Poi»uEXTER,at the head of the Committee on Public Lands, who, I doubt not, will sec justice done to the public. As to stock jobbing, this new arrangement will open a 5cld which lioth•child himslfmny envy. It has been found hard work—very hard, no doubt—by the jobbers in stock who have been engaged in attempts to raise or depress the price of United States Bank stock but no work will be more easy than to raise or depress the price of the stock of the selected banks, at the pleasure of the Kxecutivc. Nothing more will be required than lg give or withhold deposites—to draw, from drawing warrants—to pamper tfremat one time,and to starve them at ono^fcer. Those who would be in the secret, and lit* woknow when to sell, would have th

ASM of realizing, dealing in the stocks, Wcv fortune they might please. *$0 lent asllie question one between a Dank the United .States incorporated by Congress, that system of banks which ha* been creat "ad by the wiliol the Executive, it is an insult io the understanding to discourse on the pcrtflctous tendency and constitutionality of ihe

Sauk of the 1'iiited States. To bring up that ffCuestion fairly and Jcgilimntclv, you must go !nc step farther—you must divorce the Govern-

and the banking system. You must reft iusn all connexion with Banks. ou must neititer receive nor pny away bank notes you must go bark to the old system of the strong box, nnd of gold and silver. If you have aright to receive bank notes at all—to treat them as money by receiving them in your dues, or pay them away to creditors, you have a right to -create a bank. ,Vhatever the Government recwves and treats'as money, is money and if it be monev, then they have the right, under the

Constitution, to do it. Nay, they are bound by a high obligation to adopt the most efficient means, according to the nature of that which thev have recognised as money to give it the utmost stability and uniformity of value. And Ifttbein the shape of bank notes, the most efficient means of giving

receiving

the pqblic money and having

converted, by being received every

to all intents and purpo­

ses^ bank of the United States—the Executive bank of the United States, as distinguished from that Congress. However it might fail to erform satisfactorily the useful functions of the p* Baiik of the United States, as incorporated by law, it would dutstrip it—far outstrip it—in all its dangerous qualities, in extending the power, It--the influence, and the corruption of the Governroent. It was impossible to conceive any institution more admirably calculated to advance these objects. Not only the selected bat.kf, but Jhe

banking institutions of the

country, and with it the entire money power, /or the purpose of speculation, and corruption, would be placcd under the control of the Exe .iUtive A svitem of menaces and promises is^iU be established—of menace to the banks in posseffinn of the deposites, but which might not bc^ntirely substrvient to Executive views and of promise of future favors to those who

not as 'et enjoy its favors. Between the two, the banks would befell without influence, honor, or honestly and a system of speculation p*and stock-jobbing would commcncv, unequalled in the annals of our country. I fear the means which h*ve*bccn put into the hands of the minions of power by the removal of the depostea,and placing them in the vaults of dependant fcanki, have extended their cupidit) to the pub-lic-Jands, particularly in the south-west and at to this we must attribute the recent phenoia in th:»t quarter! iiffincns»c and valuable imis of land sold at short notice—snles fraudlihJftf postponed to aid the speculators! with whidbkiU am not misinformed, a name not unknot to this body (Gwinn) has performed a prominent part.

wer of otcress, of the

Senator from Kentucky (Mr. Cwt) said, rvtlv, and let me add, philosophically, that we ire "in the midst of a revolution. Yes, the w^gextsfrnrc of a free tovrmment rests on the jSpLr

distrib ute*

earf

Ihe distribution of the

orgamxOfc* of

to oe^trov this 'distribution, and thereby concentrate power in any of one of the departments is to effect afievolution but,wh»l«i MfM with the Senator, that w# are in the midst of a revolution. 1 cannot agree with him to the time at which it cftamience** oc the nt to which it has progressed. Looking to

&

days previousto the meeti Congress. I, wild Mr. CI. take a range, and date it from an early period. Besides the distribution among the department# of the General Government, there belongs to our system another, and a far more important division or distribution of power, that between the States aid the General Government—the reserved and

delegated rights, tbe maintenance of which it still more essential to the preservation of our institutions. Taking this wide review of our political systeiit, the revf&Btion in the midst *f which we are, began, not as supposed by the Senator from Kcntneky, fboitly before the commen enl ofthe present session, but many year's ago, with the commencement of the restrictive system and terminated its first stage with the passage of the force bill of tbe last session, which absorbed all the rights and sovereignty of the States, and consolidat ed them in this Government. Whilst this pj-ocess

