The li berality and independence with which it is con ducted, throwing its pages freely open to all dis cussions orVon nbu ions, which have a tenderu cy to advance the course of literature, science or morals, inu-l ever command lor it popularity and support.

They should promptly and zealously afford every means in their power, to enable its enterprising and pa triotic editor to continue the improvement hereto fore so strikingly manifested. We feel assured, from our knowledge of the character and past ex onions of Mr White, that no possible exertion will be spared on his part, to render the work every tiling that its most sanguine friends can hope or dedre from it; and it is truly painful to learn, as we do privately, that owing to the delin quency of many of Ida subscribers, bo is now en abled to sustain it only by the proceeds of other property, which has been greatly injured by the drafts upon it to sustain this enterprise. This is really too bad; and can it be possible, that there is any Southern subscriber, professing to patro nise the work from a liberal regard for Southern literature and character, so callous to his duly, and to -in or jtislice, as to defer any longer rbe Jn.-t and strong claims upon him, rnpeaiedly pro furred, after learning this tact?

He took occasion to present ids views of the conditions and regulations under which such an institution should ho placed in or der to lie productive of the greatest advantage to the community. Many people, he said, were ol opinion lhai the design ol him and his friends, was to erect the Pennsylvania Bank into a Na tional Institution. He had the giealcst confidence in the financial skill, and integrity and patriotism of Mr. Biddle. No one did he know in whom he would have equal confidence ns the manager of such an institution, except Mr. GALLATIN Hut he was not runleiiTlii g for this or that indi vidual,—this or that institution; and though ho would be content that nit exis ing bank should I e made the hirsts of a National institution, he thought it would he mote expedient to have a new one. It was the institution, a properly or ganized and beneficial link of the I doited .Slates; he was anxious (of. He then proceeded to stale at le igth and in regular order the conditions which might to be annexed to any proposition lor such a bank.

Afer a little declamatory twaddle from Mr ALLUN of Oht a Mr. Buchanan rose and most gratuitously assuming dial New York City was to be the place for this New Dank, and that Piri. ladelphia was to be abandoned, po cceded to p o test with a vehemeney quite amusing, against the establishment ol any such monster in New York.

He made no formal pro position for a National Hank si all. He would not submit such a proposition to a packet! jnry.

Mr. Clay said he wondered that VL. Buchanan wi'h Ins ex pressed opinions on rhal subject, could have been w illing to go for iGovernmen Bans as the S. b Treasury Bid proposed to create, and which, tint for the iir-truelions tram Harrishurgh, he would have supported Mr. BUCHANAN replied that if the tnon-ler was In FnilaiMphia. something might lie done by his Ii II >w citizens to rsne liate and sm the him. and prevent linn Iroin devouring iheir substance. Ho therefore pilfered m hive him at home. As in the soli treasury bill c eating a governmen Hank, he differed entirely on that subject w.lh The Senator from KtniUn ky. Clay rejoined Tat under dial bill, the govern menl might transact the business of a Bank of ciieuluUoti, discounts,and .'epo-ires, and declare 1 fur lo r that the Treasury note just issued, were government paper money—government, post notes.
