REFORM OF THE ENGLISH CURRENCY.
From 1810 to 1818, the average amount of bank paper
and of specie in the currency of England was 216,-
000,000 of the former, and 2625,000 of the latter. The
reforms introduced by Parliament effected such a change
that in 1833, the proportion stood thus : of paper 125,-
000,000,of specie 12! ,828,000. The difference in the
first period between the two kinds of currency 335,-
625,000; difference fn the latter period only 4,172,000.
It is curious to observe how nearly alike in amount arc
the aggregates of the two periods, which proves that a
country will not .tolerate more than a certain, though va-
rying amount of currency, of whatever it may be com-
posed. All attempts to multiply wealth by the mere in-
crease of paper arc not only vain, but in a high degree
pernicious. Globe.
" OBITUARY.
Died, on the 4th February last, on Galveston Jilatnl, after a
paiaful and lingering illness, Capt. Hoasics P. Cuimiiuir,
- late of tbeTexian army. The deceased was a native of Buf-
falo,. Y., who, animated by the love of civil and religious
liberty which characterized bis native state, embarked in the
glorious cause of Texian emancipation early in the struggle, and
generously stated hit life upon the issue. In the full possession
of youth, talents, bravery and every virtue that ennobles anil
adorns the human character, he has been consigned to the cold
and silent tomb, thus nipping in the bud, and blasting forever
the fondest hoies of confiding parents, kind brothers and affec-
tionate sisters.
