f. I THE EVENING POST. MONDAY EVE.MNO, JULY 17. The new impression ol Gouge's History ot Banking in the United States is now ready for deliyery. Copies can be had fit the office of the Evening It is a work compiled with great diligence, and with such perlect fairness, that we do not recollect to hare seen one of its statements disputed.

It contains a mass of minute and useful information respecting the operation of our system of banking, at various periods, on the trade and occupations of the country. Mr. Gouge's new pamphlet, suggesting a scheme for the collection and disbursement of the revenue without the aid of banks, may also be had at this office. AY hat course will be taken by the bink democrats in Congress should they be unable to procure the dispensation which they desire, should they be unable to effect the repeal of the law which forbids the public deposites to be entrusted with bank rupt institutions? Will they come out in favor of the separation of bank and state? Will they vote for a plan which shall dispense with bank agency in collecting and paying away the public revenue? For our part we entertain no such expectation. This is the last scheme to which they will give their consent.

The prospectus of the Madisonian, their new paper at the seat of government, says not a word in favor of the divorce of bank and state. A uniform metallic standard, and the refusal ot the government to be in any way concerned in aiding the circulation of bank notes, would be death to their hopes of speculation. They will then, most probably, throw themselves Into the arms ot the national bank party the party which proposes either to charter Mr. Diddle' Bank, or employ that bank as the fiscal agent of the government, or create a new national institution. They proclaim themselves conservatives;" they hold that we have gone too far" in favor of a metallic curren cy, and their plan is to maintain the ascendancy of the and prerogatives, their influence with the government, and their agency in its affurs.

If this be a true representation of their opinions, it is evident that they cannot join in a plan to separate the affairs of the nation from those of the banks. They will then unite with the party nearest them in opinion, the national bank party. It is not impossible that by this combination of whigs and bank democrats, some scheme lor con necting the affairs of the Treasury with those of a corporate institution wi 1 be urged through Con rress. It this should be the case, it will remain for the President to consider whether he shall take the responsibility of returning the bill with his ne strive. For our own part, we have no sort of question that any compromise of the kind to which we allude between the different bank factions in Con gress would be in utter defiance of public opinion.

7'he decision of the people has been pronounced again and again on the question of a national bank. To pass a law creating such an institution would be the most deliberate insult which Congress could offer to the people. That body would divest itself of its representative character and assume that of a sovereign and a tyrant. If the President should slight the general voue so far as to give his signa t' to the bill, he would not be able to face the loud uutancc of puWlic indignation, but would find hiinseli umpfiicKi to resipn ho" had completed his first in office. Not onty is the mini ot the people fully made up and decidedly eTp on hiect of a national bank but on oUi" question of the of bank their unanimity is no less great.

a aw men mar bluster in our great cities; bank directors and bank agents may bustle in our legis latures; but, depend upon it, the people are deter Turned to tolerate no further participation of the banks in the affairs of government. There never was a more popular catch word than the separa tion or bank akd state. It is a phrase full of de tnocratic meaning; it is music to the ears of the people. It is a phrase which will never be laid aside till all that it imports is fully realized. On this feeling in the people the administration may confidently rely, sure that if they trust to it they will be triumphantly sustained.

Seamkn's RernfAT. We have been favored with the following from correspondent, on the subject of the Retreat, respecting which an article appeared in the Evening Poet of Saturday. We say let the honors be equally divided. COMMUNICATED. Tut Seaman's Retreat.

More than ten years Since the subject ol righting the sailors of this port in respect to the dollar tax unjustly exacted of 1 hem under quarantine laws was agitated artieng the seamen and captains of ves ela. Some few years after it auumed a consistent shape inthehandsofCapts. E. W. Packhard, James AJorgan, Henry Russell, Alexander Thomson, John Webb, Asa Weldcn, be, who determined that this tax should go to tbe exclusive benefit ol the sailor inasmuch as according to the existing regulations at quarantine, no one could be admitted there except thoso who arrived in the warm season with bilious, malignant yellow, or some other infectious fever, and in winter none but such as had small pax, or typhus.

Consequently, the sailors during our long winters, were often suffering every privation in our stieets. Tha captains of vessels had resolved if the tax could not be distinctly appropriated to the sailor's own benefit to dispute the constitutionality of it. Meetings were held frequently. Finally, at Captain Morgan's suggestion the being then a member, and ent by the sailor interest in this city to tho Assembly, specially to advocate this measure,) the co operation of the Common Council was prayed for by a memorial presented by Dr. Townsend, then Assistant Alderman of the 6th ward.

