INDEPENDENT TREASURY LAW


We take much pleasure in copying the
subjoined paragraph from a late number Of
Tho Washmgfoa Union, the official paper Of
the administration. We some weeks ago
expressed our apprehensions at what we
considered the omjnous silence Of several
OF our leading presses 10 regard TO this i'm
ponant and truly democratic moasure.--
Under all the circumstances, this semi
official announcement was called for, and
while iiremoves all doubts as TO tho course
Of the administration, will be gratifying to
tho democracy throughout the country -


"Among the resolutions adopted by the
Baltimore convention, was one in favor Of
the independent treasury. These resolu.
tions have ever been regarded by the Pre-
sident as indicating the policy by which
his administration should be governed. --
The independent treasury was sustained
by the vote Of the President and the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury, and further expert
enco has only confirmed the views then
taken by both. The specie policy will be
sustained in all its vigor the coinage will
be increased the foreign gold coin, which
does not circulate, will be converted as ra-
pidly as possible into the half and quarter
eagle and all other proper means will be
used, Including the recommendation OF
tho independent lroasury,) to secure to the
people an abundant supply Of the conslilu-
iional currency"
