NATIONAL EXCHEQUER.

We publish to-day synopsis of the National Ex-
chequer with the report thereon by the Secretary of
the Treasury The Importance of the bill will secure
for it the careful consideration of every person. and
the clear and powerful report which accompanies il
will we trust meet the appreciation of our readers
The time has come when the people should investi-
gate the measure, and decide for themselves. Such
is now the situation of paIties that without union
of effort the measure may yet fail, though we hope
for the BEST and think the bill will pass. The srug
gle to defeat it will be on the hand by the advo
Gates Of the Sub Treasury, and on the other BY the
advocates Of United States Bank With neither of
these measures do we concur. So far as john TYLER
is concerned long before he vetoed the bills of the
Extra Session, and before his views were known to
the public, we had expressed in public and published
addresses, opinions hostile to United States Bank
and in favor of Bank of Exchanges believing then
as we do now that such Bank would best meet the
interests and wants of the people. Experience has
shown that the United States Bank was but united
pyramid Of the Glory and the shame of America, -
under the charter of which swndling and robbery to
vast extent were practised By their unjust and
illegal transactions millions upon millions OF dollars
of the treasured earnings OF the people have been
squandered to carry out the splendid system of finance
projected by Bddle Co., to enable the Bank to es-
tabsh its superiority, and hold the sway of moncyed
power in the Western World.
We are aware OF the opposition to the United
States Bank by JACKSON and VAN buren, and know
that much OF the excess into which the Bank ran
to sustain itself against the attacks of these adj
mnstrations but, in opinion this offers no ms
LITIGATION for the Bank Wrong upon the mari Of
these administrations, never, in our opinion ms
tfy the acts of the Bank and in departing from the
rule of right she marched boldly in the path of error
and fell, carrying down with her, thousands upon
thousands, from state Of afluence to the most alb
iect poverty. The United States Bank welded tre-
mendous powers she abused them what guarantee
can the people have that another institution of like
powers would not produce like effects The elements
