For the banks themselves your committeeneither feel,

Mr. Don moved to prlitt 3,400 ortra copies of the re
port.
Mr. JoHNS inquired the necessity for such a motion.
The report would be printed in the omelet paper of the
Legislature, and laid upon every member's desk, and be
could only see in the gentleman's motion 'a desire to
swell the expense's of the session. Besides, the cub
stance of the report had been embodied lathe veri ous bills
and reports submitted, and in the high-wrought state

the House, It seemrd to be their It eslre to raise another

The House then resigned the pqnsideration pf Senate
bill providing for the resumption of Speelo payments
by the banks, and for the relief of debtors; the ques

Mr. MeOstadowr meted to go Into Committee of the
Whole, for the purpose of striking out the following
clause In the third section.
" But any bank or banks which shall, before the
period boreinbefore limited, resume and continue the
payment of 'peals on all their liabilities, shall not
after such resumption, and during such contibnance,
be subject.to may of the provisions of this section."
Me said that every one of the banks which resumed
sPeele paylnent only twenty-four hours before the time
limited for the operating of the act, world be relieved
from every ono of the penalties contained in the third
section. Ile considered the section the best In the bill,
and he did not wish to see it emasculated.
Mr. LONG/ERR was willing that the amendment
should be made, bnt he hoped they would not again go
Into committee for the purpose of tinkering at the bill,
Until its defeat was Inevitable.
Mr. MOOBlllO.O moved to amend the motion by In
serting "general" Instead of " special," so that the

The House reutembled at three o'clock.
The comideration of Senate bill was resumed; the
question being on its third reading.
Mr. BALL moved that the House resolve itself into a
Committee of the Whole, for the purpose of aubetituting
the following for the first section of the bill;
Berries 1. That so much of the act of the 18th of
April, 1860, entitled an Act regulating Bioko, as de
dares or Authorizes the forfeiture of „the charter of any
hank, or which indicts any penalties or anti:axiom; any
compulsory assignment for or by reeson of the non-pay
ment of any of its liabilities , ar the issuing or paying
out tbe notes of other banks Incorporated Muter the
laws of this Commonwealth Monet not elude paying,
or its -loaning or discounting, without the requisite
amount of specie. or specie funds be, andthe Caine is
hereby, suspended until the third Monday of deanery,
1850, or until the further action of the General Aa
sembly, and the eighteenth and nineteenth articles of
the third section of an act to re-charter certain
banks, puled March 26th, 1824, be, and same are
hereby re-enacted and declared to be in full force
and effeet, in regard to the several banks of this
Commonwealth, until the said third Monday of Jenn•
cry, 1869, or until otherwise provided by late; and all
penalties or liabilities heretofore incurred under
maid act of 1860, for or by reason of the causes aforesaid,
are hereby remitted, and so much of any set is prohibits
said banks front declaring dividends during a *upon-
Man of specie payments, and from loaning or discounting
without the requisite amount of specie or epees hind-,
be, and the same is hereby, suspended u aforesaid ; and
any such bank, during a suspension of specie payments,
may declare dividends to an amount not exceeding six
per cent. per annum on its capital. And thie set shall
extend also to all banks, laving, trust, and Insurance
companies, and corporations with banking privileges,
chartered or rechartered, under any law, forperloda here•
after to commence, and to the payment of stook to all
banks iocorporated by the Legieleture at its last ;maim'.
lie laid his substitute, after remitting the penalties
to a day fixed, or taking the alternative to such time as
the next Assembly might see proper, re-enacted the
machinery of the act of 1824 which enactment was
well understood ' by the banking institutions, by the
legal mind of the country, and oleo by the busineas
community, it hullo received a Judicial interpretation,
and its effect and working baying been found 10 be meet
salutary and wholesome. The first seetion ,of the bill,
which legalized suspension until April, 1858, did not OX
tend it sufficiently, and If relief woe to be granted, time
intent be given the mercantile and manufacturing men of
the State to gather up their resources from every portion,
of the country to which they had Rent their goods lathe
regular course of trade.
Mr. FOSTER was apprehensive butniln Ingenuity
would not be adequate to devise a system for the security
of people' in bank. issues, If_ the expeeiment tried Under
the act of 18811 had failed. Hp to the present time that
act had been beneficial in its provisions, and no man
could say that the difficulties under which we were DOW
la ring hadbeen , caused by any defect in that act.
m
Frowhence ,
did the difficulty arise, then? Only from
the violation of the provisions of that lew, and of higher
hors, which if any commercial or todonfacturing country
dare attempt to invade or violate; rule and disaster would
inevitably,follow.l There bad been in this country, for
year after year gone by, a degree of extravagance
in trade and speculation which would bankrupt any

