national bank notes for them must be iustiaed
II at all, on quite other grounds than public
convenience. We hope that Congress. at its
next session, will forbid any further issues of
them, and fix a reasonable but limited time
for their withdrawal, and the substitution
OF as large an amount of additional green
packs as may be required by the business of
the country.
There is no reason why the Government
should not have the profit of our irredeemable
circulation instead of the banks. What title
have the banks to the eighteen or twenty mil
lions year which are thus taken out of the
pockets OF the people, The Government alb.
surdly gives to these banks the Ut of an
amount OF funds equal to their whole circula-
ton. BY substituting greenbacks, it would
relieve the people from the burden of precisely
that amount of debt. We prefer the green
backs, indeed, only as a choice of evils, and
because we are not likely for some time to
return TO specie payments. Probably we shall
never return to them so long as the national
banks are permitted to issue currency. The
banks and the business community hold to
each other reciprocally the relation of debtor
and creditor, the community owing the banks
in the aggregate more than the banks owe
the community. In such a state of things, a
return to specie payments cannot be forced
without ruinous consequences. The same
kind of money must necessarily be legal
IO4luOA ~ blAO Oe1L1Ao olO oy thohl' In5 DduhS
can pay their debts only by collecting from
their Debtors and if they are compelled to
pay in specie they will collect their dues in
specie to get the means. As the community owe
the banks more than the banks owe the COM
munity, this liability would bring on univer-
sal alarm and distress, and precipitate the
country into a commercial cenvulsion from
which it would take years to recover. Specie
payments cannot come by any forcing process,
or by any sudden, dislocating jerk; but only
by gradual steps directed by wise foresight.
The national banks as now organized, are a
hindrance and impediment, instead of help.
Let the Government issue the whole currency,
and it will have complete control of it. The
banks cannot then put their screws upon the
people and thwart the Government, when it
chooses to reintroduce payments in coin.
With the bank issues out of the way, the
Government can gradually assimilate the
value of greenbacks to gold and by its great
facilities for obtaining the latter it can safely
lead the way and set the example of specie
payments without any of the jolts, shocks, or
distress which great afiliation of obstructive
banks might easily occasion.

The Min QueatIOn.

From The ". Y. Tribune.
'Shall four millions of our countrymen be
henceforth serfs and outcasts in the land of
their birth, with their descendants through
all generations ?'' Such is the great question
remaining to be solved by the judgment and
votes of the American people.
These four millions are not even accused of
having forfeited the common rights of human
nature by any crime. The gravest accusation
lodged against them is that of ignorance; and
this by the oracles of faction which has
systematically excluded them from common
schools and made teaching them in any way
felony. No people ever welcomed instruction
more eagerly or profted by it more signaly
than do the blacks of this country; there are
more of them learning to read to-day than Of
the poor whites of the States wherein they
mostly live; and their general anxiety to learn
renders their speedy enlightenment moral
certainty. No white man is denied political
rights in the South because he is ignorant;
the blacks are prescribed only because they
are black.
The blacks are full eighth of the American
people. They have been fifth they will soon
fall to tenth, and so to a smaller and smaller
proportion, only because of our immense, per-
sistent immigration, which is wholly white.
They have done their full proportion of the
work OF clearing off the timber, fencing and
otherwise preparing the soil for civilized use,
! yet they own scarcely an acre or habitatlon'
But this is their country as well as ours: here
they were born, and here they will live and
| die.
1t is idle to talk of expelling or extermina-
ting them. Europe tried this with the Jews
through thousand years of systematic spoil
alton, scourging, torture, and massacre; yet
here are the Jews to-day. They were hated,
scorned, cursed, reviled, execrated, worse than
the blacks have ever been; pious Christians
have felt 1t their religious duty to avenge on
them the Saviour's execution; children SPIT
on them In the market and stoned them III
the street; mobiles and priests conspired WITH
popes and emperors to destroy the detesteo
race; the luquisition racked and burned them
the rabble hunted and robbed them; yet they
outllved all, holding their ground throughout
Chrlstendom. The negro has like vitality, anc
will endure as they did.
The blacks will live and will remain III TINS
their native land. Fear of their power, IL
view OF their fewness and their poverty, woulC
be despicable, even if it were not the bases
hypocrisy. Having been dragged hither py
lorce and violence; having been longer II
America, in the average, than the White
nave; having done their share to make thl
land habitable by and hospitable to civilized
men, having fought calamity to uphold
Government avowedly based ON the inalienaol
rights OF man, they mean to stay here an'
share the blessings they have worked am
fought to achieve. He who, having deslre'
the triumph of the Union in our late struggle
would now exile them to Africa or elsewhere
is at once villain and fool.
1t is happy circumstance that the Whlt

People will Talk.

We may get through the world but
twill be very slow, if we listen to all
that is said, as we go; we'll be worried
and fretted and kept in a stew, for med
dlesome tongues must have something
to do. Ifquiet and modest, you'll have
it presumed that your humble position
is only assumed; you're wolf in
sleeps clothing, or else you're fool;
but don't get excited, keep perfectly
cool. And SO, if you show the least
boldness of heart, or slight indication
to take your own part, they'll call you
an upstart, conceited and vain, but keep
straight ahead, don't stop to explain.
If threadbare your coat, old-fashioned
your hat, some one, of course, will take
notice of that, and hint rather strong
that you can't pay your own way, but
don't get excited whatever they say. If
you dress in the fashion, don't think to
escape, for they criticise then in a diff
ferent shape; you're ahead of your
means or your tai!or's unpaid. But
mind your own business, there's naiIght
to be made. Ifa fellow but chances to
wink at a girl, how the gossips will talk,
and their scandal unfurl; they'll canvass
your wants, and talk of your means,
and declare you're engaged to a chit in
her teens. Now the best way to do, is
to do as you please, for your mind, if
you have one, will then be at ease; of
course, you'll meet with all sorts of
abuse, but don't think to stop them, it
amt any use.
