(>»• rat tiuaicu u« utn*u.j MR. CALHOUN, THE BUB TREASURY SYSTEM, AC. f Concluded.) Tear correspondent denies that the principle* •f tks M«U|t In** always been the prinri|Jfi •f IHa Stale Right* men, and the Sub-Tteotury at atom their system," ami “conaiders (ham di rectly antagonistic*! to Slate Righu prinei(4«s.” Ae already obaeiard, what be or 1 “consider," la little to the purpose. Tlir question ia, what can we prove, to conviction?—and ae this particular eoualituiea the pith and marrow of the matter, I mutt beg leave to trespass tome*hat farther on year celumna, to submit seme portion of the evi dence in aupport of my position. Aa Mr. Clay, and o hereof-the- moat able and influential members of the opposition hare de clared, the only alternative ia between the Sub Traaaury ayatnu an I a National Dank—ami aurh it alavaye bae been, till the “experiment” of the Tel Banka, which ia of recent invention,and now aiplodcd, at leaal beyond the chance of permit, naul exiatrncc or conaideralion—while the Suh- Treaaury or katd money «y«lcm, in the worda of Mr. Calhoun, “an far from (icing an cipcrimenl. er tome new device, ia only returning to the old inode of collecting and dithuraing public money, which,for thousands of ycara,haa henu the practice of all enlightened people till within the la*t centu ry." Parties (in this country) wcre s fir*t formed on this alternative, of a hard-mtney aystein or a National Dank, in the Convention which ftaiaed tha Cuiiatitution, aa will ha scan by re'crcnce to the rccorda of that Convention—the old Federal, now Whig, party, striving for a National Bank, and repeatedly introducing, directly or indirectly, clauses to empower (he chattering of one ; and the Republican, now Stale Rights, patty, against such an institution, and always defeating said clauses. To place the mailer beyond all doubt, clturct distinctly indicating such an institution, and giving the power to incorporate generally without any direct reference to a Dank, purlieu latly, were severally offered and rejected —so tha* congress clearly has no power to incorporate at all, and of course not to incorporate a Banking company. Moreover, for two years after the adoption of the Conolilnlion, the Sub Treasury or hard-money system was the one practiced by i the Government, and therefore, ia, of c-oir-e, the 1 aystein of the Constitution. Vci, notwithstanding 1 all this, the old Federal or Whig parly, whiclt ( has ever opposed the Sovereignly of the Suites, ( and struggled to strengthen the Federal Govern- I Dent against them, under (lie loose “general I * I welfare" notion, and a liberal construction of the | Constitution, has ever contended for such an in- ( atitution, aided by the monied power of the conn- j try—while the Republican or Stale Wights parly, v true to their old faith, and contending for a strict ti literal construction “f the constitution, have ss * uniformly opposed it, a* unconsti utionul, inei- " pedienl, and dangerous to lilicrly, and contended „ that the only constitutional currency is a hard n money currency, under ivhal is now called the a “Bub-Treasury syalsin:" And it ia well known that Mr. Jarrsuson, “ lbs great Apotllo u( Lib- u erty,” and lung the acknowledged head of that c party, was uniformly and decidedly opposed to a 'J National Dank, of any kind. " Mr. Calhoph, in kia speech of I9lh September last, dsclated that “ the Stale Kighta parly, at all y limes, from the In-ginning of the Government to 1, this day, haa hern opposed to a National Hank, as tr unconstitutional, inexpedient, and dangerous;" * and, ao far aa 1 have seen, no one has denied it— nay, no ona will dare to do so. Doting theses- f( sion of 1833 and ’4 he declared himself on the t Buh-Trcssury or hard-money system, as follows: “There i« no other alternative, 1 repeat* * you must divorce the Government entire y I 1 from the Banking system, or if not, you are 11 bound to incorporate a Bank at the only safe 11 and efficient mean* of giving stability ami tint- 11 fortuity to the currency. And should the * depusites not he restored, and the present il legal and unconaiitnl.unal connection between J 1 the Executive anti lic league of Hanks con- ' linuo, 1 shall feel it my duty, if no 0110 else h move*, to introduce a measure to prohibit " Government from receiving or touching Dank 1 notes in any ahapo whatever, ns the only • means left of giving safety and stability to the 1 currency, and saving the country from cor- > ruption and ruin." v In the September of the saute year, (183-4) v ’ Mr. I.xiuii of Virginia, a decided State Rights man, whose cto-e intimacy with Mr. Calhoun is wall known in Washington, and who I know s messed with him in Ihst city during the session 1 of that year (1833-4) —in reply to a number of It cilittns of Richmond, V*., who addressed a letter ‘j to him, siiqniring “the true moaning” of a oet lain passage in one of his sjieecues iu-lhc Batiste, j and what would he his future course-towsrU the ( Bank of the United Htalcs, thus doefsros hiiusell 1 in faror of a hard-money or Suk-Ftrasury sys- > I tem: , “In my opinion, the framers of the conali- r tutiun had no ttiought of any bank agency ( whatever, Statu or Federal, either for factli- j Uting the operations ot tlie Treasury or for regulating the currency; andthatlu administer the Oovvrufflcnt in the true spirit ol the con stitution and aecordisg to the intention ol its I founders, the Treasury ought to ho divorced i from ail connexion with banks. State or Fe- < derai.” 