Assuredly. they hid; but what had produced it? It
wee trading end speculating to an extent which bed
alanneacapitalletil at the' ability of those engaged In it
to pay the liabilities they incurred. He was afraid
that the banks could not afford to extend their
disocnnts further than they bed, with security to
the people themselves. If they could,' be. win
wii
lingg to give them the time, provided the holders of
their paper end depositore could be „secured, The bill
utuMr Wraliderationproposed te; give the banks 'up - to
April, 1888, to resumespecie psyrnerite, - and their char
tara.ng,to that time.were secured to them. but if, they
re-enacted the act of 1824, which the gentleman pro
posed, they allowed demands to be made upon the banks,
end if they were not paid within three months, it was
es much then in the powet of the holders of the notes
to cause the forfeitures of the charters as it wee for
the holden of the notes to forfeit the charters to
day. If he understood the bill before the House, it
gave the banks until the second Monday of April, and
three months from the time they refused to redeem in
gold and sliver after that; and he thought it was much
better for the banks than the act of 1824, which autho
rhea the forfeiture of their chartere three months after
their inroad to redeem. In one case Mx months was
given and In the other three.
Mr. Bud. defended his proposition in a long speech,
insisting thi(t It was the beet that could be devised to

GENERAL lIARKEH . AT NATIONAL It&LL.
The annelltneintint`thiti"Hen. 'Wm• P. Packer
would address' tile cillaenli of Philadelphia, drew
together last eiventng:ti z t National Hall, the largest
audience that' thersarapkign bei.larilnesSed. The
hall was densely crowded, both floor and platform.
Not only the benches, but the aisles, from the front .
of the hall to the back, were tilled with eager lis
teners.
During. itia powerful address of two hours, we do
not believe that a single person lett the hall. In
the small space which our crowded columns allow
119, wo can hike to present only onseagre sketch of
what woe tai l who heard it a most eloquent and
convincing effort.
At about, Tarter of eight, Gen. Packer made
his appearancentilleptrarme 'and all he was eon
ducted to titiplatfopso,,thoor lifter cheer rose up
from thousands of voices. ' ,
Without the usual formulary of a Jist of officers
and resolutions, Mr. William English organised
the meeting by nominating as Chairman Mr. Peter
Logan. Mi. Logan was unanimously chosen, and,
with a few oemplimentary words, he introduced
the orator of the evening.
Gen. Packer,
at the opening of his speech, made
some allusiotts to our city, reigning to her import
ance in deciding those issues which at times agi
tate the Btate, and particularly alluding to her
vote in October and November last. And why
should not Philadelphia give an overwhelming
majority against the sectional and proscriptive par
ties that now oppt.so the Democracy ? Republicans
would reply that , the Democratic party and the
old-line Whig pierty pad beeomeajavery propagan
dists, and do notissoupy n the petition occupied by
the fathers.of the Republic-Washington, Jeffer
son, Jackson, and othea great men that have passed
away. The speaker' mposed to examine the
truth of that charge. f R wits true, then the De
mocrats of the present day were for going further
than those pstrmts of earlier doge. lie proposed
to show that such was not the truth.

of the sieve ltAteo in. engross. So that the Southern
States had more o'otea in Conceal; in proportion to
their while pepulation, than the Northern States. Such
was the provision ,of the Constitution, Yet, if propo
sition of that kind were aubmitted for approval to a Re
publican meeting, how many would be found to agree
,to it' They would repudiate and condemn it. Yet
our father* ateltind,fathers placed that provision in
the Constitution,
The next p4vlsion In the Constitution, ho relation to
this subject, wait that providing for the rendition of fu
gitive alarm. To the Constitution containing that pro
vision, the Bret name is that of (lemeral Waahington;
and among the subsequent names are those of lienjamin
Franklin and 'other distinguished men from Pennsyl
vania. The Agars of that ibstrument were covered
with the blood and smoke of the Revolution, and they
knew the value of the Union. (Applause.) Yet,
if such a provision were sulainitted to a Republican
meeting, would- the) , approve it ? No: • They would
answer by WOW, -Thelr leaders bare deelered that
rather than execute the laws for carrying that provision
Into effect, they would "let the Thelon elide."
In another pert of the Constitution, It was provided
that the slairetrado—pot es It exists now between the
States, but the'African slave trade, by the operation of
which negrOeie r*l" Warn' on theishores of Africa,
shipped to thipoountry In chains, end condemned to
perpetual servitude—tiro African slave trade should not
be disturbed by 00dgreas for twenty•one yam—until

