FJY1YCE-PUBLIC DEBT.

Mr.. James A. Gibbons of our City has rem
dered the American People signal service by
presenting in q neat 12mo. of 2GS pages, "a COM
prehensive account of "Thc Public Debt of
"the United States" wherein he considers its
Organization, its Liquidation, the Administra-
ton of the Treasury, and the Financial Sys-
TEN. We know no other volume or exhibit
which presents SO lucid or exhaustive an ex-
hibt of our National Debt and we urge every
one interested in Public Securities to buy and
keep this work for daily perlIsal and refer
ence.
The study of Finance is shamefully neglected
among us. Men who should know better talk
of taxes as though they were imposed from
pure caprice or malignity, and wonder why the
cotton Tor some other tax was imposed, as
though the chief end of taxation were annoy
ance or injury-to the taxpayer Congress has
been censured for having, in the agony of
our great struggle, levied taxes on almost
everything, when it is very doubtful that any
other system of taxation would have proved 80
productive or been so patiently borne. Doubt
less, it is well, when you have leisure and
choice, to collect the needed revenue from few
rather than many impOsts and to levy these on
luxuries, like Liquors and Tobacco rather than on
Grain, Brick, Cattle, Clothing &C., &c. But, in
the crisis of great war, money must be had in
vast amounts, or Public Credit falters and armies
famish and dissolve: so vigorous Government
taxes right and left, anxious only TO raise
as much as possible without paralyzing Pro-
ductive Industry, Congress erred only in
hesitatiDg too long and taxing too timidly.
Had it, within week after its assembling
in July, 1861, imposed taxes Of 81 per gallon
on Liquors, 30 cents per pound on manu-
featured Tobacco, 10 per cent. on all incomes
from $500 up to S5,000 and 20 per cent on
all incomes above $5,OO0-all to be reduced
one-half on the day after the Rebellion should
be completely subdued-no one would have
been seriously harmed, while our Public Debt
would have been One Thousand Millions less
than it is to-day. For the War was half
fought with Currency SO deprecated that
everything driven, ridden, eaten, worn, or fired
away by our soldiers, cost twice what it other
wise would have done; hence, with One Mil
lion men under arms, and constantly marching
or fighting, the expense was fearfully magni-
fed.
We trust many will buy, read, and keep Mr.
Gibbons's book. We trust very few will put
faith in it. Mr.. Gibbons writes lucidly and
vigorously but he has boundless conceit Of
his own abilities as a fnancier, and a CORE
spending contempt for the incapacity and
ignorance of such comparative pigmies as
