That the South, in their rebellion, have such

TAX ON BANK BILLs.-We give the follow
ing debate, which arose in the Senate upon
motion to tax bank bills.
Mr.. Sherman oeffred an amendment that
there shall be paid annually, by every person
or corporation issuing notes or bills for circu-
lation as money, duty of two per cent on the
largest amount outstanding during the great
er part of the year preceding. He said that
the right to issue paper money was as fit
subject of taxation as any other property.
Mr.. Clark IN. H. said, in his state the
banks did pay tax for the privilege of circu-
lation.
Mr., Sherman said if they were taxed by the
state they certainly were a fit subject for tax
alton by tie general government. This fran
chise was wo.ia S9.Co0,000 TO the banking in
.erest in the country. But The principal object
OF The amendmen, was 10 drive out Of circula-
tion ,he local issuing of paper money, which
everywhere ne regarded rs government right
There are now 1.396 banks under The most di-
verse systems, and the loss by countereiting
and bad noes OF various kinds amounts nearly
TO the same as the ialeres,, which is S9000O00.
Such a system of banking was not wise but
only leads 10 confusion. The paper money is
sued by the United States was boarded up by
the banks and made the basis Of the issue of a
large amount oflocal money, so that the United
States are obliged to take this local paper or
else issue more of its own paper only to have
the operation repeated.
Mi. Collamer (Vt.) thought the senator was
mistaken in his financial policy. He did not
believe our condition so desperate as to upturn
the whole financial system OF the country. sane
titled by long usage. He knew that the pres
ent convulsiol in the country destroyed many
of the banks, but the reason the banks do not
redeem is because they have taken as much T.
States stocks as they could carry, and when the
United States refused 10 redeem then the
banks stopped also; aud now by this amend
meat it proposed utterly to destroy the banks.
Does any man suppose this government new
er viii return to specie redemption? Is the
Senate ready 10 adopt this proposition to drive
all local paper mo5ey out of existence and
have fhe government issue all paper money
which they never propose 10 redeem. We
have passed a law compelling the banks to re-
ceive U. 5. paper instead o. gold, and now pro-
pose 20 break them up because they do not
redeem their notes in gold. when by our law
We refuse 10 let them have gold
Mr.. Sherman tOhio) replied contending at
some length for the superiority of the U. S pa
per currency, and Che propriety of the passage
OF The proposed amendment.
Nj. Fessenden thought this very important
matter, which he was not at present prepared
TO consider as II deserved, and he suggested the
withdrawal of the amendment.
