•fhe Pnrnaewt ef tae TaWle Tent. The Journal abowa aigna of yielding to the current of public wntlment upon the public debt question. In 11s iaeue of Saturday it
says: *,
a breach of public faith. We are willing to
pay but not to eonheoate.”
And then it prooeede to eegue against the 0 hitrnotion policy of the Secretary of the Treasury and favors an Inflation of the cur* roncy which heretolore It has most positively declared must result In reducing the value of greenbacks until It would take a peek of Ihe® to buy ft breakfast. I<ef us look it ite logic a little. It says: “The eurfeney kaa been conIractod by Mr. McCutAOpM »• »ke amount of «>iei.ood.<ioo, hnriudtug the life and six per rent, treasury notes redeemed since October 1, 1 Notwlia-dandlug tbU groat diminution 11 ihc volumo ol tbo ourrenry. gold for eevrrsl months ha* been Increasing In value and on Saturday last It closed as high as 1.50, an Increase of seven cents In a week.

We cm not account for the sudden change of tae. n<v with tlio Journal unless It flnds that ft# il.nu' I..I theories can not be sustained by the 11. is which arc d.tlly contradicting them.

Here we Invo at least $200,000,000 of Inieroet bearli g di lit that can be paid by the eon-ent ot i s : ob.u r.s, w ithin one year, In cur-
ieney,”
This is very \v< il so far Its goes. But why did it not go another »up forward and recommend the MihstltuUon of greenbacks for the national bank notes, vs Irish would pay about iffob,000,dt’d or moro of the Interest bearing debt, “w ithout any rcil increaro of the currency," and lima save about twenty million dollars interest annually, which could be applied In still further contracting the interest paying debt y if Uds policy was adopted, the $200,000,(500 of Interest bearing debt, which tlio Journal proposes to retire, added to the $;ioo,ooo,ooo now represented by national bank notes would bo a llttlo over one-third ff the public debt which'the Secretary of tbo Treaniry reports to bo Interest bearI g. And this could bo accomplished with—(■nt Increasing tbo amount of paper currency now in circulation. Hut could not tho countr.y stand an Increase of the currency, without any injury to public or private Interests? Cer1.1 nly the country was as prosperous and bustne.s was as good, If not bettor, When gold Was (|U..to.l at “Vi th in when It dropped to about <>;i.half that premium. The ctrcum't mecs arc far different now from what they w. ie when gild reached the highest point. Then there was an uncertainty In regard to ibe result of tlv' war, whieh-rf course would have its influence upon tho value of tho promi- » to pay of fbe (iovernment in any shape, i hen. also, greenbacks had but a very limit><l circulation in eleven States of the l oion, but now they have no other currency an. l they need a much larger amount than Is in circulation aroong^hrm, to set in motion and give vigor to Industry and enterprlze. The doubts which existed during the war In vegan! to tho ultimate value of both greenbacks ad (iovernment bonds, which was shown by tho high premium which gold attuned, have born overcome by confidenoe In it. ability of tho Government to redeem Its indebtedness. These facts give tho assurance shat an increase of tho present volume of the currency to a sum sufficient to pay the public debt In greenbacks, as it falls due at the option of the Government, will not have the effect to deteriorate tho value of the paper beyond what It now Is, and tho Journal says, with gold at $1 '.'J it Is opposed to a .further contraction of the currency. A writer on tlnanees states that tho circulation in >h)giand is a little over twenty-flvo doll ars per .capita, And In FrAnca within a fraction of thirty-six dollars. Upon this data we may safely calculate that tbo anterprlse, itm growth, the necessities and the lack of capital in tbo United States would require a bug, c circulation than either of those countries. K-timating the population ofthe United slates at the opening ef another year at37,.‘>00,000, and the circulation at forty dollars per capita It would amount to $1,500,000, and tbo debt at $2,600,000, It would leave the Interest bearing debt at $1,000,000,000. Itean bo easily comprehended, that the interest saved by Issuing an amount of greenbacks that tho business and the necessities of the country, If It was applied as a sinking fund,'would in a few ycais wipe out the indebtedness Itself. The plan of Senator Mortoh, which the Journal Indorses, is not to pay any of the debt before issi, and then to take until 1004 for its entire rrdemotion- if this plan shonld be adopted in tio management of tho finances, an amount equal to iho debt will bo paid In Interest, before any diminution tf the principal it commencod. The leading Idea In the administration of the gov ernment should be the UgbtanIng of tbo burdens of the people. Such is not tho radical policy. If the entire public debt should be funded and the interest paid In gold, that Bern of the public expenditures alone would be about twloe as much as the entire expenses of the government under the last Democratic administration In 1800. Add tothla theotkerexpenaes. If they should be maintained at the present standard, the entire annual expenditures would amount to abeot three hundred and aeventy-flve millions, over five times as muck as they were In I860, and still leave the present enormoue debt hanging over the cauntry. The experiment of an administration of the government by the party in power should satisfy the peopie that a change In rule Is demanded, if they desire a return to an eaonomioal and sagacious management of the public affairs, as H waa when the Pemooratlc parly, the C institution and law-abiding party, gu'd it the ship ef State. And we nre sat bn d* from the great revolution going on In the public mlnd,ae the recent elections demonstrate, that such is tho growing conviction of the great maw of tM people, who have no further interest in pelW tics than In the trlnmpb of sound prtnetplol and tbo wotfaro of the country.

