TUE DARIEN BRIP-OANAL, The Executive Conunil submitted the follow- 1og, which eamo from the Boston Board of Trade: -WWianeas, The ports of {ho Unitcd States arents }itadvantagia witis thedo of Europe in their conmuni- Jition with mauy porta of ths world beyopd tho Lquator, nnd an’ fuler-occanic ecnal through tho Tathmus'of Darlon will Lring tho Atlantio ports of tho Untled Btatos ju closer connction with {liose of the Pacific Ocern (han are thoso of Europe, oven with the ‘w0 of 1o Buez Cawnd 3 therefors, Ltesoited, 'That the Nuticnul Board of Trade heroby .rocogulzes tho grest commercind aud national impor- itance of tho Darlen Caun, a8 surveyed and projected | \by Commander Golfridge, of the United Stutes Navy, d cominond this grent. enlerprisa 1o the fuvorable meldoration of iy people of tio United Bintes. TIROFOATION TO MEET IN THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. . ir, Stono, of Wilmington, offored tho folloy- ing, which was roferred Lo the Exeoutive Coun- cily Resolted, That hereafter the annusl meetings of Burdt sl bo held in tho Clty of ‘{:'nmfig:’u%:%."&: i tho mquth of Junuary, Nr. Doro-snid if tho Board was to exorcive any intluence on Congress it should moet by the middle of Docember, Mr. Stono modifled Lis resolution accordingly. 8ir, Hoffman suggested that thoy moet in Bal- timore on the second Tuesdoy of Decembor sinco they would be noar Congress,and, if neces- sary, could go over and see thom, Tuled out of order. z THE BUNIECT OF FINANCE was talken up, and Mr, Nouvso, of Boston, said e would reply to some of the'romarks mado tho day boforo. It was a common fallacy to talk of dobtor oniZ oroditor country, and tho thought that gold must always flow from debtor to croditor. It was o mistake, America had always been a dobtor country in relation to Europe. No mat- ter how the,balauce of trade stood, gold flowed bore. Thatwas regulated by exchange. In o fow weoks, whilo gold foll lower than tho prices of commodities ghowed, it bad como in from England by the million, s result due to tho panic. To use the low rates of exchange, Euro- ppenus sont ovor their guld to buy it, aud thus started our shipmenis of grain. Thero, wos thus no necesssary connection botween the course of exchange and balance of exports and imports. Bince 1564 muoh of our eoxports bad beon sent abroad in bonds, and might con- tinue to be if confidence continued thers. Two things only were nccewsary,—a feoling of se- curity in Europe and tho prompt paymont of intercst, Our only thought shonld be, could we profitably employ that money. o farna it hnd beon done, it lad been an ndvnatage to the couutry, not merely from the use of the money but the developuont of tho country. Even hasty dovelopmonts might in thoe long run bo good. Btill, tho aggiogate of that debt was frightful, und the ipterest was £160,000,000 in gold, Look- ing at the future, all so-called creditor countrics hied been pub on ceution a8 to what american Eccuritics thoy ehould buy. Many now reilroads were in default of intorest. Horvce even the best new entorprises would horeafter bo closely sorutivized, So it was to bo expected, and even hoped, that all future loang sbould bo of the best chgracter. Ouly such couid be negotisted tor yents, aud all such for good cotorprises tho hotter. Lt gave us the use of foreign capital whon manufactures demanded curown, It was a C{M’Dflt to tho country whon foreign capilal could be used advautagoously. Mr. Smith had n}mken of Englsnd ns o debtor country nt tho cloue of tho Nupoloonio wars; but England came out of ibow with her adtive capital _incroased fully 50 per cent, bosides doveloping hor industries as nover before, Her menufacuuring stridos_to progross tock their spring thon, Sho Lad gainod in wealth, and cnme out & croditor nation, atter X‘uyu\g all tho ~vast contivontal subsidics. I people might be proud of that illustration of the pover of eacrgy. Tho trade and commorco of England sustained hor against almost over- whélming forco. It was o losson for us to sce that that power of directiug our commoerce, eto,, was 80 usod a8 to advance our gront intorests. Wo wore of the same stool, if not imEruvod. Our