The Bonds mt Home.
from the Washington Republican.

From the Washington Republican.
30 much has been said recently about
the effect Of legislation upon our credit
abroad, such dire calamities have been
prophesied In case foreign holders should
loose coincidence in the credit of the Uni
ted states and should refuse to any long,
or noh our Government bonds for ill.,
vestment, that one may well be pardoned
for having felt some degree of soil citude
at the announcement that these United
states bonds had been pouring hack to
US from Europe In great abundance the
past few weeks.
The bonds were to fall in price so
greatly that all savings institutions, hol-
ders OF trust funds, &c, were to be incon-
tlnently destroyed. Why, since there
was TO be no diminution in the rats of
interest and no uncertainty as to the re-.
guar payment of this interest, these in
stitution and individuals In charge of
trust funds wsre to be affected by re-
d9ction in the price of the returned bond
OF the same class which they continued
70 mold as investments, does not appearl
IN TACT, IL has happened that there has
Deen no reduction in price, though there
nas oeen q large increase in the supply !
In view or their assertion of great re-
hundancy of currency at present, this
ought TO have been anticipated by those
VINO nave so bitterly opposed the So
called remonetization of silver; but, to
their Jaundicate eyes, all things porten-
ted disaster, and they forgot 1ogici poll
tlcai economy, and every principle of
sound judgment.
Why it should be an evel for q people
TO be able To purchase and hold their own
obligations. instead of having them held
Dy Foreigners and possible enemies, who
might 90 disposed,as creditors in all ages
nave been, to present them for payment
AZ the least opportune time, for the deb
Tor does not clearly appear. Why, es-
pecially, 1t should be q disadvantage to
nave our own citizens draw the interest
and expend 1t here, instead of having the
interest money sent abroad, is also diff
cult to comprehend. The bonded debt
OF the United States Is the evil legacy
lett TO the nation by the men who at
tempted to destroy the Union. 1t is no
oIesslng. 1t In q curse brought ON US by
armed traitors. 1t Is part of the price
we nave baen forced to pay for the de-
tense or our country. As 1t exists, 1t ls
the part Of wise statesma anship and true
patriotism to make the load as light as
possible, so that this heavy burden upon
our industries, this constant drain upon
our resources shall be so adjusted as to
Dear equally upon all classes of citizens.
HOW this can best be done is the one
essential problem of practical politics.
Whatever may be our theories as to
the legitimate province of the General
Government, they must be subordinated
10 this one overmastering fact of the
existence of this heavy intere st-bearinp
debt which Is to be provide for. Yet,
whiie this appears so plain, the fact is
that all legislation has been in the in
terest OF the bond-holders and against
that of those whose labors has to pay
the interest on the bonds and ultimately
the bonds themselves.
