Al fully believe in free banking.
1t is the true principle, and we must

Q-Mr. Claflin, will you tell me
why we cannot in some way proper.
ly control the finances OF the country
and keep them more steady, as they
do in England +?
A.-Well, it would be very easy
to do this if we had the disposition.
just look at it. The whole business
world is startled when the Bank Of
England advances its rate of interest
half per centum per annum, or from
four to four aud halt. And yet,
the rates for money in this country
may advance from seven per cent. to
three hundre per cent, anil no one
moves hair, aud nothing is done By
the government. This is very dis.
couraging to business men. These
speculators are usurers, who lock up
millions of currency. paralyzipg and
jeopardlzing every business interest
in the country and the government
itself should be taught that they can
play that game with safety. The
government has the power to do
this, and it should promptly exercise
it, in my opinion, 10 every emergen.
cy. We cannot expect stability and

and they will not until q different
policy is pursued.

Who that has loved knows not the tender
tale,
Which flowers reveal when lips are coy to
tell2
Whose youth has paused not, dreaming in
the vale,
Where the rath violets dwell!
Lo, where they shrink along the lonely
brake,
Under the lifeless, melancholy tree,
Nor yet the cuckoo sings, nor glides the
snake,
Nor wild thyme lures the bee.
Yet at their sight and scent entranced and
thrilled,
All June seems golden in the April skies;
How sweet the days we yearn for, till full
