If he couldbe FatisfieoShat this would be the case, it would '; lidve considerable influence with him but when he recollected, that we already r ceive i )ii sends from our present Bank Stock, abdut $4"0,000 dollars, besides the tax col lected from two of them, he was unwilling to surrender this ource o.revenue for an uncer tainty ; fbr while our; pres ' nt Banks pay from 6 to 8 p r'Cent. it is probable - the propose d new Bank' might . not pay " more t'an 3 per cent. The State Bank, when it first, went into operation, paid but three,, 3nd the Bank of the United States at present, dues not pay tmore. ;. . . : : Tiiis new Bank is to.huve a Presiuent and - seven. Directors, w hp must be men of husi nsss and talents, residing in this place, and niust receive an adequate compensation; and not only the .Parent Institution, but the several Brunches, will require Directors, Cashiers and Clerks Houses "for conducting the business in will be . required for the Prin cipal Hank apd all if s branches.' These must be built. . , Thre Commssaorters and a Trus tee will be wanted for every county, who must be paid for their services. . And when all these expencescome to be deducted from the gnins of the instiiuStion, the dividends vrill necessarily be small. ' Mr. S. said, if we must have a Bank of this kind, h ha V no particular objection to the details of the present bill. ; It ought to be fixed in Raleigh, and it must have the neces sary officers. But he was unwilling to give ufj our present revenue, in order to emb irk in an "untried scheme.. But he aided, we must incur another risk. This Bank is to bemanaged by seven men - hereafter to be elected, and he dunight, with the gentleman, from Edenton, that it would be running too great a risk to place all the morey concerns of the? State in such hands; fyr it is expected that this Mammoth Banc will sh allow up all the existing institutions 'Is this legislature willing .to place in the hands of thefc seven men, the power of us- ,, ing the funds and credit of the State to any ambun;? .

In New-York latfljy a President of - one of the Uahks i-ycrdrt-w $ 100,000 ; yet this was done in' a B ik under the direction of men who had each ai in i mediate intert st in -its welfare. The sjtirfe thing has occurred in thi&State.How esy would it be fbr the distant Bfanrhes of tfe proposed Bank to defraud the jnstitutioa to any amount. Tet itwill be in the. power of. these men to use the unlfmi ted.credit of. the-State, and the government -will be pledged to make good all deficien cies, lie was trnw Ming to give this pledge. Another objection to this bill he consider- ed insuperable. In the vear 1810, tire State Bank was Incorporated ; in the following rear an act passed to amend ; and extend the charter, and ahvn;-st other things it waspro- v'.u u, mni m consideration or me ionic's re deeming.the whole of the then paper curren cy,-hat the chaiter should be extended five years, and the faith o the Legislature was . jrleuged thar n other Hank should be esta bft3licd until the chart r expired: While he ncln :wled2red that no Lee-islature hat! th power of binding a 'Succeeding one in matters oi g-nerai legislation, vet when one Leg sla ture enters into a contract, that contract can nor be set aside or invaded bv a future Lepris- ia-ure,any more man inaiviauajs could invade or set a-ide a contract entered into by them. Te only enquiry is, wa's'a contract entered .n.to i t It the answer be iti the affirmative," it cannot be uivaded. Mr. S.

This will be an insm mountable objection to the bill on the table, until the charter of the State Bank expires.

" Perpetuities and monopo- ues are in vain Toroidden by the sacrea spirit I of our constitution, or,-n aristocracy of wealth is rising up among-st us, which all the exer tions of4he honest yeomanry of tlie country may not be able to restrain within due bounds.,..,..'--. - .. '' 'l . Various objections have been urged against the passage of this bill. In the first place, its provisions are aid to conflict with the constitution. Mr. S. said he was disposed to entertain for that' instrument the'sv e reve rence that he paid to the decalogue ; and if it can be considered as coming m colhson with even the least important of its principles, Chere is ah end to discussion. But it was his opinion that the Constitution does not interfere with this question, and he would endeavor to lay before the committee the grounds of that npinion. .e would first take a brief view of thej establishment" of the several ba rking, institutions in 4his State.--' Theoriginal chas-tcrs of the Banks of New bern and Cape-Far were granted in the vear 804, one ith a capital of $200,000, the other with a capital of $250,000. The charters wen; granted, not with the intention that they should remsiin independent banks, but that they should beconne branches of a State BanV, whenever the Legislature should find it convenient and politic to establish one. To prove that this was-the intention of the Legislature, Mr. S. reid the following provi so from the Act establishing the Banks of New bern nd Cape-Fear c Nothing herein r contained shall be con strued to give to th.e Bank by this Act created, any precedence or preference to any Bank which tjie Legi dature may at anytime here after establish at the towns Of Wilmington and FvYetteviHej or elsewhere; and . the said Bank by this act established may become a brahch of any general bank wh'ch maybe established forthe State in the City of Ra leigh, or elsewhere' How this favorite object of. the State was defeated, we will presently enquire. - In the year 1810, .the Legislature created the StJtte1' Bank of North-Carolina, and in its clv.rter she placed a provision that the Banks ofNewbern and