An attempt is being made in Dubuque to
create a currency. A meeting whs lield
tlicre on tin* lHtli, of citizens, at which re
solutions were adop'ed rw>|«»*-*tinir the Du
buque Harl.or Company, -to issue the se
al red notes in such tains as may lie deeand
necessary for circulation." It is proponed
to issue £3fKUfon in from lice to twenty
dollar notes.
The h'lyrti* if Hr, ti/J, a hard money pa
per. in s[*eaking of the proposed issue by
me Harbor Company, says :
The utmost confidence isexpressi-l by the
people in the resjionsibility of the llarliour
i uipany. unJ in the expedient proposed to
be resorted to for the purpose of saving this
city from commercial ruin, as well as the
üboring classes from the suffering conse
quent upon the want of employment and
thi absence of the means to purchase pro
visions and clothing during the rigors of
« liter now approaching. It is entirely a|>-
pnrent to those who are at all observant of
what is going on around them, that some ex
traordinary means must be used to avert
mitt from our city—that somethin:' must be
fo .ad to restore a circulating meilntm to us
or such a thing as •• bu-iuiws " will no: be
fo ind in our streets.
I hies any man supis)*** that, because we
favor the proposal, that we have therefore
hanged our views upon the sullied of Bank
ing? Hoes any mini suppose that Irom this
proposition can be drawn an argument in
favor of Hanki'ig
If they Suppose so They lire filnnrihg till
de: a great misappri heusiou, for. so tar from
lavoritig a rag-money eurivncy. it presents
tin* strongest possible argument against it.
The kki'kssitv which cotn|iels o rtvut to
irh uii ell wheat Ac- httn created hy /m/irr
verity, and therefore, of itself, presents an
argument against banking, which cannot lie
- iccc.-sfully refuted.
l**t it not Is* said then that those who
are willing to mtennnee the proposed issue
of negotiable pajier hv the Harbor t 'om|iany
are changing their sentinienta on the sub
etof Banks, o are inconsistent in their
views.
If we have u company of men among ns
who can furnish us a circulation in which
me people will have contidenoe, let us thank
our good fortune that some means is left by
which we can avert the ruin that stains us
m the fare and not stop to ipiarrcl over the
o lest ion of Banking
If the friends of Bonks have forced the
jicoph to resort to a temporary expedient to
-uve themselves from suffering and ruin, they
ight to be sutisthd that the people
are willing to uv that expedient instead of
voerating and cursing those advocates of
rag money circulation, whose schemes and
• florts have brought that necessity upon
them.
For our part, we are too well aware of
lhe scarcity of ui ney. and the certain dan
ger which Imngs over our laboring classes
us well us our busim-ss men. to be willing to
throw the slightest obstacle in the way of a
movemeut which offers certain relief.
