The National Finances.

The detailed statement Of the Treasury
Department, showing the present amount OF
the national debt, which we published yes.
terday morning, represents that debt AS hav-
in amounted, ON the 18th of May, 10 four
hundred and ninety one millions. OF this
debt about seventy millions existed before
the accession of the present administration,
leaving about four hunded and twenty mil
lions as the amount of debt created in the
fifteen months il has been in power. Our
war debt accordingly, has been accumula-
ting at rate not exceeding an average of
million day. fact in gratifying contrast to
the wild statements current during the win

was spending two or three millions day

With a close approximation TO the amount

can estimate the wants Of the Treasury for

this $50, 600, 900 will consist OF legal tender
