Newspaper Page TextTIIK DEMOCRAT. HATI’RDAY, JUNE 25, 1831._ One of the most frequent subjects of vi tuperation by the di.ntniomsts of tiie pres ent time, is the institution cf the United Stntes Bank. There is not a paper in the Southern States which is secretly or avowedly friendly to nullification, hut what makes a tilt a* the U. S. Bank. But what are the sins urged against this institution? Ist—it has an enormous cap ital. And is it then an evil that a bank should have an undoubted capital, fully responsible for all the hills it may issue? For ourselves we should suppose this to he exactly the thing wanted; the public have suffered enough by fictitious capitals, we should suppose, to lie able to appreci ate the value of a real and solid one. But this enormous capital enables this Bank to oppress other institutions. Well, but how? Why it compels the other banks to redeem tbeir bills with specie! And is not this exactly the thing which public interest requires? We can remem ber that before the incorporation of the U. S. Bank, the bills of many of our local in stitutions were at 25,30, and 50 percent, below par, and we could, not get silver for them at that. But the U. S. Bank bills have driven all such out of circulation. The local Banks are compelled to pay specie, or stop business. We can readiiv understand therefore, that the U. S. Bank is opposed to the interests (or rather to the speculating schemes) of the local banks. Because were it not for its influence, these hanks might issue bills to tbc amount of $5,000,000, and hot have $5,000 of silver in tbeir vaults. They might thus draw the interest of a vast sum at a compara tively trilling expense. And on any pres sure, any run on the hank the hills would sink to 25 or 75 per cent, below par; and who would suffer? Why the people. The Bank itself would prosper in such times. They might send round their agents and collect in their hills at a fourth or a tenth, of their nominal value, and pay off their debts with an old song. Tints it is, that the U. S. bank is opposed to the interests of the local hanks. She restrains their disposition to over issue, compels them to redeem their notes for specie! and thus she oppresses them! But are the people oppressed by this course of policy? certainly not; their in terests are protected by it. The circula ting medium is preserved at an equable standard. Whoever heard of the United States Bank oppressing an individual. We have never. She is a more liberal creditor than most of the local Banks; her large capital enables her to gpftnt grea ter indulgences. And besides slie is not affected by the influence of local politics. She seldom puts the screws to an individ ual merely because he is a Clark man or a Trouper, or because he prefers Mr. Snip for Senator, to Mr. Scroggins; a policy which we have known some of our local banks to he guilty of. The necessity of the removal of the Indian tribes so completely hemmed in by white settlements, as are those with in the limits and on the borders of Geor gia to a more congenial territory, is be coming daily more apparent. The al most entire failure of the chase, the ex haustion of their fisheries, joined with tlicir repugnance to agricultural labor, has reduced many districts of them to n state of suffering which can scarcely be imagined by philanthropists living at « distance. The tribes in this neighbor hood are reduced nearly to a state of starvation. The change in the policy of our government towards them, Ims also operated most severely upon them. For several years our govermnet has furnished those who were willing to re move with the means of doing so. And hundreds, anticipating a removal last fall, failed to make any provision for n subsistence, at their present residence, for the present year; and when there fore the administration adopted the res olution to defray no longer the- expense of partial removals, the measure opera ted with inconceivable severily upon those who, relying upon the faith of the government, had failed to innke provis ion for their support in their present lo cation. It is believed that more than a moiety of the Creek nation would now gladly remove west of the Mississippi, could they be furnished with the means of doing so. Hut many of the chiefs &, half breeds are making money out of the distresses of their neighbors, and re fuse to go. But the present policy pro poses to force them to yield, by acting on the miseries of their fellows. How far it will succeed, time will determine. It is painful to observe how a feeling of self-interest will not only excuse but encourage vice, if it unswers a present purpose A foreign periodical of high standing has the following singular par agraph. "The Foies have interrupted “ despatch from Field Marshall Die bitseh, in which be declares to the Em peror, that the Imperial Gnnril it wholly demoralised, and can no longer be depen ded upon. He sincerely hope that this proof neics may be confirmed, ’ That is, the wor thy editors are extremely anxious that the report of the entire demoralisation of a whole corpse, may prove true!
