water companies have their reservoirs for the supply of water,
and other companies their docks for the floating of ships.
By extending the legal tender of silver from forty to sixty
shillings, a very useful note might be issued, and float, for fifty
shillings, as the equivalent half of a Five Pound Note, which
would enable many an employer of labour to pay his workmen
snugly in silver, instead of by two's and three's in gold, for
want of the requisite quantity of silver change; and these two
separate and independent reserves could be well and fully kept
up by the Government sale and issue to the public of the
following notes, circulating at equal and par values the gold
notes with the pound sterling, and the silvet notes with the
silver shil"--

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES.
Sir,--Before proceeding with the regular course of my argu—
ments on this subject, I think it desirable to mike a few
remarks with respect to the general plan I have laid down for my
government; and, which, I consider the proper order to be
observed in pursuing the investigation in which we are engaged,
—this will at once explain why I have not, as yet, hurried iuto
the consideration of any remedial measures. •
If I were delivering a course of lectures, I should arrange
them, so as to take in succession, the different stages of the
subject ; each, respectively opening the way for the next—
naturally in order—and they would run thus :-
1 st.—A statement of the evil, as evident to all.
2nd.—An exposition of the said evil,
3rd.--The source, or cause of th
4th.—The kind of remedies cakulated to remove it; and,
sth.—The application ar.;s selection of the most approved of
those remedi.s,
By a little

ention to this plan, it will easily be seen that I

corsider this order necessary, if u

results in a systemat

way; for, a moment'
