Again: "Of ell the substitutes for the present Bank
which have been suggested none seems to have united
any considerable portion of the public in Its favor Mos
them are hase to the same constitutional objections
or which the present Bank has been condemned.

Now. let any one believe Judge Cooper, II he can.

are compatible with the Cousitution-whch establish

Federal Treasury and have concern with it, except

and honest Judge!

(S) For the truth OF this position, the late EXPOSE

views

carcatures OF what has been attributed the President
and are recently conraiced by his express authori.

adoped until the States in the exercise Of their ieg.

Q2) The President himself informs his countrymen
wha, are his objections We appeal TO his own recent
exposition.
(iS) NOW, what Is the true inference which
cere and enlightened friend Of the Constitution would
make Establish Bank that violates its provisions p
Certainly not-but limit the amount OF taxation to the
down the receipts the necessary wants
Of the government-and after you have done that then
distribute The amount Of whatever it, must have

vaults OF one mammoth institution.
U4) As to Mr.. McDuffie, il is very amusing to see
Judge Cooper standing sponsor for his State Rights prn
cpies. He has always been friend to the u. S. Bank
and has Mr. Cslhoun-and 10! Mr. Cooper is so too
As 10 Mr. Randolph the Developments Which have beer
recently made strip his recent opinions upon this subject
OF the weight to which they might under other circum-
stances have been entitled We refer the Judge to some
recent publications for a solution of this remark.
Q5) For proofs the accuracy of this position sec The
efforts which have been made TO give their own
hostility the Presidenand defeat his re- election
See the loans which they have made to Printers
cumsances OF the deepest suspcon.See the which
have been expended by Carte Blanche from that very
Board Of Directors, their President fns
to any amount in paying the Pess--and dishurhened too
from the responsibility OF vouchers. When did the Ca
binet shew the like wisdom and honesty in estfyng
hostility TO the Bank!
Q6) Here again what stuff the Casuist is made
Of Instead OF addressing himself to the People OF the
several States, and persuadng them their Con.
su'ion and to assign The power. he is determined lay
his rude hand at upon the charter and pcrvert its
provisions Who toiH trust such politician this is
Who trust himl
Q7) " Honestly, wisely indeed, when we see the
abuses, Of which IL is susceptible.
IS) Here at length see the excuses 10 which this
potic is willing orus for the sake ofhe Bank. What
kind OF confidence can be placed in his judgment?
He would deem Mr. Bdde Traitor TO his trust
IL he had not employed some Of the money Of the Govern
ment itself, for purposes which contempat.
ell al the time OF its establishment Ii Mr. b. had not en-
ployed 10 publish the defences of The Bank (ogina
or prepared at any cost perhaPs he would have been
traitor TO his trust! How far the Judges political
morality extend The Bank must be deiended-at all
events, undestandihis is his principle. Suppose
Mr. Cailstn would not have prepared his Review without
compensation would Mr. b. have been traitor TO his trust
If he had paid him the wages OF his abor' If Webb
would not have defended the Bank without his fee,

But the whole argument Of Judge Cooper proceeds up
OH miserable nstatement OF the fact itself IL the Bank
had enemies had also friends If there were presses
opposed to il, it had presses in favor oil it, There
want Of defenders. Partly from aDimosity towards the
Administration; partly from attachment 10 the Bank;
and partly from the great interest its private
stockholders felt in its support there pens enough

and out Of Congressional there were presses enough

are facts known 10 every who is at all conversan

venture TO say, there active presses employed
in the defence than in the attack Of the Institution IL is
not true, then, that the objections would have remained
unanswered, or the caumnies unrepeed-But will
touch this matter in next, along with the Presidents
course in regard 10 the Deposes-we shall then too ex-
anime the he has exercised In relation 10 he Tea-
