What is Official Paper of the City tob6d «ne wi,h tbem? ^ his question must LARGEST ClftSIlATIONil THE CITY AID GOtlMTY SATURDAY, MARCH 3, 1866. £3- Interesting reading matter on the 4th page- THE OH THE REPUBLICAN PRESS PRESIDENT. Many of the republican journals are pain fully exercised over the late veto of the President, and do not hesitate to denounce the act as basely treacherous to the party which elected him. They seem to be unable to fiatt language sufficiently pointed to ex press fully the intensity of thier bitterness. Ouc is led to suppose from these manifesta tions of resentment and indignation that it is by no means improbable that the fearless and patriotic course of the President will result net only in tfre discomfiture of the avowed revolutionary designs aof their leaders but the complete dispersion of the republican p„rtv. One journai says that the message of the President will fall like the cold hand of death upon the warm impulses of the Ameiican people; another declares that there is not one rebel from Canada to Brazil who is not enraptured by the veto. A ma jority of them concur in the opinion ‘-that he has proven false to himself, to his glori ous war record, to his pledges to the colored people of the South and to his party by thus piaciug himself with the copperheads and rebels, and that he will have cause to regret it to the end of a very brief political exist ence and for all his life thereafter. Oa the other hand, there are a few of the Republican papers which, while equally dis satisfied witli the veto, are reluctant to let go their hoiu on the President, lest in the fury of the coming storm they sink below the sur face. never to rise again. They, therefore, counsel prudence and moderation. Pretend ing to believe that the President is only op posed to- the particular form in which their plan of reconstruction has been presented, they decline to recognize, for the present, that there is any necessity for a rupture. But the affected serenity of this class of journals has been ruffled by the defiant utterances and pairiotic exhortations of the Executive on the occasion of the meeting of the Wash ington Monument Association, on the 22<> instaut. Their cry is, that it is not dignified thus to address the people; that singling out the names of leading Republicans and de- dounciug them as traitors was, to say the least of it, untimely and ill-tempered. This may be true. But when they heard the equal- U^)lain saying? of his predecessor when addressing the people, they never re garded them as undignified; nor would words be so considered if they had been uttered by-any one, however elevated, against Mr. Johnson. The sting is in the fact that the Radicals have been denouncing him in the Senate and House, have been calling him a traitor, have been circulating abusive speeches broadcast among the people, and never supposed for a moment that there was in the whole House a man ready to use their own weapons in defence of his own character and in support of measures vital to the interests of the whole country. The President may have exhibited too much feeling on the occasion referred to, but, if so, he was provoked to the indiscretion by the rude and insulting language of the men whom he so severely denounced ; and, there fore, they and their political friends have Dot the right to criticise the speech. A few Republican papers when lampooning the President for alleged recreancy to his party, take occasion in that connection to heap abuse upon the people of the South, and conclude by saying that their professions of loyalty are not sufficiently demonstrative to produce convictions of sincerity. I' should be enough for the Government to know that the people of the South are and will be true to the Constitution of the Uuited Slates, and to the pledges they have given to that effect. There is no honest and true-hearted southern man who did not be lieve he was doing right when he took up arms against the United States Government, and it may be many of those who believed so then, believe so now. But it seems as it some of our Republican cotemporaries can not distinguish between a manly submission to stern necessity, and the cringing syco phancy of a detected thie£ and seem to think that southerners must be whining pen itents, or still rebellious. But they are neither. As a conquered people they ac cept tne terms imposed upon them—giviug their honor andt interests as security for a faithful observance of these terms, be answered by the strong arm of the govern ment. From present indications, they are to be a source of much trouble and expense. Secretary Seward refutes to recognize the Shenandoah, except as' the “British regis tered ship Sea King,” and informs Mr. Ad ams that he will not ash for her condemna tion, because he does not expect justice from the British government. BY TELEGBAPH. Georgia Legislature. Milledoeville, March 2.—The House to-day con curred in the Senate’s amendment of the revenue bill. The bill proposes to raise by taxation $750,000. T!io House authorized the Governor to issue $1,500,- 000 of State bonds pledging the State road and- its in. come for thoir redemption. FROM WASHINGTON. Concurrent Resolution Excluding South* era Representatives Passed bjr the Sen ate. Washington, March 2.—The House of Bepresenta- tives were engaged all day to-day In the discussion of the civil rights bill, whieh.’was.finally postponed until Thursday next. The Senate to-day passed the concurrent resolution relative to the admission of the Bepresentativcs of the southern States by a vote of 29 to 18. ' [This resolution which has already passed the House declares in substance that no Bepresentatives from any southern State shall be admitted in either House of Congress, until after Congress shall have declared such State entitled to such Representative. It will be observed that the measure was carried in the Senate by even a smaller majority than was given to the amended Freedmen’s Bureau bill. As it is in direct hostility to the President’s plan of reconstruction, it is highly probable that it will receive his veto.—Ed- Herald.] Mobile Cotton Mar bet.

