John White, of Ken- ! h is t !i i 3 inudicd power lint is the origin tucky, was elected on the first trial, by a of a United States Hank, which has bee handsome majority of votes. Matthew St. '"ted out hymen that wish to carry a po. compact agreement, Ifitas not to get his neighbor's aid to assist nmi .iams . mrtn Pnnm v. A fter they had formed then .ulna m onmniPt. thirteen mote, readini: ihem and approving their inles, joined in with them sj as to make the 2G States Now t he rules of ncement between these thirteen States to form their compact or bodv politic, is expressly set torth in the tons' liuuou ui me unmet "'n. let it be understood, that in the formation ofa State constitution, it behoves every man, before he enters the compact, to be a free man; ami he is then of course only bound in the compact of union among all the in dividuals, so far a he has agreed to in the State constitution of Nonh Carolina. So, equally so, it behoves every State to be a free and independent State, before she en iers a convention to form rules of agree ment of union, for the govr.-omenl of these thirteen Sides, or body politic. A nd I contend that every right not express ly given away and surrendered, is still be longing to the Stages. And 1 contend, that all the rights given away by any State. ire expressly laid down in the United Slates co:n:iMl on, as th compact agreement ol the union of the Slates. And I contend, that Congress his no riht of construction of the United States constitution, fan her that is expressly declared. And I contend that Con fess has' no rishl to crawl about glimpse of Mary s cat. ajoniy Clair Clarke was elected House. Clerk of the George, what does implied power mean? Don't it mean a power not expressly given: Surely. And, George, if this is the case, how am I to know who this-power came from? IIow am 1 to know the extent of that power, if not expressed in the consti tution? Then, George, ibis implied pow er of the States to Congress to charier bank, is to be hunted in every article and section of the constitution: as 1 said, in the bushes. It is there, George, the snakes and poisonous reptiles lie, and have lain ever since the formation of the constitu tion, under the bushes and in the grass of implied power. This is the p'ace ol dan ger, this is the place ofa stretch of power, this is the place where Congress has usur ped that power that don't belong to her as a surrendered right of the States, and this is the place where the Legislature of the States have usurped a power over the indi viduals of the States, never granted by the people to the Legislature; nor was it gran ted by Congress to any State to emit bills of credit, but coin nothing but gold and silver. Hut, like mother, like daughters; for I have always noticed, that if the mother was a harlot, the daughters were pretty sure to be. So then. Congress was to blame in chartering the first Hank of Ame riea, for thereby she set the bid cximple to the States; although some allowance is to be made for the ch otering the firt H ink of America, from the poveity of ihe Trea sury. Having emerged Irom a seven years' war, the finances were low and in a deranged state; help was wanting immedi ately, to help the United States io gei along as a young nation.

What a fool I must not be overturned, that every State is be then, it this clause means to chiller formed of individuals, qual in their tights, and that a State or body politic is sover eign wiihin the limits of her own territo ries, and has a r'ghi to nuke laws for her own government. For if the generations that have gone before us had a rigiit to i make laws tor their government, we have the same rights, none can doubt. Then this State, as a free and independent people, has a right to make her own laws for the government of themselves; but not the sub jets of other Stales.no more than the qu on of England has a rigiit to make laws for this Sttte. " And if you ask me, George, what is vour J political creed? I say, 1 go the whole hog for State right.-, over which neither the U nited Slates, nor any king or emperor, has a right to it ig i ; but the people alone, to ; make their own laws and govern them selves. And I wish they could do sr, without violating the constitution in their granting bank charters to the rich, when the poor are shut out of this paiticipition of their wealth by stockjobbing, and work for them to pay ihe in'crest of three for one dollar. And I say, tha' in the same way every State in the Union, which at that time was thirteen, now 2G States, came forward and tntered into compact or confederation, as did the individuals in one State. Then every State only stands for an individual ijj each State, to Congress and the compact, confederation; so that in Congress, each State stands hv a man in any one State. You see my idea, keep them; for the?e thirteen men came forward and pawned their 1 ives and fortunes and sacred honor, to abide upon and sustain the principle they shall agree upon in compact, so as o form a union of strength against their enemies; although each man was fice and- independent before he entered into compact, and a.ight have kept out of the a bink or bank bills. I would re ommeud ail the hanks to hive their notes s'amp d on shoe soles, since Congress is authorised only by the Slates to go by weight and mea sine, and fix ihe standard weight of banti bids. Hut, sirs, this clause showeth the power given to Congress by the Si.ites, that she nas no light to coin any thing but gold and silver, and fix the standard weight of both domtstic and foreign; and this is the extent ot the power given by Ihe states in the con- s itutiou to Congiess. And that the Stales hjve given no wherein the constitution, power lo coin bank bdis by Congress, ami fix the st in lard weight and measure there of. If Congress does, this must be the measure, pay down, in cjsh and run away defaulters will always shoulder the silver, instead of bank no es; and these being tired of their turn, will be easier caught. Hmk bills are not gold, silver,nor coin; and Con gress has nothing to do with them. To weigh bank bills fix their standard weight liiiu nail paiiu uiciii mil: oiaies lor COlll, shameful; fr fraud, deceit, covetous ness, and oppression, runs through cveiv putie'e of the banking sj-stcm, if I am a judge, i shall then put it down as a point that canne-t he overturned, tin t there is no expressed power given in the Uni:ed states constitution to Congress, lo charter a bank of the United States, come foith who will. Then I shall put it down as certain, tha' if Congress has power from the contim tion ot ihe United Sint.es lo charier a bank,ii mu-t belike old Mary's cat when asked, where is your cat? Oh, saulshe, dearS.d ly, she is here, there, and every wheie, ami nowhere. So then, I .shall go to hum for old Maiy's cat in implied power to Con gress to charter a bank; bui to what aiticle or section shall I go, since Mary's cat is here, there, and every where, & no where? good as theirs that they give him.
