is.* ciuranoti sense production: perfectly just.
in all it. cnnclusiotis : and in entire consistency with
his
tie,,E, often •elpresscd, on the subject of bank-
- .
That the sentiments of Governor Shunk on this
mildectaie just, no one, conversant with the history
of banking in our country, can for a moment doubt.
They are based upon a correct knowledge of those
doctrines in political economy, which every' honest
Statesmap and patriot will at all times thoroughly
esairiee and understand: and without attention to
which, vemust ever be liable to the most ilisagreca
bleAlri veitathins fluctuations is monetary affairs.

tli . 4;iiielans for overcoming them would at once be
neterally suggested. We believe that the whole
cause:of „the greatest difficulties that have been en
ertanteeed by the' Peopleef Pennsylvania, are trace
able, either 'directly - or indirectly, to the' banking
. system as now authorized. The especial advocates

YET° t,F THE -BILL l'it , -ItE•CHARTER• - THE
BANK OF CUAMBERSBURG:
To the Senate and House of Representatives : Gen
tlemen: The bill entitled s'Ais att.to extend the
Charter of the: Bank. of.:liatithersburg," has been
presented for my approval.
The Charter ef,thislank will expire by its own
limitation, on the first Wednesday or May, ISW,
and the present bill propoaes.to extend it for a thr
ther period or ten years Irmo that date. The bills
-to extend the chaffers of the Farmer's and Bros er's
Sank - or Way tietibu rg, the Columbia Bank and Bridge
Company, and the Farmers' and Mechanics' Bank of
Philadelphia; are also before me: The charters of
. these Institutions will , expire by their limitations in
May and November, .18:19, and it is proposed to ex
tend the charter of each of them for ten years front
the tints of their expiration.
The impOrtance ur responsibility of giving or with
holding my Adhesion to the reeowal of the charters
of these institutions, as well as others of a similar
character which may be presented during the pres
ent session, has induced me to bestow - upon the sub
ject my most serious cosideration. • c
The great injuries which have been inflicted upon
the whole people, but more. especially up - on.those'
who are entirely, dependent upon their daily wages
for the subsistence and comfits% of themselsiit and
families, by the failure of Banks and the depreciation
of Bank paper, demand at the hands of those en
trusted with the power of legislation on the subject,
the utmost eaution and deliberation before they ex
tend a system. which has, in so many instances,
proved itself vicious and deceptive,and ruinous to the
laboring and producing portions at' the people.
In tic annual message , presented to the General
Assembly at the commencement of the present ses
sion, I took the occasion to present the following
views on the sue ject
'" Nothing can contribute so much to the maiete
nanee of our present prosperity, as a sound curren
cy. Pennsylvania is rch in productions of almost
every description requited by the wants of mankind;
and nothing is necessary to make her people the
most independent in the wi.rld, but a proper regard
for her true interests. To advance there, she must
not be seduced front her Cevotion to sound princi
ples, by the artificial contrivances of false econo
mists, whose selfish theories are as delusive, as they
are destructive to the public good.
"The present is a most propitious period, when
there is an abuudance, or gold and silver in the
country; to make a determined effort to increase its
circulation, and secure to the people the currency
which the wisdom of the framers or the constitution
of the United States provided. Instead of creating
new hanks, or increasing the capital of old ones,
our efforts should be directed to secure the solvency
of those which already exist, and thereby render
their circulation sound and reliable.
" Impressed with the force of these considera
tions, I am convinced that the increase of the bank
ing capital of the State, would be unwise and impoli
tic; and I respectfully recommend, that before any
one of the existing banks is rechartered. a searching
scrutiny -be instituted- into its affairs, its manage
ment, its credit, and its means •, and if it be round
that the notes have been suffered to depreciate, that
the accommodations bare been bestowed upon fa
