at involves interests far deeper than
the temporary existence Of the Bank-it
concerns the whole character of our free
institutions. If a Convention in Pennsyl-
ysnia can dissolve the obligations con-
tracted by the Legislature, so can a Con.
%veution in New York or Virginia. II,
when a Legislature has pledged the faith

and reappearing 10 a few months as dele

decided whether this Penns, lyania ofours

the State be relieved, either at home or
abroad, from the stain which a few small
politicians wish TO fix upon her, until the
Convention adopts some solemn declara-

capable of violating the sacred engage
