A Letter from the Secretary of the

With reference to Judge KelIey's recent
speech on resumption, in which that gentleman
said that we have $7OO, 100000 to redeem, with
only S65 200 600 of gold to redeem it with, Sec.
rotary Sherman has written the following letter,
which contains points worthy of attention:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT., WASHINGTON,
March 8, 1878.-DEAR SIR: The extract which
You quote from Kelley's speech is but part Of
the dlatr'bes which such men as Kelley have
used to excite the popular mind and create a
war between capital and labor.
The amount of United States notes to be re-
deemed is less than $3.50 ,000, 000 of which more
than $50,0O0,000 are constantly in the Treas
ury 10 some form. The $65, ZOO, 900 available are
now neatly 500 000, 900, with some months
further to accumulate. The silver bill in one
respect makes resumption easier by broadening
the basis Of coin resumption.
What is driving the people to pauperisp (,
ETC., is the insane warfare upon capital, which
destroys confidence aud prevents prudent men
from embarking in new enterprises. Gould
anyone expect sensible people, having property
or money, to embark it in the hazards of trade
In the face of such appeals as are now quite
common. and of which this is specimen?
AT this moment our country is more prosper
Gus than any in the world, though many are
idle and out of employment. What is needed
most Is confidence in the stability of values.
and this can only be secured by resumption
oil payment IN coin. Very truly yours
