A telegram from Washington to the New York Herald states : “Uutqnivocally and pos itively Secretary Richardson says that not one dollar of the resort e will be used, except for the payment of the current expenses of the government. Th*» currency receipts have fallen off, and they will probably contiuue to do so. and there is no chance to sell gold. It may therefore be necessary to draw on the reserve for weeks to come. The Secretary will do Fhirt as long as the government indebted ness demands iL" The foregoing is explicit afid direct. Still tbe words may HIDE A rrRPOSE, nod seven or nine millions of dollars thus lisbursed for government necessities, may eventually find their way to metropolis and do vast go id among our banks and fiduciary institutions. As wo have said before, how- <rr©r, tbe*kernel of our financial troubles is with the people themselves. There has been uodisa needless locking up of currency. There is a want of faith, of patriotism, of co- opemtion among ail clabses. To use plain words, there is an exhibition of cowardice on \Jiepartcf moneyed men, the combined re sult of which is the present condition and a oontinuance of it, until they find by the reaction on themselves, as a community of we*dtb, the necessity of coming to the rescuo ot binks, the unloosing of their funds and a thorough exhibition of confidence.
