army and sailore, of the navy ; the
artisans -who tail in the_nation's
workshops ) or the mecnairicaland is
borers who build ita edifices'aad con•
ttruct,ibi forts and vessels of wily,
should, in payment of their just alla
hard-earned dues, receive - depreciated
,paper, while ' another class
.of their
countrymen, no more deserving, are
paid in coin of gold and silver. Equal
and exact justice requires -that all
the creditors of the Government
should be paid in .a'currency possess
ing a uniform value. This ,can only
be aceompliahed by the restoration
of the currency to the'standard estab
lished by the Constitution ; and by
this means we, would remove a dis
crimination , ihich may, if it it has
not already Alone so, create a preju
dice that niay become deep-rooted
and wide spread and imperil the Na
tional credit.
The feasibility of making our cur
rency correspond with the constitu
tional standard, may • be seen , by ref
, erence to a few facts derived from'
our commercial statistics. The pro
duction oft precious metals in the
,United Stateafrom 1845 to 1857, in
clusive, amounted to - $579,000,000 ;
from 1858 to 1060,inelusive, to $137,-
960,006 ; andfrom 1861 to 1867, in
clusiite, to $457,500,000 ; making a
grand aggregate of products since
1854 of 1,174,000,000. The amount
of specie coined from 1849 to 1857,
inclusive,
was $439,000,000 ; from
1850 - to 1860, inclusive, $125,000,000;=
and from 1861 to 1867,, inclusive,
$310,000,000, making total coinage
since 1849, $874,000,000. Fr0m . 1847
t 0.1857, inclusive, the netexports of
specie - amounted to $271,000p0 ;
from 1858 to 1860, inclusive, to $148,-
00,000 ; and from 1861 'to 1867, in
clusive, to $322,000,000 ;.making an
aggregateef net exports since 1849,
of $741,000,000. These figures show
. an excess of product over net exports
of' $433,000,000. There are in the
Treasury $111,000,000 in coin, some
thing more than $40,000,000 in circa
lation on the Pacific coast, and a few
millions inliational and other banks
—in all about $160,000,000. This,
however, taking into account the
envie in the country prior to .1849,
Idaires more than $300,000,000 which
have'not been accounted for by ex
portation, and therefore may yet re
main the country. These are impor
tant facts, and show how completely
au inferior currency will supercede a
better, forcing- it from circulation
among the masses, and causing it to
beexpdrted as a mere article of trade
to add to the money capital of for
eign lands. They show the- necessi.
ty of retiring - our paper money, that
the return of gold lead silver to the
- avenues of trade may be invited, and
a demand created which will cause
the retention rat home of at least so
much of the productions of our rich
and inexhaustible goldkrearing fields
as may be sufficient for the purposes
- of circulation. It is unreasonable to
expect a return to a sound currency
so long as the Goierurnent, by con
tinuing to issue irredeemable notes,
.., fills the - channels of circulation with
depreciated paper. Notwithstanding
the coinage by our wints since 1849
of $874,000,000. the people are now
strangers to the currency which was
designed for their , use and benefit,
and specimens of the precious met
als bearing the national devices are
r&dom seen except when produced
to gratify the intere •t excited by,their
,lovelty. If depreciated' paper is to
be continued as the permanent cur
rency of the easatrA and all our coin
is to become a mere article of traffic
and speculation, to the enhancement
• in-priceof all that is indispensiblo
to the comfort of the people, it would
be wise economy to abolish oar mints
thus saving the nation ((the care and
expense incident to sneh' establish
- . ments, and let our pre,eious metals
be exported in bullion,, The time has
come, however, when the Govern
ment and the National Banks should
be required to take most efficient
steps-, and make :all necessary ar
rangements, for.a resumption of spe
cie payments at the . earliest practica
ble period. Specie paymenta Having
' been once resumed by 'the Govern
- ment and the banks, all rotes r bills
of paper issued by either of a less .
denomination than $2O, should by
law be excluded from circulation, so
' that the people way have the benefit
and .convenience of ,a gold and silver
currency, which in all their business
transactions will be uniform in value
at home and abroad. Every man of
property or industry, every man who
• desires to preserve what he honestly
}possesses, or to- obtain what he can
honestly earn, has a direct interest in
maintaining a safe circulating medi
um, such a'medium as shall be real
and substantial, not liable to vibrate
' with opinions, not subject to be blown
up or blown down by a breath of
.speculation, but to be Made stable
and secure. A disordered currency
is one of the greatest of political
•418. Ito undermines the virtues ne
p,.seary for the, support of the social
system, and encourages propensities
'destructive of its happiness. It wars
against industry, &utility and econ
-91-n.Y, and it fosters the evil spirits of
extravagance and speculation, it
has been asserted by one o our moat
gifted statesmen that of all contri
vances for - cheating the laboring
' classes of mankind, none has been
inure effectual than that which de
ludes them with paper money. This
is the most of inventions to
fertilize the rich nati'e field by the
sweat of the poor man's brow. Or
dinary tyranny, oppression and ex- /
I:essive taxation, these bear lightly

