The “choice of means” implies a right to choose a national bank in preference to state banks and Con gress alone can make the selec tion. Having decided that the Bank was » neeessary instrumentality of the national government and the act under which it was incor porated “a part of the supreme law of the land”, Marshall denied the state a right to tai it for the “power to tax % the power to de stroy.” The exercise of such pow er by the states would undermine the sovereignty of the central government, he pointed out. As the Negro bailiff in the Sur- preme Court room once expressed it. “When this court rules against you there ain’t nobody you can appeal to but the Lord.” Andrew Jackson was, however, loath to accept the verdict as final especially when that verdict had been rendered by John Marshall whom Old Hickory held continual ly in contempt. Jackson came to the Presidency in 1829 with a com plex against banks and Nicholas Biddle, then president of the Cen tral Bank, was soon embroiled in a political feud with the chief exec utive. Jackson, convinced that the Cen tral Bank was dangerous to demo cratic ideals and institutions, ar- rainged it in his message of 1829 on the ground that its expedency and constitutionality had both been questioned. Twice he repeated his indictment of the bank and in three successive messages the constitutionality of the bank was questioned despite the fact that Marshall had ruled it a necessary instrumentality a doz en years before. Space will not permit the dra matic story of the campaign of 1832 in which Henry Clay cham pioned the bank’s charter against Jackson’s vote. It was no time for the championship of financial in stitutions or of centralization. The spirit of Jacksonion democracy was abroad in the land and Clay and the bank’s charter went down to inglorious defeat. Following the panic of 1837 the treasury lost millions which had been deposited in state banks fol lowing the failure of the Central Bank to function as “fiscal agent.” On the recommendation of Van Buren an independent treasury was set up to care for federal funds The independent treasury was short lived, was immediately abolished when the Whigs came back into power in 1841. The new Congres sought manful ly to revive the Central Bank but were kept from doing so by the opposition and oft repeated vetoes of John Tyler. It is interesting to note that Tyler, the Whig, like Jackson, the Democrat, refused to accept the verdict of the Supreme Court as final and based his oppo sition to the proposed federal bank largely on constitutional grounds.
