From Buenoa Ayres.-The schr. Pc
ton, capt. Grice, has brought advices
and papers to the Sd of May. Capt. G..
also brought dispatches for government.
Letters from Santiago, to the 5th April,
had reached Buenos Ayres. The U.
frigate Macedonian, Capt. Downes, sailed
from Valparaiso on the Sd, for Coquimbo.
The expedition for Lima was still con-
templated, but made slow progress for
want of funds gen. San Martin was dali
ly expected at the capital of Chill, and
it was hoped his presence would add
spirit to the efforts making for this en-
tcrprisc.
A treaty or armist;ce had been con-
cluded on the 10th April between the go
vcrnment of BueDos Ayrcs and the agent
appointed by the people of Santa Fe, and
gen. Artigas--the preliminaries to be
settled on the 10th of May, which it
was supposed would lead to a general
peace between the provinces lately at
variance. The troops had returned to
Buenos Ayres. The new constitution
was printing and would be published
in few days. The acting director had
resigned, and it was supposed would be

remote. The estate that is purchased
to-day, and reckoned good bargain,
may, by the banks limiting its discounts,
or Withdrawing its notes from circula-
tion, be rendered, in very short time,
not worth half the sum paid for it; and,
on the contrary, if the directors were
more liberal in granting discounts, and
increased the number of their notes III
circulation, either by lending to the state
or to individuals, the estate may speedl-
ly become worth double the money that
is, worth double. the paper it had been
sold for. This artificial and unnatural
ystem, renders the money paiue of all
the property in the empire dependent
on the views and opinions, the whims
and caprices Of t4ventYjour individuals
1t is their fiat alone which makes one
transaction good and another bad. They
hold the scale Of value, and change its
graduation as they Judge proper.
+" Nothing but rendering bank notes
exchangeable for cash or bullion, can
possibly restore the currency to sound
state. Every other scheme for the ac-
complishment of this most desired OBJ
ject, will be found completely delusive
and Intellectual
Whatever may be the nature Of the
circulating medium of any country,
whether gold, copper, leather, salt, cou-
ries, or paper, and however destitute 1t
may be of intrinsic value, it is yet pos
sible, by sufficiently limiting its quantity,
to raise its value in exchange to any
conceivable extent"
Thus, sir, the arguments are, that il
we will diminish the prices of our COM
moditics, we must diminish the issue OF
paper; and to raise them, and produce
an artificial and ruinous value, we have
only to increase the issue of paper; the
remedy against any such abuse from
banks, is that they shah all be constraln-
ed always to be liable to make all their
payments, when required, in specie

ON MONEY AND PAPER CURRENCY.
The last number of the Edinburgh
Review, No. 81, for Dec. 1918, has 80
pages on the subject of paper currency,
at this time peculiarly interesting to our
community, harassed as we are with
want OF money, and speculative as we are
in bank paper and bank loans. l hope,
by this notice, to callthe attention of our
wise men to the reading and study ofthe
subject. The whole reasoning there Gas
the concluding paragraph shows refers
all the rise and fall of our property, and
the scarcity or access of money to the
rise and fall of our bank issues. sub
Join the following extract, in hopes that
it may awaken the attention of our nume-
rous bank directors to further inquiring
into the subject.
While it is in the power Of the dr.
rectors of the Bank of England to in
crease or diminish the currency of the
country at their pleasure, no person can
form any probable estimate of the value
ct his property at any period buta little

A gentleman of intelligence who has
made the subject of manufactures par
ticular study, has lately given US the fol-
lowing statement, which may be regard
ed as an interesting demonstration that
manufactures can well be supported in
our country. He states that in the town
of Waltham, Massachusetts,, there are
500 people employed in the manufacture
of cotton cloth. of whom IA are men, and
the remainder women and Children
That they spin 100000 pounds of cot
ton, which makes l,25o,0oO yards of
cloth, worth IS cents per yard. Adj
hitting the cotton to cost 8 cents per Id.
would leave S25l,655 to support the
establishment. From this ouriniormant
draws the conclusion that these 300 peo-
pie earn as much as could be produced
by 5000 negroes in the raising Of cotton.
The subject is well worthy the inyesti-
cation Of those who have access 70 pro-
per Information.
