( merchants Snould honor hun AZ one al
their abest and best defenders, and I,
the friends of sound and uniform +
currency, regulator ef exchanges, +
and a National Bank, will find in him, i
and in Daniel Webster, the ablest
champions IN the country. Mr.. Walk +
er, Of Mississippi, addressed the Senate
for two hours Yesterday, in favor off
/ the subtreasury scheme, 0gainat the
State Banks, and in opposition to the
"Monster.' Mr.. Walker has somei
/ peculiar notions Of his own, and one /
/ is, that ii the members OF Congress
will 90 holac, and tell their cotstitu- +.
ents that there is no prosSure-that
there has been no pFeSsure--that tho
sub-trcasWy experiment Is q good eX-
pertinent, and the State Bank expert
mont had onc--iu q wore, it they
Twill say that ali is rrL, ALL WILL M
WE'LL! .UUabHc d'cta! What kind
Of constituents does Mr.. Walker re-
present, that thus he boldly gives his
opinion? The people en- maSSe are
f certainly as capable Of forming an
, opinion as three hundred Senators
t and Representatives in Congress.
: Three hundred against six millions
: arc rather an unequal namber % come
in contest. MIR. Walker says also,
G that whenever majority OF the peo-
pie Of MlSsissippb or the Legislature,
shall require him to vote for n Ma
ional Bank, he will resign his seat
rather than vote for such an mstTtu-
ton. Docs any State in the Union
want such an institution more than
t Mississippi! Numerous petitions have
VI already been sent from that quarter
: iavornr the establishment Of such
II bank; and more, am told, will bt
c presented at the regular session o
n Congress.
