for winter consumption, while sup
plying a gratifying surplus each Au-

The Figures.

The Radical Press is now nearly unant
imous, or the Radical Organization is
being used to subserve the purpose of the
bondholders. They demand that the
$40 bonds shall be paid in gold, prin-
cipal as we'll as interest. They propose
to pay them, say thirty years hence. Let
us see how, under their plan, the case
will stand:
The United States Government to the
bondholders, debtor: To 100000, 600
of legal tender greenbacks, to wit: when
they are worth fifty cents on the dollar,
being in gold worth 81 100000, 200.
Credit: The United States pay on in
terest six per cent in gold on the bonds,
for forty years, s120. .00O, 600 in gold each
year, or 81, 800, 600, 900 total interest.
Then the principal, $4,000, 100000
in gold, is to be paid, making in all &c.
800,000,000 for what the government
borrowed, viz; 81 100000. Those
who are in favor .of this kind Of 6nan-
ciering-this paying the debt seven
times over--will vote the bondholders'
alias the Radical ticket.-Enquirer.

Marshal Mel openly for war.

Paris (April l9) Correspondence of the
London Morning Avertiser.l
The Ministers are divided on the great
question of the day. M. Rouher and
folr Of his colleagues are all for peace,
and Marshall Mel is as openly for war.
The Marshal told his guests at his last
party, when they asked him his opinion
of NJ. Baroche's speech, s.that he had not
seen it; that such matters did not concern
him. IF the Emperor thought it neces-
Lsary to put the country into an efficient
state of armament, it was his duty to
carry out his sovereign's orders, regard
less of any clamor.' The Marshal is
certainly having his own way, as far as
preparations for war are concerned; and
the enormous military expenditure, and
the anxiety to which it gives rise, dam
up the sources of commerce. 1t is ex-
pected that the Emperor will shortly go
to Orleans, to attend the Joan of Are
tstes in that city, and It's hoped that he
will make speech there.
