lice, and an unrcscinded ru'.c; but this also vas re fused. Finally, instead of reforming the practice of the Bank, so as to make it conform to the chiii tcr and ruk-s, the majority of the Board of Directors changed the rules, and made them conform to the practice. Thus, rules made by themselves, are taken as authority for disregarding the restrictions c f the charter and of the regulations prescribed by the stockholders, and from the statement of thcc directors, it appears that almost ail the business of the Bank is done by committees of three or five, to which the President is attached, ex officio. The board of directors remciu ignorant of the movement of the corporation, which has been put under their management, and by an entire exclusion of the Government Directors from the committees, they are rendered useless for all the purposes, which induced their being placed in the direction. Under such management, could the interest of the go vernment be considered secure in their hands? The committee think not and that this, with other abuses connected with its management, which will be noticed in the subsequent part of this report, was a suffi cient reason to justify the Secretary in the removal of the deposites. The conduct of the Bank in the year 1832,

in secretly interfering, through the agency of

its president fic one of its secret committees, with the policy of the government, whereby they soiight, without the knowledge or consent of the government, to postpone the payment of a large portion of the public debt, denominated the three per cent, stocks for a long period beyond the time fixed by the government for its reimbursement, was in the opinion of the committee, not only without warrant of law, but highly reprehensible. The conduct of the Bank in this transaction; was fully examined by a committee of the House at the last session of Congress; and resulted in a report from the majority, and a counter-report from the minority, of that committee. To these reports hereto appended; the committee refer for all the facts connected with this illegal and un warrantable act on the part of the Bank. In the report of the majority it is admitted that "it is due however, to the government, to express the opinion, that the arrangement

made by the agent in Laagland tor the purchase of the three per cent, stock, and the detention of the certificates (which measures were subsequently disclaimed by the Bank.) the institution exceeded Us legitimate authority, ar.d had no warrant in the correspondence cf the Secretary of the Treasury ." The minority of that committee in their report, present all the facts in detail, derived from official correspondence and documents, and from the personal examination on oath of a part of the directors of the Bank. Refering to these official reports of a former committee of the House, the committee deem it necessary to do no more than to call the attention of the House to them as developping all the facts and circumstances connected with this transaction. But it has been urged that the conduct cf the Bank, in regard to the three per cent, stocks, should have constituted no part of the reasons which should have influenced the Secretary of the Treasury in the removal cf the deposites, because a majority of the Uous of Representatives had, at the

last session, expressed an opinion, by tl.e adoption of a resolution, that the deposites may be "safely continued in the B ink of the United States." To determine what consideration ou;ht to be given to such an expression of the opinion of the Iiou-e, it is

necessary to look to the circumstances under which it was given. By the Journals it appears that the committee reported to the House on the first March, and on the next day (second March,) the mino rity made a further supplemental report. The resolution in question was adopted on the second of March, being the last day but one of the session. The reports of the majority and minority of the committee were very long, and were accompanied by a mass cf testimony, epon which they were based, ant', which it had occupied the committee manj weeks to collect. The reports had not b?en printed, and could not have been examined or read by any member of the House except the committee themselves. The House, by this vote, did not approve the conduct of the Bank in regard to the three per cent. They expressed no opinion that other causes than the insecurity cf the public depositee in the Bank, would not be iimV.:ent to mstifv the Secretary in remov

ing them. These points were not ptesented for their consideration or decision. The vote in fact, amounted to nothing more than a simple expression of the opinion of a majority of the House, that as the deposites had been heretofore kept in the Bank, for aught that appeard, (the report of the committee not luting been printed or examined by the House) they might be safely continued there This expression of opinion nen under the circumstances stated, ought not, in the opinion of the committee, to have restrained the Secretary from the performance of his duty, if, in his opinion the Bank had become faithless to its trust, or the public interests made it necessary tor him to act. The next reason assigned by the Secretary for the removal ef the depositcs, is the un" ;ut Sc uuconcientious demand on the part of thelUnk for dan. ages to the amount of S5S, 342 77.upon the protested bill drawn by the United States on the Trench Government hare statement of the fact connected with

this transaction will show the true character of this demand on the part of the Bank. The Bank is the fiscal agent of the govcrnment.and during the whole period of its existence has held on deposite very large amoants of the public money, which it has used (without the payment of interest to the Governcmcnt, in loans to the community and has been thus enabled largely to

increase itspror.ts. r rom an uukku ailment appended to this report; it appears that the average amount of deposite of the public mcney in the Bank of the United States, and its cilices, for cacli month, from the year 181S to the year 1833, both inclusive, (being a period ot" 10 years) was 5, 717.-33 67; the annual interest accruing to the Bank upon this smount f public deposites at six per centum per annum, would be 403.635 and for a ieri d of 15 ears. would be S6.34X.5f3 5 2. During the month of February 1833. the (internment was desirous to have remitted from Paris to the n,,;trd State, the amount of the first instal

