It is a remarkable la.'I that the Democrats, who have been attempting to enlighten the people on this subject, do not refer to the report of the Democratic Auditor of State, Hon. .John W. Dodd, made two months and a half before the termination of the Inst Democratic administration to ascertain what the debt was when the Republican administration commenced but instead of doiug this they refer to the report of the Republican Auditor of State, Hon. Albert Lange, made November 1, 1861, nine month9 after the Republican administration be-' pan, to find what the debt was the previous January.

It reads as follows: SUMMARY OF TflE KNTIRK IN ARRTKDNR3S OF THF.

It the debt was reduced, and the reduction took place after the 14th day ot January 1801, the reduction goes to our credit ond not to that of the Democracy, for the Republican administration commenced on that dav.

The way the last named item occurre was by the Democracy adopting the finan11 cial system of Wilkins Micawber as itn proved upon by the female Micawber wife of Wilkins aforesaid.

Wilkins, you know, to replenish the Micawber Exchequer always relied upon something "turning up," and when the starvation point was reached, his faithful Emily, who never did and never would divert him, always insisted on

something up,

his iuminy

as for instance, drawing a

bill and selling it at any sacrifice. The Democracy improved upon this device by turning up the Trust funds when ever they were short, and taking a slice and charging it to the General Fund. They seldom however, had grace enough to give a bill or an I. O. L'. for the amount appropriated, and when they did they failed to pay the interest. It is manifest from what lias already been said that, when tho Republican State Administration was inaugurated on tho 14th day of January, 1BG1, tho entire debt of tho State, foreign and domestic, was. ..

In 18"'2, the Democracy did, ar- the

'iioii#Jjau.i«juwKM» 'ftsi

claim*/.provide for ihe levy o'a

lax oi two ce.i on ucti h'Jbdred dollars in value of the taxable property of the State, at a sinking fund for the redemption of our bonds. The proceeds of tlus tax were to be need in the purchase of the bondb of the State, nnd theto bonds were to be held

the State Debt Board

of Sinking Fund Commissioners and the interest thereon was to be collected from the State and used in the purchasing of more bondu and by this process the Democratic administration had, lip

November 1,18-58, redeemed $391,810, of the State Stocks. Now what do you suppose became of the stocks so redeemed? I think I hear all say, why of course they were cancelled and that was the last of them except that they were held by the State Debt Board in their cancelled condition ho that they might collect the interest from the State on them and with this inlcre.-t take up other bonds.

such sensible disposition 1 a^ure you was made of these redeemed bonds. What then was done with them? 1 fear if 1 should tell you in my own language, you would think I was attempting to burlesque my political opponents, and I will therefore adopt the language oi' the Democratic Auditor of State, Hon. John W. Dodd, in his report of November 1. 1859, which you will lind at page 93 of the Documentary Journal of 1859—CO. "These stocks"—says Mr.Dodd,—have all "been sold to defray current expenses and to meet the semi-annual payment of interest due in New York on the 1st of July last."

This beats any thing ever achieved by the Micawber family in the financial line: Putting the redeemed bonds of the State again on the market and selling them—without authority of law—to raise funds to pay the salaries of these hopeful officials and to pay the interest an the other bonds outstanding!

Was not this turning something up with a vengeance? And yet these men

are to-day the howling champions of financial reform. No wonder that such financiers are in favor of issuing fourteen or fifteen hundred millions of non interest bearing Greenbacks and tendering them to our creditors for a like amount of interest bearing bonds. Surely, if a modern Confederate Democrat cannot lift himself up by the straps of his boots, no one else need try the exper iment.

But, the cream of the joke has not yet been related. 1 have given you to understand that, after eight years of financial labor, the Democracy, in 1858, had actualy suceeded in taking up State Stocks to the amount of §391,810.00 and that they then put these same Stocks on the market and sold them to procure funds to carry on the State Government and to pay the interest on the bonded debt of the State, but I have not told you what sum these Stocks were sold for.

I now inform you that these Stocks, amounting to $391,810—on some of which interest had run from January to April, and others from July to October,— were sold for the magnificent sum of $267,101.97!

For the proof, I refer you to the same Documentary Journal, page 75, and to the records of the Treasurer's office to show that a part were sold in April and the rest in October.

The Republicans have, after paying interest on them for some ten years,again redeemed these same stocks by paying par for them and we promise you that,

the- shall, stai/ redeemed thin time-,

unless

you entrust them to Democratic officials, in which cfrsc you had better take out a policy against accidents!

It lirst fives a table of the aggregate amount of taxation /or each ol'the years 1850, 1851, 1852, 1853, 1854, 1855,1856, 1857, 1858, and 1859, which it calls years of Democratic administration and, footing up these aggregates, produces fur the ten years named, $25,077,826 10, as the sum' total of the taxation for that period. It then gives us a table of the aggregate amount for each of the years I860, 1861,1862, 1S63, 1S64,1805, 1S66, 1867, 1868 and 1869, which it calls years of Republican administration and, footing up these last mentioned aggregates produces for the ten years from I860 to 1869 inclusive, $87,511,930 2*1! as the grand total of the taxation for the last named period and deducting the former grand total from the latter, it states as the increase of taxation under Republican rule the sum of $62,434,107 14. After stating these as the results of the comparison, the

uses this language, viz:

"Admitting the State debt to have been as claimed by Governor Morton, $10,179,267, when the Republicans came into power, in 1861, the increase of taxation alone, under Republican rule, would have paid the debt more than six times over, and yet the Republican leaders set up the claim of retrenchment, economy and honesty in the administration of the State government."

Of course this is intended to convey the idea—without in terms saying so— that the increased taxes levied for and applicable to State purposes since 1861, over and above the levy for the same purposes for the ten preceding years of Democratic rule, has been more than sufficient to pay the State debt six times over. The Republicans are charged with an increase as already

-it The War in Europe has caused an ADVANCE of from 25 to 35 per cent on Black aud Fancy Silks. Having anticipated this advance we have purchased largely of BLACK ORGS GRAIN and TAFFETA SILKS, and will, as we have always done, give our customers the advantage of the same. We will sell you to-day Black Gros Grain Silks lor less than they can be bought in New York.