1 “At the same time, I have no expectation ( that thia principle wdl ever bo acted on to its t full extent. Tint friends ol the Slate Hanks, (lie friends of a National Bank, and the sup- | porters of the Executive claims to power, will all combine agamat it.” And again, in the next month (October) of th, same year, in a speech dehvcied at a dinner 1 given him by the cilixcns of Petersburg. Mr. Leigh dcclatcs himself in favor of that system, as follows —and to similar is bis plan of carrying out the details, that it would seem as though Mr. Van Durcn must have had this extract before him, when he penned hi* recommendation of that system to Congress, three years afterward-- “Let a general Treasury office be establish ed at the seat of Government, under the man agement of a treasurer, and local Treasury offices established in each of the St .tea, as many as should be convenient, -jtidur tliu management of assistant treasure eg; requiring bond an ! security from the treasurer and ra intant treasurers for the fait'itful performance of tneir tru-t —let the revenue be deposited m these offices as it should be collected—give powcrlo the Secretary ot the Treasury to re move redundant faiuU from one office to another, where convenience should require them to be disbursed—g ve power to Hie trea surer to draw warrants on any office he should think proper, guarding the power by suitable and efficient chocks—make it ombezilembtit and felony in him wilfully to issue any war rant, except under authority of law, at the hid ding of any parson whatever} and make it etn leialement and felony in any assialani trea aurer to ttao for hia own purposes, lend to other*, or pay away any money, except to warrants drawn by the treasurer* in due form of law.” Mow this speech and system (tha “Sub-Trea sury system" to a hair,) wart vi-dcnllv and redtlahsl* assailed and denounced by tlis official organ of Oen Jackson, and dost of Mi- Van Butcu, immediate ly that Uuy appealed m prim, cannot hut be icmcmUicd by the readers of the Globe, and if; out pajier—ext tails from the com ments of the fnrmri, having l*sen copied by you 1 into the Chronicle and Sentinel within a few 1 months past, I now come to the introduction of this “Sub- Treasury system," into Congress, by Mr. Gordon and Mr. Roto-rlson, Mute Rights men, during 1 the session of 1831 ant* 5 ; and for n clear Ind correct history of it, avail myself of the billowing extract from the able article o( “/‘utricle Henry," No, I, in the Hr former of 11 th October instant : “Viewing then this new scheme as but the separatum of the Government (rum the (Jinks, I shall proceed to show (hut it did not, in fact, orgniatc wild Mr. Van Durcn. I am prepared to show, by evidence not to lie rebutted, tint 1* its origin it is a Wiiio MCASL'RE ! From the Journal of the House ol Repre scntal voa ot February lltli, 1835, the follow ing extract is given : “The Mouse resumed the consideration ol the bill (No. 503) regulating tin: deposited of the money olThc United Mutes in certain 10. cal banks. Tin: question recurring upon mo tion made by Mr. Robertson, that the said bill be recommitted to 1 lie Coniinitlcu of Ways and Means, with ixarnticTiox.v ho to a- SCItU THE HAM KAH TO DISPENSE WITH THE AOENCT OR INH rUI MK VI AMTV OP HaNKH IN THE FISCAL OPERATIONS OP THE GO VERNMENT, THE VOTE STOOD—YEAH 1)1, NAYS 115.” 1/-1 it be borne in mind that this proppaiiion embodying the very essence of the sub Trea sury system, was made by Mr. Robcrtssn, of Virginia, an unyielding {Status Righu Wing. Let it be remembered, ( slso, that the 91 voles in the nffi-mative were almost without excep tions Wings. Scarcely an adniinia'.ration vote among the 01 affirmative, and scarcely an opposition man among the 115 negative vote*. Here then is tin.- strongest evidence of the Whig palcrninily of Hie measure winch wo are now so prune to condemn because 11 comes (n us in the form of a recommendation from the present Executive and Ins par'y. While the bill to regulate the depusites of the public money in the local hanks was under consideration, Gen. Gordon of Virgin ia, a State Rights Whig, submitted, byway of amendment to the hill reported by the Committee of Ways nod Means, a short hill, evidently prepared without much deliberation or care, ihe principle of which was a separa turn of he Government & hanks. A large par ty in Congress, numbering almost the entire Wing parly,considered the State Hank system as tending greatly to increase Executive pat ronage; as being unsale depositories ol the na tional funds,and ns capable of being made the instruments ofa powerful and dangerous po litical influence. Whoever will take the trouble to rend the debut vs on this subject, will lind tins to be Ihe tram of argument em ployed by the Wing speakers,while the reveise was the course of reasoning of the friends of the Administration, Hence the origin of Gen Gordon's hill. The bill of Gen. Gordon, gotten up in this way, unimproved by the suggestions of friends, wanting entirely in