THE UsURT LAWs-IIunt's Merchants Maoa-
zinc, in a recent we'll digested article upon the
financial affairs of the United States after stating
two remedies which have been proposed to prevent
the banks irom ovcr-trading-o oblging them to
keep on hand certain proportion of their ohliga-
tons in specie, or torbiding the payment of inter-
est on country bank deposte@-socs to remark:
'We suggest remedy which, to our mind, is
better than either. Repeal the usury laws, and
allow free trade in money. Disguise it may
the present banking system is sustained because it
is safe, ingenious method Of investing money at
something above the ordinary rates of legal inter
est, and it is in strninG after high dividends that
these money lenders run into the practices of which
the public complain. Either allow the private
capitalist to loan his money directly and honorably
at eight, nine Or ten Per cent. per annum, or else
restrict the bank dividends to legal interest and
forbid any accumulation Of surplus profits. This
will cut the knot Of difficulty at once, and there
need lie mystery about the effect in either case"
