HAYTl.

The Paper Money Question Brought
Forward by Government-The COun-
try Quiet.
ST. THOMAS, June 6. 1872.
The great topic of the day In the republic of
Hayti is the proposal to do away with the paper
money, the great curse of Hayti.
The government brought forward a motion dur
ing the past fortnight in order to abolish it, but the
method OF doing it is not liked by the Chambers.
The following is the proposal of governments
There exists in Hayti reserve fund amounting
at present to s26O,Ooo specie, which fund is
dire cted entirely TO the substitution OF the
paper currency. The government, however, pro-
poses TO issue l. 2oooooo OF paper piastres the
divided into twenty series. These paper piastres
are to be regarded as specie, the first series 10 be
redeemable six months after the calling in of the
present gourdes In hard money, and at the end OF
each successive six months one of the series to be
called in. The government pledge themselves to
accept these paper pastres for all payments ex-
cept those to the reserved fund, each series to be
divided into 1000 white bank bills of five piasres,
of one piastre. The bills are to be printed the
best parchment, and with special plates to defy
forgery.
Each bill to bear the following inscription 1.-THE
present bill will pass in the whole republic for the
value of value OF the bi, which the reserve chest
will pay to bearer, in accordance with law there to
follow the date Of the law. The bills will be signed
by the President Of the Chamber Of Accounts, the
Treasury General OF the republic and the Secretary
OF Finances or his deputy.
Should more than the 900 be presented the
Treasury is authorized to accept, giving bonds Of
deposit and at the next meeting OF the Chambers o
bill will be brought forward for the emission Of
more paper piastres.
The Chambers object to this method, stating
that the people Will not understand it, and that the
new paper piastres will shortly be no better than
the gourdes now in use. They wish the S26o,ooo to
be used Immediately In cashing that amount OF pa
per- and as the reserve fund increases to continue
calling In SO much paper.
| Government proposes to redeem the paper at the
to $3.50.
The whole country is quiet. The generals on
the frontiers report no more movements lately Ol
the En-SalnavistS
At Port Prince 1t is reported that the cotton
scarce. AT Cape Hayti, coffee deliveries small, price
$1,000. LogwoOd more plenty; quoted at $1,000.
Vessels find difficulty In getting employment, the
bulk Of the produce being taken by the steamers
running tom Port au Prince to New York.