climate soomed to assimilato to thoe highest in allthings,—in tho Baxonstock and short-horned cattlo. liven tho short Surat cotton brought horo becama & good staple. Everything here doveloped toward the higher, They shiould look high, and notbing which was high but what was true. In business rolations they wented a truo currency—a dollar moaning a dollar, The Isracl- ites Lad worshippod tho golden calf, and ovon a brazen sorpont, +bnt “thoy mover bowed down nnd worshipped & paper calf, The Prosidont had spolon of the one effort mado toward resumption by the way of con- traction. It had been presouted in an excellout mper, and Congress aushorized the polloy, but n 1806-"7 the act requiring the rotiring of tho compound-interest notes was simultaneous with this rotiring of groenbacks, Iu & yoar 155,000,000 greenbncks and some certificates wora retired irom that currency allowed to be hold iu bank reserves; a0 it was o sudden and yloleut contraction of noerly 200,000,000 in all, T'ho offoct was a sovere stringency, rostricting bouk Jonns, Just then was an opportunity for o statosman to Lavo seen the emergonoy, Iad ho Lknown of the sutumn movemont of the orops, Lo could havo told Congross of his purfnsnm suspond contraction till spring. If 80 Congresd would not have acted nor filn country complained. It was the idea of contraction which hurt ; honeo the wholo polioy of contrao- tion by law waa arrestod in PBGE. Under the peoulinr curroncy of our country, and the National Bank systom, a powor of contraction bag sprung up which bad niot boon ¢: utomplated by CD“%:M' That pdwor lay in tho tact that svory Notional Biank nato rested on United Btatea bonds, It becamo, fu times of pavio, tho roadiost scourlty to luy usido, Ho, among all tho [mn)tlu, it was noticed that they recently had heir groonbucks and bank notes, Bofore that panle, thero was an enormons Loarding of cur~ tenoy I tho Houth and Weet, wharo there woro no gaviugs banke, Undor such ciroumstances, thoy alwsys Lad thelr inonoy. Two or thioo yoars ago he had ostimated that of the smount rocoived for the cotton orops, sad had found that about iwo hundre RIBUN : MONDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1873. 3 —— e aillions of gold values could not bo accounted for ax6pt on the prosumption that it was hoard- ti. o submittod tho figuros to s New Yorl {rionn, who spoko of it ta a railrond oporator ab tho Boutu, whio gave full confirmation of tho amount thus ta[d away, and_from othor sources that fack wAs COMrmod, That went on from 1806 to 1879, thouia {ust aftor the war mauy small honrds wore in gU., which wora graduslly converted Into ourroncy, ‘ugh many millions in Euld wora still thero, Thus cally 200,000,000 bad boen laid up in the South out’ of rench of tho panfe. That ncoonnted for tha stringeucy of tho Inst two years, When tho panie como _thore _was n furthor _withdwal of from §60,000,000 ta &100,000,000. But thora was always somo_flontin Imnkot monoy. If in 1800 it was 23 hond, Lot would mako £50,000,000 now. ~Probably about $100,000,000 wero roquired for this datly uge, That was not withdrawn, but it was out- sids of monoy contron, Tho bank veserves amounted to §100,000,000, Xt was scarcoly nc- tlve, but was a guard for What wna so, It conld Do reduced ouly when the circulalion was ro- ducod, Honce for two years {ho country had dono businoas on an active ourrency of loss than 400,000,000, leaving out doposits, aud thata +| depreciated ourroncy, Witha epccio currenoy, thoy would not need so much, Tho curroncy was limited by law and cotild bo exponded by Congross only, Itcould not bo supplemented l){ gold so long as it was not rogardoed as money. "It our curremcy wos of o spacla standard, wo would be at o par with the rest of the world. Gold flowed whore it was most wanted, regard- Toss of hulanoos of trado, \hen gold woa so cheap hero that it could bo exported choaper than wheat and coro, it would be oxported. ~1f fold was cheapost Lioro, foreignora would buy it. u uakinfi)(ar specio ourrency, wo asked for tho Inrgost liborty of trado, and froadom to dool in tho cutrenoy of the world, nud not bo tied down to n dopreolated modiuin of oxchavge. Tho practico of honrding wonld bo contiiued any way, but the gold would ho what would bo Tonrded, sineo it was loss destructiblo. But that ‘honrding mnde no difforence. 