RE.MI.NISCEJvCEs.
The events, which attended the dissolution of the
Old Bank, in 1911, are i'm some respects. SO anolo
gous 10 those OF the present times, that we have de-
termlned to refresh the memory of the Public. by
repuolishing extracts from columns at that in
teresting crisis. There was then similar Dres-
sure--a similar panic-the deputations of the
Bank men to Washngton-the same effort made to
dragon the People and their Representatives to re-
new the charter and quarter the Bank upon the
Constitution. The pressure and panic the " crush"
as we called il in the following extracts were not as
great as they are now, for the very reasons stated
because we had then to get rid of Bank only 10
miiohs capital, whereas the present Bank is armed
with an influence of 35 millions. The very conse-
qiences, which we then predicted as likely to arise
from Bank OF 30 millions, are now actually pass
ing before our eyes, under an Institution Of 35 mil
nohs.-Dut what then Is not this rather an addi-
uonai inducement for Staying monster, which is
now defying the Government and the People /? Does
not tins furnish more conclusive reason for restor
ing the principles of the Constitution and reriev-
ing the liberties of the People?
