The public debt Of Mexico, which made
40 much talk in connection with the Tor
eign invasion Of the country, Is by no
means formidable. Tha. portion-nearly
the whole--which Ia due abroad amounts
to about S95, ,0O0, ,000 ofwhich s75 ,000, 900
are due TO Englishmen. The majority OF
the latter will be amply content II they
get their interest regularly paid. Nearly
all the debt is ut three per cent. interest,
and an official document puts the whole Of
the interest money payable abroad at g.
100000 per annum. The ordinary annual
expenditures Of the Mexican Government
are not much above eight and a quarter
millions. The internal debt prior to the
late war was nearly extinguished by the
sales Of church property.
1t will be seen, therefore, that q mode
rate revenue compared with the undoubted
resources ofthe country, and ordinary good
management, will suffice to put Mexico
on safe financial footing There will pro-
badly be some difficulty in fixing upon
the amount Of liabilities to be assumed by
Mexico in consequence Of the Imperial
episode. Ii is we'll known that Maximil-
liam endeavored to have recognized for
eign debt more than double the amount
conceded by the Liberal Government, and
his annual expenditures were about four
times those OF the administration preced.
ing him. But these figures will probably
be discarded by the Mexican people as Of
no account to them. Those who invested
in the great Latin speculation must pay
for the failure out Of their own pockets.
1t is thought that the sum will approach
three hundred millions Of dollars, To the
Mexicans fair field for national progress
is now open. Their burdens are not heavy,
their resources are ample. All they want
is manhood enough to avail themselves Of
their opportunity.

TELLING TALES OUT OF SCHOOL.

In discussing the responsibility for the ia
nous cry ION to Richmond" by which the
Tribune, in 1861, urged the movement of an
army which resulted in Bull Run, the Roches-
ter Democrat says:
The editor of the Democrat was employed
editorially upon the Tribune in the early part
of 1861, taking the place of Mr.. Dana, whose
eyes did not at that time endure night work.
At the same time he was, during the day, asso-
ciated with Mr.. Dana on the NeaC 4nocricGn
CgclopRdiG. He is, therefore, able TO speak
with confidence of the management OF the Tn
6une at that period Mr.. Greeley, as he him
self admitted in the article OF July 70, was
mainly responsible for urging the rash advance
upon Manassas, and was wholly responsible
for the far worse articles which at an earlier.
period encouraged secession. Those articles,
we know, were strongly disapproved by Mr..
Dana, as they were by every one else connect
ed with the Tribune, except the writer of them.
The disagreement between Mr.. Greeley and
Mr. Dana which led to the latter's withdrawal
from the Tribune, to the detriment of that pa
per, had its origin in Mr.. Dana's opposition to
Mr.. Greeley's unWise and unpatriotic views as
to the best mode of dealing with the rebellion.
He suppressed some of Mr.. Greeley's most out
rageous articles, and his only fault as manager
of the Tribune was that he did not suppress
more. He yielded too much his own better
Judgment to the whims of his nominal chief,
whose knowledge of turnips is unimpeachable,
but whose opinions on politics or public affairs
are of very little real value. Mr. Greeley
writes well, and has good deal of skill in at
lacking error and in denouncing meanness and
villainy; but if he had the management of a
party he would run it into the ground in a
twelve month and if he were, as the deluded
public supposes, the real editor of the Tribune,
that excellent journal would rapidly fall from
its high estate. The owners Of the Tribune
are well aware of this, and while they value
highly, as they ought to, the prestige of Mr..
Greeley's name, they take good care to put
viceroy over him in the shape of a managing
editor, who really conducts the paper, and
whose chief difficulty always consists in keep
ing the good Horace from doing foolish things.

THE MILE STONE.

Along road two Irish lads
One summers day were Walking
And all the while, with laugh and shout,
In lively strain were talking
About the fair about the girls,
And who were best at dancing: ~ .vr
While at each pretty face they met
Their eyes were brightly glancfng.
And as they strobe for many a mile
They grew in time quite frisky,
And now and then, from lip to lip
They passed the darling whisky.
At length, before them in the hedge,
The roadside view commanding,
They saw, its white sides lettered DER,
A mile stone lonely standing.
They read and quickly dofed their hats,
With sorrow in their faces;
Then turning with reverential awe
They stepped back several PAGES.
Speak low, we're near the dead, said one
- His grave we'll not be troubln;
An old man surel 100, and
His name is Miles from Dublinl"
