A FACT TO BE REMEMBERED.-Of
the Congress of I790-9l, nineteen mem
bers had been members of the Convention
which framed our Constitution OF these
nineteen. thirteen voted for the first Bank
of the United States. two for the right of re-
peal after March 1902, and four agains; the
Bill. Among those who voted against tie
Bill, was Mr. Madison, who afterwards
changed his opinion and sanctioned the Sc
cond Bank. So that more than twothirds
ofthese statesmen, interpreting the work o.
their own hands, decided that National
Bank was constitutional. Yet the in fate of
this fact. the known opinions of Washing
ton, Knox, Governeur Morris, Hamilton,
&c, and the repeated decisions of the Su-
preme Court, modern democrats say that
National Bank is unconstitutional.
In the same Congress were seven signers
of the glorious DECLARATION OF INDEPEN-
DENcE. Five of these. namely, RoB'T
MORRIS, ELBRIDGE GERRY, GEORGE
CLyMER, ROGER SHERMAN and GEORGE
READ, voted for the charter, and only two,
RICHARD HENRY LEE and CHARLES CAR
ROLL, Tor the right of repeal after March,
1902. These men understood and appre-
ciated :be Liberty for which they had pledg-
ed their lives. their fortunes and their sa-
cred honor" and which they had bequeath-
ed to posterity But modern politicians
say that Bank will take away the Liber-
lies of the People i-Columbia Observer.

THE BANKRUPT LAW

In a speech in Congress last session, Tho.
F. Marshall, of KY, predicted thatthe loco
focos WOULD try to make political capital OF
the ghost of the Bankrupt law, in the next
canvass. To one knowing the course usu-
ally pursued by that party, it could scarcely
be called prediction Be it what it may
it has been fulfilled. The loco stump
orators are laundering away against the
wings. In holy horror of so stupendous an
act of unjust legislation In vain do we
prove that Mr.. Van Buren, sustained bank
rupt law, more unequal in its operations, by
which one class of the community alone
were benefited. In vain do we refer them
to the able and convincing letter of Col. r
NJ. Johnson. 1t is equolly vain to tell them
that this measure was before Congress long
before the wings came into power; that we
have had such law before, and that the
Constitution expressly confers the power
upon Congress 10 pass such law, and
takes it away from The States, evidently con-
an occasion when it would be
necessary to enact such law La vain we
tell them tha; it received the support of dem
ocrats, as we'll as wings; that it was repeal
ed when the wings had a majority in Con-
gress that is no longer the law of the land |
and that no party intends bringing it before |
a future Congress. All this, and all that
can be said, will not serve to direct them |
from this grand object, which is to drag into
he contest, an unnecessary and immateriel
issue, TO relieve them from the burden of
opposition to a National Bank, measure
grounded deep in the affections ofthe peo-
pie, and which time is every day endearing

FROM MEXICO.

| By the arrival ofthe T. S. brig Dolphin
Captain knight, at this port, yesterday, l.
| days from Vera Cruz, via Tampico, We ar,
placed in possession of a few days later in
telligence from Mexico.
p. A. Southall Esq. bearer of despatc h
es from the American Minister at Mexico to
the government at Washington, was pas
senger on the Dolphin, aud proceeds imme
diately to Washington, by the land route
d. S. Hargous Esq. Agent for the Unite ]
States Government at Vera Cruz, shipped
on board the Dolphin S270000 in specie,
being the first instalment ofthe interest due
on the Mexican indemnity. The money
is to be deposited at the New Orleans Mint
today, subject to the order Of the govern
ment for the benefit of the claimants The
first instalment of the principal is due about
the last ofJuly, and the General impression
among the best informed merchants at Vera
Cruz is that the payment will be punctually
made
To the officers ofthe Dolphin and to Mr..
Southall we are under obligations for the sub
joined items of intelligence.
On the day of the departure of the Dol
phin $40 cases of the yellow fever were re-
ported at Vera Cruz The population was
thinning off rapidly under the operation OF
this fearful disease. The report was cur
rent at Vera Cruz that an attempt had been
ade to assassinate Santa Anna. Several
arrests had been made and general tumut
continued. Santa Anna was at Tacubava,
four miles from Mexico, surrounded with
choice troops. The entire population of
the country is represented as in a state offer
ment, and some outbreak OF popular violence
is hourly apprehended.
The Mier prisoners remained at Tact
baya. and were still chained in couples and
were working the streets.
The particulars of Commodore Moore's
last engagement with the Mexican squadron
had been received at Vera Cruz in perfect ST.
lepce-no rejoicing. no triump ph The con-
clusion is inevitable that the Mexica ms are
not al all satisfied with the present state of
affairs in Yucatan.
At the time of the departure of the Dol
phin from Vera Cruz there were two Brit
ish ships of war in port the frigate Spartan.
Capt Elliott, 26 guns, and the sloop SculLa.
Capt Sharp. 20 guns.
The Dolphin was at Tampico on the 2sth
ult and left the same day. A conducta
had just arrived at that place, from Mexico.
with 5000, 900 in specie, considerable por-
ton of which was destined for the United
States. Capt. Knight did not feel himselfl
authorized, although requested, to wait un-
til the specie was prepared for shipment.
