REMARKS OF Mr. LANE, ; OF INDIANA, . On the Vein Message of the President, returning with the Fiscal Corporation Bill.

House of Representatives, September 10, 1841. Mr. LANE, of Indiana, lemnrked that he had said nothing; on the subject of a bank at the present session, but now the time had come when it would be unbecoming in him to remain silent. To do so, he would be untrue to himself, untrue to those who had confided their interests to his hands, untrue to the Constitution and to the Government under which he lived. The gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Gilmer; had commenced his speech this morning by expressing his hope that a-seene such as they had witnessed on that floor might never be enacted again. What! had it come to this, that, they were to be deemed wanting in respect to the President if they spoke their sentiments freely and candidly of liiml Now, he could never endorse such a doctrine as this, and he trusted that Congress would not do it, in order to shield the President from the wide and overwhelming outbreak of public indignation which awaited him from one end of the country to the other. Yes, we were told that we should be moderate, that we should speak in terms of mildness and conciliation, and not evince the slightest displeasure or disapprobation at tho most extraordinary course wliich he had taken,

Now, he (Mr. L.) would tell gentlemen that they might cry "peacf," "peace," but there would be no peace, This nation would instantly be convulsed to

its very centre; and the "slow, untnoving finger of

scorn, whether in high places or low places, would be pointed at the President for his treachery to the

nation and to the Whig party that elected him. This

might be regarded as strong language, and he admit

ted it was, but it was the language of truth and of

just indignation. He had spoken of John Tyler, as a public man, in such terms as he and every one else

had a right to speak, under toe strong provocation he had given to all who detested perfidy and baseness, whether in private or public life.

The gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Gilmer) has told us (continued Mr. L.) that if Mr. Tyler had, at

the commencement of this session, given in his adhe

sion to Mr. Clay, all would have been well that wc

should have had no difficulty, and that the question of the succession has had much to do with our pre

sent difficulties. Mr. Clay's friends, so far as I know, have not acted with any view to the succes

sion; we are content to leave that matter to the reo

pie, and in 2ood time thev will attend to it. We hear

much of personal rivalry. Who, I ask, ever dreamed

of John Tyler's being a rival of Henry Clay The

idea is preposterous. Compare John Jyler to Henry Clay! How, and in what particular are they alike? Sir, John Tyler resembles Henry Clay as the lowliest barn-yard fowl resembles the proud bird of Jove, the messenger of the gods, when he plumes his wing for the clear upper sky, and bathes his plumage in the summer cloud. Gentlemen mny speak of Henry Clay in connexion with the title of legislative dictator, but they do not affect the well-earned reputation of that brightest, noblest, and purest of living patriots and statesmen. He needs uo eulogy from me r defence before the nation. During the whole of this session his conduct has been any thing rather than dictatorial. He has steadily pursued a course of po

licy in strict accordance with his known principles

and opinions, in furtherance of the wishes of ninetenths of the Whig party; and if, in this great struggle, he is doomed to fall, he will fall a martyr to principles which are as true and unchanging and eternal as the attributes of God; he will fall covered by the ruins of that Constitution which his whole life has been devoted to preserve and defend and what prouder monument could mark his resting place? His name is associated with the holiest recollections of American history. You, sir, remember the Missouri questionyou remember the storm of nullification, and his agency in the settlement of those questions; you remember his noble defence of liberty in the South American republics; and when Greece appealed to the sympathies offree, civilized man throughout the whole world, he held out to her the first hind of welcome his was the first voice of encouragement raised in the American Congress in behalf of suffering Greece; and the redeemed Greek now mingles the name of Clay with the name of Marco Bozarris in his national battle-cry. Sir, whenever the name of Henry Clay is mentioned in connexion with the Presidency of the United Stales, he will be the candidate not of a

factious clique, but of the great Whig party the tri

umphant and ever-glorious Whig party ot 1S4U. Mr. L. said men might change, party might change, but that there was no change in the principles upon which the great Whig party came into power; and he would assert that one of the great measures of policy advocated at the recent Presidential canvass, at least in his own district, was, "Bank or no Bank." And notwithstanding that nine-tenths of the Whig party are in favor of the establishment of a National Bank, as he had already remarked, President Tyler had chosen to veto both the bills, to effect so desirable an ob

