a mors imposing effect, but also to iM oduc grester harmony snd union, and lo avoid embar rasment. li was to be presumed lhal no one had Ihe most remo desir. to frustrate the proceedui, and pro. shoold on the first or second ballot nx vaiv Iha, upon aa as wwumj the minority would be disposed lo yield, and Jiule with Ihe maioritv so as lo produce the edect contemplated by Ih. foregoing resolution.

He trusted Ihe Convention would adopt il, aod he made the notion accordingly. Mr. ALLEN, ol said he bad Uio honour cfbe ing a member ol ihe commiilee, bul had dissented from ih. resolution under and had done so upon Ihe old republican principles. He believed that ihe great fundamental principle of our government was that we should be governed by Ihe wdl of the majority, and in aaaan.h'v like the ore enU compoaed of mure intellec tual power than had ever been brought tugethcr in this country since ihe days of ihe revolution, as well as of grraier number, he maintained that they ought not to in.roduce a new principle directly, he would say," in the face and eyes" of ihe constitution.

It was upon this ih.i ha had obiecisd. Whoever might be Ihe if he received the votes of the tnajoril, of this Mr. A. would cheerfully subscribe to it, snd give hiux his eotdial support. Ho again eipruaaed a bop that tnis convention wouic not avsrs.

to th. great fundamental principle, of our government, and he therefore moved to amend ihe resolution bv inserting tho word majority" malead of iwo thirds." ith the pureal motives io ihe world we might have a preference for this or that man, and it might be three wieka before amsjorily of two thirds could be fixed ataan An man. Mr. P.V.DANIEL of Virgiuia, made a few remarks in favor ol ihe original Resoluiioc, and Mr. ALLEN briefly rejoined.

Th question was then ikr, Mara. SAWDERS it North Carolina, aod HORN of Pennsylvania annninind tellers, there appeared Ayes 231 Noes 210. so the amendment was agreed to, and i. aa amMndml waa adooted. wia Mr.

SANDERS begged leave lo add a word or iwo in renlv lo the cenileman'a notion un. anarnad bv usssr of llie repubiirao nany.thal in the convention which assembled al Baltimore three yeara ago, and which nominated a di.nn guished individual for ihe office ol Vice President, a re soluiwn was adopted not only in the form but he believed in tho precM. words of the one under considers' inn. Bull if the difficulty contemplated by ihe gentleman from Massachusetts should arise, il would be compel en. at any time for a majority of convention lo reconsider iheir veto and change Ihe resolu'ion.

Mr. S. hoped therefore Iha. the resolution aa reported from tbe committee would be at once adopted. Resolved, Thst the eandidalea for President and Vice President, shall te designated severally "eCen dida' lor Prosidsul first, by the ballot or ballot of the person or persons selected to give the votes of Ihe res neclive Siat.s, without nomination in Convention, and Chat if choice is not made on the firsnbailoiing, Ihe respective delegations, shall retire and prepare for a second ballot, and con.inu this saod ol vo.uig until a aelcction is made.

Mr.SANDERSbrnfly explained. The committer proposed in the brst place, lhat the ba.lot should hrsl and Separately be laken on a choice for President, and then that of Vice President and secondly, that any norn inalion in convention in should be dispensed with. This courso had Vuen recommended for ihe purpose of pre venung any violent, angry, and unnecessary discussion lhal might otherwise arise. Il was presumed that all i had come there prepared lo vote, and necessity for discussion of any kind, which no rood, but on ihe contrary might be productive of much evil. Tbe resolution was then agreed Raoolvwl, Thai a eommitiee of five delegates be .1 i k.

But. (bat there will be excessive un ponations on hand before next fall ha pasted, no calm observer can entertain a moment's doubt The course nftperatioiis of Ihe Bank of late and at present, will mainly have contributed lo produce ihem.

The obiect of the Bank, is 10 encourage excessive im portations, general overtrading, visionary projects, and ine wildest gambling, that great distress and ruin niav follow. It intends to make another effort to obtain a re newal of its charter. Blind indeed must hv be, whocan not descern lhal every movement and act of the Ban, la now directed to lhal The bank well Knows, that ila onlv chance of success will be. bv plunging the country into distress, that relief may be afaiced through na recnartrr. The following ex'raet from a letter now before us, vtnilrn bv a very observing gentleman of Virginia, fully conveys our opinion and benel of ihe power and prevent policy ol Iho Uank.

lisays: Unnma rfAIIVI TOUS l'" er of the Bank of the Cniled ales, and of the baneful influence it exerts over all our social relation, xou see .1 i i revulaung Ibe markets controlling intercourse mdecd, our very na bils and modes of thinking seem iu some messure lo be modified by it and so far from b.ine dead, as some would nave us believe, I nave oui nine uu. now busily engs Ced, at tins momeni, in devising new schemes, and fabricating new devices, lo entangle ine necessitous, ihe ihoughiles. and Iho in tnc i iIm! io errata new nanic, and thus eu deavor lo extort from a siiUVring people, a rechartir, in defiance of tho President. We are pleased to see that individuals in private lite, are becoming awakened to the power, dangrr, and wilia of Ihe Bank. Il is only by keeping the country aroused io a full sense of it inieniioiis, that it can be delea ed.

Lei il but succeed in obtaining a recharler, the people will forever thereafter be ruled by a Bank government. Will it be said that ine Bank is not tho principal en courager of the siock gambling now going en II so, tve sustain charge bv the following facts. 1 he pa pers of the but month inform us, that mere nas prevai. ed in wu.n a speculative rage during the month ol April, vihich has innaied' bubbles Imle inferior w.ld ciess 10 famous South Sea bubble. What band the Bank had in eacoursjiing tins madness in Boston we will Uurng the month of April, the branch Boston extended us business from $3,524,199 lo $4,462 461 an increase of or more (ban Inmuy nve ptr etiu in one month Id ihis extension (he branch has played almost as desperate a game as iho.

whom II haa encouraged lo desperate acts. The return shows, that on Hie 23d of April il had fallen in debt lo the other banks a balinc of 3JS.I3S, and ihe whole ol rs specie was but S278.C62. Besides, it had i individual deposiies, payable on demand, $303,803, and a considerable amount of circulation in addition. lu New York and Plulade phia the spirit for gambling to Ihe nominaiKiO mat mat nommaii couraged by In. Hank.

In Ibu latter city, us loan, nave been increased almost a million and a quarter of dollars, during the last two nrarly Ihe whole upon slocks some i( a Ttductd rait of (Are yurs others for six months, with lint understanding lhal ihe loane are lo be renewed from lime to lime, until Ihe Iwo yeara allowed for windn.g up the atTairs of the Bank shall have expired. A letter now before us, written by a valued friend in Philadelphia, thus speaks ol the gam bling spirit now operating there he newspapers ol Pniladeiphia will acquaint you of ihe rage lor specula lion so rite among us. Slocks are played with as cards or dice, and since the lottery has been legislated cut of doors, iheynnve made ample room for the same spirit, in I granting ail sorts of vile corporations." The Bank feels a necessity lor cloaking its designs. Before il sent the return lor Ihe month of March lo ihe Treasury Department, it sent to New York and had published there, in prints Iri nd.y to it, the amount ol its loans un the 1st of April, with ihe amount at the samo period of some former years, lor the purioso of deluding ihe public and carrying the impression that it had not extended its loans, becausu tney were not greater ihen than they had been on former occasions al ine same season of Ihe vear Notwithstanding these measures of the Bank to con ceal its vast expansions, they have not been permitted to pass believe wub rflVcttoo. The Bank, a continuing to extend durinz the past inonili.has conti nued tolcet a nece sity of giving to ihe public, something in extenuation of Us guilty, wicked conduct.

And what has il resorted to now Who has II selected to bn lis apologist 7 No less an individual thsn Daniel Web ster The Bank's real candidate for the Presidency The manner in which this man has undertaken to impose upon public and in which he has prostituted himself In the purposes ol the Bank, we consider as nagiuous as cojld be resorted to by Hie most abandoned, and must turvver nereatier, we uuna, siam, mm wun tne reprobation of all honest men. We believe a Similar imposition has never been attempted in this or any otti wiatmn Wh.o u.a. at tempted to pass off new ideas In an old speech 7 And yet such an a tempt, haa Mr. Webster made. In the Intelligencer of Salurd.iv, tbe 9ih there is given Mr.

