It might receive ‘the public money derived from loans, from customs'and internal taxes, and disburse all these moneys to the credi- tors of the government. This would givo the moneyed | men who are stockholders in the bank an immediate pe- cuniary interest in upholding the credit of the govern- ment. Similar organizations in Poston, Philadelphia, New Orleans and other princtpa cities of the Union might be made with a less amount of capital, and in like manner become fiscal agents of the government in those cities, The Bank of Fagiand is a striking example of the combinod power of public anthority and private influence in sustaining the credit of government, We may safely prot by this example. This bank bas been the chief agent in sustaining the British govern- ment in the long and syracning” wars in which it has been . ‘The Bank of England is the fiscal agent of the British government, and, notwithstanding it is @ bank of discount, deposit aud circulation, it has thus far received and disbursed the public moneys without the loss of a doilar of the money entrusted to it. It is also weil known that our government never lost any of the money deposited in the first or second bank of the United States, They were both fiscal agents of the government. All the public™money was received and disbursed by them with fidelity ahd ugefulness to both parties. Sound and weil managed banks tend to inerease public and private it, and toextend as well as to facilitate commerce with States aud individuals, They stimulate industry, commouities are multiplied, agriculture, mining and manufactures flourish. ‘These constitute the true wealth, prosperity and greatness of the country I have no doubt that the framers of the constitution ‘contemplated a na- tional curreney adequate to the wants of the general government, and that for al national purposes it has the power to control and regulate the enrrency. Inall gov- erninent transactions it has the right not vnly to provide by jaw tor issuing the kind of currency that shail be ri ceived for taxes, custom duties and all other dues to the but also the kind of money that shall be paid to the army and navy and al) other creditors of the government. If there had been established years ago a sound national bank of $200,000,000 capital, which had been in full operation as the fiscal and financial agent of the government at the time or the breaking out of the present rebellion, what a valuable snpport it would have been in sustaining the government at the present time! The Independent Treasury law unnecessarily iso- lated the government from all the capitalists and the ac- cumulated capital of the country, At the very outset of the rebellion there was no money in the Sub Treasury, and, notwithstanding the hostility heretofore expressed. and now manifested towards State banks, the govern- ment was obliged to resort at once to the State banks in New York, Boston and Philadelphia for money to prose- cute the war. The States had fostered and ajded in build- ing up strong State institutions, while fhe general govern- ment had been vacillating and weakened by vonflicting views and opinions as to the constitutionality and policy of a national bank. The stern vecessities of war have made it it government, was true policy. A strong consolidated government would most likely have been able to avert this rebellion; but If not able to prevent it entirely it would have been much better prepared to meet and put down the traitorous ad- vocates of secession and SI rights, who bave forced upon us this unnatoral and bloody war. A sound national bank, upheld and ge agen by the combined credit of the government and rich men residing in all the States of the Union, would have been a strong bond of union be- fore the rebellion broke out, and a stl stronger support in maintaining the army and navy to put it down. The United States government has thus far estubliabed no perinanent system of national currency except that of gold andailver. Ever since the adoption of the constitu- Lion there has been a contiict of opinion among tho ablest #tatesinen of the country upon the question of a national currency. Jetferson opposed the creation of all banks; doth state and uational Alexander Hamilton proposed a national bank during the struggle for American indepen dence in 1780; but his pes oppure were not then adopted, During Washington's administration, in 1791, the first Bank of the United States was incorporated, mainly under the influence of Mr. Hamilton, which continued in opera- tion until 1611, when its charter expired. No na. tional bank was in existence during the second with Great Britain. Yhat war was carried on by loant and the issue of Treasury notes. In 1816 the second Bank of the United States was chartered, and continued in e: istence until 1836, when its charter again expired. All will remember the decided opposition of General Jackson its recharter, and the fierce struj that 1d be- twoon the friends and opponents