ny Mr.. Jones, Senator from Neya

@- Mr.. Jones, Senator from Neva-
da, said in his place the other day.
Gold had all the requisites as a
measure of value. The human heart
is set upon it, and it will command
the services of everybody. A piece
of paper merely said The honor Of
this government is Pledged and the
custodians of the government refuse
to take any steps to redeem it. Thi.
currency, instead of being the spade
of the husbandman, was the dice box
of the gamblers"

Messrs. Gordon, Brownlow, Nit
chell, Sprague, Conover. Ransom and
Wright, who would have voted fol
the bill, were paired with Messrs.
Bayard, Flanagan, Boutwell,, Morril,
of Maine, Stevenson, Stockton and
Ed nunds, who would have voted
against it. It will be seen that six
Democrats and one Liberal voted for
and seven Democrats and one Liberia
against the bill. The bill provides
for an issue of $4O0,0Oo,OO0 of legal
tender notes, which is $lS,OOo,OOl
more than is now in circulation, and
an increase of$i6,OO0,OOU of natona,
bank notes. The entire increase OF
paper circulation over the amount OF
circulation prior to the panic Is
500, 900, 600. The whole amount
authorized is $500, 100000, exclusiv,
Of $50 100000 of fractional currency
which is within SlOo,OoO,OOo OF
the largest amount which Is the most
extravayant OF the session. The biII
amounts practically to free bank

REDEMPTION on a basis ofS4Oo, ooo,oot
of legal tenders: for it is not supposed
that within "A twelvemonth at least
the limit of the $46,OOo,oOO increase
will restrain in any manner the
issue of bank currency to those who
will depoSt the amount Of bonds re-
qllred for security.
