"Review of the Veto. Containing an Examination of the Principles of the 
President's Message, and His Objections to the Bill"

Philadelphia, no printer listed, 1832.

An attack which questioned the Constitutionality of President Jackson's 
veto of the bill which re-chartered the Bank of the United States. 
"Modeled on Alexander Hamilton's First Bank of the United States, the 
Second Bank was chartered by President James Madison in 1816 and began 
operations at its main branch in Philadelphia on January 7, 1817, 
managing twenty-five branch offices nationwide by 1832. The efforts to 
renew the bank's charter put the institution at the center of the 
general election of 1832, in which the bank's president Nicholas Biddle 
and pro-bank National Republicans led by Henry Clay clashed with the 
'hard-money' Andrew Jackson administration and eastern banking interests 
in the Bank War. Failing to secure recharter, the Second Bank of the 
United States became a private corporation in 1836, and underwent 
liquidation in 1841" (Wikipedia).
