    lorn* rtigfinilnfltflncflfl of lhli kind. 1 wilt refer
lebutonsil praieni, and that la tho.taxing the
bond* liaiied 6/the rev
enue from hfer own indebtedness, and claiming to
Ux a debt owed by hmtf % aa one of tlio means of
)u liquidation. Sftlob legislation Is repudiation In
hn Inildlou* form, bat still a disgraceful repudia
tion of tier own liabilities pro ianlo in tlio boldest
form. If; she has a right to tax her bonds In tho
hands of those who paid a valuable consideration
for them, to a limited extent, aho has the right to
tax them to the fullamount of tho dividends or
proceeds they yield, and thus defraud tho holders
of si t income on their investment.
In order that your readers may aeo on what
ground the Dank of Pennsylvania resists this claim
for a tax on her dividends, 1 have taken,Hie trouble
to copy from the records of tho Auditor General’s
Office; the appeal entered by tho bank, staling the
reasons of her resisting the payment of this tax.-
After stating the account of tho Commonwealth
tgainst the bank, it is as follows:
“Tho-President. Directors and Company of the
B*nk of Pennsylvania sppoal from sold settlement to
Uie Court ofCommonFloas of tho county ofDauphin,
«od file lbs following specifications of objections :
First., They object to the settlement ol llio account
■gainst the Bank, the said Bank is legally
■xempt.from the payment of tax upon dividends in
the act renewing and extending its charter.
Second. object because to give tho words
''expressly exempt" used in the third section of the
eot of the first of April 1848, “relative to (he taxation
of Bank dividerids’* any other conatruotion than that
of •■lrgsUy" exempt would be to make the Slate do
what Is furbidden by (he constitution of the United
States. ■ !
Third. They object, becausojtho intention of (ho
Legislature to exempt the Bink from such lax, in
(he act-renewing and-extending-(ho charier, is
veeeiiariljf’ iinplted, nol only friMii the net itself, hut
from circumstances, occmring at-tho, (into of.its
pnesage, and rejeordud in the public »rchit«o-, from
coiriupuraiicoua.lcgial.dion, on tiio sumo subject, and
(rum (lie uniform construction end perfect undorsluii.
ding of-both the time the law passed
until theBth of February last., -
Fourth, 'They object because the charter is a.
contract between the State and the Oink, the oblige*
lions of which cannot ho imp tired without violating
the constitution of the United Stales.
Fifth. • ’T/ie charge* of littered Is wrong, because
the Bank woe not liable for interest urttil three months
after * balance wee aettUd against it, end- is o|io
inac«fati. 3d, 1851.
This 'therefore would aeem not only to be a con
tract, but a contract grunteduoder pecull ir circum
stances, such oe to entitle the |t «rty Halting it, to
have the facts given in rvidericn. -.Such a o.ise would
probably never arise again. Every grant o( a Iron—
cliise or privilege is nut neccss-irily a contract—but
that tills grant has all -the essential features : nnd
essence of a contract which should be observed on
the part of the Slate, is lb my mind most manifest.
1 say nothing as to its being a beneficial one to tho
commonwealth. I am strongly impressed with the
conttsry opinion. _ ...
The case of ihe Bunk of Pennsylvania furnishes
snoiher».among many, warnings-we have had, of
the improvidence with which chartered privileges
have bpen granted by (he Legislatures, of Pennsyl
vania, on many plausible pretexts. Thai the State
should, have< reserved the power to tax the divi
dends of; this bank is most manifest, for this insti
tution has been in the enjoyment of a most Valuable
franchise, yielding her stockholders about eight
per oentom per annum on an average.-since 'she
was firsf chartered in 1793. Sometimes they have
been lessln limes of depression in the money mar
ket, but often they have been much more. But
because this is so, is the remedy of the Common
wealth .to shirk out of a bargain of her own making,
or to'stand up, loit, and resolve not to.confer such
privileges in the future, without reserving at least
a full equivalent, for their exercise?in reference
to this, very bank the Legislature will have that
opportunity in a short time, as: her charier will
soon expire. My own rule of .life is to comply
with a bad;hargain, after it is made, if I can, and
when Imposition haa been, or attempted to be prac
ticed, not to deal with the same party again. Per
haps il Would.be belter, far heller, to withhold the
privilege of banking entirely, so Tar as regards
banks of issue, giving them the sovereign powtr
of regulating llie curroncy of the country, expand
ing and oontracling it at pleasure, raising and de
pressing-thei value of all kinds of property at their
will; and to grant charters only for banks of trans
fer and deposit, on the plan of the bank of Amster
dam. 'Perhaps It would be far better to refuse (he
grant of such franchises at all, as have been grant
ed for banking purposes by this and other Slates
of the Union, and which is known os American
system of banking, and to return to the principles
of the constitution of the United Stales, and suiter
the power to regulate the currency of the country
to remain where it properly belongs, in (he hands
of the Federal Government. The National Con
stitution is so cautious on .this subject, as to pro*
hibll the States from coining money, issuing bills
of credit,' Or making any thing but gold and silver
the legal currency ofthe land. The States under
the sveUmSyhloh has grown up in monstrous er
ror, 'tujd which Is in danger of becoming sanction
ed by age, did not issue bills of credit themselves,
but permit others to do so—for 1 hold that a bank
note, it 1 ! all its essential features under our present
system of banking, is a bill of credit and nothing
else in its most objectionable form. It does not
even represent coin, but merely represents (ho ere
</,7ofa bank, or its ultimate ability to meet its in
debtedness. No bank in this country pretends to
have sufficient coin to meet its immediate outstand
ing liabilities, in the shape of its notes In circula
tion.' Otir, theory of banking is, to issue three
dollars 1n paper for every dollar In specie which
the bank may have to redeem them. The
tion bf o’ur l'enhsylvania banks, as shown bylheir
returns'(o/the Auditor General for the past year
recently published, exhibit the startling fact, that
they hav.e and a half in circulation for
pvery, Ool|ar In speciev One dollar cannot redeem
three,much less four and a half. The theory there
fore of our Amerlcansystem of banking is in direct
conflict with the constitution of-the United Slates
—for,the Stales permit U to be done, and give au
thority to others to* dgjbal whjob-tbey cannot do
themselves. It is a sound rule of law, that what
one does through another, he does by himself.
