FROM the Rnftsman't Journal we
learn that Hiram Woodward Las so far
recovered as to bo able to attend to bin
extensive lumbering business,
Thirtt-iivk tears ago Thomas H.
13enton, "Old Bullion)" as be was called
delivered a ppecch upon fiuances in the
United States Senate, in tho courso ol
which bo madesomo remarks which bear
upon a prominent issue of to-day. One
passage was as follows : "One of the
bigbesl Junction which niouey is to meas
ure Values. That is a fuuetiou which
paper cannot pcrtorm.jjjJiyTho measure- of
values must "itself possess intrinsic value,
must ielt' be free from sudden or
ma'crialvariatious of value. As well
might you attempt to make a measure of
lengths out of which has no length; a
measure of quantities out of that which
has no capacity to held any quantity, as
to endeavor to make a measure out of
that which has no bitrinsio value, The
precious metals alone can constitute n
measure cf valuables; paper money can
mcasuro the valuo of nothing, not even
of ltsell; its own value is eternally meas
ured by its icactiou by its converti
bility into specie." This 1.1 stating
the case strongly, and few will deny tho
truth of the assertion, but our difficulty
Is to discover a method by which we
can return to specie payment Mo the
shortest possibly time corsifiteut with
the business interest of tho country
And yet Jhe problem is unsolved.
