tember intervention in behalf Of the infationsta
by the Secretary OF the Treasury No finance minis
ter stood higher with the speculatos Of Wallsk
than Mr. McCulloch does to-day. Like crows in
cornfeld discussing the scare crow. they proclaim
that his gun, contraction is harmless and that his
repeated fuminations about specie payments are
nothing but unmeanng letters upon financial
guide-boad. If the Secretary is in earnest. why does
he not withdraw the petty four millions per month
of irredeemable paper which dcgrades the currency
The effect of the Treasury policy has been to put
railroads like New-York Central, paying per cent
in currency at higher prico than the majority Of
the 6 per cent gold-bearing debt commands.
