THE FIRST YEAR,

Since the reins of the national
government passed into the hand:
of Grant one brief year has passed
away, and we can now look back a,
the results of the present admins
tration thus far. We will do so in
the line of facts and figures, leaving
all mere qlibbling to the Dem ocrat.

The bonded debt of the United
States has been reduced to the
amount of sS7.134, 7S2,s4 between
the first Of March, 1869 and the
first OF March, 1870. The reouc-
ton or the dett from the first OF
March, 1865 TO the first of March,
1869, the last year of Johnson
administration was only $685.

traitors, for the circumstances are
substantially the same and the
difference in favor of Grants first
year is ISL, us, 064,3S. THIS shows
a progress in the payment OF the
public debt, in the retrenchment OF
expenses, and the collection of the
revenue that is certainly gratifying
TO the country.
During Grants first year gold has
declined from 1888 to Slip. This
shows the improved credit of the
government on account of its sound
financial policy and presents the
conclus ion that We are rapidly and
safely approaching specie pay
ments.
These facts are a positive evi
denee that the adm Illustration oil

In addition to the clear, compre-
hensive slater of Ser ator Nor
ton with regard to the financial af-
fairs Of this State, an exchange pre-
sents the following facts:
l. That the rate OF State taxation
is now as low as it was during the
last Democratic administration of
the State.
=. That the annual surplus of the
Treasury now exceeds q million OF
dollars, and hence the whole for
eign debt will be paid merit year.
3. That in addition to these pay
men.s of the debt, about one million
of dollars have been paid for neces-
sary Improvements; as The Normal
School, the Soldiers Home, the
House of Refuge, etc.
4. That the two and q half millions
of fraudulent bonds issued by a
Democratic agent of State, have
beea destroyed, or driven out Of
sight.
5. That me only loss of public
funds during the last ten years was
in the geld gambling investments
by Democratic Commissioners oil
Sinking Fund.
In view Of the results Of the Stat'
and National administrations, sucl
