When one of these measures becomes the law o' tbe land the I other will soon afterwards do so. It appear that this waa one of the recommendations of the last I'an American Congress, aud bus already been mentioned in the House Com mittee on Banking and Currency, and is expected soon to come up for consideration in that committee. As we hare always favored the in ternational free coinage of silver, so we expect to favor the recommenda tion of an international bank.' Such bank would koen tho currency of the world at iar" every where. There would bono discount upon the cir-1 culatin.2 notes of such a bauk. and I no reason why the financier of the) orld should rot joiu in with the. proposed new bankine-system. . UK iioane caiinaus) on iwik- i ing and Cunvccv have agre-d to. consider soon two other meritorious measuree. One of these is a bill to permit national banks to issue circu-' iaiton np to the par value of the. bonds which thty shall deposit or' have deposited for the securing of tbeir circulation isJnes. There is ' absolutely no reason that we cuu think of why this bill should not become a law. It would increase the paper currency, uud add not 1 ime to the nlc which tne banks alridy have to provide against. Ihe other measure which the, House liauking and Currency Com mittee has decided to consider is a bill to restrict the Wrruwing of a auk's funds bv tho institution's officers without the full knowledge of tbe directors. This bid speaks, for itself It proposes to cruard the ' national banks at a weak point. But the international bank bill is the one that we desire Congress to ; p. as soon as poible. Free coin- on the ground to mark this import age of silver bv international agree- ant fact in history.
