Mr.. BUNDY said:


commands so large q share OF
public consideration, and
about which there are so many
shades OF opinion, as the gen.
eral subject OF the finances In
this country. There are almost
as many theories for its adjust
ment and settlement as there
are members of this House,
And therefore, it is TO be ex.
pected that | shall be in full
accord with perhaps but q
very few gentlemen here.
According to certain finan.
cial writer's on this subject,
there is only one view to be
taken. The assertion made by
their followers Is that we have
but one currency, or we ought
TO have bat one; that gold and
silver constitute the currency
OF the world, and therefore that
it is the duty oil the Govern
ment OF the United States, by
appropriate legislation, a. rap
idly as possible, and wilhou,
regard to the effect upon the
great interests OF the masses.
10 get back to what IS called
The worlds currency; and the
road by which they intend TO
reach 1t is through contraction
a =
Now, one OF the main things
to be accomplished by the
Government has been effected;
that is, whatever the national
circulation shall be, it shall be
of such quality as to entltle i,
to universal circulation, and
have UNIFORM value through
out the country. No', sir, two
things, therefore. have been
accomplished; one is that the
sovereign power OF the country
has determined what The CIR
culating medium in the Uulted
States shall be, and the same
power has clothed it with such
attributes that it has a uniform
value all over the country;
and in these particulars no
government has been more
fortunate IN providing Tor ils
people a currency of such
value and stability Tor so long
"a period. E-
The remaining question, so
far as that feature of the sub
ject 10 he discussed is concern.
ed, is as TO its quantity; and
here, perhaps, Is the only de-
batable question that is con-
nected with it. IL is affirmed
on the part Of the contrac,ion-
lists that We not only have a
sufficient quantity bat that We
have a redundancy. Now, 1
take ii that there are two
modes by which We can de
mine, and by which the
people themselves can deter
mine, as TO the proper condi.
lion OF this branch Of The ques-
li0n. The first is by com rari
son; a comparison Instituted
as to The quantity Of the cur
rency or the circulating me.

by other governments Tor their
people. The country that we
have, perhaps, more to do with

other on the globe Is that oI

should look and see what she
