The Currency Question.
Editor Hkhald: — The currency
question) in its apt>) it at ion to Califor
nia, cannot fail t<» engross a large
share of the labors of the Legislature
at the coining session. The will of
the people should be made clearly
manifest In advance, so (hat our so
lous may have no uncertain light to
guide them.
The great body of the people, de
mand relief from the merciless ex
actions of a money system which ex
cludes capital from abroad, imposes
an exorbitant rate of interest, anil
controls the business of the State to
the injury of all their interests.
It is patent that, on this question,
the people are divided Into two classes.
Arrayed on one side are the bankers,
brokers, capitalists and all other in
their interests. On the other side, are
the agriculturists, mechanics, laborers
and all others in their interests. The
former bitterly opposethc Introduction
of our national currency and hanking
system, mil/// because it will add
largely to the volume of circulation,
bring in capital from other States,
lead to the establishment of national
banks, reduce the rates of interest and,
generally, unsettle, if not entirely de
stroy the great moneyed monopoly
which omi» the State financially and
politically.
The hitter perversely insist that leg
islation, banking, a high rate of Inter
est and a despotic control of lhe com
merce and business of the State, have
all been enjoyed long enough by the
other side; and now they must have a
little legislation in their behalf, and.
at east, a brief respite from the des
potism of the money power.
Ostensibly, the former insist thai
the national currency is unsound; that
uo currency should not be tolerated
unless convertible into gold, the stand
ard by which till v alues are measured,
But Is the national currency in fact
unsound? It Is difficult to tell what
intrinsic value there is in gold, aside
from its use as a purchasing power,
it owes its position as a standard of
value to legislation and custom. What
is there behind Ihe national currency
lo give it value? Ist. It is Iho promise
of the government, and the goven
menl is bound to redeem it sooner or
later. It has, therefore, the security
of ti stable government which secures
lo it a value. 2d. It has Federal and
state legislation in Its aid, by which
it is made a legal tender for all debts,
public and private, except customs,
ild. It has the endorsement of the peo
ple ■and, by common consent, till the
business of the United States, except
the Pacific ("oast, is done on a govern
ment currency basis. So far, then, as
we are concerned, greenbacks have all
the elements that give value to gold
as a purchasing medium, Therefore, I
assume Ihal it eaiiool he said thai out'
national currency is unsound. True,
It cannot be converted Into gold ex
cept at a discount. Unfortunately for
torty millions of people, a few unprin
cipled money gamblers In Wall street
without "rhyme or reason" put gold
up to twenty one day, and down to ton
the next, and the people havo to sub
mit! It would ho a happy consumma
tion if some way could he devised,
lawfully, to send all such gamblers to
the happy hunting mounds with ('apt.
Jack.
With tlio exception of this coast,
cold docs not enter into circulation in
the business of the United Htates. It
has practically ceased to ho money and
become an article of commerce to bo
bought nnd sold in tho make! like
iron and copper.
Currency Is, therefore, the only
money, and as it lias for all purposes,
except customs, the value of gold, how
can it bo said to be unsound? All bus
iness has adjusted Itself to tho money
used in transacting It; and for all or
dinary uses it is a sound currency, se
cured by the wealth of the govern
ment, and a currency which cannot
fall without the wreck of our institu
tions.
What would be the effect of the In
troduction of the national currency
into this State? Undoubtedly, gold
wotdd gradually cease to be used, ex
cept for customs, and the bulk of It
woidd find its way to the great gold
mart of the continent, where its de
mand lor custom duties would he most
needed. We would then have a cir
culating medium composed entirely
of national currency. Of course the
transition from the one to the other
here, would necessarily be slow and
in proportion to the influx of currency;
and this would continue until the
point of equipoise should he reached.
This transition would have a tendency
to derange our business somewhat;
but I cannot imagine any disaster af
fecting the general public would fol
low.
Ou the other hand, may we not, with
Home confidence, take another view of
the question so far as it relates to the
equalisation of gold and currency, and
(he effect id'the introduction hereof
the latter. Tlie adoption of currency
on this coast, as I have stated, would
add to tlu- hulk of gold an <tn article
tJ eommeroe, (and not as money) say
lifty millions. The addition of that
amount of commerce gold would at
ones and inevitably reduce its value
as compared with currency, probably
to a nominal premium, When that
point shall he attained, the govern
ment aud government hunks could
then well resume specie payment, and
the equipoise would he reached.
Then the locked up gold would float
out into the great channels of business,
reviving a drooping commerce, stimu
lating new private and public enter
prises, and bringing about an em of
general and substantial prosperity.
Tlie very moment California au
thorltively adopts tlie national curren
cy BS a basis, (lie effeol on the value of
g'-dd would he instantly anticipated,
tinda ( lose approximation, it not au
inutility, reached at once. In that
event tlie transition would he har
monious; and the treble blessings
devoutly tolw wished—the equalization
of gold and currency, resumption of
Los Angeles Daily Herald.
Hpeele payment anil tho increase in
tlio volume nf money would follow lo
revive and prosper us.
Thus California may become tho
moans of enabling tho government to
redeem its faith, of bringing K<>l<l
notes to a common standard and In
augurating an era of general good to
the whole nation. T.
Mail Communication with Australia.
Hon. Mr. White, United States Con
sttl at Now Zealand, Who lias just ar
rived in this city, states Unit in refer
ence to tlio prospective Australasian
and Now Zealand postal service to
wards tho outer world, H. H. Rail,
Esq., Consul til Sydney lias taken a
Contract lrom the Now South Wales
government and the English govern
ment for carrying the mafia from Lon
don by way of New York and San
Francisco to Sydney and vice verm.
The ftrst steamship will, it Is expect
ed, start from Sim Francisco and
Sydney simultaneously early in
December of tho present year. The
government subsidy will bo regulat
ed as follows: Tlio Mini of £46,

