Of the Message of his Excellency the Governor, with the
acica.panyititi documents, as relates to “State endorsement
ol‘ the (foul, derate dobt,” have had the same under consid
eration, and a majority of the committee make the follow
ing
REPORT.
The currency of the Confederate States consists almost
exclusively of notes issued by the Confederate Govern
ment, and is rapidly depreciating from excessive issue.
It is liable to depreciation of another kind, and from-anoth
er- cause, which is perhaps more pernicious than the other.
r J he fact cannot be concealed that there is a distrust of the
ability of the Confederate Government to redeem the notes,
which have been and may be issued.
The depreciation arising from excessive issue contributes
to the depreciation of the other kind to which allusion
lias been made. The remedy for the first is to reduce the
circulation, but that alone will be no remedy for the other.
If the amount of notes in circulation should be reduced
by being funded in interest bearing bonds, so that the cir
culation shall approximate the amount required by the bus
iness of the country, the depreciation from a distrust of
the solvency of the Government will not be removed; for
funding the notes will merely change the form of the in
debtedness, but will not reduce its amount, nov make its
payment more certain and secure ; on the contrary it will
be increased to the extent of the interest which the bonds
will bear. Though funding the notes may, to some extent,
remedy the depreciation from excessive issue, it will not
prevent the other depreciation alluded to, and which is the
most hurtful of the two. There may be a redundancy in
bonds, as well as in notes, for capitalists will be as unwilling
to hold the bonds as they are the notes, when they distrust
the ability of the government to meet its liabilities. Be
ing thrown upon the market in large amounts from an ap
prehension of their ultimate failure, depreciation must ne
cessarily ensue.
To remove depreciation from excessive issue, funding o'
the notes is recommended. That may prove an effectual
remedy for the first evil complained of in the currency,
but it is only one step towards sustaining the credit of the
notes. Something more is necessary or that step will be
unavailing.
ft has been suggested that to make them a legal tender
in payment of debts would have the effect to sustain their
credit, but that would neither reduce the volume of cir
culation, nor remove the apprehension of the ability of the
Government to redeem its notes. They are promises to
pay money, and to inaWthem a legal tender would not
change the contract, or release tiie {' ro j n its
obligation to redeem them when they'fall oue 5 wu w nu ]j
the effect would be practical repudiation.
Taxation is also recommended as a remedy for the evil
complained of. Taxation is necessary and should be re-
*0. but that alone will not accomplish the object.
It would simply reduce the circulation, for tiie time being,
the amount of the taxes 2*nid, and no more; but in time of
war, and when, as in the case of our Government, the ex
penses are met almost exclusively by the issue of Treasu
ry notes, the annual tax, which may be levied, will be in
sufficient for the wants of the Government, and therefore
ineffectual to reduce the amount of notes in circulation
to the usual and proper level of the currency. Taxation
is necessary, and in conjunction with other measures, will
have a beneficial effect. But the great necessity which is
upon us, is to give credit to the Government issues; and
to sustain it, something is necessary besides retiring the
circulation, and changing the form of the indebtedness.—
W hat is wanting is confidence; an abiding confidence that
the notes and principal and interest of tiie bonds will be
paid.
How is this confidence to be inspired? In the first place,
by a strict observance of good faith ; by avoiding repudia
tion, and everything leading to it.
Secondly, by providing the means, as far as practicable,
for the payment of the interest of the public debt, and a
fond for its ultimate redemption. Such a fund should be
is an obligation upon them to support both. They are bound •
INowif the Confederate Government has incurred, and is
incurring a heavy debt, as the agent of Georgia, and her c'o-
States, and in their defense, why should not each bear her
proportionate share of that debt? What satisfactory ob
jection can be urged against it ? Will it be said that the
debt was incurred by the Confederate Government, and
therefore that government should pay it ? The answer is,
the Confederate Government incurred it for the benefit ot
the people of the States, and as their agent, and the means j
of payment, if it shall ever be paid, must come from them. ;
They can come from no where else. Why not then let the J
States indorse the debt, which their people must ultimately j
pay V It may be said that this is tantamount to a man’s in- j
dorsing his own note. The cases are not strictly analogous.!
It would be more proper and correct to sffy, that it would j
be the principal recognizing and indorsing tho .act of hisj
agent. In such a case the validity of the act of the agent ;
would be placed beyond dispute. So in the case under con- Ar*u
sideration. Let the States indorse the payment of the Con
federate debt, it. will be equivolent to an indorsement of the !
acts of their agent, and assuming a liability which their j yu r .
agent incurred in their behalf, and for their benefit.
