THE UNION.

Now is this oanabe capital of the country, and not
banks of New York and few other cities. that consh
tuies the fund from which government is to borrow
Those who not familiar with the distractions OF
Political Economy, may see the truth of what we are
affirming, by rejecting the fact that II is not bank pa
per, nor bank credits in any form, gold and sill
ver Except so far specie is expoed0 that are con-
sumed by nation in the of war but labor, and
the products of labor Money, whether it be metallic
paper, is only medium for obtaining the command OF
labor and its products The loan may in the first place,
take the form of gold of paper but what is ultimately
obtained and consumed is labor and It's products. Sup
pose to be laid in kind, and loans TO be made in
kind: then should get Immediately to carry the
war, what get indirectly by means of treasury
notes and loans of specie.
We cannot believe that man of Mr. Galatians inelli-
gence and cando will fail TO admit the important differ
ence between circulating capital and circulating medium
In fact, it not from ignorance, but from oversight,
that he neglected to state it in his pamphlet But perhaps
he, of his friends may aver, that inasmuch
we cannot collect taxes in kind, or negotiate loans in
knd-that since must resort to some kind of
medium to obtain the of carrying the war-gov-
will be exposed to all the embarrassments and
the people subjected to all the difficulties, pointed out in
his pamphlet.
This is important view of the subject but we must
defer the consideration of it to another opportunity

congress knows, without its being recommended
oy The Secretary of the Treasury, that shall want
money very shortly to support army and prosecute
'he war What are they doing to contribute the sup
phes' which, they informed, will soon be wanting
they have proposed bill for creating a par stock,
when they all know that unless they grant other facl-
ties, the money cannot be obtained par Are they
about TO grant duty tea and coffee? SO far as the
signs go, they will vote il down VIII they then grant
new issue of treasury notes! If they do not, it is in
vain we fear, that they talk of raising money at par
They might as well say at once that they mean to
disgrace our arms, and will not grant the supplies.
We may raise the money at par by issuing treasury
notes, and still better terms by taxing tea and COT
fee Why should the opposition conceal its hatred to the
war under the guse OF loan which cannot be nego,
tiated?
The money will soon be wanted The treasury notes
which yet remain on hand, (say five six mons along
with the receipts of customs already for half this quar-
ter about five millions of dolars-(and the end of the
quarter perhaps five millions moe) may keep the
ury aioat for short time but with the war expenses
upon the treasury, only for short time. And if the
wings refuse other facilities, and the money cannot now
be raised at par the responsibility will fall feauy upon
them.
But such is precisely the policy which the federaiss
pursued in the war of 1912, and which threw foul and
ineaceabe blot upon their escutcheon They then vote
against the loan BILL but they out-voted; yet the
blot still remains upon them-frst for the VOTE and
ondly, for the effort out Of doors to panic and
paralyze the loans See the parallel find in the

there will be another history like it, written for poster
ty)
1t describes the opposition made in 1912 to the means
of obtaining supplies to that war.
In three pages after, the 'Olve Branch" draws the
following general picture of the opposition waged the
of 1872 and unfortunately foreshadows in its dark
colors the rabid opposition to the war of 1913:
'From the hour of the declaration OF war; steady sy-
tematca and enegeca opposition regularly organ
lied against it, The ITSELF and authors and
abettors denounced with the viruence and
intemperance.
They asserted it unholy, wicked base, perfidous,
unjust. cruel and corrupt Every that in any degree
co-opeated in gave aid to carry loaded with
execraon 1t has been recently pronounced in
daily papers be the wicked and unjust
ever waged The disregard of truth, and Of the NOR
al sense the reader which such declaration betrays
is calculated to excite the utmost astonishment"
