Paying the National Debt by
SubacriptiOns.

A movement which may turn out to be Of
great Importance has just been initiated BY
the wealthy men of New York, at the sug-
gestion il is claimed, of the New York
Herald. 1t is nothing less than the pay
ment ofour entire,national debt by individual
subscriptions. Estimating the debt al three
thousand millions of dollars, il is proposed
to divide it into hundred and fifty thous.
and shares of twenty thousand dollars each.
Between eleverl and twelve hundred thous
and dollars have already been subscribed. =
Cornelius Vanderbilt has subscribed half a
million; James Gordon Bennett, forty
thousand; Robert Bonner, forty thousand:
George w. Childs, of the Philadelphia
Ledger eighty thousand. There are enough
rich men in the country TO pay the whole
debt without feeling it. Should this bo done
Of course all Four cumbreus, and in many
cases exceedingly onerous system Of taxation
would be abolished. If there is the dis,
position to carry this out as there is the
ability, there certainly would be no opposi-
tion toit. Tho accomplishment of such
grand scheme would make fne page in
history.

superiority Of Western to East.
Prp IrOODs

The Trihune's Washington correspondent,
speaking Of the review, says: Naturally, q
comparison was made between the Eastern
and Western troops. The Western men
were taller, with few boys and scarcely any
foreigners among them. Their marching
step was several inches longer, and yellow
and red boards, and ligh, hair predomnated
The officers Of the army of the Potomac con-
ce1ed that they marched better. They
moved with an elastic, springy, swinging
step, that does not belong to the Estern
boys, aud H. >ir faces were more intelligent,
self-reliant, anu determined. One could not
distinguish the otiiDsrs from the men, ex.
cept by the uniforms. Privates and officers
seemed equal in eligence and manly bear
ing On the other hand, the Eastern troops
showed more discipline and more drill. -
There was marked distinction between the
officers and men in point Of culture.
