RICHMOND, December 3.-In the Board of Trade, Mr. Monroe, of Dubuque, had the floor on the unfinished business of yesterday-being resolution for a double iraak railroad from the centro of thc chief source of grain and produce in the Weet to tho Atlantic seaboard. He showed that a double track road, 1,200 miles long, with trains starting every five minutes, having 3,000 trains on tho track, with 51,000 cars in constant mo? tion, 865 days in the year, would have a capacity of only 15,775,000 tons each way; while the Virginia water lino, with boats of 280 tons, and doublo locks, and used only 300 day in tho year, would have a capacity of over 16,000,000 tons each way. Tho whole subject was thou laid on the table-30 to 16. The nineteenth proposition-Niagara Ship Canal. A resolution wan offered by Mr. Bagley, of Detroit, urging upou Congress the necessity of the construc? tion of a ship canal around Niagara Fal's, with connection at Lukes Erio and Ontario, and appointing a committee to memorialize Congress on the subject. He explained that Congross was not asked to give any money to tho work. The resolution was advocated by Messrs. Oagley, of Detroit; Doco, of Chicago; Holton, of Wisconsin; Opedyke, of New York, and others. They urged it as not only a eeotional, but a national necessity. The whole shipping of the West, which might be needed as a navy by the Gov? ernment Homo day, is locked up where it can nover roach the ooean. Tho cost, variously estimated as ranging from $6,000,000 to 812,000,000, is nothing compared with the vital necessity for it. Here is a chain of water lines 12,000 miles long, obstructed by Niagara Falls an obstruction which may be overcome for a few millions of dollars. Sooner or later Canada wonld, of her own choice, be a part of the United States, and the commerce of this canal, now to flow through the St. Lawrence River, would then be going through one of our own rivers. The Welland Canal, the only existing outlet for produee except the Erie Canal, can only receive voasels with 20,000 bushels of grain, while the larger portion of the shipping on the lakes Carry 40,000 bushols. Mr. Dupuy, of llo?ton, said it must be evideut to all, that the relations of Canada are soon to be changed. The movements in that do? minion olearly indicate it. In view of the important chango, he thought delay in action on this subject advisable. Mr. Taylor, of St. Paul, gave tho history of the movements in the past looking to a nniou of Canada with the United States, and the causeo of the Winnebago war and other movements in British Colum? bia, looking to the same end. AU this he thought rather only strengthens the argument for imm?diate action on this subject. The resolution was defeated for want of a two-thirds vote, and being reconsidered, was adopted-ayes 44, nays ' 22. The seventeenth proposition was that of a regulation of railroad freight fix the rete to bo charged for transporta tion of freight aod passengers on each railroad in the United States; the rate to be baaed on a reason able income for the money invested in each. He said many railroads had a fictitious capital of aove ral millions dollars, and upon this the publio was made to pay iutereet. Rail? roads ?ere public institutions, and fit Hnbject for interference of the law-mak? ing power. After briuf opposition from Mr. Hastie, of South Carolina, tho reso? lution was tabled. The twentieth and twenty-first propo? sitions, referring to tho James River aud Knnawaha Canal, and Northern Pacific Railroad, were postponed till to-morrow. A resolution for establishing a system of meteoric observation, to givo warning of coming storma on the Takes, was ru for cd to tho Executive Council. The twenty-second proposition was taken up. It comes from the Baltimore Board, in the sbapo of a resolution af? firming confidence in the general princi? ples of tho national banking law, but believing tho currency ia too limited, ad? vocates tbe repeal of that section of the law limiting the circulation of national bank notes to $300,000,000. On motion of Mr. Ropos, of Boston, the twenty third proposition, recommending to Congress tho adoption of measures to huston tho ron toi ut iou of tho specie standard of value, (coming up from the Boston Board.) was also taken up, and both discussed together. Mr. Jaoklaud, of Baltimore, explained, that though proposition twenty-second carno from the Baltimore Bourd, it wu* not endorsed by it; he went on to ad vu cato resumption of specie payment; nu incidental denunciation of repudiation, was loudly applauded. He offered a re. solution referring those two proposition* and tho twenty-fourth-which recoin mended tho ropeal af the tux on StuU bank notes-to a committee, to report al this session of the Board. Mr. Ropes, of Boston, said money like weights and measures, is useful oulj in connootion with other commodities and can only be applied to measure am exchango values. Paper money is ont] a certificate of transfer of money. Nc government has the right to loave its ob ligations over duo. To return to apeoii payment is impossible uutii the eqniii brium of values is restored. PriocB nov aro inflated, and have boen mado so lr tho increase of irredeemable credit; au< wo must now reverse the process. Tin Government mast allow tho greenback to be funded, and banks must bo mad to increase their capital aud diminisl their liabilities. This will not disturl industry, but will only check illogitimat speculation. If it is not done, then th only alternatives aro bankruptcy and re pudiation. Ho advocated tho issue of per cont, thirty year bonds, payable ii gold, priucipal and interest-which coull bo sold for greenbacks and the green backs thus drawn in. Mr>- Dore, of Chicago, nrged tho CJfigrcr.a should authorizo tho Secretar of ^he Treasury to rccoivo u certain poi tion ol tho duties on imports-say one third or one-half-in greenbacks; an also to advertise, if gold to-day is twee ty-two, that ho will sell gold the first c next mouth at ono or two couts less; an tho first of each succeeding mouth on or two lons than tho months previous This, he thought, would do away wit tho difference betweon gold and currency Mr. Opedyko, of Now York, thongL the safest return to specie payment wu to bo found in carefully maintaining th value of tho currency-neither expand iug nor contractiug its value, but grov iug up to it bj' tho increaso of iudastr and commerce, which overy year nece; sarily brings us nearer resumption. Mi Ropes' plan of return, by the issue < four per cent, thirty years bonds, wit which to draw in greenbacks, would r ? failure. If wo should doable oar cu roney to-day, before a year passed, mont would be just as scarco and specie i high. Ho favorod making an equitab distribution of tho currency throughoi the country. Ho believed we had ti day about as good a currency as we ev had in this country. [Applause.] Tl national banking system is in all poin an improvomont on the systems former used. Ho thought, from tho favor which they wore hold by the people, th if tho Supremo Court to-morrow were declare thom not to be legal tender, in month they would havo regained thc placa in the popular confidence. Tl existing curren zy laws are about the b< we can havo, aud under them tho de has been curtailed $70,000,000, and t business of tho country has not bc affected. Mr. Chittenden, of Now York, sa tho only course that ever promised a st resumption of specio payment, was i cretary McCul?ock's plan, that was abr doned with what, he feared, would bi disastrous result. Speculation in gt should bo stopped by Act of Congro and that is the only possiblo solution the financial question. There had i beon a timo in his 25 years business i perienco in Now York, when thore was little fueling of prosperity. Notwi standing tho show of legal reservo in \ bunks there, ho believed a sudden i mond for $10,000,000 in greenba< would smash thom. Ho behoved Government ought to march fit rai j forward to tho establishment of an h est currency, and every careful n should bo gotting ready to moet t action, by curtailing his indebtedm Ho believed that from Washington, n Monday, words would be heard indi? ing this purpose on the part of Government. Mr. Taylor, of St. Paul, advocate special fifty years gold loan by the G ernment. Tho first part of the procc of which should be redemption of notes. He dil not think $50,000,00' this loan ~on!d be used before the C ernment promises to pay would be g as gold. The banka should then be quired to redeem their notes in ape or United States note?. [r. .Thoma?, of Pbil<u?olphi?, did no? dc specie payment could be reen med until the Government bod $2,000,000,000 in specie to redeem its debt. The Board, at 4 p. m., adjourned until to-morrow.
