TtcentU-SiC Millions.

On July 1st, out OF the treasury of the
general government was paid to the ma
tional bankers and bondholders of the
country twenty-six millions Of dollars in
gold, as interest on government bonds.
This amount of money has been collected
off of the farmers, the business and the
workingmen IN the sAape of taxes during
the past year. Every cent of it could be
saved to pay the principal of the public
debt, if the contract made at the time
the boxes were issued was faithfully car
ried out. They are payable in green
backs-another kind Of promises to pay
that bears no interest and costs the tax
payers nothing but the expense of issu-
ing. If the Radical party that is now
ruling the country would change the
, character Of the public debt by exchang
ing greenbacks for bonds, it would save
| the public twenty-six millions of gold
interest yearly, which amount could
| eventually be used to redeem the green.

What then Think of Each Other.

The estimate Republican editors have
Of each other in this city may be inferred
from the following extracts. The first
owes his early tutorship to the late James
Montgomery, of the Wilmington Inq'n-
rer. The editor of the Republican is well
known, and has sailed under all the re-
cent flags, such as Wing, Know Nothing,
Native American, Republican, &c, &c,
and SO has his assailanr:
EVERY EVENING ON THE REPUBLICAN.
From the Every Evening of Friday.
The best way to treat such sheet is to
leave it alone, or if rot to leave it alone
to proceed against it as criminal and a
nuisance. We long ago convicted its ed
itor of forging dispatches and then try
ing to cover the forgery by deliberate
lie. He has publicly defended the acts
of a murderous bully, and permitted his
columns to be used to advocate and i'll
cite assassination, and that he should add
i'm piety and falsehood to malignity and
imbecility is not remarkable. He is far
below the range of controversy and al
mcst beneath contempt.
From the Republican of Saturday;
A LIBELLER.-The Ereru Erening is the
most notorious libeller of the age. Its
equal in this respect cannot lie found in
any country. Good citizens have been
abused without reason, and its columns
TEEN almost daily with yitnperation,
scurility and abuse. No character is too
pure for it to assail, no household too sa-
cred for it to invade, if a penny can there
by be made. Its pretencc of in1epen-
dence is only disguise to enable it to
state more etfectually the reputation OF
those who stand IN its way, and we are
surprised that more serious consequences
have not resulted. We are not the ad.
vocate of violence, and we do not counsel
any outrage whatever. On the contrary
we have always advocated peace, the pur
suance of course that the community
may see who is right or wrong, and assigr
to each the place he deserves.
We are surprised, however, that Re
publicans can continue to advertise il
its columns or in any way TO encourag,
and countenance its abuse.

Daring Robbery by Pretended TaS
Collectors.

NEW YORK, July 12.-At noon to.
day two well dressed men obtained
admission to the house of Matthias M
Douser, No. 80 West Eleventh street
by representing themselves to be GRO
ton water collectors. They had no
sooner entered wheu they seized Mrs
Douser, who was alone, bound and
gagged and handcuifed her, and then
admitted five other confederates, wher
they all proceeded to ransack the house
from top to bottom.
They obtained $4,000 Virginia
State bonds, but overlooked $1,000
New York Central securities. AfteI
the departure of the robbers Mrs. Dou
ser succeeded in attracting attention
of passer by, and she was rescued
from her painful position. No clu,

We drove for nm hour along the

mountain islands. II required hut it,.
Tie imagination to transport ourselves
to the shores uf the Atlantic, tor, eN.
tending ~ IL does ninety miles to the
north, no land could bc seen beyond
the line Of the clearly defined horizon.

hundred tons was built for freight and

but her fair prospects were ruined

Utah Central, and she now lies ut
the wharf, her only value being her aid
in making our imaginary ocean seem
more real. How this great basin of
salt water came 10 be- deposited in the
interior of the continent has been II
study for gcOgraphcrs and nuturalislS.
The water is so densely saline that it is
impossible for body to find the bot
tom. II is II capital place to acquire
the art of swimming with perfect
safety. In former times three barrels
of water left to evapUratc would pro-
duce one barrel of salt; but the frcshen-
ing within the last twenty years has so
weakened il that now four barrels of IL
are required to obtain that quantity.
IL has become fresh, therefore, gin
proportion OF somewhat more
than one per cent yearly. Hence
it follows that III less than one
hundred years the name of Great salt
Lake should be changed; for 10y this
time IL will, like MurmOnism, he
cleared of all its impurities. | have
previously noticed the regular water
lines, called benches, which are so dis
tinctly defined on all the mountain
ranges surrounding these various val
leys, and which afford such unmistak-
able evidence that in former days they
enclosed vast island seas. The deep
alkaline soil of the bottoms has led to
| the supposition that these seas were of
salt water, and that all of them except
| ing this have been completely evapor-
ated, Salt Lake being the sole survivor,
and that being destined to dwindle to
a puddle and then TO dry up for ever.
But the last part of this theory is mega
lived by the evident intention of the
lake to assume somewhat of its origi-
nal proportions; while it Is Lecoming
fresher, it is growing larger Within
the twenty-seven \ ears that the collii-
| try around il has been settled, it has
encrOached all along its low banks
nearly mile upon the land and deep
encd five feet. Several fine farms are
now permanently under water, and

removed far inward to accommodate
its aggressiveness. AT the same time
