FOR THE ENQUIRER


There are Two causes of our present
embarrassments ;. one foreign, The other
domestic.
The Isl is The change of Europe from
state Of war 10 a state Of peace. For
during She war III Europe, We were The
great maritime neuirai q we RAPED The
harvest.-Ne were The carriers for the
bellgercuis: our tonnage increased
ireighIs improved; we were admitted into
the colonial ports OF the bellIgercnis, al
other times mostly s!Iut against us. We
had access Ia other branches of trade.
and bought and sold goods NJ better
terms-Our own articles too were sold
on better terms: our flour particularly
which brought us high prices, from the
immense demands tor the fleets and ar
mics OF Europe. This state of things a.
lone poured great wealth INTO this country:
II gave rise Ia many enterpriZcs, much
speculation and much extravaganza. 81
Bnr 2dlv, this speculative spirit was
wonderfully increased by 4 state of things
which took place among ourselves.
Banks sprang up like mushrooms "OSsa
was piled upon Pelom and Pelion mpon
OsSa.' Almost every one in the towns
began to act upona fictitious capital bOr-
o"ed from the banks. Retail dealers
became wholesale the small capitalist
or 40 capitalist al all, began 10 dash out
III speculation and speuaiug-unlll the
towns got IN debt 10 the banks, and The
banks ISSUED enormous sums IN paper
money. Every article rose nomiuai,y in
price. Then, when the banks, called on
tor gold and silver Tor the purposes OF
foreign trade, called on their debtors for
payment, distress pervaded all who were
~ Dial. -. L.. a..
Money became more valuable. Oar great
staples, which would have fallen IN
consequence Oi The peace in Enrope, fell
stu lower from the demand Tor money.
All sorts of property fell ~ vAlnr, c0n,-
pared with The circulating medium. Aud
such Is nov The situation of The couniry,
that small debts, will sweep otF large
masses OF property.
But Tor tie Banks, The change OF things
in Europe would have reduced the profits
of trade aud Ihc price of our produce.
Tbs was The natural course uf events
but when 10 this is added the all-ptTVad-
l1g and artificial pressure produced by
the curtaIlmeni Of the extraysgant issues
OF The Banks, the situation of This Iaud is
almost frlghtlul We have bui one rene
dy; industry and lrugallty increased
production, d diminished consumption"
the. great virtues Of every great nation;
and the great pillars OF their prosperity
and their morals. These will in time
bring the country right. "To ,hat CON
plrXlun then lei us come" Al once. We
must realize Tie fable of Cadmus,
strike the earth, moi for soldiers, but for
something more valuable for wheat,
corn, tobacco, cotton and rice. Ship
iAese staples, and IN time capital will be
reproduced debts will he paid: and
The oouuiry will be a. rich az il ought TO
be, while It's morals will be more pure and
consistent with the genius oi our republic.
