/, Nevertheless the DemocEatic adminislra-
tion-ftpm the list OfJsnuary, 1852 until the
Sist of December, ls55-was enabled tore.
duce the principal Of the public debt by the
purchase of out standing bonds to the extent
Of $I,6IO,46I,7s. [See Report Of Auditor
of State, December 81, 1855, Page7.]
Since then it does not appear that any re-
duction of the public debt has been made By
means drawn from the treasury as surplus
funds. The unpaid bonds falling due on
the Slst Of December, 1856, have all been
taken up by en- issue Of nero bonds. having
twenty or twenty FIVE years to, run. The
Democratic policy of of purchasing the out
standing bonds seems to have been reversed
on the incoming OF the new administration .
by the Commissioned of,ihs sinking fund
although am not aware ;heethe statute to
which have referred has been repealed BY
legislative action, and 'thus new accumuia-
tons of interest have been saddled on the
people, from which there is no escape, for
nearly quarter Of century. And, contra
ry to all expectation, those new bonds, hax.
ing so long time to run, were sold last fall
at only 1903! ~.
What become Of the money which, in the
meantime, accumulated in the treasury, from
taxation and other sources, or to what pur-
poses it was applied, seem to be matters of
conjecture. One thing, however, is conce-
ded on all hands-it is not in The treasury.
where it ought to have been; and hence the
present condition of things. .t.. :,
Very respectfully, your obedient servant.

The Stale Debt Of OhiO-A few
Facts i'm Contrast. v

Under the administration Of Salmon P.
Chase, the State taxes have remained just as
high as they were when he came into office
What has he done with the money? But
very little of the State Debt has been paid
off by The Chase administration.
In 1856, it paid off $2I 90
In 1857, it paid off by premium $4,000 90

Here is an annual average of more than
HALF MILLION OF DOLLARS paid
off each year up to the time when chase
went into office. Since that time, the sum
total that has been paid off is barely $S4,SV
although the STATE TAXES have Kept
up as high as eper a..
lit msy be claimed as an offset TO the
above. that the Chase admiDistratien has
been paving off certain ordinary debts that
were ieit unpaid by the Democracy. = Ad.
nit that such is the fact, and what does it
avail thema When the old whig abolition
party went out Of power. in January, lsos'
thew left similar debt to embarrass the ac-
ton of their Democratic successors; or, I'm
other words, they stole from the Striking
Fund $229 900 in order to meet the ordlnary
expenses of the government and 70 prevent
the drafts Of the State from being put 70 pro-

there are many who are ready to testify to their efica-

their curative properties. No family should be with

"YOUNG AMERICA!'
Leavittss Latest Improved Portable Mill,
- .".& EvrEfT GTnD1% 5@ga twS

THIS is the most valuable and economical Portable
i Grain Mill ever offered to the public, as is freely
acknowledged by all who have seen it work, for grind
ing cob and corn. Mr.. Leavitt was the originator of
this description of mills and has spared no expense in
bringing them to perfection. The mill is SO simple in
its construction and SO few in its parts that any per-
son can manage it, and for grining or crushing corn
and cob together, grinding fine meal from corn, etc,
has no equal. At a recent trial of mills during the fair
of the Maryland Agricultural Society, the result was:
Young America or Excelsior Mill, 81 min... 10 revo.
Little Giant Mill ,.....-...... a min....l5 revo.
Maynard's Champion Mill,"....- S min...20 revo.
Colburn's Mil, "A min.... 80 evo.
The Young America will grind more corn: or corn
and cob, in The same time and of the same quality,
than any mill extant. These mills can be procured in
