During the Past wall, we have receive('
letters fret - O . different-parts -of the state, ell
..of them evincing the fullest confidence in
'the ability of the Whigs to 'elect their can

never, brighter than at this moment; our
friends, throughout the state are actively en

The Fiscal Bank Bill.
The, bill to incorporate the Fiscal:Bank
taf the United States, has at
. length passed
the Senate. On the main question, of the
establishment of a Fiscal Bank, theie was
%no ditTeretice of 'opinion among dig - Whig
; but,' they disagreed as, to, the
}power of Congress to establish branches in
the States, without - Oa assent of such
States. .>
' The bill &rafted bYMr. Ewing contained
the following section, which was afterward
offered as aan amendment to Mr. Clay's
bill by Mr. Rives
:• That the said corporation'shall estab
lish aompetent office of discount and de
-- posit in-any state, by the , assent of the.Le
islature such„atate, wh'enever the direc
, tars niity thinlf:d so to‘do'; and,When es
tablished, the office Shall not be yithdrawn
•
without the went of,Congress ; and the
said corporation _ shall have_power to porn:.
'management Of, the said office and
the businese thereof, respectively, to such
• pi - and under such regulr
~ a rsons, and under such regulations, as
they', shall deem, proper, 'not heing contrary
toilakv or constitution, of the:'bank;>or, in.
stead of establishing Such offices, it AA

be lawful for the directors" of the said cor
poration, from time to time, to employ any
Alividual, agent, or any other bank or
banks, to be approved by the,Sectetary of
the-Treasury, at any place or places - that
they may deeth safe and proper, to manage
and transact the business proposed as afore-.
said, other than for the purpose of discount',
anti to perform the duties hereinafter re
quired of said corpor'tion, to be managed
and transacted by such , officers under such
agreements and subject to such regula
tions, as-they shall deemjust and proper."
Fears were entertained, that if this point
was not conceded; the votes of some jour
or five of the Whigs would be lost and the
bill finally defeated. A. compromise was
therefore effected, and an amendment offer
ed by Mr. . Clay, , which, while it concedes
the principle, that the assent of the states
is necessary to the establiihment of branch
es, it allows the assent , to be inferred from
the silence, or otnission of the states. to_act.
The ammendment is as follows :
, ‘-‘ And the said directors May also 'estab

.of' dis
diseount and deposit in any territory 'or
district of the United States, and in: any
State, with• 'the assent' of such state ; and

Correspondence of the herald El Expositor
WASHINGTON, 30th• July, 1841.
Since : my last, two. very iruportant mea
sures have been carried in the Senate. The
first is the Bankrupt Bill which passed
finally on Saturday the 24th instant, 20
aye's 'to 23 nays. '22 whigs, together tti‘ith
'4 of the opposition, voted in the affirma
tive; •18 locofocos and '5 whigs in the ne
gative—:2 senators, -- whigs; absent.: The
passage of this bill will give great. s'atisfac . -
tion, especially in the large: commercial
,cities,-where-are-to be found thousands - of
honest men, who now. Bye in total idleness,
their-hands,-as - it - were -- tied up; but'who,
by: the enactment 'of the bankrupt bill. will
be l eitabled to start , ufresh in bUsiness.
But the other- measure, which will be
looked Upon by .you as of far 'greater im
portance, is The bill 'creating the " Fiscal
Bank,of.the United States." This chief
measure of the extra session passed-finally
in the Senate on Wednesday 28th instant,
by 26 - ayes to 23 nays, a strictly party
vote, with . the excnritiOn of ,Aycher and
Riveit of Virginia, whigs, who iotnd in the
negative. Clayton of PelaWare, whig, and
Cuthbert of Georgia,locofocoi were absent.
This bill has' been under discussion for
-4" -
more thnna;month, and until within a day
Or two before the final vote. was taken,
great fears were entertained by its friends,
that it could not pass. Several of the
Southern. Senators, who were favorable to
a bank,
.objected to the power, given to
Congress by the bill as reported by Mr.
Cray, of placingwith
out
. branches in the states
their consent: On the ether 'hand, a
large majority of its friends contended that'
Congress possessed the right to establish
branches, _whenever. it_judged them neces
sary, •and should exercise that right. The
opposition perceived this ditrerence of opi
nion,among the whigs, and rejoiced at 'it',
openly giving utterance to their hopes that
nothing could be done at the extra sessioe4
and in their letters .to "their friends -confi

