From the Washingtou G.obe.
BANK OF THE UNITED STATES.
This institution, in STATE ofrin and infamy
as il is, two thirds offs capital British, aud ne
whole conduct and politics under British iniile
eDct has again become an important po1er--A !.
mas Ter powet- in the politics and business Of
the people Of this Union. The issue Of The
late Presidential seiection has worried l,is
change in her favor; has made her agaiu what
she was years. ago under the Administration ~
Mr.. Adams and Mr. Clay the ally and machine
of Federalism, and controlling power in our
Government. We mention this fact to illus-
trate our own course in relation TO this ins'itnS
tom course which must lead us 10 treat often,
and without reserve, her affairs. The part
which this Bank is to act in the new Admins
ration, and her rotten, insolvent condition,
with hsr foreign character, makes her now an
object tor the constant study Of the Democratic
press. Itis already known that one finer old
hack attorneys-one who could not say that his
soul or his body was his own in her presence:
if it is already pretty we'll known that this old
attorney, whose vocation it has been "to wash
her dirty linen for tie last dozen years, aid to
find his profit in the operation, is to be al Id"
head orthe new cabinet. This is the starG the
sequel will correspond with il; The new cabinet
will not only be National Bank, but viii! be Bid
die baak; they will be the iriehds--the last
friends of Bidde's Bank. All which that ln>
stit.,ion wants done, will lie done. She IS not
only the mother ofcorruphon. and the patron-
ess and manager of the pipe~layers-not only
the corruptur ol politicians and editors, aud the
mother of the election frauds, hut she is the con
Meeting link with the foreign capitalists, ana me
channel through which these capitalists must oP
erate upon the public mind, the elecilons, lie
.n,satlo,,. the commerce, and the banking iD-
teres,, whose none, ed interest required the A
merican Executive to be changed, she acquires
additional power over the new Administration,
+ aud must be gratifed i'll every thing she de-
mands. Among these demands will be The res
:, toraton of the depUSileslhe increase oil the row
enue. to make the depoSltes worth having the
adoption of her notes Ior u national currency
The inclusion of herselfin the formation of new
e National Bank; the expuuging oflhc expunging
C resolution, and the revival Of the original sem
|. tence of condemnation of General Jackson.
IS These are few of the demands which this
i British Bank, which usurps and profhnes' the
: name of the United States. will require from
her vassas in the new Administration, and
which they will grant from gratitude for past la-
~ vors-hope ofnew favors fear of disclosures!
and to strengthen the ally whose strength is
their strength. The urgency of these demands
i. will not wait the slow approach of a stated ses-
sion called session is indispensable to the
10 Bank; nothing else can save her from third
suspension: end in that suspension the new Ad
al ministrat,on would not only lose their most po-
ID tent ally. but incur great disgrace, and furnish
=. a new and powerful argument agalns, any Ma
to tonal Bank IN future. Of all this the new Ad-
a' mlnstralion is fully sensible and hence the sud
e. den movements Of tho old Bank attorneys
,e Messrs Clay and Webster in favor ofa called
il session, and al! increased revenue. Hence al-
