National Debts and U. S. Stocks.

The creation Of national debts is not a
modern improvement, but the ability OF
great nation to provide for great debt, and
10 make it ehc most convenient and best
form Of personal property, is modern won
der. The debt Of Great Britain was begun
BY raising a million sterling by loan IN
1852, and when her great contest with
Louis XIV. was terminated, the debt had
reached fifty millions. Many statesmen
and economists were then alarmed at the
great burden which had been imposed upon
the industry of the country, but when the
war Of the Austrian succession had swelled
this amount to eighty millions, Macaulay
SAYS that historians and orators pronounc-
ed the case TO be desperate. But when the
war again broke out, and the national debt
was rapidly carried up to one hundred and
forty millions, men of theory and business
both pronounced that the fatal day had GER
tainly arrived. David Hume said that, al
though, by taxing its energies to the ut
most, the country might possibly live
through it, the experiment must never be
repeated, even a small increase might be
fatal. Granville said the nation must sink
under it unless some portion Of the load
was borne by the American Colonies, and
the attempt to impose this load produced
the war Of the revolution, and, instead Of
dtnsishing, added another hundred millions
70 the burden Again, says Macaulay, was
England given over, but again she was
more prosperous than ever before. But
when at the close Of her Napoleonic wars
in 1916, this debt had been swclled up to
the enormous sum Of over eight hundred
millions sterling, or four thousand three
hundred million dollars, or nearly one half
the entire property of the United Kingdom,
the stoutest heart, the frmest believer IN
national progress and national Development,
might well have been appalled,. But in the
very face of this mountain Of Obligation
to say nothing Of her vast colonial posses
sions,-the property Of the British nation
has been more than trebled, and her debt
is now charge Of but l2i per cent. against
it. Al that Great Britain has done in pay
ing her debt, we shall do, and more, with
ours. We have vast territories untouched
by the pillow, mines Of all precious metals
Of which VIC have hardly opened the doors,
population full Of life, energy, enterprise
and industry, and the accumulated wealth
OF money and labor Of the old countries
pouring into the lap of our giant and ever
to-be-united republic. During the fiercest
and most exhausting of all possible wars,
we have demonstrated our national strength
and all the world over, national strength
Is but another name for national credit
''As good as United Stocks" will soon be
synonymous all the world over with "as
good as British Consols." For our part,
we think e. S. Treasury note, bearing
seven and three-tenthS annual interest, is
Just as much better than British Consols as
the rate Of interest is higher. Some Of our
timid brethren, who shipped their gold TO
London and invested in consols, are now
glad to sell out and i.vest at home at a
round loss,-and serves them right.

DR.. VIM Elder, of the Treasury
Department, has prepared a pamphlet,
in which he shows that our National
debt can be paid in twenty years, from
1870. Assuming the whole public debt
to amount to $4,000, eco, 600, the inter
est on it will not exceed S126, 900, 600
The income tax will yield the current
year $260,o00,o00, and the revenue
from customs and other sources, will in
crease this amount to 1925, 900, 00o,
which will leave SlG5, 0C0. 600, for ordi-
nary expenses. The annual product of
capital wealth from 1850 to 1860 was
twenty-six per cent. But assuming it
to be % per cent. from the year 1870,
one per cent. Of the total product of the
country in twenty years would amount
to $4,000, 000.000-the whole amount Of

Once upon time. some boys who
lived in one of the " estern States made
a kite so large as to require somewhat
heavy weight to be attached to it in or
der to preserve its equilibrium As
they were searching for something to
suit their purpose, an unlucky cat hap
pened to stray Shat way SO they caught
her, and bound her to the tail of the
kite. There was fine breeze stirring,
and giving the kite the proper impetus,
it mounted high in the air. But pussy
did not enjoy her aerial voyage, and
manifested her dissatisfaction by using
her voice in a way ,ss musical than nat
ural
That evening a man equally distin-
guished for his fanaticism and credulity
called at neighbor's house.
"You know [ told you about tina!

time I warned you faithfully"
"Well, [ don't remember; what proph-
eey do you mean z"
"Why that the whole of this State,
and part of several others, will be sunk
afore long, by an earthquake
Il don't believe any such thing" said
the neighbor.
Il tried hard to disbeleve it, but ]
had proof of it this afternoon.
"Proof? how could that be 2"
"Why, as [ VAS walkin' over my per-
later field, feelin' kind O solemn like
about its goin to be sunk so soon,
herd somethin' over head that / thought
