Mr. nAMER,s RESOLUTION

IL will be observed that Mr. Hamer, in present.
ing his resolution on Monday, dropped his pledge
for the Administration. This is uell-for be.
guaranty, Tor the course OF the Executive. il is
very probable Mr. ii. himself could not rely up
On any assurances from that quarter.
This movement indicates one of two things
either that the Administration is about to abau-
don It's former policy, driven thereto BY the "sign.
OF the times, or that the movement is a device
10 decoy the Banks into a premature resumption
SO that second failure may follow, and that the
triumph of tie party in their Sus-Treasury
Scheme may be complete. In either view of N,
case, it becomes the Banks to be on the aler,.
ihe Administration is not to be trusted further
than It's own safety may force it to do right We
shall, however be better able to Judge Of the mat
Ter when Mr. Haner shall have submitted tn.
details of his plan TO Sustain" the Banks. We

may be said that the sitting OF the Bank Couyen-
ton in New York may have elected the pro

oers nj that body have the s,gacily the public

Mr. Caubreleng voted against the suspension
OF the rule 10 allow the resolution to be intro.
dueed-which vote may be interpreted as sign
that Mr. Van Buren, is "nou-committal" on IN,
point.
