No. VI.
Mr., EDITOR: In former numbers
l have tried TO give the pros and
cons of two classes of what may be
considered the safest and most per-
feet of all paper money yet used
by man. Allow me briefly to re-
capitulate.
The greenback is a constitutional
national money, but it is not full
legal tender, and was not issued
upon security, consequently it is
not n representative of value as all
money should be, and its redcmp-
ton by Government bonds which
took place was an after thought.
The +" National Bank" money
was loaned upon security, but it is
not national money, it is only
local corporation issue of notes
which are not legal tender, and
in true sense, is not money at all,
but custom accepts it as money.
The greenback, with all its i'm
projections, General Grant says:
{" 1t is the best money ever de-
vised," as good AS gold wherever
known. If our island Government
should improve its present bank by
the passage of Horner's National
Banking Bill, and issue money as
that bill provides, none of the OBJ
jections urged against the Ameri-
can greenback or its National Bank
note could be brought against it, as
it would be national money,
full legal tender, and secured by
Government bonds at 80 per cent.
of their gold value, or upon bullion
or improved real estate, and cir
culated by loaning for an interest
to anyone who could produce the
legal security. The money being
thus secured, it could no more be
deprecated than mortgage could
be deprecated that was secured by
a durable property worth moro
than the face of the mortgage in
United States gold coin.
Can anyone point to q depre-
ciated currency thus secured? The
history of the civilized world af-
fords no example.
This then would be the first
money ever issued, secured, circu-
lated and redeemed upon a sound
business base.
Is this deniable from any exist
ing state of facts2