A report of great length, printed by the Common Council, was drawn up by Dr. as chairman ot a committee, ap pointed to investigate the matter. 1331. This conunitUe met consultation with a committee captains of vessel, who fully approved the contents of the report. Tho report gave a minute statistical statement ol the profligate manner in which about million of dollars ol tin sailor's mo iey bid boon sunk at the Ground.

The ellcct of this expose was to carry, shortly afterward, the Common Council in a uuanimous vote re' commending a redress of grievances complained of. It was Captain Morgan's eiFxli in the Assembly backed ly this report which carried a unanimous vote there also in Iavoc of the bill introduced by him, and which bill at Captain Moreen's request was drafted by Dr. 1 ownsend. After the ImII had got through tha Assembly, 'for there was no one then who had the courage to lisp a word against the ineon tnvertoble facts introduced into the above named Report, nd by Captain Morgan there was an intrigue got up to do lout itiii tha Senate. Captain Morgan wrote to Dr.

Town. end to sa what influenco he might have with the Senate swim Din establishing Somen's R.treat would be lost. Dr. Tovrnaend went to Albany, saw the Governor, the vernor's brother. Mr.

Q. B. Throope, who was at first warmiy aiso, Stephen Allen, Esq. the late Mr. M.ynard JuJS McLean, and others, laid tho whole subject before them, went to New York, had an unanimous vote on the report and memorial passed by the Common 7 'n 19 U' lo elen cher to th, bill and through the Sena just on the Captain Morgan la, had the candor in say the bill was got through mainly through Dr end' cftort.

The writer of this is prepared to go into thit in extenso, if called upon. Dr. Townsenj has been drawn into the matter without his agency through complimentary allusion to him in the American and there aro a maas of details connected ilb it, some of hich are of a character not to reflect much honor on the parties concerned, which will be spread before the public, it those who now wish to deck themselves with borrowed plumes, and to fatten on tb, harvest others have sown, do not observe a becoming discre tion. The following communication contains some Important views, forcibly stated. It docs not appear to as, however, as we have already more than once taken occasion to say, that any thing would be gained by the prohibition ofnotes of tbe smallest denomination, in case free banking were allow.

ed. We do not believe, in fact, that such notes would obtain a circulation, from the very fact that they would be dis. credited by the universal facility of issuing them. We should not be unwilling, however, to accept even the scheme of our correspondent, of free banking with a prohibition of the issue of notes of ten dollars and under. For the Evening Post.

"I am for a solid specie basis for our circulation, and for specie an a part of the circulation, so far as it may be practi cable and Convenient. I am for giving no value to paper, merely as paper. I abhor paper that is In say, irredeemable pa per; paper that may not be converted into gold and sif ver at the will of the holder." Daniel Webster. Having shown tho nature ot a specie basis, and the futili ty of other devices to sustain a currency, my last communi cation ctosod with the important enquiry, how en adequate amount of gold and silver can be diffused and kept among the people to form a solid basis for our circulation." The plain, and, to my understanding, conclusive answer to this question this, viz Banish the small note circulation. 1 ap peal to experience.

Gold and silver vanish as bank notes appear; and they return when tbe latter arc excluded. Re publican France had her assi gnats, the representatives of the confiscated estates of the and the nobility avast na tional domain. Yet the reign of terror could not sustain their credit or prevent the escape of the precious metals, and France was bankrupt. She now permits no paper money of a smaller denomination titan five hundred francs, and she has an immense metallic circulation. The currency on the continent of Europe in general is of specie.

It was so in England too before her bank was created. That began with the emission of large notes. For more than half a century the precious metals continued to be the common circulalin medium. But, as tbe national debt increased, its paper re presentative appeared in the multiplied issues by the bank of bills of smaller denominations guineas grew scarcer and scarcer, till the bank became unable to meet the demand for the redemption of her paper, and a long and memorable sus pension of specie payments ensued. Five pounds is now thn minimum of her paper money, and England in consequence has a large specie circulation, yet much inferior to that o1 France.

If we look at home, a gold eagle has scarcely been seen in circulation since banks were established. Silver, also, diminished, till the country proved to be bankrupt, and the ne rf shinptasters arrived. It flourished till the prohibi tion ly Urn or all paper of less amount than one dollar, and, for auoht that appear to the contrary, the oge of shinplasters, had they not been expelled by lav), mignl have continued till this dav. Their expulsion brought buck small change as it by magic. One dollar notes, however, marked tho limit of circulation, until the states, one by one, extended the inderdict upon paper to two and three dollar bills, when their place was immediately supplied by silver.

I ire ana ten dollar bills unfortunately remained, ami they have neutralized the labors of government to restore gold com to common use. All paper, however, is refused of ie land offices, and the pn ceeds of I lie mint have retired into the woods to buy wild lands. What is the eenoral inference to be drawn from these facts Obviously this that hard monry, and paper money of the same denomination, will not circulate together. The Intter is cheaper, as well as somewhat more convenient, and therefore it suncrsedes the former; whereas the prohibition of pa per is invariably followed by the teturn of specie to the vacant channel ol circulation. The abolition of small notes lies at the root of reformation in our currency.

