sum OF money Tor the accommodation oil
OF small borrowers, should receive enough
more Tor the use of il TO cover the loss
incurred while II may have been idle.
Or ii the lender has not the money at
hand, 1t may be some trouble for him to
raise il, for which he deserves some com
pensation. This together with the delay
and expense in collecting the loan when
due, may fairly enttle him to from one
to three per cent extra, on small sums for
few weeks.
Once more isit not also just that he should
receive an extra compensation when he
incun risk of losing the principal. This
rule is acted upon in other matters of
business, A life insurance company will
charge extra, if you expect to travel to a
foreign country. It is the same with in
surance on property. A merchant who
deals in goods, which are apt to spoil or
60 out oil fashion, has to charge an extra
profit So if money is lent to persons
who may fail to repay it, it is just that
the risk should be covered by some kind
of security, or by extra compensation.
The lender may often take this risk upon
himself from motives Of generosity and
neighborly kindness. Doubtless he often
'ciH, it he is an obliging and benevolent
man. But we are discussing the matter
on purely business principles; and here
the rule is emo risk, without compensa-
tion, This may make it hard for the
borrower, but does not the other method
make it still harder fcr the lenderl
am sure, Mr.. Editor, that if more
just and intelligent views were taken OF
these matters by the whole community, no
no class would be half so much benefited
as the borrower. lfthe price of money was
left to regulate itself according to the de-,
mand for capital, the quantity and time of
the loan, and the risk incurred, hundreds
would be willing to let money, who now
cannot afford to lend it for SIX per cent,
and are too scrupulous to take more. In
fact, with the great majority of morey-
dealers the price is determined entirely
independent Of state legislation. The
presen: law has very little efficiency in
preventing extra or even unjust rates Of
interest 10 the matter of loans. Ii merely
hampers the action of few conscientious
men, and casts an unjust censure upon
others, Extortion will be practised una
voidably, until the recognition of just rates
makes it both honorable and profit able
for all, who have money, to lend it. Then
there will be no more extortion in lending
money, than there is now in renting houses
or farms, or in the purchase Of merchan.
