lion was In si made he was at some loss to determine how to vote, but on relection he had come to the conclusion to

vote against the amendment. He brief

ly g ne the reasons upon w hich his vote

would be lounded, and concluded bv

saving that a the money proposed to be borrowed would be the people's mo

ney, lor whicu their credit would be pledged, it was but right that they should be accommodated with as little trouble to themselves as possible. The branches should be located with a view to the common benefit, fcc. Mr. Dunn repelled the idea that the committee by which the bill was reported were determined to put down every amendment not coming from themselves. He defended the motives of the com

mittee, said they were as distrustful of

their ability as any members could be, and that their great anxiety was to shape the bill so that it might meet the views of the House and of the country, and produce the desired benefits. He had not raised the war cry a had been alleged, and he would not object (o beneficial amendments from anv quaiter. The districts were arranged, as had been observed, according to the bill which last year received the sanction of the house of representatives. In relation to the number of branches he said it might be possible that the bill may pass if the amendment prevail, but he was candid in saying that he did not believe it. He spoke at large in ftvor of the fectiun as it stands and against the amendment; and replied to the arguments of the various gentleman who favored ttic amendment. He concluded by saying that he doubted not those who favor the amendment were sincere, but he assured them that when they come to settle the details of the bill on their plan they would find much greater difficulty than they were aware of. The arrangement of the districts of this bill had been a matter of great labor, and the committee had submitted the best plan they could devise; and he hoped it would be treated w ith candor, and

that amendments would not be made without due reflection. Mr. Smith spoke at length in favor of the amendment. The principal objection in the minds of the people w here he lived to the bill of the last session was the number of branches. He felt

himself therefore in some measure instructed to vole against so large a num-

oer ot Branches. Ihe principal argu-

HOUSI. OF R E PR 1 IS E N T A T I V ES. rain v, Jan. 3. STATE BANK. At two o'ci'.t k the committee of the whole resumed the subject. H e did not leach the house tiil a few minutes after its meeting. We understand th.it Mr. Kelso withdrew hi amendmcnt; and when we took our seat Mr. Evans wa, replying to Mr. Fairman. He spoke with considerable earnestness i:i favor of reducing the number e.f blanches. He contended that the adoption t!f amendment reducing the number to live would add strength to the bill, and iut tvase the; probability oT its passage. He argued that any m unber wlio would vote for a bill providing for t.vt branches would vote for one proidi:sg but for five, and there were doubtless some who would support the bill if nmended who will oppose it It not amended. The expense of managing ten he contended would exceed that of managing the in a much greater proportion than the benefit of the former would exceed that of the latter. Mr. Fairman implied. He alluded to the bill of list session, and did not wonder that in reference to that bill its friends even were, willing to reduce the number of branches, but contended that the same rea-ou did not urge the reduction in this bill. He argued that this bill was so arranged that the large number made it more secure. He contended that all parts of the state should

he act ommodated, and that in proportion a the number of branches shall be diminished the amount of public benefit will h i curtailed. Mr. Wallacespokeagau.st the amendment somewhat at length. He gave the views of the 'nmmitlcc in providing for ten branches, and arranging the dirtricts. In reference to the. districts he said they were just as they stood in the bill which passed la-l wintfr. So far as the county which he in part represented was concerned it would per

haps be belter that the amendment should prevail. The capital of the branches he said w as not sufiit ient to meet the wants of Madison and the contiguous country, but he was willing to yield something for the sake of the general convenience. He could have no fears that the reduction of the number of branches would jeopard the prospect of Madison for a branch; for in either

event the commercial importance of

that place would doubtless secure it a

branch. He said that the friends of the

Bank were not, as had been alleged,

pposcd to any amendment w hich might be otfered. If amendments calculated to improve the bill should be proposed he would support them, but he must be satisfied of their favorable tendency before he could consent to derange the bill. He concluded by calling upon the fiiends of the bill to consider the. consequences of the adoption of -the proposed amendment.

Mr. Bigger said he had voted against the rejection of the hill, because, be

lieving a majoiity of the house were in favor of the measure, he did not w ish to treat the bill go unceremoniously. He should mott probably vote against the bill, but in reference to the amendments he should vote conscientiously. If the bill must pass he wished it to be as well guarded as possible, and to be

as ueful as possible to the people. The

war cry had been sounded by the gen

tleman from Dearborn, and it appeared

" thnnch all amnimn1 wr to he

draw a distinction between a Branch w inding up and breaking.