of a United States Bank. ‘The friends of the Bank were finally beaten when Jackson was lected President in the tall of 182 ‘The friends of @ United States Bank aga{n rallied in 1540-"41, but were again defeated by the veloof John'lyler. !n 1846 the Independent Treasury law was finally passed, by which it ‘was established that the operations of the government should thereafter be carried on wholly with gold and sil- ver coin, and that the money of the government should Ubereafter be kept separate from all banks and all bank- ing transactions. Thus the law continued up to the session of the present Congress. No settled policy has as yet been established by which the government has assunied permanent control over the national currency. State banks still go on issuing circulating notes, receiving depo- sits, selling exchange and discounting bills and promissory notes, ant the Sub-Treasury law ts still unrepealed. A national currency adequate to the operations of the go: vernment in peace and war has got to be established. It seems that the present is a propitious time to enact this great inessure as @ permanent systein, and that the duty of the government, in providing an adequate national cu rency, ought not any longer vo be neglected. The govern- ment of the United States ought not to depend on State institutions for the execution of its great powers. In tho administration of the high prerogatives conferred by the } constitution this government need not depend at all on | State officers, State authorities or State Jaaws. Ite own | powers and its own meane, i! brought into active ex- ercise, are fully adequate to the ends for which gO- vernment was established. Im the long interval Tmany of (ne powers granted in the constitution not been fally exerc| ‘Dor was it necessary during peace to put them into full execution. But new, when engaged in a gigantic war—when the very existence of the go- | vernment is in such imminent peril—it is of the highest importance that it shoujd exert all these } great powers to maintain itself, preserve its | Own dignity and enforee tts own high prerogatives.

Many of our friends express sanguine hopes of immediate relief from the pas- sage of this bill, and I should be mich gratified to have their expectations fully realized. But, str, in my judg- ment, the Secretary of the Treasury must not place too much reliance upon this plan. It will not give much re- lief to the ‘Treasury for one, two or three years. It will go into operation slowly. The government having hither- W failed to provide. @ national currency, the state banks, in the older States, have orgavized, become deeply rooted and firmly established, It will take a Jong time to jant these banks.

It affects the farmer, laborer, mechanic, manufacturer, merchant, er, commission merchant, professional man and retired capi- talist.

Every person that rides upon the railroads, reads a newspaper, draws a check or sends a telegraphic message, is taxed for war,purposes, bnt I need not further enumerate tho diferent m in which everybody is taxed every day to pay the exje. of the wi This war debt is « mortgage alike on ail Produetive industry and property of republicans, demo- crats, old live whigs, conservatives and abolitionists, All these classes of persons are tai alike to pay the wir debt. Every democrat or republican who chews tobacco, drinks beer or bad whiskey in the Sixth ward of New York, pays his proportion of the war debt the same as the conservative who drinks his choice wine on the Fifth avenue, Mis war tax is already beginning to be noticed by the people; but, as the war is procragtinated and the debt increased, the burden will be more deep y felt. While we are running along at forty miles an hour under the pressure of trredeemable paper, necossarily issued and circulated to prosecute the war, the present taxation is oasily paid, and there is seeming prosperity; butt can assure gentlemen thata reckoning day will surely come. Look at the immense army in the flold, their com- missariat, supply trating, ambulance corps, sutlers, teum- sters, bangers on, igiors and assistants of all kinds, ex- tending over a line of military Operations of more than four thousand miles, and you will be impressed with two important facts:— 1. The enormous expenditures necessary to their pre- sent support and the future bounties and pensions that must be paid. 2, The number of men that are withdrawn from indus- trial porsuits, and the consequent loss of productive ip- dustfy which owght to be added to the wealth of the country. I this immense army add nothing by their labor to the wealth of the country, aud the expense of supporting such an army devolves upon those who do labor, and those who have already acquired property. Wha a mighty drain this war ig upon the productive energies and resources of the country. ‘It is indeed an exhausting ag well ag bloody war. Whether it is successful or un successful vast consequences are involved. If terminated