. in i \u*m • <— 11 - Tlie Nallonai l»ebt and lie paymentDuring the war ouo Jay Cookb, representing the government, Dsued a pamphlet or circular, In which he attempted to demonstrate that “a national debt was a national blessing.” This may be a good Idea la theory, but practically the nation has not boon ablo to see it. The Interest bearing debt of the United States, ecuordlng to the estimates of the Secretary of the Treasury, approximates ta,WX),OOO.ooo. The Interest upon that sum, payable stud annually, ts ahout fl(W,000,000-about twice as much as were the entire expenditures of the government In 1800, To the interest upon this debt Is to bo added tho current expends of tho general government, which will amount to about 11000,000,000 more, m"*dng tho entire annual expenses of the government In the neighborhood of ♦‘150,000,000. To this Is to bo also added the Htuto, county and local expsnsca which will amount to not less than 1300,000,000 annually, making In all tho enormous sum of ♦050,000,000. These llguros will give some Idea of tho exhaustive drain upon the industry of tho country for the support of the Government In Us Various ramiflcations. A largo portion of tho revenues of the Government goes to pay tho Interest on the public debt, and all who have been In debt can well appreciate tho fact that interest operates ns a consuming moth upon individual happiness and pro-pority. And tho experience of a nation Is but tho aggregate of Individual experience. The man in debt, If he desires peace of mind and prosperity, strives to get rid of the Incubus which weighs so heavily upon him. interest never ceases. It respects not Sundays. To It all days aro alike. It has no sympathy, conscience or churl I’’’ Its accumulating progress ncv..- nni 1 mirrht'H on w-st- as of sunshine or rain, good crops or bud, adversity or prosperity. It oats without furnishing allmont—lt consumes without producing nourishment. How then can a national debt bo a national blessing, any more than IndivUluaj debt an Individual blessing? Tho enormous taxation to which tho people aro subjected, direct and Indirect, Is forcing their attention to the causes which produce It,and tho necessity op a remedy for tho evil. Tho Interest upon the public debt is not Its only burden. Its ox eruption from llio taxation which Is levied upon other property or capital, adds largely and unjustly lo tho burdens imposed upon the productive Industry ol tho country, which Is the stay or support of the Government. But whero the rumody ? All will admit that If our present Immense public debt would bo cancelled, wiped out, that It would furnish great financial relief. Various prelects have been suggested to remedy tho evil, for it has boon found to be no blousing. Wo have before us a p iniphlot upon tho subject entitled, ” how to pay tho national debt, and In tho mcnutlmo to sustain and advance tho commerce and business of the country, so as to prevent financial n vulston or repudiation.” The author, whoso name docs not appear, discusses the question Intelligently and earnestly, and makes some suggestions which aro well worthy of consideration. Without reft rrlng to his preliminary observations In regard to the character of the public debt and Ibo circumstances under whb h it was created, we give bis plan for liquidating or cancelling it. Ho says: The following plan therefore is most respcctrully Mibmltted to u uaudid, considerate and Interested public, witli tho remark that what is here announced consUlutes only the outlines and Iciullpg features of a system that will speedily bring deliverance to the property, labor and l mitt -try of the country, tend to restore the Constitution and revive trade, agriculture and mauulacturlng now dead in ten States, uifil sustain and increase the business of ail—a reconstruction more elfieiunt Hint that of 1’rcsident Johnson—mbre simple rind direct than that of Congress, and more Ju-tand practical than either. For it Is the financial domination and taxation Of the Gunoral Government, necessitated or excused by the exigencies of war and Us consequences that have subordinated and enslaved tho Himes and the people, anil centralized all sxwwer In Congress, regardless of tho ConstiTiition or the rights of the Mlates. As already slated, the bonded debt of the United States is ♦3,500,000,000. Too interest bn this sum is nearly fl5o,000,000 annually. Now let Congress authorize mo issues In legal temlnr eurfonoy to the bond holders ♦250,000,(MX) annually, besides an amount sufficient to pay the interest, lor the term of ten years, in this way In the Uriel period of one decade this mountain load, hearing so heavily upon tht nation's energies and Industrial interests, will have melted away and disappeared forever; or If any portion of It remain at tho end of the period named, It will to that extent form a healthy medium, quickening business and labor, and stimulating enterprizu and public and private ImproveBienta throughout the length and breadth of the Republic. This currency w ill of course enjoy the same credit and command the same confidence as the bonds, which It will gradually displace, it will make this vast deot, now only felt by Its oppression, active and available means oi money, furnishing the people with an equable, uniform and universal currency, rtlmulutlng Industry Instead of depressing It, mututiUiilng tho old, and opening new channels of trodt and commerce, rebuilding the Mouth, now desolate and destitute of lifo and energy for the want of means, to produce and restore her great staples, and by the close of tho period mmed, more than doubling the available wealth of a nation that will theo number more than llfiy millions of souls! HOW THK (1HRKNHACK8 TO HE KJCOKEMKI) OB
I’AYET>.
In the miianwhllo each annual Issue will be rspily absorbed for taxes and canceled, and that just as the business of the nation D revived or stimulated. Gold certificates, too, with which lo pay import duties will absorb each year from ♦250 (X)0,000 to ♦300,000,000 more—a market for them which will also he Increased In proportion to the stimulation of enterprise and activity In the industrial pursuits which would follow an expansion ot currency supported by the credit of the republic. Thus these stated Issue ot legal tender currency will swell the volume of circulation without at all Increasing the liability of the government whilst their perpetual absorption in taxes and gold certificates under our revenue and tariff systems will prevent redundancy and depreciation. Nor Is this all. This whole circulation In the hande of Its owners becomes tax,all6 property Halle to ihare the burden* of local ami yeneral government!; and to this extent the mad we are carrying Isshdteu from the shoulders of labor to those of capital and the non-producing
classes.
On.flfCTlONS ANMWKRKD. The only plausible objection to this plan of National deliverance and relief is, that though it may hot be repudiation. It would be bad faith to this Class Of pu Id tc orert ft ora Whafhar this would b« so or not, H can not bn denied that the Government hoe already set the example In reference toother classes of creditors, both public and private, and no good reason can be assigned for excepting these bond holders, who, as already Shown, are not more worthy than others. When the war broke out, htales, counties, cities and othor corporations as well sb Individuals, were owing debts both at borne and BbroadAO M dttgans snd «i foreigners. 'These debts were ail, principal and tote reel, payable in gold - some by express pfovUloh, others by Implication cf faw. But In violation of the letter ami of the spirit ol the contract, was worth out) fifty cents in the dollar, and which Is not yet, nor has It •Y«r been, at par. Yet ii a creditor then demanded tho benefit of bis contract or covenant for gold, he was denounced ss a copperhead and traitor, dieposed to throw obstacles in the wap or Me government. Nay, a motion was made to Gongrssh to make ft a felony or penitentiary offense for any one to refuse greenbacks In aatlsfeettod of thstr demands doe is coin. Wee thfir TWpftdutlon or payment? Can It what they may. UN only what Is here proposed to save a nation from perpetual bondage end bankruptcy. And shall the favor of ♦ few stand in the way of deliverance cf all, wtren the latter have precedent snd justice to advocate their cause! As already Intimated, It Is wopeeerl brpety thole bonds, not to repudiate them.

