Ex-SECRETARY M'CuLLocH made a nota-
BILE speech at Woodstock on the Fourth, in
which he treated at length of the financial
question. Among other good things he said
this;
1t was after the war the foodgates were thrown
OPEN the railroad building mania prevailed and
municipal debts were incurred. There was no egti-
mate use for currency after the necessities of the
draw $4.OOO,oOO per month, and S4s, ,OOO, 900 were
Withdrawn in fourteen months without injurng
business. III this law had not been repealed the
panic OF 73 would not have occurred and the green
back party would never have been heard of. The
experience of other nations has taught the inevitable
tendency Of redundant currency to divert capital
from healthfu channels into enterprises prejudical
to meterial enterprises and good morals. There
never have been financial troubles in the Unit
ed States that we're not the result of an excess of
money and the consequent expansion Of credit.
