encountered bill objected to by the Presi.
dent. So much for the measure itself. Its
passage, let me say, is certain, and that
speedily by the House. In the Senate, il
will be considered as soon as the Revenue
bill is disposed of--which, hope, may not
be far into next week. OF its approval bv
him there will be no doubt.
The opposition to this measure, we learn
in advance, will be as strenuous as the OPP
position to the bank bill already returned
to Congress. Mr.. Calhoun has denounced a
bank ofExchange in advance, as objection
able as any other institution, and has de-
clared he knows no difference between the
one and the other Approving of the veto,
he does not approve OF the Presidents mes
sage further than its conclusions in relation
to the veto.
AS soon as this bill is signed BY the Pre-
sident, as you may rest perfectly assured it
will be, the Loco Focos will make more
open and uncompromising war upon the
President of the United States. The unpar-
donable sin with Mr.. Tyler was the appro-
val of the bill to repeal the condemned
Sub Treasury, and though many have prais-
ed the President for his disapproval of the
bank, the commentator has arisen rather
from the objections of the Wings to the act
of the President, than from any regard for
the esteem Of the President for the act he
has done. Events will prove this.-Ib.

THE LAND BILL.
The Chairman OF the Committee on the
Public Lands gave notice to the Senate that
he wished the amendments to be acted up
on to-day, with a view to the cngrossmcnt
of the bill on Monday. The proposition
was accedcd TO by Mr.. Clay, of Ala, who
pronounced it to be fair and liberal. The
amendments agreed to in Committee were
reported and adopted in the Senate. Some
of the amendments rejected in Committee
were then renewed. An important one,
making tho ratio of Distribution conform
to the Representative population, was adopt
ed. Other amendments were discussed.
The House was nearly all day engaged in
hearing excuses from loco foco members
for not voting upon questions pertaining to
the Bank Bill, with the purpose of protract-

WASHINGTON, August 20.
THE NEW BANK BTLL.

THE NEW BANK B1LL.
The important measure of to-day in Con-
gress has been the introduction of Bill to
establish q Bank of the United States.
The name of the institution will be, "Thc
Fiscal Corporation of the United States"
The obicct-the collection, disbursement
and better security of the public money, and
the regulation Of foreign and domestic En-
change.
The power Of the Bank will be to deal
exclusively in Foreign Exchange, and in
the Domestic Exchanges of the country by
Bills of Exchange made in one State or
Territory, and payable in another.
The means of the Bank will be capital
of $2l,O00,000, with power to increase it to
$3j,O00,OO0. OF the S2l, 100000, $14,OOO,-
600 are to be owned by subscribers, and
$7,OOO,OOO by tho United States.
The Mother Bank will be established at
Washington, with power to establish agen-
cies i'm any State or Territory, with the con-
sent of the Secretary of the Treasury or
the Secretary of the Treasury himself may
establish such agencies.
The agencies having power to deal in
Bills Of Exchange, may use them IN effect
as Bills to be discounted. A Bill of Ex-
change, purchased at Washington, may be
made PAYABLE in Newton ninety days af-
ter date, and redemption of the first Bill,
made payable by the purchase of another
at the end of the ninety days.
Many here, and many practical men. too,
regard the Bank now before Congress as
much preferable to the one objected to by
the President.
Nothing is said of the assent or dissent
of States in the bill. The agencies will be
established without asking the power.
The power of local discounts, so much
objected to by the President, will not be al
bowed; and the term corporation. instead
Of bank, is used in all parts of the bill.
These are all the material differences,
md to the north Of Washington, am sure
nc plan is quite as acceptable as the much
