THE DEBT OF ENGLAND AND
FRANCE, AND THE WAR.

England and France go to war with Russia
with debt fastened 10 their shoulders, which.
like Sinbads old man of the sea, clings to them
with the tenacity Of death The debt of Eng.
land is estimated at $3,S62, 50O,9O4 and the
debt of France at $l,06a, ,47a Before the
war is Overland we perceive that the ablest
heads in Parliament expect it to be protracted-
this enormous liability will be fearfully increas-
ed. Meanwhile, who pays? Who sufferss Not
alone the vast expenditure Of blood is drawn
from the people, but from voorhees, and bread
less population taxes must be extorted to keep
up the conflict on the shores of the DANUBE
and the Bosphorus. Without entering into
comparison between our own condition as a
government and as people, and that of the two
great powers alluded to, and without contrast
ing our war, with Mexico with theirs upon
Russia, may we not thank God that He has cas-,
our lot upon this contiaent-that He has given
ps frugal government, and that He has emo
bled US peacefully to work out the problem tina,
man is capable Of self.government-fW Wash.