Cape-Fear might," if they chose, become branches of that Bank. And the act of Incorporation contained a pledge that the State would not establish auy othr r Bank until the expiration of the charter of the State Bank. In the following- year, an amendatory act was passed, in which the same provision was re-erweted. In the year.1812, three years after the es tablishment.of the Shite Jtank, the Banks of Cape Fear arid Newbern asked at tlie ha ds of the Legislature, not to be admitted as branches to the newly created parent insti tution, Iut an extension of , capital 's inde pendent B ;nks,.to $800,000 The friends of the State Bank, then on this. floor, urged, and urjed ably. that;to extend the term of their corporations and to increase their capital, would be a violation of the faith of the tate, whjch bad been twice pledged, that no new Rank should be established until the expira tion of. the term lor which the St te Bank was incorporated. How, enquired Mr. S. Was fiiis objection obviated ? it was contend ed by the gentlemen representing the inter ests of the Bank- of Newbern Sc CapeFear, that to ' establish" was to "creaie," and that the bills then under consideration only1 proposed to'crerte the capitals of the Hanks already " establislied.." It was, to be sure, a four-fold increase, an incre ase from $200,000 to 800,000, but it was not establis!lng,! 1 Turn this argument as you "may, sir, it is a mere play upon words. To say that to ' es tablish'! a new Hank with' a capital of 200000 dollars, would have been a violation of the faith of the State, thus doubly plighted, and that to increase the capital of a bank already established, thrice this sum. would not. is to adhere to the letter and to' disregard "the spi rit. We cannot suppose the Legislature to have decided on this ground. It was urged at the same time, said Mr. S. and corrects as hebelieved, that the pledge was in and of itseit a' monopoly, andtberefore created no obligation, either legal or moral, on the Legis lature to obseve it. On this pnndiple alone, he said, could the Legiilature have deter mined to extend the charters as asked for : andhe enquired with what oronrietv thp- friends of the State Bank could at this late day, after a. deliberate legislative adjudica tion, and an acquiescence of more than ten years oft the part of the Bank in that decisi. on." shelter tlieinselves .under this abrogated pledge. ; V ::- i"! -.' - If the members of the Legislature at that time who represented the interests of the State Bank, weri of .opinion that the chart er- ed rights of that Bank vere infringed by the acts increasing-' the opitals of the Newhem and Cape-Fear Baril i, Mr. S. enquired how it rad liappened that the friends of that bank had 'never broui-httheir cause before the .1 u- diciar' of the country j -since if. the acts iu queition'had invaded their charter, no one vw.yi. vw; iuuiw wim nave aeciar- KltV " Cm m ...V I f 1. ho oppose ti e biU riow r.dcr cr'!;sjderai;pn; i coKstititiioMtl , ground sV ff i- if it, 'mfrlng on iva the constiiution. or any ves eu ncrin, .our Courts will prevent ' itfrom41 goin into ope ration. ' " " The erentleman trom IJalitax na admitted that our present hankshave been grossly, mis- managccK .. And at the last session, it was ac knowledge d on this floor, that nil the bank. had abused public confidence, snd that their charters liad been oafedr Huttlie frif fid of the bartkrf dared the Legislat ure q medflle with them, j intimating that the'morrient they presumed to interfere with them, they were. nrenared to spread rum in tlie community. by immediately taking" measures o collect iheir tlehts from the peopje throughoi:t the. State. ;- This lanintaife was widely different from that used by the friends of the bank in 1813, when the extension of the ? capitals of the Thinks ot Newbern and Cape-Fear was under consideration. , However tnikl and concilia:irg the voice of a monied aristocracy may be,' when if sH-eks for favor, the moment it is securely established, it fecl power and forgets right. So long as the favored few can rofl in wealth and splendor, they, c.ire little of what becomes. of th great sbqdy of the people. . - But it has been said, that. to rrant a char ter of the kind proposed by this bill, would be to violate the constitution s of the United States. .That constitution provides, that no Str.te shall emit bills of credit But will the notes intended to be issued by this B nk, be bills of credit ? Tie presumed not. If he un derstood-tbe hill, these nntes were to be is sued on the funds of. the State. But what has been tlie conduct of the present B:inks in relation to bills of -credit ? How came our Treasury Notes first to be issue-', which may be considered in the liffht of bill of credit. as no funcs are pledged for their redemption ? Kx'amine the charters or tlie Hanks ot t.ape Fear and Newbern, aud it will be found that they were issu d at their instance. Thev went into their vaults, and" were paid out by them. The. State Itank hns also had a concern in this busine-s. the second issue haviner been made at its instance. , To shew, which, .Mr. S. read the preamble of the bill direcling the issue of 80,000 dollars in small notes, whioh were received by the State Bank in payment of a like amount of the debt ow ing by the State to tht i' S'itu'ibn on account of the Stock held by it in that Bank, and yet the friends of that institution now charge the friends of 'the present bill with a violation of the Constitution h, p ro p"; si nir to issue bills of credit. S.r let the old banks wipe away t his stain, before tbey a'- tempt to reproach the new one for the same sin In reference to the pledge riven to the State Bank, Mr, S further contended, thattf the Legislature