What helps the public credit is
not the idle balance but the incoming revenue.
An over¬
grown temporary balance is a temporary reservoir which
may become exhausted, but a revenue is a stream which
flows perennially.
There are many popular objections to
the heavy Treasury balances which Mr. McCulloch has
lately allowed himself to accumulate. But in the present
state of the country it ought to be unnecessary to urge any
other argument than this one of economy.
The only point of interest which remains to be noticed is
the cancelling of an undue amount of greenbacks.
The
contraction law positively prohibits the withdrawal of more
than 4 millions in any one month. Mr. McCulloch has
taken in more than 5 millions. This violation of a plain,
positive enactment of the law provokes much comment. In
January the greenbacks were increased one million, and it is
claimed by some persons that the extra million was with¬
drawn in February on that account.
But this explanation
does not satisfy the objectors. The law, they say, is clear
and precise. There is no power given to reduce the cur¬
rency more than 4 millions under any circumstances.

currency.
Mr. Cisco had other

objects in view, however, and among
elaborating a system of finance adequate to
meet the embarrassments, present and prospective, of the
National Treasury. Accordingly, he begins by giving a
sketch of the position of the public debt. When the new
year opened, he tells us, the public debt was composed of
three items: First, long-funded bonds, 1,385 millions, de¬
manding 81 millions a year of interest in coin; secondly,
short obligations, such as Seven-thirties, 677 millions; anc
Compound Notes, 145 millions; all of which fall due before
the close of next year; thirdly, legal tender notes to the
amount of 400 millions, which the writer tells us are “ pay¬
able on demand, and of course payable in gold.”
Having
made this statement, he has to account for the fact that these
notes, though “payable on demand in gold,” are not worth
them that of

their face in standard coin of the United States.

He solves

the

difficulty by the brief explanation that “ the Treasury is
perfect credit; its notes payable on demand being
depreciated 27 per cent, below gold, and its 6 per cent,
bonds selling much below par in gold.”
This formula “not in perfect credit” is the key to Mr.
Cisco’s “ system of finances.” It is imperfect credit which
makes the currency depreciated, and which causes the six
per cent. Five-twenties to sell at 80 in coin, instead of at
100.
When he has said that “the Treasury is not in perfect
credit” he believes that he has accounted for all the phenom¬
ena both of
depreciated paper money and of low-priced bonds.
Having thus settled the question as to what is the malady,
Mr. Cisco goes on to say how it must be^cured. The remedy,
he tells us is, “first of all to improve the credit” of the
Treasury. This is logical. Let us see how the end is ac¬
complished. First, he would forbid all sales of Government
gold. The coin paid into the Treasury he would hold as a
sacred deposit, which should be “ a reserve and guaranty fund
against the future gold interest and against the legal tender
notes, so as to enhance the value of these latter just as a
bank keeps a reserve against its liabilities.” It is easy to'
see how this
mass of coin might sustain the price of the
interest bearing bonds; for in case the customs duties should
not in

■

fall off for

a

time the bondholders would be assured of the

payment of their maturing interest. But how the precious
hoard could have any influence on the greenbacks Mr. Cisco
fails to show. As long as no holder of greenbacks has a
claim to a dollar of this coin reserve, how could the purchas-

ing power or public estimation
be at all influenced by it? We

Contraction, like some other useful
things, is a good servant but a very bad master. The diffi¬
culty is that its help cannot in the existing depreciation be
dispensed with. Stop contraction and there can be no re¬
sumption.
Thirdly, Mr. Cisco would issue no more gold-bearing
bonds at present. lie .thinks the Treasury loses by chang¬
ing Seven-thirties for Five-twen';ies, as the latter bear more
interest than the former. It were time enough to make the
change when the notes come due. This would be sound rea¬
soning but for one or two awkward facts. The holders of
the Seven-thirties will shortly be able to demand payment
of principal and interest in currency. We have seen panics
in which the public funds have run down to par and far be¬
low par. Suppose such a panic to happen in August, 1867.
The Seven-thirties then due may have to be paid in cash. The
demand for new legal tenders may not be arrested until we
have issued 100 millions more than are now outstanding. Or
suppose such a revulsion about
in the space of thirty days, 400

midsummer, 1868, when?
millions .or, perhaps, 500
millions of Seven-thirties will mature. What a frightful
impulse towards repudiation the currency of the country
might thus receive by excessive issues of legal tender paper.
It is too late now to complain because the maturity of these
Seven-thirties was not more judiciously arranged at the time
of their original issue.
The mischief has been done. And if
we refuse to issue gold bonds to take up these notes before
maturity the mischief cannot perhaps be undone.
Mr. Cisco thinks that, instead of issuing gold-bearing
bonds, we might induce the holders of the Seven-thirties to
forego their claim on Five-Twenties and to accept a twentyyear bond bearing 7 3-10 interest in currency, with the option
to the Government to pay instead of 7 3-10 in paper 6 per
cent, in gold after the first three years. But as these currency
bonds would not be equal in intrinsic value to the 6 percent,
coin bonds, how shall we induce the holders to accept the
offer ?

