Under these impressions, t agree with Gen.
Jackson, in the opinion expressed in one of his
messages to Congress, from which 1 mate tnc following extract: "Thai a Bunk of the UniIxl Slates, competent lo all the duties which may b; required by the Government, might be organized as not to in fringe on vur delegated pozcers, or thr. reserved rights of the Slates. I do not entertain a doubt" Hut the period for rc-char-tering the old institution has passed, as Pennsylvania has wisely taken care to appropriate to herself the benefit of its large capital. The question then, for me to answer, is, whether, under the circumstances you state, if elected to the office of President, I would, ifit were clearly ascertained (hat the public interest in eolation to the collection and disbursement of (lie revenue would materially suffer without one and there were unequivocal manifestations in its favor. I think, however, the experiment should be fairly tried, to
ascertain whether the financial operations of
the Government cannot be as well carried on without the aid of a national bank. If it is not necessary fur that purpose, it does not appear to me that one can be constitutionally chartered. There is no construction which lean give the Constitution. which would authorize it, on the ground of affording facilities to commerce. The measure, if adopted, must have for its object the carrying into effect
(faciliting at least the exercise of) some one of
the powers positively granted to the General Government. f others flow from it, producing equal or greater advantages to the nation, so much ihe better: but these cannot be made the ground for justifying a recourse to it. The excitement whiehhas been produced by the Bank question, the number and respectability of those who deny the right of Congress to charter one. strongly recommended the course above suggested.

rightfully be taken from them. Experience had shown (hat in large assemblies these rights were not always respected. It would be in vain they should be enumerated, and respect enjoined in the Constitution. A popular assembly, under the influence of that spirit of parly which is always discoverable in a greater or less degree in all republics, might, and would, as it was believed, sometimes disregard them. To guard against this danger, and secure the rights of this, individual, the expedient of creating a department independent of the others, and amenable only to

Information should always be frankly given, and recommendations upon such matters as comes more immediately underhis cognizance than theirs. But there it should end. If he should undertake to prepare the business of legislation for the action of Congress, or to assume the character of code maker for the nation, the personal interest which he will take in the success of his measures will nc-
totaiiy incapacitate him from performing the
cart ol that impartial umpire, which is the
character that I have supposed the Constitu
tion intends him to assume, when the acts passed by the Legislature are submitted to his decision. do not think it by any means necessary that he should take the lead as a reformer, even when reformation is, in his opinion, necessary. Reformers will never be wanting when it is well understood that the
power which wields the whole patronage of
the nation will not oppose the rciormation. I have (he honor to be, with great consideration and respect, sir, your humble servant. W. II. HARRISON. To the Hon. Siierrod Wimjasis.

uncii Hgamsi any palpable violation of the Constitution, to the injury of individuals, or a
mmon party, hutit was still possible for a wilful and excited majority to enact laws of the greatest injustice and" tyranny, without violating the letter of their charter. And this 1 take to be the orign of the veto power, as well in the Slate Governments as that of the United States. Itappears tohave been the intention to create an umpire between the contending factions which had existed, it was believed, and would continue to exist. If there was any propriety in adopting the principle in the Government of a
ouue, an the reasons in favor of it existed in a tenfold degree for incorporating it in (hat of the Lulled States. The operations of the
laucr, extending over an immense tract of
country, embracing the products of almost every clime, and that country divided into a number of separate Governments, in many respects independent of each other and of the common federal head, left but little hope that they could always b carried on in harmony. It could not be doubted that the sectional interest would at times predominate in the bosoms of the immediate representatives, of the People and the Stales, and combinations (ormed, destructive to the public good, or un
just anu oppressive to a minority. Where

The attempt to expunge a part of their Journal, now making in the Senate of the United States, I am satisfied could never have been made but in a period of the highest party excitement, when the voice of reason and generous feeling is stilled by long protracted and bitter controversy. Iu relation to the exercise of the veto
power by ihe President, there is, I think;
an important difference iu opinion between the present Chief Magistrate and myself. I express tltis opinion with les-s diffidence, because I belive mine is in strict accordance with those ofall the previous Presdents to Gen. Jackson. The veto power, or the control of the Executive over the enactment of laws bv the Le
gislative body, was not unknown in the Uni
ted States previous to the formation of the present Federal Constitution. It does not appear, however, tohave been in much favor.
The principle was to be found iu but three of
mediate Constitutions; and in but one of
them (.Massachusetts) was the Executive power lodged iu the hands of a single Chief Mac
istrate. One oilier State (South C
had, indeed, not only adopted this principle', but had given its single Executive M:irUiP1,to
an absolute negativ c upon acts of the Legisla
ture, in an other instances it had been
qu.iuueu negative, like that of the United
oi.iu.-s. ine peeople of South Carolina, seem, however, not to have been lonrr nle:,Se,l
with this investment of power in their Governor, as it lasted but two years; having bcen adopted in 1,(,, and repealed in 1778, from which time the acts of the Legislature of that State.have been entirely (reed from Executive control. Since the adoption of the Constitution of the United States, the veto principle has been adopted by several other states and until very recently, it scemej to be rapidly growing mto favor.

