The federal government stopped accepting paper money for the purchase of land.
Crazy Andrew Jackson was the cause.
Excessive printing of paper money on the BUS's part led to inflation during this time, so Andrew Jackson passed the Specie Circular. It only allowed payments (esp gov't land) to be made in gold and silver, exemplifying his particular hate for paper money and a centralized bank.
Jackson was completely against the Bank of the United States (BUS). After passing the Specie Circular (already weakening the BUS), he refused to renew the charter of the 2nd BUS, allowing it to collapse and withdrew all federal funds from it.
The lack of paper money, no central bank for the gov't to take money from, and the fluctuating economy due to Jackson's decisions caused the Panic.
Funny enough, Martin Van Buren was elected after the BUS turmoil ensued, and the Panic occurred within weeks of his election, and he was blamed for it. But really, it was Jackson's choice to kill the BUS that caused the Panic of 1837.
