That my position may not be misapprehsnded
would say again distinctly that would pay
every bond in coin that created before the
passage of the legal-tender act and all created
since, where the law and the bond provide for
coin payment. All others should be paid in law
full money as fast as redeemable.
The policy here advocated, Mr.. Chairman, will
not impair the value stability of the currency.
1t is destructive of no honest industry, .ubver-
sive of no individual rights, unless the national
banks may be considered Que of the industrial
interests Of the country, with aprescrptive right
to transfer the money Of the people to their own
pockets through monopoly in the circulating
medium. 1t is not even subyersive Of that ight,
for the law of their creation expressly declared
their liability to extinction at any moment the
public interest demanded. 1t isnot destructive
unless the light thumps following the putting
down the breaks ON the train rushing TO destruu-
ton is called destructive in disturbing the quiet
of those unconscious of danger; neither is it rev.
dictionary unless the desire of letting well enough
alone, of keeping things as they have been, is
called by that name; nor is it visionary unless
the determination TO live on in the same old quar-
ters until we get out of debt can be said to be a
vision On the contrary, it is conservative, pre-
eminently SO. to stand still when We know where
to go. 1t will give immediate relief to the coun-
try in removing the dread uncertainty that hangs
over every branch of business.

to pay interest Now, who would not have
money 10 pay their tax The merchants goods
would be marked mp ut once. The increased
wages to the laborer would enable him to pay
the merchant. Everybody's pockets would be
full of money while the debt was being paid.
Enough gold would be received at our custom
houses to pay our foreign officials. and the bal
ance, If any, sold to the highest bidder, to help
here at home" tfsfA
We present the above to add to the store of
thought on the subject of which it treats No
more important matter can, at this time, occupy
the attention of the people; and whatever will
contribute to set them thinking on it, should
be presented for the public considerstion-Cin-

taken under oath, in a recent case pending before
tic United States Patent Oiyice npon the actual
merits Of the GROyER & BAKER SEWING MACBINv,
ana IT'S reiahEe merits as compared with other
machines
Mas. CARoLIyg I. PEARSON, 30 Court Street
Brooklyn, lady who has bad twelve years' prac-
teal acquaintance with the leading Sewing Ma
chimes, asserts that the Grover & Baker Machine
Is the best, and gives the following reasons:
Q.-Among your acquaintance who have used
the Grover X Baker, and also other machines
state whether not the Grover L Baker IL in ali
cases known TO you, preferred for family use
Al suppose | have compared my experience
with over Eve hundred ladies, and never, except
II one instance, found that they preferred other
machines TO the Grover & Baker, When they have
tried both machines.
Q.-WhGt are the reasons of this preference :?
Please state them fully and at large
A.-The principal reason, or one of the main
reasons is for the elasticity and durability of the
stitches the regularity and beauty of the stitch
all fabrics alike. There are some machines
which sew very nicely on certain kinds of work
that do not sew well ON others | have never
found the fabric yet that the Grover & Baker Ma
chimes will not sew in the most beautiful manner
think II does not take more than half the time
TO adapt or adjust the Grover & Baker Machine 10
different kinds of work aud fabricks than il docs
on any other machine. ! think the stitch is in
valuable 10 families in furnishing chcap and ra-
