THE NEW FINANCE BILL,

The Senate, Thursday, passed a
new finance bill, the leading features
of which are: a. Free banking.
(2) The retiring of an amount of
greenbacks equal to so per cent of
the amount of the new National Bank
notes issued until the greenback cir
culation shall be reduced to $780,
600, 1000; after which no further re-
duction Of greenbacks is to take place.
(S.) The withdrawal and destruction
Of fractional currency and the substi-
tuition Of silver coin, as soon as prac-
ticable, a. Removing the cost for
the coinage of gold at the minis. (5.)
Resumption of specie payment, jan
uary LIST, 1879.
The bill is Objectionable in some
Of its features, and very especially in
the second, which gives the Secretary
of the Treasury the power to increase
or diminish the volume Of the cur
rency at his individual pleasure.
But, as a whole, the bill is a long
step in the right direction, and as
such will be gratefully accepted by
the country. 1t was passed by al
most a straight party vote-every Re
publican but one supporting it and
every Democrat but one opposing it.