New Yoke, March 2.—The cotton market closed to day with an advanced tendency; aales of 3000 bales at 44c. Also, 3000 bales good at 39Ji to 40 low ordi nary to middling fair. Gold is quoted at 35)£. Hunt’s Merchants’ Magazine for Feb ruary. This is an interesting number. The article entitled •' Banking, Currency and Finance,” throws much light on currency contraction. Thera is no controversy as relates to the fact of redundancy. Opinions are very variant as to the mode of its reduction. All appear to deprecate sudden curtailment—atoo rapid reduction of prices. The great succedaneom appears to be a grad ual reduction, one to curtailing the volume of paper money that it would amount to a return to the normal state of the currency by almost insensible grada tions. According to the Merchants' Magazine this has been our position for some months past. We are re turning to specie payments not being conscious that we are doing so. Gold has fallen in three months considerably. The prices of nearly all commodities have fallen, except locally. The theory of this fall of gold and general prices is very simple, and yet It iB remarkable that the author as he sayB, is the only one that has made the discove ry. it is, says he, a noteworthy and very gratifying fact that this contraction has been effected without any of those spasms which usually r attend such changes, and is altogether due to the compound-inter est notes. They have proved to be at once the most pow erful, the most satisfactory, aud the most elastic of all the methods which have ever been devised for checking the inflation and contracting the volume of a depreciated paper money. Of these compound notes there are at present out standing $180,000,000; most of which have now ceased to circulate as money. The volume of our active cur rency has thus been lessened to a corresponding ex tent, and the contraction of the currency has pro duced and will continue to produce • powerful effect on prices. Nor is this result mysterious or inoapable of ration al explanation. It is in perfect accordance with the well known principles of monetary science. For as the best authors tell ue, there are two things which chiefly govern the depreciation of paper money, first: its quantity, and secoudly, its activity. If we wish to diminish the depreciation of our currency we must THE GOVERNMENT AMD THE MOR MONS. We see it stated that several Federal offi cers of the Mormon faith in Utah territory have been removed and successors appointed who eschew the divinity of Brigham Young. This would seem to indicate that a radical change of policy in, reference to the political and social status of that ungodly people is contemplated by the government. The ex tirpation of this loathsome excrescence of the body politic is demanded by the moral sentiment ot the country, and it is to be hoped' the federal authorities will perform -the-operation in the most summary manner. There are id Brigham Young's dominions over one hundred thousand people, shat up in their mouutaiu fastuesses, nearly three thousand miles from the national metropolis, who are quietly and, as they believe, securely solving the problem of poligamy. Twelve hundred miles of desert and mountain lie between them aujl the remote frontiers of civiliza tion. 5 5. ■ ' i : The religious sentiments of the Mormons are revolting alike to the sentiments of the Puritans aud the churchmen. But it i9 their position with regard to the Uuited States government which creates a real difficulty of great magnitude. A separate and distinct people are growing up in our midst, differing in manners, customs, habits, and even in language. It hWbeen said that ah these dif ferences may be cultivated by any State in the Union, that each State having the consti tutional right to pass its own laws regulatiog its domestic affairs, is creating by slow de grees a distiuct people. This is no doubt true, to some extent, but the evil, if it be an evil, is in some measure counteracted by the influence of the laws of the general govern ment which in limes of peace have operated alike upon all States; by a free interchange of opinion, and intercourse one with another. diminish either its quantity or activity or both, Such is the problem to be solved in the restoration of our currency. We shall lessen its depreciation in proportion as we either lower its quantity or retard its activity. As we stated before, this is being done by the compound interest notes. These notes, when first issued, move as quickly from baud to hand as ordi nary greenbacks; but as interest accrues they circu late slowly, because they are legal tender only for their face, and the holder, if he pays them out loses the interest. After a few months they accumulate in the vaults of banka and elsewhere, and do not emerge from their retreat to join the current of the circula tion except when some stringency or pressure in the. money market aummoas them. And at length, when they are sufficiently fat.with interest, they Blumber in their biding place, nomatter how severe the pinch and monetary spasm may be. Here, then, we have the problem of contraction completely solved. We seo a legal tender note passing through all the stages at diminishing activity, until at last it is, for aU prac tical purposes, as completely demoralized and fixed as tile United States bonds themselves. “This, then, is the machinery for contracting our currency. It is a plan which is now in operation. It has stood the test of experience. What remains to be done is to use it wisely. Let the whole mass of green backs be gradually, slowly converted into compound interest notes falling due at different dates. Let fheso compound notes be funded into long bonds on liberal terms during their third year; and Anally let the bauks continue to use these notes as a part of their reissue until maturity, but not afterwards. In other words, let these notes cease to be legal tenders at maturity.’’ This is a plan that is both plausible and safe. It changes the character of the security so gradually that the treasury never can become embarrassed either as to amount of debt or time of payment, while it diminishes the volume of the floating debt, convert ing it from paper of indefinite obligation into long dated bonds, whilst it lessens the volume of the cur rency. The objection to this plan appears to be in the slowness of its operation. It may require some years to effect the contemplated conversion—first, from greenbacks into compound interest notes; and, secondly, from cc mpound interest notes into long- dated bonds. CIRCULAR.
