According to tho story, the Presi- dent has detormined to purchnse £1,000,- ‘000 elerling exchange (about §5,000,000), the availa of which are fo Lo placed to the credit of tho Btate and Navy De- partments in London, to be drawn against for .| the expenses of those departmonts in Europe as neceseity may require, Tho Government re- quires funds in London for the purposo stated ; but $5,000,000 seoms an extraordinarily largo sum to sond at ono time. If so much ia not noeded now, as ia quite evident, and this move- mont s only for the rolisf of the forcign ex- chango markot, why waa not tho measure adopted nome time ago, wlion thero was much gieator neod of reliof 3 3 It is furthor stated that tho President hns figvmx assurances that ho will do everything in i powor to relieve the money markot lLiofc, stating that tho §44,000,000 groonbacks resorve would e liberally drawn upon, at the rato of $8,000,000, and more it nsceasary, por weels, till curroncy should become plontiful and busincas resume its usual course. Although thero storios ropiesont tho Presidont so wingularly ot vatiance with tho position Lo was undorstood to occupy very recunug, they novertheless seem to bo credibly vouched for. They have the authority of a prominent morchant, who ob- tained the assurances roforred to at a recont in- terview with the President, and he (lho mer- chant) was olso the bearer of a lettor from Prosident Grant to a Prexident of a motropolitan bank roiterating those assurances. Washington dispatohos state that Swmtnrf‘ Richradron do- nies the truth of theso statling stories; but thon it is hawl{ possible tbst Gan.

A ] BOUTWELL ON THE CRISIS. New Yomx, Oot. 21—To-night Mr. Boutwell, ex-Becretary of the Treasury, delivered one of the * Galaxy " course of lactures, at the Chiurch of the Disciples, on *‘ Finance and tho Panic and Its Remedies.” Judge Edwards Piorropont pro- eided, and introduced the locturer, EQUALIZATION OF VALUZS, ? Of the idea of having paper currency broughi to an equality in valuo with coln, Mr. Boutwell said: “1 make a distinction between thore- resumption of specle paymont and tho equaliza~ tion of the commoroiul value of paper ourrency in tho conntry with coin, The considoration of the Iatter is more important than the actual re- sumption of specie payments, which I do not look onas gmuc-nln or desirable, It isnot practioable that the banks shall resume specio fluymenta, but the Government, I expect, will. " If the banka are required to rodeem thelr currency m legal-tonder, or spacio, practically we whall have resumed for the banks a4 well as for the coun- OAUSES OF THE ORISIS. The Atlantic cities are passing through a sovers fiuancial crinis, and I propose to deal with soms of the causes, We have a paper ourrency of more than $700,~ 000,000, It s not possible, I thivk, to esy whether that currency i in oxcoss or not. There are those who demand ooutraction as a means of resuming specio lmynwnt; and those who demand expausion, as I do, for the purposo of rellaving the country from tho presont coudi- tion of things. Tho suspeusion of speclo paymeots i ona con- sequonce of the dopreciution of the oredit of tha country, In 1809 coin bonds of the United Btates, privcipal and intereat, payable in coin bere, worth 83 ou tho hundred (or at discount of 18 or 20 per gent), bolug tho obliga~ tionw of the country, weto not -payabla in ovn, During the last four years this has been rom- ediod a8 to interest-Dearing obligations. They aro at par in this aud the chief flnancisl coun- tries of Burope. I wibh to corrcot an orror as ta their value » few mouths siuce, when the Frouch loan was pul u[mu the market, ours were offered for twenly years bouds. Tho Frouch b6 per cont bonds' wero taken in excess of the amount offered; whils ours wera subseribed for in & modorate sum, The differ- ouve was that thelr bonds were put into the Daily Tribume. 1873, - - hands of bahkors &t 80 or 84 conts on tho dollar and sold for 84 or 86 contn, whilo onrs weroe sold at 100 conts on the dollar, aud thoto was an olo- mont of apaculation in theirs whioh did not on- tor into ourd.