Webster's speech, ma to on the S6ih of February la i. headed Public IJtpunlti. Bank tin UmltH Sioin" which In editors call the attentionof the eupie IO, Ul ui iuhuwiu pi.ciapii I We published, during Hie lat sessien of Congress, a hastv and imperfect tepoit of Mr. Webster's cel lent speech on the Deposne Bill. We are enaol.

today to give a much mure full and accurate report of it, winch, considering Iho interest of the subject, and ihe character of th. speaker, will, late as il is, be accepta ble to our readers." The speech was published Ihe Intelligencer of the 2d ol March. The one published on Saturday is the aame verbatim, with addition ol ihree new paragraphs, manufactured, we believe, at the particular request of ih Rank. One is as follows Seeing that its charter is to expire, and nmiing iisell suffering the hostility ol Uovemmeni, tne Bank will naturally be induced to wind up us affairs successfully, and to make the most it can for the interest of ihe holders and if nothing should occur lo interiupi tbe commercial business of Ihe country. Hie Bank may ap proach the end ol it charier, wi.halarge amount ul loans aad of bills in circulation.

Until these snail dis appear, and be replaced by a new capital and a new currency, there will be no Experiment' at all. The Bank would appear now to oe umng a. ix'go a ousiness as usual. though deprived of the Government Depositee. lis nerlrcl credits and it good management enable it lo dothia.

There has been, iherelore, no withdrawal of ha means of circulation and exchange by bills. In the mean lime, ihe deposiies have gone lo Stale Banks, and have increased, of course, ihew ability. If, atterlbe Bank of the Untied Stales shall have withdrawn its loans and bills, auJ wound up all its affairs, it shall appear that five or six hundred Statu Banka shall be able, (or any length of lime, lo furnish a currency as safe, as universal, as much accredited, as effectual lor the purpose of cheap exchange, as has been lurnuhed by the Bank ol the United at as, and all this ui iii.es of adversity, as well aa in times of prosperity, ihen the experiment mav be said to base succeeds. He was not one of those, Mr. W.

said, who expected such a result. On Ihe contrary, he looked not only lor great inconvenience in the important concern of internal exchanges, but for sreat irregularities in tne paper currency of the coun'ry also, in moments ol commercial pressure or di vaster, if it were left entirely subject Im the interest or the discretion of so great a number ol ataie insiiiuuons. Can any one tail perceive, mat a pari oi in is para eranh was prepared by Mr. Webster for the express aod sole purpose of jus.ifyuig.lhe Bauk in its pernicious ex. psnshHM What will be thought of Mr.

unexampled condition ihe country jiis.d) the Bank in ho ding its amount or loans as mgn as now it is ine collection of fifty five millions a thing that can be dune suddeuly 1 Uthers mav lake a different view ol tne subject, but, lor one, I confess, thai unless there be reasonable ground lo expect a continuance ol ibe charter lor somo lime longer or shorter, I think any such lurlher extent of loan would be a measure ol most uooueulionable propriety Nod aibt, if ih. Baik might expect lo be couiinued, even for a short period, and cipaoajly if iu relation lo ihe Government were restored, by causing il lo become hereafter, as haa been hcretolorr, the depository of the public moneys, it might sifelv aturaeui its discount, and efficiently relieve Ihe public distress. A law lhat should continue tne Bauk rvm lur a short liaie, and that should r. its relations with ilic Government, which are now broken off by the removal ol the deposit, would ouiet Ihe country immediately, and affd much reliell 1 nav. no uouoi, mat un Business ut the now opening vear migbl aod the oolicy which threatens to bo numb the business of the bole cououy for the naxt twelve months, avoidud." In 1834.

On 9ih of October. Mr.

Biddie. in a letter to Mr Ingham, said, "They (the directors) hve instructed me lo say in reply, lhat observing, aa ihey do with great pleasure, that the views which they thought disclosed in your previous correspondence, are disclaimed, the whole object ol the board in rent wing il is accomplished end von teill have the loodnen to consider tne remarks bearing on the presumed assertion of Muse cities a no longer appli cable. Yet, notwithstanding the strong language of Mr. In ham. and ihe aco mance of by (be Bank, as bearing fnll evidence, which was satislaclurv lo Ihem at Ihe lime, lhal Ihe administration would preler the hoetility lo aniv of Ihe Bank as a volUical engine.

Mr. ro sier luund to possess the hardihood lu renew char' ges ol the Bank agamsl the adniinir.ral.on, ol wishing Ihem lo make II a subservient politico I instrument. The third ul new mauufac.ured paragraphs, is the following It is well known to be my opinion that direct was done to the Bauk in ihe withdrawal of the de positee and injustice hss been done to it aUu, as I think, by tbe gross and unfounded imputations made upon Us general management. Tbe Bank now, for many years, has accomplished every object intenJed by its establishment. It has reformed the currency, sustained it when reformed, and upheld a system of mlo.

nal exchange, safe, cheap, and ol unprecedented and unparallelled lacility. No country ha seen the like nor shall we see soon again when the operations of the Hank shall cease I he Directors, of late years especially, have had a dim. cult and most undesirable duty lo perform; bu. Ihey have peiformcd it, as 1 think, with entire uprightness and great ability. Every lair investigation has proved ibis, and the slate of the Bank itself, the best of sll proofs, abundantly ahuws it.

The time will come, I am aure. when justice wi'l be dono Ihem, universally, as it is done ihem now by those who have sought lor inlormation, and have formed Iheir judgments with candour and good sense, gull, pari.y on coi sli utionalal grounds, and partly on other grounds, a majority os Ihe People appear lo have decided against renewing ihe charier. In this, there is one asiertion in which we agree with Mr. Webster. The time iri.7 come when justice utUI be done the director! of the Bank." When true condition of the Bauk comes lo be known, which no fair investigation" has been permitted yet lo reach, then justice vill be done the JJiitclort.

When ihe widows and orphans who have bern seduced, by lake statements, lo invest their Imle all in the stock ol this Bank, shall find, altera lapse of years, that they will never have returned to them three fourths of tho money ihey paid, then the Di' Ttetort uiit have jiutice done them. When nation finds thai its money cannot be returned winch is invested in ihe stock of this Bank, because of the many lar gesses paid to senatorial counsellors loans made tor political purposes on inadequate security prinhng panic and political speeches and Iruni divers other irregular and improper dispositions of ihe funds of tho Bank, ihen trie ucv nil nave justice ilone Uiem. These three paragraph, are poslAunwtM. There is not in the reports contained in the three daily papers, one word has the least a.lu.ion to what contained them. The fate of ihe Bank, in its efforts for a recharler, and thai of Mr.

Webster for the Presidency, are united with each other if one succeed, both succeed; if one fall, both fall. Mr. Webster has now, therefore, in an old gu.se, lent htmselt lo the service of the Bank, suportiug his own cause ai the same tune. The laws the country, condemn those detected in fabricating false coin, lo hard labour in the Penilentia ry, or other public prisons. How much lighter ought ibe punishment lobe, lor one detected in fabricating, lor the purposes of deception, false statements or false speech es The same in regard io him who circulate, false coin, and him who circulates lalse speeches.

Which ought to be guarded with the greatest care by the lawa ol the country, lhal which merely aflects ibe pocket or that which affects tbe mind ol society in general I As we have belore stated, Ihe Hank is to make anoth er effort to obtain lis recharler. Mr. Webster is to aid il.

MAY S3. Tbe American of last evening copies our article of the day previous, on the subject in discussion be tween ns, a courtesy the more gratifying as it wa wholly unexpected, that paper having acted very differently in a late controversy with the Evenin Post, on a constitutional question. We must ad' mit that we were more surprised at its total neglect of our request in the former instance, than at the unsolicited fiankness of its present course inaa much as the professed object of both journals, in the previous discussion, was exclusively to elucidate nd establish certain constitutional principles and we think we may add that the dispute was conduct ed, on both aides, without acrimony or violence.

Tbe American, however, in now placing our re marks btfora its readers, has taken care to accompany them with a reply distinguished by more than its usual ingenuity of argument and as we are bound, in turn, to copy its article into our columns, we might see reason to deprecate the candour ol this mode of controversy, did we not trust with con fidence to the goodness of our cause to supply any deficiency of its advocate. But whichever antago nist may be affected injuriously by this honourable and ingenuous plan of newspaper discussionit is ob vious that the interests of truth and justice must be secured and since both journals profess to desire only thai the right may prevail, neither can have cause to complain of the result. And to tho end that the result may be arrived at by calm reasoning, as littlr influenced by passion or prejudice as the nature of tie subject will admit, we shall scrupulously rtfrain from using any expressions in regard to Captain Creighton such as the American alludes to as causing a strong repugnance" to our The American must excuse us if we doubt that it circumstances. Had he filled an important military station; had he afterwards been accused of having acted in his official capacity with the most revolting barbarity and injustice; and had this accusation been publicly made, in explicit and categorical terms, through a newspaper ol wide circulation, by an individual of untmpeached respectaoihtv ofpn. vate character we cannot think that he would choose to be defended upon no better ground than that on which the American defends Captain Creighton the length of time which liae olapscd aiiuS ftl llvv l.

piMumpliva vi.l.. in his tavonr from the charges having been passed over by two Secretaries of the Navy; and ihe supposed quo animo of the accuser. The editor of the American would thank no friend to step fotwaid with such an imperfect defence, which might almost be considered an admisssion of the truth oi the charges. If nothing better than this could be said, he would rather suffer the accusation to die away unanswered, not cause it to be reiterated and bruit ed through the whole country by ineffectual opposition. If something better than this could be said if the charges could be shown to be untrue or grossly exaggerated, he would permit no friend to thrust before bim the ineffectual shield of a supposititious 3tatute of limitation.

He would confront his accu ser lace to face, before the bar of publick opinion he would drag him into a court of justice to answer for is slander or present himself before a competen tribunal, and demand to have his character cleared by an adequate investigation. We take the liberty ot supposing that such would be the course of the editor of the American, be every honourable man who felt that he had been cruelly and causelessly aggrieved. We are a are that there are impracticable difficulties in the way of such a course in regard to Captain Creighton. We have no dout that tho American governed by the kindest feelings towards that officer, and that it is sufficiently aware of the truth of the allega tions against him to know that a publick investiga tion ia the last thins to be desired in his case. It is with this purpose, probably, that it seeks to turn tbe current of discussion from the facts which we allege, to the motives by which it supposes wc are governed, and points out the various grounds on which Captain Creighton might resist atrial.

But the American ought to bear in mind that waa wilh no hope or purpose cf bring ing aim to trial, that various acts of his tyranny were related. They were introduced incidentally, in ai article on an alleged outrage committed by anotier naval officer, and fur the purpose of illustrating tbe species of abuses which are committed with impunity in oar navy, by reason of the deplo rably defective system on which our Courts Martial are organized. This was the object ol several pre vious articles on the subject ol the great injustice of which Doctor Wily was the victim and this object we intend to pursue, until the reformation lor which we ikrive shall be brought about. If in doing this, facti within our positive knowledge, in which the character of Captain Creighton is involved, can be uses to advantage, we certainly cannot perceive, in the ama which has elapsed since those facts occur red, or in the remissness of Uie Navy Department in ncvti having bad them investigated, a reason to prevent us from availing ourselves of such assist ance. Tie case which the Amciican puts of a complaint before a Grand Jury ia ingenious, but we do not think wholly analogous.

If a Grand Jury were composed of a single individual, instead of twenty. four citizens promiscuously collected from a whole comdunity and if a complaint laid before it, on respectable authority, involving matters ol seriously affectng the highest interests of society, were dis missed, once and again, without the slightest form of ityestigaUon the individual whose complaint had keen so treated would scarcely be deemed too dionatioo of tbe publick, in such a case, would pro bably be aroused, but not against the accuser for persecution, but against that dishonest Grand Jury which had to wholly violated ila most solemn oblt cations The American givca a classical air to its 'article by cjuoting a sentence Irom Tacitus an author for whom it baa heretofore shown a fondness, by quo ling his language on a leaa justifiable occasion. Tbers is in Uie present instance, however, no rea vve bave oahtto bring uapuin jretsmon to mat, bas itself shown that we were animated by a seatiment Tery different from tbe hoarded and con cealed malignity referred to by Tacitus. The American thinks that those persons only whose feel injs have been stirred into ebullition by hatred retain any memory ol opposition and outrage, and asks, what are they likely to ifter the expiration often years, of a cruise diffetin so little to them from other cruises Yet does not the American perceive that on their recollections we must rely to substantiate our charges. If Captain Creighton thought them so oblivious ai the Ameri can seems to suppose them, we should long ere this have heard him, with much affected warmth of in donation, demanding a trial of the Government, nd of the civil courts damages for libel.

The A merican, having inadvertently done injus tice to one of the editors of this paper by asseting that liis leaving the navy was a result of his trial by Court Martial, has promptly taken the only proper step to enable it to rectify the crrour. This was no more than we expected from that journal, to which we did not impute any sinister or unwortiiy design in making the statement referred to. Wo d'd not ask for the Post's opinion of the littlr paper referred lo, but of the proposition by lhat paper, relative lo the public lands. The above is Irom ihe Times. In order to the proposition relative lo (he publics, lands by the little paper referred to, il is necessary, in nur view of the duty tf a journalist, to read the proposition as put forth by that paper not to take il as slated on hearsay by another print, which, in ihe very terms it employs, shows that il is not governed by a spirit of fairness and impartiality.

