HE increase of the public revenue appears to me to have been the principal cause of the progressive increase of the paper currency of this country during the preceding century. It is an established principle in taxation,, that all duties should be paid by the consumer. For this purpose, whenever a tax is, imposed on any particular produce, an ad vance is made in its price, commensurate w'th. the impost. But as the existing currency of the country is no more than adequate to circulate its produce at the existing prices, if the price of any particular commodity be advanced, more money will be requisite for its movement, and an increase of currency must be effected to support its transfer. But an increase is not only necessary to enable the grower to raise the price of the produce on which the duty is imposed; but an additional increase is requisite to enable the consumer to pay for it. If the income of the consumer continued the same, it could only be occupied in effecting the same payments which it previously made. If larger payments be required, a greater currency is necessary to facilitate their transaction . In order therefore to remove the liability of the grower, and to give effect to the principle that the duty should fall on consumption, it is not only requisite that an increase of currency should take place to raise the produce of of the grower; but an increase is likewise requisite to raise the produce or labour, from which the income of the consumer proceeds. It is thus that the partial imposition of a duty on any one particular commodity resembles, in its operation, a general impost on all, by occasioning a general advance of existing prices. It may perhaps be imagined that an inc...

The fact constituting this most extraorilinary crime, is the mere existence of a loan, or discount of the proscribed Editor at the Hank: a transaction entirely warranted by law, but in the consummation of which a Committee of one branch of the Legislature first assumes the right of scrutinizing and then of passing sent. nee of condemnation upon the motives of both parties to the contract. As there is no law constituting the offence, the degree of its malignity has no rule of proportion but that of the temper by which it is prosecuted--it will be aggravated by-;very stimulant of private pique, of clashing interest, of political prejudice, or of morbid suspicion, which can be enlisted in the prosecution. A Committee man, being a large stockholder in a State Bank, to be deeply benefitted by the extinguishment of the Bank of the United States; another, linked in connection with a newspaper establishment in competition with the Editor to be attainted; a profound political economist, wedded to a system of coin, currency, and credit, propitious to one banking interest, and unfavorable to another; a mere partizan hanging upon the skirts of a political candidate, and following the camp to share in the spoils of the victory, might all club their inventive faculties to swell this imaginary trespass into a felony--and seldom would there lack as an ingredient in the composition, the corrosive sublimate of a malicious temper, with instinctive hatred of all honor and integrity, prone always to infer actual fraud and villany from the mere possibility of its existence, and even to insinuate corruption, without dar...