1¢ gold ws wantod Tero it would flow hero, or tho_ producis of ouy mines would bo retained here. Gold and silver bad Leen flowing abroad, sinco it was tho chenpest thing wo' bad excopt bonds. Tho promium in gold had no rolation to the prico of our commodities. Tho pricos of commgdiiies 2d fatlen [0 valug by roason of dhe panio lowor than thoy would by gradunl restmption, Iing- 1and had rocoivod fn fifteon yoars .£251,000,000 storling, and exported £188,000,000, and retained only £03,000,000, Even Englaud, then, rolainod 1o inoro gold than sufliced for the wants of her own busiuess, It accumulated till it forced down interoat to 8 per cent, and thon intorest ran up ns the gold flowod out ogain, Tho flow of gold to this conntry could not now bo arrestod until all her necessities Lad boon met by our products, 'There wore propositions for rancwed Juso, some for unHimniicd smounts. They would rivo témporary relicf and wouldho nbsorbed into usiucss, and inflation would follow, but thoy would soon disappoar, and thoy would go from brd to worse, and, if 'thoy kopt on, tho result wonld bo tho insolvoncy of buuke and commot- cial men. It was an ivovitable result, If such a catastropho ocenrred, thoy would be at specie poyments. Tho obstacle to resumption now was the immonee smount of debt overywhore, Tho announcerrent that thero would bo resump- tion at a fixed dny was a caution to gvery mnn to look out aud reduce his linbilities. Ho “roforred to tho small amount of assots to meet tho vasy struoturo of instant linbllities. As to tho fourth section of the resolutions, it was really a stop toward absorption, though it laoked lika expau- slon, 1t was slmply a sponge to tako up tho summor surplus, and nlso restrained the loaning power of the bauke. He moved to amend the third section by ndding that, aftor July, 1877, Treasury notes should not bo_n logal fonder oxcept for dues to tho United Biates, ‘When the Legal-Tender act was discussed in Con- gross in 1861-2, nearly ovory ono deprecated’ tho logal-tender clauso and defended i only uu- dor tho plen of necessity, Tho Buprome Court tool that ground only as_ its justification, It was n war power. No_such oxigency rested on us now, and if the Board recommonded it bo continued, it would induco the world to believe tho Board was doubtful of tho abulity to resume. Ho propoaed to cut the bridge and have no more Jogal-tenders aftor 1877. 1t was unnocessary to hove them, It would refaid our progressand Jnmper our credit. The problom was difiicult, thero wero dangers surrounding its solution, but all the higher the duty dovolving on Congres to take hiold of the matter with prudence and dis- cretion. Bo far as the Board lLiad any powoer to oxert an wholosome influence, it should do it. MR, JOHN C. DOBE snid thore were two sides to the question, To Dad attended tho banquet on tho preceding ovou- ing, and auked to talk on that very subject. Tho Committes had eallod sttontion to the remarks of Mr. Williams, of New Yorlk, at the Clearing- Houso mosting, and dosirod him to got zome statistics on the wattor, but for lack of timo he qul‘f:ly rond the speech itsclf. On conclusion, he said ho dosired to call particular attention to the part which showed that the amount of curroncy now in circulation was far in oxcess of tho amount in 1861,—some $160,000,000, Lie thought. It was proved 'bo)'ond o doubt that the produc- tion of tho country Liad increased in far grenter proportion than the capital which was to traug- act the business, Ar, Holton horo ivsisted on enforcing tho rule Timiting speechios, siuce they Lind Lut n lew houra loft, in order to conolude thoir deliberations,, Dir. Dore's timo was extended. Ho went ou to givo the atatistics of tho umount of grain end cattlorecoived hero rince 1857, Inview of those faots, it would requirc moro_money to move thosd vast products thon bud beon required in st yoars. Tt scemed to bim tho way to bring owii gold to the valua of paper was to stop tho demand