A commercial revulsion deprive* laborers of employment, especially la manufacturing district* And thee# will continue so long a* the trade of the country is subject to a bank credit system, bated now in so great a degree upon an uncertain and sensitive p’lUlc confidence. W# bojw t»»e pvoetin ss of the subject will not prevent oar reader* Bom penmlng the facts and argument* so dearly set forth by Mr Oaixati*. and wbioh should have an especial interest for every busmesa man The framers of the general banking law of the Htate of New York, deeply impreeeed with dangei* of an unrestrained ami uneeoured emission ol paper money, so fatal in its influence on prices, so distressing in its effects on the laboring rl-t**e*. and so subversive to those princ i>!e* of securiiy to property, which fire tho foundation of atl civil widely; have,In order to remedy th>- evil, required the deposit of stocks, and bond* and mortgages, with the Buperinteixlcbt of th# Bank ing Department, as a security lor tb# circulating hank notes; the*#securities, though many of them are unavailable in t mea of great commercial pressure*, *«oure the ultimate payment of the notes. Bom# good ha« b#«n a* hieved by this. But experienc# has shown that thiele not sufficient to pr#vent an expansion of the currency, which leads to overtrading, till overtrading again forces a con traction i~-tbu* p> oducing those aTlernations of extravagant excitement, and of fearful depression, which this country has so often experi-
enced of late years.
Th# deposits, or oaah credit* on the books of a bank, whether made In specie or bank notes, or arising from a note discounted by tbe bank, or from the collection of individual notes, or bills of exchange, are liabilities of the bank, payable on demand like bank notes in specie. The bank notes and the deposits rest precisely on the sain* basis, lor .mmeuiate payment on tbe amount of specie in the vaults. Bank note* and bank cred it* or deposits, arc convcrtable into each other at ihe pie *»ure of the possessor. W e can in no respect whatever perceive the slightest difference between the two; and the aggregate amount of credit* payable on demand standing on the books of the several banks, we can not but sonsider, therefore, as lieing part of the currency of the United States. Merchants rely for the fulfilment of their engagement* on their own resources; banks, not only on their reaourcc*, but also en the probability that their creditor* will not require ;aymcut of their demands; this probability is always increased or lessened, in proportion as ths liabilities of the bank are moderate or very great. The only efficient mode, therefore, of re striding the banks is in the amount of their loans and discounts, in reference to the capital actually paid in; and in requiring them at ths same time to have in their vau’ts a certain ratio of speola as compared to tbelr immediate liabilities—this exclusive of their circulating notes, as they have
lodged security for their payment.
The efficiency of the first provision depend* entirely on ths reduction of the maximum of loans and discount*. It is the opinion of those, ths best Informed on the suhiect, that no bank should be permitted to extend us loans, including stocks, and svery specie* of debt, beyond twice the amount of its capital. By the law of the Bute of Louisiana no bank is permitted to let its specie fall below per cent, of its immsdiato liabilities. 1 can not, thsreiore, believe that any valid oblc.dion can be made to a restriction of 2& per cent. The excessive and fatal expansions of the year* lB3A-’37, aad those of 1867, could not have taken place, bad th# maximum of loans and discounts been properly r#gulated; and tbe banks at the same time bwea com wiled to keep a Axed ratio of coin as compared to their immediate liabilities. Tbe banks of Louisiana, where they are reatralned by law, did not suspend spe
ois payment* iu 1867.
Tbe Governor of lb# State of N#w York and tbe Buperlntedent of tbe Banking Department, both urged. In tbelr oommuoicatloo# to tbe Legislature in January, 186B, tb# passage of an act Axing a minimum of ap#eto. And cortnia bank* of tba city of Nsw York, aad m*mb#rw of th# Clearing Nona# Association, at tb# oommene#m«ot of th# earn# year, foaling tb# aiesesity of having a reatralat upon tbe dlecouat lin«e of th# banks, agreed among themselvs# to keep at all tlmea 90 p#r cent, of tneir nett deposit## in coin ka tbelr vault#. Tbie 1# too n*al) aa amount; and expert sue# has also shown that several of ths banks do not consider this agreement a* binding upon them; and when there abaU arise any con siderable demand for specie, growing out of an unfavorable elafie of tb# foreign exchanges, or from any othe* cause. It will be found that nothnothlng but a legal enactment, strictly enforced, will have tbe desired effect. Also at a meeting of the said Association held in March, 1S58, it was proposed to enter into an agreement, if all concurred therein, not to allow interest on (is porite or balances of any kind. Because, as It was asserted, “a bank having committed tbe first error of paying interest on deposits, is therefore compelled, by the necessities of it* position, to mk# the second false step, and expand its op-
erations beyond all prudent bounds.
