statement not iruc, but ihai it is he very
reverse of the truth. The amendment ac-
ually took away from the States the char
acter Of repositories, which the original
provision Of the bill gave, andr mnde The
transfer Of moneys practically at least a
donation!
But the candid Official proceedsto say,
that, if the bill had passed the House as It
came from the Senate, il wo0ld have re-
ceiyed his decisive veto. This is probable
enough. Il was 50 rumored among his
most confidential friends until the amend

have told the his readers the whole tTpGl-
that, ifit had been vetoed, it would stlll
/ have been made law by the constitution
al majority Of two-lhirds in both Houses
and that the knowledge Of this fact induced
some of the supporters Of the Administa-
tionto resort to the amendment, which, With
out changing the principles Of the bill,
afforded a loop hole out Of which the Presl-
dent might escape from the position ol hos

Itcau be proDed, that certain members
ofthe Cabinet were abroad the whole OF
Sunday aud sunday beating up the quar-
ters OF their political friends; and when
they ascertained that the bill would be pas
sed, peio or no reto, they determined that
the President must not sacrifice his popular
ity even to save Mr.. VAN BUREN, whose
intimate associates, and allies $. WRIGHT

had already given the most conclusive
proofs thathe was opposed to the measure.
| 'rhe amendmentIwns agreed upon, solemn
causcus, on Monday night, and was drawn
UP by no less a peBena9e than Mr. BUTLER,
the Attorney General. as sa' mon
The events ofthe last week, truly record
ed, would furnish an inimitable lecture on
Van Burenism. This deposit bill has tried
the aillicton band of the Magician 10 the
very core. They cannot escape from the
position of determined and indefatigable
hostility to it;,and if these ocourances do
not open the eyes of the people to a just
sense of the evils which Van BuREN re-
gime would hringiupon them, what can
equal their iinfatuation? lfany onels still
sceptical as to the utter incurableness OF
of these sticklers for corruption, he is very
likely to die in his doubts. What moro
can they do TO illumine the question? In
any clearer manner can they demonstrate
their antipathyato do good, or their natural
cleaving to corruption? tp2ce
There is something absolutely ridicu-
lous in the cry which was raised by
WRIGHT, and BENToN, and CAMBERIENG.
that there would beno surplus, and that the
Government would be despoiled in order
to bestow largesses on the States. 1T is
said that the last attention to Toasted Es-
quimaux, when he can swallow no more, is
to lay him on his hack, and coil long strip
of blubber into his mouth till it is quite
filled, and then cut the supefAuous fat of
close to his lips. With this full measure
the Esquimaux is perfectly content, and
his friends do not cry out that he is starved
because the surplus blubber is cut off and
appropriated to those who can make dse
of it H.sa.. Bra iised
The case of the Esquimaux is the case
of the present Government, 1t is full loflaI
things, and there is superAuity which the
supporters of the distribution bill are t1r
cutting off smooth TO the lips; but VAN
BUREN, CAMBRELENG, and WRIGHT, raise
cry of spoIiation and robbery.
Now that the deposite bill has become a
law, Mr.. VAN BUREN has set ON foot another
course of operations to shield himself from
the consequences This determined and in
defatigable hostility to the measure. The
Globe announces that the President will
take an early opportunity of giving to the
public his views on the subject. These
will llbeVAN BURAN's reasons against the bill
withthe Presidents name attached thereto
and they will be set abroad to illnmine the
faithful and convince jhem that VAN was
right after all, III
Another part of the scheme is to detea
the appropriation bills for harbors, nov
bending, and then raise the cry, that thi
distribution viii ever prevent the making o
such appropriations as are called for by tn
wants of the country, This was mos
clearly developed Yesterday, when the har
Dor bill was under consideration in commit
tee of the whole, Certain provisions of it g

Now CAM, calculates that, if he can defea
these appropriations he will easily succee
in producing an excitement in the district
of these gentlemens by a clamor aboutdi:
