Trorn Mr. Calhoun's Speech delivered in
the Senate oj the United States in 1834.
Whatever diversity of sentiment there
may be as to the means, on one point all
must be agieed nothing effectual can be
done; no check interposed to restore, to
arr$st the progress of the system by the
action of the .States: The reasons already i(
assigned to prove that banking by one '
State compels all others to bank, and that ,
the excess of hinking in one, in like manner
compels nil others to like excess,
equally demonstrate that it is impossible
for the States, acting separately; to interpose
any means to prevent the catastrophe
which certainly awaits tho system and
perhaps ihe Government itself, unless the
great and growing danger to which I refer
-be timSly and effectually arrested. There
is no power any where but in this Government?
the joint agent jf all the States,
unci through which the concert of the action
of the whole can be effected, adequate
to this great tasl^ The responsibility
is upon us, and upon us alone.?
The means can be, must be applied by our
hands, or not at all?a consideration, in
so great an emergency, in the presence
of such imminent danger, calculated, I
would stippos, to dispose all to co ope- ,
ration, ami to allay ercry party feeling (
in the heart even of the least patriotic. (
What means do we possess, und how
can they Lc applied? r
If the entire banking system was tinder f
the immediate control of the General Government,
there would be no difficulty in j
devising a safe and effectual remedy to re-1 (
store the equiUbrum, so desirable between
the specie and the-paper which compose
our currency. But the fact is otherwise.
With the exception of the Bank of the
United States, all other banks owe their
origin to the authority of the several
Slates, and are under their immediate
control which presents the great difficulty.!
experienced in devisiug the proper means'!

be so desirable: ,
Among the means which have been sue-j j
gested, a Senator from Virgina, not now j,
a member of this body, (Mr. Rives,) pro- f
posed to apply the taxing power co snp- (
press the circulation. The reinedv would (
be simple and effective, but is liable to (
great objection. 'The taxing power is
odious under any circumstances; it would
be doubly so when called into exercise '
with an overflowing treasury; and still
more so, with the necessity of organizing!,
an expensive body of officers to collect a| (
single lax, and that on an inconsiderable i
subject. But there is another, and of itself,
a decisive objection. It would be j
unconstitutional?palpably and dangerous-!
ly so. All political powers, as 1 stated!
on another occasion, are trust powers,!,
and limited in their exercise to the subject
and object of the grant. The taxing
power was granted to raise revenue for the
sole purpose of supplying the necessary
means of carrying 011 the operations of i
the Government. To pervprt this power t
from the object thus intended by the Con- t
slilution, to that of repressing the circula- *
lion of bank notes, would be to convert it '
from a revenue into a penal power?a 1
power in its nature and object essentially' ]
different from that intended to be granted (
in the Constitution; and a power, which i*
ill its full extension, if once admitted,! i
would be sufficient of itself to give an en- ]
lire control to this Government over the j j
property and the pursuits of the commit-, |
nity, and thus concentrate and consolidate j
the entire power of the system in this Go-j I
vernment. ' i
Rejecting, then the taxing power, there *
remain two obvious and direct means in i
possession of the Government which may i
be brought into action to effect the object <
intended, but neither of which, either se- '
paralely or jointly, are of sufficient eflicacy,
however indispensable they may be i
as part of an efficient system of measures,
to correct the present or repress the grow
ing disorders of the currency?I mean thai I
provision in the Constitution which empowers
Congress to coin money, regulate
the value thereof and of foreign coin ami
the power of prohibiting any thing but
the legal currency to be received either in
whole or in j>art, in the dues of the Covcrnment.
The mere power of coining i
and regulating the value of cuius of itsi If,
and unsuslained by any other measure. I
can exercise but a limited control over the |
actual ourrcncy of the country, and is in- <
adequate to check excess cr correct dis- i
ordcf, as is demonstrated by the present i
diseased stato of the currency. <
Congress has had, from the beginning, j
laws upon (he statute books to regulate the
r?lre of the coins; and at an early period i
of the Government ihe mint was erected, J
>nd has bcej> in actire operation >rer since;1
md yet. of the immense amount which
has been coined, a small residue only re* j
mains in the country; the great body having
been expelled under the operation of -the
banking system. To give efficiency to
ihis power then, some other must be
combined with it The most immediate
ind obvious is tbat which had been suggested,
of excluding all but specie in the
'cccipts of the Government. This mea-j
mre would be effectual to a certain extent;
but with a declining income, which
must take place under the operation of
the net of the last sassion, to adjust the
tariff and which must greatly reduce the
revenue, (a point of ihe utmost importance
to the reformation and regenerition
of our institutions,) the efficacy of the
measure must he correspondingly dirni
I . .1 n ... . . e *
uisncu. r mm mc nature oi tilings, it
cannot greatly exceed the average of the
Government depositee, which I hope will
before many years be reduced to ihe
smallest possible amount so as to prevent
the possibility of ihe recurrence of the
shameful and dangerous state of things
which now exists and which has been
caused by the vast amount of the surplus
revenue. I
But there is in my opinion a strong, if
not an insuperable objection against reporting
to this measure, resulting from the
(act, that an exclusive receipt of specie in
tin' Treasury, would to give it efficacy, and i
to prevent extensive speculation and fraud j
require an entire disconnection on the
part of the Government with the hanking
system in all its forms, and a resort to the
strong box as the means of preventing and
guarding its funds?n means, if practicable
at all in the present state of things,
liable to the objection of being far less
safe, economical, and efficient than the
presen .
What lhen, Mr. C. inquired, what other
means do we possess of sufficient efficacy,
in combination with those to which I have
referred, to arrest the farther progress ami
erred the disordered state of tne currency?
This is the deeply important ques
VltMl, llllll IKTC Blllllt* <IIVU<I<JII UI OpillKMI
must he expected, however united we
may he, as I trust we are thus for, on all
other points I intend to meet this question
explicitly and directly, without reset vation
<ir concealment.
Aftpr n full survey of the subject, I see
tone, I can conjecture no means of cxtri:atino
the country from its present danger
ind to arrest its farther increase, but a
>ank?the agency of which, in some f??rn.
or under some authority is indispensable.
The country had been brought into the
present diseased stute of the currency by
hanks, and must be extricated by their
agency. We must, in a word, use a hank i
to unhank tlic banks, to the extent that
may be necc/.sary to restore a safe and I
stable currency; just as we apply snow to
a frozen limb in order to restore vitality
and circulation, or h.<ld up a burn to the
[lame to extrnct the inflamation. All tnust
sec that if is impossible to suppress the
>a??king system at once. It must eoninue
for a time. Its great* st enemies
mil the advocate* of an exclusive sner.ie
circulation, must make it a part of their
system to tolerate the hanks for a longer
i?r shorter perio'l. To suppress them at
once, would, if it were possible, work a
greater change in the relative condition of
the various classes of the community than
would the conquest of the country by a
savage enemy. What, then must be
done? I answer, a new and safe system
must gradually grow up under and replace
the old ? imitating, in this respect* the
beautiful process which we sometimes see
of a wounded or diseased part in a living
organic body, gradually superceded by
tire healing process of nature.
WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.
Washington, Sept. 24.
Anotl.cr council has been held to-day
lpon the subject of bargain and sale of
he Indian Lands. A number of energcic
speeches were made by the Warriors
ind Braves, upon the question at issue.
The government have offered them One

Mr. Poinsett remarked that their

Ehipp-cwas was full of bogs and swamps,
ivhile theirs was high and dry, irrigated Innavigable
rivers by which they would he

