The coinage of tra to dollrrt Psnch they wee authorized by the act of twelfth Febrlua y, 1.73 Ip to March 1, 15R7. has been S34,615 .9o.

There Is one thing about nm .ney, hflowver, that the Chinese can conmpr hend tIrough all their -r - judice and stpirrtiioun, and that l-, that the dollar contaninag the o oct guains of silver if it oo-t no more. is the hbe.t dollar fur them. Ithe fine finish of the trade dollar and the regularity of its finuen, s. in addition to its increased weight, gives it a d(ecled prelereuce over tlhe exican dollar. Our bull on producers look upon the China and East India markets as far more desirable for the pvicemrnt of -liver than the home market, Any lgislation that tends to restrict the foreign demand for silver can not be regarded otherwise than as inimical to the beet interests of this country. The tariff bill has been greatly Improved by the Ways and Means Committee of the United States House of IRepresentatives since it was blocked out by the chairman, Wood. A gentle man who has examined it in its now shape writes as follows concerning it: : The tariff bill, which will be brought into the d House toward the o'ose of the present week. will be a great improvement over the bill In its tl original shape, and will he entitlled to receive the support of till except the extreme proteoo- b tionists. Those, of oour-e, will iii,pose it. Some of them think the Iresent tariff not hi.h nor cumbrous enough. Noeihor will the bill satisfy V the extreme free traders, who would probably f' prefer more declsive changes. The commit- h tee and their chairman. M'r. Wood. have Il been desirous to scune two objects--lrrs,. to insure a sufficient revenue, and, secnd, toliberate commerce so far as Dossible fr m needless shackl s and (onat)le our own menu- f facturers, with the holD f oboheponed raw ma terials. to sell their surplus tronI, te in foreign markets. It is coneeded by almost overtbody i in Congress that our uanula turtrs. wlth Im proved machinery and labor-saving Ipplianoes, have got to the print where. If they are to employ their machin.ry and operatlves on C ful time, they wi I inevitab'y produc. more d than the home market, immeilsa as it is, will take up for consumption. The surplus production is not great-crittlinly not above in per cent-but It weighs cons antly on the home market, deranges trlces, stops facto, ls ant workshops, throws in lustrlius artisans ,iut of employment or forces them to work half time for part of the year. and l thut perpetuates the depression in Industry all over the country; because tltP operatives tthus unemployed ueees sarily consume less than they woul if I they were prosperous.

WAm&INrorowN March 21.-The House Com mittee on Banking and Currency to-day agreed .to report favorably upon liHad-nbeig's bill making it lawful for any association author ized under the provisius of the national bank ing act. to dispose of legal teud,,r notes which they are now required to hold as a reserve fund, and to invest the same in any of the United States bonds which are n, w issued, or which may hereaifer be issued, and such bonds so held shall constltute the reoerve fund of said associations. The rse've fund of national banks, on the first of this month was about ninety millions, and if the bill passes, curren cy circulation will be inflated to that amount. The object of te bill is t t allow banks to keep on deposit Interest paying bonds to the amount of 25 per erit of their deposits. instead of legal tenders as th,.y are niw required to do The measure is advocated by the banks. and the advantage to them is readly seen. It is also favored by the Treasury Department, as Beere'arv Sherman helih-vis it will aid ma terially in funlling the ,ational d-.bt, and of course it It advocated by tit, sc who denlre to increase the elrecuating n-ediurn if the country, sa it will a ut into eircu.ation this am' unt of greenba-ks nw cotmpellied to be boarded in bank vaults.
