The Pubic Debt.

We published, a lew days ago, the
resolutions introduced in the Senate Of
Virginia, and referred TO the Committee
on Courts of Justice concerning the ap
portionment OF the public debt. That
committee, OH last W ednesday, reported
the following substitute TO- the former
resolutions, which, after brief debate,
was laid over until after the holidays.
Whereas the constitutions Of both
Virginia aud West Virginia impo-e
upon the respective Legislatures OF sand
States The duty to prov de by law tor
the adjusting betw en- them the pr, ppr-
ton of tie public debt contracted prior
to January /, 1861, proper to be borne
and assumed by each oil said States res
pectivelv; and whereas this State has
made repeated efforts to procure such
settlement with West Virginia, all Of
which efforts have proved unavailing;
and whereas it is essential TO the fnan-
cal interest OF Virginia that said settle

practicable, and this Safe being un-
willing to proceed at law against West
Virginia until all other means are ex-
bausted: Therefore,
Be il enacted, DC, That the Governor
of this Commonwealth be and is here
bv authorized to tender to the State OF
West Virginia an arbitration Of all
matters touching a full and fair appor-
tionment between said States OF tie
said public debt; and in the event OF the
acceptance Of such offer of arbitration
by West Virginia, then the Governor,
Lieutenant-Governor, President Of the
Court of Appeals, Auditor of Public
Accounts, and the Secretary of the
Commonwealth, shall appoint two arbi-
traitors on the part of this State, who
shall not be citizens Of this State, to

The Next War.

President GRANTS policy to secure

strong suit. Il he can involve the
country in another war he will be able
not only to make fortunes for some OF
his needy friends, but also to materially
promote his own chances for another
presidential term. Ii the political cal
dron can be made to boil again, he
hopes to remain upon the surface, willie
il pesce continues and an election can
be held tree from exciting influences
and the pressure OF bayonets and TIE
ripors of martial law, he and. his

public regard.
The annexation Of San Domingo
means something more than the addl-
ton Of .ome thousands OF dollars to
the private bank account OF L. D
GRANT and other holders Of Dominican
hond. 1t means also war with all the
European powers that have possessions
in the West Indies. 1t means the alb
sorption OF Hayti, Cuba, Porto Rico
Jamaica, aud the whole group OF
-
islands lying between the Cult OF
Mexico and the Atlantic ocean. II the

ment of martial law in those localities

the military government at Washing
ton. GRANT may possibly be reelected
President, Dictator, Emperor or what
ever be may wish.
Other acts Of the Administration De
side the San Domingo business, afford
color for the opinion that GRANT is
anxious for war. The delay in the
settlement of the Alabama claims, the
complaints about the fisheries, and the
II L.,
conceded sympathy of the President
with the bellicose utterances OF BUTLER
in his Boston speech, all look in the
.ame direction. There have been nu-
merous "semi-oflicial outgivIngs OF
on;nion from time to time, especially
during the past few months, that any
foreign war for which plausible pre-
+eYt could be found would be eagerly
engaged in by President GRANT Like
the traditional Irishman at Donny-
brook Fair, he is continually anxious
for somebody to tread on his coattali'
or looking for an opportunity to tread
on somebody else's. In the San Donln-
20 Job, he sees not only an opportunity
to put money in his private purse