That they wore not at all anxious to sell

ihpy were sent for?and they wanted what
iheir lands were worth. And what, said
he, is 800,000 among fifteen millions of
people? lie thought this looked a good deal
like M haggling about a price."
There have been "warm doings" to-day
in holh Houses. Mr. Wise 'or otherWise,"
as he is not inaptly termed, hns
l?een storming most furiously foi the week
;>ast against '* the whole universal world,"
ipon the subject of his resolution respecting
the Florida war. lie has must conrngeousiy
Attacked the absent, who of
course, have no means of defending them
stives from his unseemly vituperutlons.
For this reckless, unmanly, and ungenerous
course, he has been taken severely to
task by. several gentlemen from different
States, when yesterday Mr. Gholson. of
Mississippi, took him in hand in good
| earnest. Mr. other-Wise struggled like a
serpent held in a giant's grasp?writhed
and twisted in all manner of forms, and
to-day commenced aguin. Again he was
throttled - by *he "lion of the West,"
and again he was pinned to the wall with
the charge of disgrace stamped upon him.'
Will he resent this?will Wise challenge?
Gliolsdn^?will there be a duel?are questions
at every corner. I answer, No! to
each and all. Mr. Wise is not the man to
resent an affront from one ibho dares to
Jight. (lis courage oozes out like'that of
Bob Acres, at his fingers ends, whenever
he is met by Bynum, Gholson and a few
others. He is only courageous in scenes;
wheie there is no danger of any thing
harder than words. A man who adjourns
a duel for a twelvemonth is not greatly to
be feared.
In the Senate Mr. Kin? of Ga.. made
one of the most fierce denunciations
against the executive, to which I have
ever listened. He was most successfully
replied to by Judge Niles, from Con.,
whose sallies of wit and sarcasm kept
'* we the people" in a broad grin for three
quarters of an hour. Mr. Calhoun then
>aross to reply to some observations which
had faiien from Mr. Ki g. relating purti-l
ctilurly to himself. When he had conclu
ded his remarks. Mr. Rives of Va., obtained
the floor, and instead of speaking
to the question under debate, ho took occasion
t<? make one of the most wanton
personal attacks upon Mr. Culhoun I have
ever heard He called him a new convert
? that the zeal he was manifesting was that
of a new proselyte?that the Senator from
Missouri, (Col. Benton) the former leader
and champion of the administration parly
upon thai-floor, was now content to make
suggestions, and throw out hints to the
gentleman from S. C., who it seemed was
now to be the file-leader of the administration.
The reply of Mr. Calhoun to all
this tissue of disappointed spleen, was
like the man; noble, lofty, and commanding
in energy, and of convincing and witheri
?g power. lie said he had never witnessed
such a display of passion upon that
floor?that in his remarks yesterday upon
the bill of the Senator from Va., he had
given him credit for sincerity at least?
hut if he could retract, any thing he hud
said, the present conduct of the gentleman
would tempt hirn to do so. Does the
gentleman call me a new convert, when I
have advocated these sentiments for years? '
Does he believe me to have recently received
light upon a subject which has engrossed
my uttention for years? Does he
think that I could not foresee the evils of
tin- hanking system; when with the great
i personal popularity of the late President,
with both Houses of Congress, and the
[majority "f the American people to back
him, he jjvas hardly able to overcome the
U. S. Bank. Could I he ignorant of the
dangerous cfloci* resulting from the system?when
I looked back fifty years and
saw only three or four banks, and now <
there are between ei}?ht and i.ine hundred,
and if we go on at tins rale we shall reckon
them by thousands? llo concluded by saying
thai the remarks which hswl fr.1l?n
^ ? i t 111 1
Mr. Rives, were neither worthy of the!
man nor the State he had the honor to represent.
On motion of Mr. Clay, the
Senate adjourned.
IN SEE ATE?Tuesday. Sept. 26.
The joint resolution fixing on Monday
the 9th day of Qetoher as the day of adjournment
was agreed to.
The resolution fixing on ten o'elock, A
M. as the hour for the daily meeting of
the Senate was agreed to.
UNITED STATES B\NK.
The report of the Committee on Finance
on the subject of a National Bank,
adverse to the prayer of the various petitioners
in favor of that institution.
Mr. Clay suggested the propriety of
laying the resolution on the table. lie
stated that such was the course pursued
by the House wlnn Mr. Randolph, hearing
that Mr. Madison was about to send
in a declaration of war against Great Britain,
offered a negative resolution in ad1
vance, declaring it inexpedient to ( eclare
| war. He wished that course to he now
taken. He agreed that situated as we are
it would be inexpedient to establish a Bank
at this time. If this subject was pressed,
he would move an amendment to strike
out the resolution, after the word "resolved,"
and insert "that it is expedient to
establish a U. S. Bank whenever a majority
of the people shall dtsire such an ini
stitution."
| Mr. Webster moved to postpone the
further consideration of the subject un!
til Monday next.
! Mr. Preston wished a longer postponement,
until it should be seen what mea|
sores Congress will adopt. We might
\ rashly preclude members from taking the
only remedy which may be offered. His
, own opinion would depend on circumstances
vet to nrifiP- ftneh ?
^ , U OKIIO t?l
thing? might occur a? would induce him
i to take a (J. S. Bank as the least of
evils, and he would not suffer his private
feelings am! prejudices to interfere with
'the public interest, lie suggested the
! propriety of a longer postponement, until
i we see what measures are adopted. A
ivery large portion of his constituents,
land of the country, thought a National
Bank the only remedy, and he would not
consent to cut off their hopes.
Mr. Morris called for the Yeas and
Nays, which were ordered:
The question was then taken and dftided
in the negative.

