OF which will, 1t is believed afford safe test for the
iuture-fe short of five thousand dollars, av-
erage of less than one daily for each State; in the
the city of New York they did not average more
than two day, and at the city Of Washington on
ly four.
The difficulties heretofore existing are, moreover,
daily lessened by increase in the cheapness and
facility OF communication: and it may be asserted
with confidence, that the necessary transfers,
as well as the safe-keeping and disbursement
OF the public moneys, can DO with safe
ty and convenience accomplished with safety
and convenience accomplished through the agsn-
cies Of the Treasury officers. This opinion has
boon, in some degree, confirmed by actual expert
once since the discontinuance Of the banks as fs-
cal agents, in May last; period which, from the
embarrassmeuts in commercial intercourse, present.
cd obstacles as great as any that may BE- hereafter
apprehended.
The manner of keeping the public money since
that PERIOD is fully stated in the report Of the Sec
rotary of the Treasury. That officer also suggests
tho propriety of assigning by law, certain addi-
tionaduties to existing establishments and officers
which, with the notifications and safeguards re-
ferred to by him, will, he thinks, enable the De-
partment to continue 10 perform this branch of the
public sefvice without any material addition either
in their number or to the present expense. The
extent of the business be transacted has already
been stated; and in respect to the amount Of mo-
ney with which the officers employed would be en-
trusted at time, it appears that, assumi IL bal
ance Of FIVE millions 10 be At all times kept in the
Treasury, and the whole of it left in the hands Of

would not exceed an average Of thirty thousand

danger, difficult, if not impossible to be avoi,,.
ed in such an arrangement, is made strikngly evil
dent in the very event by which it has now been
defeated. A sudden act of the banks entrusted
with the funds of the people, deprives the Treas
ury, without fault or agency Of the Government,
of the ability to pay its creditors in the currency
they have by law a right to demand This cir
cumstance no hu:tuatiOn of commerce could have
produced, If the revenue had been collected IN, the
legal currency, and kept in that form BY the officers
of the Treasury. The citizen whose money was
in bank receives 1t back, since the suspension, at
a sacrifice in it's amount; whilst he who kent IN
the legal currency of the country, and in his own
possnsson, pursues without loss The current of his
business. Tho Government, placed in the situa-
ton of the former is involved in embarrassment !,
could not have suffered had it pursued the course
Of the lattcr These embarrassments are, moreover.
augmented by those salutary and just laws which
forbid il to use deprecated currency, and by SO
doing, take from the Government the ability which
individuals have Of accommodating their transac.
lions to such catastrophe.
A system which car, in time of profound
peace, when there is large revenue laid by. TINS
suddenly prevent the application and the use Of The

Van Buren, In addition to these, However,
we beg leave to refer the reader to the Report
of the present Secretary of the Treasury, Of
the 18th Of December, 1884, in whish this
whole subject is ably and deliberately dis
cussed, and results in the preference Of the
State Bank system Will the Globe be
pleased to surmount the difficulties and argu-
ments which itself has here presented to its
present fayorite scheme-and also persuade
the democratic party, if it can, to deiounce
the most faithful Of their public servants who
supported, and who are now supporting, the
policy recommended by General Jaekson's
administration upon this subject, because they
do not think it their duty to face to the right
about as the Globe has thought proper to do.
That journal and its fellows seem to have met
with an entire change, in the short space Of
less than three years. The doctrines Of that
day QS34-5) are now totally repudiated.-
Now the Globe and all that follow in its wake,
have become the sturdy advocates of ascheme
which then the friends Of President jackson
were "to man united against"-ihey have
now became enamored of plan which then
they declared afforded just cause " FOR ALARM
AMONG THE PEOPLE" and the effect of which
would be ITO ENLARGE EXECUTIVE
POWER AND PUT IN IT'S HANDS
THE MEANS OF CORRUPTION"-they
have now become the advocates Of sys-
tenn similar in every particular with the one
which they then condemned, because, in addi-
ton to their other overwhelming objections,
they believed IL ,oould place the public heasurs
in jeopardy, "AND EXPOSE 1T TO BE
PLUNDERED BY AN HUNDRED
HANDS, WHERE ONE CANNOT NOW
REACH IT."
What has occurred to lead to such an en-
tire abandonment of the former doctrines Of
these papers, and the headlong advocacy Of
what they then repudiated--and what has
produced the intolerant and anti-democratic
spirit which they manifest towards those VIII,

The Senate proceeded to the consideration OF the bill
imposing additional duties, repositories, in certain
cases, on public officers.
Mr.. WEBSTER considered the importance Of the
pending question far transcendng the present cir
cumsances affecting not merely the present Legislation,
but the powers Of the government and the future pros

preliminary view Of the history Of the country and the
character and Of the government He adverted
to the two Banks Of the u S., and the salutary inau-
ence which they exercised over the currency of the
country and to the hostility exhibited by the govern
