Growth shall absorb the surplus currency,
aud specie payments shall come in the
course of nature.
He says s'the probabilities seem to be
that with wise administration of the finan-
ces paper and specie viii gradually and
surely, though perhaps slowly, approxi-
mate to an equality in value. II it were
possible, in considering the practicability
of resumption, to distinguish between cir
culation and deposits, making the former
PAYABLE in specie, while the latter should
be payable in kind, much of the difficulty
and DANGER attendant on return to specie
payments would be removed"
The doctrine of contraction as a means to
an end for the purpose Of Fastening re-
turn to specie payments, has been con-
dernned by the people. 1t has been tried
and rejected, and may be considered as
abandoned.
The proposition to wait until the BUSH
ness of the country shall expand to such
an extent as to require the whole volume OF
paper money IN circulation, involves no I'M
mediate action, meets the views Of the pub
lie more fully than any other plan, and is
probably safer than any scheme which re-
quires legislative interference.
It is also very evident that the undertake
ing, heretofore considered, to place the en-
tire currency debt Of the country on q
specie basis, by the payment of deposits in
coin, would be an unwise and mischieyous
thing. a vain and futile attempt, which
would lead to panics and failures in the fu-
ture as in the past. If specie payments
are to be resumed, let the effort be concen.
trated upon the currency, and leave depos'
its and all other currency debts to DO ADJUST
cd by private contract. As the drst step II
this direction, the associated banks In al

A Singular and affecting scene occurred
in Galveston not long since, where the
rector of an Episcopal church was strick-
en- with death while in the pulpit, An
nouncing his text, "There is yet room,'
and trembling beneath the weight Of his
last message, he referred to the friends of
his youth, and communicates of his
church that had gone before. While
earnestly appealing to his people he saw
that his time had come his words strug.
gled for utterance; he faltered; his
weakenieg limbs staggered. A gentle
man who advanced to his assistance was
waved back. For ten minutes more he
spoke, his words only audible to those
near him. The excitement of the audi
ence was fearful. Three times he, strug-
gled to continue, saying, II am very sick,
but I must say" Again he staggered
He fell into the arms of a friend as he
raised his hand to pronounce the bene-
diction. His last pulpit words were, "To
God The Father" But his tongue re-
fused to speak further; his hands drop
ped. He was carried to. his. rectory,
where he died.
