Reduction Of the National Debt

The Cincinnati Commercial says: A
somewhat curious and interesting calcula-
tion as TO the rate at which we have decreas-
ed our National debt by the appreciation of
the greenback has recently been made.
1t shows that in 1864, when onr debt pay
able in coin was 50, 400, 900, and the
greenback dollar was worth 49, cents in coin.
it would have required Sc. $50, 0OO, 900 to have
paid the debt in currency that on the LIST
of September, 1878, our coin debt amounted
in round numbers to $4,000. 100000, while
the coin value of the greenback dollar was
99R cents, and that it would have required at
that date in currency $2,Ol5, 100000 to have
paid the debt. The difference between So
25O, 600, 900 and 1000 600, 900, viz: $780,
100000, repl esents the reduction OF the pub
lie debt effected by the policy enforced by
the Republican party.
The appreciation of the greenback has re-
duced the public debt as certainly and logi-
cally as reduction has been accomplished BY
the actual purchase and cancellation OF
bonds.
While we are at it, there are further inter-
esting facts which, while they are familiar,
will yet bear repetition. In 1865 the Ma
tional debt amounted, in precise figures, to
So ,75S, 000.0 it is low 50. ops 00O, 900; re-
duction, 1872. 100000. In 1865 the interest
on the National debt amounted, at and
). 10 per cent, to $13S, 900, 600 per annum
We now pay interest at the rate OF 4 and 6
4 on -na
annum; decrease of 1913. 800, 900 per annum.
In 1865 the debt was 81. 80 per capita it
is now only 81 81 per capita.
The decrease of the debt in paper may be
tabulated as follows:
In IA 81. $50, GOO 900
In year.-............. 100000. 600
In month. 25,900,000
