The decision Of the House Of Represents
tives, on Mr.. p. P. Barbour's proposition re-
la,ive TO the sale Of the stock held by the pubs
lie in the Bank of the United States was, in our
opinion, a very judicious one. Had the reso-
luton been received, and referred TO the Com
mittee Of Ways and Means, an instant and un-
favorable effect upon the credit of the Bank,
and the pecuniary interests OF tie proprie,ors
Of stock, would have been the inevitable con-
sequence. A pane would have beer commu-
nica,ed 10 the money market, destructive TO
public confidence, and tending to vexalions and
endorsements, which were as certainly out
Of the calculation Of the mover Of the resolu>
ton, as foreign to his intentions and desires
1t is only while the character Of Banking in
stitution is unassailable, that lis condition can
be considered as healthful The confidence Of
The public in lis stability is the nutriment by
which il exists; and the bare suspicion OF the
intention Of the Government 10 withdraw lis
proprietary interests, would so materially
weaken that confidence, as to go near TO its
destruction. The result of this abatement OF
confidence, and the cooperating effect OF the
presence OF such an amount OF stock IN the
market, mus, be heavy and immediate de
probation, sufficient to defeat the main object
Of the resolution, as avowed by the mover, TO
bic 10 the eXtlnguishment Of so much OF the
public debt.
BY becoming a joint proprietor, the Gov
ernment pleged the faith Of the nation TO the
support Of this institution, and on that pledge
the private stakeholder has been induced 10
invest capital in bank stock Foreign capita
lists have acted on the same pledge, and have
made liberal investments. Il Is the duty oil
the Government, therefore to exercise grea,
care and discretion, when called on to counte-
nance any measure, which may subject it TO the
imputation Of narrow and selfish policy, or
throw discredit upon any Of our pubic institu-
lions, or shake the faith Of other nations in our
honor and obligations.
We do not know whether or not this move
ment is 70 be regarded one Of the measures
of the opposition party. II it is, it will be re-
ceived by the people as evidence OF areckless,
ness Of the public interests, which cannot tail

Nc Dufiie $ opposition will, no doubt, be quo'
ted to dscoumenance that idea, He, however,
may have taken the alarm, at the universal
dismay which the introduction Of the rcsolu'
lion struck through the House; and have risen
in opposition for the purpose OF rescuing the
party from the critical situation in which
il was placed. We wait for some new de'el-
opements

consequence OF the complaints Of prize agents

Government gave new orders, which revoked

vessels were captured: and the TACT was no soon

Government the subject; who, IN conse-
