fHE SUBJECT Of the currency. 10 which
repeated aliusion has recently been made in
these columns-and more especially in reference
to the importation Of deJased coins-was ra,Lcr
P%oin,edly brought TO public attention or thurs
day morning last by the action Of the bank of
Bishop & Co, in refusing TO take Chilean soils,
Peruvian pesos and Mexican halves Qate coinage)
except at ten per cent. d~iscounf As our
readers have been made aware, the question Of
the proper valuation Of these coins has been
fully discussed in the chamber Of commerce.
and a committee appointed to confer with gov
eminent as to the proper course TO be pursued.
Government however appears to have acted
with the same apathy and lack of appreciation
Of It's duty in this matter that has characterized
1t throughout, and, failing to move, the bank
has acted in self-defease by precipitating that
which was inevitable. Three months ago the
government, in common with everybody else in
business circles, had notice Of the importation Of
the debased coin in question, and had only to
then fix its rate of discount to have at once put
a stop to its coming. As it is, there are now
say fifteen to twenty thousand dollars in soils,
&C., in circulation in the country, (aside from
the amount in the treasury mostly in the hands
of people who can i'll afford to lose ten cents on
the dollar. The wlsest and most equitable
course for the government to adopt in this
matter will be to Immediately give public notice
that within a specified time,-say thirty days.
all certain named coins will be exchanged at the
Treasury for current money. The general
treasury is the creature of the general public,
and the loss can best be borne and be least felt
when il falls there.

IL THE Assembly, during the week past,
there has, as usual, been little of note accom-
plishedI a lengthy debate was evoked on the
subject of Chinese immigration, massy of the
native members being evidently fercely opposed
to it, and declaring that they should not vote a
dollar more for bringing those people here. On
Thursday, the usual fisheries amendment bill
was indefinitely postponed, after a two days
battle; and yesterday a bill to reduce the license
on boats from So to 81 per annum, was after
careful Elaboration and exhaustive debate, finally
passed. On the same day the following resoln-
ton, introduced by the Hon. Mr.. Preston. was
adOpted-and this may perhaps be regarded as
the forerunncr Of some definite action by the
government ON the currency question
RESOLVED, That the Committee on Finance be
requested to ascertain of what kind of coin the
money now in the Treasury consists, and for what
purposes and under what circumstances the same
was received by the government, and to report
thereon forthwith