THE REVENUE SERVICE
The attention of Congress is earn ;
estly invited to the necessity of a
thorough revision of our revenue sys;
tem.- Our internal revenue laWs and
impost system should be sp tulfusted
as to bear moat heavilyOu articles of
luxury, leaving the necessaries Of
life as free. from taxation as may be
consistent with the real wants of. the
Government, economically adminis
tered. -Taxation would not then fall
unduly on the man of moderate means, .
and -while none would be entirely ex
empt from assessment, all in propor
tion-to their pecuniary abilities would
contribute toward the support of the
State. A modification of our inter
nal revenue system by a large reduc- -
tion in the number of articles now .
subject to tax, would be followed by
results equally advantagiOus to the
citizens . and the Government. It
would render the execution of the
law less expensive and more certain;
remove obstructions to industry, less
en temptation to evade the law,
minish violations, make ita operations
less inquisitorial,.and greatly reduce
in numbers the army of tax-gathers
created - by the system, who take from
the mouth of honest labor the bread
it has earned. Retrenchment, reform
and economy should be carried into
every branch of the public service,
that the expenditures of the Govern
ment inay be reduced and the people
relieved from oppressive taxation. A
sound currency should be restored,
and the public faith in regard to the
national debt sacredly observed.—
The accomplishment of these import
ant results, together with the restora
tion .of the United: States upon the
principles of the amstitutibn, would
inspire confidence at home and abroad
in the' stability of our institutions,
and bring to the nation prosperity,
peace and good will:
THE WAR DEPART RENT.
The report of the Secretary of War
ad inteiim, exhibits the operations of
the army awl the several Bureaus of
the War Depaitment. The aggre-
K strength of the military force
on a the 10th of September last was
56,315. The total estimate for mili
tary appropriations is ;77,124,707, in
cluding deficiencies in last year's ap
propriation to the amount of 018, 7 ,
800,000. Payments at the Treasury
on account of the service of the War
Pepartment from Jan. I to Oot.
1867, a period of ten months, amoan
ted -to $109,807,00. The expenses
of the militaryestablishment, as well
as the numbers of the army, are now
three times as great as they have
ever been in time of peace, while
discretionary power is vested in the
Executive to add millions to this ex
penditure by an increase of the army
to the maximum strength allowed by
law,
THE INDIAN DIFFICULTM3.
The comprehensive report 'of the
Secretary of the Interior furnishes
interesting information iu reference
to important branches of public set t
via() connected with his department.
The menancing.attitude of some war
like bands of Indiana inhabiting the
district of country between the Ar
kansas-and Platte Rivers, and por
tions of Dacotah Territory, required
the presence of a large military force
.in that region. Instigated by real
or imaginary grievanpes, the Indiaes
occasionally committed acim of bar
barous violence upon emigrants and
our frontier settlements. But a gen
,eral Indian . war . has been providenti
tally averted. The Commissionerst,
under the act of the ?fill of July,
MI, were invested - with full power
to adjast existing difficulties - '
negoti
ate treaties 'with disaffected bands,
and eel ct them reservations remote
from traveled routes . between the
Mississippi River. and the Pacific.—
They mitered without. delay upon the
execution of their trust, Out have not
yet made an official report of thir
proceedings. ft, is of vital import
once 'that our', distant Terr)turies
should be exempt from radian out
breaks, and that the construction of
the Pap* Railroad, an object of no
tional impbrtaae, pkoiltd not be in
terrupted by, hostile tibex. These
objects, as well 1141 th'e material in,
Hterests and the moral and iqtellecLual.
improvement of the Indians, can be
most effectually s ( ecured by concen
trating - them u / pon portions of'-the
country net aptcrt fur their excluilve
use and loos at pr,iuta respote from
the highwqa and encroaching:white

The people in the West Indies, with

since that time. 'A not entirely dis
similar naval want revealed itself
during the entue pertufl on the Bacilli)
coast, The required foothold there
was fortunately 'secured by our late
treaty with the Emperor o: Russia,
and it now seems imperative that the
more 'obvious necessity of - the Atlan

proVided for. A goed and peviniielit

Indies naturfi.liy, igraVitate Ks. and
may be e;`pdqted •illiiplately '
to en
absorbed by Oontineotal §tates, iii- ' I
eluding our own. I agree with them,
aleo,that it is wise to leave the clue s tion of such absorption to this process
of natural political gravitation. The
Islands of S t . Thoinas aud St. Jams,'
which cons titute a part of the' groqp
oat* the Virgin Islands, seemed t..)
oiler all advantages immediately de-
eirable..while their acquisitioe could
be secured in harmony with the prin.
copies ' tci which I hays nlledeil. 4
treaty has therefore been cameleded
'with the King of Denmark for the
cession of those islands, and will be
submitted : to the Senate fur consider
