It will not, 1 regret, to say, be in - my power
to comply with your request. • Of the plea
sure it would afford me to accept your friend*
ly invitation, if 1 could do .so, it cannot lie
necessary to assure yon. . ~ ,
There has been no event in the course of
my public life; id winch I have taken a deep
er interest, or the Succe&s.bf which has been
mure grateful tp.my feelings; than that which,
you aie about to celebrate. Although com
pelled to propose thb measure by a sense of
public duty, which did nut adhiit of compro
mise or delay; 1. could nevertheless scarcely
allow myselt to hope for its adoption, with
out violent opposition from uniform oppo
nents; and. what was more to be regretted,
without extensive diversities of opinion in
■regard to ns expediency among friends, who
had every, claim to ihy respect and gratitude.
.It is not necessary to adrert, on an occasion
•like, this, to ihereasons upon which these ap
prehensions were founded; and you all know
the extent to which.they have been realized.
After meeting'with.an opposition, in every
respect as foniiidable as any that' ever was |
brought to bear upon a public measure; after l
having for years been proclaimed us the.
cause of the embarrassment in the pecunia
ry concerns of. the country, which it not
only had no agency in producing, but winch
I undeniably sprang from, directly opposite
causes; sustained.hypo other power than its
intrinsic merits, and the intelligence and'
patriotism of the people; tins much abused
measure has at last become established, anil,
I sincerely hope, the permanent policy of
the country.
It affords me great pleasure to be able, to
say to you that thus far the new system has
worked well; —indeed, equal to my -must
Sanguine expectation, aiid without any con
siderable inconvenience to the government,
notwithstanding the temporary embarrass
ments which usually attend .great Changes
in the management of public
j has becn-in any. respect unfavorable in its
practical operation, either Id the convenience
or interest of the people; and us you truly
say, ‘‘auspicious to the hopes of every friend
of Republican government.”
They have, however, not been accomplish
ed without sacrifices, political us well Us per
sonal. The injuries to, which the general
interests of the country have been‘exposed
hum assaults upon this particular measure,
haVe been of the gravest character, and the
' division among the political friends produc
ed by the struggle have been to' me a source
ol profound regret. In no quarter has this
latter consideration occasioned greater anx
iety on nija part than in my native state.—
It was nouf-hope you will do me the justice
to believe, without pain that I found myself
deprived, upun so" vital a point, of die ap
pruving’’voices of thousands of the friends
ol my youth, ami the associates of, my 'niii
j turer years—of many who were veterans in
( therpolitical field when 1 entered it; .whom
I had often seen tried in the crucible.of po
litical adversity; without ever being known
to waver in their devotion to whaf they be
lieved to be'Jhe cause of their country, and
whose integrity of motive commanded by
unqualified confidence. Satisfied however,
~tliat theyncasure was founded on principles
Which Icuold not fail to take deep rbot, in the
hearts, aiid judgment of the people, and,
must in the end-commend itself to"die sup- 1
port of my dissenting friends, I have waited
with' confidence for the fulfilment of my
most sanguine, anticipations. Your present
assemblage, the numerous and immense gath
erings of the state which have preceded it,
the tonti of its press, and the innumerable
indications' of popular feeling 'that'"have
reached, me througlr other channels, leave
no rdom to doubt .that my utmost ivislics, in
this respecti huve been fully accomplished..

. Gentlemen: I have received jour kind,

ok like Democratic electors o [these veral
counties contiguous to the Hudson river, to
commemorate.the triumph ol lice principles
in the passage of theinuepeudent Treasury
bill.

■ not-i.n-existence.—Huwmnliypangs of grief, : J
swrow,.anguish and’ want wouldbesaved to
the mechanics apd'laborers, their, wiveh and
children;, and perhaps aged and infirm pa
rents, who. have Seen their hard earnings lor
months swept away in one night by the ras
culity and iniquity of this-.shin-plaster sy«-
tem. — They have found fjjcir pockets' filled
with paper money—notes of six and a quar
ter cents, up to 25. 50. 85, &c.. &c..’.'which,
in twenty four hours.after they lidve recei>ed
it, is worth no more than so many pieces of
brown paper. Will whigs—laboring whigs
—insist that paper is better for them than
siWer or gold? These institutions were cre
ated in Baltimore, by which speculators and'
plunderers, “for the benefit and accommoda
tion of the working classes!!” AH'ihstitu
ti.ons of the kind the whigs say are fur the
good of (he public! Howgdod the people
have had. numerous exemplary reasons'for
jjudgingt 1 Probably, the earnings of months,
and perhaps years, have been deposited ib ,
these; Baltimore shaving shops—and just on i
the eve of a_ cold and pinching winter, when
every ceiit is wanted, to- procure the actual
necessaries of life for the ensuing season,
flip hard working man finds his little wealth,
like the apple ot the Dead Sea, turned, to
ashes—not worth a straw. , Tis hard in
deed; but still these institutions are no more
to blame than otherst.it is the system—the
vile system of paper iqoncy making that
must be corrected. Until it is done there
will be no safety or security for the farmer,
mechanic, and laborer: no hope for the coun
try. The Sub-Treasury is a great step to
wards this reform, # The General Govern
ment have, in this act r done their duty;
now let the Statcs do theirs, and all will be
well
In the Gomiko Contest:
Let it be L'cntembered,
That it was the policy of the earliest fed
eralists to assimilate the institutions.of this
country to those of Great.Britain.'by fixing
upon the nation a National Debt and a Na
tional Bank—that they adopted and - put
forth the exploded maxim that "a national
debt was a national blessing,?’ and that .ii
National Bank was essentially n cccss;i ryfor
n„ "strong government.” .T~ , -S
Let itj be remembered,
That a great national bank and a great
nationahdebt will govern this counlrv-os ef
fectually as the same institutions ‘do (he
British empire, and give full force to.anoth*
er maxim of the adherents of regal power,
that “associated Wealth is the dynasty of
modern stales.” , >
Let it be .remembered.
That the late Bank of the United States,
during the struggle for a renewal of its char
ter, made the following loans to members of
congress;
In 1830, it loaned to 52 members yf con-
? ICS ?> , ' $192,101

