Governors McDonald and Bank Debate in Georgia Whig Row
A long Georgia Whig critique of the Columbus Enquirer over the Bank issue and Governor race remarks. The piece argues the Bank question was not settled by Georgia's last election and challenges Enquirer contradictions and the State Rights stance. It cites Vermont and national Whig positions to illustrate ongoing party fractures and calls for principled, restrained political debate.

Bank plan clampdown mocks constitutional limits
The Augusta Constitutionalist blasts a proposed compromise to back a central bank with branches in states and Congress approving branches as needed. It argues the plan erodes state rights and constitutional limits, warning it would permit power beyond any express constitutional authority. The piece condemns Mr Clay and allies for pressing a principle of necessity and propriety to override dissent and push administration measures.

Washington session grim odds on Clay bank bill
From Washington July 19 the session focuses on fiscal and bank bills with party lines. The Bank Bill is unlikely to pass the Senate, while the Loan Bill passes by strict party vote. President-backed Secretary Webster stands firm, and a Nova of cabinet reshuffles hints at political realignments as the House advances fortifications and home squadron measures.
