McNEILL. My2S,l24I. i:8-lf i EXTRACTS FROM TIIE SPEECH OF MR. BENTON, On the title which should be given to the "Fiscal Corporation." J Mr WOODBURY said, call it the Botts Bank. Mr BENTON. Very well; any thing, so it is short. I go for short names and will give reasons for it. The people will have short names, although they may spoil a fine one; and I will give you an instance. There was a most beautiful young -lady in New Or leans some years rago, as there always has been, and stilly are many such. She was a Creole, that is to say, born in the country, of parents from Europe. A gentleman who was building a superb steamboat, took it into his head to honor this young lady, by connecting bur name with his vessel; so he bestowed upon it the captivating designation of La Belle Creole. This fine name was painted in golden letters on the sides of his vessel; and away she went, with three hundred horse pow er, to Kentucky and Ohio. The vessel was beautiful, and the name was beautiful, and the lady was beautiful; but all the beauty on earth could not save the name from the catastrophe to which all long titles are subjected. It was immediately abbreviated, and in the abbreviation,- sadly deteriorated. At first they called her the bell not the French belle, which sig nifies tine or beautiful but the plain English bell, which in the Holy Scriptures, was defined to be a tinkling cymbal. This was bad enough; but worse was coming. It so happens that the vernacular pronunciation of the word Cre ole, in the Kentucky waters was Cre-owl , so they began to call this beautiful boat the Cre owl ! But things did not stop here. It was too extravagant to employ two syllables when one would answer iust as well, and? be so much more economical ; so the first balf of the name was dropped, and the lastshalf retain ed ; and thus La belle Creole the beautiful Creolesailed up and down the Mississippi all her life by the name, style, tilled and de scription of the " The Owl." (Roars of laughter in the Senate, with exclamations from several that it was a good name for a bank) Mr B. continued. I do not know1 whether owl will do for this child of long name and many fathers ; but we must have a name, and must continue trying till we get one. Let us hunt far and wide : let us have recourse to the renowned JEsop andThis fables, and to that one of his fables which teaches us how an old black cat succeeded in getting at the rata again after having eaten too many of them, and become too well known under her proper form to catch an y more. She rolled . herself over in a meal tub converted her black skin into white, and walked forth among1 the rats as a new and innocent animal that they had never seen before. All were charmed to see her! but a quick application of teeth and claws to the throats and bellies of the rats let them see that it was their old acquaintance, the black cat; and that whitening the skin did not alter the instincts of the animal, nor blunt the points of it3 teeth and claws. The rats, after that, called her the meal-tub cat, and the mealy cat. May we not call 'this corporosity the meal-tub Bank? A cat-ish name would cer tainly suit it fn one particular; for like a cat, it has many lives, and a cat, you know, must be killed nine times before it will die; so say the traditions of the nursery; and of all histo ries the traditions of children are the most ve racious. They teach us that cats have nine lives. So of this Bank. It has been killed several times, but here it is still, scratching, biting, and clawing. Jackson killed it in 1832; Tyler killed it last week. But this is only a beginning. Seven times more the Fates must cut the thread of its hydra life be fore it will yield up the ghost. The meal tub! No insignificant, or vulgar name. It lives in history, and connects its fame with king and statesmen. We all know the Stuarts of England an honest and big oted race in the beginning, but always uu for tunate iu the end. The second Charles was beset by plots and cabals. There were many attempts, or supposed attempts to kill him; many plots against him, and some very ridi culous; among the rest one which goes by the name of the meal-tub plot; because tho'papers which discovered it were found in the meal tub where the conspirators, or their enemies, had hid thern. Now, between that meal-tub plot in England, and this corporosity concep tion in America, there may be a similitude, and a striking one, (if you will pardon a pun,) in this, lhat, whereas, . each had killing for their object! the English to kill a king, the American to kill off a President! If so, I hope the American President may have as good luck as Charles the second--1 am sure he deserves better and