The net debt of the United States at the end
of 1881 was S1,l65 491 III. At the end of 1882
it was 81, 607, 543,611. The decrease during the
year was therefore S15I .94S .040. or an average
of 49, millions per month. This eXcels the
record Of any previous year except the fiscal
year of 1861, when all the war taxes We're
still imposed. The reduction that year was 159
millions. The next largest reduction was in
1881 when the figures We're S133 800 ,019. The
least decrease was s. 931 OBJ in 1873, the year
of the panic August 81. 1865. the debt stoo
at high water mark. 1t was then s., 15l ,S03,-
GS,. The total reduction in seventeen years
then amounts to S1.lj0, 26O,010. Other countries
of the earth are challenged to produce similar
record. The fact that the nation has been able
to pay an amount enormous in a time so
short, without materially feeling it, shows
wonderful vigor, prosperity and recuperative
power. The only complaint is that we have
been paying the debt too rapidly. which sounds
like IA paradox. 1t is but another way of say
ing that the revenues are TOO large and there
fore taxation is too high and should be reduced.
Furthermore the extinction of the interest bear
ing debt involves the reimbursement of the na-
tional banking system, and it follows that the
process should not be too rapid and violent

Gloucester Harbor.

South from the beautiful islands.
South from the headlands and highlands,
The long sea wall,
The white ships flee with the swallow;
The dav beams follow and follow,
Glitter and fall.
The brown ruddy children that fear not
Lean over the quay, and they hear not
Warnings of lips;
For the hearts go a-sailing. a-sailing
Out from the wharves and the wailing
After the ships.
Nothing to them is the golden
Curve of the sands, or the Olden
Haunt of the town:
Little they reck of the peaceful
Ginning of bell. or the easeful
Sport on the down.
The orchards are no longer cherished;
The charm Of the meadow is persisted;
Dearer. ay me.
The solitude vast, unbefriended,
The magical voice. and the splendid
Fierce will of the sea.
Beyond them by ridges and narrows.
The silver prows speed like the arrows
Sudden and fair;
Like the track of Al Borak the wondrous
Lost in the blue and the thund'rous
Depths of the air.
On to the central Atlantic,
Where passionate. hurrying, frantic
Elements meet:
To the play and the calm and commotion.
OF the trcacberous, glorious ocean,
Cruel and sweet.
In the hearts of the children forever
She fashions their growing endeavor,
The pitileSs sea;
Their >ireS in her caverns She stayeth,
The spirits that love her she slayeth,
And laughs in her glee.
Woe. woe for the old fascination,
The women make deep lamentation
In starts and in slips;
Here always is hope unavailing.
Here always the Greamers are sailing
After the ships. Boston Pilot

From the Silt Lake Tribune.
In regard TO the rumor that the
Oregon Short Line Railroad will change
its eastern terminus from Granger to
Evanston, We learn some facts which
ponit towards auch an event. Mr.. John
Sharp. Who u one Of the Directors Of
the Union Pacific, In . conversation
with . Tribune reporter yesterday,
stated that he had no knowledge In
reference to such change being pro-
jscted. There viii be . meeting OF
the Directors early In March, and Il ID
probable that this question may then
come before the bard. BE said he
visi ed the ro.d last fall and passed
over II. Az the summit Of Twin Creek
Pass . tunnel will be necessary il the
road Is operated from Granger, Al
present this summit ID passed BY
'switchsn backs" passing pver the di.
vide. bat these will not be practicable
for the business that will pass over the
road when completed. The aprroachel
to the tunnel are ready, and hav,
SHOWN tnAt tho Srouuu tnrougn Whlon
the tunnel will pass, is largely mad,
up Of quioksand, which will make tn,
cost Of constructing the tunnel, sbou
Q 200 feet In Ter 9Th, very heavy, ifno
making the enterprise almost nprsot
ioable. This may o,use the change t,
Evanston, from which place 1t woul
be easy to construct the road dowi
Bear River, q diutance OF fifty miles
to q oonneo,i,n with the constructs
line. There isa contest between tn
Oregon Short Line and the Utah an,
Wyoming over some thirty or fort
miles OF track built by the former, O.
ground claimed as belonging to tn
latter company. This matter Ia
court, and hence, the result of thi
oontestlis yet In doubt. Should tn
terminus Of the Oregon Short Line b
changed 10 Evenston, it Will add grea;
ly to the prosperity and business I
that town.
