The Report of Secretary McCullOch

The report of the Secretary of the Treas
ury is very lengthy and although impor-
tant and able, we are obliged, for want of
space, to give only a brief abstract of it.
after going hastily over the history of the
condition of the treasury since March 1868,
the secretary discusses the question OF a
return to specie payments. He urges this as
of the very highest Importance. Paper
money was only one of the necessities of the
war, and should be got rid of as soon as
possible. This can be done by gradual
contraction or withdrawal of greenbacks.
Business would not suffer by such a course :;
the amount of currency now in circulation
is much larger than the real wants of business
demand and as soon as enough greenbacks
are retired to cause a deficiency in currency,
gold and silver will again become money,
and thus keep the market supplied In this
connection the secretary also insists that the
national bank bills should not be replaced by
greenbacks and he claims Enormously we
thnk) that nothing would he saved to the
government in interest by such a change.
On the subject of revenue, taxes and
tariffs, the report urges the necessity of econ
omy in expenditures, reduction Of the
number OF articles taxed, some change in
the excise on distilled liquors, 80 that it may
be possible to prevent the frauds now per
petrated in that branch of the revenue, and
a modification in the tariff laws; but he
admits that, in the present condition Of the
currency and of prices. it Will be very diff
cult to readiust duties on imports so that
they shall, on the whole, be favorable IN
amount of customs received, and at the same
time be SO framed as to help the business of
the country.
The 500 bonds, the secretary insists. are
payable in gold, both by the intention OF the
trainers of the laws under which they were
issued, and by the declarations of the treas
urv department at the time they were put
upon the market. TO pay or redeem these
bonds the secretary recommends the author
ization of six per cent. bonds, TO be known
as the Consolidated Debt of the United
States, having twenty years to run, and l.
be payable, principal and interest, IN gold
These bonds are to be exempt from all tax
alton, but one per cent. of the interest Is to
be retained by the government and annually
paid to the states, in gold, in proportion to
their population and this is regarded as
about fair equivalent for the state, county
and municipal taxes which would be levied
upon these bonds. The secretary seems to
anticipate that the holders Of sos would
convert them into these securities or, if
not, the securities could be sold and the old
issues bought in.
The estimate of receipts and disburse-
ments for the current year leaves only very
small balance to the credit side Of the ac-
count.

Military Governments.

The Presidents message denounces con-
gressional reconstruction because it estab-
fishes military governments in the southern
states; and it says military governments
are not republican in form Suppose this
to be true, and what is to be said of presi-
Dental reconstruction? When Congress ad-
journed in March, 1865, there were two kinds
of governments in force in the rebel states,
civil governments established by traitors, and
military rule established by the commanders
Of our armies Did President johnson rec
ognize the civil governments as valid? Not
at all, but, by his first proclamation, swept
them all out of existence. What govern
only military authority. Mr.. johnson then
went to work through the military, and by
the device of provisional goyernments,-a
plan unknown TO our constitution. and with
out precedent in our history-attempte q
reorganization of these states which he pro-
claimed to be without governments If he
was right then lie is wrong now, and if he
was wrong then the organizations which grew
out of that wrong, and which Congress de-
clared illegal, were, of course, of no validity.
Before he can assail congressional reconstruc-
ton he is obliged to condemn and denouncc
his own early attempts at the same business
for it certainly can be no more unconstitu-
tional for Congress to establish despotism
than for Mr.. johnson to establish one. That
argument is gun which hurts as much at
the breech as at the muzzle.
