IN carrying out these principles so far as regards
public receipts and payments Five and ten dollar
pieces are quite as convenient as FIVE and ten dollar
notes. When the sums are of larger amount, re-
course may be had to weighing. Any gentleman
who will try how much American gold he can hold
in canvass bag in his right hand, will be convinced
that will not be necessary for him to take wheel
barrow along when he goes to pay eustom.housc
dues. tf- s.
But this is not all. Whatever system we adopt,
whether United States Bank, pet bank, or indepen-
dent treasury, treasury drafts must be used. Under
constitutional system, the most rigid hard-money
man could not with reason object 10 their use, for
they would never be issued except dollar for dollar
against specie in some public depository. They
would differ widely from bank notes. which are mere
representatives of bank credit or evidences of debt
due by the banks. @
Take an example Of the workings of these drafts:
Drafts on the treasury office at New York may be
issued to the persons IN public employ at Washing
ton These drafts, being in the centre Of trade will
not be below par at the place Of ISSUE They will
either directly or indirectly find their way into the
hands Of the traders in Washington, who will trans
fer them, in the way Of payment for purchases, to
the merchants of Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New
York. The merchants will give them to the collec-
tors in payment Of duties. And thus large portion
of the public receipts and payments will be effected
by the Representatives dollar for dollar, Of specie
actually in deposite, in some treasury Office
Not few Of these drafts viii find their way into
the vaults Of the banks, and will prove even more
convenient than specie itself in the payment ofbank
balances
By the various operations Of the system, tn,
amount Of specie actually in circulation will be in
creased-say some ten or twenty millions, in addf
ton TO the amount deposited in the treasury Offices
and rendered active by means Of treasury drafts
This increase Of our specie fund must prove bene6
oia as well to the banks as to the government snc

in the country, increases the fund out Of which tn,
