Hamilton proposes the establishment of the National Bank and Jefferson opposed the proposal.

Hamilton's proposal:
1) Bank's 25,000 stock would be worth $10,000,000
2) 20,000 shares of the bank will be sold at $400 per share. The $400 per share will be $100 in gold and silver coin; $300 will be in government bonds
3) The remaining 5,000 shares will be bought by the US government
4) Board of Directors will be 25 people (20 chosen by the shareholder and 5 by the government).
5) Notes and bills issued by the bank will be the legal tender and redeemable in gold and silver coins.
6) Bank's charter will run for 20 years and will be subject to renewal by Congress.
7) Bank branches will be built in other cities but its main branch will be in Philadelphia.

Jefferson's opposition:
1) Special powers and privilege of the bank will hinder the growth and development of the state banks.
2) The bank will cater more to the wealthy in the cities than the farmers in the country.
3) BOD will most likely be composed of wealthy individuals who prefer to help other wealthy individuals become more rich and powerful.
4) The constitution did not give the national government to authority and power to establish a bank.

All arguments aside, the remaining issue was whether the establishment of the National bank by the Congress is constitutional or or not.

Hamilton used the Elasticity Clause to defend the creation of the Bank. President Washington decided on the side of Hamilton, thus, the National Bank was established.

Why was Darwin's theory so controversial in the early 1800's?
galina1969 [7]

The theory of evolution by natural selection, first formulated in Darwin's book "On the Origin of Species" in 1859, is the process by which organisms change over time as a result of changes in heritable physical or behavioral traits. Changes that allow an organism to better adapt to its environment will help it survive and have more offspring. 

Evolution by natural selection is one of the best substantiated theories in the history of science, supported by evidence from a wide variety of scientific disciplines, including paleontology, geology, genetics and developmental biology.

The theory has two main points, said Brian Richmond, curator of human origins at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. "All life on Earth is connected and related to each other," and this diversity of life is a product of "modifications of populations by natural selection, where some traits were favored in and environment over others," he said.
