S od frCe DSOS The premium on gold bas disappeared two wecks before resumption, and aubstantially dis- appeared two montls tefore that, This was belter, and sccompanied with less shock to business, than he bad st one time faared wonld be the case. But the President has been a CONSTART AND UNWAVERING SUI'PORTER of the Reaumption law auil ail enactinents look- e W its complete fulfillment. It will be re- membered that eeveral montbs before the Cin- ¢ionati Preaidential Conventlon, at a time when the Resumption law was meetiug with active apposition l1om nearls Vestern Democrats of Republicans, he was ption under the law, Dlied, there s & guicker way to bring It about,” And to this view he ! dily sdhiered through ail the yarying Dhas Nor of public optnlon o the lub{teh does he now regret his course, or helieve that the country would have been better off had ho tietd upposite views and given them official ex- pression. pearance of the gold erriug to the i premlum, the Presfdent sald that he understood that the “prectous metal' was coming iuto genetal circulation 1o sll the hr#n teade centres, He thought it would circulate first in tho cities, and presently 1t wonld come out of dark curners snd old stockingd {n the rural districts, This was tu *Inflate the currency* In {rue money, sbout which fnflation nobudy couldl complain, Inueed, he thought a malority of ail classes were now of the opinton that gold inflation was o zood thing. The diflicuity was that so many Intellgent men did wot believe 1t could he brought sbout. But hicre It was upon us, which wus pretty good evidence that the so-called * ex- periment ' WAS A SCCCE3S. fle it not, howeyer, uuticivate that gold would come into circulation with rush, It one may use the terin, He thought that ot first the tenilency with tho mnjumfl would be 1o squeeze the wold a little tighter than paper.—that Is, a Turmer witha 820 guld-piece and a 820 bill wonld pay vut the bill first.” But this would ouiv he for a time. As suou as Lhe novelty wore off the Dreatdent thought that Icgal-tender paper wonld he at a slizht premium, beginning in the largre cotnmercial centres and gradually extend- 11 to the rural regions. s premium wonld, of eourae, be very slight, but the President thoupht 1t would' certulnly cxist as betwecn the two currcncles. He based this con- clusion upen the fact that _ the eold premlum would be kept off b the large coin reserve of the Government, backed by the plighted faith of the Nation that resumption should not only bo g success, bus permanent - suceess, Now, continued the Prest- dent, we havo been used to paper-money for sixteen yea As u currency wo have had (ittle or nnthing else, r people are used to it. The new generation has grown into it, aad know lit- tle, from experience, of any other quality of mooey, Al agree that it la TIE BEST PATER CUR| T we have ever had. 1 suppose, the Presl- dent, thst nobody will dispute that, be Le fufta- tiunist, or contractionist, or what oot. Counter- {eit detectors and all publicatious for discovery of spurious mouey have been done away with., A man does uot bave to subscribe to 8 counterfeit detector publication, with a long roll of States and a longer roll of banks, 10 tell whether tha money be happens to have fs good, Lad, or indifferent. Bo far from look- ng at a detector or cousulting a neighbor, he bardly looks at the money, He knows it {s good from one end of the land to the other, that counterfeits are extrewely rare, and that a Nautional broken-bank bitlgfs” juat ms good as thouch the bank was not broken. Tho holder i nbaolutely secured agalost loss. Hnving be- cowmé accastomed Lo the currency, the Vresident thought pooule would be slow to part with it for gold, merely for tha pleasure of exchange, when the gold was inuch more bulky and fncun- venient. For these reasons, and 10 facihitate commercial-transactions, and for the couven- fence to travelers, the President thouglit paper would soon bo at s slight premium over gold. Neferring to the contemplatell combined assault ot the Greeobackers and & poriion of the, Democracy upon the Natloual banks, the Presldeut said'he : DID NOT BELIEVE IT WOULD SUCOEED. We bave to bave banks, Al would ackoovledge thut. They were ueccssary to a condiiion of high civiiization. While the Nativnal-bsnking system had (ts defects, what banking s wid vot?
