Ho naked for the yeas and noys on tho paasago of the bill, asho dosired to rocord his voto againat it Mr, WRIGILT said the subjoct was & proper ono for logislation by Congrosa. ; Mr. CONKLING agrood with Mr., Wright, Mr. TIPTON favored tho passago of tho bill, Mr, MORRILL (Me.) favored an inquiry, but he eald ho thought the information could be ob- tainod by any ono of tho soveral standing Com- mittoes of tho Senato, and would bo much more relinblo than that obtainod by the proposed Com- mission. Tho Committes on Finance, for in- stanco, could obtain information, and the Sonato would bo botter entisfied with it, Ho did not think that mon compotant to sorve on tho Com- misgion_could be obtained without componsa- tion. Ho thoreforo moved an amendment ap- propriating 10,000 for tho oxponscs of the Com- mission. . Mr, CONKLING snid ho knew many persops who would sorve without componsation. Ho would not object' to approprinting $5,000 for tho oxponses of tho Commission, having no doubt that would bo suflicient for printing and all othor oxponsos.

Mr, OHANDLER said at tho propor time he would offer an amendmont, which ho had read for information. It provides that tho Secrotary of tho Troasury shall retiro and dostroy a dollar of legal-tonder notes for each dollar in” National Bank notes issued. Mr. CHANDLER thought the nation could ive notico that it would resumo spocie payments uly 1, 1875, or even Jan, 1, 1876, and coin could b accumuiated in tho Treasury bfi that timo which, with a loan o $100,000,000 that conld bo negotiatad, would enablo such resumption. That would bo the greatost measuro of relicf vor pro- posod for the nation. Mr, HOWE gavo notice that ho would submit an smendmont, as a substituto for that to bo roposed by Bir. Chandler, providing that the gocrohry of tho Treasury shall, onco in_ each month, soll to tho highest bidder, for United Statos notes, coupon bouds equal to 85 por cont of the additional bank circulation issued during the month proceding, which bonds shall boar intorest ot tho rato of b per cont F“ aouum, payable (uartorly, and tho principal shall be payablo at tho plonsuro of tho Governmont aftor ton yeara from dato; both principal and interest fo bo aid in gold coln, but nono of said bonds eball Do sold ¢ lous chiaa par vahuo, and tho United Btates notemrecelved in oxchiango therofor shall nover bo roissucd, but shall bo dostroyod. Mr. MORTON said ho would call the attontion of tho Sonatc to ono evil which would result from tho passago of this $200,000,000 bill. It would work n contraction of tho curroncy to tho amount of $25,000,000, beeauso the banks from which the money was to bo_taken would undor- stand that thoy would bo liable to be callad upon any doy to roturn the monoy, and thoy would not lond it, FRELINGHUYSEN enid ho thought Mr. thero was o plan which would accomplish all -that wos desired without producing any embar- ragsmont. o would say, lot tho circulation bo incronsed 326,000,000 or $50,000,000, and at tho samo timo diminish Unitod Statos notes to an equal amount. ‘Tho result would bo, that with- out incrensing the papor money, banking facili- ties would bo increased in thoso sections want fug it ; thoro would bo no withdrawal from tho Inst to givo to tho West. Tho distribution of tho increase in National Bank currency shiould bo confined to thoso Btates which havo not thoir sbaro, Agoin, thoro should bo pro- vision mado for an asgorting house, so that tho banks should have their notes returned to thom at statod times ; thus circulation would Do lacalized. 1o would not allow any one to Liavo tho boneflt of croating National Bauks un- loss such applicant produced & liconso from the Btato, or Governor thereof. This would seonro tho proper location of banks, as woll as proper mon to whom thig valuablo frauchise should bo committod. o hopod this whole subject would bo recommitted to the Financoe Commiitteo, -In oconclusiou he said ho favored tho proposition suthorizing the Sccrolary of the Tressury to s cumulato gold with a viow to specio resumption, Mr, MORTON thore had boen some fmprove- mont in tho country sirico the pauic, but that improvoment was not complete, and tho result of tho panic was folt to-day in ovory county in the coumfi'. 3y, SOLURZ rond from Tue Onicaco Trine oNg markots, and orgued that mouoy was casy in the West, and that thoro was no scaxeity of it, Mr, FERRY (Mich.) said it was not fair to judge of goneral busincss interosts by nows- pyper roports, Dusiness men, whon thoy wanted more monoy, wont to thoir accustomed places or bauks, but were not able to procure it. = Ilo had u lottor from a nm‘l;dmny in “Missourl which bad acapital of $200,000, and not nu owtstanding note, yot it conld not obtain o loan of 35,000 by the paying of 10 per cent intorost. 1lie deniod that munni’ was plonty in the Wost.