This is very evident, if the present sys tern of chartered banking is to continue and loo many and too important interests are connecicd with that system to render its immediate overthrow an easy task, or desirable, perhaps, if it could be achieved. But could we rid ourselves at once of the whole combination of monopolies, it would not be safe to tolerate small bills. Highly as I deem of tree ba. iking, and ardently as 1 dMire to see it universally introduced, 1 am unable to persuade myself lhat it alone would countervail the pernicious tendencies of a small note circulation. The same motives which induco corporations, would tempt individuals or partnerships to issue small bills the habits of the people would give them a similar currency, and thev would be equally fatal with the notes of chartered com panies to the circulation ofthe precious metals.

1 therefore consider it a settled point, that if we are ever to have "a solid specie basis, and specie as a substantial part of our circula tion medium," it must De ny me total exclusion ot ine sniui lerdenomiuations of paper money. The present limit to which the imper circulation should be confined, it is not perhaps easy to fix, and I shall not attempt to define it. Cettatn principles, however, may be laid down for its regulation. In order that all our legal coins. be brought intocirculti.

T. au r. Mowed of the same denominations, ihcrelore rt, nomina. hank notes should be abova the minimum fun riikllnra. rt mini.

II stuiulH io hiih ordinary 0 tiiuno in live by labor, and not by the use of credit, should be in specie, and not in paper. A specie cir culation should be insured to the working men and, lastly. the limit should bo so fixed that the azareate amount of gold and silver coin should be ot least equal lo tbe aggregate umouut of its paper representative. Mr. Webster proposes convenience and practicability as the only limit to the metallic circulation.

Convenience is a relative idea paper is more portable, and takes up less room than gom anu silver, anu in inese respects is more con venienL But gold and silver are ies liable to be counter feited, and are ealcr to be Kepi, and so nave a convenience of a higher order. The inconvenience ol carriage and de posit applies but in a very slight degree to the ordinary re ceipts and disbursements in private inc. As to the pracl'tcabililu of obtaining a sufficient quantitvof specie, a strange fancy has seized the mind of many, and secm.4 even to have infected the godlike Webster." It is impossible, say they, tQ.ob!ain an adequate supply of specie ior tne purpose oi circuiauou; an innsienuom does not con tain enough. In the first place, this position is a distinct admission ol the lallacy of our paper system, and gives the he to the professions on which it is founded. If there is not specie enough in the world to form the under current of our circulation, there certainly is not enough to redeem our pa.

per circulation which consequently is not founded on specie, nor is the representative olspecie but it stands con leased an absolutely inconvertible paper medium. Let ns then be honest, and cither establish another standard of value. since the preciom metals arc out of the question, and make our bank notes payable in corn or land, or whatever else they represent or lei us rcouce our paper circulation, to the specie standard. But it is not true that we cannot obtain an adequate sup ply of specie. IJow do France and Italy, and all the east maintain a specie circulation i iias noi our country resources wherewith to purchase our share of the precious 'metals with the rest of the world 7 Uur deficiency ot specie is aot nositive but relative, not real but imasinary.

The expansion of our credit system has raised the scale ot prices to an ex orbitant height, lieduco tnem to tncir proper level with those of other nations, and cease excessive importations, and we shall have eo and silver enough or rail bnns back the currency to a specie standard, and this wilt restore a true scale of values, encourage our exports, diminish our imports, and effectually secure tousourfull complement of Uie precious metals. There is another bug bear abroad equally erroneous with the one we have just been considering. It is, that the de mocracy contemplate esiaoiuming an wuiiixcu specie currency, and with it the destruction of credit. I am not aware, that, any considerable portion of the democratic party, entertain the project of" an exclusive gold and silver circulation." In the idest snse the thing is impracticable and in no sense is it necessary or desirable. There are two modes ot traffic either by barter, as of one commodity for another or by sale, where money is given for property.

The former of these modes unbraces most transactions, both of foreign and internal commerce. The products of one country, or section of a country are in general exchanged for those of another and these exchanges aro negotiated through bills of exchange. Specie is required only to liquidate the aggregate balances on cither side. Farther than this, money is not needed in commerce, otherwise than as a common standard with which to compare articles of merchandise, and thus to determine their relative values. Prices being fixed by mere reference to this known standard, a shipper at New York, for example, draws a bill lor the value of his cargo upon bis consignee at New Orleans, and sellsittoanothermcrchant.who may bo indebted at New Orleans for cotton, and who transmits the bill to that place in payment.

