Summary
"I have endeavored to prove that specie payment may be resumed, confidence restored, and our bonds now bearing a high rate of interest converted into bonds at a much lower rate, by simply passing laws which shall coincide with the acts a merchant would perform if he found himself in the position in which the Government is now placed. The main point presented is, that we should decide the manner in which we intend to pay our debt, by beginning actual payment in coined dollars, and thus restore our credit. We have as yet settled none of our debt by actual payment, but have simply received our depreciated paper for taxes, and have therewith cancelled a portion of our bonds, or else by the sale of gold we have recognized our own discredit in the purchase of our bonds at a discount." [from the preface]
