I'tace brought healing in its wing-, so as concerned c-mi Oierce and public ci edit genei allv . I'.ut it brought no relief to the currency, Kx tlnnge between the East and the West, find part of the Sou'h, still fluctuated from 5 to 25 pei cent, Inducicgthe heavy grievance, uniorigst others, of unequal taxation o the people, and of an unavoidable, discrimination by the Government in it conduct to its creditors; the effect of which was, that a portion of the people vere taxed one-fourth more than other portions, and a part cf the public crediors aid one fourth less of their due than was paid to the rest. The Hegration cf the currency by the oer h-ue of State Hanks, when there existed no National Hank to check them, was then aptly descr ibed , by a distinguished statesman of the South, as a leprosy cn the body politic What epi thet can we apply to the state of tilings
which might be expected to occur in the event ot the destruction cf the present Hank of the United States with establishing another in its place? In the year 1016. the cumber of local Banks that generated tins 'leprosy' was two hundred and sixty. IJow many such Hanks are there now? We really cannot say; but we liau' Hfii a list of four hundred ani zeventj Instead of beim? any better ofl than before the felted Slates Hank was established, we shall have confusion worse confounded; a Hable of hanks, utleiing an innumerable variety of notes. Considering this increased multiplicity cf banking institutions for the present, only in lelemice to the fi-cal operations ot the Government, it may he remarked that, although the Government can only em

a! r,.)iori on the first ot Su.;h are the facilities
which the local Hanks are calculated to a fiord the Government in the collection, transfer, and disbursement of the revenue Without some general regulation of currency and exchange, we should gradually slide back into thelough from which the Constitution enabled the Government of the Union to emerge. By that instrument the several States are forbidden to coin money; and ( when they were forbidden also to issue hills of credit, it was supposed that the power of issuing such bills, and of regulating the currency, was exclusively conferred on the General Government. As the States, have been permitted to exercise the power of indirectly issuing bills of credit, it is a duty, from which the General Government cannot absolve itself, to prevent this exercise of power hy the States trom becoming the means ofshaking asunder that union of the Constitution to consolidate. The only check upon the over-issue of local bills of credit that can be effectual, must be of the nature of that now existing, through the instrumentality of a National Hank This was the expedient resorted toby the framersofihe Constitution them selves, who occupied conspicuous stations in the First Congress of the United States, and in the chief Executive office If a

How long can a currency be maintained, in which tour hundred and seveuty banks issue paper ad libitum, the only check up d their issues heing removed! How long before unlimited issues will produce infinite detei toialiou? We see even now. with this check in salutary operation, how impatient they are un-ier its restraint. The United States Hank is accused, at this moment, of oppressing the State Banks. What has it done to call down this denunciation? Why, we are told 'it is tuknZ specie out of the State Hanks or, in

the Pmnk ot the United States, so tar as it
had been cxeited in this respect, has had the ben ti-ial effect of retaining the specie in the country. How little the Safety Fund Slate Hanks of N. York had to spare was shown by the latest official returns to which we have access, (as quoted in cur last number) theii amount of specie being It 9s than 1,800, 000 with a circulation of $12,215,000 (more than six to one) of their notes. A eingle packet ship has heietofore carried to Eeglind an amount equal to one-third of the whole amount of specie thus reported. What terror and alarm would not
such a shipment produce now! This by j
the way. Without any check upon the J I5anks but their ovn discretion, how long would it be before a common interest a-! rose to prevent the local Ranks from pre9 j t-ing each other; or, in plainer language. before there was a reciprocal agreement, the result of mutual inteiest, to cease al together to pay specie? All speculation on this subject is superceded by a reference to historical evidence. We know what has happened before: we know that, under similar cue urnstaucee, it is more than likely to happen now. There are some very wot thy people who think, that, however the Ranks may be managed, the Government will still be able through the power of its depositee, to collect and disburse its revenue with rut depreciation .