WHS

The Senator from Kentucky, in con nection with this part of his discussion, read a striking passage from one of the most pleasing and7instructive writers, in any language, (Plutarch) the description of Caesar forcing himself, sword in hand, into the treasury-of the Roman Commonwealth. We are at the same stage of our political revolution, and the analogy between the two cases is complete, varied only by the character of the actors and the circumstances of the limes. This was a case of an intrepid and bold warrior, as an open plunderer, seizing forcibly the treasury of the country, which in that Republic, as well as ours, was confined to the custody of the legislative department of the Government. The actors in our case are of a different caracter—artful cunning and corrupt pliticians, and not fearless wariiors. They have entered the treasury, not sword in hand, as public plunderers, but with the false keys of sophistry, as pilfeiers, under the silence of midnight. The motive and object are the same, varied in like manner, by character, and circumstances. "With money 1 will get men, and with men, mo* env," was the maxim of the Roman plunderers/ With money we all get partisan?, with partisans votes, nnd with votes, money, is the maxim of our public pilferers. With men and money, Caesar struck down Roman liberty, at the fat»»l battle of Phillippi, ncvei to rise again from which disastrous hour, all the powers of (he Roman Republic were consolidated in the person of Caesar, and perpetuated in his line.— With money and corrupt partisans, a great effort ts now racing to choke and stifle the voice of American liberty, through all its natural organs, by corrupting the press by overawing theotherdepartments and finally, by setting up a new and polluted organ, composed of office holders and corrupt partizans under the name of a national convention, which, counterfeiting the voice of the people, will, if not resisted, in their name, dictate the succession when the deed will be done—the revolution be completed—and all the powers of ou* Republic, in like manner, be consolidated in the President, and perpetuated by his dictation.

The Senator from Kentucky, (Mr. C.) anticipates with confidence that the small party who were denounced at the last session, as traitors and disunionists, will be found, on this trying occasion, standing in the front rank, and manfully resisting the advance of despotic power. ), said lMr. CALHOUN, heard the anticipation with pleasure, not on account of the compliment which it implied, but the evidence which it affords th.it the cloud which has been so industriously thrown over the charactei and motives of that small, but patriotic party, begins to be dissipated. The Senator hazarded nothing in the prediction. That party is the determined, the fixed, and sworn enemy to usurpation, comc Irom what qnnrter and under what form it may—whether from the Executive, upon the other departments of this Government, or from this government on the sovereignty and rights of the States.— The resolution and fortitude with which it maintained its position, at the last session, under so many difficulties and dangers, in defence of the State against the encroachments of tHc General Govern­

ment,

powers of tbe General. adjustment, and disposed Legislative, Executive,! compromise. Now, 1

furnished evidence, not to be mistaken, that that parly In the present momentous stru&gle,would be foumjfarrayed in defence of the rights of Congress against the encroachments of the £xccutivc.— And let me tell the Senator from Kentucky, said Mr. C., that if the present struggle against Executive usurpation be successful, it wilt be awing to the success, wilh which we, the nallifiers—I aro not ashamed ofthe word—maintained the rights ofthe States against the encroachment of the General Government at the last ses«ion» very few words *»H place this point beyond controversy. To tlie interposition o! the State of South Carolina, we are indebted for the adjustment of the tariff question without it, all the influence ol the Senator from KeiXucky, with the ma* ufacturing interest, great as it is, deservedly as it ought to be, would hnve been wholly i«compelent,i fb« had even thought

proper to exert it, to adjust the question. The attempt would h*ve prostrated him. and those who acted with him, and not the system. It was the separate action «f the Slate that gave hl«a the place to •land upon cteated the necessity for Ihe the miads of all put the solemn

Let it not be said, that this is the result of accident ——o£ an unforeseen contingency. It Was clearly perceived, and upenly stated, that no successful resistance could be made to4he corruption and iucroacbment of the

going on, of absorbing the re-

sdtved powers of tke States, on the part of the General Government, another commenced, of concentrating,in the Executive, the powers of the other two, the Legislative and Judicial Departments of the Government, whic+r^Constitotes the second stage of the revolution, in which we have advanced almost to the termination.

