Eaao'a head* with Jaoob'a roiec, and a
paraon oinat bo aa blind aa the old patH-
aroh their father it he oaanot detect the
trick. It ia a profeaaod meaaan for ape-
cie paymanta whioh haa the extraordinary
peooliarity of being aatiafaetory to the
togatioaiata. The wary utmoet the iofla-
tioaiata ooold hope for waa to maintain
the eortanay in toe condition in which it
wm pot by the act of laat done—in other
verda, their poiiey, under preaent eircum-
ateaoaa waa to do nothing. The new bill
oocaaeee near to doing nothing aa poeei-
ble under the forms of legislation. It
professes to enact ia subatanoe that the
eurreapy shall neither be more abundant
nor leas abundant than it ia at present.
To be suae, It withdraws only eight mil
lions of greenbacks for every ten millions
of new bank notea put in oiroulation, and
in that view ia a measure of Inflation ;
bot its authors claim that if the banka are
compelled to keep a reserve of twenty
K r oent., the issue of ten millions of
nk notes will really add only eight mil
lions to the curreuey in aatual use, so that
the biU will work neither contraction or
expansion.
Conceding this view for the preaent,
not wishing to encumber the argument
with minor considerations, let ua
trace the operation of the bill to its
goal results, supposing it to be aneoaae-
ful, and see whether it be not a measure
of inflation. Banking ia to be perpetnel-
ly free, but this withdrawal of greenbacks
ia to eeaae when their amount ia reduced
to three hundred millions. When that
limit ia reached all the new bank notes
issued will be ao much nicer inflation.
The bill ia a perfect barrier against
commotion in all the earlier stages of
its operation, and opens the door to un
bounded inflation aa soon as the pm-
scribed limit is reached in the reduotion
of the greenbacks. It may be said that
the necessity of redemption will operate
as a check. All nonsense. Bo long aa
the banka are permitted to redeem in
greenbacks, and tbs greenbacks are ao
abundant aa this bill proposes to leave
them, redemption will be no check. Tbs
flnanoisl history of the oountry proves
that this paper ourrenoy may be enor-
mouaiy.expanded even when redeemable
in ooin. Ibis haa often happened at times
when there waa no immediate danger of
large exportations of gold. But the green
backs cannot be exported; and with three
hundred millions of a redeeming medium
aeoarsiy ia the oountry the banks will
have no faar of being unable to procure
aa large an amount of them aa they may
need.
The only eheck upon this tendency
offered by the bill is a mem soarecrow.
The repeal of the Legal Tender act, to
take effect at ao distant a date as 1871), is
a measure of mock resumption. In the
intervening four yearn there will be four
aaaaal sessions of Congress, and at any
one of them the repealing act may be
itself repealed, and will be repealed in
ibadtaaesto public clamor if the ourrenoy
should piove to bo considerably expanded
in 1878. This danger oan be averted only
by such measures ef immediate and oon
slant operation aa will steadily approxi-
mate the currency to the apeoie standard
and bring it aeourely to par before the
Legal Tender aot goes out of force. The
proposed bill has no suoh tendency, and
is therefore a abam measure .of redemp
lion. It deserves to rank no higher than
as a dexterous political dodge for giving
a deceptive appearance of unity to the Re
publican party on this great question.
Isstsratlsa or Use Tea sued Casts
Tax.
Special to Iks Olnoinaatl Commercial.]
A careful canvasa of the Finance Com.
mittee of both Houses show that the pea-
aage of the bill restoring the tax upon tea
and coffee ia very probable, and that con
sequently, there is little prospect of any
increase in the tax on whiskey. It is ex-
pectcd that the restoration of the tea
and coffee tax will provide for all neces
sary additional revenue without changing
the whiskey tax. It ia the desire of both
Finanoe Committees not to change the
whiskey tax if siflloient revenue oan be
obtained by other means. Hie little
tariff bill, which will doubtless peas, will
slightly Increase the revenue.
