THE EXCHEQUER BILL. Attu VILIAORE'S REPORT The 'committee of Ways and Means, of the S. House of,Representetiveta in' recomplend ing the rejection of the E.:definer project. ) have • ... submitted a Report, in which the numerous de. • . fee% of the system are fully set forth. Tito Re. Portbriefly,considers the several modes in which it has been , thought that the' Government might • _ • discharge its con tntional duties on the subject, of finance and currency: The matter effluence •' relates To the collection, safekeeping and dr fiefrement of the p'oblie revenue; that of ettirency to creating and propM.ly ,regulating the eircula, ling ineditiin 'of 'the country, ' •" • " . _ The - Sub. Treasury, though The I:itt of ad - the modes in ;mint of 'adoption-as n system of the U; 'States is the oldest in point of time es It relates to the general subject of finance.' It 'preceded • banking-Institutions, and it rejects the current Cy which-they furnish. Its origin is contempo racy with, that of the earliest despotisin. IL .. provides for the colketion of taxes and dues to , the Government in gold, and silver, and the • •.,Treasury . relicers of the Government ore made the holders of the . ptiblie,money.. . Its. character • „.. is simply fiscal; it recognises "'no authority , rtor duty in ' the Government to furnish a currency for the use °Nile People. We might add, more over, that it tend, to destroy nll the currency' ex. cept the • metallic, when operating in conntries • 'where banks exist. ' • , The State Dank : SystAin is the second mode 'referred to. By this triode the taxes and . public • dues are collected end disborsed in speck, or the .. • bills of .specie paying banks, and between the •time •of collection end disbursment, th e .puldie „ . — moneys - are - deposited in certain selected State • banks for safe-keeping. plan . was adopted • . in 1833, both as a financial Lied a currency - meas. • . aro—professing to provide a safe place of deposit , tor the pirfille revenue, and a good currency for • thd People. It failed in,. both particulars. :The . Report ,'remarks; however, as a .singular fact,: that• this univeriiilly condemned' system tins„ hem necessity,,been mere or less used from 1533 to the present time—a most convincing. evidence that 'even State banki are - considered a safer place of deposit than the hands of individuals. 'The United States Book 'system 'is the third mode. BythiS the General GoVernment, instead of employing the banks chartered 'by the . States, • river. which it has no control, and,in which it has no interest, charters a bank with capital cient to ensure the safety of the public deposites, ,in which it is itself a.large stockholder, sharing in its profits, and then directs the taxes and pub: _ .•h e, dues to be collected in specie or the 'bills of 'this bank or other specie paying. banks, and, be tween the time of collection and disbursement, to ho deposited with this bank. 'this system • • professes not onli_to_ provide a safe'. place for keeping the public money; but also's. Booed, nni form currency for the People. For nearly forty - 'years during the fifty three since the adoption of the Constitution; this system has successfully ac •complished hoth of these objects., Until a recent period therm three modes were the only ones sogges.ted or tried ,by_the Govern. 'ment in relation f firiailec and currency; and the Comhdttee declare that they cannel well con ceive ' from these three. ' . The Report next proceeds to consider the Er •• 'chequer plan,: and quotes from the President's Message.the portion .relating to that: project.— We „. neittknot recapitulate the particulars of the plan , as they aro familiar to our readers. It is chained fur the Exchequer that it will pro , vide for the safe keeping of the public money ; that it will furnish a paper circulation equivalent to gold and silver for•the use ot, the country, and for safe and convenient payments into the 'Freese ry provide -to some extent the meats of a cheap and safe exchange - in the coin •-• -memo between the Sham It is added, also, that, -as between a Bank of the United States. and the Sub-Thasury, theExclicquer proposes to avoid the objections which exist to each,. and to 'accent- Tilsit to some extent.the good designed by both. First, as to a, plan of sate keeping 'for the public money, what aro the Merits of the Exchequer ? now does it compare with a bank of the United. - 'States. The late National Bank had a capital of $35,- <OOO,OOO. Of this, the • sum of 52'6,000,000 'be. . -longed to individ oat stoeltlMlders, and was I pledg. ed for the repayment of any money entrusted by ' , Government to its keeping. The Bank could not abscond; its directors were under