can believe for moment that we can keen
gold in general circulation here or can evan
hoard and hold enough out of circulation as a
redemption fund sufficient to float fourth
part of our present paper currency. [ take the
average of several estimates which show an
annual drain for debts and expenditures abroad
of not less than two hundred and thirty-fiy q
millions of dollars annually and massing tie

sum OF $200000,000 going abroad on an inexo.
rable annual demand. Nhw the ignoring of
this fact is the fatal blunder or wrong of the
resumptionists. The balance of the trade in
our favor has never in any one year equalled
this foreign drain, md for the past six years
has averaged only one-tentn or 1t, or about
$20000,000 annually.
After the panic and before the passage of the

by the resumption law, but accompanied with
provision for the destruction OF grrenbacks

| NATIONAL BOARD OF TRADE.
Repeal of ihe Navigation Laws Advo-
cated,

cAte0.
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 22.-The National Board
of Trade reassembled this morning. A motion
was adopted for the admission of delegates ac-
credited by the Board Of Trade of Portland,
Oregon.
The debate was resumed on resolution sub
mitted by the Boston Board of Trade for the
removal OF disabilities from the ship-building
and ship-owning interests of the country.
The debate was upon the resolutions intro
duced by Mr.. Hills Of Boston, as follows:
Resolved, That in the judgment of the Ma
tional Board of Trade, the navigation laws of
the United States, which forbids registration
under the American flag 10 foreign citizens,
have not only failed to yield the advantage ex-
pected from them to the American shipbuild-
ing class for whose benefit they were directed,
but have also contributed to a serious decline
and almost threatened extinction of the Amer
lean ship-owning interest and the ocean carry
ing trade of the United States.
Resolved, That the immediate repeal of these
laws, by giving encouragement to American
citizens to become ship-owners and to engage
in the commerce of the country, would conduce
also to the permanent prosperity of the ship
builders of the United States.
Resolved, That the immediate repeal of these
laws would offer the best inducement which
the government could hold out to American cit
liens to enter into competition with citizens of
other countries for proper share of the vast
steam traffic of the Atlantic ocean, now carried
on almost exclusively under other flags than
our own.
Resolved, That when the customs tariff of
the United States comes before Congress for
consideration and revision, care should be TAX
