A Somewhat Gloomy View of the FL

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
In many quarters the opinion IS ex-
Y,rpssed that the commencement OF the

Oh enSs. in money and general reStora-
zion of business. As the causes whlch
have united to produce the e1lSti gn.

notes are renewed in some form as they
mature. an idea which should not LOB

the Treasury, there must be shaFP
contraction in bank circulation anu

Slowly. and thus far the decrease IN
LEGAL lender money Of all kinds has had
no effect beyond advancing the rate oI

But other and more violent effects VIII
be shown upon the money market, ana
the prices OF commodities, as contrac-
ton proceeds TO that stage where the
combined amount of legal tenders,
compound notes and coin fall below the
legal reserve required under the bank
ing law. Then will be seen

which have marked the history OF COM

real cost of the rebellion is now begin
ming to appear, and those who manage
their affairs upon the model adopted
when the Government was making and
spending two millions of paper money

great purchaser of everything, from

with manufactured money has disap'
peared, and is succeeded by the tax
Satheerr and II funded debt, requiring
daily nearly half a million OF dollars

Correction.
E.Iitors n,telliaeneer:

Editors LltelliJencer:
l observe was in error when stated
that section 1 of article ., of the Consti-
tuition, released the taxes and damages
on all lands returned delinquent since
1881, "where the tract did not exceed
1000 acres, or the taxes, exclusive of
damages, did not exceed $40"
The release 10 confined to land where
the delinquent taxes, exclusiveof dam
ages, did not exceed S20-regardless of
the quantity OF land in the tract. 1t
was the release of the GOrt lecture for non
entry and payment of taxes, with such
taxes, of tracts of land not exceeding
1000 acrps-that led me into the error.
The error does not materially vary the
character of the section, or diminish,
to any considerable extent, tho unjust
and peTnicious consequences.