details, was ol moat necessarily defective. And ilwnstlns wont nf details that rendered hm hill objectionable, 1 and gave occasion to Air. Robertson's propose , lion tu "commit the hill with the various amed mend, to ike Committee if Ways ane. Means, with instructions to report ihe best i-racti- I cable plan of conducting the fiscal concerns j if Ike Government without connecting it with ■ moneyed corpo'a/ions." This proposition of Mr. Robertson, be it recollected, was submit- ' Led pending Ike discussion of den. Cordon's * full, and hud necessarily relation to the defec tiveness of the bill,for us the bill of Gen. G.con- , lained lire naked principleupon which Mr. R. and all the Whig party were agreed,there was no necessity to seek after any better plan, it 1 the bare principles, and net details, was all 1 required. In Irnlli, Gen, Gordon himself con -0 de ed hit lull d«fsc!iv<'. Such is the plum Inslory of this matter, 1 and from it, it is perfectly manifest that the 1 plan of dispensing with the agency of Hanks 1 in the fiscal operations of the Government is , 01 Whig origin. It is essentially a Whig measure. Mr. R’s motion was plain and un- ' ambiguous—it could not ho ntisnderslood.— 1 It embodied only the abstract proposition that I n was expedient tu divorce the money and po litical power ot the country, it was express- . ly grounded, too, as before said, upon the ud- 1 mission that the bill of Gen. Gordon was do- 1 lective in ds details. It may he safely vs- < sorted, therefore, that every member who vo. tod for the re-oomtniitnoni with the instruct- . lions moved by Mr. Robertson, would have voted or any matured practicable plan which would put asunder the Government ami the 1 Banks. 1 If lam correct in those positions, tins Whig 1 party hove sanctioned the Hob-Treasury , scheme, and they arc nl onoc relieved of all ( inducement as well as all pretext for condein- ning it because now it comes to them ns a measure of Executive recommendation. They ' did sanction the principle with almost period I unanimity in 1835. If they condemn it in ] 1837, they will but desert their own cherish- , cd principles. They will expose themselves , most justly to the charge of inconsistency, and they will find it extremely difficult to vindicate themse ves before the people from the grave imputation of abandoning their own measure simply because they are enforced by the recommendation of a particular Chid Magistrate, and supported by his friends,” The fallowing arc the Vent and .Vi tyo on the motion of Mr, Robertson," to recommit Ihe bill [the Administration bill, regulating the Deposits* in the pet Hanks,] t» the Committee of If ays and .Means with instructions to report the best practicasle plan of conducting ihe fiscal concerns nf the Government without runner ting it with monied corporations."

Died, at the residence of his father in this city, on the night of the 2Slh ult., Wesslet Hojibv Esq,of Columbia , county, in the 31st year of his age. Not only have the family and immediate friends of Mr. Hobby been deeply af flicted by ibis dispensation of Providence, but society has sustained no ordinary loss. Tlie high intellectual endowments, as well as the extensive erudition of the deceased, excited the admiration of all who knew him. He had been a few years since admitted to the practice of law in Ibis Htate. In Ibis profession, however, irolwilbst nding Ihe vigorous character of his minJ and his various acquirements, he seemed out of Ihe sphere tor which nature had designed him. The early moral and religious (raining which he had received, and his general fondness for all literature, led him to investigate the theory of re ligion, tnd the ditlerent systems of Christian faith. The works of a certain eminent writer of our own country hail no small influence in leading him to adopt what he at that time thought the “most rational view’’ of Christianity. With this he contented himself for a while, though con. scious throughout litis period, (as he subsequent ly slated to the writer of this notice) that there was something wanting in it. During the present year, feeling the necessity of some greater stimulant to moral action, he de termined again to apply liim-cif to the inves* jea lion of Christian doctrine. This led to an entire abandonment of his former opinions, and to an humble acknowledgement of the Supre me Divin ity of our Savior. Thus fully convinced of the trut'.i of revelation, and almost persuaded to be a c’aristian,” he at tended several religions meetings; atone’ol which alter many an inward struggle, he made an open confession of his errors—, ought alul obtalm ! d a pardoning mercy of hu* Redeemer, and connected himself with the MeVnodist Episcopal Church. He came to this city chiefly to attend a religious meeting which hud been looked forward to with considerable interest—hut was seized with fever previous to i,s commencement, and alter a violent illness of ten days, expired. During his whole illness his thoughts seemed occupied with ihe goodness ol God to him in his recent a’.d hannv conversion. 1 ..if i*° fr’ il | Urel ' , w kich h<) had attached him ■ef ?° * , U P°| l "■'.'.l with much hope of future ■m, U nL f S * nc ' vor ' t °f Lcr ministry which he ~ urpr>>,*u rpr>>,* , 0 enter.