In 1833, « ga “ 374,766
in 1834, 52 “ 238,586
Making (he sum of ONE MILLION, SIX
HUNDRED AND FIVE THOUSAND.
SEVEN HUNDRED AND EIGHTY ONE
DOLLARS', loaned by the late Bank of the
U, S, to 265 members ol Congress, within
the space of five years; being more than SIX
THOUSAND DOLLARS TO EACH
MEMBER. These facts appear from a re
port of q committee dfthe House of Repre
sentatives. What would the people of this
country say, if an individual'should resort
to the same corrupt appliances to obtain the
passage of a law, granting:to him'important
privileges? Would he not receive the just
condemnation of all, and be consigned to
everlasting infamy and disgrace?
j Let it be remembered,
-that tlie same bank,’and during the same
perihd, distributed by : way. of loans more
than .ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND

THE ADMINISTRATION AND THE
MARKETS.
“I admit said a whig the other day, that
Ogle’s speech is a base thing, but it will help
pur party,”: It is this stooging to dirty and
profligate expedients, which degrades party
disputes. Conducted as it ought to bc,'fair--
ly and honorably, in a just and generous
spirit, political controversy is a high intel
lectual contest between friends of different
systems of legislation. and as htrrnan nature
is constituted, it is not'desirable that it
sliould~.be done away. But when men de
scend to-do’ any thing which ‘will help the
party;’ without regard to truth, justice or
decency, when;men say what they do not
believe, or encourage prejudices which they
know to bo unreasonable, or circulate tracts,
which they know to be slanderous, forpatry
effect; it becomes, no better than a quarrel
among the coiners and out throats.-
The practice of charging upon the admin
istration every thing that goes wrong in the
grain markets, is'a trick of those who make
it a rule m dp any thing which will help their
party. , The very journals which insist upon
this charge, which ascribed the low prices of
grain ami the disorder of our exchanges to
the doings ol the administration, cannot help
intimating now and then that they_keep up
the cry merely to help the party, ahddonot
.believe a word of what they are- saying,—
Hereds an extract from the money article in’
the Courier of yesterday morning, relating
to tlie domestic exchanges;
“We haV|C no doubt that at this moment
the hanks of Philadelphia. Baltimore, Rich
mond, Charleston, New Orleans and Mobile,
can if they choose, place their currency on
a par with ours, or what is the same thing,
reduce the discount on their currency (p Hie
expense of the transportation of specie.”
Thus it appears liy the admission of the
very persons who raised nil this clamor, that
there is nothing in it. It is not the admin
istration who are to blame for the inconveni-’
ent state of the money market, —it is in the
banks; it is not the government who cause
exchanges to be at four per cent, on -Phila
delphia, five per cent.-on Orleans; and seven
per cent. on -Louisville—it is the banka.—
The hanks, says this champion of the whig
party, might remedy this inconvenience at
any moment. In other words the evil is the
fruit of our bad. hanking system, at the head ■
of which has stood the Bank of the U. States,
■and it is only the pehersity of the banka,
which, by the'folly of our legislature, have
been clothed with ( a dangerous and mischiev- 1
ou ? power,that the evil still continues to exists 1
Besides this confession, which seems, to
have been dropped unawares, we have the
admissions of another whig print!"' The Jour
nal of Commerce acknowledges that the evils
of the times have been owing to extravagance
in speculation and expense; We quote from
its leading article of yesterday:
"If the people of the U. States suffer the
lessons of dear bought experience Which they
have learned within the last five years to
pass bjt unimproved, they willdeserve to be'
taught in the same school again, and assured
ly they will be. . Looking back to the years
1,835 and .1836, it is astonishing to what a
degree of extravagance men : .may run in, in
their expenses, as we'll as in their adventures
and speculations. ‘ The whole community in
fact, were more orless/afilictcd with a kind
of nmnia; and it was of such a nature that
nothing'could cure' it but the terrible disas
ters which resulted from it.”

THE LAWS OF TRADE-
Three month* ago, the rate of exchange
I between Mobile anil this city was at ton per
cent., but has since been reduced to about
threo per cent. This is actually less than
the rate of exchange between this city and
Philadelphia, which is distant from u* hot
one hundred miles, one-tenth of the distance
of Mobile. The banks of Pennsylvania are
compelled to resume the payment of specie
sometime in January next,’while the banks .
of Alabama are allowed two' years wherein
to f resume. HoW dp we account for this
state of facts? Why simply on the ground
of the natural laws of trade. The cotton
crop is now cbiplng’ forward from the smiths
which enable* that portion of the Union to
liquidate the balances of debt fharit-may
have contracted with the north. In other '
words! the natural, course of business is briug
ing-exchange fo its proper position and bear
ing. No such course of trader’existing be
tween this city and Philadelphia, there can .
be no similar improvement of tlie exchanges, ---
What-a .comment facts of this kind are
upon the arguments ; of those who support-a
national bank, because of its supposed ne
cessity to regulate . exchanges; There is
now no bank, but business is beginning to
go bn as smoothly ns ever, Such reasons call
