Address on Liberty and the Bank Crisis in 1837
The speaker defends constitutional liberty, laments domestic servitude, and warns Pennsylvanians about federal power over banks. He compares European regimes' fall to America’s republic, urges vigilance against abolitionist agitation, and critiques the late Bank of the United States while outlining the peril of paper money and specie shortages.