were bound by the letter they were not bounJ by the spirit of the alleged contract. It m:ght be likened to a ' catching contract' made with an infant '-eir,' The Le gislature was deceived and defrauded He took a wide distinction between a grant arid a contract. It is a question of doubt, settled, perliaps in the Cse of Dartmouth C' llege. w hether the same power that cre ates a corporation, cannot disso've it. And when it is known tbat this bank .has violated its charter, and when it has been said that they httve the power of" putting in and put ting out ot this Legislature, whom they please," he doubted whether it were neces sary to go through all the legal forms which miht be necessary in other cases. The tacts of tlie case are well known to the Legislature, and they 'ought to take -such course as will b-st promote the public intorfst. Let us now, said Mr S turn o the present situation of H;e country, represented by the gentleman from. Halifax' as being prosperous Where, asked Mr. S. is this prosperity to be seen r is it in tms metropolis, in our com mercial towns, at our ports of entry, or a- morigst the agriculturists of the country I Or is it to be seen in the progress of -mr Inter nal Improvements, or by the course of legis lation in this Hall; -where. we,consume a few weeks in passing a fey unimportant "private bills and then return home, while the Legis lature of -fionth-Carolina has appropriated a million of dollars for Internal Improvement, at a single session and $170,000 is now ask ed, and will probably be given, for improving a single river. What have we done in North-Carolina ? We have reared this spiepdid Edifice, and we. have ornamented it with a Statue of. the Fa ther of his Country. Upon this the eye of the patriot may rest with contending emotions of pride and pleasure, but posterity will look in vain for the vest' pre sof any o her monument of the taste and public spirit of their fathers. If said M'r. S. we turn to the Expose of the situation of the Newbern & Cape-Fear Banks, and make afa-r supposition asto.the situation of the affairs of the State Bank (for that insti tution has not honored us with a statement in ti ne for my purpose) we will find that, the citizens of this State are indebted to the Banks something like six millions of dollars. Is this too ah evidence ot our prosperity under banking auspices ? The charters of these Hanks will expire in about nine vesrs, and supposing no cnangeior the worse, each conn ... ? .1- . ...Ml iy in iue oiaxe.wiu owe, upon an average, something like $100,000, and who can tell where the money is to come from It has been said that we receive a revenue of move than $40,000 a year trom the present itanKs. is this, asked Mr. S. gilded bait thrown out to curry favour for these institu tmns f The people are indebted to them $6,000 000, borrowed when their notes were at a discount of four per cent, so that the borrowers lost S240,0Q0 by the transaction- Vet, sir, tlie same charter containing this fa mous .pledge, contains an article restrictinjr uie ijinKS io six per cent, interest on loans. And this isk not all. Northern funds purchased at four cent, advance, must in many instances be paid for debts thus contracted, and adding these losses to the six per cent, paid in ad vance ; '(almost equal to 7 in effect.) and you have 14 per cent, as the 'rate of usury. ;Mr. S. wished to be understood as having no personal hostility to. the present Banks. He owned no Bank Stock, and he thanked God he owed no Bank debt ; and he believ ed his constituents are nearly as independent of these institutions, as he was himself. f. But he considered the people of the State; br a very distressing situation, with thts enor. mous debt hanging over their. heads, i In G. Britain, their national debt had. been called a national olessing ; but he was far from con sidering our debt in this light'. He feared, that whenever jthe Banks call .for payment; or close theif concerns, a scene of extreme i distress will be the consequence. ForIn proportion as they call in their debts, will the amount' of, money in circulation be les sened j and as tlie quantity is lessened, the value of what remains will appreciate, so that a debt may he'eight or ten times as large.

Had he no other - ob jection to me bill, this would be an insuperable one However desirous we. may be', said Mr Si o trive the wholel! profits of the . proposed Bank to the State, the scheme is altogether chimerical. In South-Carolina, they hajye a Hank bottomed on the fandsof the State Jfmd be was sorry to qbserve that that Bank lis at present said to be in a perilous situation, and has had recourse o the issuing of one iand two dollar 'bills, which' form nine-tenth's of their ciixrulation. and which rthe' Brokers iwill not be at the trouble of collecting for the pur pose of obtaining specie for them. And he knew df no ot her. St-de. 'that had a Bank jike the one proposed in this bill. .' - Kentuckv. Tennessee and Alabama had each th' ir Hanks founded on public faith, without specie, and those or our citize ns who have lost forty or fifty per cent', by their notes, can best tell the mischief and embar- rasments which these institutions produced. My opinion, said Mr. S, may be singular, but I 'submit it wi;h confidence that it will be well received, 'because it is welt meant. No Bank, he said, would answi r our purpose, withoufa p rtionof individual stockliolders. The State may" hold a large patt of the slock, and there should be a proper balance of pdw- er in the Director)-, so' that the -Legislature would not be -t bie to control the Lianic, or the Rank to dictate to the Legislature : but rhpst assuretllv individual vigilance a;one can keep its concerns in order.'1. ?',-.