Mr. Thomson took a general view of

the rise, progress and present condition of our country. He spoke of the high degree of prosperity to which the country had risen under the operation of the United Stales Bank. The dec roe however had gone forth that the beneficial effects of that institution must cease, that the Bank must be put dow n, and that some other measure must be adopted to create a circulating medium lor the country. He should feel himself forced to vote for a Bank, but he argued earnestly against so great a number of Branches as the bill proposes. He contended that the successful management of Banks was a matter of much more dilliculty than gentleman seemed to imagine, and every part of our state does not atfoid competent and skilful financiers. He concuned with the gen

tleman from Fayette, (Mr. Smiiii,) that a few Banks would do as much iroo.l

and be much more likely to remain in

good credit than a large number, lie repeated that he felt compelled by the course of events to go into the measure, but he deemed it his duty to exert himself to have as judicious a bill as possible. He would prefer but one Bank but would agree to rive. He hoped that the amendment would prevail. Mr. Huntington again spoke against the amendment, and in favor of the section as it stands. He said it was an easy matter to sound the alarm against Banks, but the clamor would apply to all other Banks, fiom the United States Bank down. The remarks of gentlemen would equally apply against all Banks, The only argument in favor of the amendment which had anv force was the additional expense attending the management of ten Banks, but then he contended that the diffusion of the benefits by having ten Banks would more than balance the additional expense consequent upon their management. He disregarded the alarm sounded against the establishment of Banks. The people call for their establishment

a large majority are looking with anxiety to this body for relief from this

source, lianks are in successful opera

tion elsewhere, and he could see no

good reason why the people of Indiana should not participate in the benefits ot

uch institutions. On motion of Mr. Brown, of Tippe

canoe, the committee rose and obtained

Ncvv-Vork is rapidly monopolizing al the domestic trade of tin; nation, un

are inserted in their commercial p;per.

Hundreds upon hundreds appear everv

by this mode, and the seller is doubly

compensated by a legul.ir increase of

The map of a large city, is not more convenient to a stranger, than a commercial journal filled with mercantile, advertisements is to a merchant and trader.

We are perfectly satisfied that one of

the means by which fScw-York contrives to draw within her vortex the crowd of buyers throughout the country, grows out of the system of general advertising adopted by her merchants and importers. The mode in Philadelphia, is altogether different. We seek concealment we dread publicity It is either thought too expensive, or not thought of at all. In consequence thereof, the public both here and elsewhere, are either ignorant of the ai tides in market, or are reduced to the necessity ef a long search to supply their wants.

CENSUS of MALFS and FFMALFS. It is a curious fart that the United States differ from most other civilized countries in having a population of males greater than that of fern lbs. The proportion when list ascertained, was 3,093,053 to 3,C36.C57; exclusive, it is believed, of the army and navy, which would considerably swell the majority. In France, the proportion is the other way, about 16 to 1 7 in favor of females. Several other localities n;ive the follow

ment against reduction was that fewer

people would be accommodated. He

undertook to show that those in the immediate vicinity of the Bank were not the only persons to be benefited.

The great body of the people are not to become borrowers. The great benefit

Banks would be in affording a sound

circulating medium, and not in loaning

money to those in their immediate vi

cinity. He contended that no legislation could circumscribe the circulation of the notes. Money, like water, will

seek its level, and it matters not where

the Banks are located, if the paper is

in good credit its tendency will be out

ward, and it will circulate in everv cor

ner of the Rtate wdiere there is an arti

cle of produce to sell. On the contrary

if the paper be. not in good credit its

tendency will be homeward; and there fore he argued that it was not so mate

rial where the Banks are located as that

the paper should continue in good cre

dit. He was opposed to establishing

districts at all. Let the number of

Banks be designated, and let the Board

of Directors locate them. He believed

that if ten Branches be authorized they

would all go into operation by means of

loans, but the question would next arise

how long will they continue in opera

tion,and what would be the consequence

of their winding up! Let a Branch be

found unprofitable and be compelled to

ADVANTAGES OF ADVERTISING TO MERCHANTS.

0:ic of the remarkable disparities between the commercial habits of New York and Philadelphia, is found in the system of advertising goods and merchandise practised upon by the merchants in either city. A merchant in New-York, wholesale or retail, no matter w hich, has his name constantly in the advertising columns of the newspapers displaying his wares giving full lists of his goods;

and adding reasons calculated to invite purchasers to his store; or at least to

the city. The shipping merchant, the

foreign importer, the dry goods dealer, the grocer, all, without exception, hurry to the newspapers with their daily

their col

umns everv morning with the riches,

wealth, and ingenuity of both hemis-

here?.

These advertisements serve the same

general purposes as the signs above

their doors, the display of goods at

their window s, the hanging forth at their doors of specimens, or the filling up

the side w ay with boxes and bundles, directed to almost every city, town or

hamlet, north, south or west. A card

in the daily newspaper, an advertise

ment every day in the morning journal

is as necessary as the very store which

is hired for the transaction of business

Newspapers become in some measure,

by this way, a branch of the commer

cial system ot a large city, i ney are

vast saving machines to traders. Instead

of running round town, wearing out

shoes and spirits, hunting out a

place to make purchases in, the coun

try buyer sits quietly down, picks up

the morning paper ; and finds a display

of the whole merchandise of New York

within the compass of a sheet of paper.

The above estimate for Great Britain

those classes the majority of females is

The explanation of litis difference noted

between our country and others is simply that the waste of life by war, unhealthy or illegal employ ments, is less here than abroad added to the fact

that a majority of the emigrants to this country are males. Hence there is a

majority of the latter also in the new Stales, and a majority of females in the old. There are more of the former

born, all over the world, than of the latter. More males die in childhood.