Aud the great controlling reason is that the effect of such |
indorsement will be to strengthen the credit of the Cooled- I
erate bonds and notes, but without their credit may suffer
material injury, and with its loss, if that should unfortu
nately occur, we lose everything valuable in this life—cred
it, property, liberty, independence—all will be buried in
one common grave. When this credit is gone, with it will
go our means of defense—when we lose our means of de
fense, subjugation, or submission will follow. To avert so
dire a calamity, every effort, and all means should be used
to sustain the credit of tbe Confederate Government.
To this end, and lor this purpose, we think the measures
indicated in the following resolutions indispensably necessa
ry.

A BILL
To be entitled an act to alter and amend an act to prevent
the unnecessary consumption of grain by distillers and
manufacturers of spirituous liquors in this State ; ap
proved November 22d, 1SG2.
Sec. 1. The General Assembly of the State of Georgia
accumulated gradually, amt applied in extinguishment of j do enact, That the first section of the ad of which this is
the debt, as its accumulation may justify. And to remove amendatory, be so altered and amended as to read as follows,
and as such become the law of this Stale: From and after
the passagd'of this act, and for twelve months after the
ratification of a treaty of peace between the United States
aud the Confederate States ; it shall not be lawful for any
person or persons to make or cause to be made, within this
State any whisky, alcohol or other spirituous or malt li
quors, from the articles of corn, wheat, rye, barley, oats,
millet, rice or other grain, nor from tlic articles of sugar,
molasses, syrup, sugar cane, honey, sweet potatoes, Irish
potatoes, pumpkins, peas, or dried fruit, in any form or
the tlaiiger which now threatens the public credit, and to
insure confidence, in the third place, the States of the Con
federacy should come to the aid ot the Government, and
support its credit by endorsement of its bonds.
Credit is the main, and indeed the sole, dependence of
our Government for the means of" defence in the war with
the United States. Under present circumstances, no reve
nue can bo raised from duties on importations, or if any,
it will be inconsiderable in amount. Taxation cannot
raise the means rendered necessary by the war in which
we are engaged.
Wars are expensive. Tiie most wealthy nations arc com
pelled to resort to loans and extraordinary means to raise
money in time ot war. The ordinary revenues of 110 coun
try in such a time are sufficient for its wants.
Our Confederate Government, just struggling into exis
tence, cannot be expected to be exempt front the lot com
mon to all nations. Credit is the chief reliance of *11, of
the wealthiest as well as the poorest, nations, to meet the
expenses necessarily incurred by war.
The only resource of our Government in the present
emenrency consists in the issue of notes promising to pay
money. The necessities of our country require the daily,
and constant issue of such notes. It is a duty due to the
people, who are the holders of these nptes, to protect them
against depreciation. Patriotism demands that their credit
be sustained. If that be destroyed our means of defence
will be gone, and submission to an odious despotism, or
subjugation by it, will be tiie inevitable result. These notes
constitute thd debt incurred by the Government in defence
of the people <>f the Confederate States, and the people of
the States rrfust pay the debt.
Loans of money cannot be obtained with which to pros
ecute our defence. Our Confederate Government is yet un
recognized b) Foreign Governments, and it cannot be ex
pected that foreign capitalists will loan money to a Gov
ernment, whose independence and existence among the na
tions of the world have not been established. Loans can
not be obtained from our own people, for the reason that
they have but little active capita), and nothing like an
amount sufficient for the purposes of government in time
of war.
Necessity then compels the issue of notes promising to
pay money, and in large q^ounts. We ar.e engaged in a
war of gigantic proportions, and our necessities and expen
ditures correspond with the magnitude of the war. Why
should not the States guarantee the payment of the debt
thus incurred in their behalf?
The States by their secession from the United States in
duced the war, which is now upon us—it is a war in de
fense of t he right of secession—and the right of the States
to hold their property in peace and security. Who must
and will bear the expenses of this war, but the people of
1 he State? Tiie means must come from their pockets,
whether the debt be paid by the States, or the Confederate
Government, and whether the money for the payment of the
public debt be raised by taxation, or by duties on importa
tions, the people are and will be the payers in both cases.
If direct taxation should be resorted to by the Confederate
Government, there will be no property subject to taxation,
but that owned and possessed by the people of the States.
The Confederate Government lias no community, no people,
but the people of the States. Neither territorially, nor as a
body politic, is there any such nation or people, as the Con
federate nation. There are Confederate States, or States
confederated, and the people of each is a distinct, seperate,
sovereign community.
The Confederate Government is the agent of these Con
federate States, and is as much their government, as are
their respective State governments. The government of
the Confederate States is the government of the people of
Georgia to die extent of the powers granted, as well as
their own State government. Both are the agents of tbe
sovereign people of the State for specified purposes, and
her people are as much bound to maintain one in the legit
imate exercise of the powers granted, as the other. There
