Being assaulted at 0 time when theory and practice canbino to assure us that, if wehave not attained perfection In the nbsolute sense, wo Inve the best paper currency system of which the world knows, the frlenits of It have no reason to shrink from the challenged diseusston, or be under obligntion to inake an apology for giving the reayous for the faith that Is in them, Whenever tho atvoentes of a repre- sentallve paper currency propose to furnish a elreulating medium they. argue themselves and others Into the belief that thoy have a system-that will compass the re- sills they seek to accomplish, ‘Those who rise above the deserved aupollation of “ wild- eat” bankers and Intentional swindlers are generally sincere In their bellef that a pledge of the various kinds of securitles that have formed tho basis of yarlous systems of issu- ing bank currency would make thelr issues promptly and surely convertible Into coin to the extent of the natural wants of the finan- elal world, ‘This expectation is generally reallzed in what may be styled the better of the old systems; butthe best of them dit not, and do not, provide for the exacting demands of — war, pestilence, — famine, panic, and (i free bauks)’ for the results of contraction consequent upon thelr own expansion to a polut where the bubble burts. All the State banks founded on tlscellancous State bonds shriveled juto suspension, . retirement, or bankruptey during the first months of the late War, and all of them were taxed out of existenco soon after to clear the ground for our Natlonal-bank and legal-tender system, Itisnotto be truthfully denied that the In- tention of the projectors of tho greenback part of the new moniotary systein, and the ex- pectation of that portion of the public that is really Intelligent respecting public alfairs, was, that the Issue of Treasury legal-tender notes. was to be the temporary pee of the systent, considered Justifiable at the time, to meet & pressing emergency; and that the banking part. was to permanent, If its wisdom justified Its continuance, — after 0 trink of twenty years,—the thne for which the banks were chartered.
