For the AdeocrUscr. at
- w
Ma. EnToa.-Io a form of government ,
like ours, I am satisfied that the people
possess the inherit right, to require of those
asking office at their hands, ti give an ex
pression, of what will be their course upon be
any important measures, likely to be pre
sented befo -o them, in the event of their
elec'i-t. With this conviction I am pre- d
pared t) reply promptly, to the propositions
as made not long since, by "A Voter,"
through the columins of your paper.
With the little knowledge, which I pOs
sess, of the history of t;ie Bank of the
State of South Carolina, I am convinced
that the advantages, that were confidently
expected at its organization, have not 'been
obtained. Its early advocates were san
guine that in its operations the State would
receive such an amount of revenue that
direct taxation would at least he consider- h
ably redu.-ed if not made, merely tin r
miual, and that it would also be to the pe. S
ple, (its stockholders) a source of accom,
modation. That it has in any way had a
tendency to leisen our direct taaaioIn. I
doubt not all are convinced that it h as fail-e
ed; and as to the accommod.tinions which.
were proposel a referenete the comiu- e
nication of of "A Voter"~74 - sufficietnt t h
show that its object in this respect has bpen I
entirely perverted; its own direct andl in. A
direct mainagers'being its favorites. Now
with a view to correct these abuses of pow
er, as practised in the direction of this In- D
stitution, and as a surer guaractee :o the d
-ights of the people, should the citizens ofh