If journal in question is in truth a "dirty Imle paper," vie shall probably leave tbe question about the publick lands lo be discussed between it and the Tunes, and shall stand by as unconcerned as Ihe spectator of ihe combat between the skunk and rattlesnake. If by calling it a dirty little paper," the Times merely meant lo imply that il was the opposite ol itself, we shall lake up its proposition about the publick lauds readily, and as the case may be, oppoe it or defend it, as the opinion of a worthy antagonist or compeer.

For the Evenini: Post. TO THE PEOPLE OP THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Fellow Citizens We already havea partnership law enabling capitalists to invest a limited amount, be yond which ihey are not responsible. Cut by the present law there must be at one general all whose property is liable. This latter regulation I would have disper.scd with, for 1 bold il lo be unwise to establish laws whose only effect is to create inconvenience to honest men, and which knaves can without difficulty evade.

The only effect of the provision in question i lo causo a company who are about forming a Iimitod partnership lo look about fir an individual whose distin guishing qualification is that he has no private property beyond bat investment iu the company concern. But in lieu of ihia imaginary safeguard, I would have others of reai validity substituted. Among these are the following. 1st. Previous lo the commencement of operaiiona, general notice should bo given through the publick prints, ef the formation of Iho company the amount of iheir capital stick by whom owned the na.

lure and extent ot their contemplated business, and the amount of the responsibilities which under anyemer geucy Ihey were to incur. 3d. Al given regular periods a publick statement should be made of the amount of their means as well as of their liabilities, and also, the changes any, which have laken place in the members of iheir company. 3d. In tbe original advertisement the names is doing towards Captain Creighton as the editor of I 0fone or nice of tbe fiim should be given as of individuals that paper would choose to be done by in similar I responsible for faithful management oi its operations, and any fraud, whether in missiattnt; tho amotiut of capital paid in and available, or in disguising the real slat, of affairs, or in issuing notes, or incurring other liabilities beyond tbe amount first Ldverlised, should render those entrusted with the management of the concern liab to penal its as severe as tlioso lo which counteiiriters are subjected.

If oi her members of the company were conversant of the fraud they should be visited with like punishment and the individual prop erty of all stockholders should be rendered liable if any fraud of the above ca.ure be practised even without Iho knowledge ol Ihe stockholders, if by exercisiex due Ihey wouH mv. a.laina.1 lo ll.a litge of it. me unobjectionable means shou aiso be devwed, by which individual scrutiny into the management of the affair, should be facilitated and subjected lo u'icsc and perhaps a few oilier regulations of a similar character. I would have free permission giveu to any number ol individuals to form themselves into a company for any honest and lawful purpose. It will be readily perceived, from ihe foregoing regula tion, thai their o'jcc are threefold 1st.

Tho publica tion of ihe knowledge the nature and operations of I lie company; Snd. To provide for the detection of fraud and 2.1. To punish it. Whatever tends to the accom plishmrnt of either of these objects creates no curtail mem of any reasonable liberty, and in a they are all ihree attain. no other restraints will be needed.

But by the provis ons above set lorth, il will be readily eeu lhat aome of ihe present oljecis of incorporated companies are not al'auialile rail roads and canals particular could not be constructed, since the proprietor of a single farm through which the improvement must needs pass, would be ablo to put a final veto lo its construction. And although such a result mijthl not be fre quent, still it cannot be doubled that the individual own ers ol property, necessary or highly import anlto the cause such, it seems to us, would be Ihe course of company, would lake advantage ol the eccasion cx tort an exorbitant compensation. In Tact, without powers superior to those now enjoyed by individuals or copartnership associations, they would undertake works of this nature. As internal improvements are so evidently for the publick advantage, und so jus ly favoured by the public sentiment, every reasonable facility should be afforded for their construction One method of overcoming the just allu ded to is to have all these works constructed by the state Government. This is infinitely preierabte lo iheir con strticiion by incorporated companies.

But in order to facili'ate works of this nature, and induce joint stock companies to undertake them, I will hazard a suggestion it bout, however, evincing any deciJed approbation for the scheme therein sketched.

And wuh a lare portion of the Southern slave holders, thu consider. lion is paramount to evory Ihing else. Many of ihem will vote far no man for President thai lives 111 a free state. To this fact may be attributed much of ilia prejudice against the elder and younger Adams. Mr.
