TO TIE EDITOR OF THE ENourprR.
SIR,
In an essay addressed to the Legislature Of
Va on the sahject ofthe u S. Bank Bill:
published in your paper ofthe 18Th inst OBJ.
served that +" dad good reason TO believe that
the Senators OF this state would be among the
lumber" OF its advocstes," uniess 1ssTRucr-
ED by their constituents "----Since writing
mat essay have seen a letter from Mr. Giles
ana from another Senator of the United States.
which enables me To correct n state hent not.
made but with firm conviction q! its truth.
founded as supposed, on sufficient reasons--.
The letter OF Mar Giles conta,ns, as il. ought. no
pos:iiSr declaration OF his sentiments on this i'm.
Porlsht SUBJECT, but leaves strong inference that
ms line Talents will he enlisted on tbs. sid. OF
truth, IN support ofthe constitulion-Hfs FRENZY
fefter rs mare explicit.
Yet nc,~itlstandin5, the legislature ought to-
hnSfTucf-thelr example would be something,
Tier mere recommendations would have weight
and they have another senator TO whom mstruc.
hors might be necessary-There are few men
more Intelligent than Mr.. Brent and non. more
amiahie but his opinions may he, and .he heye.
IN tnie instance, are not only erroneous, but in
direct hos,ltyto thnse Of h,S imnedia,e consti-
tu-"t', and ofthe people Of Vrgiais generally.
