They then stripped his shirt off and

The party proceeded to the residence

National nehts and U. :. stocks.
The creation OF national debts is not
a modern Improvement, but the ability
OF great nation to provide fora great
! debt, and to make it the mot convcn.
| iant and best from Of personal property
is a modern .onder. The debt OF
Great Britain was begun by raising a
million sterling by loan in i522, and
when he: great contest with Louis XIV
was terminated, the debt had reached
fifty millions Many statesmen and
economists were then all"mcd at the
great burden which had hrcn imposed
upon the industry of tho country, but
when the war OF tho Austrian succsr,o
had swc''"a this amount TO eighty
millions, Macaalsy says that historians
and orators pronounced. the case to be
desperate. But when ,,ar again broke
ou', ana the national debt was rapidly
carried up to one hundred and forty
millions, men Of theory and business
both pronounced that tho fatal day
had certainly arrived. David Hume
said that, although, by taxing its ener.
yies to the utmost, the country might
possibly live through il, the experiment
mus: never be repea'ed,-cven a small
increase might lc fatal. Granville
said the nation must sink under it unless
some portion Of the load was borne by
the American Colonies, and the at
tempt to impose this load produced
the war of the revolution, and, instead
Il diminishing, added another hundred
millions to the burden. Again, says
Macaulay, was England given over,
bnt again she was more prosperous
than ever bttcre.s But when at the
close Of her Napolcnic wars in ls16,
this deb, had been swe!led mp to the
enormous sum Of over eight hundred
millions sterling, or four thosand three
hundred million dollars, or nearly one
half the entire property of tho United
Kingdom, the stontest heart the firnes,
believer in national progress and Via
'ic1al development, might well have
been appalled,. Bu, in the very face of
this mountain TO say nothing Of her
vast colonial possessions the property
Of the British nation has been more
than ,rebled, and her debt is now q
charge Of but l2A per cent. agains,
it. All that Great Britain has done in
paying her debt, we shall dc, and more
with ours. We have vast territories
untouched by the rlow, mines Of all
precious metals Of which VIC have hard
~ opened the doors, population full Of
life, energy, enterprise and Industry,
and III" accumulated wealth of money
and labor Of the old countries pouring
into the lap Of our giant aud ever.to.
be united republic. Daring the fierce
and most cxhaus,ing If all possible
wars, We have demonstrated our national
strcngth-and all the world over,
national strength is but another name
for national credit. GAS good as United
Stocks will soon be synonymous the
world over with "as good as British
Consols." For part, we think U. S.
Treasury note, bearing seven and
tnree-tcn,hs annual interest, is just as
much better than British Consnls "A
the rate OF interest is higher. Some Of
our t,mid brethren, who shipped their
gold TO london and invested in consols
are now glad to sesi ovt and invest at
