LONDON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1855.

" The currency philosophers," as the intelligent
an d patriotic gentlemen who attended the meeting
a the London Tavern, on Wednesday evening, on
the important subjects of " War, Trade, and
M oney," are designated by the Times, have ex-
cited the fierce wrath of the bullionist organ.
The old game of ridicule has once more been
resorted to—the leviathan sneers at arguments
which it is wholly incapable of answering. It may
possibly think that the objections of the "philo-
sophers" can be as easily got rid of at the present
moment, when trade is almost suspended, and in-
dustry paralysed, as when every legitimate and
reasonable facility could be obtained on fair and
reasonable terms ; but it is ridiculous to
suppose that men of ordinary common
sense will be kept in subiiction by a few pon•
clerous sentences, and remain quiescent under very
serious privations, because the moneyocracy have
not as yet gong to the full length of their tether,
and are not as t satiated with the spoils of their
victims. Perhaps "le latter branch of the alter-
native may be regarded
as -
superfluous, for they
would scarcely be satisfied se
long as any additional
profit could be realised convenience to them-
,eives. The time may arrive Whenthat will
not
be the case ; when they themselves,
ex.
tracted the highest profits from the general dis-
tress and difficulty, may desire relaxation on their
own accounts. In anticipation of this state of
aff.tirs, the Times admits that "we may at length
be driven by sheer necessity to suspend payments,
and to beg a few year.' grace from the owners of
bank notes !"

This admission settles the question' °r
at least narrows it to a tangible issue ; for
if such be the case, why should the industrious
and working classes be bound unnecessarily to
endure the sufferings and privations incidental to
the want of a circulating medium adequa4.e to the
wants laid exigencies of the country, when the
time must come, sooner or later, if the War be
protracted, that the obvious remedy must
be adopted? What would be thought of a physician
who, seeing his patient reduced to a state
