BANK QUESTION.

We have taken the trouble of arranging the votes given on the Bank question on Friday last, in such a manner as to show the sentiments that prevail in different parts of the Union, both as to the Recharter and the Removal of the Deposites. An unprejudiced attention to the opinions thus evinced, must, we think, convince the most ardent friend of the "Money Mammoth," that its downfall is inevitably decreed by the American People, and they approve of and will sustain General Jackson in all his measures tending to that desirable result.

It will be seen that in the Eastern States only, was there a majority for re-chartering the Bank; that in Southern and middle States the vote against it was 84 to 34, or very nearly two thirds; in the Western 37 to 24 against it.

But what is more interesting and important, is the vote on the restoration of the Deposites. On this point, the opposition have directed their main batteries, hoping by that means to attain their real object—the recharter of the Bank—under a disguise of a vehement dread of the powers of the Executive. -Now, how stands the vote on this point, as compared with that of the re-charter? In the middle States we have against re-charter 50; against restoring deposites 47—a loss of only three votes out of an aggregate of 83 votes. A Tinicum victory this indeed! How is it in the western States? We have against recharter 37; against restoring deposites 40—an actual gain of three votes, out of an aggregate of 60 votes,

Here then what is the fact? that the vote of the western and middle states, sturdy, democratic, constitutional and faithful members of the Union, is actually the same on the question of recharter and deposites. Does not this fact speak a language which the most bigotted opponent of the President, and the Democratic party, cannot by possibility misunderstand?

Again it shows us that, in fact, the opposition to the President is a personal one, not one founded on principle—not resting on honest conviction in favor of the Bank. The difference in the vote on the two questions is found to arise almost entirely in the southern States. The nullifying representatives from that section of the Union, disliking Gen. Jackson as bitterly as they did, were yet afraid so far as to violate the wishes and feelings of their constituents, as to advocate the re-chartering of the Bank openly. They know however, that this would be only prevented by his administration being sustained, and if that could have been broken down by a side blow, a secret thrust under the ribs, the darling object of upholding their corrupt institution; which would in turn uphold them, would have been successful. Hence the difference of the vote, caused by ambitions, but fortunately ineffectual strugglers of the nullifiers, setting aside principle in the vain hope of power. Yes—vain it is, and vain it will be, while the patriotic portion of the South unites, as it does now, with the great democratic majority of the western and middle states.

Many more views, consoling to all true republicans, might be drawn from these votes: but we must leave them to the observation of our fellow citizens. One fact deserves, however, to be noticed—it is, that the great states of New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, give exactly the same aggregate vote of 51 in favor of General Jackson's measures, on the question of re-charter and on that of the deposites.

We add the tables to which we have referred, taken from the list of ayes and noes.
