that all the fiscal operations
of this CJbvernraentjwere not only carried
on for nothingXtj the late United States
Bank, but that it ! paid besides to tfie
Treasury, for iU charter, a million and
a half of dollars. By whatloic Mr.
Calhoun can reconcile it to himself to
say, that he has ; always believed that
Congress had no power under the Con
Ktiiuiion to charter a National Bank, and

Bat for the accession "of Mr. Calhoun to
the Waning fortunes of Martin Van Bureu,
no one now doubts that he would have
been in a minority in Congress as he as
iu redly is with the. nation.. This assist
tince is not afforded, say his adherents,
rom anyhope of rienard from the present
Administration, nor wijjiout a deep toa
thing at the company, in which he thus
suddenly finds himself. It isi rendered,
say they, from patriotic motives in pur
suance of fixed and previously declared
principles- -the principles of the partyt
with whichiie lias always acted. Of his
motives for this co-operation we cannot
judge. Every day's experience proves to
u that there is no matter in wfejeh. men
are so apt to be mistaken as when they
undertake to judge the secret workings
of each others heart. Many considera-4
tious incline us to believe that Mr. Ca
jioun is sincerely patriotic in his course.
JJut that he is inconsistent in supporting
this Treasury system and in. now de
nouncing the United States Bank: that
lie is wrong in saying these are the prin
ciples of the State rights party that he

last speech in behalf of this new favorite,

cannot well be otherwise than that the
proposed law would greatly ;3trenth.en

Revenue must yield fjpr several, years j to
fume at least 0 millions of dollars. This
vast sum, if we understand the system, is
to go into the hands of the To or 80 Cus
toin-house officers of the two or. three
dozen land officers and of the superin
tendents of the four mini 8. This system
proposes that this amount shall after
lew years hie receivable in Gold & Silver,
or in Treasury notes which the Executive
shall issue. These hundred Treasurers

either of which cases the specie will be
still in- the hands of these functionaries.
What a temptation is here afforded, to
these Individuals to abuse their trust ?
Here they have, the money (totally use
less to the world) locked up in their
vaults : They may. not; be called on for
years. My "political friend, says one
of these just before an election calls op

United States in Congress Assembled t
The memorial of the undersigned citizens of the
County of , in the State of North Carolina,
respectfully represent, that the people of this scc-
Uon of the State are grievously oppressed with the
evils of a depreciated currency. "I'hey can get no
money that will answer their purposses abroad,
and trom abroad they can get no money that they
can' use at home. They believe, it the dutv of
Congress to provide for the nation a currency
that shall, at all times, and in all places, be
equal to gold and silver. This has heretofore been
done by means of a National Bank : While ever it
has existed, we have had good' money : wheuever
1 1 has ceased to exist, our money has become bad

confidence in. We," therefore, hope and pray, that
