Senate, on Thursday last the Veto Mes sage and Bank Bill were taken up, when quite an animated debate arose:—a report of which we subjoin, taken from the Baltimore Patriot. The discussion was commenced by Mr. Cr,sy, of Ky. Mr. CLAY said-,-The bill which forms the subject of consideration at this time, is , returned to us from the President after hav ing received the constitutional support of tho two Houses 'of Congress. The ques tion is—shall this Bill pass by a majority of two thirds notwithstanding the objections of the President. It would have been agreeable, to me, said Mr. Clay. to have given a adult vote upon the Bill before the Senate, and 1 cer tainly should have done so, had not a vindi cation of my own course been made neces sary by the language of the Message.— Considering the comments of the President - -the importance of the subject--the pro. visions in the Bill—the relation in which he stood—considering all this, I feel impelled to vindicate myself in respect to my own honor and independence—to vindicate my- ; self for what has been done. I came to %Vashington, said 31r. Clay, at the commencement of the present session . , with buoyant hopes in reference to the common good of our common country.— Towards the Chief Magistrate I felt , then and feel now, :1:2 t of the wait pro found respect, both personally and in an officiel capacity. In whatever I may say,therefore,lshall en deavor to give no offence in language or in feeling to the chief mageitrute of the Union. Knowing him as I have, long and welt, and upon terms of intimacy 'as have been, .I certainly have great respect for the Presi deot, and trust that our intimate relations ..vill.nuver be disturbed. Mr. Clay referred to the death of Genet al Harrison upon the 4th of April—the ap pearance of the President here on the 6th— the gloom in which he bind the city —and the pledge which he made to-the Ameri can People in an address,patriotic, eloquent,. noble, and which made every American I heart beat high. Before the address, he, in common with some others, bad some doubts as to .what course the President `would pursue, but-the pledge dispelled all doubt. It was a Whig paper throughout, and in it the President in the spirit of putri otism and good feeling referred to the fa• thers'of the Republic whose wishes he de sired to carry out Mr. Clay proceeded to the consideration of the bill before the Senate. ' He hod come here in the spirit of conciliation and com promise, and had acted in that spirit M eve ry movement he' had made. The name—" Fiscal Agent"—he object ed to, hut he was not disposed to be partic ular in regard to a name, and yielded his objections. In regard to the place, He yielded all his opinions of convenience to others. He believed the city of Washington was the last place in the Union. where a Mother Bank should be placed. . In regard to the compromise provision of the Bill, he and many of his friends.yiel ded very much in consenting to such a re• quisition of the Banking power as was con templated. Mr. Clay then referred to the remarks in the message in reference to the 'conflict of opinion in regard to the Bank of the United States.' The President . states the question as though there had been a balance of opin ton between the Executive and Congress. Mr. Clay thought the . Exeeutive was mis taken. Washington had approved .a Bank —Madison had approved a Bank—Monroe had approved'a Bank, and Jefferson with him—the last, lon, - by the establishment of the Branchwof the Great Bank. Five Congrestesjeo, had declared themselves in favor of the Ifarik, and not - one against the power. The . President, too, had said nothing of the Supremo Court—although the Judiciary of the Country had 'sanctioned the Consti tutionality "of such a Rank, the President had made no allusion to this high power in speaking of the conflict of opinion on the part of the .higher powers of the Govern. tnent. Mr. Clay next proceeded to comment mildly upon the strung opinions expressed in the message of the President upon the Bank bill. He considered them as too glowing and exaggerate&L—that he had paintiid them too highly. Mr Clay here dwelt upon the conduct of Mr. Madison—at a great and trying `time in his own history. Such a precedent he-thought might have governed the et m• duct of the President of the United States. No one could or would doubt the patriotism of the President. The last part of the message commented upon was the comments in reference to the lath fundamental rule of the Bank Bill presented to the President. He consider ed the comments of the President harsh I and uncalled for. 