amendment providing for tile tilo construction of tho the fort st phillip canal and its maintenance a a national highway passed the house to 80 senator jones has obtained permission from president grant to publish the following memorandum prepared by the latter tx ex essing pi hh hii views on financial questions 1 it I believe it is a high and plain duty to a pele specie basis at the earliest practicable day not only it in compliance with legislative and parry party pledge 0 3 but as a step indispensable to lasting national prosperity I 1 believe further that the time tinie lias has come when this can be done or at leat least begun with less embarrassment embarras ment to every branch of industry than abany future time after a r resort eort has been had llad to unstable stab leand and temporary expedients expedient sto to stimulate unreal prosperity and speculation on a basis other than coin the recognized medium of exchange throughout the commercial world the rhe particular modo selected to bring about a restoration of the desired standard is not of so much consequence as that some adequate plan be devised the time has arrived when currency should be exchangeable for coin at par n nud rid iid the plan adopted should be beregi ri rigi rigl gl A ij adhered to it is not probable that eliat any legislation suggested by me would prove a acceptable to both bratic branches hes bes of congress gre 44 and indeed a full discussion might shake my own faith inthe details etall of ady any plan I 1 might propose I 1 will vill however ventu venture re to state the general features of the action which abich teerns deerns to me advisable and the financial platform on which I 1 would stand and any departure from which would be in a spirit ol of concession and harmony in deference to conflicting opinion opinions to effect this it would be necessary to authorize tile the issue of bonds payable in gold goi bearing such interest as would command par in gold tr to be uie put out by the tile treasury only in sach saen sums as should from time to time be needed for the purpose of redemption sueh suell legislation would ensure a return to sound financial principles in two yair ya ir and would in my judgment workless work less hardship to the debtor interest than is likely to come from putting off the day of ninal finai reckoning it must be borne in mind too that the creditor interest had its day of disadvantage also when our present financial system was brought in by the supreme needs of the nation at tile the time 1 I would further provide that from and after the date fixed for red led emption redemption no bills whether of national banks or of the U S returned to the treasury trea treasury sury surk to be ex bed ged fon fan new bills should be replaced refaced by bills of less denomination than thaul ten ton dollars do iiara llara and that in one year after resumption all bills of less than five dollars should be withdrawn from circulation and in two years all bills of less than ten dollars should be withdrawn tile advantage or of this would be the strength given to the country against a time or of depression resulting from war failure of crops or any other cause by keeli keeping ng always in the hands bands of the large supply or of the precious metals with all smaller transactions conducted in coin many millions or of it would be kept in fit constant use and of course prevented from leaving the country by giving gold active employment however its presence can it seems to me be secured and ana aua panics and depres devres depressions which have occurred periodically in times of nominal specie payments if they cannot be i wholly prevented can at least be greatly mitigated indeed I 1 question ues aes guestion whether it would have teen been found necessary to depart from the standard of specie in the fhe trying days which gave birth to the first legal tender act had bad the country taking the ground of no small bills as earty early as
