n-T Tim rn (!r will find on OUT first
U i w
p.igc the Vreto Message of Picsident Tyler,
with the comments of the Globe upon it.
The Message has been hailed with undis-
sembled joy by the Democracy, and with
correeponding sentiments of disappoint
ment, vexation and anger by the Whigs,
agreeably to their Federal propensities.
Another National Dank, under a different
name, bu,t still retaining the odious and
objectionable discounting feature, it will he
seen, has been put forth, and we can but
hope will meet with the same fate as its
predecessor.
Congress The Bankrupt bill, and the
bill to repeal the Sub Treasury, have re
ceived the signature of the President and
have therefore become laws. The Distri
bution bill has also passed the Senate, and
only wants the signature of the President
to become a law.
A new National Dank bill has been pas
sed by the House of Representatives, by a
majority of 31 votes, entitled "An act to
tember.

The Opossom Fighter's thoughts.
Now, George, take care of your shins,
for I and the Secretary of I he Treasury must
have a bit of a. bout on the draft and plan
of a National Dank. He has drawn his, and
submitted it to the consideration of Con
"res'", as he ought to have done. .as an of
ficial character of the United States. Bui
my plan of a bank, as being a free man
without office, 1 shall submit mine to the
consideration of the people, the true sov
ereign of the States and nation. Tor in
point of rights, whether original or con
slitutional, I think myself the Secretary's
or a Tyler's equal; but not in point of of
fiee, or talents. However, as 1 have
. -i . i . i iii
cyugnt some uieas in u l consider vaiuauie
from the Secretary of the Treasury, and
the honorable Henry Clay, on a banking
fiscal agent, they may with their longheads
perhaps catch a bubble from mine on that
subject. Therefore 1 want you both tos'and
up to your racks and 1 will not tread on
your toes, if 1 can help it.
Preface to 7iy Bank plan.
And firs!, if the generation that has gone
before us had a riyrht to form a constitution
provide for the better collection, safe keep
ing, and disbursement of the public rove- anJ ,a"s r1' t,lcif own government, 1 con
nue, by means of a corporation to be stvled
the Fiscal Corporation of the United
States." It has, however, yet to pass the
ordeal of the Senate, and perhaps encoun
ter another veto.
g3The Philadelphia United States Ga
zette has the following paragraph:
The Cabinet. A correspondent at
Washington mentions, in his letter of Mon
day night, that after a private meeting
of the Whigs, it was understood that the
Cabinet would hold their places and await
the result of another attempt to create a
fiscal agent. If that should fail, they must
go out.
(jpHenry D. White, convicted four
years ago,of burning the Treasury Building
in Washington and confined in the Peniten
tiary ever since, has recently been pardon
ed by the President, and discharged; facts
having come to light which throw a strong
doubt over his participation in the crime
with which he was charged.
United Stales Loan. The New York
American states that the balance of S500,
000, of the million and a half offered by
the Secretary of the Treasury, has been
taken by Messrs. Ketchum, Roger, and
Bement of that city, at 5J.
American Consul in Prison. The
Philadelphia United States Gazette of yes
terday say?: "Captain Merriman, of the
bark Iris, at this port, from Matanzas,
gives information that Mr. Cross the A
merican Consul at that port, had b en in
carcerated in prison by order of the Gov
ernor General of Cuba. The cause is not
Mated, but whatever it may be it is a bold
move, and one which cannot be passed over
by our Government without notice. We
ore informed by a gentleman, long a resi
dent at Matanzas, that Mr. C. was remark
able for his mild and amiable disposition,
and most unlikely to give offence to the
authorities of the island. A former Con
sul at that port (the late Mr. Shoemaker,)
also met with some indignity in the early
part of General Jackson's Administration,
which was promptly taken in hand bv him.
and brought before the notice of the Span
ish Government through its Minister at
Washington, and resulted in a proper satis
faction rendered in the case. We
take ii for granted that what is necessary
to be clone in the present instance, will be
clone well and quickly."

frt. C. All the moneys arising from

stockjobbers, will be benefitted bv banking
Art. 7. The faith of each State shall be
pledged for the redemption of the notes of
each bank in the Stale to the note Holders
at all times at par, as every bank shall be
long to the State that it is in, and not to in
dividuals nor corporations of any kind in
this country nor any other. And every
bank refusing to pay specie when demand
ed shall forfeit its charter. This par busi
w ss will put an end to brokerage and
loss of citizens by discount.
tfrt. S. That each State shall enter into
union and agreement, that the bank mon
ey of any State shall pass at par in any
State in the Union. Then men won't
want gold and silver only for change, as
bank bills will answer their purpose, wuh
more convenience, when the faith of eaeii
state is pledged for them.
slrt. 9. No bill shall be emitted tor a
less denomination than ten dollars, and nev
er loan out more than two for one of their
gold ami silver stock, and payable in nine
ty days in the notes of the bank of ihe
same State, or any other State, since the
faith of all the States shall be pledged for
payment of their notes to the holders.
This will put an end to bank fighting.

be paid a suitable compensation for their
services out of the income of the bank; ihe
balance for the treasury, after paying all
officers. All defaulters punished as felo-nv.

existing constitutions to chuter any bank,

people should not let legislative bodies

2nd. The people, and not Congress, is

tional power to charter a national bank as
a fiscal agent, as we have the same right to
alter and make a constitution, as the gen
eration gone before us. And then, and
not until then, this is the plan thereof, sub
mitted by me to the people to think upon.
PLAN OF A HANK.
Article 1. That, the 1 legislatures of the
several States and Territories should ascer
tain as nigh as may be, the amount of bank
capital sufficient for the wants of each State
and Territory.
J2rt. 2. That Congress mould ascertain
lo the best of iheir knowledge ihe amount
of bank capital sufficient as a fiscal agent
for all the wants of Government.
. L vn3l amount oe what it
would, say one million or five hundred
millions, no matter.

wm. ,. . j,,, iiii-M- uuis oi amount arp
made out in the aggregate, by the States
anu congress, then let each Slate and
Congress come forward and subscribe for
their respective amounts of slock
Art. 5. No' individual, in no State or
Territory, or foreign country, shall be en-
uuea to take any stock in this Bank. It
shall be done alone by the States and Con
grcss, and each State or Territory and Con-
ler lor the next lour years, for thou hast
put the Whigs to the blush and shame, and
made democrats shout for joy. And 1
think now an opossom's tail is worth as
much as a coon tail. God was in all this,
in taking away Harrison lo bring him to
the chur, to quiet the nation and nive her
a little rest, and deliver groaning and fear
ing democrats, weeping around the pole
ol liberty, that all was gone; and preven
ting congress from usurped power over the
rights ol the States, and choking and stop
ping the monster's mouth with the consti
tution, that would have swallowed up ma
ny State banks in little time into its yawn
ing 111,11V, and never said enough.
And 1 will now, George, bid you odieu,
perhaps with my pen forever; unless 1 see
my country's rights invaded. And 1 will
now preach Ihe funeral of this National
Hank in a few words. Democrats, the
monster is dead, now cheerfully move
ahead, for God is for this country I plain
ly see. Then undaunted contend for civil
and leligious liberty; for Tyler, David
like, with constitutional aim has wielded
well his veto stone, and beat out the giant's
brain. So mote it ever be, to eternity.