in this Slate this erroneous system.of
banking privileges has run .into great excess. In
connexion with our system of .Internal imptovc
ments, Übas been the means of inflicting great
abuses upon the people. The Static to raise the
means ; to.carry,on that system, have on different j
occasions gronled • unheard of privileges. The 1
charter of the Bank of Pennsylvania Is hut a fee
ble instance of. (his great abn«e. The charter of
the United States Bank by the Slate, when it was
driven out of ihe General Government, and the is
sue of whftt are called “relief notes," in defiance
of the constitution in the latter case, are more
memorable examples—and yet no right minded
man will say, that the State is not hound to com
ply with her own engegbfnents, however Improvi
dently they may havebeenconiractpd; Any other;
course must lead to dishonor. .The trueremedy
is lb withhold the grant—to deny in (be first In*
stance the franchise. A failure to do that has been
the root oi|*all .the evil, Lhl the people apply the
proper correction themselves. So far. as 1 may
have the opportunity, no bank shall be chartered
by ray vole.
But, sir, I have said that in relation to ihe par
ticular controversy, between the Stale and the
Bank of Pennsylvania, I may he mistaken. And
as your neighbor of the Herald does not appear
satisfied with my oourse on this; subject, and as
you, through the columns of your last paper, alto
decidedly disapproved of It, 1 eland and
am bound to believe that the joint expression of
your views, the meeting of extremes, reflects the
sentiments of (ho people of the county, which 1
have the honor in part to represent. 1 shall feel
myself bound to carry into effect their wishes—
Should this question coma back, therefore, from
the Senate, 1 shall feel it my duty not only to veto
against my own proposition, but any other which
may be offered in its stead, tending to favor tho
view 1 have taken of this Important question. 1
believe most implinltly In the doctrine that the re
presentative is bound to obey the will of those
whom he represents* except in matters conflicting
as he believes with Ills oath of office—and ns I ex
fieol to be held accountable for all “the deeds done
n Ibc-borty,” in my representative and official; oa»
piolty, 1 bow most fiipiotfolly to th« mandate Is
fluid, surrender my own crudo notions on this tub-

of my constituents.

Gen. Scott’s Nomination in Pennsylvania.—The
nomination of Gen, Send, and the.nppointmcnt of
Gov. Johnston to (ho National Contention, by tho
Whig Convention of Penney I vani-i t are not received
with much favor at the South. The Petersburg In.
tellipfnctr t u loading whig paper of Virginia,says:
When wo romcinbor tho course pursued by this
man, Johnston, when Governor of Pennsylvania, in
regard to the'Fugitive Si tvo Law, wo, of the South,
cannot help looking with suspicion, if not absolute
distrust, on any cause with which ho and his eoad.
jutors are connected. , It is very true that Gon.
Scott.is not responsible for the action of Pennsyl.
vanla, with rcspoclle her. delegation to tho National
Convention, but If hi* o-iuso in that Convention is to
bo advocated by .tuch. champions as Johnston do Co.,
llio effect upon tho slaveholding States cannot be
doubted.” ' '
The ItUelligenetr thinks (hero Is but one way for
Gen. Scott to avoid the suspicion that he is to bo the
nominee of Johnston, Seward, and other freesoilera,
and that is to oomo out with r full,'explicit and
clear definition of his position in regard to (he com*
promise. If he fills to do this, it «ays, so far from
carrying a single Southern Stale, he will not carry a
single county, aye.or a single precinct in tho South.
He will, it adds, be beaten .at.the Court House of Ills
own native county, In. Petersburg.
(Hj" Tho fugitive slave law.whlch lately passed
llio California Assembly, provides that slaves brought
into tho State prior to tho adoption of tho Slate con*
slitulion, shall be liable to the provisions of the Con.
grcssional fugitive slave law. This, it is alleged, is
an infraction of the constitution, which says that
neither'slavery nor involuntary servitude, except for
crime, shall ever bo tolerated m the State.
