Causes of the Suspension.

The suspension of specie payments
by the New York Banks was qualified
by an agreement to make further pay
ments of SO, 100000 on the last $780,
100000 loan for the purpose of enabling
the Secretary of the Treasury to meet
his January interest. In regard to the
suspension the money article of the
Times says:
The feeling resulting will be one of
great relief to the public. The arrange
ments between the Banks and the Gov.
ernment were upon a standard which
neither could maintain. While it con :
tinued it stood in the way of the adop-
ton of a financial system upon which
the war must hereafter be carried on -
There is no lack of capital in the oouu.
try. This can be brought out through
an adequate system of taxation, coupled
with Treasury notes or bonds. Con.
gress will, undoubtedly, take immedi
ate action in the matter. In period
of war, the extraordinary expenditure,
must be met by some system which
shall preserve the domestic exchanges
in something like a normal condition
The enormous sums called for, to pay
for men and supplies, in the absence of
system of taxation or Of a common
currency, had so changed the ordinary
course of capital, that the flow Of mon
ey was from the cities to the interior
instead of the contrary direction, which
is the rule. The recent payments on
account of the loan ceased to return tC
the banks, and the Specie reserves were
running down, almost in exact ratio t.
such payments. Depositors took the
alarm, and largely swelled the drain
The only course was suspension, aud ,
read adjustment of tho relations of tn,
Banks with the Government. We an.
ticipate no inconvenience, but great ad
vantage from the measure. Specie il
most abundant, and will every day be
come more plentiful, both from importa
tiOns and domestic productions. w,
do not, after day or two, perhaps, ex
peet to SEQ it at any premium. Their,
is enough for all the wants both Of oul
internal and external commerce. /
will not be long, probably, before th,
Banks will hold very nearly their usu
.Rl average for some months past.

MistellanrOns.
Suspension of Specie Payments,

The country will be surprised at the
dispatch announcing suspension of
specie payments by the New York
Banks. The necessity of the measure
will not generally be perceived by the
"naked eye." But the matter is sus-
ceptible of elucidation. AS yet there
has been little demand for specie. For
few days, however, there has been an
increasing draft upon the New York
banks for specie deposits. AS we un-
derstaud it, the difficulty is not now,
and the suspension is mere precau-
tionary measure.
The Banks must sustain the Govern
ment, and the people must sustain the
Banks. The Treasury notes must be
received; the Banks must receive them
as they receive other currency, and they
must not--as they might with other
currenoy--refuse them, neither must
they ask specie for them. Such being
the case the Banks must not be drain
ed of their specie, for these Treasury
notes are not available to them for spe.
Gle to supply any drain that might bt
made.
We are not of those who excuse 8
suspension of specie payments, and
have always condemned such acts. But
in the present criss--the like of which
never has been before-we believe it tc
be necessary. And this necessity arises
from the existence of government cur
rency which is not convertible into spe
Gle, but which no patriot can refuse t.
take and pay out at par. This simpl,
fact makes the act not only justifable
but matter of true wisdom.
Ifsuspension is to take place, "'twerr
well it were done ickly,"--before am
run upon the banks; before any excite
ment, aud while the fund of specie il
large.
The Banks never we're in better con,
dition; the fund of specie never larger
and business with the Banks never mort
healthful.
We suppose the Ohio Banks mus
"follow suit" They have larg,
amounts of Treasury notes. These viii
not command specie, and of course tn,
necessity for suspension is absolute -
The Legislature, of course, will legal
ize the act, for if sin the midst of arm
laws are SILENT" assuredly the Law
against suspension, fin aid of tn,
Government in crushing out rebellion
should be silent.
Exchange, we hope, will not be affect
ed. At present we know it will not be
and, if a generous confidence possesses
the Government, the Banks, and tn
People, financial affairs will receive n,
check = Cleveland Herald.
