The morning hGGr having expired, and the order OF the

And Mr.. Wise said, he hoped the House would now
drop the matter There evidently nothing between
the gentlemen requiring further explanation 1t was

no point and there nothing further between them.
He hoped the House would proceed TO the orders OF the

from the banks, what will be the next thing we shall
hcar2-"lsa Government that has been for years wag
ing war against the banks, (for that is the charge
which utterly hostile to all banking institutions to be
INDUCED by those very institutions with loan of five
millions of dollars" Gentlemen tell us if we want
only to collect five millions in gold and silver, that
are "warrng against the banks" With how much
more plausbi!ity will they speak, should the Govern
ment draw from the banks five millions of their specie
should expect TO hear the charge rung very
change from extremity of the Union TO the other
But adopt this bill and II relieves the banks-it fur
nishes the very thing which is needed as substitute
for specie These notes will find their way TO
Atlantic cities and get into the custom houses; they
will get into the far West, and go into the land Of
fees in payment for the public lands and, far from
operating injury to the bank, the effects will be
to sustain and relieve them.
But again Adopt this measure, and the Government
retains il in lis power If you resort to loan, the
Government has to go the capitalists Of the and if
not the shavers of the land; and every body knows
how the Government fares III such The mo-
holder lays down his conditions, aud the Govern
ment must up to them GO without its loan
But if you issue Government bonds in the shape of
Treasury notes of 500 each, you, MIR. Chairman, will
have objection to take them in part of your per diem
paw nor should I; and it will be just with all the
People they will gladly receive them, without inpos

case you left at the mercy of money dealers
In every view of the case, have decided prefer

and convenience. Pass this bill, and relief will be the
immediate effect-reect it, and the consequences will
be such as we all must deplore.
In the remarks which / have now submitted. have
endeavored to present the subject before the committee
in financial view alone, apart from those political to-
