Pretty Heavily In Debt.

: Some person has recently gone to
 the t-ouble of estimating how much money we owe. Of course, in several
 of the items there can be nothing but approximations The debt we are con- stantly talking about, and which is up permost in evcrybody's thoughts, is
 the national debt. The amount of that
 obligation is easily ascertained- It
 amounts at this time 10 S2,200,000000.
 But thIs vast sum of money is only a small part of our obligations. The
 State governments owe III addition S375. .O0O, 900, while the municipal debts
 foot up $l.OO0,OOO,OO0. We have here
 grand total of S3,515, 100000, which is not far from the amount of the Brit ish de0t, national and municipal. But this is not half what we owe. The railroads are indebted to the tune of S2. 300. .OOO.OO0-a sum in excess of the
 national debt. The discounts and loans of the banks are estimated at Sl,O0O,
 00C,000 and of the insurance companies S500,0O0,000 This makes grand to- tai of $7.315, 100000 of national, State, municipal, corporate and private debt, or about twenty-five per cent of all he property of the country according Ito the census of 1870. Mortgaged for a fourth of what we are worth atler century of independent existence, is d condition which suggests economy for the future in a very forclble manner. No doubt much of this mountain of debt results from the needs of a new country, but there ls more Of it than ought 10 have been contracted.-S. F. Bulletin.

Extract from Yuma letter to the
 San Francesca Post:
 The foregoing IS a very pleasant view to take of the matter for San
 Francisco. IL is an erroneous one, cal
 culaled to work injury to San Francis co, unless her business men open their eyes to the immediate danger confront
 ing them. It is probably not known 1 by a large portion of California that Jay Gould, Garrison, Tom Scott and other capitalists have purchased a con- trolling interest in the Denver and Rio Grande Railway. This road is a three-foot narrow guage, and has so far built itself out of its own earnings. It is now only 150 miles from Albu- querque, Fort Garland being its pres ent terminus, at the headwaters of the Rio Grande. It is of easy construction from there to Fl Paso, where it inter .sects the Texas Pacific. The freight interests are about as follows: Dis tance from Albuquerque to Prescott, 460 miles. The nearest point on the road from Tucson will be Mesilla, about 300 miles. The distance from New York to Albuquerque, from New York via short lines-Atchison Tope- ka and Santa Fe-to Pueblo, thence by Denver and Rio Grande, is only 2,300 miles. Present prices of freight from New York to Fort Garland are just one half those charged from New York to San Francisco via Central Pa cific. Rates of f'eigbt by freight trains from above mentioned points on rall- road 10 Prescott and Tucson are one half cent per pound per hundred miles, making a rate of about two and a half cents per pound from Tucson and Pres colt, the present centers of trade for Arizona, so that even now New York shippers are enabled to lay down freight by fast freight lines from New York to Prescott and Tucson in less time than freight can now be shipped from San Francisco to the same points, and at less cost. Some of the same capitalists own the Utah Southern Railroad, which will be rapidly push ed in its construction towards Prescott, Phoenix, etc. It is now completed to Lehi, about 100 miles south of Salt Lake and 400 miles from Prescott, and is being rapidly pushed forward 10 St, George, near the Arizona line, which is less than 200 miles from Prescott, and only 2,S00 miles from New York and 5j0 miles from San Diego, which point is supposed 10 be Its destination. It is safe 10 predict that in two years New York and San Diego will be united by rail, with $100,000,000 Of capital to build it up. It is useless to say that San Diego cannot be made a large commercial port because San Francisco has all the money. San Francisco, as a financial center, bears about the same relation to New York that New York does to London. San Francisco needs to be up and alive, not sleeping. or she will have lost all the Arizona, Mexican and China trade.
