THE cURRENcY QUESTION.


In the year 1892, Gen. Jackson, then Presi-
dent of the United States came forward with
proposal to furnish the country with ssBetter
Currency" and to improve the condition of the
domestic exchanges. proposition was en-
iirely voluntary and grstuitous on his part. There
was nothing in the state of the currency or the ex-
changes, at that time, that seemed to demand any
Improvement. We possessed, in addition to the
ocal currencies, at that Iine in perfectly sound
condition, general or federal currency Of uniform
value throughout the United States, and collec-
tons were made at the EXTREMIST points of the
Union, at an expense Of from one TO one and
hafper cent.
Gen. jackson and his party, however, having
determined to make the management of the inan-
ces, and the custody of the public money, part
of their system Of rewards and punishments. and
in his way to convert the treasure of the nation,
or at least its custody and use, into "spols Of VIC
tory :" resolved to overturn the system then estab>
Iished, and to introduce new one more subselV.
lent TO their particular ends.
To gloss over the selfish scheme with some
appearance of patriotism and public spirit, they
proclaimed their intention, Of providing "Safer
CUSTODY for the public funds, "Better Cunen-
cy" for the people, and an "Improved System of
Exchanges for the Merchants. These were the
tlfee DdltS ueiu tue people 10 SeCOUu
their scheme. By playing dexterously upon GER
tain long established prejudices, by appeals 10 the
private interest, supposed private interest of cap.
itaIists and brokers, and by all the arts which, as
political demagogues, they know so we'll how to
use. thy easily enlisted majority of the people
in theirschemes. and they made the first decisive
stroke Owards the practical introduction of their
new sytem, by a removal of the deposits in 1888
Since then, we have had in regular succession

A. The Severe Money Pressure, and General

g How CAN you AS A NULLIFIER SUPPORT
GEN. HARRrsoN l''-We have been asked this
question more than once. We will now answer
iI-Because we agree with him in more of his 20.
litical doctrines and acts, than we do with his OPP
ponents, viz I'VE agree with hun, that The adj
minisiraiion Of the federal government has become
deporably corrupt, and that "retrenchment and
reform" are loudly called for-lhat ofFicehod
should not be allowed TO interfere with the freedom
Of elections. That the acts and the conduct of
the abolilioDists are =" weak. presumptuous and
unconstitutional. THAT the Tariff compromise
act ought to be adhered to, and that works Of in
te.nal improvements ought TO be left to the states
individually. That the President OF the u S.
should not be elected for more than one term
We agree with him 10 other matters, and there are
some points on which we differ from him, but on
these latter points we equally differ from his OPP
ponent. Mr.. Van Buren,. Indeed we are not now
sensible that we agree in a solitary political ocI or
principle with Mr. Van Buren,; and If we did, we
have so little confidence in hrs integriiy, that We
would expect to be betrayed by him, if il ever be-
came his interest to do so. But if we had no 9th.
or objections 10 Mr.. Van Buren,, his advocacy Of
the Sub~Treasury scheme, and Poinsett's Stand

Purse Of the NahOn.) and his approval Of Negro

We viii briefly state, some of the objections
which nave been urged against that bill by the

and the baser for the peoples" and consequently
