The Banks and the Currency.

I'm a matter so vitality affecting their in.
terests. the people of Tennessee have right
to demand. and they owe it 10 themselves to
insist, that the advocates of an exclusively
metallic currency shall present the issue dis
tinctly clearly and unequivocally.so that there
may be no mistake whatever made by a single
voter as to their intentions. Are all banks
30 be dispensed with, and do the advocates IF
a hard money currency propose. by specific
legislation at the next session of the LegisIa-
ture, to provide for such currency, and to
prohibit and exclude from circulation in the
State every species of paper currency? 1t
has been suggested by some, that the Issue
viii be presented, and the canvass conducted
by the hard money leaders, in such manner
as to secure. if possible the cooperation and
influence of the immediate friends of the
Bank of Tennessee. 1t Is a long time before
the charter of that institution will expire
If its influence could be united with that of
the metallic currency advocates in prevent
ing the re-charter of the Union and Planters
Banks, it would be a happy, though an incon-
gruous, combination, so tar as the object had
that those friends of the Bank of Tennessee
who desire TO see il continued, with large
increase of capital, might possibly be induced
to unite with the hard money advocates in
preventing renewal Of the charters of the
Union aud Planters Banks, under the hope
and expectation that when that obj ct shall
be accomplished the necessity of increasing
the capital of the Bank Of Tennessee and the
inexpediency and impracticability of return
ing to a currency exclusively metallic, will
both become so apparent, that the capital
of the Bank ,riH be increased, and the hard
money project abandoned. How much
weight, If any. these suggestions as to the
views and future policy of the hard money
leadars are entitled to, we are unable to say.
But this much is certain,-that the best in
terests Of the whole people OF the State i'm
peratively, call for fair, clear honest issue
between an ercIusiUely metallic currency on the
one hand. and mixed currency of specie
and paper-such as the State has grown and
prospered under,ever since it was State
on the other. 1t is TO be hoped, therefore,
that the Democratic State Convention which
assemble in March next will present the
issue in language so clear and precise that
every man who casts his vote with view to
the currency question will understand what
he is about
