There was a time when the people talked upon this sub ject, when our ablest financiers wrote upon it, when our Congressmen made speeches upon it and brought in bills looking to such a consummation,- when our Treasury qfficialsrefened to in their jrepbrts jina theTe wasa time when the question was one of exceedingly great interest to the public. But now we sel dom hear it spoken of. The people never mention it, the newspapers neglect it, the financiers have abandoned it. Congress men have turned their attention to other i matters, the officials of the Treasury , avoid it ; in a word, it has ceased to be a question about which the public feels any great concern. This is a cause for alarm. We are slumbering in a dangerous place. I am not an alarmist, but I look upon the apathy to this question as a very un healthy sign. We seem to have settled down to a determination to “bear the ills we have,” while apparently we are per fectly unconscious that other and greater ones must, sooner or later, follow it. Our physicians tell us that the existence of one disease in the bodily system makes it much easier for more serious and more complicated ones to fasten themselves upon it. So it is with our financial sys tem. The evil of a depreciated currency seems to have fastened itself permanent ly to it, and when greater financial dif ficulties arise we will not be in a strong and healthy condition, able to meet them and cast them off. We ail see this evil, but we seem to be resigned to it, and like Micawber we are “waiting for something to turn up.” We have ceased to act. We have almost ceased to think about it. Now, all this is to be depreciated. It is a very unhealthy sign, and we have good cause for feeling alarmed at the lethargic state of the public mind on a question so j important to the most vital interests of I the nation. | I do not pretend to say where the 1 blame for this condition of things lies, j For a number of years after the close of | the late war we started on a career great prosperity. Ohr paper had become ! so much depreciated that it required over two dollars and a half to buy one dollar of gold. Less than years ago the premi- j am on gold had sunk to less than ten per ( cent- But that was as far as we ever got. i It has since risen slowly and gradually, j with slight flunctuations, and on Satur day last it was quoted at 115?£ In this ; neighborhood it stands. Something ! must be done, for things cannot always I remain so. • There are two cla*es of people in the community of which I desire to speak. One is that class who so readily perceive the evils that exist, who can so eloquent ly point them oat, but who are utterly in capable of suggesting a remedy. Such people serve a most excellent purpose. Without them society would “go to the dogs." They serve in the capacity of sentinels to give ns warning when danger approaches. One ot the most eminent ol this dlass fjs Mr. Wendell Phillips. He can tell ua in language Uiat arouses os into life of the evils which surround us, to that foatfltidtt of things w, become practicable. . Horace r Gteelejr used rosay “If you want to respme, Se same.” Bateaid those of the opposite school, “This won’t do. We haven't the specie with which to do it. and, if we bad, it would not do to resume now, dor each a proceeding would so upset prices as to ruin business." It was therefore thought best to let the matter take its natural coarse, to allow the value of our currency and of specie to gr&dnally ap proach each other, so that the transition wonld not be perceptible to the business community. We have been following this plan, bnt the values of the two kinds of money do not natnrally approach each other. On the contrary they are becotn-1 ing mere widely separated. Gold is worth more than it was three years ago, or rather greenbacks arc worth less. We are told that this Is because there is too great a volume of paper currency in cir culation, and urged to con tract it. On the other band we hear the cry from all parts of the country, espe cially from the country people and resi dents of country villages, of the scarcity of the circulating medium. What are we to do? We all want our greenbacks to appreciate in value till they become as good as gold. How are we going to accomplish it ? By selling gold and buying bonds? We have tried this, but it does no good. Bonds keep up, but greenbacks continue to go down. Let me give my plan. The government receives annually from custom duties about one hundred and ninety millions in gold, a little over half a milliion daily. Inutead of selling this gold to the gamblers of Wall Street, I would endeavor to get it into circulation among the people. If the gold and silver of the country could he distributed among the entire people there would soon be uo difference between its value and that of greenbacks. 1 would suggest for accomplishing that result, that Congress pass an act in- structing the Secretary of the Tresasury from sod after a certain day to exchange this gold for greenbacks, a certain amount each day (say a quarter of a million, for we have the gold with which to do this! and to prevent rings and cliques from monopolizing it, let it be provided that ibis proceeding bo not limited to New York alone. Let the government} de- positarics in the various cities and towns tbroughout the country be instructed to make Ibis exchange to a specified amount each day. When the amount bo specified shall have been exchanged let it stop till the next day or the nest week as the case may be. To matte still greater provision against the possibility of the coin being bought up by gold gamblers let it be pro vided that no larger amount than (say) one hundred dollars be exchanged for any -one person on any one day. teUpecUWe : n'i ■* V l Porta* Beaver Radical, j Tlie |
