A Faiimkn. U ithoot estimating the political influence ot tlie species of separate interest called banking, we. can at a glance discover, that a power to give and receive charters, to draw woaltji from the people, to shave in it, and to obtain adherents at the public rxpe lure. Its pecuniary seductiveness, is exact ly opposed to the policy, supposed by all our constitutions to be most likely, to awa ken the good moral qualities of human na ture; and exactly such as have constantly a- tvukrned its evil. Nations, resorting to e- leetive and representative forms of govern ment, consider a strict similitude between the interest of the Lt gislnture ami of the Peo ple, as the chief security for fidelity. They have never divided these interest*, by estab lishing a difference to the extent of* file mil lions annually, to be paid by the one, and received in money or power by the other : no tree constitution has even declared, that a legislator might legislate wealth to hittisi If and taxes to the people, and no mail in his senses ever thinks of securing the honesty of an agent, a powerful temptation to betray him—even the King of England cannot him self pass n law to inflict the million he re ceives ; whilst the legislators of these states might receive the five million they inflict by hanking, and do receive a considerable por tion of it. On the contrary, all nor constitu tions consider it as a sacred principle, that legislators should really, and not minimally, he affected by the good or evil dispensed h_\ the law, as tint nation is effected. As a ma jority of a nation cannot he bankers, the o- petii vg a subscription to all is a formality, the futi itv of which is demonstrable in the cer tain aud necessary result of ibis formality— that invariably places the stockholding legis lator in a minority; and of rourso he niosl be affected by every law which effect slock ; not as the nation are effected, lint as this mi nority is effected ; (ami in preeisely the same proportion a* the owners of hank stork are lien- ,‘ttod, must the nation la- injured, and as stock is in jured Ivy restrictions, the nation must he henefltted ) Executive patronage would become similar to legislative, tl the executive could both create offices and be stow them on himself and Ins creatures, as the latter bestows charters. Whenever legislators, or men in power of any denomination, can receive charters, ex- 'Iumvc privileges or emolument which they •rente, they will incline to make them good gifts. Accordingly hank stock is so nrami- liictured as lo sell at an advance, sometimes as high as fifty per centum. Thus a legisla tor who creates, subscribes for k sells stock, converts Ivy his own legal | slight of hand, c- very dollar lie can raise into 130 cents. This is undoubtedly « seuod thin pc for him si if. If England held ail the hank stock in tin United States, the cheat of this new kind of slight of hand would he made plain, and all its promises would vanish, in smoke, helm- common sense. It would lie instantly seen, that England, the. stockholder, was drenched Ivy the div idemls, aud America taxed, and impoverished by the. notes. By filling the place of England with three nr four thousand native aud foreign stockholders, the place of tile people i* not altered. Such of them as are members of the IitgLsltfturi will Vote, upon poliliral questions that elfeel honk stock artlu ns England wont,I if she hi Id our stork, and could legislate for us. The ground which sustains this argument, is that upon which hanking has spread from state to state namely, thal tares for individual benefit, ami not gold for public use, are raised by thi new slight of hand. Whether taxes are re pealed by paying them to Tom instead of Dick, or to a native hanker instead of to En gland, left to the common sense of the peo pie to determine. | Patronage is an instrument by which go I vernmenfs corrupt a faction, In take part I wiili them against options, and this gradual ly acquire more power than the people eve gave. If this instrument is obtained by f< reign conquest, as in tin- acquisition of India by England, the people still suffer for the iiiieoiislitulional power it confers ; it is iuti- uiie’y more calamitous to a nation when gotten by fraudulent domestic operations. Had the government of the U. States bes towed upon themselves and their partisans offices to the v due of five millions annually, the patronage would have been the sam with that created by hanking, which unite* (lie corporation and thu government against the people, like, sinecure offices to the same amount. For this vast and boundless modi of acquiring power,there is j no allowance io any constitutions—it is a great weight which was never thrown into the scales by thus who made them ; can il possibly lie thrown in by law, and leave the division iff povvei between a nation and its government, unal tered ? In another view, the patronage created lr banking, spreads out in the United Slides, far beyond any influence capable of being produced, by creating offices of the value just mentioned. The general government nii.y influence the whole fabric by means of a power to regulate the places of deposit of the general taxes, and by regulations as to the paper which may he received in pay ment. This influence may reach state legis lature* as stockholders, and convert the best harrier devised by tin: principle of division against usurpation aud consolidation, into .-in insidious aud secret instrument, for the ends il was intended to oh-tnn t. Through this medium, stockholding legis lators will discover that it is just mid right tu retain their annuities, by any eo oplianees for which ill people, not tlteinsi Ives sufli r ; and a silent revolution which "ill secure or increase these annuities, will appear to them to he necessary for the public good. To this obvious danger weave blinded by being told, that a separate banking interest is harmless, because it is not a titled order. So far from this being true, a separate inte rest is mo e dangerous, if it ran create, sus tain and enrich itself without being deTigna- ted, than if it cannot ; if it assails by sap and n)inc,than if it assails by the sound of drums, if Lords could create and enrich lords by law, ttn- government would sngn b-eume a feudal aristocracy. If Bishops could create and enrich Bishops by law, the government would become an uerarcliical aristocracy.— So if Stockholders can create and enrich Stockholders by law, the gov eminent must i levitubly become a paper aristocracy. H was the tide or badge of the herarchieal and feudal orders in England which, by designa ting the members, afforded the means of coil trolling and limiting their progress. If on constitutions required that every Stoekhol tier should he clothed in a surplice, that In might be known and excluded from legisla ttve power, he would like a lord or a bishop he thereby rendered Ic** dangerous, vvithuu a b ulge or title, they admit of no control aiwl the paper interest admits of and is de signaled by neither. They are what is vul gai ly called, snakes in the grass. 1 he untitled paper interest in England has nade prisoners of the two tilled order*; u •es them sometimes ns clerks in his count tig house—at others, ns j tekalls to hunt its r, and at all finies fo pronounce its will for law; this it Inis gradually effected, be cause il can act secretly ; it is a warrior in imhtish, or a conjurer invisible to the crowd lie defrauds In the history of our forefathers, we recog nize two political beasts railed feudal and hierarchical aristocracy, which have at dif ferent times fed upon their lives, liberties and properties. From these inert and subdued monsters, which are fur away from us, anil w liicli to say the worst of them, are only in struments of a third. We exclaim, protect o* Heaven, while upon beholding a vvliclpof the third, so strong as to have swain into our country across the Atlantic. We add, oh ! what a beautiful mature is here! Atul the infatuation concludes vv itli a sincere eouiinis- serntion of the people of England, on ac count of the misery with which they have been loaded by the. mother of tills identical vv help. Liberty ceases to be tlie effect of election, whenever a representative can draw wealth and power, or either from his own laws, by means either of office sinecure or monopoly. His interest under tins law is greater than his expense—bis interest is adverse to I In: inte rest of the people vv ho pay the lax or income be receives.