that this course will Alefeat the bill, will
cast his vote .against it, disregarding the
solemn instructions 'passed almbst unani
mously in the Pennsylvania legislature last
winter, as well as the wishes of seven-

GOVERNOR PORTER,

In the last address of the locofoco. State

and 'desperate effort to :prop itie sinking
popularity of Governor Porter-; a'nd like
most of the numbers which : haie preceded
it, fairly' proves that his acts Will not bear
the test of close examination. When re-.
sort must be had to precedent alone, to jus
tify an act, it-is fair to - Conclude; that it
cannot be done on any other ground. That
Governor Porter has made .a free use of the

The Erie- Extension.
Upon no 'portion of the public works
have greater pectilations. and mismanage

brought to light by the Investigating Com
mittee, than upon the Conneaut•line of the
Erie Extension. In a matter of four con
tracts, which we will present nt -this- time,.
it Will be 'seen; that by the connivance of
the canal commissioners, the state has been
swindled but of the round sum of TWEN
TY SEVEN, THOUSAND DOLLARS
for the purpose of rewarding those who
have done the party' service. If this is
not sufficient to arouse all honest men to
the necessity of a little exertion to hurl',
from office and power the present•Execti

know not what will.

sible contractor, and was willing to take
the Yob at that price, as he has

The PrincipLe of Purgation.—The great princi
ple of purgilig Mtsickness is now one of our leading
principles of the day. It is found much more con
convenient to take an occasional dose of thoCelebrii=
ted Brandreth Vegetable Univerial Pills and be al
ways well, than to send for a Doctor 'awl be bled,
blistered, and salivated—with' the - certainly that if
-you-nre-not-killed,_ybv_will be sUre-tmhave-mouths-:
of miserable wokness, and the only one who is ben
efitted is your Doctor.
The Ilrandreth Vegetahleyniversal Pills require
no skill_in Wei).- administration ; the-printed-three
,ion only has tahe observed, and it destribes thejust
proportion (tithe dose to the magnitude of the dis
ease to be cured:.
They may be taken at ally time the body requires
medicine, either before or alter minds, when out.or
at home; without any inconvenience being experien
, eed. Anti a certainty that no malignant disease can
injure while they are used. Thus establishing 'the
fact that we are only to use those remedies which
purify the blond, to be free from till diseases, it be
ing now a Well known fact, that every disease, whe
ther it be in the head or feet, in the brain or meanest
member, Whether it be an outward ulcer or an in
ward abscess; are all, though arising from Many
causes, reducible to one grand effect, namely, impu
rity of blood.

NEW WEEKLY PAPER?.
A new weekly paper will be issued in this borough,
early‘in August, under my superintendence.
Its political position will be defined in the fit*
number publisliCd. In the mean time it may. 6c,
well.enough to state that it will be entirely inde
pendent ot-the.conteol of all old party leaders; un
trammeled by any connection with their interests.
and lice to take any course in raation to men and
meisures now before the public or thatmay hereafter'
be brought forward, which the real interests of the
people may seem to require..
In a literary point of view, I intend that the ne , ie .
paper shall lose nothing by comparison with its elder
brethren. It shall always contain whatevergenerd
and local news is current. The market pike*
Strerrs 'sales, trial and jury lists shall be correctly
and regularly published.
'Tams.---The price of the paper will be TWO
DOLLARS per year, one 7 halt.payable in advance.
Subscriptions at the same ente will be taken for three
or Six, months, in either case payable in advance:
