Why Thread Is Dear.

In the good old times, before the days Of
p1ohibltory tariffs, the price Of spool cotton
was rs low In this country as In England.
"Coats'" Was sold at four cents spool.
Notwithstanding the advance iutcotton, the
retail price in,England is still txo' pencc (2d.}
spool for the best threads, or only four cents
In American coin. Making due allowance for
the rise Of ofexchange, spool Of thread would
not cost US mora: than nine cents, If It were

ward to victory or dcath--while the stand
ards OF the rebellion are reeling, their coun-
ellis perfect Babel, and their plans evidently
frustrated at all points in conse-
quence Of these events, our currency is ad-
vancing until it is now actually worth 50 in
stead Of IS cents on the dol1ar-it is well to
inquire what Congress is doing to still fur
thcr help the country out Of its financial Diff
cultics. There is no doubt that the safety Of
the country depends as much on procuring
for us q sound currency as It does on abolish
ing slavcyy-perhaps more. And get knot
OF men who dishonesty t1lch wealth from the
pockets Of the poor, By Issuing irredeemable
paper Fl rom local banks to dilute and destroy
the currency Of the Government, are in the
House and in the Senate, In person or by at
torncy, saying to the nation, "Take the
blood Of your sons and the tears Of your Wild
ows and orphans, destroy slavery, and even
liberty for the time being, If need be, to save
the country; but dent touch my privilege Of
coming paper money, of Issuing IN i17edecm-
able loan, Of weakening your currency, Of
prolouging your war, Of multiplying your
widows and orphans. In short, tax every
thing else except the evil that makes your
taxes DOUBLE. Don't tax the $3oo, ,0o0, 900
Of paper money which we have abroad
which the people hare loaned us without In
test when they could SO i'll afford it. Great
is Diana Of the Ephesians! Great arc our
private banks. They make the Government
poor md you poor. But they make us rich :
They e,nbarr1ss the war. They can easily be
turned into National Banks through which
we could still pursue our legitimate business,
except that we should have to conduct 1t
upon much safer principles. We conld not
then Issue Is in bills for every dollar Of our
capital. Why subject NJ to such burden:
Let US initiate the currency Let MS break
.tlr country down with financial panic every
zen wears hereafter Us heretofore, for thereby
Ee get gain"
So reason the local banks so oct the Con-
grcss1nen In their interest. 5ecretary Chase,
Secretary Fesscndcn, the Comptroller Of the
Currency. The President, all call our Con
crcss to tax the local Banks ont Of existence
and bring gold down to $50. They certify,
and Congress knows, that this step is neces-
sa.y to perfect our financial system, and that
our present condition is that Of house d.
vidcd against itself. Let the people Of the
- -ssests demand Of their representatives, 80 far
rs they arc not owners Of wildcat banks, to
tar those enemies Of the country ont Of ex-
.stence.
VIC cannot afford to loan to the Govern
ment Ill the money It needs, and TO the local
banks In addition value for all the paper they
