THURSDAY, JAW. 3t, 1867.

The Snpremc Court & Congress Certain rebol-Bympatbising'papers arc very fearful the denunciation of

Supremo Court by what they call the "Radicals," will bring about civil war and vetj these very same papers are daily and weekly filled with the meanest, basest, most cowardly and scurrillous attacks upon the Congress of the country—denouncing the members as "traitors," "fanatics," "Jacobins,1'"murderers,""notorious thieves' and many other choice epithets, carefully cullcd from tho pot-houso vocabulary. To speak disrespectfully of the Supremo Court is monstrous in the eyes of these papers .but to denounce the Congress, a co'ordinato branch of the Government, clected directly by the poople, and representing tho will of thoso who elected them, is not only the

innocent amusement on earth

but evidence of exalted patriotism! Such is Copporhead consistency. Were tho Supremo Court to ronder a decision adverse to the claim9 of traitors who havo recently beon in arms against their country, it would soon be compelled to share with Congress the showers of filth daily poured on that body from thoso literary slopbuckets. This all know, and are propared to take their censure and praise for just what they mean, namely, so much sympathy for traitors. There has not been an act done, or a word said in tho last six years in favor of traitors that they did not praise, regardless of any other feature it might possess. And just as certain aro they to censure everything that is said or done against them. Congress is daily denounced, simply because it will not permit perjured traitors lu tnko seaIK •in'that'body and aid in making laws for the country and tho Supreme Court is lauded because it has released those villains from some of the penalties imposed upon them by Congress for their treason and "infidelity to solemn oaths.

Truly, Copperhead editors havo a very exalted idoa of the "dignity of journalism." Oh! tho double-refined hypocrites!

Our Financial Situation. Some weeks ago we published an article in reference to our financial situation, in which we maintained that a financial crisis is imminent, that Congress is powerless to provent it, and that nothing but the mo3t rigid household economy could even alleviate the coming trouble. In a portion of these views, wo aro glad to find ourselves supported by a journal so able and influential as the New York Tribune.— The following article from tho Washington correspondent of that paper, we think full of wisdom, and commend it to tho careful perusal of all our readers. When wo know a, storm is coming, it is the part of wisdom to prepare to meet it:

itself that

it is

tho gigantic expenditures of the Government, and not Paper Money, that has given prosper^ to our industry during the war, and that since then that industry has been employed to fill a void created by tho war, the thing most needed for the country is the conviction that it is entoring a period of severe financial trial, and that no contrivances of legislation can avert it.

As yet it refuses to look this unwelcome fact in the face. But we must come to this point. It is the only solid groundwork on which wo havo to stand. We aro not going to pass from a tremendous war to a stato of peace without a shock. It is not in tho nature of things. It has not been our own experience. It has not been the experience of other nations. Wo have only to rcflect that wo have just lost a customer for tho products of our industry, who has swallowed five hundred, six hundred, seven hundred millions of dollars annually, to know that that loss will leavo a glut in tho market, and that that glut must be followed bv a fall in prices, and that this fall in prices must bring stagnation to trade (for nobody buys on a falling market), loss to all vendors, and ruin to many. This cessation of demand, of itself creates a pressure, a revulsion, a collapse, a break down in tho mercantile world. There is no help for it except in the substitution of a now customer or now customers to take tho place of tho old. But theso never can come fast onough in tho natural order to prevent such results. And thus their avoidanco is impossible. This country, and every

reed to do is to rouse itself from the vain delusion, the torpor and sloth of the supposition that wo can legislate ourselves out of the essential difficulties and sacrifices that inhere in our condition, and more especially must it discard tho belief that tho miserable expedient of an excessivo and irredeemable paper circulation can be made an efficient means of relieving the country from tho burdens imposed .and tho conditions created by an expensive and exhausting war.

