Paying off the National Debt.

The propositions stated eome time
since, that the national debt be paid off
by subscription If $4,000 each by
200 600 perso,s, continues to excite re.
marx. A writer in the New York Jour.
nat Of C"mmetce (Tn, mas Allen, OF Pits
f'Id,) is Of the opinion that it will be
necessary TO hold out some pecupiary
iuduccment. and proposes thst the pub
lie lands be divided amoog the subscri.
bars at the the rate of 5000 acres oil
land for every $4,000 subscribcd-a
larger amount for those who exceed that
sum, aud less for smaller contributions
Or, as the d.b. may reach three thousand
millions, the proportion of land given
may be fixed to suit the actual indebt.
edness of the country. Mr. Allen says:
"For one. I should be villingto pay
the $4,000 if I could thus end the
heavy taxation to which am otherwise
to be subjected on account OF this war
for the rest of my life. And it is clearly
the interest Of all those persons, firms
or corporations now paying Federal tax
@. exceeding the interest annually on
$4,000, to do likewise. There are
many persons whose interest it would be,
for the sine reason, to pay twice, thrice,
or ten times that amount, and the case OF
the wea',hiest, it would be cheap if they
could commute for half million"
The B ,ston Journal says that one oil
the "merchaut princes of that city, is
an en- hu i,>ric advocate of this scheme,
and will give $500 900 towards wipiue
out the national debt.

Railroads are the hands that gather up

made and raised to the manufacturers and

cities that had slowly accumulated popu-

secure that its trade would grow with the
