general replies with some warmth, ';Then pay

general" l lave paid you ! have three
times promised to pay you, and is not promise
ofpaymenta sufficient payment Pray, sir,
how many promises do you think it takes to
make a dollar?" Probably the general would
boot the fellow ftom his presence, and never
ask him for the dollar again, and take good
care that he never owed him another. Aud
yet General Butter calls upon the government
OF the United States to do this very thing with
Its creditors kttf M teEsaa
But General Buffers scheme not only pro-
poses to redeem one promise with another
which is never to be redeemed. bulto redeem o
promise which draws interest by one which
does not draw interest, To illustrate this we
will suppose that General Butler holds note
against Charles Sumner for one thousand dol
lars payable In two to five years. at the option
of the maker with interest payable semi an
nually. The two years are expired and Mr..
Sumner goes to General Butler and says,
General am tired Of paying interest on that
note and wish to pay it," General Butler re-
plies, "Very well, you have a right to take 1t
up" Mr.. Sumner offers him his own note
for the amount without interest The General
says to Mr. Sumner, II have your promise to
pay already. fyou wish to take up the note
pay me the money" Mr.. Sumner replies,
General, did indeed promise to pay you so
many dollars, but you know that one promise
may always be redeemed by another Of the
same kind, unless it is otherwise expressly
provided in the promise" General Butler re-
plies, "But this is not even promise of the
same kind; il promises no interest" Mr..
Sumner, with his accustomed good nature,
replies, "Very true but, General you should
understand that as the second promise always
cancels the debt am no longer bound to pay
interest" EH
