THE CONVENTION.

The first day of the convention augurs
well for the future conduct of its delibora-
tions. All the evil representations Of the
enemies of the party have been unlulflled
Wisdom sooms to have superseded folly
ana discord has given place to unity. No
doubt the elements of disturbance and un-
patriotic rivalry are still present, and it is
possible that they may break forth again !;
but the calming effect of official position is
well known. The blatant demagogue of
the stump frequently disappoints the
mob which elects him by conserva-
tism of act and thought entirely new to his
character while candidate. The eXcita-
BILE and belligerent lawyer almost at once
acquires the tone of mind suitable to his
station when he is elected to the bench.
As soon as the official position is assumed,
the sense of responsibility pre- sses upon the
man and gives new tone to his mind and
acts.
SO we trust it has been and will be with
the men who now are celebrating upon
the fate of the republican party and we
might almost say upon that of the nation.
The delegates in their seats, we are sure,
are different men from the disclaimers Of
the hotel Hobbies and the caucus.
We feel confident that the coming days
of the great representative body will justify
the hopes of the millions of patriotic hearts
which are now waiting with anxiety for its
decision.

THE payments on the public debt during
the month of May have been remarkably
large, amounting, in round numbers, to &c.
600, 900, or, precisely, S15,92s, O33s1 The
United States will, at the close of the fiscal
year on June 80, show q surplus Of revenue
of one hundred millions of dollars which
will have been applied to the decrease of
the national debt. This is q greater sum
than has been similarly applied to the debt
ofEngland during the last forty years The
national debt of that country stood in 1917
at its maximum, cslO,OOO,OOO In 1877 it
Est, 100000, and in 1877 it was a715,-
100000, Since that time it has Guctuated
slightly, but in consequence of the late
petty wars and preparations for great ones
it Eas had a hard time to keep even. The
debt of France has steadily increased 1t
is now about twenty per cent, greater than
that Of England and more than double as
Iarg. as that Of the United States.
The defenders Of monarchy and aristo-
cratic government have always maintained
that democracy tended toward irresponsi-
bility, and that where it controlled there
could be an irresistible inclination to evade
Just debts. While there have been elements
in American politics justirying such prog
nosti cations, they have not been powerful
enough to control, and Mr. GLADsToNE's
position taken in favor of democratic gov
ernments in his skin beyond the sea" has
been fortified by the lapse Of time and the
facts now at our disposal.
The determination Of the United States
to pay its debts while it is young and pros.
porous is a wise one and it will do much
to aid the democratic tendencies of modern
thought in Europe If we pursue our pres.
ent plan our debt will disappear in the
next thirty years, and the next generation
will have to meet only the burdens which
It creates while the policy Of borrowing
and never paying will drag nearly every
European government to bankruptcy and
disintegration. The collapse of the green.
back party shows that the American people
are sound upon this question. We are
willing to bear taxation and are determined
to be honest,
