%~TnE Presidents MESSAGE oecu-
pies the chief part Of this paper. 1t is
confined entirely to the special objects
for which Congress was convoked.
The President labours to clear away
the dust which has been thrown "bv
The passions and conflicts OF party" over
the causes which produced the present
unhappy state Of things in our country.
He aims to show that the policy of the
Government in relation TO the currency
mas had nothing to do with it-that a va.
F.ety OF causes have been ct work--h,t
that 1t is mainly attributable 10 oyerac<
sion IN all the departments of business.
thls he ascribes to the facilities afforded
10y the Banks in acquiring and extending
credits and these again to some tim
iecedent causes" which he does not
venture to name New, what were
fhose antecedent causes As the profess
ed object Of the President was TO lead the
puoilc mind to correct conclusions on the
subject, why does he step thus short
IN the investigation The truth is ;,,.
had just come to the point where the
fact could no longer be blinked, that the
whole evil has sprung from the unau.
thoFized interference OF the late Execu.
tive with the currency To prove this;
near what he says while urging his
scheme Of Treasury agencies :-"Erpe-
renee has shown that TO lend the DnbGo
money to the LOCAL BANKS IS ha1ardous
10 the operations Of the Government, a.,
tedst OF doubtful benefit to The institutions
themselves, AND PRODUCTIVE OF D1sAs-
ferrous DERANGEMENT TO THE Rus,
NESS AND CURRENCY OF THE CoUNrRy Y"
The President then calls the attention
Of Congress 10 the objects for which it
Has been eonvoked The State Banks
having been demonstrated by expert
ence to be Incompetent to the manage
ment of the fiscal concerns of the Go.
Vernment, as was early predicted by
those who opposed the Experiment, -
notwithstanding the confident boasting
OF its author and his friends, the Presi.
dent IS now compelled to acknowledge
the necessity OF providing some other a.
gency for that purpose. A National
Bank, however, he tells US he is opposed
to, both on Constitutional grounds, and
as being contrary to the expressed will
oil the people. What, then, remains to
be done Contrary TO our expectation
we confess, Mr.. Van Buren for once com
ptesely discards his non committaI polio,
and comes up fully to the responsibility,
OF carrying out" the latest of the ever.
varying plans Of bis predecessor in re.
gard TO the currency and finances ofthe
country. In obedience to the late letter,
from the Hermitage, he goes for divorc.
ing the Government from all Bunks-re.
