nesu1nption.--specle and Circulation.

Editors Dispatch: In your editorial
this morning you speak contemptuously
OF the opinion OF Mr.. Colgate that the
Government dare not attempt to give gold
in exchange for greenbacks (miscalIed re.
sumption) until there is gold or silver in
the Treasury equal to the amount Of green
backs in circulation; and yet that opinion
is very generally held by those who have
mad personal experience in the business OF
finance. ! have been engaged in banking
business in its various forms forabouttwenty
years, and my opinions on such subjects
have been formed after patient thought and
study and wide observation, and not only
think, but I know, that no government,
no matter how rich or strong, can maintain
the exchange OF specie for its notes without
having sum in coin equal to the amount Of
paper in circulation, and any one who
would argue the contrary because bank
can maintain circulation in excess Of its
specie is too ignorant Of the subject to I'M
derstand its principles. | would rs soon
attempt to convince John Jasper that the
world moves. This may be very dogmatic
assertion, but it is my opinion, so fully de-
monstrated to my understanding that I
could not express it more modestly without
pretence. I suppose you will ridicue me
until vince, but cannot help it unless T.
deny my faith or keep silence when / hear

The New York Tribune reproduccs q
cuotation from the London Economists
comment upon Mr. CHAsE's plan for rails
ins money to carry on the war. The Econ
omiSt said:
1t IS utterly out of the question, in our
Judgment, that the Americans can obtain,
either at home or in Europe, anything like
the extravagant sums they are asking-for
Europe won't lend them; America cannot.
The London Times, after Mr.. CHASE had
borrowed s1,lOO,OOO,0o0 within two years,
said OF his operations:
Wha. strength, what resources, what vi
tality, what energy, there must be in q ma
tioB-that is able to ruin itself on scale so
transcerdent and magnificent.
Upon this the Tribune has this to say:
The :. ruin y is so far complete that S347, :
S4S,712 in legal tenders and 1892, 237 ,991 in
less than is common in exchange between
different cities, and was common before the
war on notes OF even the hest State banks at
any distance from the place Of redemption,
although ut that time less than S200,000,090
was in circulation. The bank-notes are
equally good IN any part Of the country.
The legal tenders would to-day command
fully as high price il they were not a
legal tender; and we have reached the
point at which any slight pressure in the
money market will draw into active use as
money all that may be required OF nearly
$500, O0O,0 of specie now in the country.
II reviving business calls for any expansion
the whole or any part Of this sum may thus
be added to the circulation without shock
or danger. Indeed, it already begins to flow
into use.
At this magnificent victory Of the nation
Democratic as we'll as Republican bankers
assist; Democratic as we'll as Republican
merchant rejoice; and even Mother Eng
land will send most hearty greeting. We
believe il no longer possible to repeal the
resumption act, or in any other way to pre-
vent the return Of prosperity. In every
direction the prospect brightens.

stated In our respondents letter. we
considered the assertion absurd, and still SO

sion had it been advanced by our core
srondent q S.,,' for our knowledge OF him
aud his generally weli-informed mind upon
financial subjects would have dictated q
more decorous notice.
Nevertheless we must say that we consider
any statement that to resume there must De
as much specie in the hands OF the redeem
ing agency as there Is paper for redemption
in circulation IS . great error. II IS not
possible to put an end to all. use OF paper
money, and to gather it oil up for return Tor

gold nominallT at par. tits Just as unlikely
that such a thing could be rs that every debt
could be paid in day and all the paper
money liberated from commerce and put
into the hands OF the collector, that he may
demand payment therefor.
1t is impossible with currency such as
exists in this county that it shall all De
converted info coin in any short period.
No combination that is imaginable, much
less any that is practicable, could pr'hg
about this marvellous demand.
There never was resumption in TINS
country when the banks bad an amount OF
coin equal to their paper in circulation
and no man can be so unreasonable as to
suppose that under the present conditions
specie will be called for in The. same degree
that it was wont to be in those days. The
paper now is satisfactory TO everybody, and
bears no discount to pay the cost OF its cot
lection and return for redemption. For
merly bank-notes were generally at a dis
count. and the brokers made money by BUY
ing them and returning them for redemp'
ton.
Ear less specie is requisite now for re-
sumption than at that day. Does the nation
owe nothing to the banks and the Govern
ment? Are not all debts to the banks an
the Government payable in notes? How
in the namc OF common sense are the notes
that are always needed for this purpose
alone to become demand for specie.
COLGATE was piling up the difficulties IN
the way OF resumption, and on this point
his statement was Of no force.
