II is stated upon the authority of private


letter just received by a friend OF ours, that


Nicholas Biddle has res gned the Presidency oi


the Bank of the United States, for the purpose
OF taking charge of the Treasury Department
at Washington!.. We have believed for a
long time, that most corrupt intrigue was &C.
ing on between Mr.. Van Buren and Mr.. Biddle
and expressed that opinion soon after we COM


nenced the publication of the Advocate. But
~e never believed the parties would have the
shameless efFrontery to sign and publish TO the
American People. the most corrupt political


bargain that has ever disgraced the history Of
our country. Mr.. Biddle has political bition,
and great financial talents and experience
Mr.. Van Buren,, at the beginning of his admin
istration, surrounded himself with a set of the
most stupid and dishonest rascaIs that ever es-
capped ''unwhiPped OF justice,'' and he finds
himself precisely where he might have expect
ed 20 be-in the midst of difficulties from
which all the old loco .fooos put together could
not extrcate him. Never were parties in a
better situation TO sgree-Mr. Van Buren gives
Mr.. Bidde the control of the Treasury and
place in the Cabinet, and makes Mr. Biddle's
Bank the fiscal agent of the Government (tor
Dir. Biddle still rules the Bank of the United
States through his instrument chosen to sac
ceed hiIn) for which Mr.. Biddle agrees 10 bring /
all the energies of his great mind, and all the |
resources OF the Bank 10 the relief of the |
bankrupt Treasury. The bargain IS an equal
one, and considering the former relation of the
parties, the proshtution IS mutual. Look ou:
Tor more changes. More Of this anon.