In view Of these provision,' theispeaker naked his

for going fiirther than the patriots of Revolutionary
days.Whith,were for faithfully carrying out the Con
'Matfett—the Republicans or the Democracy
Bat the Ordinance ofl7Bl had been inferred to by the
opposition,tieedeacethetrt thotlolofthe adoption
of the
pub
lic
men to abolish slavery, because that ordinance con
tained a provision similar to the Wilmot Proviso—a
provision 'prohibiting the introduotion of slavery Into
all that portios of the northwestern territory lying north
of the Ohio river. Ho would examine that point. At that
thus referred to, a clamor we,, raised In regard to the die
position of the territory belonging to the United States.
All the States Claimed au Interest in this uncultivated
territory In the West and South. The dielculty was
compromised by the sections of the Constitution to,
which referent° had been made, and by acts of Congress
to which ho should allude. That ordinance was adopted
un the lath of July, 11'87. About tho same time South.
Carolina ceded to the United States the territory out of
which with 0. subsequent cession from the Stale of.
Georgia, Miseiurl and Alabama have been made. The
Congress of e United States, at that time eittiog in
New York, an which contained many of the same men
rho had frowned the Constitution, (Madison and Iftunit•
ton among otliers,) pureed, on the lath of August of the
same year, adordinance aceePting the Ceilehrtl made by
South Carolina, and procidrag that the territory should
remain slave territory forever. This wee the act of tho
same men whir had mused the ordinance of 1767. It was
true that many of thcme men were in favor of abolishing
slavery, but only with the consent of the Southern
States—never in the way In 'which It Is attempted now.
In 1790, thtfirst CougressAhat mat 'after the &dim.
Non of the Obristittitien, accepted from North Caroline
the cession of territory .out, of which Tennessee has
since been mete, and theyprovided that that territory
should be and remain slate territory. A similar pro.
visionless afthrwarda toade ; when the State of Kentucky
was formed, 11ulmegueutly, the Eltetei UNdi/a" wee
admitted with*: elePEstMutditution.

compromiser si!tacet Num : ...The Ohio Ilyer was the line;

