nues-or to the possessor Of real
property in towns, or in the country,
or the half rent which he will be
compelled to take, in order to get
tenants into his houses or upon his
farms, to keep them from falling in
TO ruins? These considerations are
certainly worth some attention. The
government, unless they allow the I'M
rortation OF goods into tho country,
must depend for the means Of car
rying on the war, upon taxes or
loans, either from individuals, or
from monied institutions. They will
not risk their popularity by resorting
TO tdIes to the full amount of their
necessities, nor will they be able to
meet them by individual contribu-
tons: they must therefore depend
upon the banks and If they refuse
0ieir aid, the war must end.
