We commend what be stye upon the subject to the earefiil attention ofthe people. Heeaye: our national debt, according to the estimate of th* Secretary of the Treasury, and of the ehslrman of tb* Finance Committee Of tho United States (fton. John Sherman.) ts about three thousand million dollar*. Of thla enormous debt, two thousand two hundred millions of dollars are now an interact bearing debt; the remaining eight hundred millions being In the form of unadjusted accounts and treasury notes. These eight hundred millions It is proposed to fund, to put Into the shape of bonds, making tberaby an intirt national debt an Interest bearing debt. Th* Secretary of the Treasury urges thl* poltor—the chairman of the Finance Committee, Senator Sherman eaye It must be done, and that now Is the time to do It. TtJiMtfMlV tb# ^ power to have the entire debt of the uoveroment represented by Interest bearing bonds. The bonds already Issued by the Government. well as thoee to be Issued in tWs precede of conversion and funding, are exempt from all State, county, township and local tax“'The intereet on th* greater amount of the bonds which have been iieued, Is pay able in coin, and that on the bonds now being issued, or that are proposed to be Issued, Is and will be payable in coin aleo, and will be used for the purpose of retiring all the outstanding bonds, the interest upon which is payable in currency. f repeat, then, my countrymen, that I am authorised In saying that it le the policy of the Republican party to convert the entire national debt Into an Intereet bearing debt, to make that Interest psyabl* in coin, and to exempt the entire amount from all State and lorn! taxation. 1 do not destre to do any man or any party injustice; add if 1 have erred in the statement of the case, or In any statement of the policy of Ibe party having In charge the policy of the Government, I will thank any one who will furnish me with the evidence of my error. Now, my countrymen, what must be the result of such a policy 1 At the lowest proposed rste of interest, you are at once charged with one hundred and eighty milllons.annually, In e<rin, topny the lotareat on this debt. You relieve by such apolley the Immense sum of 13,000.000,000 from all IDO burdens ofState, county, town-hip, end municipal taxation. In isoo the entire value of the property of tha Stutes, not participating in tho late rebellion, and not destroyed by the ravsgrs of war, was ten thousand seven hundred and sixteen millions. it was by a tax on this property that our state governments, our county city and town organizations were supported. But If the policy of the party in power be approved by the people, nearly one-iblrd of the entire taxable property of these Northern Statee ta relieved from all taxation and from all the burdens of the Government. In a word, then, you assume the payment of one hundred and eighty millions of dollars annually in coin, a* interest upon tbeso three thousand mil lone of bonds, ami you exempt thesa three thousand millions of bonds from all taxation. 1 am not In the habit, my friends, of ciuoationlng the motives of men. 1 prefer, always. If It can be done, to find motives consistent wlib honor end entire fairness between man nnd mnn, for whatever may be done or proposed ; but 1 can not account for the policy of the Bepubltuan party In the management ol our national debt, national finances, and systi in of taxation, upon any principles consistent with the best Interests or the country, and with lair dealing with the masses of the peo-

ple.

But I urn answered that the debt exlsta, snd 1 am asked If I am in favor of Its repu-

diation.

1 reply that I know that the debt exists, and that I am not In favor of repudiating It. The people of this country are not r and I trust never will be prepared for such dishonor; but 1 claim tbat suob measures should be adopted ss will relieve the people to the greatest possible extent, In the process which, under the most favorable circumstances,will bo exhausting, In providing for the principal and Interest

of this great debt.

It Is not my province to Indicate what these measure* should be, and In speaking of them,

1 speak for myself only.

without regard to the thefts, robberies and general plundering so fearlessly depicted by ray friend, Colonel Platt (a gentleman now high in favor with tha Kepahlioan party,) and which constitutes a part of the great aggregate amount, 1 ebarge tbat the debt, in form

and in terms, is unnecessarily burdensome.

In tha end, then, the •eouiity ta tha Government, nnd the note* Issued directly by the Government are fully as safe a* those leauad

We are paying, aa a nation, a higher rate of intereet than any State of the Union, and higher than tbat even authorized by most ot the States, as between their Individual citizens. Not only this, but State and Individual obligations are ail liable to taxation for State and local purposes: but, notwithstanding this exborbitaat rate of Intereet paid by the National Government, and paid In coin, the entire debt 1* exempt from the burdens imposed upon th* debts of the States and

1 sm opposed to violating the faith of th* Government, or of eastiag aay doubt upon fte contracts; but the Government has reserved tbe right at stated periods to nay off thee* bonds, or to substitute others for them. 1 would, therefore, give notice to th* holder* tbat, In scoordanoe with the terms and conditions of tbe bonds, we would pay them In tbe very kind of currency we have received from them in paymeutef th*bends,orsuMtitute for them bonds more reasonable end just In their term* and conditions, and from the date ■t which tbe Government can exercise such option, until the entire debt should be extinguished, tbe intereet on the bond* should b* reduced to a ret* been eg game reasonable

pay the interest upon th* bonds so deposited by the national bank. ^ ^ But. on tbe other hand, euppoeo the Government should alect to rorn»b thla olrculatlon, then the process of funding tho balance of the debt would eease, and a suflclant amount of the outstanding bond* of the Gevernment Would be retired to reduo* toe interest bearing debt to two thousand millions of dollar*, which would require to be raised by taxation but one hundred and twenty muIlona for Interest, Instead of one hundred and eighty millions, thus lessening the burdons of the people sixty millions annually—a sum certainly worth looking after In these tlmoe of general distress and public embarratement. But, as this national debt muat be paid, let us suppose tbat the people, In their wisdom, have determined to submit In n few years the heavy rate of taxation. Without increasing tbelr taxation one dollar, thaae sixty million* per annum, which, under the policy of the party In power, would go to th* support of tho ifavjJS'ilJC.V^Ie entlfo Interest bearing j! B uoncfed debt of the government, nnd in twenty-three years extinguish toe entire three

thnnsand million* of Indebtednece.

