From the Boston AdyurtiaaE.l
An interesting statement Of the debts Of
the countries Of the world has been pre-.
pared by the London Economist, and,
having been copied and commented upon
by the Pail Mall Gazette, has made the
rounds Of the English papers as it APP
peared in the latter paper, 1t is to be
hoped, however, that the figures regard
ing other countries arc more correct than
those which purport togive the facts con-
corning the debt Of the United States, but
this We can hardly expect, since more fro
quent and more detailed statements are
published OF our debt than any other.
Yet We are credited with q debt Of g433,
100000 in 1873, and OF ei40, 100000 in
1875, showing an increase OF $1,000, 900.
The fact is that the figures have been re-
versed. January !, 1873, the National
debt OF the United States was s., To-, 252,
900, which Is almost exactly R440,0 100000,
On tho first Of January, 1875, it was 81,
Ia, sos, 900, which IL as near a. may be to
G4SS,O6OO0O. The blunder ia perhaps a
natural one, but II is strange that It
should have been carried through all the
comments the Pail Mall Gazette makes
without being discovered. The Gazette
has even the assurance to remark that
"the apparent increase in tho indebted
ness Of the United States and the appaF-
Ont decrease in tho indebtadneR8 Of the
Russiau Empire are due to our having
followed on this occasion different aud,
We believe, moro accurate authority than
In 1873" II this Is slur upon Mr.,
Richardson 1t is very ingenious, but in
that case the Gazette discredits Mr.. Bris.
tow as we'll, and hints at private infOrma-
ton more accurate than that contained
in OUR official statements. However,
leaving tho question Of accuracy out Of
the question, We present the table Of debts
and interest In 1875, leaving out the re-