Executive? while the tariff question remained open—while it separated the north from the south, and wasted the energy of the honest and patiotic portions of the community, against each other, the joint effort of which is indispensably necessary to expel those from authority, who are converting the entire powers of Government into a corrupt electioneering machine and that, without separate State interposition, the adjustment was impossible. The truth of lh» position rests not upon the accidental state of things, but or a profound principle grooving out of the nature of Government and party struggles in a free State. History and reflection teach us, that when great interests come into conflict, and the passions and the prejudices of men are roused, surh struggles, can never be composed by tne influence of any individuals however grent and if there be not, some-where in the system, some high constitutional power, to arrest their progress, and compel the parlies to adjust the difference, they go on till iLljjja, State fills by corruption or violence* 1 will, said Mr. C., venture to add to

the point under consideration, not less true. We are not only indebted to the cause which have stated, for our present strength in this body againtt the present usurpation of.the Executive, but if the adjustment of the tariff had stood alone, as it ought to have done, without the odious bill which accompanied it—if those who led in the compromise had joined the State Right party in their resistance to that unconstitutional measure,and thrown the responsibility Jon its real authors, the administration, their party whould have been so prostrated throughout the entire South, and their power, in consequence, so reduced, that they would not have dared to attempt the present measure or, if they had, they would have been broke and defeated.

Were I, said Mr. C., io select ive case best calculated to illustrate the necessity of resisting usurpation at me very cdfrimencement, and to prove how difiicult it is to resist it in any subsequent stage, if not met at first, I would select this very casc*c What, he asked, is the cause of the present usurpation of power on the part of the Executive.. What the motive?— the temptation, which had induced them to seize on the deposits? What, but the arge surplus revenue—the eight or ten millions in the public Treasury beyond the wants of the Government? And what has put so large an amount of money in the Treasury, when not needed? 1.answer the projective system—that pystcm which graduated duties, not in reference to the wants of the Government, but in reference to the importunities and demands of the manufacturers, and which poured millions of dollars into the Treasury beyond the most profuse demands and even the extravagance of the Government— taken—unlawfully taken, from the pockets of those who honestly made it. I hold that those who make, are entitled to what they make against all the world except the Government and against it, except to the extent of its legitimate and constitutional wants and that, for the Government to take one cent more is robbery. In violation of this sacred principle, Congress first removed the deposits into the public Treasury, fiom the pockets of those who made it, where they were lightfully placed by ail laws, human and divine. The Executive, in his turn following the example, has taken them from that cleposite, and distributed them among favorite and pnrtisnn banks. The meaijs used have been the same in both cases. The Constitution gives to Congress the power to lay duties wilh a view to revenue. This power, without regarding theohject for which it was intended, forgetting that it was a great trust power, necessarily limited by the very nature of such powers, to the subject nnd the object of the trust, was perverted to a use never intended, that of protecting the industry of one portion of the country nt the expense of another? and, under this false interpretation, the money was transferred from its natural and just deposite, the pockets of those who made it, into the'public Treasury, as 1 have slated. In this, too, the Executive followed the example of Congress.

By the magic construction of a few simple' works—"unless otherwise ordered'"— intended to confer on the Secretary of the Treasury a limited power—to give additional security to the public deposits, he lias, in like manner, perverted this power, and made it the instrument by similar sophistry, of drawing the money from the Treasury, and bestowing it, as I have stated, to favorite and partisan Banks. Would to God, said Mr. C», would to God I could reverse the whole of this nefarious opera-" tion, and terminate the controversy by returning ihe money to the pockets of the honest and industrious citiasens hy the sweat of whose brows it has been made with whom jjjy it can be rightfully deposited. ButTs this cannot be done, I mu.-t cohtent myself by giving a vote lo return it to the pnb|ic*Treasury, where it was ordered to be deposited by an act of the Legislature.

There another aspect, said Mr. C. in which this subject may be. viewed. We all remember how early tbe question ofthe surplus revennd began to agitate the country. At a very early period,a Senator from New Jersey, (Mr. IHckerson.) presented his scheme ibr disposing ol it by distributing it amowg tbe Sutet* The first Message of the President reconwnend-

up by a movement oa the part of the Legislature of New York, and believe some of the other States. The public attention was aroused—the scheme scrutinized—its gross unconstitutionality and injustice, and its dangerous tendency, of ab sqrbing the power and existence of the States were clearly perceived and denounced. The denunciation was too deep *to be and the scheme was alaudoned. Wbal|bave we now in lieu of it?

