The Public Debt.

Again the people of this goodly land are call
ed upon to rejoice at a material reduction of the
public debt. November shows a decrease of ST.
57l,454l3 As each month rolls up its compile
ment TO the zeal, integrity and efficiency of the
Secretary of the Treasury, and gives the public
an additional assurance of relief from the pres
sure of debt, it becomes plain that national finan.
ces are completely controllable The expendi.
lures of the government are daily decreasing,
and under the rigid system of retrenchment now
in vogue they must soon reich minimum
When this is attained, the matter of estimates
will be an easy thing
On the other hand II faithful administration
of the revenue laws will make the receipts a con-
slant quantity, except in so far as they vary
from year TO year by reason of our industrial
growth. As these desirable ends are attained
the Treasury will be freed from embarrassment,
and The debt will pass away rapidly and quietly.
In order 10 make pal pahle the immense work al
ready accomplished by Mr.. Boutwell,, we give
the monthly reduction since he catne into office

rs Jefferson Davis, ex President of the
Lost Cause Confederacy, has been elected pres
ident of the South Carolina Life Insurance
Company, at a salary of $4,000 per annum
Who shall say that treason has not been made
odious? Think of it, the man who is more
than any one else responsible for the immense
sacrifice Of human life during the war, and
whose blood -thirstness caused sixty thousand
prisoners of war to be starved, maltreate dand
murdered in the Southern prisons, is now per
mitted "to go clad in purple and fine linen, and
"to fare sumptuously every day. while the

CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE AND THE FIFrEENTH AMEND.
MENT.-ihe Importance OF ra,ify ing the fifteenth
Amendn.n has apl cared to the Democratic
friends % Chief Justice Chase in a novel and in
teresiug inrm lately. 1t is asserted by influen-
tal Democrats who favor the nomination ct
Judge Chase for President BY the Democratic Con-
vention 1872, that the ratification Of the amend
ment will e OF infinite service 10 the Democratic
partsaus o! The Chiel Justice, nasmuch as he can
bring 10 his support an immense negro vote which
no bona fle member OF the party can do: Pen
dletou, Hendricks Hoffman, General Hancock
and Others. being all on record as against negro
suffrage, cannot, it is urged, receive the nonua
tiou in ease the Fifteenth Amendment is adopted
by the required number of States and i, is fuher
urged by these friends OF Mr. Chase that the De.
mocrals cannol hope 10 beat the Republicans ex.
cept with the uiG Of the negro vote The Chief
Justice having always heen the side OF the
colored men, it is aimed that he has their syul-
patty aud confidence to greater extent than any
man in the country. In this view of the case, il
is not Improbable that many of the Democrats
will regret TO see the Amendment become part
of the Consitution.-W Washington Correspondence

va The natural effect of the late develop

fowls. Dark Brahmas of which there were yery

which would buy pair of fine horses One pair
OF Brahmas weighs twenty pounds, and several
of the male birds weigh from eleven TO thirteen
pounds, as much as IL large Sized turkey. The

The IllcOn
One OF the most serious

One OF the most serious which will
engage tue attention Of .rnt Congress is
that whether the tax upon incomes shall or shall
not be cnatinued AS is well known, the law
authorizing that tax expires by Limitation on the
ALI of March next, and there is loud demand
for its entire abolition by a large and influential
class of citizens, composed of men who are them
selves subject to the tax, the burdens OF which
it is perhaps very natural they should wish to
escape But there is another. and probably a
much more numerous class who ca 4 see no inins-

The BIBLE IN THE SCHOOLS Sin regard to the
question of the exclusion OF the Bible from the
public schools, it seems from the following, cut
from tho Harrisburg Telegraph that the exclusion
of the Bible will not reconcile the Catholics to
the common school system
A communication in the Boston Traveller
signed, "a Catholic Priest" says Catholics
would not be satisfied with the Public Schools
even if the Protestant Bible and every vestige of
religious teaching were banlshed from them ;
but he is grossly in error WHEN he asserts that
they will therefore endeavor to convert them into
Catholic Schools. They will build or buy and
support their own Catholic schools, and they will
call upon Protestants to provide their own
schools for their own children, where they can
teach them any religious doctrine they choose ;
but they will not be taxed either for educating
the children of Protestants, or for having their
own children educated in schools under Protes-
tant control" ~ NA4h @Aal@ -fi'
| Possibly this writer speaks without due
authority, but there are other indications which
lead US to believe that the Catholic Church is
about to assume the position here stated and if
so it will open new and important question to
be determined ia the near future