The plan we have given above meets some of the objections which have been urged ogalnit the conversion the interest paying debt into legal trader otes, Xi dues justice to lha.publl« creditors by not depriving them oMbetr rights, yet maintaining plighted public faith. And while doing this, tt doci not depress the commerce or business of the country, but on the other h:uitl t advances and sustains private prooperlty and progress, and hence the public. At all events the suggeetloBs are worthy of eonsldi rntion by all who have the true Interests a id welfare of tho country and the people at heart, and to that class they aro addressed.
A HepubllcKn Protest-
Tim following proposition* and proteat are put forth by a prominent member of the Republican party in this State—a Republican who loves bis country better than party: Suppose that during tho rebellion es' fl of thu Union, in its turn, had bcp- overru “"y the eonfvderatBarma and cowP e U*« t0 to tho confederate g 0V e~®™‘; that under the protection of that comment «n ordinance of secession bad »'** adopted In each State, a confederal 11 '‘f? Acting ovcr Itg capital, and a ennff rate Legislature assembled within It; mat this state of things had continued long enough to prevent tho election of a Union State government for at least one term, and that afterwards and finally tho cause of tho Union and tho Constitution had triumphed, and tho rebellion boon suppressed, as is now tho case, what would have been the legal and
constitutional result of those facts?
It is fur from impossible that these events could have occurred. If She result of Gettysburg had been reversed, they probably would have occurred. The Now York riot was only a slight cropping out of a spirit existing throughout the entire North. What, I repeat, would havo been the legal and constitutional result of these facts? Would It have been that all tho States had committed suicide, that there wero no lawful State governments, ami there f to no lawful States, and therefore no Union? Would the triumph of tho Union arms have given force and vitality only to ortllnances of secession, and have reduced tho Constitution and the Union to a nullity ? EUbcc
:. h ! S nW o U ^ ^ ve ^«.rerth.V
l-epublican party in Its hour of soresttrlal, by Its representatives In Congress, pledged its faith and Its honor solemnly before high Hi aven should bo tho result ol the war—to maintain the supremacy of the Constitution, and to preserve the Union toff A aH the dignity, quality and rights of the several mates un-
impaired.
That was a pledge more binding than an oath; a pledge on tho faith of which thousands of millions of dollars, and a hundred thousand huu^u lives wore ofTored up a sacrifice to restore the Union " with all the dignity, equality ami rights'unimpaired’’-those States which tho American Congress has just voted with delllierato and cold blooded perfidy to put under the heel of an absolute military
despotism.
It is Idle for tho less insane portion of tho radicals to slink away from the doctrine of State suicide; either that doctrine Is well founded, and there Is no such State of the American Union existing as the State of Virginia, or else the action of Congress has not so much foundation as a grain of sand to stand upon. Absurd, preposterous and contemptible as tho doctrine is to all intelligent and refleeting minds, yet the TnuMnutts, the Fessjcnmcns, and the Mortons must stand squarely on It without wincing,or confess themselves guilty of a usurpation—of M assault upon the Constitution of their country, not surpassed In magnitude and audacity by secession Itself.

