to meet it, brought forward his resolution Of
inquiry, for which he had been SO much re-
preached by the party. He saw that altho'
the President had been warning with the
Bank Of the u. s., and the Administration
had pledged itself to Incorporating hos
tility to that institution, even to extermina-
ton, yet the Government had again taken
the Bank into its employment. This il
was attempted to defend on the sole ground
Of necessity. the tyrant's plea. And Jet It
was demonslrable that there was no snch ne-
cessity, the Government having power given
it to issue Treasury notes, and there being
no sufficient reason why the sale Of the bonds
Of the bank might not have been effected il
foreign market. The truth was, that some
ground Of political expediency had been
found for this employment Of the bank, and
for making friends with i. In fact the mosi
marked change had taken place in the rela-

on the public money; but Mr.. R. asked,
what hindered the banks from discounting
equally on the dcpoeites made by the Col
lectora These deposites were sometimes
not reported to the Treasury, only certain
kinds being returned. II had been said, that
on some deposites the Collector had stipuls-
ted for an interest Of seven per cent! While
the President countenances, and upholds
this loose accountability Of public officers,
and IN view of . recent daring instance Of
insult and oontumacy to both Congress and
his official supefiors, by this very Hoyt, who
Was said to be high in the confidence Of the
President, was this a fit time to make the
