bs Tie bill was his 6cH-pTrPa.ed, as Mr. Ewing pre-
ns in another part Of his letter, by the direction OF
,he Pr. g,dent, and afterwards approved BY him.
But the President again advcrts, III his Cabinet con
suatons 10 the nsurmountabe objection which ht
had 10 Bank Of discount In Cabinet meeting, wber
irving instructions 10 Mr.. Ewing 10 make an effort Il
1,cu5. The passage of such bill as he could sign
Mr Ewing represents the President asking him
..ULat Go non nnG,rstdnd IN Je my 0pinons' Stai'
fasm 50 thai may see That there Is no mis"Ppr'heH
sim aLout than.
Mr. Ewinr uives his answer 10 this, and the
Presd. mis- reply, thug "7hnt they might Guheris'

This uou rrpiied 'D0nt DISCOUNTS they hare been
The s0urce Of tic most abomaac corrnptns, and arc
rhoiu unnecessary 10 enable the Bank 10 discharge IL
duties 10 The country and the Gorfrhment.
After this planation with another inhibition Of al
discounts by TIE emphatic expression, Doh name
discounts they have been the source OF The most aoo
mnabe corruptions, what are we TO think 81 oecfe
tary who would propose bill giving most aoso'uie
power 10 the corporation discount bills and to create
branch establishments in all the States to do tins most
odiuus kind of dscountlng, aud withont lhen coz,
sent In one Of its Fundamental provisions, the bii
was epunnant TO the main features Of the first veto
and in the other in the teeth Of the instructions
by which it was proposed, 10 exclude Bank oil DIS
count altogether No man kEows better Than VII. L"-
ing, that great portion of the suspended dfW when
sunk the late Bank Of the u. 5. like milestone, gre"
out of discounted bills of exchange. Has MIR. Ewing
forgotten one of those famous bills of exchange drawn
by George Pondexter while nj Phiiade hls Senator,
and serving the Bank on General Towson, for Sl0OGu,
which became the subject OF newspaper COMMENT pc
cause the General denied the authority 10 draw: lhis
famous bill but sample OF that abomInable corruP
ton to which The Preside nj refers in his remarks AND
yet Mr. Ewing drew up his bill 10 Ie-esiablsh this
whole system Of ''odious discounts, and "abominahe
corrupiions pTctenGs that the President approved,
(wien hidden III the phrascoogy Of charter,) what
he had denounced in Cabinet council and charges hinl
with lreachery for putting his veto on the power IN TIE
last bill, which lie had condemned by his veto on the
first and what his instructions had denounced before
the new bill framed 10 "lirad him.
We do not believe that any President was ever sur
rounded by more arlul perfdy, hearesS reache-
~, than Mr. Tyler has BEEN and the game 81 ms per
Sc cutors is 10 turn their crimes INTO accusa-
tons against him. The Indignation feel at the "a
pacty, cruelty, and reachery, which hunted oid up,
pccanoe down into his grave that we IND u all
raised 10 hunt down "Tyer too, has drawn from Us
this has,y repulse The Democratic party owe alr.
TYLER deep debt of gratitude for arrcst,ng the r
qmln strides Of the Bank power, aud We should be
iailhless to their cause il did not do what we can
10 defend him when assalled on this point II must
not be Inferred however, that Il IS our purpose 10 en-
list under the banner of the Administrator 4 he
new cast of Cabinet almost torbds the hope that
Mr.. Tyler has come 10 the determination 10 devote
himself TO restore Jefit rsonan Democracy.-lle vas
bred in that schco and would be happy to wei
come him back 10 it. Nothing short OF the adop-
