Senator Bigler indicated by Senator Cam

In the debate on the Fishing Bounties,
in the United States Senate, on the 18th
inst Mr.. Bigler, of Pennsylvania, opposed
the proposition before the Senate, and
moved an adjournment. Mr. Cameron re-
quested that he would withdraw the motion
for moment which was done, and he then
described his colleagues tariff views as
follows:
Mr.. Cameron.-"I desire only to say a
word in vindication of my colleague, and l
think in justice to him and myself | should
be permitted to say that word for you know
| do not often occupy much of the time of
the Senate. 1t is that | am satisfied he is
acting in accordance with his we'll known
principles. He is, / believe, freetrade man,
if | can judge him from his acts. remem-
Der that at the close of the last session the
reduction Of duty on our great staple, iron,
was made, if not by his motion, at least by
his vote. He agreed to it, and was perfectly
satisfied with it. The result has been to break
up every iron master in Pennsylvania who
had not an immense fortune beyond his busi-
ness in trade. Every man who was at all in
debted in his business has been DESTROYED.
The iron business Of Pennsylvania, about
which gentlemen speak here, is no longer an
lnterest. No man, unless ne has fortune
that he has inherited or obtained from sources
beyond his business, is capable of conducting
furnace for day.
at may be the policy of my colleague, and
it may perhaps be a wise one, to break down
all these interests, so that after while we
shall stand upon common level, when we
shall be compelled again to return to that
protective American policy which our fathers
instituted, and which took care of the country
If we were to destroy the duty on salt now,

This was the apparent condition of the bank
at the failure. Its assets, as per inventory
and appraisementmade under the assignment,
February 3, 1857, were nominally nine hun
dred and eighty thousand three hundred and
seventy -fourdollars and sixteen cents, and were
appraised on that occasion at five hundred and
forty thousand eight hundred and ninety
i've dollars and eighty-six cents. This last
sum is not, however, to be taken as their ac-
tual value. Up to this time one hundred and
fortyseven thousand eight hundred and IF
teen dollars and sixty-nine cents have been
realized and though it is believed that some
thing considerable will still be recovered, yet
1t will fall far short of the appraisement
Of the notes in circulation at the date of
the failure, four hundred and sixty thousand
and twenty-fOur dollars have been received by
the bank In payment of debts due to her,
leaving still outstanding six hundred and
iorty'slx thousand and twenty-five dollars,
from which Is to be deducted three hundred
and nlDety-six thousand nine hundred and
ten dollars redeemed by the Girard Bank, as
agents OF the Lancaster Bank for this pur-
pose, and On which a balance of about thirty
seven thousand dollars is due the Girard Bank,
but secured by collaterals.
May lS5l-the question arises, what has
become of it2
In attempting to reply, the first thing that
attracts attention is the fact that not dollar
seems to have been abstracted from the bank
without nominal equivalent If the paper
and securities on hand could be converted in
30 cash at par, the bank would be solvent
But most OF them are worthless, and the bank
IS broken-the process of its ruin being
equally certain and fatal as if effected by
bold theft, though more adroit and impercep-
hble. The means employed were various,
and may be thus classed:
l. The diseounting Of doubtful or worthless
paper by the ofhcers-a practice which com
menced under the former charter and contin.
ueo tIii near the failure. 1t is in evidence
tnat iuily one half of the discounting was
done in this way ""'
II would be as useless as tedious, were it
possible, to specify all the cases of this kind

OF this amount small portion has been
collected by the assignee, as appears by his
detailed statement on the subject, and more
may still be recovered. But taking into view
the whole Of this class of irregularly dis
counted paper, it is safe to assert that the loss
upon it will fully equal the whole capital of
the bank.
According to Mr.. Rathvon, $4,000 of
Sterrett's has been paid, $4,000 secured on
mortgage, and 1000 by endorsement and
some compromise made l believe between
the parties. OF Twins $4,000 has been
paid. None of the above are to be blamed
for getting all the money they could, but
the officers of the bank who gave it ought
to have been punished, and the directors
who suffered themselves to be deceived in
so credulous a manner, ought at least to
have suffered some.
