In considering the question whether the

ol the corpiration The committee think
they are required bv tlie resolution to re
put all instances of a violation of tile pro
vision* of the charter, which have come
to tlleir knowledge; but they do not con
sider themselves' called upon to state
ivhicn ut them would in their opinion, pro
duce a forfeiture or any other legal conse
quences; and one inducement to tiiis coil-
sl 'Uctioii of the resolution arises from the
consideration, that, if they were to confine
tneniselves only to those virtlations which
would produce a I’oi teiturr. am! should give
a mistaken or incorrect * pinion, that the
charter had np’t been violated; so as to pro
duce a forfeiture, the iioo-e might, under a
strict construction of the art, he precluded

(leiCruime whether uipler- those farts, it be
or be tint expedient to dif*'ct the issuing a

tions are such as to cause a dissolution of
the corporation.
The committee then are of the opinion,
that the provisions ol the charter of tne
bant' of tlie United States have been viola
ted io (lie following instances.
I. In purchasing two millions of public
debt, in order to substitute them fur two
other million*of similar debt,’which if had
contracted, to sell, or had sold in ’ Europe,
ami uliirli the secretary of the treasury
claimed the right of i tdcemitig. The facts
on tiiis subject, and the views nf the trans-
aslion entertained by the committee, have
been already given.
II. In nut requiring the fulfilment of
the engagement madcjiy the stockholders
or subscribing, to pay the 2d anil 3d’ in
stalments oh the stock, iii coin aud. fundee]
dobt. The facts oii lbis point are fully be
fore tlie house, and thev establish, beyond
ail doubt, 1st, tliat the ilirectors ot the bank
agrfed to receive and did receive what
they deemed ati equivalent for •• in I
checks upon, and the .notes of the. hank j
and other banKs supposed to pay specie.—
This substitution of any equivalent what
ever, for the specific things, requited bv
the charter, was in itself a departure from
it.* provision*; but, 2d, the notes and checks
thus leccived were not, in all cases, equiv
aleut to coin,because there, was not specie
to meet them in the bank; 3d, that notes of
individuals were discounted and taken in
lieu of the coin part of the 2d. instalments,
by virtue of a resolution for tliat purp 'se
passed before that instalment became due
4th, that the notes nf individuals were t"k
e’n in many jnstaqces.and ty large amounts
in Itttu ot the’2jt anil 3d instalments, which
notes are 1 yet unpaid. t
HI. In paying dividends to stockho!
ders wlio'liad not completed their instal
ments; the provisions of the charter in that
respect were violated.
IV, JVy the judges of the first and se
cond election allowing ninny persons to
give more than thirty votes each, under
e.pretence of their being attorneys fur
persons in wb' se nanu s shares then stood,
wh-il tliusu judges, tht directors, and offi
cers of the bank, perfectly well knew that
those shares ready Indouged to the persons
offering to vote upon them ak atturneys.—
I'hc l.icts iti respect of this viulatiou are
in possession ot the house, and establish it
beyond the reach of doubt. ,’•
l’lie c mu mi t tee are ol opinion that no
other instance ofn violation’ of the char
ter has been established. In closing this
re|un t ofa iuost labor inus' investigation,
the committee observe, that whatever dif
ference of opinion can exi*t among them
as to the results and inferrences to be
d'awu from the facts stated, they unani
mously concur in giving, to tiie preceding
statements of facts and abstracts of do
cuments, their sanction. They have not
recommended the adoption nf any ;neay-
ures to correct tiie manv evils and mischief
they have de;iiet*-d,exc. iiting that of the bill
hetore menfToned. because, by the provis
ions ot the-chartcr, the secretary of the
treasury has full power to apply a prou pt
nd adequate remedy, whenever the situa
tion of tiie hank shall require it. And if,
lifer the stockholders have become ac-
qu tinted withi.be mismanagement of the
institution, they shall adopt no means to '

