ALEX ANDRIA
NATIONAL HANK. {


The select csnsmitteo to whom
Was referred the bill fsr establishing
! National Bank, yesterday reported
tho same With amendments 10 the
Hoase Of Representatives. The
most material amendments reported
BY The committee, 60 to reduce the
Capital from SO to SO iniIlions--to
strike oat the section which render
ed ii obligatory on The Rank To- loan
Tie government certain sum Of
money and to make Il necessary for
the Bankat all tisies 10 redeem its
ipapes with specie. After coasidera-I
bic debate the amendments were all
agreed q. and i IS probable the
bill will passlas amended.
The vote OF the House of Repre-
sentativeson the Natioaal BanklBill
ha4 been reconsiaered and the Bill
referred to select committee. No
man'ofscnse could have regretted the
failure of the Bill ii the shape in
which iiwaspresented to the house Oh
Nonaay; buteYery man who isavarr
softhc perilous situation Of the iinan
ciaI concerns ofthe governsaent. must
he gratisied TO fad, that aNaiional
Bank may vet he established upon
principles suited to tho cxigeneies,
and at the Same time compatible
with the character Of the nation.
IA National Bauk founded upon saeh
prineii lies, will no doubt receive the
support of the minority. Theirob-
jcct may be to expose in the most
gIaring colours the unhealthy and
inconpeteney Of the men in power,
and legitimate object it is. but in
the present alarming condition OF
public Affairs, they will have another
ard . greater osject--the preserva-
ton Of the country. Without some
means are speedily adopted to re-
eire public credit, this great and all
Important object cannot be attained.
Under these Impressions we are
pleased to find that the institution
Of National Bank is yet q proba-
lie event. 10 the wisdom Of the
minority it will belong, to give it a
character Of rsspectabiiity and etn-
cheney.