Mr. Tallmadge moved to amend the ,
amendment of Mr. Clav. hv strilcihir out

"in the opinion of ihe Senate, a clear ma- |

amendment, by adding to it as follows:?
"but whenever a cle?*r majority of the

Mr. Clay asked for the yeas and nays

Some discussion took place on this proposition
to amend, in which Mr. Calhoun,
Mr. Preston, Mr. NVrighl, Mr. Clay of

Mr. Morris sent to the Chair a substitute
for the amendment offered by Mr.,

but altering the phraseology.

would have had a strange appearance in
the report.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.
Whole bundles of petititions were presented
in relation to Texas?these petitions
are almost exclusively from Women.
A resolution introduced by Mr. Preston
was adopted, inquiring if the purchase of
Mr. M ndison's M unuscripts had been ef-1
fcclcd nnd if so reporting a plan for their
publication.
The Senate then took up the Bill im- <
posing certain duties on public oflicers us
depositaries in certain cases. i
Mr. Walker addressed the Senate at
great length. He denounced the charter
of a National Bank as dangerous to the
liberty of our institutions and particularly
injurious to the interests of the Southwest,
where it would have the means by
its expansions and contractions to injure
the prospects of the planter. He moin-^
taincd that the sub-Tveadury System would
so far from contributing to Executive patronage,
have material]) lessened it, and
drew his deductions* from letters which
ho read from officers of Banks soliciting
the fiscal patronage of the Government.
Mr. W. defended the President's Message
Irom the censure which had been passed
on it by different Senators, he shewed
clear as light that distinguished Statesman
had based his conclusions on correet
data, and proved that all expansions and
crreat credits in England were co-temporaneous.
He defended Mr. Dallas from
the reproach cast upon him for changing
his views in relation to the National Bank
and carried the war into Mr. Clay's own
camp, and shewed from his own speeches
delivered in Auld Lang Sync, that Mr.
C, had undergone strange changes of
opinion.
Mr. Crittenden addressed the Senate
also in fuvor of a P ink, and warning the
Administration not to separate themselves
from the people by passing the Bill before
them, lest they alienated thcin from the
Government.
The Senate has adjourned. Mr. Web
ster has the floor for to-morrow. Tho
question is on Mr. Calhoun's amendment.
Mr. Webster asked him to-day if he had
any further amendment to offer, with a
view to carry out the policy oi the Bill,
Mi. C. replied that he had not.
The House last night, at seven o'clock,
got the anti-deposite bill out of Committee.
This was effected by a compromise
between the friends and the opponents of
the measure?Mr. Cambrelcng pledging
himself that the previous question should
not be pressed till late to-day, and the
other side agreeing that the bill should be
acted on finally before the close of this
day's Kilting. The amendments of Messrs
Adams and Pickens were rejected in Committee,
by a decisive vote, and the bill
will pass, as it was reported, without
amendment.
In ihe House, to-day, Mr. Riddle mado
an ineffectual uttempt'to introduce a resolution,
looking to the limitation of the
Discretion of t!ie Secretary of the Treasury,
in regard to bis discrimination between
different public creditors, in the
mode of paying their demands. The
House refused to admit the resolution, by
suspending ilie rule. The resolution looks
to the payment of members of Congress
in specie, under the Secretary's order.
Tim resolution declaring that it is inexpedient
to establish a National Bank,
wais taken up, but as Mr. Sergcnnt was
disable.! by indisposition from continuing
his remarks in opposition to the resolution,
it was postponed till Friday next.
The Report ?>n the subject of the Mississippi
election was next taken up. It
concludes with a resolution declaring that
M essrs. Claiborne and Gkolson were duly
elected members of the 25th Congress,
and, as suel>, were entitled to seats in this
II ouse. Mr. Maury opposed the report,
and. (Ill lll(. Iinrt r.f llm .r,Irw?ri#wr nf <1...

