This is the ground upon which' I .desii'e,to take issue and to ?de- monstrate the immense superiority of. our existing currency over anY►that could; ;possibly be produced undei a system -such as is embraced in Mr. Rose'a Bi1l or in any modification of it' in which the radical principle is retain- ed. Theoritically, the two cliscriptions of e rreucy stand in this way. The first, (oixi• present currency,) owes its value to a presumed immediate convert- ibility into gold on demand, And its volume is necessarily, lirnit,ecl to the amount of specie held by e thBanks, supplemented by the value of instantly ,1 Conve•tiible Commodities passing from hand &J. -hand in course of trade within the country, or in transit to foreign. markets. It is, in short the tangible representative of • the floating capital, as distieguiahed from the fixed or i»n moveable capital - of the country, white the . other, or proposed Government Currency would' be the representation cf the latter description of capital, or to.. speak more accurately, the one is based upon evidences of Capital -and the other upon evidences' of .Debt. and there e1.- i tjust the s s e same difference btiuween the two conditions, represented by the German words, "Sole" and "Rebell," or owing and having. The r, b effects of the two conditions 'are clearly repre- sented in the relative characters, • and values of the currencies of the United States: and Canada. There is no need to go into theoretical disquisitions about them, here we have the whole case in nutshell before its, American Legal Tenders or National. Bank Notes, se- cured by' pledge of Government De- bentures, and - worth about seventy cents in gold, while our Canada Bank Notes are worth -what they pretend to be,;. dollar for dollar in gold, on de- mand, e-rn ncd, and even after oue of our Banks is forced to suspend payment the notes are worth more than their face €v4lue in American Silver Coin. That a similar effect would be - produced in Ca:lacla by a resort to a similar change in the fundamental character. , of our currency, no reasonable man can hesi= t bte to a lnit, The uncontrovertible facts The Duke of Cleveland nno ' ed an amendment autherizing grants . o -Cath- olics and Presbyterians. :After a long debate the House divided, and tl e am- endment was lost by a vote of 113 to 1- „,.