successfully within three years, the Union ntaintained, and the government perpetuated uniler the constitution, the results to flow, from such a triumph would amply cui: penrate for all tis expenditure of blood and treasure. it it terminates unsuccessfully, the Union divided, aud the rebel government maintained, the war debt must stil be paid, But no man here’ is wise enough to predict results will follow such a calamity, lam asi almost daily, ‘Will the Union be maintained, and the national goverument perpetuated over ali the ‘States and Territories?” I cannot doubt that it will, No efforts of mite certainly shall be wanting to accomplish so desirable @ result. I caunot, however, shut my eyes to the tormidable character of the rebellion, nor to the difficulties in the way of accomplishing such a result, ‘The inherent difficulties of conquering and subduing 20 large and inteiligeut a people, extending over such a wide extent of territory as is contained in the revolted States, are very great. itis very difficu't to move and supply large armies. An advance in the enemy's country fer any considerab.e distance always involves the dilticalties of keeping the rear line open to the base o Bupplies. This has been demoustrated in the advances that have been made jn attempting to take Richmond, Even the armed occupation of a part of one of the revolted States does not make ve people in the State loyal to the goneral government, The hatred of the people in the rebellious States is deepseated aud abiding. ‘‘hoy have a separate de facto Confederate government and separate State go- Vernments, As States they revglted frum the United States government, and with theif State governments re- maiping intact and in full force. They still maintain their separate State organizations, with power to enforce their State laws. This insurrection was com- menced very diflerently from most other insurrections. Tt was not commenced by disorganized bodies of the peo- ple, but by the constituted authority of States, in their capacity of independent sovercignties, These State au- thorities had power to het sh immediately the Union sentiments of the people within their jurisdiction, and to enact as well as to enforce any new laws that might be necessary to accomplish their wicked put. . Hence the formidable character of the re- on at the outset. It wiil take a long time 4o supplant the present State organizations in the re voited States, and to institute new Union State - ments in their stead. It can only be accompl! y armed force. It will require &darge standing loyal army im the actual occupation of each State. Until Union State governinents are orgavized and pe@rmanen:ly maintained inall the Southern States you caunot hope for # lasting peace, Sir, it is proper for us to look these difficultics Square in the face. All the people in the Northern States onght to look at the formidable character of thie rebellion, and act up to the demands of the hour. It will require the active services of a united North t main. tain the integrity of the Union. It is unwise—aye. criminai—for us, while incurring a debt of ' $2,500,000 every day, to deceive ourselves as w the real situation. The business men at a distance are going on making money, *peculating, buying and gelling, almost unconscious of the dangers that surround us. Party or- ganizations are inaintained, party platforms set up and a partisan struggle constantly made for power, wholly incon. Sistent with the mighty issues involved in the present za ye in the loyal States have a common amon destiny. All are inteusely imte- deadiycontlet.

TYNG, MR. BEEZOHER, BTO., ETO. ‘The first anniversary of an association which has given iteelf the title of “The National Freedman’s Association,” ‘was held last evening at the Cooper Institute, the room Laeshent dey filled by an audience composed mostly f ladies. Dr. Tyvg prosided, aad she proceedings opened with prageh oy Row Mr. Sloane Pee Rov. Dr. Trxa said that it becaitie his duty, as Preal- dent of tho association meeting there that night—The National Freedman’s Association—to welcome the au- dience to their anniversary, He wished it to be under- stood distinctly what the character of their work was, and what kind of responsibility they had been permitted to take upon themselves. The work entrusted to them was entirely a remedial one, Their business was like the good Samaritan’s—to minister to the wants of those who wore just straggling into the opening antici; of pew life in the time to Humiah revolutions, al- ‘though they might be the instraments producing much temporary suffering, were, happily, the Parents of great pecmanest good. In revolution in ance, during the last century, on the 14th of July, 1789, one of the powers which moved the nation was the utter destruction and overturning of Bastile. more than four hundred years that cruelty had sat in the centre of the city of Paris; but in the midst of its power, the nation, starting forth to , determined upon