Our Currency.

The question Of our currency on
tinues to excite very great interest in
this community, and while the general
feeling is n Of sympathy for that
house which has permitted itself TO is
sue 90 large al amount Of Florence
bills, and for which they have nothing
to give, there is a very strong and de
cided manifestation Of doubt, as to
whether Messrs. Cook Il Sargent are
~exerting themselves to tat extent
which the circumstan ces require, to
relieve us from our difficulties. There
is, moreover, serious apprehension, lest
. a final result, they will be unable to
make their promises good.
We, Of ourselves, know very little
Of the means of that house and we
presume that no man, outside the bank
parlor, has any knowledge Of the
amount Of this wildcat currency now
In circulation. One of the members
OF the firm, said some time ago, the
amount in circulation was about $780,
600. We may as well say, that We
think no person believed that that gen
tleman stated one half the truth.
There was then, beyond all cavil, not
less than 100000 Of Florence money
in the hands of the people and since
then, the quantity has more than doub.
lee. To say, that now, there is nearly
one half million of dollars in circulation
is not probably, very wide of thu
mark. This is generally believed ane
this fact, taken in connection with thu
statement made by Messrs Cook i
Sargent, at the time, that they wou!e
proceed Immediately and take every
possible step in order that this ire.
deemable paper might be withdrawn
from circulation, that other and better
might gradually take its place, tend.
greatly to distub the confidence here.
tofore reposed in them. We must, il
is now said, "wait for the opening Of
navigation" when all will be made
right. We cannot see how the open
ing of navigation is to effect us in this
respect beneficially. So long as the
people take this stuff as money, so long
will they get no other-it is out of the
question-good money cannot circulate
an the same v%icinity wiM it; and
whether the river is open or shut,
whether the "crops are moved" or re-
msin, If the people want good money,
they must refuse to take trash.
We hear it said that this city hs.
forwarded more flour and grain east
during the present season than ha.
any Two other towns in the state. This
IL very likely to be truth we arc the
frat wheat growing county in the
state, and have better facilities 70,
shipping but what farmer or mer
chants, other than he who issues it, hsl
seen anything for his grain, besides
these shinplasters.
Suppose this currency had beer
Withdrawn from circulation in Octo
Der last, would We not have shippe,
our -four eastl Why mott and v,
would then have received our paymen
in currency similar to that which cir
culates in Chicago, and for which CT
change can be had at p per cent.
We repeat it, We shall not see
better circulation here, until we plac'
u seal Of condemnation upon thi
currency of Messrs. Cook l. Sargen,
We must refuse it, absolute and I'm
quali6edly refuse to have, receive o
handle it; and then, and then only
shall We see a better state of things.
Daily Iowa State Democrat. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1856-1859, 1858-01-23

Il must be admitted that . close in
ves&iestiou Of our present condition Is
not calculated TO inspire confidence,
and II We would maintain . reputation
for ~solveucy it 10 time that We commen.
ced taking the preliminary steps to that
end.
Our present condition must be rem,
edied before the return OF the usual
reason Of immigration, or permanent
stacustiou may be the result.
S~hinplasters and the irredeemable
;s.ues OF banks whose location aud re-
.ponsible existence are not with GER
tsinty known to us, constitute our only
currency and every dollar Of the
amount Of our daily business trsnsac-
tons is subjected TO q direct tariff OF
not lcss than ten per cent.
Shinplasters and ~irredeemsble cur
rency must be discouraged, and the
issuers must be brought under the IN.
Auence Of public opinion, if not Of legal
action.
Will the Gazette explain what was
intended when it said that, "SHIN.
PLASTERS AND IRREDEEMABLE
CURRENCY MUST BE DISCOUR.
AGED, AND THE ISSUERS MUST
BIZ BROUGHT UNDER THE IN
FLUENCE OF PUBLIC OPINION
If NOT OF LEGAL ACTION!

The TRIAL OF 7. WARRINGTON SMITH IN

trial Of Thomas Washington Smith, of Phil

to is the sister Of the prisoner. The report
er says:
This interesting case ia drawing to q close

being placed IN the stand yesterday after

So far as her testimony has been given
che has fulfilled all the expectations tina
were founded on her beauty and Intelligence

Of susceptible materials, the eloquent an,
