THE MISSOURI BOND QUESTION. IN inter-
estiDg question has arisen between the Gen
eral Government and the State of Missouri,
arising out OF the recent act of the Legisla-
ture of that State repeating the provision
that the State bonds should be paid in coin,
and directing that payment should be made
in lawful money. The, Department of the
Interior holds in trust for various tribes Of
Indians seyenty-three thousand dollars Of
Missouri six per cent. twenty-year bonds,
which mature within the. next thirty days,
and for. which the State fiscal agents in New
York offer. under the laws of the State, cur
rency. The opinion of the Department of
Justice has been given to the effect that the
Unite1 States can accept only gold and sill
yer for the payment of. the bond. according
to the obligation distinctly expressed on their
face. When the, bonds actually mature, the
State of Missouri will probably decline to
Violate its own law and insist on the accept
ance of the currency. The courts will pro-
badly be appealed to for final decision of the
controversy, but the undisputed debts Of
the United States to Missouri for. swamp
lands and the war claims practically insure
the Government against loss by the repudi-
ating legislation Of Missouri.

SEVERE HA1L-SroRM. - The vicinity of
Campbell Courthouse was visited on wed
ncsday evening by most violent and de-
structive storm of rain and hail. Our IN
forlnant states that large fields of promising
tobacco have been literally cut to pieces, an d
will be entirely worthless. So great was the
quantity of hail that fell, and SO large were
the "stones," that vast quantities could be
gathered on the following morning. we

The Public Debt Statement.

According to the monthly debt statement
Just published it appears that reduction of
the debt is still going on, though not SO
rapidly as heretofore. We are no longer
iquidating it at the rate of eighty to hun
dred millions year. Still, the decrease for
the month of September Of S1,90I 900 and
fraction over is gratifying. We have always adj
vocated steady rather than rapid reduction
Of the debt as the best policy, that being less
likely to disturb business and a less strain
upon the industry of the country. The six
per cent coin interest debt is 81, go, 600 200,
and the five per cent coin interest debt
s4S8, SGT, ,300--in all, 81, 723, 567, 500 Tho in
terest due on this amounts to s31, ,56l, ,06O.
The debt bearing interest in lawful money
is-Four per cents, s67S,000, and navy pen
sion fund, at three per cent, s14, 900, 000-in
all, s14, 67S, 900; the interest due on this is
S107, ,620 The total interest bearing debt,
with interest due on it, amounts, there
fore, to s1,769, 1876, $50. The money in
the Treasury is-Coin, $50, 246, 757; currency,
SO, 2S9, 032, and special deposit for the redemp-
ton of coin certificates, s11, ,250, ,OO0-in all,
$94, 7S5, 789. The demand upon or offset to
this is $33, 935, 400 coin certificates, and the
accrued interest on the whole debt amounts
to $31, ,G8S, 6S0-in all. s65, ,624, ,080 If, then,
there be nothing behind or covered up in this
statement the Treasury has s29, ,1G1, ,699 in
money over and above oil claims upon it.
The debt, as it is called, bearing no interest
that is, the legal tender and fractional cur
rency circulating medium-amounts to
s402, ,309 1874. OF this 1856, 079, 742 is in legal
tenders and old demand notes. and SAG, 229, 391
in fractional currency. In this statement the
bonds of the Pacific Railroad companies,
guaranteed by the government, and the in
terest paid on them are not taken into
account. The debt of these companies, for
which the government is liable, is--Principal
outstanding S64, 623, ,512; added to this il the
interest paid and due to the United States.
s16,025,S74. The nation is involved in debt
for these companies, then, $50, ,G49, 3sG. and
the indebtedness is increasing every wear.
We review the figures just as they are given
by the Treasury Department. without entering
into any critical analysis of the statement or
the manner Of making it up.

spain-Carlism ON tho Decline.

It is only few weeks ago since Don Carlos,
adding victory to victory, gave fair promise
that on an early day he would be King of
Spain, King as well by the consent of the
Spanish people as by the grace of God. The
tide seemed rolling in his favor. The aspect
of things has changed Each successive day
brings us news of increasing Generalization
in the Oarlist ranks. Dorregarray, Roda and
Lissarnga have abandoned the cause and
sought refuge in France. Large numbers of
the rank and file of the Carlist army have sur
rendered to the government troops. At the
same time we hear of the complete failure of
the intransigentes. Cartagena has become q
modern Babel and we have no doubt that
when all the facts are known it will be found
that in the Spanish city, on smaller scale,
the horrors of the French Commune have
been repeated. Don Carlos must now be
counted out. The intransigentes are gone up.
The federal Republic has not a ghost Of
chance. The promise is fair for the Republic,
with q centralized government in Madrid.
Don Alfonso and his friends may yet give the
Republic trouble but meanwhile the govern
ment seems to be victorious at all points, and
the government is republican. prosperous
republic in Spain would be at once q lesson
and an example to the nations of Europe.
