COMMIEMICATIONS.
Mr. Editor, Rivox, Aug. 27th, 168
I notice in your paper of the 23d inst. a
cotMtntif-ation from Mr. Ilollingsworth
giving aln expilnation, ora mneeting of ite
citizen, of this District, on fhe 6th inst.,.8
EIdefieli C. II. n bilehe I anmwered accord
ing to what I conceived to be the object of
the meetling.
I have no dlispo-;ition to keep any of my
political views back. I at decidedly in
favor of tihe independent rcasuory System,
or in other word- a divorce of the Goven:
net funds from all Uitnks. lelieviug it
to he the best policy for the Government at
present. Your h'lt serv't,
A1. WATSON.
Mr. Edilor.
I notice it your paper or the 22d inst. a
communication from EgnIus, calling on the
owners of' blooded colts, to have them in
keepine for the annual show, on 2d day of
October Court next, and not to be discour
agent, because the medals have heretofore
been horne till' by lennerhasei and Lady
Nancy. The owner of Biennerhasset and
L-05 Nancy informs Equus that he calcu
Ile on showing them with others, at the
time nentioned. And if lintermilk will
add to the symmetry, hone, muscle or hair,
ie wiuld advise the free use of it, to the
colt-, previisly shown by Equus. If there
is inotiMng but the result of the exhibitiona of
Colis,to -listurb his eqnanimit% at the close
of the day, lie expects to cross Log creek
as mntneh elated as usual on such occasions,
and not have his repose disturbed by the re
sult. 9.
NO. II.
Sir.,-To a Jlnuk of fifty millions of dot
Sitrs add the Government deposits, say from
twenty to thirty millions, making from 70
to SO millions. a stam sufficient to enablo
this institution to exercise a stipervisory
control over every Bank in tie U. States.
They mIust expand, contrnc,, stinpcnd, or
do ony other act at t lie bidding of this Bank,
and their existence would depend oi their
compliance. Now Sir, I think that I can
satisfy the most incredtlois nind by dem
onstrations as clear as that two and two
make four, that this flank will have the
power to control prices. and defrand honest
labor of mneh of its earnings. It can at
pleasure, throw into circulation such a re
dundant eurrency, as to raise fhe price of
proterty at least two hundred per oeut above
its stinmlard. or aceistomed value, and with
egnlal facilitv, when it snirs its interests,
cann reduce its loans and call in its circula
tion and produce a panic, and consequently
bri'ng down pri -es as far below their usnal
stanIdi, il its e
raised them. Thus by repeated expansions
and contractions, always btying property
ithen at tho lowest prices, and selling it
when at the highest. over all of whieb it has
absolute control. this insitution can defraud
the communtttiriity to a very creat extent atni
aceutinhate much of the people's nt enlth.
If then I htave shoiwn (as I think I have)
lhat thet 1 llank can uinjtnstlv acquire much of
the People's property, is it tnot egnaiilly clear
that it ctat buyi upl thne Government itself
;tnd c ep a way the liberies of the People?
nin between the Gohvernamenct anid the
ll:mk il l lbe a natan a sequence, Ibund
cal on mtuaIldep~etndance andI their recipro
cal tat r.uetion wtill bea as tinerring as the
ilaws ofjr:tvitatin. For instance,ahe Gav
aertnet grants a charter, incorporating a
H tamk w'ithI a capitad of fifty millions of dhoI
Iars, andI tauthouriz~es it to issue and circulate
one huanred andI fifty mnil lion~s of paper cur
rencty, aund entacts that this enrretncy shall
bei received in all dlues to the Governmaent,
llere thetn by atn net of ithe G3overnmtent
one hundred niillionas of' fn titioans capital, or
rathetr no capital whatever is made as a
v'ailabhe as gold and saliver, atnd the gain
to thle Bhnk sat 6 per cent (to say nothaing of
adlvance Ipaymtsitt) woutld lbe six~ niillions