ject. John Tyler, it seemed, was dispospd to estab

lish the one-man Orovernment in tne mo9t odious form. ' Whom had he counselled with? He (Mr. L.) insinuated nothing; he made the charge that John Tyler desired to establish the one-man principle in this Government; and he made this charge, based upon the fact that not one of his confidential advisers, not one of his Cabinet, ever saw the message he sent to this Honse yesterday until they saw it here. What, he (Mr. L.) would ask, would the American People think of the conduct of President Tyler, who had declined to consult with his constitutional advisers on so great and important a question as this was, and yet permitted an individual who sat in this Hall to see what the contents of the message were, a portion of which had actually appeared in the New York Herald three or four days before the message was delivered to this House! Now, he would not say that the letter-writer wrote the message, because God knew it would add nothing to the gentleman's reputation. He repeated, what he understood to be the fact, that not one, even the humblest, of President Tyler's Cabinet ever saw the Message until it was read in this House! This was a most extraordinary course of proceeding one without a parallel in the history of the Government, and one that reflected any thing but credit on a man who could treat his constitutional advisers with such disrespect and indifference constitutional advisers, too, many of whom were very highly distinguished for their genius, their learning, and their ardent patriotism, and before whom John Tyler himself would stand abashed, as in the presence of su

perior intelligences. That Cabinet was composed of

some ot the most able and talented men of the great Whig party, and yet they were to be treated in this cool and contemptuous manner by a man "dressed in a little brief authority," and who accidentally, and unfortunately for thecountrv, became President of the

United States. John Tyler was fastened on to the tail of the Whig ticket, like a small boat to the stern of a gallant ship, as he might make the contrast as in reference to the lamented Harrison. Who, he would

inquire, knew any thing at that time of John Tyler's .

principles being contrary to those ot the Whig party: And yet now he sets up his opinions in opposition tothose who elevated him to power. He said in his Message that this question of a Bank was the most embarrassing one that had come before him since his installation into office that it was the greatest difficulty he had. Yes, it. was a difficulty over which John Tyler would never get. Of Mr. Tyler, privately, he knew nothing, and had no desire to know any thing; but, acting in his official capacity, he (Mr. L.) knew more than he could have wished to know. He would not name that man in connexion with Arnold, Burr, and Hull, but would leave it to others to say to the country to declare, whether or not the name of "John Tyler" ought not to be added to the list, for having thwarted the wishes and violated the principles of the Whig party, who placed him in power. He (Mr. Lane) could not have allowed the present opportunity to pass by without saying something on this important subject. With regard to what had been said by hi colleague, (Mr. Proffit,) he would only say that no doubt that gentleman represented his constituents as honestly as he (Mr. L.) did his own. However, the people must determine as to who was rightt and who was wrong. Mr. L., after having given a history of what, has taken place at the present session in relation to the establishment of a bank, said that the People believed themselves toiiave been betrayed, and artfully deceived, and that their indignation new no bounds. What right had John Tyler to allow his name to be put on the Whig ticket if he was not a bank man? He (Mr. L ) voted for him under the conviction that he would feel himself bound by the decisions of the Supreme Court. But now the records were searched in order to show that he was not in favor of a bank; and they had been told that when Mr. Clay's nomination was rejected at the Harrisbunr convention John Tyler shed tears! Yes, shed tears! And, after all, it was attempted to be proved that he was not then a Bank man! Did he not retain General Harrison's cabinet And what man of common sense was there but knew that the bank question was to be the first one to be acted upon1 After reading his first message, he (Mr. L.) began to distrust, his devotion to Whig principles.- He thought he had seim in it, lurking under a special guise, something hinting at the exercise of the veto power when the opportunity should occur. Mr. L. next noticed the various objections taken by the President to both the bills which he had vetoed, and commented particularly on the last message. They had passed two bills, supposing that they would meet ali his objections; but he had vetoed Doth of them. And now he asked that Congress might give him three months' grace three months' time for deep and deliberate reflection on this subject! Well, as Congress were about to adjourn, it might be as well to let the question rest till the next session; but his firm conviction was, that, so long as John Tyler was President of the United States, the country would get not'iing approximating to a bank, though it might possibly get a sub-Treasury, with "the specie clause in it." John Tyler was President by accident and chance; but he might rely upon it that, in four years hence, they would put him out, though not by chance. He had spoken of his great respect for the popular will. Now he (Mr. Lane) only wished it had been expressed more substantially than by means of vetoes, and that he had taken some more acceptable mode of showing his devotion to the Constitution and to the welfare of the People. He (Mr. L.) endorsed every word of the very excellent speech of the gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Botts) on the Veto Message. He expressed, on reflection, his full concurrence in what had fallen from the gentleman from Tennessee, although he had dissented from him at the time. With respect to the President, he did not know that he had spoken of him in a more severe and caustic manner than he deserved, and when he (Mr. L) returned to his constituents he would tell them that John Tyler was no longer an exponent of Whig principles: that he had trampled them under foot, and acted basely and treacherously to the Whig party. Who, he should like to know, would, after this, look upon John Tyler as an exponent of Whig principles? He, for one, would not. He (Mr. L.) had, in making these few remarks, en

deavored to discharge his duty to himself, to his con

stituents, and to the country. There might be a time when moderation ceased to be a viriue, and when it would be criminal to withhold the expression of a man's honest and just indignation at an act which would be regarded as one of the greatest curses in

the history of our country.
