Constitution creates an inyeterste antaeo-

friends at Washington, especially.to those
who would form new party, if you are
determined that we should choose between
Radicalism and Copperheadism,, fear
there is danger of making Radicals of us
all. | believed could live under Radical
ism, but think not under Copperheadism.
If our men at Washington viii look to the
people there viii be no difficulty upon these
questions at all. There viii be no Congress.
party, and no president party. am for
Congress whenever Congress is right, and
am for the President whenever he is
right; but | will not go one step with ei-a

we feel here. In that Union party will
stand side by side with the Radicals or any
body else ready to make CANNON cause

their allies of the North.

For fear his fumes would choke her,

The Rebel Press on the Davis Trial.

The manner in which the recon
structod look upon the proposed
trial Of JEFF. Davis is shown By the
following paragraph from Mondays
Richmond Examiner
As will be seen under our regu-
lar Geographic head, the Grand Jury
Of the United States District Court,
in session at Norfolk, have found a
true bill against Jefferson Davis
This does not surprise us, when it
il known that such men were on
that jury as Wardwell, Col. lnman,
trustworthy Dudley and somebody
calling himself b. Davis, and two
other creatures William NJ Tausley
and W. Fay all known here in
Richmond as members of the notori-
Gus First Club, sworn to hang JEFF
ferson Davis, If possible These
creatures were ordered to Norfolk
BY Judge Underwood, for the oeca-
siop and to accomplish the purpose.
The infamous deed being accomplish
ed, the cohelave dispersed, with the
notice that they would convene in
this city On the Goth proximo, when
doubtless the trial Of Mr.. Davis viii
take place. Since the days when
courtsand juries were first Instituted,

interest as the trial Of this roprescn-

Our National Debt.


The United States owe a Public
Debt OF nearly Three Billions Of Dol.
lars, most OF it drawing 6 or Z 3 10
per cent. int rest Now that the
War is over, the Union saved, and
our Expenditures so reduced that we
are more than paying our way, 81
that we are contracting no more debt
but rathe@ paying of, the Govern
ment j. about TO make an effort to
reduce the rate Of interest to fre per
cent, and appropriate the money
thus saved to the reduction Of the
principal-a policy which, if adopted
and sternly persisted IN, will pay the
Debt entirely within about thirty
years.
There is some wild talk oftbis pro
.iect Of Republication, Lu5 there il no
shadow ofuuthin this. Every exist
ing loan or obligation is to be paid
according TO ilss face. Every one
who has lent the Government money
at a certain rate is to have that rate
paid him regularly till his loan falls
due and then he is to have his prn
cipal according to contract. But the
Government can borrow peace, with
a dimin shing debt cheaper than it
could in war, when we needed to
borrow Fifty Millions more each
month it therefore proposes to Dor
row At five pr cent. the wherewithal
to pay at maturity lis loans drawing
six or seven and thirty hundrcdths
per cent. Then, BY continuing Is
pay into the Treasury csiy 80 much
As we would have to Pay II the inter
est had not been reduced, we cam
very soon wipe out our great Debt.
But can the money be borrowed
at five per cent?
We hope it may, and trust il can
be, because--l. The Government IL
sure pay. ,. Whoever has Govern
mont bonds ard needs money can
borrow on them as collateral at low
er rates, and with more ease, than he
could get loans or any ether security
3. They arc to b. absolutely free
from taxation, Federal State, or
Municipal whereas all other securi-
ties are taXed-most Of them heavily
4. They can always be sold off hand
for cash, and with little loss. These
considerations, we hope, win ind &C
thousands to prefer these at FIVE per
cent cent. to other securities at six
or seven.
Yet ibis is 50 great and bencfcent
an undertaking that it may we'll
command The best efforts Of every
good citizen. Thcreis noman among

sion Of the Debt II. We estimate
