The Ktlluwing report of the Com
mittee ul inspection and investigation,
appointed agreeably to the resolution
nf the Stockholders, at the meeting
held tin the 2d nf September, lbSS,
having been adopted, it was
Resolved, That Ihe report with its
appendix be published in the. public
pspns j and that the President anti
Directors uf the Bank uf the United
States, tin alsucau-e tlie same to be
published in pamphlet form, and that
a copy thereof be held at tlie dispusal
of each Stockholder.
Your Committee, to wltnm was re
fericri nn examination of the Condi-
lion uf tits Bank—
REPORT
That they havecarrlullv considered
and dil'gently investigated the sub
ject confided to them. But heluie
submitting any opinion nr statement
in detail, as to its actual situation,
Htey beg learn to refer to the luminous
exposition uf (lie President, herein
appended, containing a lurcl uf infor
matiun in relation tu the institutiiin, in
connection with various topics of
sound speculation ami practical utility
which cannot tail In prove highly in
teresting to the stockholders ami to
the public; while at Hie same time
they illustrate Ihe consoling truth
that the moat appalling riiUieulties
may be surmounted by Hie steady ap-
plicaiiun uf industry, integrity and
talent.
In compliance with Ihe provisions
of-the 13th srlidc ul the lltli section
of the charter, your committee have
ascertained that the suspended debts
at theJLnk and its various branches,
are
Upon personal and other
than stock securities $6,401,255 40
And upon inanaaecuied by
pledge o stock 4,017.350 75
Together amounting to 10,418,3*'!* 66
Your committee are decidedly ol o
pinion that the loss to the I)ink upon
this debt, together with other drafts,'
cuuntcilcit checks, and from nil other
sources,Cannot exceed 85,743, 899,
a loss arising partly Irum Hie peculiar
situation ol me monied relations of
Ihe country, but principally Irum a
misplaced confidence to unworthy a
gents. But your committee feel gra
tilled in sating, that a lund more
titan autfifieiil Ins been derived from
the previous pi nfits 61 the Bank, ami
specifically pledged, and set apart to
meet this loss ; besides which It pos
sesses* surplus ot 8971,425 41 cents,
arising from a balance winch stood to

cuu-.i • * the 1st of Juiy last, and Irum
interest which lias actually accrued,
hut which has nul yet been patd,upuu
that purlieu nf the suspended debts
which it la confidently believed will
be ultimately obtained.
The pirerding tact*, with the fol
lowing analysis, your committee leel
assured will tender the cotiviclinn ir
resistible that the Bank ul the Unit
etl Stales haa now attived at that
point when its capital may be derlar

It might be deemed prudent to ab
stain liom expieasing hii opinion upon
the future ptosped* ol the Dank, lea
ving each individual lo draw his own
inleieuces Irum ihe facia exhibited;
yei your committee are unwilling to
omit the expieasiou ot what they be
lieve to be a well grounded hope, that
the profi.s ol the Dank and its public
unlay will continue to iocre i»e with
the gr .dual (leveiwpement of its re-
souices. It Uie ll.uk has, under the
emoarrassment and perplex! y in
which it hasueen placed, not only sus
tained us own credit but that of the
circulating medium uf the country,
wilu willed lt» inteiestand prosperity
are indiapuubty connected, u can
*tdico»y Oo duujied, lhai incsc uidi
rolticf hbjng turirtounlrd and a more
ample opened lor the exercise m
it# energies, an increase of profit will
result from a corresponding extension
of its business. And whilst yuur
committee hire found it impraftici
ble to view this ioititution in anv "
ther light, than aa *n estsblishment tu
cfTxCt great national objects, they have
been cumpelled tofeegeik. that though
those objects have b-ien lolly attain
ed, the institution itself has nut re
ceived the support whipli it ia clenrly
the interest nf the nation to sffnd.
The past history of the Bank has
proved that where a neitsft »'l mornl
obligation U wtnting, the existing
laws are in:i»h qustc to deter the a-
gents of the Burk finm the commix
sion of frauds upon its vaults. V«»ur
rnmmittee therefore odtisethot the
President and Oirecors present lo
Congress a respectful memorial, pray
ing—
1st. The enactment of efficacious
laws, that adequate punishments may
be inflicted upon such agents nf Ihe
Bank as may be guilty of mslverss
tion in nftice. Silly. That they ask
an alteration in that part of the char
ter which requires that all notes of
the Hank which are payable on de
msnd shall be received in payment nf
debts due to the government, inus
much as this requisition, os hereto
fore construed, hus not only the ten
dency to prevent the Bank from re
aiming to some sections of the coun
try a sou d circulating medium, but
it may occur, that the Bank cannot
wifely place to the credit of the gnv
eminent, in cash notes, at one office,
which, accoiding to the contract nn
the face of them, s e payable at differ
ent snd distant office alone, # where
only funds have been placed tor their
redemption.
Though your committee are aware,
that not only the convenience of the
public but the interests of the institu
tion require ivn additional emission of,
its notes, and although they believe,
diat with a reasonable exertion on the
part of tliecttahier these maybe exe
ruled and put in circulation, while the
business ot the Bank is confined to
Its present limits; yet they are satis
tied that a considerable extension of
the ordinary hu*inegH of the institu
tion, would rer d r it wholly impnssi
ble for its officer* to perform this ser
vice : it is therefore rmgmctlully sug
gested that Congress sprayed to puss
a law, authorising other agents of the
Rink to (sign its notes,ami in the mean
time, the committee recommend that
the'liest means in the power of the
President and Directors be taken, to
put in circulation a larger additional
amount of notes, not exceeding the
denomination of twenty dollars.
Your committee have not discover
ed that serious consequences have re
sulted to to the interests .f the Bank
(except those which have beep -follow
ed by a public exjioaure) from a want
of obedience in distant agents ;
they nevertheless deem it -proper to
advise, that the President and Di
rectors of the parent Hank keep stead
ily in view the absolute necessity oh
enforcing its own orders through all
the various departments of the insti
tutions ; without which neither har-
tn\n$ with w*qr indiwi.
We have been politely favoured by