provision of e Otorstlrntiem was to be the terms upon
which slaver ,teds to exist • •
When the principle of popular sovereignty was es.
tablished ; wlmn• the bill tot organising Kansas and
Nebraska 4nii up, in 1864, that principle was embodied
In the bill. This principle Gellefel Packer vindicated
with much elrquenco. It was this right of the people
to govern ttemeelvee for, which oar fathers taught
in 1778.- George the Third tried to enforce
orlon the Colonies the doctrine which the Black
Republicans how wish to enforce upon the ter
ritories—the right to legislate for them without regard
to their feeling. and Interests. The same battle fought
by George the Third In 1770, was fought by the 'lte-.
Publicanain 1856. In the first struggle, King George
ost thirteen colonies; in the last, the Republicans
loot thirty-ono. (Laughter and applause.)
The speaker made some allusions to the conduct of
the emigrant aid societies, and the election frauds said
to have been perpetrated in Kansas. In speaking of
the latter subject, he made some amusing allusions to
the Buckshot War,
On the admission of Missouri in 1820, the Missouri
Compromise Line, the line of 38 deg. 80 min., was adopt
ed, making the second great compromise. In 1845 that
line wan extended through the Territory of Texas, from
the Sabine to the Rio del Norte. It wan extended as far
as we have had any territory. It was considered a
finality, a definite settlement of the slavery question
Mr. PACKER then referred to the several efforta . by
Me Wilmot for the adoption of his Proviso, he preening
that proviso upon the bill making appropriations for
our army isi . Mealcowhlcli appropriations should have
been voted with the least delay--and postponed by the
agitation of such a subject as thin The epeaker con
tinued to' trace at length the action of the Government
on the 'subjett of slavery, showing how the Republicans
who had lately clamored no loudly in regard to the Mis
souri compromise IMO, had failed on numerous occasions
to sapped that 1140, but, on the contrary, had constantly
opposed it. He then referred to the compromise measures
of 1860.
He rebuked, in thrilling language, the conduct of
Massachusetts in passing her Personal Liberty bill.
The " highet-law" doctrine was tellingly exposed.'
' After it few other inmarks in regard to national sub
jects, the speaker took up the questions of more imme
diate Interest in the State election. In regard to the
State debt, nothing should be done that would tend to
Increase It, unless much expenditure should be neces
sary to suppress insurrection and rebellion.'
In regard to the question of currency, said General
Packer, what heart is there that ban not been pained
with the present excitement upon that question? The
subject is now before the Legislature of Pennsylvania,
and I trust it will be disposed of before the Legislature
shall rise. Some action ought to be taken by them upon
this question. What that action should be, it is not for
me to say. Upon the Happening of a certain contin
gency, I may be called - upon to act in relation to this
very crisis, 'and the relief which is demanded by It.
(Great applause.) If I should be (a voice—"you will
be") called upon to act officially in regard to it, you
may rest assured of this, that I sympathize moat
deeply with every class of the community that has suf
fered—your business men as well as your laborers.
Applause.) Whatever can be done to alleviate the
present troublea, to return public confidence, to bring
back the 'date of things that existed some months ago,
shall meet my most cordial approval. (Cheers.)
'This crisis was most unexpected; I have witneased
nothing like It within forty years . ; it took the whole
nation by surprise. No man, however great his fore
cast, could have foresems the present state of affairs.
Then who can sof hog the question will stand three
mouths henqe?hence I must decline advancing any
opinion as to whir, will be but at that time, giving you,
however, this assurance—that whatever shall beat pro
mote the luterests of all Mamma, that course shall be
pureued by me. (Cheers.)
I have observed by the papers that some of the candi
dates have thought necessary to bring Into discussion
the Tariff question. In my remarks throughout the State,
I have not referred to that subject , because I did not
suppose that It laid anything to do with the Issues
now before the people of Vennsylvasiia This much I
can say: that I hub no retail in relation to the tariff of
1840 to ex lain, 5 was with that portion of the people
of Peousylvanie that (stored the tariff of 1842. Thin
Stet. wee abroad a unit upon thatqueetion. Both houses
of the Legislature, by an almost unanimous vote, in
structed our delegation in Congress to vote in favor of
the tariff of 1842; and I rejoice that I have no vote in
that Congress to explain before the people
Upon Know-Nothingism the speaker made a few re
writhe. How unjust and inconsistent with the first prin
ciples of our Government were those distinction of birth
and religion upon which the so-called Amercianiam is
based! Ile alluded to the Revolutionary history of
Charles Chrroll of Carrollton—the Andoobted talents,
integrity, and patriotism of Renee B. Taney—both Cath
olics. Allusion VA msle to the noble deeds of Catho
lics, acting in 4nsert with Protestants in the Mexican
war, two companies of the former from Cambria county
being the Suit that offered themselves in Pennaylvtusia.
Ia conclusion, Gen. Packer acid :
The two meat parties that exlated in this country a
few years ago united neon curved principles. They
took the Coustitotien for their guide, and the Union
was their sheet-anchor. (Cheers.) The 'Democratic
party has now rallied into its ranks the great and good
men of the 1014-lbse Whig party' Without them we
could net hale succeeded. We cheerfully give them
credit for thou aid. They were for the Union—for all
the States of the Union.
The Demoerstie party, and the old-line Whig party,
an now united, carry no Sag whose stars represent
half of the States. They stand up for they Union as It
Is, and the Constitution. They are in favor of
" A union of lakes, a union of lands,
A dnion of States none may sever-,
A union of heats, and a unfelt of hand*,
And the Sag of our roAotk forever."
The speaker closed his triumphant effort amid gene
ral applause; and the meeting adjourned, with repented
cheer& fee taelger and the whale Democratic ticket.
