The public debt of Prussia is very light,
and has been almost entirely incurred since
1850. While six and half years of the
large French annual revenue is represented
by the amount of the French debt, that of
Prussia amounts to only two half years Of
her moderate annual receipts. The total
debt of the kingdom, both old and new
provinces, amounts to SIS, 497 500, exclu-
sive of the small liabilities incurred by the
annexed provinces for the establishment Of
State railroads. The revenue and expendi-
ture of the other German States is unim-
portant. The same economy is apparent in
their financial affairs as in the Prussian, the
standing armies being the only serious
burden.
1t follows from the solvency and we'll
managed finances Of Prussia that her credit
is untarnished. During ifty-fve years the
German people have excepting the recent
Austrian war; been undisturbed by war,
and have been enabled to develop the
immense resources of their fertile territory
and accumulate immense material wealth.

The total revenue received in France last
year was $425, 744, 800, being $4,000, gig in
excess of our own. This sum was raised by
custom duties and an elaborate system Of
inland revenue, which directly affects all in
terests in the empire. The principal items
of fhis revenue were:

These figures serve to show the sources
relied upon for revenue in France, and
which will have to bear in the future large
portion of the present war expenditure,
The estimated expenditure for the same
period was $44O, 66s, 100, formed Of items
such as the following:

from indirect taxes to the amount Of

Of the ZOllverein customs.
The State railroad, mines, FORCES and

greater part of the balance. In the esti-

Of the Bel10erentss
From the New York Tribune
Our civil war proved the vital Importance
of q large revenue in determining the fate
of an armed conflict. Military operations
were never more expensive than at present,
and, as in the case Of Spain, nations are
liable, in the progress of hostilities, to find
themselves with an ample number of men,
without the ability to place them in the
field. It is therefore necessary, in order
to fully comprehend the strength Of the bel
their revenues, expenditures and liabilities.
The following statements furnish ample de-
tails on these important matters:
