Ia his opinion thsre was no doubt that
some general legislation on the question
d iinanee would follow very soon after the
Of congress, and there would
b. also other legislation which will be in

In almost every instance where the
resident signs an important act of con

any. bills have excited more public
liervst than the repeal bill. and yet the

emains at the W bite House without a
claimant.
