We this week lay before our readers the mani
festo Of President jackson, purportipg TO be a
Justification Of his course in the removal OF the
public deposites from the United States Bank -
We wish our readers to understand the views Of
the Executive on this subject, and we have there
fore thrown open our columns TO the reasons as
signed for this singular course. IL is an important
state paper, but we defy research into the whole
archives Of the country for a paper Of high au-
thofity so distinctly marked BY bad temper. ca
lumny, personal abuse and an entire disregard Of
dignity and deeency. Il is manifestly the dictate
Of unbridled passion and resentment II is well
known that the bill for the recharter Of the Bank
was passed by large majoritics of both houses Of
congress. The President in defiance of public
ointment thus expressed, interposed his consti-
iutional objection and defeated it. Persecution
might have rested here, but Executive ven.
zeance was not satisfied. Accordingly the
advice OF Congress was asked at the last session
for the removal Of the Depostes. The House Of
Representatives, by vote Of four to one, declar.
cd the dePosites secure. But the President is
not to be interrupted by the clogs which the con.
stitution has thrown around him. The opinion of
Congress is set at nought, and be appeals to his
constitutional advisers. Here again he is thwar-
ted. for majority Of his own cabinet earnestly
demonstrated against the removal. The power
Of removal is vested by law in the Secretary of
the Treasury. He refused 10 make his Office
subservient to the unbridled passion of his chief
and a more suppliant tool is substituted.
Will the people submit to this, If so. away
with the show Of Republican liberty. Down
with Legislatures, and Cabinets, and Constitu.
tons, and laws, and let us know that we live
under the rod Of despot.

fsy-We solicit the attention Of our citizens TO
the notice of Dr. North in our advertising col

highly respectable sources, and heard of the sa-
tisfaction he has given in some Of the neighbor-

warranted in recommending him as a skilful and
cafe dentist.
