their chairman, Win. J. puanej on. the 28th of Jaifu ary i 1820 i ' - r ■ “As to the extent of the distress it might he answered, in the language of the resolutions under which your committee act, that it is general; it ex tends, indeed, to the pursuits and habitations of the former capitalists, as well as to those of the motehumblo farmer and mechanic; thereis no part of the Commonwealth into which calamity has hot penetrated, or in which numerous victims have not been found. But with regard to the extent of the loss^which the State has suffered from thedostruc tiqnof capital, the emigration of our citizens to the wilderness, the'stagnation of business, the deteri oration of landcdpropcrty, and the prostration of manufactories, and, above all, in the change of the moral character of many of our citizens by the presence of distress, your’ committee are utterly Unable to decide; the extent of the mischief, they believe, defies scrutiny and surpasses the power of calculation. “From the namorous petitions which "have been presented at the present ‘session, your committee quote the following extracts, which describe scenes of distress, such as have been seldom,- if ever, before beheld on this side of the Atlantic: “Sundry citizens of Northumberland county declare— “The currency is so diminished as scarcely to suffice for the transaction of tho most ordinary bu siness; the produce of the country has met with an unprecedented reduction; tho greater part, of tho citizens of thia once flourishing Commonwealth, even with the Utmost-economy and industry, ore scarcely able to obtain sufficient articles to sustain life; real and personal property-are dally sacrificed .and become tho prey ofepoculators; debts are un paid, creditors are dissatisfied, and tho prisons are crowded with honest, but unfortunate persons, whose.wives and children must bo a burden on tho ‘township, dr suffer for wantdfllro more necessaries' ofjrfe” ‘‘Sundry,citizens of Wayne county represent— “ From the fall Of every kind of produce* the scarcity of the circulating medium,' and other cau ses, the general distress in our part of the State hath become so great and alarming, as to call for the attention and wigdom of the Legislature? Our most industrious citizens are no longer able to meet. their engagements, but their hard-earned property is daily sacrificed at a nominal value, and falling into the hands of a few speculators.** .“Sundry inhabitants of Pike county assert— “At no time, since the Revolution has greater distress been felt th*in at the present moment.— We consider the banking system to have been the principal cause; instead of was pre dicted, blessings to the people, banks have become like the scorpions among the children of Israel, perfect beasts of prey. • The property of the great portion of our industrious people is brought to sale at one fourth of its value, and struck off to specu lators, leaving honest creditors* unpaid, aud i'am lies reduced to beggary.” “Sundry inhabitant of Huntingdon county rep resent— r “That the mass of the people are utterly unable at once, to pay their debts; that tlieir property is selling at such rates, that oven the i: .feos of law.offi cers arc not realized; that the industrious are im poverished, whilst the speculating part of the community arc daily growing more wealthy; that the evil is only beginning; and demands legislative interpositioh.'* ;' “A memorial from sundry citizohs of'tlie.west ern parts of the State, asserts— “ That embarrassment is universal: that the sor did and avaricious arc acquiring-the sacrificed property of the liberal and industrious; that so much property is exposed-to sale under execution, that buyers cannot bo had to pay more for it than the fees or.the officers: that those mischiefs, instead of diminishing are daily increasing, and that over trading.and the facility of gutting credit have pro duced these'effects.* “The petition of the Inhabitants cf Fayette county represents— “ ‘Thatthe fictitious capital and boundless credit extended by banking, the almost universal spirit .of speculation, the-prostration of manufactures by the mistaken policy of the national Government, the introduction of luxuries and extravagances, and o reduction of exports, have produced a longtnpn* of calamities: that industry is paralyzed—that the precious metals have vanished—that the banks are tottering—that litigation is unprecedented in ex tent, and ruinous in its effects—that many merci less creditors, not content with plunging unfortu nate debtors into the most abject poverty, frequently take from them the whole of that property to them selves, which in bettor times would pay the sums due to all, leaving the unfortunate debtor in jail, and his family in misery.* “These art> but a' few of the extracts, which might be presonted to the House'and placed upon the journal; but these arc deemed sufficient, ac companied by the remark, that these representa tions arc not only supported by all other petitions presented at this session, but by the testimony of the members of the Legislature, coming themselves from all quarters of the State.