and suecstrfally carried out this gnat system

had endeavored to kill the system icaugura

iogly said, that some of those opposing the
HR, were too young, to onderttsad its mer

in olden times, the giant was slain by tbe

V this was the butt ilhrstrution the gen-
tletnan couhl draw in favor of his bill, be
would Hk* to have him speak again. Those
who, in 183S assisted in inaugurating this
system of Railroad:, were member* of the
legislature and not of the lobby 03 had been
asserted.
The Hon. speaker had saki that ihe Cen
tral A Georgia Railroads had rewired from
the State, a loan of $300,000. lie deuied
this and would refer ta the tat. He dsplor*
ed the enmity manifested by ths Uon. speak
er towards savannah. When ever the Htute
of Georgia was spoken of ia other lands,
Saranruh rvooired her great meed of praise
for her tnterprise, and the liberality of her
citisoos, but it was left for this Ilall to be
tbe scene of, and the Hoo. Speaker tho per
son to make an assault upon fiat, interest,
and Sav. citizens. Is is to Savannah and
Augusta that we on indebted lor tbe pres
ent system of Railroads. It has been mid
that the buiidiog of the Western A Atlantic
It. K., was equal to a subscription of $6,-
000,000 to* the Central Rood ; if this be
trne, is it cot also true of the Brunswick
Road/ They received tho same benefit*
from it. He then showed that most of the
taxes which built the State Road, came from
the cities of Augusta and Savannah. He
reviewed the argument oi tbe gentleman
from Bibb, and said that Macon was built
up by tbe Central Road, without it, and tbe
S. W. Road, Macoa could not exist, and yet
the gentleman cried out against tbe Road
in favor of the "dear, dear people.” It had
been said that competition is the life of
trade. So it is, and be welcomed it, but ic
tbe name of Justice, don't turn the power
of the State against one Road and in favor
of another. This would be indeed gross
injustice. He showed the advantage a Road
backed by the credit of the State would
have over any other. The Hon. Speaker
bad insinuated that there was a “ wheel
within a wheel’' in the action of the city of
Savannah, with regard to the Griffin Road.
Ia this statement he oniy showed his iguur-
a nee of the facts. He then examined the
claims of (he Brunswick Road, and showed
that in this cose, the State was stopped by
the word* of the Maia Trunk charter. He
thought there was merit in tbe other Roads,
and if he could be convinced that they would
not interfere with the R. R. system iu the
State, be might be willing to grunt them the
aid they asked.
The gentleman from Hancock had failed
to answer the oble argument of hi* young
from Walton—that thclSute hud not the
right to gram old on the principles of this
bill. The lion. Speaker Lad said that tho
bonds of those Co.'s would be paid by the
income of the Suite Road. This was im
possible, for the income of the Road was
already pledged to the Main Trunk. He
showed that the value of State bond* was
fluctuating, and depended as tho interest cf
the State did. upon the action of the Legis
lature He warn-d them of tha dangerous

ter from Lord Palmerston and tho Chancel
lor of the Exchequer waa published in Lon
don :
To Mr Governor and Deputy Gmern.tr of Ihe
Hank of England.
Gentlemen . Her Majesty’s Government
bate observed with great concern the sori-
ous consequences which have ensued from
the recent failure of certain join-stock
banks iu F.nnlaod ami Scotland, as well
as ot certain large mercantile firms chief
ly connected with the Ameiican trade.
The discredit and 'dulrust which liavo
resulted from these events, and the with
drawal of a large amouut of the paper
circulation authorized hy ths existing bank
acts, nil pear to to her Majesty's Government
to render it necessary for them to inform
the Bank of England that if they should
be unabloin the present emergency to meet
the demand for discounts and advances
upon approved securities without exceeding
the limits of their circulation prescribed by
the act of IS44, the Government will bo
prepared to propose to Parliament on its
meeting a bill of indemnity fir any excess
so issued.
In order to prevent this temporary relax
ation of the law being extended beyond
the actual necessities of the occasion, tier
Majesty’s Government are of opinion that
Ihe bank terms of discount should not be
reduced below their present rate.
Her Majesty's Government reserve for
future consideration the appropriation of any
profit which may arise upon issues in excess
of the statutory amount.
Her Majesty's Government arc fully irn
pressed with the importance of maintaining
the letter of tho law, even iu a timo of
considerable mercantile difficulty; and they
believe that for the removal of apprehen-
sons which have checked tho course of
monetary transactions such a measure as is
now contemplated has become necessary,
and they rely upon the discretion and pru
dence ot tho directors for confirming its
operation within the strict limits of the
existence of the case.
(Signed)
PxuiERSTorr,
G. C. Lewis.
We understand that the principal motive
for the application made by the bank di
rectors, and for the concession granted by
the government, was the enormous drain
of gold from bank by the various Scotch
banking companies who were very naurally
alarmed by the failure of the Western bank
of Scotland, ar.d tha consequent run upon
tb* other banka of that city, under the
pressure of which the City of Glasgow
bank gavp way. And the a'arm of tbe
banking companies iu all parts of Scotland
was bv no means unreasonable. Tl one
bank more han suspended at Glasgow,
which at one lime seemed bat too probable,
a severe panic wonid almost inevitably have
spread over Scotland; many of ihe holders
of one pound notes, which constitute! so
large a proportion of the currency of that
country, being ignorant and ill-informed
persons, quite unablo to form a rational
judgment upon their own value, and coii'e-
quently very liable to fall into a panic,
which once commenced would be likely to
extend to the depositors.
In sneb a case it would have been not at
all surprising to see an almost total annihi
lation of the existing currency of Scotland,
which must have been replaced by coin
before the ordinary business of the country
could go on. Hence the demand, with
which, under existing circumstances, and,
considering the purpose for which the gold
wa* required, tho directors of the Bank of
Bngland could not refuse to comply ; and
hence also the suspension ot the stringent
provisions of the act of lel4, hy the Gov-
rnment.
It seems exceedingly probable, however,
that, as in 1917, the proposed i-sueof notes
beyond the specified amount will never take
place. There are already, symptom* of a
relaxation of that extreme pressure which
has latterly p evaded; the panic at Glasgow
scetns to have entirely subsided ; the tear*'
which it created e-sewliere will necessanfy
subside with it, ami probably, in the course
i f a lew days, a large portion of the gold
which has boon sent, or i* now on ns way
to Scotland, will find its way hack to the
vaults of England.
