TIE Tennessee Senate.

III his body went TO work few weeks ago
with most laudable zeal to carry out its de-
structive doctrines but it was frightened at
its own folly, and very wisely determined to
do nothing. 1t must have been d rich treat
to see the wiseacres mumbling and CHOKING at
the words of Polk, Jackson, and the Globe.
when presented to them at an unreasonable
moment. The subjoined article gives pleas
ant view of their predicamcnt.
from tic Louisville Journal.
Some very amusing things occurred in the
Tennessee Senate while the Instructing Res
olution were under consideration. In lieu Of
the second resolution, instructing the Ten
nessee Senators TO vote in favor of the sub
Treasury, Mr.. Anderson, a Wing, offered the
following amendment:
ReSoired, That corporation is much safer
than an individual agent, however response
bic he may be, because it consists of an asso-
citation OF individuals who have thrown to-
gether their aggregate wealth, and who are
bound In their corporate character to the ex-
tent OF their whole capital stock for the de-
posite; and that it is the opinion of this Ge-
neral Assembly that the heaviest security
which the most wealthy Individual could
give, would not make the public deposites
safe at the point Off large collection.
The beauty of this resolution was, that it
was III the precise words used by Gov. Polk
while he was in Congress. Of course his
partisans In the Tennessee Senate could not
vote against it, and, as to voting for it, Mat
was OF course out of the question. Lets
lay 1t upon the table, exclaimed Mr.. Y GA
KUN, after nusing while upon the difficulty.
His friends caught at the suggestion, and
with sshccpish looks laid the amendment on
the table.
Mr.. Anderson then moved to amend The
second resolution by inserting the following ::
Resotce6, That we have confidence i'm the
ability and capacity of the State Banks 10
perform all the duties of fiscal agents for the
government.
rms was the precise language used by
President Jackson in one Of his Messages.
and so the idea Of voting against it was not
to be entertained by the loco focos for a me-
ment- Lets lay it upon the table," sug-
Staunton spectator, and general advertiser. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 183?-1849, 1839-11-28

gested Mr.. oakum. The lolSies knew not
what else to do, and therefore they sneaking-
~ disposed of Gen. Jackson's words as they
had previously disposed ofNIr. Folks.
The same MIR. Anderson, with provoking
calmness, then moved the following amend
ment in lieu ofthe resolutions instructing the
Tenn. Senators to vote for the sub-treasury:
Resoired, That the Independent Treasury
is disorganizing and revolutionary, and sub
versive of the fundamental principles Of cur
government, and Of it's entire practice from
1889 down TO this day and thatit is as pal
pable as the sun that the effect of the scheme
would be 10 bring the public treasury much
nearer the actual custody and control Of the
President, and expose it TO be plundered by a
hundred hands, where one under the late sys-
tenn could not reach it. In such event we
should feel that the people had just cause for
alarm, and ought to give their most watchfui
attention to such an effort to enlarge execu-
tive power and put in its hand the means Of
corruption.
This was in the precise language used by
the Globe when the sub-treasury was first
proposed by Gen. Gordon. stLet's lay that
upon the table too,'' exclaimed Mr.. Yoakum
with blank look. There was no other course
to he taken, and so, hiding their faces in
their handkerchiefs, they gave the same des-
tnation to the Globes words, that they had
previously given to Folks and Jackson's.
MIR. Anderson was too good-natured to per-
secute them any further.
