sthe chAI$eYs we say we CilaEltduiy sus
sgest that MIR. Madison was not then So
|r;ous, Cor, how is it possible, if he va
then serious, and had a perfect conyie
ltion that granting a charter for AVIATION
Hal Bank was an open violation OF tia
|eonstitution he had swore to supper
THAT he can now grant his signature t
1.-THE late bill for establishing a Nationa
Bank! No, no, he was onlyjokipg i
I17sI; it was only the exercise of a littl
lpolitic hypocrisy At least his friend
would do better to say so, than to excus
him of now violating his oath to supper
the constitution; though he did say il
THAT speech that he IS we'll recollecte'
THAT a power to grant charters of iGcor
operation had been proposed IN his gene
lral convention. of which hs was mem
der, and rejected"
| In the csurse of his speech Mr.. Ma
dison said it would interfere SO as t.
indirectly defeat state bank at th'
same place." On the same principle HI
said congress s. might incorporate com
lpanies of manufacturers, Or companle:
for cutting canals; or even establish re
|ligious teachers in every parish, and pay
them out Of the treasury OF the United
States
The truth is that there is wide DIFF
ference between federal administration
land one democratic what is against the
constitution under the one is perfectly
comfortable to it under the other. Be-
sides it makes great difference whe-
Their democrat, or fede alist, violates
the constitution. If you are once de
|mocrat, or republican, as they unjustly
call themselves, no political SIMS imputa-
BILE to you. 1t is Calvin's doctrine OF
the perseverance of the saints; once re-
generated, once made true republican,
do what you will you shall be saved.
When the bill for the reaewal of the
charter of the U. S. bank was pending
in 1871, an old member, Mr.. Anthony
New, remarked in conversation that, it
the bill passed. Mr.. Madison would be
placed in q very delicate situation, for
ifhe put his signature to it, having OPP
posed it at first as unconstitutional, he
would forfeit his character for eonsiten-
cy.-AIas, he has no such character to
lose. Consistency! Consistency /! !
Lakady what an obsolete word.
A navy was a ruinous appendage of
navy is most desirable
was to be avoided-waris al
glorious thing--a standing army was
the devil all over--a standing army is a
necessary thiug-TaSes were proof of
BAD administration-Taxes are evidence
Of the patriotism ofthe people-a public
Iebt was a curse--a public debt is pu-
bic elessing--
Consistency !-Ifthe bill to renew the
charter had passed, Mr.. Madison, after
suhieh would be the most po-
QUAR- side, probably wouId have refused
MS Il, signature; and have sent back the |
,lli win a .housand arguments to proveI
