Condition OF the New York BankS.ss
Scarcity of CuFrency.-.T Treasury
Department in fall Control OF the
Money Market.
15iblue's Money ATtisle ofths2Ia.
The leading lenders of the street to-
day put up their loans to 4 per cent, and
few are paid of in consequence. Cur
rency is scarce among the banks, and a
good deal of shopping has to be done
when large checks are called for in cash,
and that, too, by banks reporting the
greatest strength in legal tenders. The
banks, as whole, are not in position
to expand. They have too large pro-
portion of their capital and deposits in
vested in United States stocks, or loan
ed upon them, to permit them to go to
the rescue of traders in grain, provi-
sions, dry goods, or stocks, and relief
can only come to borrowers by selling
the commodities they are holding goh
affairs now stand, borrowers and lend
ers alike must concede that we
are upon the summit of the infln-
ton growing out of the rebellion
The national banks have exhausted
their power to issue currency, and
commenced to destroy the legal tenders
by which National notes are redeemed.
AS he is able to continue this process,
and at the same time to fund and pay
off short currency debts, it follows, as
natural result, that the banks and the
borrowers OF the country must reduce
their liabilities in some proportion to
the withdrawal of the legal tenders upon
which they are now operating. The
Treasury Department fully controls the
money market, and though funding and
payment is steadily working back to
specie pRyments-not SO fast as many
desire, but still to degree which should
teach people prudence about making
new engagements. The buying power
of money increases day by day, as all
can see who will take the trouble to read
the prices current of theproducts of the
country, whether from the soil or from
manufacture. Congress may legislate
in the direction of expansion, and so
defer for n short time the resumption of
specie payments, but people will do we'll
not to be too sure of this, and to keep
themselves as much out of debt as pos
sible. In commercial paper little is do
ing, call loans having decided prefer
ence with lenders.

The Proposition to Resume Spec,e


The Proposition to Resume SDecle
Payments.
We are grntiAed to find our views in
regard to the currency, AS expressed
in our comments upon the New York
2Fi6WRe'S proposal to resume specie
payments, backed up by such good au-
thOrity as the Cincinnati Gu=ettc. The
editor very well says that the project of
paying specie while we have 500, OOO, 900
of currency afloat, Cat least that much,
need not DO specially remarked on as
visionary in the extreme. SIT would
create" he says, ga movement which
would make gold hot by the friction
while 1t lasted" The country has new
or yet demonstrated its ability to nav
speoie with go millions OF currency In
circulation. What miraculous change
has taken place that mon think it
might carry three or four times that
amountR Is there any imaginable
reason, save that We have more curren-
cy afioat2 Tho very thing that has had
to be gotten out of the way in all pre-
vious suspensions before resuming.
"And what would DO the conse-
quences II the Treasury should force a
resumption OF specie payment, and II
the drain OF specie should stand it9
Hnving smashed everything, itself in
the bargain, we should have gold apain
a kiting, and the same problem of the
currency expansion to meet.
'"rhe evil of the currency is in the ne
cessity of contraction in order 10 get
back to the worlds basis. The evil Is
yet to come. 1t Is the widest folly 10
talk OF specie payment without a pre-
HiouS reduction of the currency. The
reduction OF the currency cannot be car.
rted out, no matter how gradual it NAV
be, without severe and general distress.
A sharp contraction will turn this dis
tress into general ruin that will sweep
trade, industry, banks, public credit
and Government revenues into a com.
mon destruction. We have al.
ready a reaction OF prices, In
consequence of the limit of the
expansion. The rate of contrac-
ton which Congress AUTHORISED
four millions a month-will before
long begin to be felt. As soon as that
reduction of the greenbacks is felt.
there will begin a call on the banks fol
redemption in greenbacks. This will
compel them to contract their circula.
tion. Thus the contraction of the
Rreenbacks will be multiplied in effect
and the consequences of this on prices
will be magnih6d by the general knOwl.

THE New York World concludes that
the Southern States will reject the
amendment of the Constitution, and
that it will therefore fail, and adds
"Why is the nonsense so necessarily
dinned In our ears that the late elections
have decided that the South must either
rattfy the amendment or take the con-
sequencesF Consequences The only
constitutional consequence will be, that
the Constitution remains unRltered.
The Constitution remaining, in spite of
the republicans, unaltered, will they
condesceDd to tell us lihGt they propose
to do about it,"
1t is our impression that it will be for
those who are out and want to be in, to
''tell us what they propose to do about
it" It may be found that the charms
of such a situation are not so great as
to preclude the possibility of their re-
considering their rejection of the terms
offered for their reinstatement.
