We have alalcd that this report contains not only unsound doctrine (tut would violate good faith towards the Banks. We copy the follow ing portion of the Report: “ The proposed .arrangement of the currency ■night havo some great advantages in the future to which it may not be amiss at this time to ad vert* With proper legislation on the part of the Stairs it may be made probably the best pa per circulation yet devised. If after the war this government should issue treasury notes mended to bring about something like each an equilibrium, nothing should be dono to de press, but everything lo elevate the value of the certificates. To reduce the rate of inter est on them, wonld not be the most expedi ent method of effecting this object. The on ly method of-bringing into fnller demand the certificates, besides raising the ra'e of inter est on them, is by organizing a system of do mestic exchanges, by which these certificates wonld form *’a means of remittance. This could only be done by the co-operation of the Banks, as this would materially interfere with their profits on domestic exchange. Tho same difficulty would present itself here as in the case of the Banks receiving Treasury notes on deposit, and in payment. But our chief purpose is with the views of the Committee in relation to Foreign exchange.— The rate of Foreign exchange is the sole crite rion by which Ve are able to compare tho value of onr currency with that of foreign currencies. The committee would abolish this criterion, and leavo us without the means of comparison, by which our currency would be kept within its proper limits.

There can be little doubt that the circulating medium thus constituted, would be safer, aud afford a steadier standard of value, than any paper hermpfore used for that purpo.-e. It this currency mould be of less value ttian a call err tificato secured by the Coulederatc government, guaranteed by the Slate, and paying six per cent, interest, then a portion ot it would lie lundcd in these certificates until the residue rose to an equal value. If on the other hand, Irom any sudden demand, this residue of the currency should be worth more than the call certificate, dollar for dollar, such a portion of these certificates would be reconvened as would reatore the equilibrium between the two. All that would be necessary would be to keep the vilue-ot these certificates at specie pir, or near it. To do this, the government have power at any .lime to pay off these cerificates in specie, exist to avoid the evils of redundancy and de* preciation t As matters formerly stood, under a system of specie payments, it was the action of the public that regulated circulating credit.-— That action would occasionally become irregu lar-speculative. The Banks would, at times, for the sake of profit, nurse speculation, render the circulating medium excessive, leading to the exportation of specie. But there was some rule or principle by which to be governed, in the ads ministration of the currency, although subject to jerks in 'the movement of the machinery.— Now, by what rule, except the public wants could State administrators ol the currency be governed t How wonld they determine the rate of in crease of the circulating medium, to corres pond with the rate of increase of wealth and Every_n.aa when he enters into society, giVee I public use ; othorwisc wo . j up part of Lis natural liberty as the price of so roads, and foreigners might hold, enjoy and valuable a purchase; and, in consideration of I transmit our lands.