From ths New York World. Protection no PrincipleA long lime ago, I was In Boston to buy domestic goods, among them cotton Osnaburgs. On Inquiring the price, woe asked If wanted for export or homo trade. I Inquired why such n question. Tho sslesman (one of the house) said If for export the price would be half cent per yard less than for home trade. I replied I thought it strange the consumer here should bo required to pay more than the consinner in Brazil, Mexico, China, or any other foreign country. II* remarked, he must keep up the price at home, and that was the way they did In England. I told him I did not care how they did business In England, but his requiring mo to pay more for goods to be consumed here by roan called upon to vote (or members of Congress (who were often bribed) to sustain the interests of New England manufacturers by protecting them In their Interest, I thought hard; and if he was lu favor of protection, I thought If wo put on a tariff on foreign goods to put money In their pockets, we certainly should have the manufactured article as low as the foreignlt not lower. But ho could not see it, and I had to agree to keep an account of all I sold for export, and then be would allow roe a deduction of half a cout per yard on such as were exported, an Oi.i> Merchant.

Tragedy—Tit e murder-

Our readers heve already been apprieed by trlegrapk tf a ehooklng murder recently comml tied near Weatherfleld, Vermont. A Bello** Fall* dispatch to the Boston Post gives
tho following details:
,9*> Morfday night iMt, or rather about three o’clock Tuesday morning, as the evidence indicates, a Frenchman by the name of Wllilsm*. wtiotiad been employed as sf irm hand by Mr. Gdl Cowing up to the first of June last, and who, on making a settlement with Mr. Gowlng, had somo dispute In regard to wages, threatening at the time to ‘’get even,” called at the residence of Mr. Gowlng, and after arousing the household and giving his name os that of a neighbor, (Mr. Hitchcock,) Inquired Mr. Gowlng, laying that the cattle In his corn field, and bo bad better get up

