The more it has labored, however, toe: less boa been the stability of the carrezioy—the periods distinguished by its most earnest efforts basing beta those In which we have been most compelled to dispense with the use of the itrecious metals.— But recently, money, as we are, told, abounded— the channel/ of circulation having been every where filled with gold. No* money of every kind bas almost altogether dis4peared. "There is scarcely," rays a recent , ,traieler, "an Eastern bank note to be found west of Cleveland, and any few dollars that may straggle bit way ai re eager •ly snapped,up and sent Bait 1 a remittance.— Gold is hidden, where it still lingers ; but very Much, not wily, of 'this but of silver change, has been gathered up and sent Eatit. • Nebraska bank notes, generally of dubious solrency, and uniform ly convertible into specie or Eastern paper only at a ruinous dismount, corpoilttion shiuplasters, and even individual shinplasters—none of theta regarded es of any value far outside of the shadow Of the 'tall Dunks', whence they are listied-;-.4re the accepted substitutes for money in most locali ties upon and welt of the Mississippi.

He . aecepted the corn very gladly, goweight twent y-five cent tickets in ex change tor it, and'sung it ont." Similar to this, Mr. President, was t h e atate.of things Sit the close of the first trial of "free-trade" system, which, as you have so'clearly seen: we do not at present require.. So was it. too, in 184641, -at the close of the second experiment—the. only difference between it and its predecessor having been that the second crisis was far more fearful than the first. So is it now, when we are fast ap proaching the elusieef the third experiment—eactr and'every trial of the favorite Valley of the central Vorernment the* ending in.tbe total disappear— !MCC olthat "metallic 4ste'whickit hu so much desired to increase. • - ' , IWhy le this eo 3 Because, Mr. President,your phdecesiors scent eve to, have reflected, to bo en abled to rise a co inodity or thing, we most first enable ou el get it; and that a regular influx of the p echoes metals is quite as necessary to the 'maintenance of the bard money circulation, as is an influx of bides and cotton to enable us to wear shoes and shirts. While asserting that mu • any is a tuere commodity, they do dot admit that it is sehject to the SWIM laws which :govern other commodities. fled our policy , tended to produce so great an export of cotton as to compel our people to go In - rags, no one would have thoughtbf charging the dealers 10 cotton with crime; end yet while pursuing a policy that has, whenever tried, resultedl in the disappearance of the precious metals, the fact of inability to pro. duce them whin demanded.' has, always been re garded as ovideneb of 'criminality in _the hanks, warranting new additions, e the pains and penal= ties provided by existing laws. Year alter year, since the central Government undertook the regu. lation of the'currency, have they been increased; and yet, despite the' penalties, suspensions have occurred. They must continuo to occur, until the central Government shell come to appreciate the value of that very homely'proverb which teaches . that a boy cannot - eat a cake and yet give it— thence learning that ;a cemmuoity cannot, 'mare than en individual, pursue a course tending promote the expulsion of the,pracious metals, and ' yet enjoy all the advantages attendant upon the maintenance of a specie circulation. All commodities, lilt, President, go from those places at Which their utility is small, to those at , which it is great. Therefore- it is, that cotton, wool, sod ether-raw materials, tend toward those places at which employments ere most diversified', it being there that the products of the fain eons- ; mond the largest ,quantity urinal:ley., gold and silver folkiw in the train of raw materials; and for the reason that where the . fanner and the arti san are most enabled to combine, finished commo dities ye always cheapest. When Germany ex ported, corn and wool; they were cheap, ind:ohe was required to retain, gold to aid in-paying for the cloth and paper she imported--the latter be ing very dear. Now she imports both wool and ,raga; her farmers obtain high , price for their products, and are enriched; apd the geld conies to her because cloth and,paper are so cheap that she sends theman the most distant quarters of the world. So is it With Fran* Belgium, Sweden and, Denmark, all - of which are large importers of raw notteriats, and- of gold: In all those coon tries`raw materials rise in price; and the greater the tendency - to rise, the were rapidly meet th e current njtheprcciotte metals vet is that direction. The country that domes to increase its.supplies of gold and thus lower, the price et . 'peony,' is,' .therefore, required toparsne the coarse °Fidley, tending mortto rake, the prices 'of raw material, and lower thoseof manufacturer.. This, however, is directly the opposite of the policy advocatedly the British school, which seeks, in the cheapening of all the raw material of manufactory', the of advancing civilization.

In 1828, them was enacted ,the lint tariff tending directly to the promotion of association throughout the country, and its effects exhibit themselvis in an excess import of the precious metals—averaging $4,000,000 a year —notwithstanding the discharge, in t at period, of the whole of the national debt Om,' had been held in Europe, amounting to many Miens.— ' Potting together Abe discharge- of debt and the ' import of colt, the balance of trade in that peri od must have beanie our favor to the-extent, of nearly 850.000,000, or an average of. ahqut $lO,- 000,000 a year.
