We copy from ihe Globe of Friday the folIowirtarticle whichf-pTesents the- views which" the President takes of the bill, and' the ground on which he yields his assent to its passage: - . . ' X THE DEPOSITE BILL. 1( 4 The deposite bill has been approved by the President:- The :.i roost important v feature in this act is that which makes, the Iseveral States the depositories of all the public moneys which may be in the Treasury on the first of Janua ry next, over the sum of five millions of dollars on their passing laws, pledging the faith of the States respectively' to pay: the warrants of ihe Treasury in the manner prescribed." By an a mendment introduced by an overwhelming ma jority ofthe House of Representatives; all the features of the bill which" went to make the proposed transfer of the money to the States a loan or srilt, were struck out, and as the act now stands, they are to be mere depositories like the banks in which the public moneys are now- kept. f - ; ; yf:-hi , We hazard nothing : in saying, that had the hill passed as it went from the. Senate, as anx ious as the President was to see. the public deposites regulated by law, and as painful as it wouia nave - oeeu . 10 seperaie on aay suojeci from many of his most valued friends, it would have - received, his decisive veto.We have been surprised that any one who has read his annual message of 1829, and his veto messages on the Mays ville road bill, and Mr. (May's land bill, would for a moment anticipate any other result. ; ;i j,: '!;:-v,i: :;; i;;-'..; -,i . j J;-f " We are equally warranted in saVing that the President has approved the amended bill, 4 not because he thinks ;- it judicious to make ...the States the depositories of the moneys of the U- nited States, but because, the plan is not ob noxious I to the constitutional, objections'' ; be cause it has been presented by a majority of the people's representatives, to wnotn the ques tion of expediency on this subject j peculiarly belongs ; and because, by settling the ques tion in relation to the public deposites, it dis arms faction, and renders it more difficult for the money power to reorganize itself under the charter of a new national bank., :. i : He thinks it impolitic and unsafe the affairs of the .United States with those of .t .1 n . . . .

It . i3 probahle he will take some li tin? occasion to make known to his countrymen, in detail, the views he entertains on this vital subject. It is only necessary now uiai viiey : biiuuiu kiiuw, viiai iu approving me deposite bill he does hot intend to countenance, in the least degree, the idea of raising . money by the General Government for distribution among the States, thus less-ening the responsi-i bility of the State Governments in taxing the people, and at the same time encouraging ex travagant expenditures ; making' the States, in stead of independent sovereignties, the mere Stipendiaries of the General Governments per verting the power of taxation' given in the eon stituiion to purposes' never thduht of by its framers; c6rr6pting th sources pflegislation; tending td vconsolidatiohi abd bltimately dei stroying. all that is pure and valuable in the structure and administration ' of our political system. . -. -:f. -' S: 1 T "' f f !" The President believes that it is bad policy, as well as unconstitutional to raise money from the people for the- purpose of distributing, it among the states, r lie believes that when the revenues of the General Government 'shall produce more than enough - to supply its legi timate wants, it is the. duty of Congress forth- witn to reauce me taxes upon me people. To collect for the purposes of distributioni is nei ther politic nor economical. It is noti politic, because it necessarily-increases -the corps of public officers, and consequently the influence of the Government. It is not economical, be cause the people have to pay, the salaries of . . . . - .1 ! . those who manage the process and guaranty their integrity. Is it not better iha tithe far- raer'a dollar should be' left in his own! pocket, than that .it should .be taken out by taxes, di rect or indirect, and, after a year 9 detention, be handed back to hini or to his State Legisla ture, with a deduction of twenty bents to bay collectors and clerks who have been employed to take it away and bring it back 2 . The same principles apply, to all classes of society and to society itself, wilh the exception of those only Tiiu jrujimy nign taxes. .

On the J contrary, both the Globe and the Tiroes frequently avow, and sincerely entertain the opinion expressed by candid men of all parties, that the election of Van Buren to the Presiden cy; : by arr immense majority, is as sure as a fu ture event" can be.