Upon, thla state of tbe case, my countrymen, 1 have no comments to make. It Is for you to decide whether or not the fruit* of your labor, mental and physical, shall be appropriated for the good of toe people, or for the ben-

efit of a few only.

In tbe statement I have made, I have limited tho circulation to $1,000,000,000, thereby reducing tbe Interest-bearing debt ofthe Government to $'2,000,000,000 only. I make this limit, because 1 am not prepared to say that It would be wise, at present, to Increase toe circulation beyond that amount; but, there is no doubt of tbe propriety of Increasing it as rapidly as the business nnd went* of too country may Justify, until the intereeto bearing dibt of

the Government abail have been paid.

Interest Is the eating moth, doetruettve alike to the public at to the Individual credit and prosperity. Relieve ue of that, end, without any serious embm > jaement,we can manage tbe

principal. from the National Intelligencer.

Tbe Hegner of «b* Mows*. General Logan, of llliooit, delivered a powerful speech In the House yesterday in support ofthe supplementary reconstruction bill. His scathing reply to toe slandcre of the copperhead neighbor, tbe Intelligencer, and the reason he assigned for Its persistent persecution of him—that ho had pul totheawoad more oflte friends than almost any other living man of his age—will, w* fear, provoke n fresh ebullition of Its righteous wrath. The intelligencer intimated to* other day that w* had undertaken a defence ot General Logan. This Is a mistake. He needs no defence, and 11 he did, hie speech of veaterdsy la proof posi-

tive that he can defend hla*elf, etc.

Finding the above In the Chronicle, wo had the curiosity to turn to another eolnma ot tbe same paper to see whet toe redoubtable gentleman bad to aay about toe Intelligencer. The following Is the passage obliging 1 / offered by the Chronicle In Its Congreeetonnl report: Mr. Logan knew why this node of warfare had been resorted to agalnet him since he left the ranks of toe Democratfe party. It we* because he had put more of their friende fo f Ae tvoord than almoet any other man of hit age in the army. [Applau#*.] Referring to to# remark about Horace Greeley, be said be bad no sympathy for any man who went ball for Jefferson Davis. If It had been be who captured Jefferson Davis be asserted-and Mr. Greeley might publish it-that (her* never would have been sny trouble to trying Jefferson Davis, either In e civil nr In e military court except swcA a court which he[ Logan] might organine. He himeetf would have bean the court, and there would be no Jffferion Cavit to-day He would to-day, If he had thepower, hang Jeferton Davie and every one of hit Cabinet officert. The only man in America who had nerve enough to execute traitort and usurpers wai Juaret, and he was denounced for ft. He had no sympathy with any such

feeling.

This war whoop la tb* true vain of that bloody and bitter egotism which recur* to tb* Caucasian Imagination only with the horrible concomitants of savage glory—toe clotty tomahawk, tho string of dripping senipa, too painted face nnd toe demoniac yeti, to which the Indian brave boasta of hi* thirst to “drink tho blood of hi* enemies.’’ “I put to the sword more than aay other man I” So shouted ttloco Cloeco, flinging bte bleeding trophies In the air, eeme silky with tbe tufis of Infancy, some white with tho hairs of age—as ha strode victoriously back to his Seminole swamps. So shrieked th* fiends through the burning homes of Wyoming. Such Is tbe exultation with which tho hero ot every Indian massacre proclaimed hie victory and hie pride, or supported with infinite hate tbe otherwise intolerable shame of defeat. Hot he would turn with anguish nnd loathlog, like even tho selfish Cjmu* from toe dissevered head ofPoMrxy, but like Juanxz and like Loo ax,be would have “no sympathy with any such feeling,” and would long for to* privilege of taking Ilf* with fats own hand. AVell does the Chronicle eay of Mr. Looax. “be need* no defense, snd if he dtd, hi* speech la proof positive tbat he can defend htoseelf.” If be hae been accused of Christianity, at magnanimity, of humanity, or even of otvlltxatfon, undoubtedly hi* accusers must be overwhelmed with a defense In which be ciaiesed for hlmeelf. a pre-eminence for bnrbnrtem which he denied to the moat merslless end fsrocteus beings tn soolsty; for hs deelnrsd that, with n single exception, he wse toe only assn on the continent under to* control at such sentiment# sa he uttered—tost exception th* chief of Mexican misrule, In whoa* veins It ts said (bar* flews no drop but aboriginal Mood. Th# remorseless savagery of our AmerteMi Indians bed but to soften n degree to bring to traditional favor a “Looax’s speech/’ beMde which, though tbe word* of a painted barbarian, tb# ebullition of his white Baaeseks disgusts tbe humane mind.
