How a Republic Pays its Debts.

The indemnity extracted from France
by Germany was 100000, 900 francs, of
which 500,000,0OO were TO be paid by
the 10th of June, 1871, l,000,0O0,00O
during that year, and SOC, 100000 on the
LIST of May, 1872. The rest was payable
on the 2d OF May, 1874. 1t would APP.
pear, from the message of NJ. Theirs,
that France was paying the debt faster
than it metured. Within these three
months S00,000,000 francs have been
paid, and in December POO, 100000 francs
more will be handed over. The world
responded favorably and promptly to
the appeal of France, and half OF the
loan has been realized. There is de.
ticit of l32,000,000 francs for the past
year; but the equilibrium will be re.
stored in 1873, and there will be a sur.
plus in 1874.

A Gigantic Corporation.

The FUGncier prints a tabular state.
ment of miles OF road controlled by
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
either by lease or by ownership of a ma
tjority of the stock. The list embraces
sixty-three railroads, including those
now being constructed. These are all
made tributary to the main line from
Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, and their ter.
mini are distributed in nearly every
State in the Union. Including the
Union, Central, and Texas Pacifics, the
total extent of lines will be nearly l5,.
coo miles and the grand aggregate of
capital invested in them will be at least
S670,000,000. Besides these, are $50
miles of canals and line of four steam
ships now building TO run between Phil
adelphia and Liverpool. The total
capital invested in these means of trans
portation, controlled by one organiza.
ton, will scarcely fall short of $780,
100000. 1t will thus be seen that nearly
one.third of the railroads of the United
States are under the control of few
individuals in one corporation. In view
of the vast political power which could
be welded by a combination of the
major portion of the railroad interest OF
the United States, this is significant
fact. In commercial point of view it
is also worthy of note that all the trans
continental roads will be controlled in
Philadelphia.