ment due to the United States from Trance

1831. For the purpose cf effecting the rc- lecnt. damages tipon the vulue cf the prir.ci

pal sum mentioned in such bill, and costs cf I

protest, together with a legal interest upon the value of the principal sum mentioned in such bill, from the time of protest until the principal and damages are paid and satisfied.' 'I he account rendered by the Bank (see letter of Cashier of the 13th May, 1833. hereto annexed) appears to have been made out according to thr provisions of this act, and the question is whether this bill is. embraced bv the act of 1785, The committee

are of opinion that a bill of exchange drawn by the United States is not embraced by this act. The State is never construed to b included in the general proviiot s of a statute, unless it is express'y named, or the language of the law, or the nature f its provi

sions plainly imply, chat its enactments were designed to bind the State as well as individuals. A bill of exchange drawn by the Mate would not have been embraced by the act of 1786, already referred to, because the State is not named in the act, and the

whole scope and language cf the law, shows that its object was to provide for tho dealings of individuals, corporation?, compan ies & societies, & not to regulate the action of the Government by wHich it was enacted The large damages mentioned in the law. are evidently intended for the benefit and convenience of commerce, and to prevent persons from drawing bills on foreign coun tries, where the drawer had reason to be lieve they would not be honored. The reason could not apply to the State; and there can be no ground to suppose that the State in passing this law, intended to inflict upon herself a penalty, if a bill drawn by her hould be unexpectedly returned protested. If a bill then drawn by the State of Ma1 viand on a foreign country, and protested, would not hav e entitled the holder to the 15 per cent, damages against the State under this law, neither can these damages be

damages or losses, other than the interest, I claimed against the United States, who now

cost ot protest, and re-exchange, which the stands in the place of Maryland, in that government promptly, and without hesita- part of the district ot Calumbia whei e this

mittance in the most convenient and least

expensive form, the Government of the

United States drew on the 7th l ebruary, 1833, a bill on the French Government for 903,565 69. and sold the bill to the Bank of the United States. The bill was paid for by the Bank, not by cash advanced and paid out of the Bank, but by simply entering the amount to the credit of the Treasurer on the books of the Rank, and thus increasing by that amount the public deposites in the Bank. The Bank continuing in the possession & use of the money as before the purchase, with this difference only,that the amount p'd for the bill was subject, with the other public moneys on deposite, to be drawn for by the Government as the public service might icquire. The bill was sold by the Bank in London and forwarded by the purchaser to

Paris for collection, where it was protested because the French Chambers had failed to make provision for its payment, and was afterwards taken up for the honor of the Bank, by its agent. 1 he Government immediately paid back to the Bank the principal of the bill. But the Secretary of the Treasury declined paying the damages which the Bank claimed. In the monthly statement frcrn the Bank cf the 3d of June following and

in all the monthly statements since that time, in each ot which is contained, amongst other things, the Bank's account with the Treasury,) the following item is charged by the Bank, to wit: "Due by the U. States for protested bill of exchange on France, S158.842 77." What makes this demand the mere unconscientious, is, that, during the w hole period, from the Tth of February, the day the bill was drawn, until it was repaid to the Bank, the public deposites in Bank, and which it held and used without interest, greatly exceeded the amount cf the bill.

1 he Bank then did not, in fact, suffer any

principal. Here was a Bank which, for up

No prudent individual who had any regatd to his own inserest or rights, would continue an agent, who would manifest such an utter disregard of his interests. An individual would

have taken his business out of the hands of such an agent. The Secretary of the Treasury, as the only authorized agent of the government competent to do so, has done noth

ing more, by the removal of the deposites, than discontinue the fiscal agency cf the Bank of the United State. In the view which they have here presented, the committee have proceeded upon the supposition that, by the f, tnct la zv, the Bank might demand the damages in question. If that were the case, the demand would be most unconsientious and m just. The committee do not, however, concedethat the Bank has even a legal riht to the damages claimed. In general, the drawer of a foreign bill returned protested is liable for the amount on the face of the bill, for interest, for costs of protest, for re-exchange, and for the reasonable expenses which have been incurred by the dishonor of the bill; and, according to the general usages which regulate foreign bills of exchange, he is liable for nothing more. There is no general commercial usage which gives damages of fifteen percent., or at any other rate, on the return of a protested foreign bill of exchange. Damages of that description, whenever they are allowed against

the drawer, are either given by statute, or

iniount of damages, recoverable upon a fo

reign bill returned protested, varies according to the local visages or stautory provis ions of the different states respectively. In Massachusetts, the damages are ten per cent., in addition to interest and costs of protest; in Pennsylvania, the damages arttwenty per cent, on bills drawn on Europe and returned protested; in Maryland, fifteen per cent.; the amount of damages in the respective states being regulated bv statute There is no general usage pervading all the Stales, which can regulate the amount of

damages. This bill was drawn and sold to! the Bank at the Treasury, in the District of

Columbia, ar.d in that portion of the District which was, before the cession to the United States, a part of the State cf Maryland. The right cf the Bank to recover the damages claimed, must depend upon the laws of Maryland still in force in this District, Congress never having passed anv law on the subject since the cession of the territory, and the usive jurisdiction over it

to the United States. The only statute cf the State cf Maryland in force in that part of the District formerly held by Marvland,
