SIR,

DIX
YOU ask my opinion on the subject of
publishing the works of Algernon Sidney.
The world has SO long and so generally SCUM
ded the praises of his " di&couraeS IN 60
pesnment," that it seems superftous, and
even presumptueus, for am individual to add
his feeble breath to the gale. They are in
truth a rich treasure of republican princi-
pies, supported by copious and cogent ar
gaments, and adorned with the finest flow
ers of science /: II is probably the best eie-
-s'rentary book ofM h,ineihies Of govern-
nfent, as founded in natural right, that has
eper been hubiishcdin GnV kasguagc-And
tits much to be desired in such govern
ment as ours, that it should be put into the
hands of orr youth, as soon as their minds
are sufficiently matured for that branch of
study. Should you proceed to the pubica-
ton, be SO good as to consider me subscri-
Ter; and accept my salutations and assur-
ances ofgreat esteem and respect.

And making the total of principal of the
public debt, reimbursed from the LIST of
April, 1901, to the 1st Of January, 1907,
more than twenty four millions of dollars.
During the same period there have also
been paid to Great Britain, in satisfaction
and discharge of the money which the Uni
ted States might have been liable to pay,
in pursuance of the provisions Of the sixth
article ofthc treaty of 1874, two millions six
hundred and sixty four thousand dollars

minister OF the United States, at Paris, on
account of American claims assumed by the
convention with France, sum exceeding
three millions and fifty thousand dollars
neither of which sums is included in the
preceding statement of debt redeemed.
AS the only parts ofthe pnblic debt which
the United States have right to reim-
burse during the year 1907, consist of the
annual reimbursement of the six per cent.
and deferred stocks, estimated at 1,540,7O7
dollars and OF the four and half percent.
stock, amounting to 10000 dollars, it will
not be practicable, unless purchases can
be effected within the limitations prcscrib-
cd by law, to apply, during that year, the
whole OF the annual appropriation Of eight
millions Of dollars. The unexpended ba-
lance, together with the appropriation for
theyear 1903, will enablet the United States
to reimburse, on the Let of January, 1909,
the wholeo the eight per cent. stock, which
lis irTcdeemable before that day.
But in order that Congress may have a

after the year 1903 s be enabled 10 decide on
the propriety Of making further legislative
provision for that object, it appears neccssa-