m door, and on opening It was
felled to the ilvor by a level in the hands of bis muraersr. This done, Williams went to a particular corner of the bouse where Mr. Gowlng was In the habit of keeping hie worklog tools, and got an ax, with which he returned. adU with one blow split open the bead of nls victim, driving the ax some dis-
tance Into the floor.
The confusion Incident to tho murder hod arousedMr. Uowlng’* wife, who was sleeping In the adjacent room. Hearing her screams, the murderer entered her apartment, and with the ax yet dripping with the blood of bis first victim, struck the defsnoelese woman in the neck, nearly severing her head from her body. This done, be espied an innocent little child apparently asleep In a trundle bed. The fiend carefully shoved the trundle under the bed where the dead mother wee lying, and then procefded to make his search for treasure. He first split open a bureau In the bedroom, the blows of bis murderoul ax having blood stains and clotted hair wherever It fell. Finding ue treasure here he proceeded to reoeaek other localities of the house, prosecuting hts search for nearly half an hour after the last murder. During all this time the little child, a gtrijaf some thirteen years, instead of screamloir as sbo bourd the dvlog aironles of her faCbsr auu mo ia«* r--^l if hi* mother, feigned to be asleep? and ^Cft6 r tES •beet drawn closely around her bead she was unmolested by the heartless murderer of her

Besmeared with tbo blood of his two victims. Williams now left the house, hts search for money being unsuccessful, notwithstanding There was between five and six hundred dollars concealed (n the bed where the murdered woman was lying. After leaving the scene of bis double murder, he quietly proceeded to the house of a neighbor only half amtle distant, and engaged to work through haying. After remaining in the hay field for some two or three hours, he asserted tbit he woe ouite unwell, and aulUlflg the field, started for Windsor, evidently with the Intention of mkktng bis escape by ve«. ttr the rood to Windsor he woe ovfcfulA by a gentleman in noarrisge, who

Lately, it has, however, conwtttety changed Us tone, as wo have already shown, on a previous occMlon, by translating a very severe article on the corruption of tho dominant party in this country, In which the radicals were thoroughly exposed tor their selfishness and utter absence of all statesmanship. Tho last files of the Oasette contain another series of letters, whose predictions in regard to our public debt are calculated to alarm every bondholder who reads them. The writer takes therein the broad ground that the next war we shall have will bs a financial one, and that we ere rapidly progressing In tbo direction of repudiation, lie says that if the present Congress continues Us reckless system of Jegislollon, its eulctdal protective tariffs, Its class preferences, and general domagoglsm, in ten years bonce a large party will insist on repudiating the national
debt.
Gloomy as the writer’s views are of our financial and Industrial prospects, his opinion of our political situation Is equally discouraging to those who look to the New World as tho land of promise. He Is especially severe on tbo contlsoatlon schemes of Mtovens and Butler, which are denounced and ridiculed without stint. Biuler’s theory that the democratization of the Mouth, and Its thorough assimilation with the North, are only possible by a division of tho large estates into small farm*, and tho change of toe black laborers into small independent farmer*, he declares utopian, because it leaves out of consideration a highly important element—their Independence. The negroes are not tied down to tho soil, usd cud, as lluir pay Is sufficiently high to sevo money, easily acquire property, as tboU*unds have already Uoue. Go the other band, we may grant the negroes land, but all psychological ence te»cho» us ♦ hM thjft, a «j'’j ) f industrious, iJ?*® lortnel-s. Property, which Is not me fruit of Individual toll, will prove rather a curse than a blessing to any race not naturally stable and persevering. If anywhere, it Is In America, where the chances to acquire property are open to all, that the capacity of acquisition constitutes the only source of true wealth, not the given or Inherited possession. The development of this capacity in too former slave would be rather retarded than promoted by agrarian laws Strikingly true as all these observations unfortunately happen to be, we must yet differ from tht« unusually well informed correspondent, when he Insinuates that the new and extreme demands ol Stevens, Butler, Phillips, etc., are not aproved of by the msjorlty of the radicals. Herein he Is betrayed Into the very common error of giving that party credit for some grains of honesty and good faith, enough at least to make them adhere to the ultimatum of March 2, which solemnly pledged the North to Impose no new punishment on the Sooth. It Is no such conscientious scruples wnlch diter tho dominant majority from openly supporting the agrrHunlsin of the principle leaders. Tbo true reason Is that they do not yet think It quite politic. When the time comes there will be no faltering or falling behind on the part of the radical rank and tile.—Detroit

