They are very confident if they tssu. too mUeh paper, that there will bq rim upon them ; beca theilniarat f ! Unite estates Bank and the state. banks do not at ull rimes go hand in hand. At this time it certainly restrains the circulation of state bank-paper. It is s tid, sir, that the A tes are not compelled to do particular acts which they are required to Ho.

They have taken a solemn oath nd roust perform its ob ligations. Sir, there is one part of tins constitution vrhich In" my humble opinion gives the power completely It is a pirt of the constitution which I never heard, any gentleman mention, nor any writer on the sub ject, I may put erroneous construction on it ; but jf I m correct, the conclusion is Inevitable. In the 10th section of the first article, it is said, No state shall coin money, emit bills of credit or make any thing but gold and silver coin a tender in pay ment of debts;" and the interpretation which I give to it is that the United States possess the pow er to make any thing besides gold and silver a le gal tender. If this then be the correct construction, it is a clause which I have never before heard rel ied on. If what I conceive to be the fau interpre tation be admitted, it must follow that Qicy have a right to-make bank paper a tender Murfi more, then, sir, have they the power of causing it to be received by themselves in payment, of taxes. If they have power to make paper of any description whatever receivable ki payment of all debts what ever, can any one deny that ' they have a power to make it a tender in payment of taxes or debts to the United States ? After admitting the powerwill you place the exeicise of it in your Secretary of the Treasury, or in the hands of fifteen or . twenty men whom you call directors ? But I might riot have voted against conedtring with the committer in Htriking out the first section of the bill if I stood 01 . this ground alone. To the bill in its present shape I should have no hesitation in Riving a decided negative ; but there is a plan on which I would vote for the renewal. Sir, I ask genUeraen who have voted against it on constitutional ground to meet me on ,this point the plan is, that the .additional stock shall be taken wholly bv the United States ; that they shall be bound to distribute it among the individual states, having resDcct to their .relative numbers, at Its bar value. The states would take it if- they think prdper ; if taken mere is an ena 10 me vioiauan ot state ngnis. In a plan of this kind, a distinction .is brought to the mind of every man, whether he will prefer the in terest ofthe great body of those people who are re presented in the state legislaturej or whether he will support the interest of & few who fhfifll proper to Incorporate themselves for the support of a bank. The true question is,, whether the emoluments of the banking system should belong exclusively to a ftw or collectively to the 'whole United States. I HOUSE OF KEl'UESENTATlVE3 received but two discounts from the branch bank of Bahi J Bc"cr government, vmn regard to Joi eign nation- more, t wit i one of nineteen hundred and sixteen dol-1 motion of Mr. Haven, the House resolved lars and fifty five cents, and one of eighteen hundred dol-lttself into a Committee of the whole.

Perhaps it had not bn hla good fni-tune to be understood in the remarks which he presumed were alluded to bv Mr. M's corrennondent. Ii was Kis mea 3.ig, if pot his words, that aHiourh parti- Kn .ti... 1 .1.- . '1 (' . I f 1' ..ij uau k- 11 niifcu 111 me uiHinuuiion 01 mc iavotirs 01 the bank of Baltimore, he had been informed from pood authority, that of its discounts iwore than one luflf had been obtained by gentlemen of politics opposite to those ofthe bank i and that in the purchase of bills df exchange for government, this bank had purchased a larger amount from the house alluded to (Smith and Buchanan) than li-om any other house in Baltimore. I .m satisfied, said Mr. M. With the explanation I have not introduced the speech and letter, so much to sup port mr argument, as to do justice to my friend ( nor can I vouch for the correctness of the report. It has been stated that 19 or 20 millions of dollars are due to this bank, Whose" charter Is now about to1 espire ; that if the charter is not renewed , it will produce great dis tress, and general bankrupcy will ensue ;. that the bank in winding up its concerns, can receive nothing bu sptcie, which will exhaust the resources'of the other bunks and individuals, and thereby produce a result the most disas trous p the mercantile interests of the nation. This state ment is incorrect. By the returns from the treasury, it appear that r.o more than g 1,318,024 was due to the bank ; and that lhe ban'u. is indebted tor the public, and to individuals, in Uie sum of g 1 1,542,320 ( and all the offset it had, against this heavy debt, are the above sum, due from difftrtnt state bank of g 1,318,024.