for it. But the Governmout wus tho fiwnlest purchasor of gold, and thus kept up the lemand. As for the volume of curreucy, the country nevor had enough before the War, ' aud out bero drafts on Now York and Boston 8gured as curroncy, which was not tho caso now. = Tho amount of ourrency per capits was far leas hero than in forcigh countrics with n densor popula- tion. It was wall to Lusten slowly, and thore waa some fonndation for tho opivion that tho lurger volume of products roquired & larger volume of curronoy. MR. MEIRENER, OF NEW YORK, 8aid:-ho favorod the resolntions introduced by the Finance Committeo, The merchants of Now York were as douply Intorested in the financial problom of rosumptlon as any. Spocie pay- monts could be rosumed without any great dilli- culty by tho time sot for it by the Committee. Lcss importations, loss wante, loss oxirnvagant living, and less general recklosmucss in spoculn~ tion would nssist macorially in epoody rowump- tion and holp placo tho country on a sound finan- cial basis, It would not do to resume immedi- ately, becauso tho trado of thoe couutry was nob {;;Apnrm.l for it ; but specie payments shouid not ‘postponad forover. A'wo years of care and saving would bring them about, Bir. ‘Uoylor, of Cincinnuti, said he was in favor of tho roport,but heshouldvote for Mr. Nourso's amendmonts, nob secing why n ' groouback should bo a jognl-tendor after specia’ payment was rosumod. The Prosident was mistakon in suying that Bank of Evglund notos were a Jogal- tender, Tho Prosidont insistod he was correct, Mr, Toylor persisted in his_opinion. He did not think the cortificates would To mion good, but still thoy might help the banks. Thore way nosuch thing as elsticity in currency, and nover could be, cro wan simply un elasticity in loans, Tho defack now was the banks” had loaned too much through the summer. The only approach to an_ elastic cur- renoy was in England, when the Bank was allowed to issus a foew more motos. "T'he mero doclaration of an intention to resume would have a most oxcollent offect. 1o be- lioved contractlon was necessary, but wanted it to como direct, 80 ovory man would know what it would bo. Ho wanted no indircot contraction through the Oustom-House, Ilouce he had of- fored an nmondmont to contract at the rate of £2,000,000 a manth, He also wanted the Gov- +ernmont to go out of tho banking-businoss, and quit that manutacture of machine-mado money, whioh was attended with 80 mouy chancea of fraud and possibilities of. error. “The country never would have confldence in any man to take care of this_paper monoy, A dishonest Bocrotary could osrry overy elcotion if he 8o ploasod,” Tho sole function of Government woa to coin gold and silver. 1lo had also offered an smendwent autharizing o freo-bank- ing low, which poople could ayail themselves of -if they wanted, Hoalso had another amond- ‘mont probibiting Natlono] Banks from paying or recolviny de{‘mm . 4o also wanted tho coin vo- colved tho Naotional Banks as intorost on their bonds Lold by them as o roserve. If this had doon done, thoro would not 8o much coln have gono out of the country. If tho Govern« ment continnad in the bunking business and ro- sumed, what & calamity it wonld be it it found itself uuablo fo contiuue paying spcole. 1la coutd not sce that thoro would” bo any saving intorent if the Natioual Banks wero abolishod, sinco the Government would have to pay inter- est on the bonds anyhow. ‘The Qovornmout, however, should mover issue to (ke bunks more than half _ thelr capitul ju notes, The Natlonal Danking wsystom conld mnot be maintained with spocio re- sumptlon unlesa thora wan some suoh madillea~ tion, The Nationnl Banke wero, Lo bolioved, unmerolfully texed at prosont, AN INPORTANT MATTER, Mr. John Gano ssld there had beon no time when tho aotion of the Board on fluancial mat- fors was ns_important as now ; honeo ho pro- posod that aftor discusslon was ovor tho Board adjourn till January or February, and then dl- gest somathing worthy, of tho donsideration of Congress, 1o moved, therefore, that no nction bo taken ou the subjoct, but it bo Iald over for conaidoration at an adjonrned mooting.