Forty of tba forty-six banks who composed tbe Association signed this agreement; thro# expressed tbelr willingness to sign It; but the three remaining, refused absolutely their ament, and tba agreement was not consummated. Let it not, however, be supposed that I state then# foots to serve as aa apofogy for myself, aad for those who think and act with me; tbe measures of reform that we propose require no apology. I believe now. at 1 always believed, that they nr# calculated to promote tbe beet Interests of tbe people; aad that those who either by tbelr aetioo In the Legislature* or the exertion of ibetr talents out of It, may contribute to remove the defoete existing In our monetary system, will have dene themselves tbe grenteet honor, and tbe Tbe suspension of specie payments in 1837 was foh in New Task an a great calamity. We learn “that a email but determined party'' viewed tbe enmmrion in Its tens light—a state #f disgrace and reproach, In which there conld be no wholesome revival of trade, aad notto be tolerated beMndtbnpenr granted by tbe Legislature. New Y«t rammed triumphantly in May. 1838. In 18A7, the banks af the cty of New York, with n epcetc reserve of only 19,808,000, loaned mm $199,-008^08| althwagh at tbe time tbe

clasess of the cotamunity; do not these prove bv 1 tbelr sad memories, that some remedy isreooired. j some check* and reforms needed? And here f | ean not but express my astonishment that a gen tisman for whom 1 have the highest regard— who* i sincerity I can not doubt—but whose judg ment. In this respect, seems to be most unaccountably perverted, expresses the opinion "that the late euspension and resumption have nmpty brought out into bo!d relief the perfection of our free lank system in it* connection with our cur-
rency.”
May 1 now venture to intrude upon vou, an allusion to my persons! feelings? Those who aeted with me. a* well as my*e f, were, In 1857, asset led and distressed by u ngenero u* appeals to our foellags? We ware amed how we could, under existing circumstances, advocate and endeavor to enforce a speedy return to specie payments— persevere in the trial ot a rash experiment, and in the pursuit of a hollow theory. Believing that the bmks were bound by the strongest legal and moral obligations to resume specie payments whenever they were able to maintain i ueb payments; that "there could be no wholesome, sound trade under a depreciated currency,” and that a restoration could as easily be effected in two mouihsa* two years, these appeals, however pain ful to leceivc, had no influence on our conduct. We had a duty to perform. Immediate relief was then, in a great degree, out of our power, and it the more becomes us now to trace the ca Unities with which we were then afflicted, and to endeavor to prevent their recurrence. It is on this principle 1 am anxious that all necessary check* and reforms should be applied to our monetary system—a system which if let alone, will again lead to ruinous fluctuations in trade, and in price* of all commodities; a system which alik# undermine# the sober habits and the moral feeling of the community; which injures the poor man in the earning* of his labor, and takes from the rich man all securiiy in his propeity, and which every succeeding convulsion must add to our inability to bear itA 1,1.

