u. s. TWENTY-THIRD CONGRESS
FIRST SESSION.

IN SENATE, Saturday, Mareh 90
Mr.. Webster presented the memorial Of
the citizens Of Franklin county, Penn
sylvania, on the subject Of the existing
distress. Memorials on the same sub
ject from Newport, Smith6eh, and Cum
berland, X. l. were presented by Mr..
Robbins.
In the House, no business Of public
nature was transacted.
IN SENATE, Monday, March 24ih.
MIR. Webster presented the memorial of
nine hundred inhabitants of Lynn, in this
Commonwealth, praying for the rcstora-
ton OF the deposites to the Bank Of the
United States. The Chair presented
the proceedings & resolutions of meet
ing held in York county, Pa. approving
the course of the Executive in removing
the deposites. 1t was stated by the
Chair that this was the same paper which
the Senate had some days since refused
to receive. The preamble containing the
principal Objectionable matter, had how
ever been expunged. No other aliera-
ton had been made; and II was for the
Senate To determine wh, the paper
should be received. Mr. Clay inquired
whether it was now couchcd in respect

the Bank, and had actually received
several thousand dollars for defending
that institution-and furthermore, that
the Bank had violated its Charter in
causing to be printed and circulated ct
its own expense, several thousand cop
les Of that speech for the purpose of in
huencing the public in favor of re-
charter. This same kind of slang has
been reiterated time and again by the
conductors Of that press, and almost
without intermisson for the last two
years. Notwithstanding all this, these
same "perish credit, perish commerce"
JEWELLERS, NOW take the same speech
of MIR. Webster,-pick out half a sem
tence from one part, and half sentence
from another, and sticking them togeth-
er so as to render them completely unin-
telligible, publish them with great pomp
and ceremony to prore that Mr.. w. was
at that rery time opposed to the U. S.
Bank! With these facts staring US full
in the face, there is but one rational con :
clusion to which a sane mind can posi-
bly, arrive, and that is, that the conduc
tors of that paper are either knaves or
fools themselves, or that they think their
readers are. SPECTATOR.

INFAMOUS DECEPTION.

BY comparing the Providence Jour
nal with the II. /. Republican of yes'er-
day, it will be seen THAT the list Of names
published in the Republican purporting
to be the names Of gentlemen in Provi-
dence who signed notice calling a
State Convention to form a prox, con-
tains SIXTEEN more than the list in
the Journal, while j. excludes ten of the
actual signers-making in all t~enty -sir
more names than are contained in the
original list. This piece Of imposition
is so bare faced that mere notice Of it
is sufficient.

The GiRARD BANK.-In pursuance of
a resolution lately adopted at meeting
Of the Stockholders of this bank, that
such Stockholders as desired that the
government deposites in that bank should
be given up, should subscribe a paper
signiiying that wish, this paper at one
O'Clock on Wednesday, the eth ult had
been subscribed by the holders of l6,-
575 shares,-the whole number being
80, 900, and several thousand shares be-

be given. 1t was therefore presumed
that the directors, who approved of this
reference of the question to the Stock
holders, would give up the public money
in their custody, which is stated to

BANK OF MARYLAND.-The failure of
the Bank of Maryland appears to have
occasioned great excitement in Balli-
more, and is likely to occasion great
distress to large number Of sufferers
from the failure. In the mean time, the
President of the Bank makes the follow
ing liberal pledge, of his own fortune, of
the extent of which we are not informed =,
to mitigate the distress:
"My confident opinion is that the bank
is able TO pay all IT'S obligations, but to
obviate any difficulty whatever, and to
satisfy the holders o. the notes and the
special certificates Of the Bank, here
by pledge my whole private estate, whe-
ther real, personal, or mixed, to redeem
any deficiency that the means of the
Bank may, by any possibility, be unable
to redeem. EVAN PoULTNEY.

he effect Of dcpriving the country of

WAS indeed severe, and Was severely
felt; but this effect was altog ether dis.

Besides, II is not certain, that if the
deposites had not been removed now,
that they would have been removed
hereafter; for that would depend on the
future will Of Congress and that again
on the sentiment of the country. am
aware, that the Hon. gentleman from
Georgia, (Mr. Forsyth) whose argument
am considering, in order to make good
his argument, assumed that the senti-
ment Of the conntiy was decidedly
against a. Bank: but what is more extra
ordinary, he assumed that it would re-
main so. Now, there is no dealing with
assumptions like this; they have nothing
tangible in them; it is like battling with
the air; you strike at nothing; at best TO
use Yankee phrase) it is but guessing,
and can only be opposed by guessing.
But it is enough to say that the reno
val Of the deposites nop, with all its col
lateral evils noU, is certain; and it is not
certain that removal would have been
made hereafter; and if made hereafter,
it is certain it would not have been at
tended with these collateral evils.
