and encourage all such efforts: that no char
tiers should be granted, except on the princi-
ole of dividing supplies after paying expenses

ings; the retracipg of the steps lsoking to
forced specie payments and the substitution
of full legal-tender paper currency, making
the rate of interest the measure Of its vol