A Cartt ffrem Cwlwawl talker. Enrron Sbntinxl—Mr. Heffren's communication published ia yesterday morning’* issue of. your paper, requires a brief response from meThough my position on the question in controversy has bean given to the public, it may be well enough to add that my name was used, in coanectioo with the office of public printer, in defiance of my wishes—that I was prevailed upon to accept the nomination for that position by the declaration that such a step was necessary to the attainment of that unity among the con flicting elements of the General Assembly es aeutial to the success of the Democratic party. After the nominations were made, t e writer was urged,by tbe Democrats with whom be conversed, to leave no expedient untried to secure the election of tbe party nominees, against some of whom the Senator from W ashing ton had declared relentless hostility. It is for the Democracy of Indiana to decide whether the result of my labor— a result which crowned the Democratic party with triumph and overwhelmed the enemy in defeat and anarchy—is worthy of approval or condemnation. Mr. lleffreu charges me with having sold out the Democratic party, and bartered away, for filthy lucre, the integrity of that time-honored organization ! He inquires whether "Willard, Dunham, Dodd, Cunningham, Beech, Seely, Cookerly, and a host ot other leading Democrats” advised tbe course pursued by me la the arrangements perfected preliminary to the election? My reply is, that a part of tbe gentlemen named above, to whom could be added Cobb and Dougherty, together with many other leading Democrats, were not only consulted, but did advise and insist upon the course I pursued—a course considered necessary to the success of the ticket by the defection of the Senator from Washington—that every one of those gentlemen and, excepting four, all the Democratic members of the House of Representative*—including five out of the eight members from the Second District—censured the factious course of Mr. Heffren, and stood manfully by the officers elected, determined that one of that number should not be selected out and stricken down by a traitor ia the camp. Sustaioed then by nine tenths of the Democratic Senators and Represen tatives; by five out of eight of the Representatives from the Second District; by all the officers of State, including Athon and Cravens, from Mr. Heffren’s vicinity, and by leading Democrats from every section of Indiana, I can well afford to be denounced, as a Judas to my party, by a person whose garments are still reeking w ith the stench of the Know Nothing conclave; whose vote, when acandidate in the heated contest of ’56, fell three hundred behind the Democrat ticket, and whose isolated influence, as a Senator in the late Legislative, was thrown in favor of a anion with a faction of the enemy, by which the Agent of State and one ol the Prison Director* would have been transfered to the opposition. Of Mr. Heffren’sdesireto "reform abuses” in the public printing, after it became evident that his favorite candidate could not be elected; of bis ex iggeration of the retrenchment he wished to effect, to double the average gross amount of the cost of the public work; of his gratuitous boast that gold could not buy him, when it was generally believed that the course he pursued was designed to provoke a "bid” for his silence; of the insult he offered to a portion of his constituents, by the use of a comparison which reflects a jacobinical censure upon the head Bishop of the Catholic Church; of his puerile appeal to the people to send him to Congress as a reward for the singular service he has rendered to tbe State; of tie wholesale manner in which he disposes of charges made against his political character, denouncing them all as a tissue of falsehoods, it is unnecessary here to speak. The eaarges which I preferred against the Senator from W ashing ton were designed to exhibit tbe political treachery and moral turpitude of the man who, with the brazen effrontery of the knave, thrusts himself forward as the dictator of the policy to be pursued by the Indiana Democracy. All of those allegations cau be proved by Democrats from that Senator’s district, by the journals of the Senate, and by the statements of such men ts Hancock, Dougherty, Law head. Miller, Ac., Ac. It is useless, however, to prolong this fruitless controversy, and an apology is due to the public for what has already been said. Passing over the eccentricities of the Senator’s composition — the illustrations and quotations, the cavitals anl italics through which his literary thunder-bolts are hurled—all of which incite, at once, the amusement and pity of tbe reader, the writer will add, m conclusion, that his estimate of Mr. Heffrea has been much exaggerated—that he feels himself humiliated in having encountered a foeman possessing no discernment to realize the obligations of his position, no conscience to sting him when reminded of his treason, and no honor to lift him forth from the mire of degradation. Courting a reputation for gallantry and chivalry, he has sought, in his district and the Bute Capitol, to vindicate his pretensions by asserting, as a governing principle with himself, an utter disregard of personal safety where his integrity is assailed. Denouncing a brother Senator, a few weeks «nce, in terms characteristic of his own declamation, he answered the response of the person assailed by urging adhesion to the roles which are understood to govern the intercourse of gentlemen, and by declaring that he conld extend no further notice to a man who would not resent, through other instrumentalities than words, an assault made upon his honor. The course panned by the Sena tor from Washington toward the writer of this article entitled Urn to expect retaliation. His honor was assailed; his integrity was aspersed; his manhood was degraded^ and although possessed of this attack, ia private, previous to its publication, his resentment, to the disgrace of his boasted courage, finds relief through a published conglomerate of noose no* and personal abuse. Having thus convicted himself, by the rale# to which he professes allegiance, cf cowardice and contempt of tbe usage# which govern the intercourse of men of honor, be cannot be held to accountability for hie conduct, and will receive no further notice from me.