the eye of the • "TiVernment. ; th - e - watelfful alteration Of mai:Trust interest was upon them; and though they might not be more than Government officers-hold ing the same trust, yet with a double set of senti . ;ids on their conduit, and n pledge of V. 8,000,0,00 as security for Government depo-ites, it is evident that a far stronger assurance of saftly would be afforded for the pUblic money than any that indi. vidual officers, would furnish. In committing the public money to the hands of its Own agents, can the Exchequer compare with a Nntienal Bank in ;respect to the safe keeping of the Government revenue.? Its agents may abscond, 'and the fist liatelligenee.of loss ipay be r accompanied by the information that (liedefhulter is beyond the reach of apprehension, and thatfkis sureties are utterly unable to cover the deficit: , The Sub-Treasury does not guard against this danger. But it proliihitedany public officer from loaning or using the public money in his posses eion,whilethe Exchequer authorises its agents to use ot loan it by 'buying drafts having thirty . days to run: If these • drafts should not he ac. . ' eepted and paid, the less may fall upon 'the Gov ernment, This may happen to au honest agent. ' Tea dishonest agent a facility thus offered is • great for defrauding the public Treasury and to a partizun agent it thrniAex easy means i.f po . Mica corruption. Again, under the Sub-Treas ury, the'Government only risked such amounts as might be iu the hands of officers between the . collection and disbursement 'of too public . MO. ney—say a few millions Mutually. But the Ex .chequer, proposes to set apart five millions in ape. ..cie as the basis of a paper 'circulation of-fifteen 'These fifteen millions of Exchequer -agents along with the five millions of specie— making in all twenty millions. Besides this, the ' 'amount of '515,000,000 more may bo received on 'deposit in gold and silver; and money to an un limited amount may be received in payment fur Arens sold. If an agent be dishonest he may issue certificates of deposit to any amount, and abocond, with the. before detection can .take place. Can a ,system like , this be safe— . , entrusting as, it dues suet' . vast sums to individual keeping, and allowing such facilities for fraud in the sale of drafts and . the issue of certificate's, for which the_pulilic-'freaotiry -would be- reopen ,- . .sible? The Committee express the belief (lint under such a system the national Treasury before ten years would he overwhelmed with banlitupt.- '' cy and ruin.- The circulating medium' which the Exchequer -proposes to tbroish would consist of Exchequer , and certificates of deposit. Would it be 'sound end convenient? :• On this point a Comparison between the Ex. ;-Chequer and the Sub.

If we roman• ber aright, the President, In a recent message,- said that the tOple alluded to was under consider.

There arc in .Congressi however, several members who pre (*posed to the' least delay, and in favor of the U. States taking armed possession of the Oregon country ferth with. :Mr: Linn of Missouri, is particularly anx ious, and there is a bill 'now before tho Senate, . which pry dies for the armed occupation, Sce.— This has been discussed day after day by,several of the leading Senators. -A day or two ego,.Spna. tor Linn said that the bill did not conflict with the present negotiations: M. Calhoun thought other. wise. He said' that the U. States chanted exclu. sive sovereignty and jurisdiction, whilo Gren Britain claimed that as long as the country was open to colonizing, it slMuld be open to her. Our people, he thought, should take ,quiet posseilsion of the territory, while the passage of this might be regarded as t 'quasi belligerent measure, s and lead possibly tait coelict. Mr. Linn replied; paid that the bill had received the greatest care and attention from theCuinmittee,and argued that Great Britain's claiMe, which had coinmcnced in nailing, had grown into a demand for a good por. tion of ,the territory.: Senator Choate, of Massa. chusetts, also thought that evil Would come of the passage of this bill, and that it did conflict with the treaty; One or two other Senators tookground- n favor of the bill, and the.matter is still before the Senate. This Measure is mord Important than would lit first strike the mind. The claim of the United States, if well founded, as we believe it to be, should be onforeedlull'y and properly ; a matter involving grave_ results, or any thing like a violation of a Treaty=haste, petulanee,and injustice should be carefully avoided. The North Eastern Boundary . Question, which at • One time threatened very frightful consequences was arid cably, and wel:hink fairly -adjusted.