iis overthrow. ‘The 6] operations of the Bas- freedom, having described the tile, for the purpose of drawing @ parallel between the Oppression exercised in France at that day and the position of the biack race now, proceeded to 8] of the latter. Those men who were aud crushed should rise up tothe mission of their divine appoinument. Slavery, he waa \d to say, was now no more forever. ae plauge.). The very people who loved it and were willing to die for it, had been made the instroments of destro; ing it, Thanks be to Jefferson Davis, for ono good thing Jeaat he had agcomplished , foul and rebeliious man as he was, Thanks be to Jefferson Davis and honor to Abra- bam Lincoln. (Applause.) They asked for the freed blacks nothing but the privilege of taking care ot them. selves. s U’Covnell once said in the House of Commons when anti-slavery men were morse fashionxble in the higher circless in England than now, “i would to God,” he said, after some anti-slavery opinions had been expressed *‘thai all uy poor Irish wero bluck, tor they would then get the same pity and the same consideration.” (Applause) Now be (Dr. Tyug) said that he wished all their poor blacks were whites, that they might work for their liviug, or starve and perish if they would not work. It (vas bis beliel that no men paid a beavier debt of duty to the government than those contrabands, a8 they were called; but he would not cull them go. Their labor had within the last year put about $700,000 into the Treasury of the United States; $300,000 was the whole amount of disbursements on their acevunt, and this nation acknowledged itself to have received a tribute and duty from those they choose to cail eontra- bands of $400,000 within the year past. Al that was now asked for the black men was that they may be ai- Jowett to till—that they may be allowed to work. (Ap- plause.) Yes, they asked still more—that they might be allowed to tight. “(Continued applause.) They asked that they may be aliowed,to fight for their freedom avd their country, and then It them step in and till the land they would have watered with their bivod. He claimed that as citizens of these United States, however poor and oppressed, they had that right. Dr. Tyng wou: d up his 8)eech by an eloquent appeal to the andieuce to help the negro in his hour of need. Rev. Mr. Newman, attached to one of the Methodist charches in this city, followed in an elaborate avd tow ory address, mingied with a spice of the heroics and the classics, but winding up with an appeal in behalf of the nigger. : ‘At the suggestion of Dr. Tyng, a collection was here taken up, 4 little mulatio male contraband, whom be in- troduced to the audieuce as having made bis escape from \ixie. acting as the principal cxiiector of suvecriptions. ‘Ihe amount realized appoared to be rather emal!. Rev.

Diacks wero thrown upon the North, and jt remained to be seen what Northern Christianity would do for them, for they had been talkin some on that subject. If he recollected rightly, speeches had been made within the last thirty years on the subject. (Laughter and applause.) Now God said:—'*Let me see how inuch you belleve those vhivgs which you bave beep saying.” slives were freed God was putting the responsibility on them, and he (Mr. Beecher) looked with the most carnest heed to sve what response the Christianity o1 the North was to make. He did not doubt the result, because they had to give up their own national life or t0 take care of the negroes. There were, however, a great many diffi culties—a great many obstacles, objections and hindran- ces in their way. There were a great many people who were exceoding Lire of (he must say it) “the nigger”—for that was the vernacular word—and 1) ay wished to know when they would be dono with them. Ie did not know when they would be done with them. He did not sce any prospects of it by the statistics, (Laughter.) Why, those poopie multiphed faster than the Israelites dia in Egypt, and that was a good Qoal faster than Pharoah sud huis poople liked to have them. (Laughter.) The negro was a continental fact, and they could not get over it, nor under it, nor on it, nor through it. They bad got to have him; and theonly question was, whether they wouid take bim Christianly or heathenishly—whether they would take him and treat him like a brute or like a mar. He did not undertake to rank the black man with the white at all, or to give hin: his place in soviety, They meant to apply'to bim the great principles of the Christian religton, avd their political institutions to the blacks, and then see what would come of it. Mr. Beechor having contended “that black men wonid make as ood tradesmen as white men, and that many of the former were better than the latter, concluded by asking aid for the furtherance of the association, and after a short prayer by Rev. Mr. Jones “the proceedings terminated. The report of the association. which was cirenlated among the audience, shows a small balance of funds oa hand.