'flie clause was inserted by compromise, and conceived in the spirit ofconciliation. It received his reluctant assent, and the reluctant consent or many of his friends. It was brought forward in the hope and expectation that it would meet the objections of the President, and the objections of some of his friends. Mr. Clay said the clause was intended as a peace-offering, and it was not received in the same spirit in which it had been of. fermi. A principle in which much had been yielded to the President as was con ceived, was denounced by him - in terms which he conceived to be both harsh and ungenerous. In conclusion, said Mr. Clay, I - regret more thae any one in or out of this Hall, the event which has made it necessary for me to speak. No man regrets it so much as I do. If we have failed to concur with the President in one great measure, there are many left in which we shall concur. • - In regard to a Bank of the United States said Mr. Clay, the question left is—what shall be done? To my friends I-say go on, go en. Perfect your measures. As an' Sesiafer I will throw no obstacles• in the way, and support the merunito if I can. Our measures may yet be curried out, and to all i say-Shall•we bd'exeited by any irapraper feelings and go hume . in dis gust? No; no, NO. Come what May; let us at This end.of Pennsylvania, Avenue do our duty, and nothing short of our duty. We owe this duty to the country and let us not fa I I it. • ' [MI. Clay having concluded his remarks, •the Private Secretary of the President appeared with three messages from the Pres ident,and information of the President's sig: nature to the Bill for the establishment of a uniform system of Bankruptcy in the U. States. The same Bill was only this morning signed by the President of the Senate.] Mr. RIVES of Va. made some remarks in. reply, and in vindication of the President of the United States. He thought the remarks of the Senator from Kentucky re. solved themselves into an arraignment and inculpation ofthe President. He thought the Preeident had pursued a consistent coorse, and that the first address of the i'resident issued on the 9th of April held out no hope of a Bank. In regard to the Fathers of the Republic, he con• sidercd the • President had tl'e testimony of Madison in '9l and Jefferson elation fa. vor of his opinions, even in spite of all which had been said to the contrary in reforen& to Mr. Jeffermon. ltlr. Rives contended that the reason Mt' .• Madison , had signed the Bank, was beeause he had changed his opinion in regard to the constitutionality of the Bank. Nor only this, he wished to show that the circumstances were different, and such as to etruse ftlr. Madit.ini and not Mr.-Tyler. Mr. Jefferson - was vindicated 'in' like 'manner for signing the net of 1804, by Which a bainch of the U. S. Bank was established in New Orb ens, and the act ,br 1 8 09, for punishing the counterfeiting of Bank paper. Mr. Rives referred to Mr. Clay's speech of IF-11 to find an excuse for the' act of Mr. Jctferson in opposing those two Bills. From this vindication Rives drew the conclusion lie had stated that the President had' shown re spect for the Fathers of the Republic, by . vetoing the Bank. He'had, hereonceived, the light o! their examples. Mr. Tyler was moreover a strict State Rights man, distinguished in that school, and rendered conspicuous for his devotion to State Rights principles. Mr. Tyler was fUrther vindicated as having ell his opinions 'Well,knoWn upon,the vexed ques tions at the time of his-nomination at Har risburg.' Mr. Tylei,s opinions for a long lime past, in all his published papers and speeches, were referred to for the purpose of showing that the Executive had been• consistent in his opinions in opposition to a Bank of the U. Sallee. Gen. Harrison' was placed in the - same category by the Senator from Virginia, and Mr Rives en deavored to prove that Gen. Harrison would have hem] equally opposed to a Bank of the United Slates. , In regard to the message of the Presi dent, Mr. Rives saw nothing in it which did not authorise the • organization of ,a Fiscal agent of exchange and capable of performing some of the powers of banking which would be beneficial to the people. Mr. Rives, in conclusion vindicated the President from the harsh language in which the Senator from Kentucky said the Presi dent had clothed some portions of his Mes sage. Ile thought the President had done whet he had with a clear conscience. With all due deference' to the Senator from Kentucky who, Mr. Rives said, had exhorted his friends to go on and make a Bank of the United States, he hoped no such effort would be made at the present session. He was wearied and worn but by these dog-day sessions, and hoped that no new fiscal measure would be attempted now. Let the question be postponed until the next session. Nothing but evil he believed would come from action upon any Bank measure at the present session of-Congress. Mr-CLAY - said in reply to the Senator from Virginia, that-ho deeply regretted to• hear his remarks, and the wish le bad expressed in reference to a Bunk of. the United-States. He was sorry to- see the Senator willing to leave the finances of the country under the control of the Executive It vase com plate union of the purse & sword. The second speech of Mr. Clay in reply to Mr. Rives was of , tremendous power and effect—though very brief. In the course of it he made a disclaimer to the' Sinister from Virginia. of any intention to inculpate the President for his conduct.- . ' • • Some remarks were continued by Messrs. Archer and his colleague—when at o'clock the vote was taken and was as fol lows, the question the bill pass?—ayes 25—noes, 24. The Senate Then adjou'rned. . . . -, ArcoTeen Oneativtiz.