It is 60 difficult to say anything about paper money that has not been said before, that ono involuntarily shrinks from tho topic. Tho man who could invent a brief set of terms exposing- at once tho virtues and vices of an excessivo paper circulation, showing when and where it is good, and when and where it is bad, would iio a public benefactor. The public

mind is always in a haze on the subject, and as it cannot or will not study tho question through instructive es says, it seems essential that somo formula of the truth should bo invented to bore through and lot daylight in upon tho general understanding.— Then there is this unhappiness. In their attempts to elucidato tho subject, even our best and most thoroughly grounded writors advance very misty and equivocal positions, whilo thoso who know_ nothing abont the subject arc always darkening counsel by words without knowledge. Lot not this remark bo taken as a reproach. To say one knows nothing of finance, is no moro than to say that ho knows nothing of law or surgery. It is no reproach to the man who has no taste or talent for either, or who has never made either a study, •But oven if theory is discarded, our experience is amply snffioiont to show that our paper monoy system is a fountain of mischief. Wo know that it prompts speculation and supports it in^a way most injurious to consumers that it dpranges regular trade that it is th^ food of tho gamblers, of the Sto^k Exchange, and that it involves overy kind of business in perplexity. It makes the return of regular industry uncortain, and by so doing discourages its exorciso. Its fluctuations in its relations to gold and silver constantly disturb prices, and area daily and hourly nuisance by making every act of trade a lottery,

and

ovory bar

gain a gambling transaction. If wo may not undertake tho tedious task of exposing errors, and endeavoring to defino specifically what is difficult of brief definition, we can at tho least hold fast to a few clear ideas of what our paper circulation has not done and cannot do. We havo already seen it has not created tho individual wealth accumulated during the war, and vve know it cannot create consumers. It is powerless to counteract the mighty laws of supply and demand, even to tho extent of maintaining exorbitant prices, as has been showil in the fall of leading articles of consumption already enumerated.

The difficulty is that even tho89 simpl(\ jguuryiii eopie

not

RGO

groat growth of individual wealth along with the expansion of the paper circulation and they will insist seeing in tho two nothing but cause and effect. They opposo tho contraction of tho currency on the ground that if it is contracted business will be reduced and prices fall. They are not contented with this, but go further and hold that if tho currency is not diminished, that trade will not suffer and prices will not fall. And herein iB their vital mistake. What is wanted to keep trade active and business good, and prices high, is domand and Consumption, and this is just what paper money is powerless to furnish. Unless the demand for commodities is kept up, trade must slacken, business must decrease, and pricos must fall. Thus if this nation is not going to use as much and destroy as much of tho products of industry in peace as it has dono in war, these results are sure to

happon.

This, it woul'.I seem, must be appiront to everybody. Whether thoro is any dimunition of the circulating medium or not, it is inevitable that wo must havo a period of depression and Prostration. Upon this period we are onlv just beginning to enter. As yet there is no ovci" 'uciming pressure upon Congress for relief, and there may not bo during this session. But it is sure to como in the end with a tremendous clamor. The now system^of National banks will furnish a leverago such as was never yet brought to bear on that body.

COMPARISONS

tho habit of Con

gress to resist great pressure, and it is to be proved that its charactor has undergone a change. On tho assumption that paper money has dono tho country so much good, it will naturally be urged that it should havo moro. At tho least, it will be insisted that it shall havo no less. And when it is seen, as it will bo, that prices continue to fall and that trade gets more and more depressed, tl^p inovitablo result of our transition from a state of war to a state of peace, will be still pointed to as an evidence of the necessity of the mnedy proposed.

If it wero not for the mischief arising from deJay, it might be worth while to wait tho progress of events under the present inflated stato of the civrency, without enforcing any of the plans for itf) di"iiiiUtion, for tho purpose of domoRiji.rat.ing tnat we cannot be saved fror.i loss U/?d depression and stagnation arising from diminished demand and the fa.'l op prices, through the agency of a depreciated currency. But the country cannot afford this loss of time simply to refute false ideas and erroneous theories.

