THE BANK BILL.
The bill to establish the Fiscal Bank ofthe !
United States, which passed the SENATE
some days ago, yesterday finally passed the
House OF REPRESENTATIVES, by majority of
thirty one rotes, and now only requires the
assent of the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES to become a law.
The bill passed the House as it came from
the Senate, without amendment or alteration
Of any sort. Not thai it had not better have
been amended in some particulars; but our
political friends appear to have considered it
most expedient to pass the bill in its present
shape, and leave the desired amendments to
be disposed ofin a supplementary bill, to be
brought forward at the present session.
In consequence of the failure to procure a
mendments deemed by them indispensable,

can be given of the determined spirit of the
Wing party, than that the separation of such
men as Mr.. ADAMS, and those Of the same
politics who did not unite with the party on
this question, should yet leave the majority in
favor of the bill so large.
Thus has the HOUSE of REPRESENTATIVES
added another to its claims to the applause of
the People, for the fidelity with which it o.
beys their will, and the perseverance and
firmness with which it executes their purpc-
