CONFEDERATE TREASURY NoTEs wete quoted on
the street yesterday at three and five dolla RS per
thousand dollars. The purchasers mostly par
ties owing and having due TO them debts
tracted in the Confederate currency, the agree
ment between the parties being that each shall pay
and receive his dues in that defunct currency
Others again are buying upon speculation, to sell
as souvenirs TO the soldiers Of the Union army and
civilians from the North, who have never seen
genuine Confederate ''promise to pay" and desire
to obtain some memento ofthe "Great Rebellion"
There are plenty and to spare for all. Several
parties, Wa understand, have entered into the pur-
chase and sale of the notes as a business and are
making good, genuine money by it.

The creation Of national debts is not mod

of Great Britain was begun by raising mil.

amount to eighty millions Macaulay says tina
historians and orators pronounced the case To-

that, although, By taxing its energies to III,

MsSlulsy, was England given over, but again
she was more prosperous than ever before.

In 1918. this debt had been swelled up to the
