eavations, Mr., Spencer suhminaiLthe Itesolattott to
the will of the Houseirsicred tg.lie on the table. i
Mr. M'Laait, of, Detainee, rose', he said, not w
oEer any opposition to the incriry, but merely to re-
guest ti td giski to the subject of the Resolution
such a consideration as its importance deserved. It
would be recollected by the House, that a Resolution
had passed the Senate during the last Session, call-,
ing on the Secretary of the Treasury to lay before
the Congress a particular account of the state and
transactions of the Bank. This Report might be ex-
to be shortly laid bifare Congress, and in that
peeled
Report would perhaps be embraced all the informa-
tion required by the resolve.—Although rumours had
existed, Mr. M'Lean said, with regard to certain
transactions is the Bank, he thought, it would be well
not to institute an inquiry hastily on the foundation
of mere rumour. He wished the Resolution to lie
on the table for .t day, or for a longer time, that the
House might have time to reflect on it. He there-
, fore moved, that it lie on the table, and be printed.
Mr. SPiNCER said he had no sort of objection to
this course ; but he hoped that, after Gentlemen
should have reflected on it, they would be disposed
to take it up and act on it at an early day.
After some debate upon a motion .for increasing
the number of Clerks in the War Department, the
House adjourned.

think they have a right to ti!Lrment tht peasant in all
possible ways.