Committee, offered a resolution declaring
the election of those gentlemen to have
been illegal, and that they arc not entitled
to take their seats in this Ilousc. No result
was arrived at.
The Florida War resolution is completely
overlaid, and the Ilousc is not
sorry to get rid of it, inasmuch r.o it was
nothing hut a stalking horse (or Mr. Wise
? who contrived to keep the house in an
uproar while it was before them, with vociferous
attacks upon the administration,
and some members, political opponents of
the lust Congress, who arc not.now lere.
The affair between him and Cholson
has blown over.
The hill for the postponement of the
Deposites was taken up?the question being
on its engrossment,
Mr. Wise is on the floor opposing the
bill.
Indian Talk. ? On Thursday our
neiglwlxirs of Washington were presented
U'itiv ?n nnn/ii.lim!i.. .. C ?
r,.w. ..o.tty m enjoying the
novel spectacle of an Indian Council or
Talk, held by the lion Mr. Poinsett,
Secretary of War, with the delegation of
Sioux Indians, recen ly arrived there from
the West. A correspondent of the Alexandria
(lazetie, furnishes the following
notice of the proceeding :
Dr. Lauri-V Church, in which the talk
took place, was crowded with the beauty
and fashion of our city, and amongst the
distinguished personages present were the
Secretaries of State and War, Maj. Gen.
IVtcComh, and the principal ofliccrs of the
Government residing in the District.
The talk was opened, by passing round,
agreeably to lm ir.n usage, the long pipe
or Calumet of peace, of which each,
commencing with the Hon. Secretary of
War, took three wi,ill's. After the ceremony,
Mr. Poinsett arose, and delivered
a handsome and appropriate speech, of
which the following is the substance :
"My lied Brethren:?Your great Father
has sent for you from your wild
^imsiiig grounds, to bid you welcome,
and to give y>u assurance of his friendlyfeelings,
towards you and your people,
lie desires me to inform you, that in
order to protect you most effectually
against the encroachments of your white 4
brethren, who, by late treaties, have become
your neighbors, it will be nccesrary
for you to cross the "big river," and to
settle in the lands which your Circat Father
has designated for you. Wc have
met you here to-day for the purpose of
receiving any proposition which your
people may have empowered vou to mnkn
I J
for the sale of lnnils which you are about
to leave, and to arrange other matters for
your comfort and happiness in your new
country. You have passed through a
great many of our towns, and had many