By such means transactions to the amongst of many millions may be and are coniinnaity arranged wiinoui the intervention ot a dollar in money. Bills of exchange are not money, that is, they do not represent gold or silver, but when legitimately used, they represent exchangeable commodities. They may be called with propriety the money of commerce, the circulating medium amon; merchants; because they stand for those articles about which commerce is concerned. They may bo multiplied to any extent corresponding with tho exchanges of merchandise, without injuriously atTucting thicurrency of a country. Indeed, they have, or ought to have, but a very limited, it any influence upou the currency strictly so called.

Now this system of commercial dealing, which I have briefly described, mny, it is very evident, be carried on whether the ordinary circulating medium is of specie or ol paper. And the merchants may rest assured, that there is no wish on the part of the people to interfere with it, nor to prevent them from giving such credit in these matters, or i i i liora running in aeni io eaco oinrr, may uu luwr iniereai or convenience, it is also pert eel I indiuvrenl in tno people at Ut whether merchants negotiate their credils through bills 5" exchange, or with bank notes. Such transactions, however, it will be readily admitted, do not require the circulation ol small notes. But when we come down trom the higher regions of commerce to tho minor and infinitely diversified traffic of common life, the whole current of affairs is different. There barter in ctvuizeu society ceases.

Money is not only the standard ol value dui tno medium oi exenange, and po per as moncv, is not the representative of property passiiw by way of barter, but it serves (how truly is another question) as real money, which is something having a fixed inherent value, not SilsceptiDie uhicii increase or diminution ot supply, and capable in lUelf of purchasing any other property which the holder may desire. the great and unanswerable objection ine unnunitj, is to the substitution of property or credit, or any thing other than specie, as the standard of exchangeable value, and to the circulation as money, of any thing but specie or its representative, position rest's on the eternal laws of equity. It is wrong, in the first place, to subject to the fluctna none, of credit Uut portion ol society who subsist pot by credit but by labor. Tbe hazard of credit ought to be COR 1 fined (o those vm inn Ha advantages. A vain, as a breach of justice is bad policy in tbe long run, the introduction of credit in the roon of money, deranging prices, and confound weaun wun lie representative, not ol capital, nut oj ucui, afiitlSjbyila periodical revulsions, all classes, but chiefly ruining those who hive had most to do with the system.

I have diverged from the main topic ol this article, viz the means ol establishing a solid specie basis for the currency, in order to expose certain widely extended error connected with this subject, in relation to which it is very important to disabuse the public mind, and to impart clear and distinct ideas. The digression, if successful in its object, will be found to have advanced our understanding of the truth, which is the great end ot all discussion. Another article will maintain the wisdom of persevering in the great experiment, as is termed in dcnsion, and conduce my labors on this subiuct. mnTT lT1 For the Evening Post. The Evening Star boasts of the good credit that, it says.

The Ihurmometcr lias ranged since Saturday last at mid day, from 83 to 89 degrees, in what is thought a fair situation, and in many places at Irom 90 to 92 in the shade, but probably more exposed to the rays, or re lleclion tiom the sun. We hear ot no unusual sicKncss, and believe lie city to be full as healthy at present as any other in the Union, and no tears are entertained lor too ba lance of this season. As regards business, every thing remains about the same and dull a is usual at this season ot the year. 1 here is scarcely any variation in prices, the sates bein so small.lhcy remain at about last hied rates. Purchase of flour, corn, hay, and provisions, to a conside rable extent have been made during the season, for govern ment account, which has materially benefited the market for those articles.

Money is scarce as ever, and there are many complaints. hut the banks arc not as accommodating to the commercial community, as was expected when they discontinued specie payments, the ten per cent is said to be rigidly exacted trom ihos? wlio are solvent, and a regular business, without extending new discounts to that class, and in this way good and regular houses are becoming hard pressed, as no reliance can be pi iced on Collections or remittances in any Specie meets a ready demand at quotations it uem conic in Irom the Western states, but the shipments making, perhaps may the receipts, yesterday about 9000 dollars as shipped to Havre, and a quantity to New York, and Philadelphia during the week, the amount we were unable to ascertain. Dead Booies Found. The Natchez Courier of last Saturday that the bodies of 21 persons were picked up at the mouth ot the Buffalo Creek, one mile and a half above Fort Adams by gome of the citizens of that place. There is no doubt but that they are a part of the large number that met their untimely and horrid end at that awful catastrophe, the burning of the Ben Sherrod.

The cUthes on some of the bodies were much burnt. In the number were two ladies, one of whom had a child, which a mother's fondness and a mother's despair had so encircled with her left arm, that even in death itjrcmained pressed to that bosom where it could no longer find protection.
