National Resources.

We all remember the dolefui forebo-
dings of Copperheads and other secesh
sympathizers over the condition in
which the conclusion of the war would
leave the country. Horrible visions
of the enormous debt with which the
Government would be encumbered
were evoked, and nothing but pictures
Of ruin and desolation were presented
to the public gaze. Well, the time to
pronounce upon these theories has
come, and what do we find to be the
result? Is the country left without
money TO pay its debts and transact
its business Is the Government
straitened for means with which to
defray its expenses and meet its obi.
cations? The returns of jay Cooke
4 Co., agents for the negotiation of
the 730 loan, tell the whole story.
On the tenth day of the present month
the subscriptions to the loan amount
ed To- the enormous sum of sereateen
millions four hundred and forty thousand
doll,rs, and among the vast throng
rushing to invest, were five thousand
and eighty-one working men and wo-
men, with their patriotic offerings Of
fifties and hundreds of dollars. just
think of that. Does this look like
Government bankruptcy |! So far from
such being the case, the Government
is having more money thrust upon il
than it wants. The people not only
! have more means left than their owr