it important that those Interested In

current expensea of the bank have
been essentially mlooeri since the
yeai 1H19, and while it might be sop
posed that the present .embarrassed
slate nf the cnmmeice ot the country
and the limited amount uf interest
heretofore divided upon the capital nl
the bunk, are ati niig admonitions to
your agents to observe the most tigirl
economy ; yrt, inusmuch, as the *p!en
did tdifice in woich you are ns-embl
eri.ii. now so nearly completed, they
cannot but recommend that it be fin
ialud provided the expense shall not
exceed 825,0U0.
In take g into view the business nf
the banka* connected with ita d fierent
offices, the committee think it right
to recummei.d to the continued at
teiiliun of the president and directors,
the necessity of withdrawing those
branches which aie fou d to be unpro
fitable, and transferring their funds tu
those offices which tthall seem to re-
qob e additional capital.
Your committee take great plea
sute in unanimously decl.ring, that
the circumstances of the back fully
real’Z" the anticipation uf toe slock
holde s, as expressed at their last
meeting, in regard to the president,
who, by his talents, disinterestedness,
and assiduity, has placed ils affairs
in an attitude so safe and prosperous,
at that the burthen of duty devolving
upon hi- aurceasur will be compare
lively light.

According In the (erms of the pro
clamation no articles can be imported
into Hie United Slates, in any such
British ship or vessel, other than arti
cles of the growth, produce or manu
facture, uf the British Islands and
colonies in tho West Indies, in tho
case of British vessels coming from
any such island or colony in the West
Indies ; and articles of the growth,
produce, or manufacture, of (he R •
tislt colonies in North America, or of
the Island uf Newfoundland, in tho
case uf such vessels coining irom the
port of St. John, in that Island, or any
of Ihe ports in North America, speci
fied in the proclamation.
This is a corresponding regulation
with that contained in the 3 I article
of the act ol Parliament alluded to
in these wordst—" Provided always,
that no articles enumerated in the
said schedule shall be imported in any
foreign ship or vessel, or in any Bri
tish built ship or vessel so sold as a-
tioeuaid, unless shipped and brought
directly from the country or place ut
which they are the growth, produce or
tnariuf dure.”
Il results that British vessela com
ing from British colonial porta in N.
America, cannot bring articles of Ilia
growth, produce, or manufacture of
ilte Uiitish West India Islands, or tlie
productions of any other place nr
country ; and when coming from ths
British colonial ports in the West In
dies, cannot Ul ing articles ot the
growth, produce or manufacture, of
the Uri'ish colonial ports in North A-
merica, or the productions of any other
pluce nr country.
It is not to be understood, however,
that the pruclsmstiim limits the im
portation in British vessels to (Ita
the particular Port or I-land from
which the vessel may come ; on ilia
contrary,a British vessel coining Loin
any British colonial put Lit, the W est
Imliea, may being articles of tlta
growth, produce or manolacture, not
only ol such particular port, but also
ol any other of the British colonial
porta ut the West Indies ; anil u Bti-
tish vtasel coming from a Biiliah port
in North America, may bring article*
•I the growth,produce or tnonufactutp.
not only ul such particular port, hut
al-o nf any other of the North Ailieti-
cao Briti-n rolonies. *
It may he proper tn nb-erve that,
vessels uf the U. Slates are neither
allected i>y the act of Congress el thn
6tlt ot May last, before referred to,
nor hy the proclamation of the Ihesi-
dent uf the U. Slates t hut are still
subject to the operation ol the 3d sec-
•on of the Navigation act of the 15th
ol May, 1820—accoiding to which
-hey cannot import from British coio-
trial ports in North America, the pro
ductions nf the British colonial p'-rti
in the West lmlica, or those. «f any
other place or country ; now Irorti the
B itisli colonial ports in the West I t.
dies, the production of the British co.
lur.ial ports in North Ameiica or those
of any other pluce or country ; with
the same privilege, however, as hr**
already been stated, with respect tu
importations in British vessels i that
is lo say, that the importations in A-
msrican vessels er* not to be jimitad.
to toe articles ol the growth, produce*
or manufacture ul the particular port
from which the vessel may come ; hut
the same latitude is to be enjoyed it,
this respect as is iu the case uf BrilisA
vessels.