'

\

It is easy

to see why Mr. Cisco, with his very peculiar
opinions on the currency, and his anxiety to hoard up a
coin reserve,” looks with concern on the growing amount
of our annual coin disbursements.
Soon, he tells us, “ our
gold interest will be 130 millions a year. Between now
and that time is our opportunity for strengthening the Treas¬
ury in gold; after that our power to do so will be in a great
degree, if not entirely, cut off.” According to his view our
hope of returning to specie payments rests on what we can
do in hoarding specie during the next fifteen months. Sup¬
pose we could
spare 100 millions from our interest reserves
“

might as well say that a

of the 853.200 cwts. of flour was distributed as follows:
342,000 cwts.; to Belgium, 99,600 cwts.; to Germany,
17.100 cwts.; to Italy, 12,500 cwts.; to Switzerland, 64,300 cwts.; to
Algeria, 24,800 cwts. ; and sundry quarters 291,100 cwts. The stock
of flour in the different entreports af Paris on the 1st of
February was
539,840 cwts.; of wheat, 44,473 cwts. It will therefore be observed
that the excess of the imports of wheat and flsur into France, as com¬
pared with the exports, is 1,142,800 cwts. The official return of im¬
ports into the United Kingdom for the week ending Feb 9 shows that
the foreign receipts of wheat and flour were 400,000 cwts* which is
less than

average importation. The four months’ net importation
into France was, therefore, about equal to three week’s gross
imports,

Minnesota Railroad Bonds.—The Minnesota Legislature has
just parsed a law in relation to the railroad bonds of the State,
by which is created a “ State Railroad Bond Sinking Fund," for
the support of which moneys arising from the sales of certain lands,
and taxes derived from railroads, are appropriated to au annual
amount not exceeding $20,000, which sum is to be bid for by the
bondholders, and knocked down to the one who will give the largest
amount in bonds far the money in hand, or in other words, to the
one who h<is least faith in the State’s promises to pay.
Nothing is
said about the interest 7 or 8 years in default; aDd even the sop
offered is subject to rejection or approval of the people at large to
be expressed by vote at the next general election.

affairs has
steady throughout the week. Some disappointment was felt
at the bank statement showing a decrease of legal tenders, after the
large disbursements of last week by the Sub-Treasury on account of
purchases of Seven-thirty notes ; but it does not appear to have
been considered that the Treasury had made its payments largely
in bank currency, and that on that account the banks, at the close
of the week, were still holding a considerable amount of Treasury
drafts, in expectation of being able ultimately to have them cashed
in legal tenders. For this reason it may be anticipated that the
next statement will show an increase of legal tenders.

Secretary of the Treasury has retired $5,190-464 of legal tenders dur¬
ing February, and $1,755,810 of compound interest notes, making
a total contraction for the month of $6,946,274.
Besides this,
there is an increase of $7,184,181 of currency on hand ; so that
daring the month there has been $14,120,455 of currency of the
various kinds taken into the Treasury. The movement has not

produced any embarrassment to the banks, money having remained
generally easy at this centre at 5(2)6 per cent, on demand ; it has,
however, undoubtedly prevented the occurrence of an unusual de
gree of ease in the market.
The present rate on call loans is 5 per cent, on Government col.
laterals and 6 per cent, on stocks. Discounts are fairly active,
prime Botes being negotiable at 7 per cent., with exceptions at 6-J
and 74 per ceut. Lower grades are very irregular and difficult of

It appears,
The Gold Market.—Gold has shown an unexpectedly strong
however, that the sales were made chiefly with a view to buying in
early at lower prices. To-day the purchases of the “ shorts” have tendency downward. The settlement of vexed questions of politics
and finance at the close of the session of Congress has been succeed¬
been quite considerable, and prices have nearly recovered what they
ed by a reaction from the excitement in the public mind ; and those
previously lost. The balance of power appears to be with those
who have held gold from an expectation the session would close in
operating lor a decline; and hence their attempts to break down
storm have become ready sellers.
This movement for realizing upon
prices are generally successful ; but their subsequent purchases to
cover “ short ” contracts generally bring up prices
to about the gold has produced a decline of 6 points in the premium, the highest
The purchases up to

roads, in spite of the prtvailing depression of trade, has the effect of

Yesterday and to¬

large, but the premium has been weak notwithstanding. The mar¬

smoking tobacco—Very little in market, but in
good demand. There is some inquiry for inferior qualities.
At Petersburg the activity reported iu our last review continues un¬
abated. The receipts of loose are large, and all desirable grade* sell
at full prices.
The receipts of hogsheads are daily increasing. We
quote lugs at $2@4 for common to good ; very good $4 *25@6; leaf at
$8@10 for good, very good $13 50@15 50, fancy $29 50@80 Primings

low and are much neglected.

The

general demand has somewhat improved in the past
week, and prices opened firm, but the decline in gold has had
the effect to weaken the market at the close, especially for
flour and wheat.
The Western markets have been very firm.

The movement in breadstuffs at this market has been as follows:

Virginia.—At Richmond the tobacco market of the week has been
dull and prices lower, except for desirable and fine grades. Fine bright,
and indeed all qualities of good merit, sell at about our quotations of last
week.
But, of the receipts, only a small proportion is in good order—
the major portion being of medium and low grades of loose leaf: and
if future receipts continue to be of this character, prices are likely to
continue on the decline for that description of tobacco. The better