But no matter how rich or valuable—no matter how extensive our claiM—we should mot act rashly or wantonly, and in a (Nei.. lion of this sort, we are disposed to place Much confidence in the views of 'such mcrr as Messrs. Calhoun, Choate and Baird. to the greater part of the Territory, the claim of the United States is, we )elieve, entirely undisputed. It is but - right to ad , that Senator Buchanan made a very inter. estin speech, with here - and there an exception, upon this subject a few days since; and predict ed serious trouble in 'connegion with it. The question is certainly ono of importance. Small Notes. We firid the following remarks, in the flarris- burg Reporter, made by Mr.. Kidder, the lucofo co Senator from Luzerne, uPoir 1/13 prop°, sition to give the. Banks authority to issuo small notes, made last week in the SUnitte. We arc glad to su t these iividences of a conservative foul ing in tRe, majority of the Legislature i Mr: NidJer saint was well/aware, be - ,l3irrßMs introduction, that the proposition would meet strong objections from loony members of time Senate, especially that part of it providing for the issue of small notes. Now, as the Senator from Laricas_ter. (Mr. Champneys) had taken such an active, part in opposition to the measure, and . had opposed it with so much kcal, he Would • take the liberty of asking that Senator what the principal objections were to the measure? The notes thus issued,-as also those now in circulation, would be redeemable in specie. No bank could issue more than her capital stock paid in, arid in addition the odi. us suspension provisions would be removed from over the banks, making them once more sub. 'ect to the laws of 'the land—and besides all this the adoption of this meilkure would enable the banks to sustain thernselveir durrog any period of resumption. How, he would impfire,,did the batiks of the state of New York. sustain themselves in the resumption of 1841, at a time when the Penn sylvania.banks attempted to resume, the Bank of the United States .paid' out more specie in the course of n few days than did,o// the 'banks in the city of New York during the same period. NOw the inquiry was how these banks were enabled to maintain their position. during this period of ex citement, anxiety and alarm? How did the banks' of New Jersey sustain themselves? Ilow!were the banks of Ohio sustained? The answer was obvious to every one.. It could not be denied but. that their small note issue was an invaluable aid. Now sir, said Mr. K. the question is narrowed down to this, and the conviction is daily forcing itself upon the minds of our people, tlght unless we do something to relieve the banks, we need not expect them to resume for years. We must aid thorn if wo would be aided by them. Kind offices must be reciprocal. Dut suppose, ;ir, - we do not aid the banks,--suppose we refuse to allow them the privilege of issuing small notes, how filen shall we be situated 7 Why, sir, all the States around you dre issuing their notes of the denomination of one, two and three dollars, and" those notes will circulate among our people, thus compelling us ta_pay tribute to our neighbors. He knew there had been a prejudice against the issue of these notes in many inindsoind_he_woulti ndmit that even in his own district there had been an abiding objection to them ; but ho could now say that there had been a change in the feelings of the community in regard to such notes.. Rea-, son has resumed her empire, and now there was but one sentiment-on the subject. That was in I favor of their issue. What' had produced this change ? Why, the community have learned that ley must have small notes : if they have them not of their-own, those of New York and New Jersey will circulate and continue to circulate a= mong them, until driven out by the issues of our own banks. to are some of the reasons which inducdd mo to offer, my proposition.

Mr. C. who is the: loco foco ~Senator from Lancaster, wished to define his poSition by these resolutions. He was in favor of cancelling the Relief notes, and providing means to suppl,y , the vacuum in the Treasury. The resolutions provided for the cancelling of - these notes, the saki of the. Dela ware diviiiion of the Penn'a. canal,' all the unfin: ished lines of the public works, the sale of the State stocks, &c.
