S PATE OF THO, COUNTRY. "
In the Senate on Wednesday, Mr. Web
ster said;
We break up then.sir, with no sub-trea-surv
bill.
We breakup with, no ipecial depotito
bill.
We break up without having tun rn
dered to the executive the just control of
Congress over the public money.
We bteak u,i. having abolished the
Specie Circular.
But we break op, nevertheless, leaving
such provisions of law in existence, and
such a Treasury circular in existence aa
must, in my opinion, very seriously em
barrar.s the operations of business, espe
cially in particular parts of the country.
And we break uj moreover, without
having done any thing any thing at all
inwards establishing a paper currency
equivalent to specie, of universal credit,
aud of the same value in eveiy part ol
the county. Till we eatablish such a
currency as this, we shall not have per
formed a big? and important duty which,
in my opinion ia tolemly binding upon
us. Tilj we do thit, that is not done
which will effectually aatisfy the Country,
other things may be palliatives, but that
thing alone can commute effectual reme
dy and rtlief.
I will onjy dl, ir. because 1 believe
it is true, thai if a measure calculated to
carry into full effect the abolition of
the Specie Circular such a measure as
I had the bqnr to propose lo the Senate
could have been presented in a manner
to be aeted on. without delay or embar
rassment to the popular branch of Con
gress it would have succeeded in that
branch, by a very decided majority. Tbe