We hive already expressed oursebes favorable
to this great inani In tendering our feeble aid,
however, we have not tlie vanity to suppose, that
we can render any essential service to I1IM; btr
we sliali al least have tint satisfaction of reflect
ing, .that we have discharged our duty in contri
buting .to exculpate a man, who, in our esiim
tion, is "more sinned agamst than sinning,
seems that this hero is destined to pass the ordeat
of editorial i: (position: and it is with pain tliat
observe two or three respectable republican prims
have joined in this editorial crusade, which is evi
dtntly intended to turn the current of public
dignation against the- reputation of this distin
guished general. But his integrity and love
country is too well known—and his services
deeply engraven on the hearts of his countrymen,
that they cannot be frittered away by the plead'
ings and qu.b‘<les of designing partizans
wisdom and tirmness, and die patriotic vigor of his
sword has lead us to glorious victories—triumphs
without a parallel in tiie annals of war, which
posterity alone will be able duly to appreciate.
Is It possible that there is a native of these United
Slates so devoid of every principle which should
animate his bosom, as to become the viUfier
Jackson, and the advocate of Arbutlinoi and Am.
bristtr? Dead to the noblest sympathies nf the
heart must he be who duct uot return thanks
the tnan who has risked bis life in defence of his
country and hgr rights. . Can they be Americans,
who would rejoice to see the saviour of the wes
tern and southern Mutes ^degraded and punished
for some of those v^v-sets'which so*greatly con
tributed to, aiufto which we -are indebted lor, the
peace and the’liappiness we iffiiir enjoy? But Jack-
son has been denounced xs : .’a tyrant’ and a despot
!t is worse than idle to talk about despotism
this country at tlie present^d- j• An eloquent
writer says—“The equality of legal rights; the
perfect freedom of all our’Trrtitutipns. the equal
’distribution of property; and, above all, tlie gen
eral intelligence and independent spirit of the
people, have laid the axe,to the root of any such
.n!; and it is only thr -ugh the prostitution of the
public mind, that the enemies of free government
can ever hope to attain their pernicious ends. 1
What has Jackson done to entitle him to the epi
thet of tyrant? Hus lie attempted to play Caesar
or Cromiveh? Has he attempted to establish mi
litary despotism? Has lie opposed the interest of
his country, or sacrificed her national honor? Ifo!
lie hue not Where did he ever shew the least
symptom of ambition, further than the good of
his native land was Concerned? When did be,
we ask,:ever evince a disposition to advance in
pmver, honor, or rank? On tlie contrary, we find
t’ais great and good man, after obtaining the most
teiler.Jid triumphs, return Irom the field of glory
-his farm, like another Cincinnati!!. There hr
remains in the simplicity of a private citizen—-and
is duly to be f und when the enemies of his coun-
’ try appear, and in the day of battle. The sin of
general Jackson’s offending is. that he has been
the means of causing two outlaws to receive the
reward of their crimes—and for saving Vew-Or-
leans from the dreadful horrors of a storm, and
preserving “BEAUTY - ’ from violence! For these
acts we. never need expect forgiveness frnm those
presses that are under the direction of such man
as Coleman, Dwight, and other “Blue light Edi
tors. 1
Arbuthnot and Ambrister 'were, utqestionably
in the service of the SetfiWotcs. This Is not de
nied byanyone. The faclji, these men identified
themselves with the aa*agt|i’fcfciltlietehj' subject
ed themselves to ail the law's o!. Wat, and of na
tions, allowed to, or practiced by savages. They
contracted a friendship for jhc Indians, entered
into their service; .threw thyqiselvei.beyond the
pair of civilized..warfare,-kiid-as an Indian chief,
or mercenary, were rightfully putJo death. With
out the consent of theif sovereign, according to
Vafiel. it was not lawful for.lhese men.to espouse
tlie quarrels, of the Seminrtles; tnd according to
the same aothoriry, with OU'Wilhotit that consent,
the mcreenary.or foreign soldier ’becomes wmem
her pf the state in the!’service in which tie tn
gaces. They received the ’punishment of their
erim-J, found as shey were,'' in array in the
service nf the savages; »na 'viewed in this fight, it
was lawful upon every principle of warfare as
recognised by e wage nations, to put tl em tc
death without’ tlie sentence of a military tribunal
The ci«e of thrse' men have been compared to
Lu Favette, De K; lb, anil other heroes of our
glorious revolution. What profanation!! Compare
these illustrious patriots with the dastardly insti
gators of murder and plunder ! ! this is an of-
fenre so great, that years -of penitence will not
ipe away !
To shew tlie inveteracy of some of Jackson's
revilieru, we submit- to our readers the following
remarks, copied from the Albany Daily Advertis
er, as a sample of their feelings towards this hero.
Bonaparte had the motive of conven
ience in poisoning his 'invalid soldiers at
Jaffa. He had the motive of interest in
assassinating the duke,'D’Et.ghien, The

evidences of Dr. Edward’s abilities to explain this
system, there can be no doubt but that our citi
zens will realize all that is promised In his adver
tisement. The surest evidence of Dr. Edward’s
abilities, arises from the extraordinary Juccera ot
die system in his hands; which is apparent- from
the tealimonials- in his possession*—but'stiU' Ittoft J
from tne northern papers, We have seen in is Bal
timore paper, ti e highest eulugium Oh the benefit
of bis labors, in the report of tiie trustees of the
’Uancasti i«n schools there, wbere the greatest inr
protemeuts in their institutions appeared at once,
from the instructions given to their teacher by Dr
Edward, in Philadelphia.—That testimonial itself
carries more weight with it than any common cer
tificate of "tlie day—and, of itself, ought to have
great influence in securing him a Harm reception
in ibis city. But we have seen a copy of the'>e ; . ..........

where it is shewn upon the motion of the first men
of F.ngland, that Dr Edward’s success in cslab.
fishing the system in these countries gave the tit.
most satisfaction to that learned bodyi and reSo.
lutions were drawn up in congratulation of the,
success of the system, among the catholics of Low
