Treasury at length discovered, that the
charter ofthe Bank would expire in two
years and half, and that the public con-
venience required that the public funds
should be thus early placed in other
hands. This officer was not at that time
probably aware, that he should find it
necessary, a week afterwards, to inform
the sume body to which he had assigned
this curious reason, that two years and a
half from that time, there would, in all
probability, be little to remove; that the
expenditures Of the country would alb
sorb its revenue, nearly as fast as it &C.
crued. He had not probably at that time
ascerained the fact, that Mr.. Gal!atin,
Secretary of the Treasury not much
inferior in sagacity to himself, so far from
removing the public funds from the last
National Bank before the expiration of
its charter, suffered them to remain ill
the last moment, without loss, or the risk
OF loss. This, we say, is the reason on
which the act Of removal was vindicated
by the Secretary; other reasons, he al
legged might be given, but he declared
at the same time that the first one was
decisive. Could any thing be more fri.
volous or wanton, than to assign a rea-
son like this, for bringing down upon the
community such an unexampled mass of
suilering'
The policy ofthe administration at pre-
sent is, to lay the whole evil at the door
of the Bank Of the United States. Ifn
were true that that institution might ex-
tend its loans farther than it does, the es-
tablishment Of this fact would be no vim
dication of the conduct of the Exc cutive.
His rash and wanton and unnecessary
violation Of its charter is not thus 10 be
kept from the public view. Those who
share his enmity to that institution, may
venture to defend him; but the respon-
sibility will ultimately rest where it ought
to rest. History will record, as the voice
Of suffering millions at this time declares,
that an individual, invested with author.
ity in order to promote the public welfare,
has abused that authority SO as to pro-
duce widespread public ruin; that, re.
lying on vain and frivolous pretences
suggested perhaps by Unprincipled advi.
sers, he has deranged the currency o.
the country, given a death blow to conf
dence, and spread disaster and dismay
through b all classes Of the community.

In the Senate on Friday, Mr. WEBSTER pre-
sented the proceedings of a public meeting held
in the town of New Bedford, in the State ofMas-
sachusetts
MIR. Webster said, that New Bedford had been
one OF the most prosperous and fast-growing
towns in Massachusetts. Its citizens were en-
gagged in most useful, hardy, and adventurous
commerce, in which they had met with much
success and. three months ago, their condition
was hourishing and happy; but sudden and
most extensive reverse has happened to it
Thirty or forty failures are said TO have happen
ed, and great pressure and distress prevail. |
feel it my duty, said Mr.. w. to present these
things to the consideration of the Senate
Ifthere can be either any faith in mems state
ments, or if facts be any proof the pressure, so
far from diminishing is increasing. | am in
formed by undoubted authority, that in one of
our cities, supposed to possess its full proportion
of capital money, for the best security, is not to
be had for less than from twelve to eighteen per
cent per annum, nor in large sums even for
that interest; and this very week. in another CT
ty, one of the largest and most flourishing in
the Union, undoubted security could be had for
money at three per cent. per month.
While we are talking about the danger of the
moneyed aristocracy of the Bank, state of
things is suffered to exist which is perfect car
nival to the real moneyed aristocracy, if there
be any such thing in the country Capitalists,
holding up their money for such enormous rates Of
interest, and being able to command such rates
shows what sacrifices are made by industrious
men, of small capital, to protect themselves
from absolute ruin. In many places, numerous
workmen have been thrown out of employ. not
only in the manufacturing establishments. butin
the mines of some of the middle States. Indeed

Whereas it is deemed essential by the Gene
raj Assembly of Virginia. thatthe power TO levy
taxes, to appropriate money, apd to control tne
public revenue should be made to abide, IN
practice, where alone it has been contlded by
our constitution, in the immediate representa-
tives of the people; and whereas all experience
of the actual operations OF government demon
| tnet4ss that the assumption and exercise by
dents, II slenti,a'szed powers, become prece-
and still greater encroachm1n,,for progressive
| Therefore, Resolred, That the recent az.
| the President of the United States, exerting a
| control over the Federal Revenue, by causing
| the same to be removed, on his own responsible
lily, from the U. S. Bank, where it had been de-
posted under authority Of an act of Congress
| is in the opinion of this General Assembly, an
unauthorized assumption, and dangerous eXer-
else of Executive power
will ever sustain the President of the us. in the
| exercise ofs such powers as the Constitution has
clearly confided to him, it nevertheless contem-
plates with anxiety and dismay the opposition
evinced of late to extend those powers beyond
! the proper limitations of that instrument; dis
position clearly evinced in the recent subjuga-
| ton of the Treasury Department of the Federal
Government to Executive control, in the eXer-
else of an important discretion, for which it was
made solely responsible to Congress.
Deploring as this General Assembly does, that
interference as illegal and unconstitutional and
firmly persuaded that no nation can long main
tain its freedom, which surrenders to, or permits
to be grasped by the same hand, power over
the purse and the sword,
RESOLVED, That our Senators be instructed
and our Representatives be requested to adopt
prompt and efficient measures to vndicate the
Constitution and to redress the evils occasioned
by the late unauthorized assumption of power
by the President, over the public moneys of the
United States.
Resolued, That the General Assembly of Vir-
GINA cannot sanction the power which has been
claimed by Congress to establish United States
Bank, the power not being given to Congress by
the Constitution of the United States as has
been frequently and solemnly decided by the
General Assembly of Virginia
ReSotred, That the General Assembly does
not intend, by the declaration of its opinion in
regard to the constitutionality of the Bank of
the United States, to qualify, or in any manner
to impair the force of its disapprobaton of the
removal of the Deposites.
RESOLVED, That the Governor of the Common
wealth be requested to transmit copy of these
resolutions to each of the Senators and Repre-
sentatives of Virginia, in the Congress of the
