Postage stamps for small chanse--n
Suggestion.

The scarcity of small change is getting to
be a grave, asIit is a growing, evil. There
may betpleuty ofspecie in the country, but
it has been drawn out of circulation. The
banks have the great bulk of it locked up
in their vaults, while Il majority of people
who have not actual immediate use for it,
hoard all they can lay hands on. This
scarcity is beginning to embarrassthe small
operations 10 every kind of business, and
people are anxiOusly looking around for
relief. We hear that the banks here intend
to issue shinplusters, the law and the Gov
errors notice to the contrary notwtthstand-
ing. wetrust such stepwilI not be taken
until other expedients have been tried and
proved to be failures.
In many places postage stamps are used
in the absence of small specie. They furn-
.ish convenient substitute, but as yet there
have been one or two drawbacks upon
their use. In the first place they are incon-
yenient to carry. Not that they take up so
much room, but because they are from
their nature so easily soiled. In the next
place, they will accumulate in such large
quantities, particularly in the drawers of
merchants and other business men, as to
become nearly that much dead capital.
We have plan to suggest, las it was
suggested to us,) which will remedy both
these difficulties, the only really formida.
BILE difficulties in the way of using this
circulating medium. Stamps may be car
ried about the person, both conveniently
and safely, in considerable quantities, in
small fiat boxes, not larger than the uni
versal port mounaie, made of some stiff
substance, say papier uaehe, gutta percha,
xulcanized india rubber, or any substance
of which snuff boxes are made. Yankee
ingenuity would very shortly supply just
the article needed. When We remember
that we have postage stamps in denomina;
tion ranging from one cent to thirty cents,
it will be seen that several dollars of this
convenient change may be carried, as sug-
gested, in very small compass. There
are stamps of thirty, twenty-fonr, twelve,
ten, Eve, three cents, aud one cent With
these any change less than a dollar can be
readily made. aud the purposes of change
served in all respects.
The accumulation of stamps may be pre-
vented by an arrangement with the agents
ofthe Post Office Department, by which
they would redeem postage stamps with
Treasury Notes wb e6eyer REase1 ted in sums
of say over Eve dollars, They now receive
