The two huudrdd millions would bodrawn
dutin a day,and still Jcavo afloat tw-<
hu Wired and fifty millions of national
bunk paper. There is wot Abe f*hr*<J.in
ger that Congress will AVer autborizu
such n project ns this. An to the sale of
gold lioui the Treasury, it is a matter of
very little imjH.itnnco—none at r.ll in re-
frreuco to a return to specie payments.
Thospeculiitois will take up (lio gold a«
f 1st ns it appears in tlie market, and hold
'it for a riso» .
'l’li* only means by which n return to
n gold basis cun be promoted is by con
tracting tho currency, und this can. be
gradually done without any injury to
uumiicB, especially ua r.o very large a-
mount of business 1ms been trausuctcd
on credit for tho last threo «-r fliur years,
• artainly not since September, 1808,
when llio emancipation proclimution ap
peared.
Tlio amount of legal tender that can,
under the existing law, bo withdrawn an-
n.ially, i* limited to forty-pighk millions a
year. We do not know that ovon that n-
inount will ho withdrawn. It will not
be, probably, if it iuerfores wijh tho fund*
ing process whicti is now so Auccetsfully
inuiigunfted. J edging from the general
tenor of opinion in financial nod political
circles, we aro inclined to the opinion
heretofore expressed, that OhBgrco*, nt
tho coining session, will do nothing to
.promote) a more rapid witlnlrbwal of la-
gal tender front • ircultution; and ptesent
1 trices of all commodities will, therefore, ^
ie maintained. The longer the currency 'll
remains in its present full volume, the '
miro difficult aud hazardous will bo tliu u
process of its coAtr.;<-tion. All burin -.-m j|
operations may be, therefore, safely 1 *
bused, for a long time to come, upon tbo r.
present inflation of tla^ currency. (Jj
