mr.. Houuwell's Policy.

The fifth section of the Legal Tender
Acs,of 1862 provided that one per cent?
OF the public debt should be purchased
every year, with the gold received from
customs, after the interest OF the year
is paid. While thus redceming por-
ton OF the debt each year, sum equal
to the interest on that redeemed was 10
be- aGcum ulated and applied to redemp-
ton only until the whole shall be re-
deemed. Up to the present time this
law has never been put in operation,
but for several weeks past Secretary
Boutwell, has had under advisement
the expediency of enforcing it, and 1t
was announced O few days since that
he had decided to put 1t in force from
the end of the present fiscal year, he
having instructed the Assistant Treas
urer at New York to purchase bonds TO
the amount of million week. 1t Is
now stated by authority ofthe Secretary
that this purchase of bonds hes moth
Ing to do with the sinking fund.
Tue treasury holds large surplus after
meeting the interest. The receipts are
Olarge as to render it certain that there
will be "a surplus, though how long
cannot be fOreseeu. While this sur
plus lies idly In the Treasury, the Gov
eminent is losing the interest which it
would stop, if used in the redemption
ofthe interest bearing debt. The duty
of the Secretary would be very plain,
II it were certain that receipts in future
would ke equal to the demands on the
Treasury-if for example, the custom
receipts could be relied on to produce
gold enough from now to the first OF
July interest and thence to the first OF No
vembcr to meet the November inter
est. In order to employ n portion Of
his surplus and still be ready for emeT-
gencies, Mr.. Boutwell, has determined
to buy bonds, a million a week, and
hold them. This saves the interest
while the bonds are thus held, and IL
for any reason there should be tem-
porary failure of revenues, they
GOULD be put on the market again.
L. does docs something more; it
prevents such rise in prices as would
follow the cancellation OF any consider.
able amount, and enables the Secretary
to buy at lower figures than otherwise.
1t is to be hoped, however, that no bonds
bought in by the Government will ever
be reissucd, and that tho Treasury sur
plus will be kept at the lowest figures
consistent with due provision for the
liabilities Of the Government as they
become due.
