bearing obligatiouft of the United States
government. To go abroad for the so
citrities of other state is to go out of
our political and jiuhicinh jurisliction nail
subject ourselves to the hazards of their
intesUtie commotion , of the international
coiillkts , of lOssiblO hostility to this
country , amid of going before strange
tribunals as , , erhmafs ) an uiiiwolcomno
suitor.
There are IropositiolIs , the vertebral
idea of which is the creation of a new
loris of public debt. 4 plansblu one is ,
for tIme griverninuist to oiler a now bond ,
of its OWII issue , at. a low rate of interest -
est , to ruli a long period , in exchange for
its four ior cents and four.nnd.a.hinhf
per ceiit.s , allowing such a rate of pro.
ln iunl upon the attor , but Iover than
that at pro8ont ruling , as would induce
the holders to surrender thteiti and take
the 210w ; and to inko this a security for
batik circulation. 1 doubt not that this
is feasible. In that way a holder of fours
or four.and-a.hnlfs COUIl capitahi.o the
premium allowed on his bond and draw
tistorest at the now rssto on that as vehl as
oil the principa1 , whereby there would ho
all inducement to oxchiatigo , rather thati
to hold , or , in the present difliculty of
desirable roitivestinunt , to soil. I am
parsuad id ( rout tIm oilicuel experience
f the last year , that capital is ready
and willing to take , at a low rate of n
terest , all tire United States bonds that
can reasonably be issued , provided they
be at long time of payment of principal.
Should this project be favorably considered
sidored , details can be furnished. Yet
I ant so adverse to recommending the
creation of another or a difreront public
debt , that. as great as are , in my judg.
moat , the advantages of the national
batik circulation in safety , in uniformity
of value everywhere , and in ; thior mat-
tars of ccnvenience and confidence , 1
look upon such project as a ( lCr7LiCr i c.
