THE BANKRUPTL.Aw.

As we frequently hear the Locos abusing The
Wings as the authors Of this Bill, it may be well
enough 10 give them short extrac, from the Mes.
sage of Mr. Van Buren, to the Special Session Of
Congress in 1888:
"ln the meantime, it is our duty to provide all
remedies against deprecated paper currency.