What is the present scheme but a distribution of the surplus revenue? A distribution at the sole will and pleasure of the Executive adistribution to favorite banks and through them, in the shape of discounts nnd loans, to corrupt partizam, as the means of increasing political influence?

We have, said Mr. C., arrived at a fearful crisis, thiags cannot long remain as they ar»v It behoves all who love their country—who have affection for their offspring, or who have any stake in our institutions, to pause and reflect. Confidence is. daily withdrawing from the General Government. Alienation is hourly going oo««J*Tbe&e will necessarily create a state of things inimical to the existence of our institutions, and if not speedily arrested, convulsions must follow, and then •foilo*v» d»ssaUi4.I*»n or despotism when a thick cloud will be thrown over the cause of liberty and the futuie prospects of our

By the arrival of the George Washington, Capt. Hold ridge, the Journal of Commerce, and the New York Standard, have received Londoh paper? to the !23d and Liverpool to the 2Cth November, inclusive. They contain little new? of importance. The chief item of interest is the announcement in the Madrid official paper, that the diplomatic relations of the Spanish Gevernment with Don Miguel had ceased, arid that the Court of Spain, gov would use its best exertions to bring about the pacification of Portugal, by mediating between the belligerent parties. The account of the state of the contending parlies in Spain are unsatisfactory. The French papers ore filled with discttfsions as to the propriety of interference on the part of France in the affairs of Spain.

The coru-spondent of the London Courier, of the 23J, has a letter dated at Lisbon, Nov. 16th, giving an account ofthe destruction by a band of Pedroites. of a number of flour mills in the neighborhood of Santarem. The communication of that place with the surrounding country is still unbroken, and unless an uncommonly large force can be collected to encircle the town, there seems to be little prospect of its capture. ^,TherJc'&cr states that, 4on the lfth inst. the Inhabitants cainc from Aldegallejn, in a great hurry, as the Migueliles were drawing near the town however, they did not etfter it, as they were only in quest of cattle, nnd drove off about 400 head. The Miguelites who took Alcaccr still remain in the neighborhood they did not venture to advance dn St. Ubes, and the gnrrison was now so much increased that they would get a warm reception had they pushed forward after the engagement at Alcaccr, it was apprehended they might have effected an entry. Admiral Napier carried 400 men thither in a steamer, on the 12th and the sailors were landed from the Donna Maria, armed wilh pistols and boarding pikes. Napier had not since returned, and it was thought that lie would take the command of an expedition to Algaeve, where the guerillas continue to commit the most dreadful excesses. The Duchess of Btaganz.i frigate sailed on the 12th for St. Ubes, from which she was to steer South the. officers and crew were paid nil arrears, and the Admiral declared that no ship should quit (he river till the men were tolly paid." m._

The same correspondent States that a change of Ministry had been spoken of for some days. There is a good deal of discontent among the officers in the service, and complaints of delay in receiving pay were becoming loud. The Courier contains the following account of the death of one of Pedro^s generals. "General Fromont »hot himielf on the 1.1th.

On Taesdajs, (Nov. 19th.) at Mr. O Comit'iPs call, a parochial meeting was held in the Com Exchange.Dublin, to petition Parliament for**the total extinction of tithes and Minister's money, and for it repeal of the Union,n Mr. F. Kelly was in the Chair. A committee was appointed, on the m«t»on of Mr. O'Cohnell, lo prepare petitions a«d procure signature*.— vVe give the conclusion of the Hon.

Mr. O'Connell then introduced his motion in reference to the repeal petitions* by a speech of some length, embracing va rious topics. Mr. Shiel followed and declared himself lorUhe principle of repeal, and suid— "Give us two thoasand petitions Irom Ireland. Let a day be named for the discussion of repeal. and then it shall appear whether the mockery and th« taunts of those who said that wo dare noteven to arguo it, were well foanded. Mr. O'Coiinel!, '(Ihottgh I differed from him) was rijht in not bringing it on. He showed his accustomed sagacity in not bringing on that question at the close of a session, when Ireland could not have been heard, and when the popular will could not hare been brought to bear upon the diseh*»ion. "But, at tho oot*ct of the next session, we shall prove to them that there is more in this great question than they deemed, and Englishmen may learn that it ii for their interest as well as for ours to let us govern ourtdves on pdints rx cluJively connected with ourselves, provided oth er terms of adjustment be adopted to meet the emergencies which tho opponents of repeal hare suggested.
