Constitution. They could then retifrn
to their work and do all, that was nee
essary 10 be done In the remainder of
the seventy-6ve days which is allotted
to them for their session. These are
/ matters of detail, which might be more
or less changed in the wisdom of the
Legislature. But when you get your
bank established. what. are you going
to bank on? This question was asked
me the other day by a national bank
man. / said: I will answer your
question by asking you another
What DO ycu bark ont He replied:
We bank on Government bonds. Yes,
said |, the national banking law re-
quires you to put mp Government
bonds 10 secure your circulation;
500, 600 10 bonds for every $50, 600
in ci ,culation. You may have cir
culation Of 500, 900 and half million
to. three>quarters Of deposits for which
there Is no security whatever, except
what there may be in the notes you
have discounted. The State Bank
would have the same security for its
depositors, with theaaditional security
for its circulation that it win be re-
ceivable for all taxes and other dues
to the State
Mr. Calhoun maintained thata State
currency, receivable for taxes and all
dues to the State 10 the extent of four
or five dollars for every one Of revenue
going to the State, or in other words,
that an annual. income to the State
from its revenues Of 81, 100000 would
easily float such. a currency to the ex-
tent Of four or five millions.
But If thisis not satisfactory bank
ing capital, authorize the issuance of
bonds by the bank, pledging the prof
its Of the bank, first for the payment
Of the interest on them and fer the
establishment of sinking fund, and
there will be no difficulty in selling
enough TO raise all the capital the
Bank VIII need until it establishes a
credit Of its own Upon which to oper>
ate. These would be bonds of the
Bank as of any other State corporation
upon which and their coupons the
Bank could be sued. All constitutions
al questions about suing astate would
thus be avoided. The officers of the
Bank will see to the protection of its
credit by the prompt payment Of the
interest op its bonds. The old Bank
had 81, 500, 900 of bonds, which it was
authorized to sell in order to give it a
banking capital. But before the
Cashier could get to New York and
sell half of them he was stopped by
the President aud Directors, they tell
ing him that they had credit enough
to carry on their banking operations
without selling any more of the bonds.
He only sold 81 100000 of the bonds
to establish tie old Bank. These,
too, are matters Of detail which will
be wisely attended to VIXEN the State
has determined to establish tie Bank.
Then the best banking capacity Of The
State will be invoked and such a char
ter will be granted as will insure sue
cess to the Bank and prosperity to the
people. l have already conferred
with some Of the oldest and most sue
cessful fnanciers of the State, and
they entertain no doubt of the practi-
cability and feasibility of thesrcoessful
re-establishment of a Safe Bank

COL. BURCH AT GALA6TIN.

IIsm ire American.
Gallatin, July Col Rurch spoke
here to-day to a very large'and remark
ably attentive audience. in his speech
he covered the same grounds that
were embraced in his letter of last
week. Upon the prseticahility of re-
establishing State Bank he was ques-
toned, and that portion of his speech
| give you as fully as ] cap before the
departure of the train. He said:
The law of Congress imposing a
tax Of 10 per cent. on State Bank cir
culation is a stumbling-block in the
way Of establishing,,State Banks, and
it must be removed There are bills
now pendingin both houses of Congress
to repeal that tax, and ! am Informed
with great hopes Of their passage and
the repeal Of the tax before the 9TH of
March next. One Ct those bills was
introduced by Gov. Harris, IN the
Senate; another by Senator Butler, of
S)uth Carolina, and one by Gen.
Whitthorne. The New York Times,
the leading Republican paper in the
East, is now earnestly advocating the
repeal of this tax. The prospects are
bright for it. If the present congress
should not repeal ii, let us re-establish
the Bank and test the constitaticnality
ofthis prohibitory Imposition, andkeep
up the agitation until it is abolished
by legislation or judicial decision.
Some ask, is the establishment Of the
Bank practicable even after therepeal
of this tax?
If it is not, why have the people
been demanding the repeal Of the 10
percent. tax on State bank circula>
ton? Why have our Boards of Trade
and Chambers of Commerce Joined in
this demand? Why have Bills been
introduced in both houses OF Congress
to repeal this tax ? If the re-establish-
ment Of the bank IS not practicable
after the repeal Of the tax on circula-
ton, then have We all been engaged
in making demands upon Congress
which were not only idse brs foolish.
Those who tell us that the tax on cir
culation ought to be repealed and at
the same time speak Of the impracti-
cability of re-establishing the Bank
remind me Of the mother who gave her
darling daughter" permission to go
out to swim. You remember the
quatrain;

here as to Col. Burch's state bank
proposition and as to bis plan of or
