from the yearly receipts Of the Treasury from three
millions Of dollars 10 five millions of dollars. My
own opinion was that the adjustment Of the revenue
ought 10 have preceded these measures. The wis
dom OF this House has ordered otherwise. Now, SIR,
we want money. No one doubts IT, We must pay
the debts Of the nation and provide for It's annual ex-
penditure. How shall we do il You have parted
with your lands. You have no means Of income but
imposts and direct taxation. VIII the gentleman
from South Carolina 20 for the latter, No. he does
not l. he opposed to the formeri VIII he see the
nation dishonored for want of means That gentle
argued against the revenue bill now before this
House That BILL il is said, is in accordance with the
compromise act il So shall vote for IL shall adhere
10 that act | will not now hereafter consent TO
any departure from its principles. shall insist up
on It's principles subsisting contract when ITS
limitations expire VIII the gentleman do likewise
Is he opposed TO the provisions of that acti VIII he
open again the tariff controversy Will he vote for
the raising OF revenue by increase of duty on
free articles
Mr.. PIcKESs. Will not ~ l.2 per cent instead Of
20 per cent increase Of duties supply the wants Of
the Government Will you 60 for that amount
only II
Sir will answer that question when the bill comes
up; have not looked into its details with care
will now say that prefer of the lowest rates
will vote for IL IL per cent if that will raise money
enough If II will not shall raise the dtties TO 20 per
cent
We have heard great deal of late Of war with
England. Gentlemen have acclaimed very eloquently
upon this fruitful theme they have paraLed their
lor before the nation, and are to my mind inclined
either 10 invite war provoke it, The report of the
gentleman from South Carolina last winter has done
much TO excite the public mind upon this subject Our
defences are in feeble and inefficient condition
navy needs enlargement and reinvigoralion hope,
sir nay, believe, that there is necessity for
with England; yet | must confess that the chances
for il are of late Increased Suppose we have war,
are we ready for it No, sir, millions necessary
for defence. We must vote supplies, remain de-
enceless. And in this attitude of affairs, shall
refuse 10 lay the duties Shall we withhold what
is necessary to the honor Of the nation 7 What
wish my friends from South Carolina to do is, with
me to discriminate between duties for and du
ties for protection. Whilst the nation needs money
will go for the former, and shall always oppose the
latter.
The greatest of all the Powers of Europe occupies
as to u.s. threatening attitude, the most gigantic OF
all the Powers of all history And how much soever
both myself andmy constituents deprecate war, we
desire TO be ready TO meet the enemy always prepared
in nina and means.

Most Of the State Legislatures WI probably reaaiy

Of those Who do expressly assent will dissent so
that by the lime that The Bank Is prepared to plant ITS
branches Of the States will either have express
" assented 10 their establishment or by their silence
have authorized an implied assent lfthere should be
some half dozen States that expressly dissent, that
fact will all impair the utility OF this national
institution FoI If in the large commercial capitals OF
the Atlantic States, and If at Cincinnati and Louis
ye or Lexington in the Interior branches be estab-
lshed all the national purposes OF the institution may
be fully accomplished.
Thus Mr. President may this indispensable

or April the furthest Whereas, II II be not estah

probably be next fall twelsemonth before the nation
can realize the benefits anticipated from Bank OF the
United States.
These the views, sir said MIR. o. which he
had taken Of this deeply interesting question lie
believed he shared them With those friends who have
hitherto acted with him. We consider that we have
made great sacrifice Of our own wishes and prefer
ences in conserving the proposed modification othe
branching power But it has been made for our coun
try and our friends. And he ardenty hoped that there
would be Just appreciation OF the concession, and
the spirit OF the concession now proposed that 1t
would be met here and elsewher by corresponding
friendly spirit and that the whole nation might re-
joice in having more restored TO 1t the inesna-

Mr. WHITE addressed the Senate for some time

Union without further legislation by Congress the
States. The money of the people Of the United States

Because II was intended as fiscal agent for the
whole Union and yet il has not footing in any one
