MoEDKY EVENING, May 81, 1864.
Our correspondent Bnllionist,'' in an article
published last week, briefly stated principle
which is worth repetition and frequent considera-
ton ill is adoptedb By the Government and people
in practice. The more debt-that Is, bank curren-
cythete is in circulation, the less the public viii
be accommodated. For Instance: II man Or a
bank loans ten thousand dollars ofrea1 money, and
for any Ieafon it Is not paid at maturity the lend
er may have plans for reloaning disa11angcd; but
neither capitalist or banker will be In any danger
Of failure But II the bank or an individual Ioaus
what Is virtually borrowed from the people- that
is, bank bi]ssscaze must constantly be exercised,
and money held in reserve to meet contingent
cies. Hence the necessity Of Government taxing
the cizcu1 tion Of the banks ont Of existence. In
that case banks would loan real money. To Ger
tain extent the Demand Notes OF the Government
can be used In the Place Of coin for the RESPONSE
bllity OF the entire people cannot be questioned
and being receivable for sQ public dues, and con
se1tible into interest paying securities II bank
1ags were out Of the way from two to three hun
dred millions would be in constant use by the peo
pie Hence it is to be hoped that Congress viii
take carly measures to protect the country from
the evils, already assuming fearful proportions,
that are sure to result from a+1initless Issue Of
debt currency By the banks.

A a from a True Union Nan.

by request we copy the lOllOwlng manly letter
from the Jacksonville Democrat:
EDIloR NATIONAL DEMoCRAT-SIR: 1t the
published proceedings of the Union meeting of
Clark county, / see my name in the list of dele
gates 20 the June Convention, at indianapolis. /
would here state 1t meets my entire disapproba-
ton to have my name placed there. have been
a Democrat all my life, and profess to be as good
a Union man as any in the country, and / I'm not
yet ready to form a political association with
those who hut a few years back were Know
Nothings, AbOlitionists, Republicans, and now
professed Union savers. The resolutions passed
at said meeting are. in substance. what | have
often heard in Fourth of July o%rations. and are,
n themselves, harmless, except the Sd resolq-
ton, which l think embraces an Abolition sen
timent.
What this country was it attained under Demo-
cratic rule; what it is now, it has received from
those opposed to Democratic principles. If the
Union is ever restored as 1t was, il will be when
the Democratic party get in power. To say that
the Democratic party is disoyal is a malicious
SANDER. The resolutions passed at the 9Th of
January Convention meet with my entire appro-
bation; they embrace the true Democratic doc
trine. Resolution I'd says "that we are unaller-
ably attached to the Constitution by which the
Union of these States was formed and established
and that a faithful observance of its principles
can alone continue the existence of the Union and
the permanent happiness of the people" The 9Th
resolution says ''that we are utterly opposed to
the twin heresies Northern sectionalism and
Southern secession as inimical To the Constitu-
ton, and that freemen, rs they value the boon of
civil liberty and the peace of the country, should
frown Indignantly upon them" Resolution 10th
says ''that we will sustain with all our energies a
war for the maintenance of the Constitution and
of the integrity of the Union under the Constitu-
ton, but we are opposed to a war for the emanci-
patton Of the negroes or the subjugation of the
Southern States" If there is anything disloyal
in these resolutions it is beyond my conprehen-
sion. And if the Democracy have not turnedout
a larger number of soldiers for the war than the
Republicans, other sections are an exception to
this, as at least six Democrats have enlisted to
one Republican. My impression is that this
Union party is made up of broken down parties OF
the past, with a few hungry Office seeking Demo
Gratis. Republicanism has already become such
a pest that like u ~piratical ship it is bound to
change its coIors 10 every sea 4, attempts to sail.

slight Difference.

The Republicans of Iowa have called a Re-
publican State Convention to nominate a Repub-
lican State ticket, to be supported by Republicans
at the ensuing fall election. Not a word of Gen.
cure do we hear from the Republicans of Indiana
against this Republican party movement in Iowa.
Judge HUeHEs and the Republican press quote
DOUGLAS upon Democrats, but all is mum when
the sentiments of the dead Seator will apply to
Republicans. We quote from the last speech of
DOUGLAS:
Whoever is not prepared to sacrifice party Or
gsnizations and platforms on the altar of his
country, does not deserve the support and coun-
teaance Of honest men.
With the Republicans it makes a good deal of
difference whose OK is gored. 1t is all right for
the Republicans of Iowa to meet in convention
and nominate a party ticket, but it is very wicked
for the Democracy Of Indiana to stand by their
perry organization upon the platform of Fidelity
TO the Constitution" If there ever was a party
organization, or rather an organization to advance
the personal interests of partisans, it is the pro-
posed "Union Party Convention" to be held in
his city on Wednesday next, called by such DIS
interested patriots as MORTON, HUGHES, JULIAN

it would seem to be inevitable that a foreign de-
mand will exist that must drain the entire specie
from the country, as the counter home demand
for it is removed by the bills of credit if they are
a legal tender; and Nhen it is all exhausted. what
will be done them
These considerations were wildly in the minds
of the convention that formed, and of the States
that adopted our present Constitution. They had
before them the then recent history of the issue of
continental and State bills of credit, and the disas-
trous results thereof to the country, and they de-
termined to prevent a fepetition of the evils. See
the subject most thoroughly discussed in I'd Story
on the Constitution, I'd edition. commencing at
sec. 1858.
Hence, the convention was not satisfied with
simply Withholding the power to emit bills from
the Federal Government; because that might not
prevent the evil, as the several States would still
possess the power to issue the obnoxious paper;
but, in the very nextsection but one of the Con-
s%titution, after that refusing powers, that to emit
bills among them, to Congress. it proceeded to
ordain that no State should semit bills of credit. -
And this action constituted a part of the entire
effort made by the convention to secure a sound
currency for the use of universal In
the letter of ROGER SHERMAN and OLIVER Ellis
WORTH, delegates in the convention from COnnec-
ticut, to the Legislature of that State, they say.
The restraint on the Legislatures of the several
States respecting emitting bills of credit, making
anything but money a tender in payment Of
debts, &C., was thought necessary as a security tc
commerce, in which the interest of foreigners, a:
well as of the citizens of different States, may be
affected" 1 Elliott's Deb, 53l.
The above considerations lead to the conclur
sion that the act of Congress, making Treasury
notes a legal tender, is not within the COnstitu-
ton of the United States.

Mr.. EDITOR: The intelligent, accomplished and
eminently patriotic Judge of the United States
Court of Claims in his speech the other evening
asserted among other things of like tenor that
"the Abolition sentiment of this country has
never ruled at any of our elections"
Uttered by a less distinguished fusionist than a
Judge with a salary of four thousand a year, l
should have charged such an assertion to brazen
mendacity, but as it is, / presume the matter
must be at least susceptible of some explanation.
Will His Honor be kind enough to inform the
public what sentiment, If not the Abolition, il
was that supported Birney in 40 and IA and
Hale and Julian in 1852?
How sadly Il is to be regretted that recreancy
to political principles breeds so much of kindred
abandonment. There is no crime against integ-
rity, political or personal, but that it must needs
be propped by a whole catalogue of accompany
ing offenses.
