SNAIL BILLS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-The attention Of Secre-
tary Sherman was called to the newspaper dis
oussion about the withdrawal of the one and two
dollar United States notes md he said this un~
founded statement was periodical. Fully year
ago it was stated by some paper, and actually
had the effect to cause an unnatural demand tor
small bills. There was no foundation for the
statement other than that having one years
supply of ones and twos on hand the Bureau of
more until the supply could be reduced. No
order was issued to the treasurer to
limit the issue Of ones and twos. but
they were Issued to everybody who demanded
them The Secretary said that he had noticed
that several papers, about once d month would
bHrk ut this old hole like Beechers dog Noble,
The truth is that no order has ever been made
for their withdrawal They are issued like
other money whenever they are required, and
any holder nf o demand against the United
States is ordinarily paid in the denominatiinn
law, after the first of January. no bills Of less
BY National Banks. and no doubt If
the 3d., and % United States, notes
were withdrawn it would make place for
more silver. He thought, however. the public
at large ought to have the option to take either
form Of money gold. silver or paper Of any
denominAtion-coined or printed That, in his
OPINION, is the best way TO secure the largest
circulation. He said that il the chief end of iife
was to secure the circulation Of silver money it
might be forced into, cir euation by Withdraw
ing the ones and twos. But he did not see why
the peope should be denied the use Of such
notes If they want thern, nor why silver money
should be made unpopu ar by being forced into
circulation to the exclusion of more convenient
money.
