rINANc1Al AND COMMERCIAL.

There has been much said recently about re-
turning to specie payment, resumption OF
speeie payment, &C., together with the report
that the President and Secretary OF the Treasury
are in favor Of it, and will advise it in their re.
ports. &c, all Of which, as we believe, is caused
by the simple fast that gold has got down 10 .
figure low enough TO suggest the possibility OF
its going still lower, and that as par is 30 very
near, little forcing on the part Of the govern
ment will bring it; bnt all of who think this
forget to look at the fact, that money is now
very scarce and business dull, and that 1t is the
duty of our government to help the business OF
the country rather than PROSTATE it still moro by
forcing specie resumption and as we stated in
our last, we have full faith in our Congress soon
to meet and think they will not fail to adopt
such measures IS will tend rather to the relief of
the business OF tho country, than to u resumption
of specie payment.
Gold in New York is about 1877, and 1875 is the
price bid in Ottawa Silver, rs.
