ALincOInian Fallacy.

"The public debt has become substantial
branch Of private property"
"Men readily perceive that they cannot be
much oppressed by debt which they owe to
themselves. ."-AbrGhdHl Lincoln.
For some time after the war began, 1t
was the policy of the Republicans to deny
that public debt would result from the
conflict. As the war progressed, and the
public indebtedness increased, they cum
ningly denied its existence, or diminished
its amount by specious and fraudulent
display Of figures. Now, however, in the
fourth year Of the conflict, when the enor-
nous sum of our obligations can no lon
ger be concealed from the most eredulous
or ignorant, we are grayely told that this
debt is "substantial branch Of property
and that, even considered as peeuniary
liability, "men will readily perceive thai
they can not be much oppressed by deb
which they owe to themselves" Thu
would be an insult to the public intelli
Rence, if there were such thing as pub
lie intelligence in these frantic days. 1
debt were property" how easy it woulf
be for individuals to become rich as tn,
Rothsehilds And if q national debt i
mot oppressive" because "tho people ow
it to themselves it would be the part o
wise economy to permit the nation to con
struct all our railroads, build all on
houses, cultivate all our lands, and, il
short, be at the expense Of whatever in
wolves an outlay Of money in any enter
prise or in any branb Of business. III
debt thus created would be "substantia
property" and the bigger of course tn
better; and the people would readily per
eeive that they could not be much Op
pressed by debt which they owe I
themselves"
The great evil Of National Debt is nc
that it diminishss the aggregate Of th
National Wealth; for we may admit, fO
Arguments sake, that it does not, so lon

as the bonds are held bS,its own people.
The mischief is, that j, makes a new dis
tribution Of the wealth Of the county,
and impoverishes the many TO enrich the
few. The nation at large, considered as
such, may be worth prScissly as much
money IS before the debt was incurred.
But the people. instead of being nearly
equal possessors Of the public wealth. find
their several portions gone from them into
the hands Of comparative few Aud
the sums which once were theirs, to do
with as they pleased, are now in other
hands, as evidences Of debt. upon which
the fermer owners aro bound to pay inter
est, until such Indebtedness is paid--ii
such tims should ever be.
We may illustrate the whole matter IN
the ease of family. Suppose six broth
erS inherit 5000 each-makiug in the
aggregate $4,000. OF the six, one is
prudent. cautious, sharp, and unScrupu-
lous. The others are idle, profigate, and
unfortunate. In the coarse of years, the
thrifty brother, by one resort or another,
has obtained a mortgage of S2,5OO upon
the estate of each of his brothers upon
which they each have to pay him S25O an
nual interest. Now we can well imagine
the fortunate holder OF the mortgages pro-
claiming that the wealth OF the family is
not diminished; that the family are quite
as rich as ever they were; that the debts
are wholly owing to hsmseipes, etc. But
the five luckless fellows, who keep their
noses to the grindstone all the year round
to pay interest; who are able to make no
improvement of their property; and whc
are constrained to deny themselves even
uecessaries Of life TO meet their obliga'
tions, are unable to appreciate OF ENJOY the
family prosperity, of which the mortgagOI
of their possessions, and the recipient o.
1.-THE earnings of their toll, makes such loud
boast.
This is an exact illustration Of the Lin
colnian fallacy under consideration. The
lands, and lots. and goods, and chattels o.
ninety-nine of our people, will be under
bond and mortgage to pay an oppressive
sum in the shape of interest, to fortunate
one, of each hundred of the whole popu
lation. Still, 'tho aggregate wealth o
the whole nation is not diminished" Ih'
lucky holder Of bonds will esteem tn
debt substantial property" But whethe
the debt which the people thus owe t.
themselves will not be oppressive, the ta'
paying seasons of 1865, and future years
will determine.

Groenbacks In Nevada.

A correspondent of the St. Louis RePubli
can says
"If mas or woman designs to get his or
her name 10 the papers, all that is necessary
for them 20 do is to contract debt, aud then
pay it in legal tenders. They are immed-
atsly Published by advertisementin in the news
papers to the world as having been guilty of
paying debt in greenbacks, and the friends
Of the advertiser are warned to never trust
them, and to pass them around for the benefit
of the parties Others have adopted novel
method of giving publicity to such acts, by
having small handbill printed in heavy
mourning, stating that John Smith had this
day paid Richard Brown $50 in greenbacks at
par, for goods, as the case may be, contracted
on a gold basis. They are then posted up in
the most freQuentsd and conspicuous places
in the city, and are certain to attract uuiver-
sal attention

A public debt is public burden--and the

ces Of public debt to be owned pro rata by ev.

for it would be all the same to the people /;
but that never was and never can be the case.
The debt Of nation is always owned BY cap

(the spirits) know this to be true.
Time will test this prediction, She also
says ;
There will be one more dreft. and possibly
two for it is the intention Of the leaders of the
rebellion to arm the slaves, preposterOus as It
may seem to some. In that case FIVE hun
dred thousand more men will be required to
fil mp the ranks Of the army, as an Offset to
the new order of thing which is about to be
inaugurated by our enemies, aud also TO take
the places OF those who term of service viii

And further the spirits say not,

BILE things in the world, and were about to
