sumed, that the success of either, whichever may be
adopted, the bill, or the suUtitute, would be fatal to
the establishment -of n Natii.rwl Uunk. It can never
put down a siiccessfur measure to take its place; and,
of course, that which is irsjsi likely to fail, and re
plunge the country into all the disasters of a disorder
ed currency, is that which would most probably lead to
restoration of a INational Bnnki; and to prefer the

With this impression,, it is not at all extraordinary that
the doposite of the rel-enuo in banks for safe-keeping,
and the receipt of Iheir notes in the public dues, should'
lie e6nnidered iiiatier of course, requiting no. higher
authority than a Treasury order; and hence a connec
tion with all the important questions belonging to it,
and now considered of vsst magnitude, received eo lit

recent rupture. This total separation from the system,

if ( understand it rightly, the plan is for the Secretary
of the Treasury to select twenty-live State banks, ia
described in the substitute, which are to be submitted -lo

in the same mode as lltcy . would appoint a chaplain, or .

In acting on tho joint resolution, if yybst 1 suppose

course, tn strike from il the name of any .bank and in
sert another, which would in fact vest in the two
flout.es tlie iincoirrolliibh right of1 ma king ihe. elec
iioii. Now, if this be tho mode jyoposcd, as I. infer
lioin thelilcnco of the mover, il is a plain and palpa
ble violation of the Constitution. The obvious inten
tion is, to evade the veto power of the Executive,
which cannot be, without Tin. infraction of an express
provision of the Constitution, drawn ip with the ut
most care, and intended to prevent the possibility of
evasion, it is contained in tlie isl article, itn section,
and tho lasl clause, u l.icli I ask the Secretary to read : .
" Every order, resolution, or vote, to u hickatbe con
currence of the Senate nnd House of Representatives
may be neeescary, (except on n question of adjourn
ment) ijbnll be preset! ted to the President of the 0. tiled
Stales, and before the same MkiII lake effect, shall be
approved by him, or being disapproved by him, shall be
repassed by two-iinrds ot tlie Senate and noose ot
kepresentativds, according to 1 ho rules and liuiHatitiiii
prescribed in the esse of a bill." l
Nothing can be more explicit, or full. It is no more
possible to evade the Executive veto, on any joint vote,
