JACKSON STANDARD.
THURSDAY, SEPT. 16, 1869.
Paying off the Debt.

The monthly statement of the con-
dition of the Treasury for the month
ending August 81 has just been made
public. 1t is even more favorable than
was anticipated. The decrease of the
public debt during the month of August
was S5,604,23 70. This makes the
decrease of the debt for the six months
ending August 81, $40, 50O,75s 81.
Since the administration of the National
Government, then, came into RepubIi-
can hands, the national debt has been
reduced at the rate of 100 millions of
dollars per year 81 millions per month";
2 millions per week; more than quar-
ter OF million per day or twelve thou
sand dollars per hour. We have not
been able to find in the history of this
or Of any other country a better fnan-
cial showing than this. A country
which has just emerged from an ex-
haustive and wasteful war permits
itself to be taxed to such a limit that
its expenditures, which are necessarily
large, are exceeded by its annual re-
ceipts by hundred million dollars. No
Nation in the worlds history has given
such substantial evidence of loyal de-
votion to country, as this. TO put
down a rebellion which can be de-
scribed only by the word gigantic, and
then to commence the immediate ex-
tinguishment of the enormous debt
created in suppressing it, furnishes an
example of patriotism and of virtue
more than Roman, and which can be
more strongly characterized as Ameri-
can.
Now, one would suppose that when
the country is making a financial rec
ord that will rebound more to its honor
and glory than its record in the war all
citizens would desire that it should con-
tinue on in its honorable and prosper
GUS course. But our Democratic fell
low-citizens seem to be much displeas-
ed with the present state of our fnan-
Cial affairs. During the Seymour and
Grant canvass they endeavored, with
the aid of the doleful Delmar, to make
the people believe that financially the
country was going to the dogs. For
the last six months they have endeav-
ored to show that the debt has been in
creasing instead of diminishing, and
this fond delusion the party leaders have
citing to long after there was a shadow
Of basis upon which it could rest
The Democracy have well grounded
fear that il it appears TO the people that
the debt is being paid off at the rate of
a hundred millions year, their cause
is lost. Their only hope of success lies
in the financial embarrasments and dis
ssters of the Government If all goes
well in the Treasury Department, all
goes wrong in the Democratic depart
ment With the Republicans, the pros
perity of their country is the prosperity
OF their party. And nothing makes
them rejoice together and be more
heartily glad than the monthly debt
statements OfSecretary Boutwell,, which
show that the entire debt will be wiped
out of existence in less than twenty
years. The debt has been reduced FIF. |
rY MILLIONS in six months. The people
are quite able to comprehend aud con-
strue that Columbus Journal.

'"The Democracy of Ohio were very
short of material when they made up

A Coop MovE.-Major William Allen,
or, as he is better known, Claremont Alien,
has Just returned from Philadelphia, where
he has been to negotiate for the completion
of his railroad from Claremont wharf to
some point on the Norfolk and Petersburg
railroad. The Major has also offered great
inducements to capitalists and emigrants to
purchase or settle upon his vast possessions.
Already he has rented out eighteen COM
plete farms, and he is prepared to rent out
more upon very reasonable terms. Before
the war Major Allen was one Of the wealth.
est landed proprietors in the country. he
owned twenty-eight thousand acres Of land,
over thousand slaves, and his yearly in
come amounted to over eighty thousand dol
lars. 1t is estimated that his losses by the
war were something like one million of dol
lars. Although laboring under great dis
advantage with so cumbersome an estate
upon his hands in the present state Of
affairs, he is making fine progress in adapt
