Daniel Webster, on the Sub-Treasury Bill: Delivered in the Senate of the United States, January 31, 1838 Sir, it never can escape. The common sense of all men pronounces that the Government is, and ought to be, and must he, answerable for the regu lation of the currency of the country; that it ought to abide, and must abide, the peltings of the storm of imputation, so long as it turns its back upon this momentous question, and seeks to shelter itself in the safes and the vaults, the cells and the caverns, of a sub-treasury system. But of all Governments that ever existed, the present administration has least excuse for withdrawing its care from the currency, or shrinking from its just responsibility in regard to it.