vorites, and large speculators and dealers in money,
instead of being diffused among moderate and safe
customers ; that the. issues have at one period en
couraged speculations by their excess, and at an
other oppressed honest industry, by their contraction,
in short, that the legitimate objects for which the
privileges were granted:, hate not been by fair,Taith
fol and judicioes management accomplished, then
the charter should be suffered to expire by its own
limitation. The discontinuanceof such institutions
will promote the public good, and will be hailed
with approbation by all but those who have, for pri
vate gain, wrested them from thispurpose for which
they were established.
" This policy, so just towards the public, while it
may, to s moderate extent, diminish the present
amount of banking capital, will sticngthen public
confidence in the other banks, and add to the sta
bility and soundness of the currency. And as it may
also increase the profits of existing banks, beyond a
just compensation to the shareholders for their in
vestments and as this excess of gain is derived from
the special privileges conferred upon them by the
Legislature, I recommend that the tax imposed by
the act of the Ist Aptil, 1835, upon dividends ex
ceeding six per cent- per annum, be increased.—
While the inducement to excessive nking will be
reasonably cheekedshy the increase ba of this tax, the
finances of.the §tate may be, to some extent, lot
proved, and the public welfare promoted.
" The policy indicated will lead to the rigid exe
cution of the law prohibiting the circulation of or
cage notes under the denomination afire dollars,as
soon at; the balance oT the relief Issues is cancelled:
This will be a positive advance in the . improvement
of the currency, which should be then followed by
a law prohibiting the circulation of all notes, below
the denomination of ten dollars. The channels of
circulation will then be filled with an abundance of
gold and silver, the public secured against the chan
ces of loss by broken banks, and depreciated cur
rency; and the nay will be opened to such further
improvements, as the real intervals and convenience
of the people may demand.
" The cautionary enactments 1. - have suggested,
cannot fail to increase, rather th . an'climinish the
amount of a sound circulatiug medium, fully entitled
to the public confidence.. The effect will be to bring
the . specie - of the country into active circulation, to
furnish the people with a substantial currency, that
cannot be impaired by bank failures, and to restrain
the tendency of the banks to foster extravagance, in
time of prosperity, and check tho means of oppres
sion in times of adversity. -•.--
" A theory has been advocated and put into prac
tice, in some of the called FREE BANKING.
It is base .I,,in part, upon specie, and in part upon
State stocks, hspethecahed with-the Government.
In other words, banks beeome •the cis titters of the
Commonwealth, by purchasing her bonds • these are
deposited with the government, and the govern
ment endorses, and returns to the brokers, notes
prepared for circulation, to an equal amount. I can
perceive no groundi for eonfidence in this system.
It must explode, in a country where it it adopted
to any considerable extent, whenever a revulsion
occurs to test its 'stability: for. it is a deviation from
true . principles. Settled and safe banking can only.
be based and conducted on money—onto and sit.-
vta. Neither individuals or banks can lend that
whith they have not; and if they creditin the
shape, of bank, notes, without the means to redeem
them in gold and silver, they commit a fraud upon
the community, as they lend and put in circulation,
that which is not money, nor the representative of
money.
" If this system of converting State stock • into
banking capital, and
, hypothecating it as a security
for the payment of batik laws, were not a delusion,
mortgages upon real estate, might be used for the
same purpose, which - would
. afford On equal if not
a better security, for.the paYthent of a note, and by
this process , the• Whole value of 'the real estate of
the country, might be converted into banking capi
tal, and the people into ' - eriaticin of hankers. This
proposition' shows, that the whole scheme is iliusory
and unsound.

