The President renews his recon-
mendation for the retirement of the
ereenbacks. We hope Congress will
take no step in this disrection, till q
bill is passed to provide . substitute
that will meet the situation. When
that comes up, the wisdom of letting the
currency alone, will We think, be made
apparent to all. The President has
been overpersuaded by Mr.. Gage, the
Secretary Of the Treasury. The people
want the greenbacks, and would rather
have them than National bank Lotes
or gold-especially If the bank notes
only have the banks back of them. The
National bank notes are now redeemable
in preenbacks. If the greenbacks are
retired, the National Bank notes must
be redeemable in gold. This will pre-
sent q new and perplexing and doubtful
issue. 1t will be venturing on danger

retain Manila and the island Of Luzon,
