GREENBACKsA AND REPUDIATION

AND REPUTATION
The New York Tribune of Aug. 80,
in q notice of the recent address of Gen.
John C. Brown to the people of Tennes-
see, says:
Mr.. Brown favors Reputation to the
extent of paying the $40 United States
bonds in greenbacks. In other words, he
proposes to pay off an interest-bearlng
obligation by an irredeemable promise to
pay which does not bear interest.
The Tribune should be aware that, in
denouncing the proposition to pay the
5-2O bonds in greenbacks as repudiation,
it is treading very heavily upon the toes
of its partisan friends in some of the
Western States. The Radical State Con-
vention of Illinois, which was held at Pc
oria on the 9th of May, 1868, adopted
this resolution:
$50. That we denounce all forms of re-
pudiation as a national crime; and that
the national honor requires the payment
of the public Indebtedness, in the utmost
good faith, to all creditors at home and
abroad, according to the letter and spirit
of the laws under which it was contract
ed"
The late Thad. Stevens, who was chair
man of the committee that reported the
bill authorizing the issuing of the 800
bonds, claimed that the letter and spirit
of the law provided for their redemption
in greenbacks. This explains the wording
of the resolution of the Illinois Radicals.
The Radical State Convention of Ohio,
which met at Columbus on the 4th of
March, 1868, adopted the following reso-
luton:
"Resolved, That the Republican party
pledges itself to a faithful payment Of
the public debt, according to the laws
| under which the 500 bonds were issued !;
that said bonds be paid in the currency
| of the country which may be a legal
tender when the Government shall be pre-
pared to redeem such bonds
This resolution was adopted to meet
the sentiment which demanded the pay
ment of the 5 20 bonds in greenbacks.
The Radical State Convention of Indi-
ana, which assembled at Indianapolis on
the 22d of February, 1868, responded to
what was the unmistakable sentiment of
the people or that State upon the financial
questions before the country. by the adj
option of the following resolution
'Fourth-The public debt made neces-
sary by the rebellion should be honestly
paid, and all the bonds issued therefor
should be paid in legal tenders, commonly
called greenbacks, except when, by their
express terms, they provide otherwise
and paid in such quantities as will make
the circulation commensurate with the
commercial wants of the country, and sc
as to avoid too great initiation of the cur.
rency and an increase in the price OF
gold"
If to pay the 5-2O bonds in green5acks
be reputation in Gen. Brown, what is il

rolling stock and motive power to do the
heavy business anticipated by you this
fan, without an appropriation by the
State for that purpose.
seFhe Joint Committee of our Legisla-
ture appointed to investigate the affairs
of the road, recommend in their report to
the Legislature an appropriation at once
for puttingihe road in first,elass condition;
ard a bill, as learn, has been introduced
for that purpose. Should the recommend.
alton of the committee be promptly acted
upon, hope to be able to place the road
in a condition second to that of7no rail-
way in the United States, and consequent
lyin condition to keep clear OF all
freight blockades' during the ensuing
season" ,r----- ID. ID Nes- eve
Here we have confession that the
road is not able to make the repairs and
supply the rolling stock necessary to meet
the demand for transporting the products
seeking a market through that channel;
and yet it does not pay dollar into the
State treasury. That the road is doing a
heavy business is apparent from the fact
that bill is now pending before the Geor-
| gia Logislature=to lease the road for TWEEN
| ty years, at not less than $4,000 per
month in gold. There is little doubt that
| it can be leased for this sum, and pay the
lessees a handsome profit. 1t looks as II
the road is to be put in thorough repair
at the expense of the State, and then
leased to some of the carpet-baggers who
have fastened upon Georgia as so many
leeches. N-.r @ slT..
| While this is going on, the State is IL
the market as a borrower. A bill hai
passed both houses of the Legislature au
thorizing the Governor to borrow money
by bond or otherwise, to pay the member
and officers of the Legislature. The PEG
| ple of the State are groaning under tn
burden of taxation, and yet money ha
to be borrowed to pay the members anc
officers Of the Legislature. But this i
not all. In message 10 the Legislature
bearing date Aug. 90, Gov. Bullock says
| ct embrace this opportunity to invit
the attention of your honorable body t
J the important fact that bonds of thi
State which were issued before the wa
, bearing six per cent interest, have faliei
due, and no provision has as yet bee
made for payment. Bonds issued an
disposed of in England before the wal
r | known as sterling bonds, fell due i
| 1868, and are as yet uuprovided fol
There is in addition to this sum two hur

On the second Tuesday in November

It is deemed of the highest Importance, IN
order to secure the complete overthrow of
the political party which has for several
wears ruled and almost ruined us, that
there should be unity of action among the
Democratic and Conservative party of the

The Executive Committee appointed by

for the purpose of preserving harmony

Georgia is getting int straight. The
Radicals are fast running that State to
financial destruction. Before the war the
Western and Atlantic Railroad used to
pay into the State treasury about $780,
900 a year, almost enough to pay the or
binary expenses of the State government.
Since the war the road has been doing
larger and more profitable business than it
did before, but it has become charge
upon the State instead of a source of
revenue. The Atlanta papers publish a
correspondence between Col. E. w. Cole,
President of the Nashville and Chattanoo-
ga Railroad, and Foster Blodgett, Super
intendent of the Western and Atlantic
Railroad, in regard to the ability of the
latter to transport the freights that may
be presented the coming season. Blod-
gett says:
"There is some forty odd miles of the
road that requires new iron; the safety of
the road demands this, and l hope to be
able to supply it soon. We also need at
least $50 additional freight cars, and at
least five more first class freight engines.
These, in addition to therepairs of bridges
and road bed, which you suggest, will
REQUIRE additional heavy OUTLAWS of money;
and in view of the heavy payments made,
and to be made, for repairs and stock
contracted for by my predecessor, and those
/ have thought necessary to make, it will
be impossible to put the road in tirst-class
condition and supply it with sufficient

RADICAL REDUCTION OF PUB
Lie DEBT. .

One of the principal arguments used by
the Radical papers and stump speakers in
favor of continuance of that party in
power, is that it has greatly reduced the
public debt. When we take into consid-
Grafton the fact that this administration
has paid the 500 bondholders in gold,
with premium of from fifteen to thirty
cents on the dollar, thus paying
them from fifteen to thirty dol
lars on every hundred more than the
Government owes them, the manner of
the reduction of the debt by Radicalism
should everlastlngly condemn the party.
But without reference to this, the de-
ception they attempt to practice shows
them unworthy of public confidence.
Senator Morton in a recent speech made
by him in indianapolis, says:
Since Grant came into power, and up
to the fifth of July, nearly one hundred
and forty millions of the public debt have
been paid off, and have just got a dis
patch showing that up to tonight the pub
lie debt will have been reduced over one
hundred and forty-si millions since Gen.
Grant came into power, while during the
last sixteen months of President johnson
being in power only eight millions OF re-
duction was made, or little over; GER
tainly less than nine millions.
To the contrary, it will be remembered
that in tie last Presidential campaign the
Radicals sought continuation of Their
power on the ground that within a little
over three years the debt had beenIeduced,
not by President Johnson, "only eight
millions" but that the Radical Congress
had paid off EIGHT HUNDRED MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS of the public debt. Radical asser,
tons now do not coincide with Radical
assertions in 1868.