r - 'lll. regard to the bill immediately before me; ii
well` as the others referred *so far all am inform-
ed, no such investigation has taken place,xfor
'deed any other beyold-the eximination.Of their-
Auarteily statements and the repreisistitallonief tliose
immediately inter cited. -These. statements, -it is
well known, furnish little information that can be
relied on as satisfactory in regard to the solvency of
the institutions. It is only by a rigid inquiry into
the character of the notes and bills discounted, and
of all the assets that any valuable and practicable re
sult can be attained.
In withholdinvny approbation from the bill under
consideration, as well ns the others to which I have
referred, I do not mean to intimate the most remote
suspicion in regard to their solvency or management.
So far ail know, they are as sound as any other
Banks in the State, and may have been as well con
ducted. Indeed, some of them sustain as fair a
reputation as any in the State, but the time has ar
rived when the public interests demand that no Bask
should he re-chartered without the most thorough
scrutiny into its condition and management, and it
was only on condi ion of such an investigation being
first had that I expressed a willingness to give my
assert to the re charter of any bank.
In creating or renewing institutions which are to
furnish the circulating medium of the State, and
which every man in business is compelled, from the
habits and tedious of the country, to receive as mo
ney, nothingehould be taken for granted, or left in
doubt, which is susceptible of satisfactory proof.- -
By pursuing the course indicated, dew institutions
which are unsound will be-detected and exposed,
and the community may be protected against fraud
and imposition, while those that are tweed and hon
estly 'conducted will receive the confidence they
merit.. As none of the charters of the institutions
which ,are . now before me fur a renewal of their
privileges will expire before the first of May, 1849,1
cannot perceive that they will suffer any material
detriment, or that the public interests can be jeopard
ed bfthe postponement of their applications for an
other year:
I am the more persuaded that this is the true course,
from the fact that l am fully satisfied there are yet
tnany valuable provisions which ought_ to be en
grafted upon every. Bank charter in the'State, in or
der to protect the interests of bona fide stockholders,
and to save the people from a recurrence of the evils
which have heretofore resulted from the defects of
the present system. Much has already been done.
The principal of individual liability which was for
a long time pertinaciously resisted as destructive of
the whole system has been established, and is now
received with favor not only by the whole people at
large, but by mane of the most enlightened bankers
in the country. It is true the application of the
principal may not yet be perfect, but that its intro
duction, even in its modified form, will have a salu
tary influence by producing more- caution and care
on the part of stockholders in regard to the manage
ment of the flanks, as well as by affording a better
ultimate security to their creditors, will not be de
nied. !laving attained this point, it is our duty to
progress with the advance of enlightened public
opinion, and to provide such other reasonable and
wholesome restrictions as the public interests re
quire, and as the public interest demands.
Among the further restrictions which have occur
ed to me as practicable and proper, are the fol
lowing:
lat. One restricting the amount of issues to a less
proportion to their Capital. They are now general
ly authorized to issue three times the amount of their
capital. This is too much, and ought to he reduced
It is the main cause .of those fatal expansions and
contractions which have heretofore proved so de
structive to the hest interests of the country. The
amount of debts they arc permitted to contract
ought also. to be reduced, so as to restrain their
operations at all times within reasonable and safe
limits.
2d. The Banks of the State ought all to be re
qnired to keep their notes at par in the city of Phil
adelphia. it is the products of the country which
are sent to the Eastern marketer, that form the legit
imate
basis of Bank discounts in the country, and as
the country Banks have the benefit of the country
circulation, and the advantage cf discounting the
bills and drafts on the Eastern cities, where they re
ceived par funds in payment, it is asking but a email
return fur thefavors conferred upon them, that they
shook keep their notes at par. This would put an
end to a system of brokerage and speculation which
indirectly robs the people of the interior, of many
I thousands of dollars annually.
ad. Banks ought. to be treated as public instita- '
tions, because they furnish the currency of the State,
and affect the pecuniary interests of the people more
than any other institutions in the country. The Di
rectors ought to be placed under oath, and sworn to
observe the provisions of the charter, and any wilful
violation of them ought to be made perjury. The
whole proceedings of the banks should at all times
be open to the inspection of any reasonable number
of the stockholders, and to a committee of the Le
gislature, and to any officer of the State duly autho
rized. A failure to redeedi their notes on demand
in specie ought in itself to be an absolute forfeiture
of their charter, excepting as to winding up their
concerns, and for any act done as a Bank after ouch
, failure, the fact ought to be given in evidence as a
I bar to any suit in relation to any banking operation
subsequent touch failure.
After the lapse of a few years,they ought not to
be permitted to issue paper of a enomination below
ten dollars.
These are some of the most promising provisions
which ought, in my opinion, to be engrafted4an our
banking system, and applied to every bank in the
State; and I cannot perceive any time so favorable
for their adoption as when the hanks arc asking an
1 extension of their charters.
No extreme measures towards the banks, that arc
calculated to distrust or derange the business habits
of the community, are desirable; but the people
have a right to expect from every public functionary,
'who has it in his power to contribute in any degree
to the correction of the evils of a system which has
heretofore been productive of so much mischief, his
best exertions to prevent the recurrence of those
evils.
Entertaining the views I have expressed, and the
belief that no injury can be sustained by delay, I
have come to the, concluaion' at present, to with
hold my assent to these bills:
. Dy the postpenenient,
the banks will have time to prepare and exhibit sat,
isractory proof of 'their condition and management,
which is not now before me,..und some well digest
ed amendments to the system, Calculated still far
ther to mitigate, if dot to eradicate its defects, may
be matured.
For these reasons, I have directed the bill to be
returned without my approbation, to the Senate ' in
I which it originated. FRANCIS R. SHENK.

