The financial scheme raid TO have been agreed
upon between the BanA Committee and Mr. Chase
and which was telegrahed yesterday, does not meet
with acceptance in bank or moneyed ol'cles. In
deed there lie very general disbelief that the Seore-
tary has given his assent to the scheme IA t.le-
grarhed, it being considered tie least wise and prc'
ticsble of the many which have been propoeed. I'm
der this programme the Secretary has only about
twenty millions Of Government Notes which he can
issue. while his floating de bt which is pressed upon
him. must reach nearly one hundred millions. 1t IL
difficult TO see why 365per cent interes. notes should
be issued, when notes bearing interest would be
uladly received by public creditors, ana pass
freely among all classes Of the community,
excepting with few fsouous bank
officers, a. money. Such notes will probably
be used Unfortunately with che nonnterest notes,
as currency the interest being ignored until near ma
turty and the amount becomes important Some
one will then get interest than IL their due,
portion Of which belonged 10 the earlier holders
Tn. issue of these notes will swell the volume OF
currency equally with non-int.rest paying notes ut
useless expense TO the country. The fact that the
demand notes are not made legal tender leaves any
bauk or individual at liberty TO reject or accept them
and instead Of one uniform currency all over the
country secured BY pledge al the public fhth' when
had been hoped for by the whole community, we
-hn have two or three kinds OF currency, and all at
a discount from the speoie standard IL VIII be seen
by the Stock report that the simple apprehension
that the programme alluded to may be adopted 10y
