BILE features of the present financial situa.
tion, is the low rate of interest at which
the whole amount of the loans have been
secured. In country where the lowest
legal rate Of interest anywhere established
is six per cent, and where capital always
looks for and often gets a much larger
return, that government with half its
territory in revolt, and the most expensive
war ever kno"n on its hands, should be
able to negotiate such immense loans at so
much less than the current rates, is proof
both of rare sagacity in management and
of rare confidence among the people. The
difficult part of the matter of government
finance has been gotten over. The future
of the war will be continually
decreasing. The immense purchases of
arms, wagons, horses, ships, and other
material which we're necessary when every

York Uorzd, a good financial authority,
judges that the "public debt on the 1st Of
July will be. say, s52O,O0O,OO0. OF this
sl5O, 100000 will consist of legal tender
notes, paying no interest, leaving the
amount of interest drawing debt 1910, ,O00,-
900. The interest on this for the first six
months of the fiscal year, at six per cent,
s11, 100000. During the ensuing SIX
months the debt will have increased prob
ably not more than 100000, making
the interest for the ensuing six months On
the debt existing on the first Of January,
s15,6O0,Oo0 That is to say, the total
interest accruing on the debt during the
next fiscal year will not exceed $50, 900, 600
-an easy manageable sum if the war
should close and the ordinary expenses of
the government be reduced to S100,000,-
900 within the year." This statement of
the case we judge to be little too fatter-
ing, but it is clear that all solicitude as to
the bankruptcy of the government is from
this time unwarranted

DEMOCRACY,

The central idea in Democracy is, that it
is ga government Of the people )" made
by them, and for their especial benefit.
AS consequence, that political party
which adopts that class Of ideas best calcu-
lated to benefit the whole people, is the
real Democratic party in the Nation.
BY this standard compare the Democracy
Of Pierce and Buchanan with the Republi-
can Democracy Of Lincoln in reference to
the settler on the public lands Pierce and
Buchanan, to crafty an aristocratia, monied
class in the North, and slave oligarchy in
the South, did all they could to make Kan
sas Slave State, while Lincoln opposed
the proposition. One opposed, the other
advocated, the passage of the Homestead
Law. One hurried up the Land Sales and
thus plunged hundreds of settlers in the
Kansas Valley into hopeless debt; the
other has passed a Homestead Bill allow
ing each actual settler to enter. at cost of
surveying, one hundred and sixty acres of
land, thus restoring back to man the home
God gave him, and enabling the masses to
possess the land instead of a slave and
monied class. Need we ask which is the
real Democratic party? Is it the one
which has been for years under the control
of the monied and slave power of the
Nation, or the one whose central idea is a
government for the people?
Had Fremont been elected, to-day the
settlers would have orned Meir oun homes
instead of having heavy mortgage hang

tiers of this valley, which is the true De-
mocracy? The party which goes ",or the
people" or the one which fayors the past
policy of privileged classes?
