Upon the consideration of the bill. on the
DIST December. 1857, to authorize the issue
Of Treasury notes. Hon. John Letcher made
speech, and upon page of that speech, will
be found the following:
Il think that the banking system has been
carried Ia Il very ruinous extent, and have
no hesitation in saying now, that if | was
in the Legislature of my State, at this crisis,
! should 60 for divorce between bank and
State for selling every dollar of stock, that
the State of Virginia has in banking institu-
tons, anil for the collection Of rerenue IN go'd

Now. | submit to the commercial and ag-
ricultural interests of the State, what would
have been the condition of things, if John
Lescher had occupied the gubernatorial chair
a, tina, period, instead Of the present incum-
bent, entertaining the sentiments above; for
II will be recolected that all the banks, ow-
ing to the pressure upon them. were COM
PEELED To suspend specie payments: That
the revenue was payable only in specie pay
ing notes: That specie commanded a pre-
MUM of+ to per cent, and difficult in the
country to obtain at any price. And suppose
that sherifs had been required to have col
leeted the taxes in specie, can any one cal
eulate the amount of loss and distress that
such measure would have entailed upon
Virginia and her interests. 1t may be that
another crisis is before us, and it becomes