vice from Han Francisco to tlio Aus
tralian port which may be agreed up
on, or £80,000 for twenty-four days.

IL IL Hall is at tlio ship building
works on tho Clyde. Scotland, super
intending tho construction of the
steamships destined for tho service.
Messrs. Dunn & Cameron, of Now
Sunth Wales, are tlio bankers. At
present tho Now Zealand government
has no arrangement for tho convey
ance of its foreign mail other than tne
running of a boat to the Fiji Islands,
there to connect with the mall steam

The Consular Agent of the United
States of America, at Tehauntepec,
ordered a small iron safe and a copy
ing press, for use of the Consular
Agency at Tehauntepec, which was
forwarded In the I. M. s. s. Winches
ter, in her .June trip, up the coast.
Neither the shippers nor the Captain
thought it necessary to make up a set
of documents for such an Insignificant
shipment, and particularly as they
were destined for a consular office of a
friendly nation; hut to the surprise and
mortification of all interested, on the
arrival of the steamer at the port of
Salina Cruz, no arrangements could be
made with the .Mexican patriots to
disembark the articles without risk of
confiscation, and heavy tine to the
Steamer, so they were returned to
Panama.
When one can combine tlie true
spirit of elegy with accuracy of detail,
he does a good thing as per tin- fol

Herewith I certify that Miss Josephine Lind
ley has been a student in my department of
l lie University for Aye consecutive terms, viz:
from Heptember, IK7O, to April M, 1872. During
Ihls time she studied the French, tbe Spanish
uud tlie German languages, obtaining always
the highest marks for proAclency and attend
ance, her uvenige credit mark for five terms
being H7 per cent.
On entering the University, Miss land ley
possessed already such knowledge of the
French and Spanish idioms as to he able tn
speak them with ease, fluency, correctness,
and a pure pronunciation.
she may now be considered thoroughly fa
milial with the theory and philosophy, as well
as willi the application of these two tongues;
and she may safely be recommended us a can
didate of great promise, for teaching the
French and Spanish languages.