Mr. Clay's very modest letter, nomifiating himself
for the Presidency, will be attended with one good
result, at least. It will completely Vinihilate that
&Mein of all humbugs, Taylorism, or No-Partyism.
Most of the Taylor papersawo presume, rill change
t heir colors, and consent to support Mr. Caly here
after. It is worse than folly for General Taylor to
expect the support of any considerable portion of
the American people ; especially when he will not
condescend to enlighten them as to his views in re
gard to those great..meaanres which have ever di
vided the two great political parties of the day.
The General has written too many foolish letters, to
secure the confidence and support of any class of
men ; nyd if-he possesses the least sagacity, he will
promptly decline being used any longer as the dupe
of a pack of unprincipled office-hunters. We pre
sume no sensible and candid Whig seriously sup
,poses that. Mr. Clay will be elected President; but

bUNDEILLAND I II LECtiIRI3.--08 'Monday, evening
we attended kr. fiuuderland , s Lectured, Pinto

fel language, and never utters a superfluovui word.
He is evidently a man of great education, and pow
erful intellect. In whatever sphere he moves, he
must necessarily command the respect of intelligent
people.
We will not attempt to give even an outline of
what he said. We will state what he did, and then
ask our citizens to go and see for themselves.
The audience was very large, but it was quite re
spectable. In consequence of the fears and preju
dices of those present, but four subjects were drawn
u,ion the sand. His own daughter, and his Tress
urer, were placed into the state, "and while we
were in, a very extraordinary experiment : was
performed with' them. Mr, S. called upon.gentle
men in the audience, to set their watches at any
hour they chose, and hand it to him ; and he prom
lied that they would Sell the time accurately. Ile
would not speak to them, nor touch them. Five
- watches were taken up by five different gentlemen;
they were successively handed to Mr. Sunderland,
who looked intently on their pieces, but did not
turn towards his subjects. The time was announc

that our citizens would exhibit their appreciation of

contributed to prevent a larger gathering under the

at the Pittsburgh Bar, 'shoe° fees.. are derived froM
the unfortunate victims of crime whom they find in
jail. They go into their cells, hear their story, and
then promise to "clear" them for a certain amount

this is disgraceful; degrading to humanity; and we
do say that no man should be permitted to practice
law who would descend to such schemes for making
business. We do not know any one in particular
who die. this; but we are assured that such is the
conduct of some city lawyers. We think this evil
