They are treated with absolute contempt; all investigation is denied^ and, with charges openly made, which, if untrue, can be refuted at once, it shrinks, with the conscious- ness of guilt, behind the shield of legal subterfuge. Fellow citi- zens, why is it that these disclosures are refused? Why is it we are told the bank should not be called on to criminate itself? Innocence never offers such a plea — it courts the light — it chal- lenges the most searching scrutiny of the accuser. What! is i...t come to this — that an agent of the American people, intrusted with their public moneys; can say that he will give no account of his stewardship, because he cannot be compelled to criminate himself ! Dark must be the catalogue of offences, where it is ne- cessary to resort to a pretext such as this! Are not these facts, thus briefly recalled to your notice, strik- ing evidences of the importance of the political contest in which we are engaged? It is this institution, thus abused, thus cor- rupt, thus determined wantonly to exercise its power, thus dis- regarding its own charter, and setting at defiance the people, the constituted authorities, and the very laws of the land — it is this overgrown moneyed monopoly, the abuses of which we are now called upon to crush, or submit ourselves for the future to its re- novated arrogance and power.
