The Finances OF the War.

The Hon. James Dixon, in an eloquent
and patriotic speech delivered at the
Union meeting in Hartford, dwelt upon
the ability of the country to sustain the
expenses of the war, and upon the secu-
rity which the national loan afforded as
an investment. On this point be said:
Look at England. You say our ex-
penses are large, and so they are. Some
estimate them at one million of dollars a
day. But what we're the expenses of
England during her war with Napoleon
From 1903 to 1916, with less than eigh-
teen million inhabitants, her expenses
were one million three hundred thousand
dollars a day for a period of thirteen
years. For one hundred days previous
to the battle of Waterloo her expenses
were five millions of dollars a day. Of
this vast sun a large proportion was ex-
pended on the continent Of Europe, while
our entire expenditure is at home. If
for thirteen years England could expend
one million three hundred thousand dol
lars abroad, cannot we do ii for one or
TWO years, if necessary, every dollar
meanwhile remaining at home! Interest
therefore, no less than patriotism, re-
quires US TO subscribe for the loan"