** The committee.ihen give a short sketch of the commercial history-of the country, after which they eay— ° “In defiance of all experience, andin contempt of warnings almost prophetic, which were given to them at the time, the people of Pennsylvania, during an expensive war, and in the midst of great embarrassment,, established forty one now hanks with a capital of seventeen-and a half million of dollars, and authority to issue hank notes to double tbatamount! In consequence of this most destruc tive measure, the inclination of. a large part of the people, created by past prosperity, tolivc'-by specu lation and not by labori’ was greatly increased; a spirit in dll respect akin to gambling.prevailed: a fictitious value was given to all: descriptions of properly: specie was driven; from circulation, as if by common consent, and’all efforts to restore society’ to its natural condition,Wore treated with undis guised contempt.” - : ■ “These remarks are,followed by a short'view of operations subsequent to the war, after which, the declaro 'A new measure, however, re mained to be adopted, that was really to close, the last Scene in the drarria.of error: the currency had already nearly vanished, but was temporarily re-. stored.on the seaboard. The enormity of fictitious, credit began to be fel t : the abusive.,extent of paper tissues'was about to effect its own remedy in the State, when Congress created a corporation , with authority to circulate upwards of one hundred muttons of a,new paper medium—a corporation spreading its. branches over the Union, with a . baneful influence of the fabled Upas. . . “‘Awakened by the quick succession of events so disastrous, from .the dream of perpetual -pro - -1 parity under which they had so long been entranced, this people how find themselves involved in die* t esses, against which-no.provisien had been made, end against which, they allege, they can find no refuge but in legislative interference.”? Mr. Crawford, Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, in a communication ,to Congress about the same period, gives an inmirhished .picture of the ettecls produced by an inflated paper circulation. . “Poverty and distress,” says he, “are impend-. . ihgovertho heads of most.of those.whb have at feinpted So improve,their farms by thpsiid.of.bank; 'credits. So general.is this distress;.that,the prin cipal’attention.of the State begislatufcs, where the evil exists, is’al this moment directed to. the adop tion of.measures.calculsWd.torescue their fellow citizens from the inevitable, effects of their own. credit which > has been introduced through the agency of banks, ■biought homc to every man’s door, has produced a fictitious state' of things extremely adverse to the sober, frugal, and industrious habits, ; which might to be cherished in a republic. In place of these virtues, extravagance, idleness, aha the spirit of gambling ad venture, have .been, .engendered and fostered by pur institutions.”,, ' f :;'l?he same; reportTstatek that’withm-tliree iVeanr the.

It Is forced upon us by facta of tho moat in? conteatiblo character; It is indicated by the di minished exports of native produce: by'the depress ed and reduced state of our.foreign navigation; by our diminishcdcomroorcef by successive unthresh ed crops of grain, perishing in our barns and yards for want of a market; by tho alarming diminution of the circulating medium; by the numerous bank ruptcies not limited to tho trading classes, but.ex tending to all orders of society; by an universal complaint of tho want of employment and a con sequent reduction of tho of labor; by. the ravenous pursuit after public situations, not for tho sake of their honors, and tho pcrfornanco. of their public, duties, but as a moans of private subsis tence; by tho reluctant resort to,the perilous use of PAPER MONEY; by tho intervention of loglsla and above all, by the low and depressed state of tho value of almost every description of the whole mass of property of tho nation which has, on an average, supk not leas than 50 per cent, within a few* years. * *' * *• “Tho truth is, that no' class of society suffers meu in tho present stagnation of business than the laboring classes. That is a necessary defect of tho depression of agriculture, the principal business of tho community. Tho wages of able bodied mcn-vary-from $5 to $8 per month; and such has been the want of employment, in some parts of tho Union, lhai instances have not been unfrequent, of men working for a mere subsistence. ' If the wages of labor hero and in England are compared, they ■will be fiiund not to be essentially different.” This portrait of distress and ruin was drawn bythe Senator.during tho vcry-climax of the power of the Bank of the United States. • - - ■ . - I would inquire whether the misfortunes and calamities ?o minutely described in 1820 and 1824 were, not of the same