In brief, the nation Iras a lesson bofore it, which it has very slightly studied, and it is h'gh time it set about it. In consequence of tho war, the laws of trade and finance, which can alone be safely reliod on to govern tho currency, havo been superseded by Congressional legislation. The oponing of the now year is coincident with a new phase of our experience. It finds the currency at its full, and a marked fall in tho prico of commodities, with all its threatening consequences. This opens anew all tho questions of trado and finance. Is it not time wo wero thinking of remitting them to the control of their own natural laws?

NOT ODIOUS.—Several of

tho papers havo boon running a parallel between Gcorgo Washington and Jeff. Davis. They waste much paper and columns of type, without striking tho true parallel. Here is tho idea advancod by the Butte Bccord in regard to it:— "George Washington—First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen." "Jeff. Davis—First in rebellion, first in petticoats, and last in the jail of his countrymen."

Mr. John Mulder, of Eastmanvilie, Michigan, has a son agod only thirteen years, who is five feet, olevon and onehalf inches iu height.

Financial.

On tho 18th instant, Senator Hendricks presented two petitions from business men of this city with tho following romarks "I present two petitions, feignod.by business men of tho city of Indianapolis, reciting that 'tho further reduction of tho voltimo of tho curionc}* at present would prove injurious to tho banking, manufacturing and mercantile intcrosts of the country, and wo'd entail suffering upon nearly every member of tho community cxprosBing the opinion 'that if such curroncy shall now be contracted, wo aro near to the time when the lawful obligations of citizens can not be met when the demands of the national Government together with the hoavy taxes levied by our Stato and municipal authorities, can not bo paid, and when many of our good citizens will have to submit to a confiscation of their hardearned property.' They theroforo ask Congress to refrain from tho passage of any law authorizing tho curtailment of tho national curroncy, and also to refrain from passing any law compelling all national banks, wherever located, to redeem their notes in New York, or prohibiting national banks from.paying or receiving interest on bank balances. These petitions are signed by business men of such high respectability that I feel it my duty to call the attention of the Committeo on Financo to tho subjcct. I ask their roferenco to that committeo."

Wo think wo do not exaggerate when we say that the foeling in this State is almost unanimous against a further reduction of the currency at present. Whether dictated by more comprehensivo'viows of tho principles of"finance than ordinary men can take, or not, it is very certain that tho policy of Secretary McCulloch has loft the country very straitened if not distressed, and that a very short persistence in it mustproducodisaster. Thecountry has not monoy enough to carry on its business, and it neods more rather than a reduction of tho insufficiency it has. A return tospecio payment is, no doubt, tho right thing to do, but we may stumblo if wo hurry. Five years oi superabundant curroncy lmve established a set of relations in business much moro' easy to got into than to get out of, and a rapid jerk to pull out may dislocate something. Thero are worse evils than a depreciated currency, and the distress of a people compelled to bear the loss of the difference, suddenly created, between tho values during inflation and during collapse, is ono of them. Tho man who takes property when currency is at flood tide, and pays when curroncy is at low ebb, stands a capital chance to stick in tho sand. Tho 81,000 of the lattor time is §1,500 of tho former. He must lose tho difference. Now it is evident that if the loss is plumped down upon him all at once, it may crush him. If it is let down by dogrecs ho may bear it, and tho slighter the gradations the more easily he can bear it. The Secretary seems to think tho plunge policy is the best. OzZZ in and the Vv.orst is over. As the French sa3T, "it is only tho first blow that hurts," and tho worse tho first hurts, tho less those that follow will hurt. This may not be his policy, but his reduction of the currency by several millions moro than tho act of Congress authorizes, though possibly permitted by a plausible construction, looks very liko it. It is a pretty serious measure to add to heavy taxes tho burthen of losing one-third of the valuo of all the curroncy afloat.—Indiana Journal.
