THE CONFEDERATE DEBT.

Ellenville, n. Y, Banner OF Liberty.
When a stalwart Republican is
driven into his hole in political
argument, he tries to cover his re-
treat by bawling out "If Hancock
is elected, the Democrats will pay
the whole Confederate war debt"
This is the boshiest of all bosh.
The Constitution of the United
States prohibits it. So does the
Constitution of each and every one
of the Southern States. If this
were not the case, the debt is
about all held in Europe, was
taken "on spec.," and Southern tax
payers have no desire to burden
themselves with taxes to feed
European capitalists who took their
war securities at avaricious rates.
The Confederate debt is now a good
deal deader than the "third term"
1t is interesting to know, however,
that an attempt was once made to
revive Confederate bonds. In the
National Republican, OF Washington,
the following advertisement ap-
pShlCu uui lLS lcpJ, anu was aiSO pun
in various Southern papers:
CONFEDERATE BoSDs WANTED.

We h We an order for moderate

and urtil filled will buy all that is offered
at the best rates.
WILLIAM S. HUNTINGTON,
Cashie~."
Huntington was cashier of the
First National Bank of Washington,
Ii. ID. Cooke, president, which was a
fiscal agency of the government.
He was a notorious lobby agent in
the service of Boss Shepherd and
Jay Cooke Il Co. The adoption OF
the Fourteenth Amendment to the
Constitution by the States cut short
this intended Republican job. 1t
was the only effort made to pay
Confederate bonds.

LonpoN. April 9-Hegarding Prince Bis
marek's resignation, the Berlin correspondent
of the Times says: The Emperor William has
replied to the request of Prince Bismarck pre-
ciser as was expected, and with promptness
which preeludes the Idea of much reflection
On Tuesday afternoon the Princes petition was
presented, and all answer was returned on the
following day.
Prince Bismarck kept his own counsel up to
the last moment. and even took the pains TO
conceal his intentions from his own family
until the public should become aware Of the
event. On Saturday meeting and vote Of the
Federal Council had taken place. while on Sun.
day and Monday the Chancellor sent for and
seriously demonstrated with certain high i'm
perial officials. who had ventured to act much
too Independently In the matter.
BY Tuesday his mind WIS made up. and
drawing up his petition to the Emperor he
dispatohedl It by his trusted secretary In the
Foreign Office,
Semi-pftieial communications complain OF