character with those now complained of? Whether banks, and banks atone, were not the power ful agents .that Masted the industry of the husbandman, the mechanic, and merchant, reducing to insolvency and despair multi tudes of honest, and enterprising citizens? I now assert that the same-causes have pro - duced like .results in 1838, 1839,. and 1840, and I will prove the fact by the use of a few figures. According to the report of the Secretary of the Treasury, already refer red to, the currency of the'United Slates had been reduced in three years, preceding 1820; from ,$110,000,000,10 $45,000,000; and in 184 Q we discover that in one year anterior, the amount of bank.circulation was contracted from $135,000,000 to $106,000,- 000. In both instances.the sums of money withdrawn from the public use are astound ing.. In three years antecedent to 1820, it amounted to $55,000,000, or more than one half of the whole circulation, and in one year prior to 1840 it exceeded $33,000,000; nearly one fourth of the sum total. Now it is plain to the most common understanding that if the currency of the country be re duced, property must fall in proportion to the reduction, and if it bCincrcased, a rise of prices will ensue in the same ratio. Debts incurred will be made easy by expansion, and will again become the sources of ruin and insolvency through contraction. A farmer, for instance, who, in 1815, when the banks inundated the country with their paper, and the circulating medium was $110,000,000, purchased a farm for slo,oooand paid $5,000 in cash, would, in 1820, still be in debt in re ality, more than the original amount of $lO,OOO, and would be a bankrupt into the bargain, his debt being more than doubled, and hisproperty depreciated mure than oifc half byThc decline of the currency to $43,- 000,000, as the following table of the price of the best-improved land in Pennsylvania, at three different periods, will show. The second column gives the price the land bore in the height of speculation, which was indif ereut counties in diflerentycars. as the banks extended their operations into them. 1809 1819 8.-dfnrcV s3oto 40 80to 100(18)5) -2010.10 Lebanon, 40 to 60 130 to 150(1816-1?)

These institutions being.held in. check by the fear of a demand upon them for specie, will con iine their .operations within more reasonable limits, but there is not thconost remoteproba bilily that tbe r measure will destory a single, sound bank in the country. On the ‘other hand, it is to be feared it will not control, as far as'could be desired, the profligate and lawless peculations of insolvent corporations. Buyb- checkingToreign importations, which' do, the country will be most,essentially benefited. Afterihe year I’B’4'3,.gold and silver will be required in payment of all the revenues of the U nifed States. -The merchant, instead of importing bn the credit : of the Govern ment, will be obliged to pay file custom-house dues in cash. Tliis.will,teach hiin prudence and^circumspection, .and will drive out of market the host of British bgenta and specu lators, ivho, after bawking.Bieif merchandise around the world; usually throw the refuse ■into the'auction marts: of New York; Tand upbn the duties'.due oh this trash, establish a capital .for the purpose faf competing-with the Amcrioan manufacturers; and undersell ing h.ini at his own door. ,: Bufwe are gravely told thattlie 'passage of this bill’wilf diminish the "wages, of labor. We arc moreover assured that the industrious classes are cnfiicly dependent upon the banks and capitalists for employment, and that any action on our part in, restraining the use of tin/public revenues by private individuals and corporations .will fall upoti the humble citizens who .live by the'sweat of .the brow.' A recurrence, however, to the commercial history of the epuntry will prove, that of all classes who have suffered from the profligacy, | ignorance, apd recklessness offhose who.are associated by the banks, the laboring men have had by far the greater share of misfor tune. Above all others in the community, they have the. least to do with banks; they receive few or no’discounts; they are never stockholders or directors; and ns their in come is limited, it is jto them all important that it should be certain, and in the legal currency, the subsistence of their families ‘depending entirely upon if. A, fixed, cur rency would enable the laborer to compute his amount of earnings at all times, and also to estimate the cost ofqmivisions: and mer chandise.