escape all the machi nations of meal-tub, or corporation coospi rators, whether the design be to kill him ofli or chain him to a bauk car. Sit, I have given j ou a good deal of meal lhi.4 morning; but you must take more yet. It is a fruitful theme, and may give us a good name before we are done with it. I have a reminiscence, as the novel writers say, and I will tell it. When a small boy, I went to school in a Scotch Irish neighborhood, and learnt many words and phrases which I have nor met with eiuce, but which were words of great pitch and power; among the rest shake poke. Mr. Archer. I never heard lhat be fore. Mr Benton: But you have heard of poke. You kuow the adage: do not buy a pig in the poke; that is to aay, in the bag; for poke signifies bag, or wallet, and is a phrase much used in the north of England, and among the Scotch Irish in America. A pig i carried to market in a poke, acd if you buy it without - me n in." - taking it out first, you may be So corn is carried to a mitt poke, and When brought home, ground into meal, the meal remains in the pokey iu the hooes of poor families, until it is jrijTed up. hen the bag is nearly empty, itis jrned upside down and shaken; and the . ql that comes out is called the shake-poke that is to say, the last shake of the bag; By an easy and natural metaphor, this termhfal.-o applied to the last child that is bori in a family; especially if it is puny or a ric&ery concern. The last child, like the last meal, is called a shake-poke; and may wo not cS!l this Jiscalous corporation a shake-poke aLrund for the same reason? It ia the last -Cha Jlast at all events for the se sion! it ii tha last meal in their bag their shaktf-pchtTand it is certainly a rickety con- ;Tdo not pretend to impose a name upon tblt bantling: that is a privilege of paternity, Or of sponsorship, and I stand in neither re lation to this babe. But a name of brevity of brevity and significance it must have; tfnd, if the fathers and sponsers do not bestow it, the people will: for a long name is abhor red and eschewed in all countries. Remem ber the fate of John Barebone, the canting hy pocrite in Cromwell's time. He had a very good name John Barebone ; but the kuavo composed a long versp, like Scripture, to sanc tify himself with it, and intituled himself thus : "Praise God, Jlarebone, for if Christ had not died jor you, you ivould be damned, Bare- bone." Now, this was very sanctimonious; but it was loo long loo much: of a good thing -and so the people cut it all off but the last two words, and called the fellow "damned Barebonef and nothing else but damned Barebone, all his life after. So let this cor porosity beware : it may get itself demand before it is done with us, and I yfer too. But, enough. Let irs give over names, and talk about the news. Have you heard the news, Mr President? If n t, I am but a' poor hand to tell it to you ; for 1 heartjothing but what I meet ou the pavement as I wuik backwards and forwards from the school-room of my children to the Senate Chamber of the United States. I hear but little, but that f will give you. It runs thus : Col. Dayton is out of the JSarik ! He is out ! and you kuow how much sorrow I expressed lhat a South Carolina gentleman had gone into it. Near three months ago, in my first speech here, I expressed that sorrow, lie is gone ! Diddle fain ! not corporeally, for that would injure Ihe corporation. But he is in, and Samuel Jaudon was here, and helped to write ihe charter of this Corporation Fiscal ity, and it is all a Biddle Bank concern!.'! Look at (he subscribers for the stock, that are to be: See section 1, Hue 10. Corporations.1 ihey are to subscribe! and the Biddle Bank, and its affili ations, are to take the whole. Jn plain Eng lish, we are recharleriug the defunct United States Bank, making it worse than ever, and giving it a charter for nothing, whic h might be sold for five millions iu open market. This ia the news, sir! and here we all are, beset and besieged by Biddle's Bank! a thing too weak to pay a dollar to a creditor; but strong enough to imprison the Senate to gag ihe House to menace the President with expulsion from office and to hold Congress together until it again takes the vole upon ts imperious de mand for a charter. And now, Mr President, I have but one word more to say, and lhat is to comply with4 my promise to show the'propriety of constitu ting this committee, to whom we have com mitted thU Fiscal Corporation, on the same principles on which was const rtufed the Bank Examination Senatorial Committee of 1834. The propriety is iu this : Both institutions are the same. They are both Ihe ame thing Biddle Banks and both require the tender caro of kindly friends !