Mr, Wright, of Chiicago, wanted to know if new subjects could come bofore the adjourned mcullu&. Lhio Chair replied in tho affirmative, Mr, Hoffman, of Philadolplia, moved, a8 an amondusent to M, Gauo's resalution, that whon tho Board ndjoutn it adjourn to moot in Balti- mova on tho third Tuesday in Tanuary. Mr. Bmith, of Milwnukee, thought & good donl of valuable time was boiug wasted on noth- ing. . IMr. Wright said Chicago would bo happy to accommodate the adjourned mecting, Mir. Smith, of Milwaukeo, moved that furthor considoration of tho subject of fluance bo post- poied until tho adjourncd meoting. "Tho motion was agreod ta. Mr, Smith also moved that, when the Bonrd adjourned, it be to the third Tuesdny in Janunry Mr. Gano again offered his resolution in'a slightly moditled form, loaving out all referonco to trausportation and fnance. Nr, Nnzro would have proforred an earlior day, if thoir_action was to have any offect on Congress. _He hoped thoy would adjourn not later than Dac. 16th, and ho bolisved they should meaet in some _place nob as near Washington ns Daltimoro, He moved tho placo be Olncinnati instead of Baltimore, on Decomber 16th. Mr. Gano smd on canvassing the membors thera seomed to bo o rMforenca for Baltimore, As to iho time, the first month of the sossions of o new Cougroes, - amounted to nothing and business wns not fuirly in roadiness ~until Jnu\lnrfi'.

The main trouble with all of them was they wero up too Iato th night boforo, If they conld go ta churoh Sunduy, aud stoy hore till Tuesdsy, thoy could settle up tho matter. Mr. Grosvenor, of Bt, Louis, thought it was not worth while to talk sbout the place to nd- 2Dnrn to any longer. Tho delegatcs wore lenv- g for bome rapidly, nud the represcutation would be very small on Mondey morning. Then the questions to boe disoussed were of grave sm- portance. aud it would not bo decont for a body like tho Nationnl Board of Trado to dispore of thom without propor cousidoration. He thore- fora favored an adjowrned sossion. Mr. Burwell, of Now Orlean, said thore would bo no attondnuco from tho South at tho meot~ ing.

Mr. 8aud accoptod Mr. Nnzro's Inst modifica~ tion as to the time of holdiug the adjomned mooung. Mr. Strapahan thought nothing could be done with Congress beforo the summor, at lonst.

