point was, that this was bill Tor Naucnai BANK

3. The third point admits that the veto po~er
ought TO be very cautiously used sc. On this Poizt
Mr. 3. beiieved all were agreed; and Ae
,remely sorry the President had practised upon
his own theory.
4 The Presidents next point was that the veto
never could be exercised. when bill had
passed botn Houses By a Constitutional majority.
This. Mr. B. ,hosght, was not z very new discoy-
erv: ne yre.umed most gesilemen knew that, be-
fore the President stated as OF his objections
70 the bill.
) In the fifth point the President came back to
the per se bill, and objected to It's title. The title
of the bill formed one OF the President. constitu-
:onai objections 20 IL; and bis particular objection
seemed to be that it had the term pubic revenue
in it: the word public being Put IN italics. So
it appeared that If it had been for prtVGte revenue
the objection would have been obviated. Was that
the Presidents meaning Now Mr. 3. did not
know if il was true. but references were made TO
rumor-hc did no. speak OF that two-legged runaor
which sometimes stalked about the Capitol. but of
rurlor with thousand tongues-but rumor said
that this very title in the President own hand
writing, and that It's terms were suggested by him.
self The President. objected thatlt should be de-
nominated bill COR the collection, sate-keepins,
and disbursement OF the public revenue; !; but what
bill. in the name OF God, corld We have passed OF
the subject which would not have been entitled TO
such title!
6 The next objection was, that the provisions of
the bill did not contradc, its ,itle vcry strange
objection Firs; inc President objects the ;It!e
of the bill and then that the bill does not contra
dict It's title
:. Hi, sevsnih objection was that it provided
that Congress should 10; charter another Bank
wi,hin the next twenty years. So he presumed
that if Congr ress would onl: pass halta dozen Banks
OF the same character it wotI al once remove this
constitutional objection.
8. Bot the nrxr lection thai ;lle bill ex-
cluded the power ii discounts NV el 1t be borne
in mind ihat The strong ohrcijons 10 me hrst Bank
bill had been III, /; ,I9rized discounts; but the
present bill, with an exprcs. view 10 meet and re-
move the President. objection, Had been so drawn
as To exclude that power.
These. he presumed. were the constitutions! OBJ
iections Of the President this bill. Aiicr stating
them thus generally, the President came down to
details, and they were no; oi such description as
recommended them 10 Mr.. B.s appreciation. Ono
of them vas that the bill did not provide cr regu-
latiug the rates of exchange. Now Mr. b. I'M
ngined il would somewhat trouble the President 5
ingenuity to frame any bill that would, espccinly
for twenty wears to come. The other was n most
remarkable objection, indeed; after oblecting "a
the bill because it excluded discounts. his last OBJ
lection was that thc bill did noauthorize discounts
in the District OF Columbia Would the Presi-
dents objections to the bill be removed If Congress
should pass bill to charter second Bank Mr.
b. remembered TO have heard the prQjcc; suggested
in Virginia. of having tico national Banks, one a
Northern and the other Southern Bauk and the
scheme was, for time, great tavor1te with the
sky-scrapers in that State.
Mr.. BORIS went on to review the position and
coarse of the President, insisting that he had vio-
lated hi, public pledges by vetoing this bill-pedges
contained in his Message at the opening of Con-
grc.s, and in his frequent Speeches against the
abuse of Executive power. He declared that Mr..
Tyler had never dreamed Of veto;ng Bank, ii
Congress should deem one necessary, until twenty
days after the opening of Congress, when, deuded
with hone OF reelection, he had resolved to de-
tach himself from the mass OF his friends and throw
himself into the arms of the Opposition. Since
then, he had betrayed and trifsd with tho hopes OF
the nation for three months, and now asks TO De
forgiven therefor He takes great credit for sign
ing all the other bills of the Session but how could
he have done otherwise Were they not IN ac-
cordance with his own recommendations As TO
the Land Distribution, he was committed oit ever
and over, az no man ever was before, and yet he
hcsitated to sign the bill
Mr.. BORIS went on to show that Mr.. Tyler had
expressly endorsed the Dayton Speech OF General
Harrison denouncins tho Veto Power, and express
ing his willingness to in tie establishment
of a Bank Also, that he Mr.. 7. had expressed
similar sentiments in speeches made by him last
year dnring the canvass in Virginia and Ohio. He
sad he could produce letter from Mr. 7. of SINH
lar tenor.
He said that this was ty no means the first time
that Mr.. Tyler had been accused OF trcachery-ih
ne was SO in super.eding John Randolph in the
Senate in 1927. He said that the Virginia Delega-
ton u; Harrisburg declined to vote for Mr. Tyler
as yice-President. no, from del;cacy, had been
supposed but from dis;iust OF the man. Mr. B.
read from speech of Mr.. Tyler in 1889, on the
Removal of the Deposi,es denouncing Gen. Jack
son for setting up his own headstsong will in oPpO-
si;on to tho Legislative power oithe country.
Congress assembled, and VIVA, was the Pres-
dents first act An intinlation that the currency
must be reformed, and u submission to the dssre-
tion OF Congress as 10 which OF thc three modes
they would adopt, by which alone the object could
be effected. Now. Il the President al that time
had determined to sign asy bill for 4 Bank,