- It would also secure to him steady employment. But what has been his fate udder the dominion of the banks? Have these institutions enabled him to obtain work at all seasons, and a certain return for it? By no means. Whilst prices have--been stimulated by'expansions,wages have usually remained the same.. The celebrated bullion report of a committee of the House of Com muns, says: the rate of “the wages of com mon country labor, it is well known, adapts itself more slowly to the changes which hap pen in the' valtie of money than the price of any other species of Jabor or commodity;” and, according to Adam Smith, “the wages of labor do not. in Great Britain,, fluc_tuale witli the price of provisions. These vary every where from, year to year—frequently from month tomonllvrßut in many places the mon ey price of labor remains uniformly the £ahic, sometimes for half a century together.” In 1795, in England, the price of wheat, which for three years preceding had averaged fifty four shillings per quarter, rose to seventy four shillings a quarter, and Us wages contin ued stationary, the distress of the poor was great. ■ The workingman discovci s all (he articles necessary for the subsistence of his family raising in price, whilst the money rate of his xrages-whinm the same; eonsefju'lWff, his income is diminished in proportion to the advance of rents, store goods, and provis ions, by bank expansions, . The laborer not living upon money, but upon the necessaries that money’ will buy,.it follows that wages are high or low’, not according to (heir nom inal or money amount, but according to the amount of provisions they will purchase, or, in other words, according to the command they give the laborer over the food, clothing, and lodging, conducive to his comfort and main tain ance. Speculative combinations, to improve ’lhe condition “of agriculture, commerce anti manufactures, may for a time be favorable to the industrious orders, by tending to ■en hance wages and profits; but a revulsion' throws the laboring man out of employment, and, a competition (or work naturally ensu ing, the wages of those who are notin a state of idleness arc at once reduced: and; if, a bank unfortunately breaks in the mean time; the working-class will be found to possess the largest portion of the bills, and will be the greatest sufferers. High prices and usurious, rates or interest are not the evidences of the prosperity of any country. They merely establish the fact of the increase of the currency, and the nominal rates at which houses, lands, and provisions arc sold,and do„not change, the Telation'of “these things-to-one another, by which, in truth, their value is to be esti mated. I will illustrate this by the simple proposition, that, if the circulating medium of the country be raised from $100,000,000 to $200,000,000, you double the iponcy pfice of every commodity. A farm, for instantfe, worth 810,000, will be estimated at $20,000, and an adjoining grist mill, of the value of $20,000 will sell for $40,000. The.relative position, howCver, of the farmer and miller will not be changed, nor the real value of their landand houses altered. ' The nominal priceof-lhe-millcr’s-pioperty-isdoubled.-it is true; so is that of the farmer. The nomi nal price of both mill and farm is twice as great as it was; that is all, and the owners have the same relative command of.mouey and property as before. Thus an increase of money dues not add value to land, any more than an elongation of yardsticks would enhance the intrinsic -value of broadcloth, both being merely measures,-one of value, ami the other of length. Commodities would advance.with the increase of the yard.mea sure, or fall by its contraction, in the saute way that they rise or decline by an inflation or reduction of the currency. But amidst all these changes,,jvherc is the poor laborer? He gets his dollar a day, perhaps, through every mutation, and pays two dollnrsfor,'arti r clcs that he could furmurlycommand for one. He remains upon mother earth, whilst the paper baloon carries all other classes to the clouds. He beholds in amazement the burst- 3 to 10 80 to 100 ing of the.bubble, and is still more astonish ed to find himself although standing almost isolated and alone, involved in the general calamity. ' - .But it is asserted tlmt this bill will in crease the patronage of the Executive. I inquire when, where, or how? for, truly, if any measure ever tied up the hands of a public officer effectually, this is the law. .It strips the President of the unbounded con trol he possessed over a host of banks, and an army of cashiers and directors. It de prives'him.of between eiehty aiid ninety 3e-. positories, and confines him to five or six, .with a few superintendents and clerks. .It takes frum|him the use of the public treasure, and brands a future loan from the coffers of the nation as a felony..

Now, what power has the President under’ this law?' Gan he declare war? Cam lio make peace?. Can, he "set a single squad ron in the field,” or appropriate a dollar .Trdni' the Treasury, avithout th# consent of ICS u. ~rv this House? Certainly not;'but when un-| limited sway was likely tohave.b'ecn given to him here, - in approbating" to his discre tionary, use ten millions of dollars and fifty thousand armed troops, who tendered -him ‘‘the purse and the sword” then? ■-[ Here Mr, Wise exclaimed this is a home they deserve it, and I'told them ao.J ■ Where were tlie numerous Whig gentle men whom I have under my eye?