If the opinion I have given of the motives of
me namers oi the Constitution, in trivin"- the
eio power io the I'resident, is correct, it follows that they never could have expected, he who constitutes the umpire between contending factions should ever identify himself with the interests of one of them, and voluntarily razee himself from the proud eminence of leader of a nation to that of a party . I can eassily conceive the existence of a state of things ly which the Chief Magistrate of a state
may nc lorced to act upon party' principles; but such a course is entirely opposed to all the obligations which Constitution imposes on a President of (he U. S. The immense influence he possesses will always give to party the preponderance, and the "very circumstance of its being an Executive party will be the came of infusing more bitterness and vindictive feelings in these domestic contests. Under these circumstances the qualified veto given by the Constitution may, if the I resident should Uiink proper to change i( character, become as absolute in practice as that possessed by the Kings of England and I ranee. 1 rom the ;reat variety of local interests acting upon the members of the two Houses of Congress, and from keeping all the individuals of a large party under the control ol party discipline, laws will often be passed by small majorities adverse to the interests of the dominant party; but if the President should

iir. Kent moved to take up the bill to extend
the charters of certain banks in the District of
Columbia. The question being on the third reading,
iUr. nenton opposed this motion, and moved ta
lay the bill on the table; which was negatived He then moved to postpone the bill, and make it the ord';r for Saturday. Negatived, lie then asked the reading of the report, when, on motion of Mr. Hubbard, the Senate adjourned. In ihe House, the Post Office Bill was under consideration. Amotion was made to re-commit in order to raise the salaries of Post Masters in large cilies or eUa strike out the forty-fifth and sixth sections, putting a stop to the present extortionate practice of charging men of business four or five dollars each for 'a box' for their letters. (The revenue of our Post Master from this source alone must be something like .$?.(H!(I per annum.) The attempt was a successful one; the Previous Quest-ion was carried G7 to 57 ;nd the bill passed without a division. 'I he remainder of the day was consumed in a debate in Committee of the Whole on the annual Indian Appropriation Bill. Several amendments were carried. Adjourned. In Senate on Friday June Td, a bill to reorgan
ize me general land Office was considered, reported and engrossed. A bill to audit and settle the claims of Gen. Ripley against the Government
was introduced and advocated by Mr. Hubbard,
reau i ice, ana reierred to the Committee on Pensions. The bill to extend the charters of certain Banks in the District of Columbia was taken up. Messrs. Benton and Ni'es opposed and Messrs. Kent and
.,.. s v.. ,. .iniitiieo us nnni passage. It was finally laid aside, to enable Mr. Wright, from the
"e.ect Committee on the bill to regulate the Deposite of Public Moneys, to report a substitute, which had received the sanction of that Commit tec, on some points unanimously, on others bv a bare majority; the amendments ware ordered to" be printed. Mr. ebster took occasion to contradict most positively a statement in the Globe of this morning, that he as Chairman of the Committee on Finance holds back the bill providing for tho conversion of the Governme.it stock in the old U. S. Dank money. He stated, in refutation, that tho bill in question was referred to the Finance Committee on the 14th of April, and was actually reported from that Committee on the fist, and now

ing a uay fur tho termination of the present session ol Congress Lint. Yes 105, ISays 72 (not two thirds.) The Pea Patch hill was further debated and laid on the table: 91 to fc7.
Mr. Cambreleng moved a suspension of the rules
in favor of the Fortification Bill. Various amend
ments were offered to include other ills, but un
successfully. The original motion uaa also de
feated: leas Co, Aays fcO not two-thirds. The
remainder of the dy was devoted to private bills.
Adjourned. In Senate, on Monday, June Oth, Mr. Walker's
bill to extend the timo lor receiving proof on Pre
emption Land Claims came up. Mr. Hwir.g of
Ohio moved its indefinite postponement, on the ground that it afforded too great encouragement to squatters. He stated that speculators often resorted to the plan of putting families on valuable tracts
before they were surveyed, thus establishing pre
emption claims most unjustly and to the detri
ment of the public interest. The motion failed: Yens 18, Navs 21. The bill was then variously
amended, and engrossed for a third reading: Yeas 21. Nays 18.
The final question on the District Banks bill was
deferred to give Mr. Benton time to speak far
ther against it, and the Senate went into Executive business. Adjourned.
In the IIovsK, a motion to suspend in favor of
the join', resolution from the Senate fixing on a day for adjournment, was lost: Yeas 00; Nays 6:1.
INext followed "some sparring between Messrs.
Thomas and Jenifer of Maryland, on the subject of the resolutions from the Legislature of thnt
State in favor of a distribution of the proceeds of Public Lands, as also against the Expunging Resolutions. Nothing grew out of it.
A great number of petitions asking for Pensions
also of remonstrance orainst the admission of
Arkansas as a Slave State were presented.
On motion of 3Ir. Sevier; the bill for the settlement of the Ohio and Michigan Boundary, and the bills for the admission of Michigan and Arkansas