Mr, Fairbauk offered tho following amond- mont to tho substitute: Resolved, That wo do ot approve of spoclal leglela~ tlon, cither Btato or Foderal, Axiug tho rates of freight upon railroads, Mr. Holton would not accopt this, and went on to oxplain bis own eubstitute. Tho question was, should the remedy como from Congress or tho Btatos ? The roport contemplated Congres- sional action, and thorefore he offered his sub- stitute, ) 1N FAVOR OF CONGBESSIONAL CONTROL. Mr. Wotherill did not like the substitute, and bolieved o great advance bad boen mada if they, 88 morchants, affirmod their belicf that Stale Legislatures had failod to do thoir duty, and that thoy must look for a remedy to & higher sourco. Ho favored Congréasional contral, for Btate Lo islatures cold give no remody, controlled by railronds as thoy wore at presont, If tho ontive powor was placed in tho Buto Logislaturo, it Wan an invitation to Jobbylsm and corruption. Let them say to railrond corporations that thoy would go to Gongress to check them. 2Mr. How, of Chicngo, said all the Committco aflirmed was tho right of Congrosa to rogulate inter-State commerco ; whether Congress could enforca it, depended on othor mattors. I, ALE, OF BT, LOUIS, snid Mr. Wetlorill's specch had convinced him that he should voto for Mr. Holton’s substitute. 1f Congress was askod to intorfere with tho railway monagoment of the country, it would not Do long before it would bo asked to interfere in othor p{lvum matters, and contralization would 'bo sn accomplished fact. A4 an American citizon, loving freodom, ho was opposed, to contralization, and would do all ho could to defeat the offorts ‘oing mado to attain ik, Thoro was no nocessity to aslk the General Government to interfore in local matters. 'Chat waa for tho State Govern- ments. Tho National Govornment could be properly called on when the cltizen becamo in- volved in diflieulty under & foreign flag, but in mattors of dificulty between citizons the Stato Govornments were competent to logislate. e ‘was opposed to placing tho grand railway system of tho country under national police urvoillance, aud, for that reason, would vote for tho sub- stitnte of the goutleman from Milwaukee. IR, DUBWELL 8nid it way easy {0 oo some days ago that this difficulty would como up. The proposition of the Commitieo was & judicinl, a politicsl one. and it would not strongthen the Board to take action on oither side. Herhould thorefore sup- port the substituto, On the whole lie would rofer to have the question reforred to the ad- roun\ed ‘meoting. o8t fo 3MR.

Congress had regulated com- morco on tho rivers and lakes, and it was bes lioved it could do it by land. 1 Congresa tried it, tho constitutionality of it could bo; sot~ tlod in the courts, The question was a vory important one, and deserved to be soitled, to provont such cases 88 those of taxes lovied on Ynunnngum crossing Now Jorsoy, &o. If tbe llinoja Railroad law weroe strictly enforcod, it would bo & sorious restriotion on commerce, MR, WOOLLEY, OF 0110, sald he found, in lookibg over tho Constitu- tion, that Congress waa empowered to rogulate the °commerce of tho country, aud could croato new channels that would Joad to {ho greater success of oommMOTC. Tho National Board hnd the right to ask Con~ gress to rogulate intor-Btato commerecs, and in carrilng outits wishes tho National Logiulature would not be nvllng uncoustitutionally. The question was, if tho Btats Legislatures passed lowa hostile to railway onterprise, should not Uongross have tho power to arrest such legis- lation ? MR, OROCRER roso to ncknowledge his obligationa to Mr Wool- oy for his explanations. They were what tho Committoe understood. ‘I'hat rosolution was vory thoroughly discussed, Ho rogrotted to say, a8 railroad man, that thero had boen such abuses in railroad matters that {t was well for tho Doard to eny that thero wes auothor sourco to which the people could look for & remedy. Ho wanted to ask what & railrond wae but a post- road, and honce within the control of Congross, Cortalnly the proposition could do no haym, and might have n salutary effect on roads like the gumdan & Amboy, though that road bad given up. M. ADLE agked Mr, Woolloy whothor, if Congroas had the pawoer, Lio thought it politio to uee it in a State wlhiore a railroad was built subject to the-power in the Htato to rovoke its oharior. Mr, Wright did not .seo the importanco of rn assortion of the power of the Genoral Uovarn- ment by tho Board, Thore seomed to boan Gpin ion that there woro no laws to clieok railread ex- tortions, wheroas, in_fact, thoy wero ninonable to all the laws rogulating common-oarviors.
