What the south Has Done.


The Louisville Courier-Journal
reveals the startling fact that since
the Inauguration of the national
government there has been spent
about one Numbered and ninety mil
lion dollars of public money on
public Improvements in the north
ern States, while the expenditures
in the south have not exceeded sew
entesn million dollars. 1t adds
that this is more surprising when
we remember that the southern
States have at all times, excepting
during the war, furnished one half
to three fourths of the exchange
with which we have paid our foreign
debts, and that, in default of south
ern productions, the supply of gold
and silver would he inadequate to
pay the annual interest charges on
the national debt, and the govern
ment of the Unitel Stated would
inevitably have disLonored its for.
eign obligations.

fact that money is scarce we pre-
pose TO furnish the CITIZEN until