Our Wlree jand Daughters-
How many husbands treat their wives with constant and tender care for tnelr happiness? How many who do not make it unpleasant for their wives to ask for money? How many who do notebrug their shoulders when a trip to the sea shore and mountain is mentioned? How many who do not return from their business at night, cross and disagreeable? How many husbands who spring to their feet whenever there Is an opportunity to save a step lor the wife? How many who seek dally and hourly to add to the happiness of the one whose happiness they have declared to be so essential to their own? How many who do not begrudge the expense of servant*, who think to take home the little appliances mat can make a housewife’s work light, who plan for recreations and. amusements, who praise the taste and care which make for them so attractive a home? How many husbands could pass the test of interrogatories like
these?
The fact is six men out of ten treat their Wives most shamefully. Instead of that tenderness for her which marked the first burst of their interest, they aro apt to be sour, petulent, and Imperious. They make little else than slaves of their wive*. They compel them to Mil; for money; they feel that they must frown down ovary plan for pleasure, and least of all, ever think to speak In praise of that which the wife baadene for their happiness. Tne lives of most husband* are one long train of grumbling and fault finding. They are blind to the happiness of the one whose life Is to them a never falling ]oy and Inspiration. In many places they uro more courteous and pleasant to the wives of their neighbors than
to their own.
There never was a man who did too much for the happiness of a woman, aud never did a man devot* his thought and care to the tastes of a true woman who did not reap a rich harvest 111 return. It Is because wives are slighted and neglected that homes are made so unpleasant. Women lose all heart and drag out sad and unpleasant lives. Men who promised all sorts ot good things, turu upon their reiterated vows, and crush the hope and heart of a life that might be to them
a never falling source of joy.
Husbands, try our plan for a little while
and seo bow It results. Go home and pack up your trunks.and take your wives and daughters to the springs, to the mountains, to the shore. What If you have to neglect your business a little—you can not afford to neglect your wife. You pledged most sacredly not to, and she looks to you for the fulfilljnent of your vows. Do not wait to be entreated; suggest the thing yourself and so will the answering love be greater. And while you are making amends for neglect of your wife, follow up your good Impulse by making a pleasant plan for your daughters. Mo shall you have a happy family and a happy home—and so will you bo more happy yourfrir.-jreto Tori- ftazelte.

Accordingly, with this monstrous Intent, they forcibly conveyed their unfortunate victim to the tmoke house near by, end commenced a series of tortures that even the veriest savagd would have shrunk from and grown hideous at—such was the enormity of their barbarity and wickedness. They first attempted to strangle their victim to death, but falling, the fiends in human sbepe bethought themaelvee of a more refined as welt as expeditious mode of accomplhblog their object.

BITTERS.
Ad Interesting Question.
^^"IIAT^class ot^people will be most snsceptiU. Evidently those affected with any disease of the atemueh, liver, or any of the organs appertaining — u-gcation. This class of persons nndouuuxn^ will be more liable to contract this disease than those possessed of strong and healthy digestive rgons. The question then naturally arises, how shall we restore and keep these organs in a healthy gnd normal condition? We answer, by attention to diet, avoiding all undue excitement, using moderate exercise, avoiding all intoxicating drinks, no matter in what form presented, and by the use, according to directions, of that great strengthening tonic, GERMAN BITTERS, Prepared by DR. €. M. JACKSON,
P 3EH L-A. HZ Thto Bitters ia a compound of fluid extracts.Tbc roots and herbs from which it is mode arc gathered in Germany, and their virtues, in the form of extracts, extracted by one of the most scientific chemists and pharmaceutists this country affords. It is .TOT A lAQUOK PKEFARATIO A in Buy sense of the word; contains no whisky, rum, or any other intoxicating ingredients, and can be freely used in families without any fcar.or risk of those using it contracting the disease or vice of intemperance. We wish this fact distinctly understood, as many are apt to confound this Bitters with the many others efore the public prepared from liquor of some kind. During the Oliolera Sea .son Of 1818 this Bitters was extensively used throughout the entire country AS A PREVENTIVE, And we have not heard of a single instance which this Bitters was nsed, where the perso suffered from any of the symptoms of Cholera. THE GREAT STRENGTHEN ING TONIC, BOOFLAMS’ GERMAN BITTERS.
