dred Millions of Dollars Nearly Pour Hundred Millions
have been already subscribed for and paid into the Treas
ury mostly within the last months The large de-
mand from abroad, and the rapidly increasing nome u
mand for the basis for circulation by National Bank
ing Associations now organizing in all parts OF the oou-
try will in a very short period absorb the balance.

ly frequently exceeding three millions daily, and as II Is
well known that the Secretary OF the Treasury has ample
and unfaling in the Duties Imports and In
ternal Revenue, and in the issue of the lneresbearg
Legal Tender Treasury Notes 1t is almost certainty that

some premium the result with the "Seyen Thirty

paid in Coin. These duties have for a long time past
amounted to Quarter of Million of Dollars daily
sum nearly three times greater than that required in the
payment of the interest ON all the 520s and other per-
manent loans So 1t hoped that the Surplus Coin in the
Treasury at distant day will enable the United States
to resume specie payments upon all liabilities.
