FINANCIAL.
Knoxville Quotations of Money and stocks.
OYFIcE KNOXVILLE CHRoSIcLE,
Friday, June 10. 1870.

In Congress, the House Funding bill, which
has attracted so much of the attention Of the
country for the last few weeks, has come out in
an entirely new shape. 1t differs totally from
the Senate bill, and provides for long four per
cent. bond exempt from all taxation. The com
pulsory clause requiring the national banks TO
take the new bonds has been stricken out The
clause allowing the bonds to be negotiated
abroad is also stricken out it, provisions con-
corning national banks is in direct antagonism
with the ninety-four million national bank bills
which has been agreed upon by the Banking and
Currency Committee It'll evident there will be
a severe struggle between these two committees
in regard to the national bank features in the
two bills Secretary Boutwell, is strongly OPP
posed to the bill proposed by the Ways and
Means Committee, and will use his influence TO
defeat it,
A number of persons from New York, inter
ested in banking matters, were before the Bank
ing and Currency Committee recently, advocat-
| ing II new banking scheme, which shall allow
individuals or corporations doing banking bust
ness, to deposit in the United States Treasury
either gold bullion United States notes or silver
| as n basis on which Government notes shall be
| issued that securities to be deposited with the
Government, of whatever nature, shall receive
| as a collateral an amount of currency equal TO
the price of gold on the day they are deposited,
and that no limits shall be made to the issue of
notes as banking capital so long as the securi-
ties are held by the Treasury of the United
States. 1t is understood the Committee does not
regard the scheme with favor.
