Our Currency.

We publish All excellent article in To. days

tenan who is we'll known to many of our
readers. Mr. Robinson is the agent of the
Confedeia ate Government for ;hs District in the
matter OF the "P'oduce Loan" subscribed, we
think, in the summer OF 1860
The question OF our currency is one Of vast
Importance at this time, and is occupying a
large share OF the attention Of Congress It is
generally conceded that the currency OF the
country should not exceed one hundred aud
hi,y millions The statistics show that the
currency at present exceeds three hundred
millions, exclusive oi about OH, hundred and
hity millions OF the six per cent call loau aud
interest bearing treasury notes, which are not
counted as circulation, but which are neveIthe.
less used as such to some extent Add 10 this
the estimated amount to he raised by the .st of
July next Uhree hundIed aud fifty seven mil.

A nuwber OF plans have been proposed among
them Is proposition to make forced loan
