Tyler pledged to the Bank Bills of the present session? When and where was he pledged to any bank ? Never, any where. Take the proceedings of the liarrisburg Con- vention as one of a hundred tests in regard to this question. Was the Bank Bill, in any of its shapes, drawn out at that Convention, and submitted to him, to be made the subject of a pledge on his part ? Was any bank ? Was any bank idea ? Every man in the United States knows tliat no such thing was made the subject of pledge at that C...onvention. On the contrary, all specific pledges of any sort were purposely excluded. Mr. Tyler's own opinions upon that subject were a matter of notoriety, as were General Harrison's; and in the face of those opinions they were nominated by the Convention. Mr. C. Said he would go further : not only was not General Harrison, and least of all Mr. Tyler, pledged to these particular Bank Bills, or any other form of a United States Bank, but the whole party itself was alike unpledged. He believed the precise fact to be, that, although the issue of Bank or No Bank was tendered to the Whigs by the other party, and at- tempts were made by that party to represent the idea of a bank as the specific and discriminating characteristic of Whiggery, yet that issue was refused, and that idea repudiated, if not universally, yet very generally, by the organs and the orators of the Whigs.