shows how unscrupulously he disposed of the public money. He gnvf|800,000 for that ve«-
iflailrttion. Bade the hanking eyetern With $8».0»lu greenbacks you can get United Mates bonds for that amount. Theae bonds ararllsportted hi the trrnnry, tad they not only pay Ms fvt cant. **•** ! “ them, but (key win return yoa $S7,080 In greenbacks—all but $80,000 of your money to eairy os a bank with. But the ofTMNs does not stop hero. Btrrwn says, tteat who aro In favor can gat tbo public depoalts put In
ibelr banka alto, and he knowa a
ton where some parties with a bank ot $800,000 capital, for which, by the t"*** '-*• scribed, the Govarmnent gets only the use of $30,000, have a million of dollars bn deposit constantly, and they actually fnraat these deposits in Government bonds and get etx per cent, a year on them from the GoverMMnt. 90 that by the use of $80,000 these men make, Brtt Ms per sent on $300,000—$18,000 in gold, worth about $37,000 In greenbacka-than $00,000 in gold for interest on the public deposits, equal to $90,000 In greenbacks. Thus, withoat counting nay profits on the loans of the $37,000 In greenbacks Issued to them on depositing their bonds, they make $117,000 a year without a risk or trouble, for the use by
the Government of $80,000.
, "Wae ever a Government fleeced In such a ■Manor before? There will he no resumption of epecto^payments under such n system. I can not enlarge on Stanton's magnificent scale of expenditure; an instance will suffice to show with what a Are# hand ho spends the public money.

How does that tally with the remark of Trad. Stsvkns that all tho radical Congress bad done In reference to reconstruction was outside of tbo Constitution and In disregard of that Instrument? Defease ol Negroes. A eorrospondeut of the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, writing flrom Greensboro, Georgia, relative the circuit court, says: Alexander H. Stephens was present to conduet the defense of the negroes arraigned for mnnler. I am informed that these unfortunate creatun s appealed to Mr. Stephens to befriend them, with the frank avowal that they had no money to reward hts services. Mr. Stephens entered heartily and earnestly upon thetr defense, obtaining in the case cf one a new trial. Four of these negroes were found guilty of manslaughter, and were sentenced to Imprisonment in the penitentiary, one for fifteen years, another for ten, and two for five years. The opinion ts freely expressed with regard to two oi these culprits, that bad they been white men not even Mr. Stephens’ eloquence and management could have saved them flrom a conviction of murder, and tho penalty which the code affixes to that crime.

When the last draft was erdered, several counties, Huntington among the others, appH<ul for credits they never hod received, and to which tboy were Justly entitled. No attention was at first given to thetr applications, hut when one or more counties stood upon ibelr rights and refused to furnish men unless the proper credits were awarded them, tho State authorities, fearing an exposure of their corrupt practices, applied and received from the war Department 1,681 men, which they credited to such localities as demanded justice, Huntington Included.

It Is one vnet prairie, with the exception of a magnificent grove of about one hundred acres, situated near the center and where the homestead buildings and shops are now located. “Mr. Sulllvant having been upon the farm hut about a year, of course has made but little Impression on tho place; his first object being to fence U, he decided to use the Osage orange for tho purpose; his plan embracing a line of hedge around the outside, then dividing It Into sections of 840 acres, and knowing that eventually roads would be needed, has laid out roads each wav. to be enclosed by a hedge on either side; the whole embracing over two hundred miles of hedge, about eighty miles of which have been put out the present season on land broken up last summer—the preparation being to plow four to six furrowsHUrowicg them to the center and setting on the ridge; all law places being broken wider and thrown np> to form a ridge, out of the Influence of standing water. The balance of the rows are plowed this summer preparatory to setting next spring. The plants already set are' placed fifteen inches apart, and when grown up to a suitable eixe, will batffit or “plashed,” and laid down in the
line of the row.
The plants set are generally locking very well. It forms a pretty sight from some of the higher eminences, to bee the checkered scene laid out—the d irk lines prepared for the hedge contrasting with the deep green of the prairie. From some points single rows of hedgo could be seen seven miles long as

Should Mr. Sullivant’s life and health bo spared to develop this vest track of land as proposed by him now, it will form one ofthe wonders of the world. There is little doubt but this track of land is really the finest body of equal sizo in the

In the party there was a wetbknown ex-Goy-ernor, and a former candidate for Governor and an ex-Speaker of the House. They were all practical men of the world and not easy to be taken In. Tbo candidate and Speaker were in one car, when tho ex-Governor came in with a gentleman who wore an empty sleeve, and whom he Introduced as Colonel Slgolt, of the regular army. The two seats were turned facing, and the four sat down together to chat The Colonel was a pleasing speaker and fascinating in his manners. Introduced by so worthy a personage as the c>;Gevernor, it is not to be wondered at that he met with a hearty reception. He told them who he was, that a portion of bis regiment was at Mackinac, other companies at Fort SnelUng, etc., and he was going to Snelllng to report for duty. He gave the name of a distinguished gentleman residing in Milwaukee, and said he was soon to be married to the gentleman’s daughter. He also said he had purchased the White farm in Waukesha, paying $15,000 for it that very day. The trio were very much pleased with the Colonel and bis entertaining conversation, his tales of battles and sieges, his hair-breadth escapes and his personal recollections. The Governor condoled with him for the empty sleeve, and congratulated him that he had escaped so well. Tho Speaker gave him his card and invited him to call when be visited the St. Croix country. The train drew near Madison aid the trio separated, leaving the candidate and the Colonel together. The Utter in a few words said he was in need of funds. He told again his table of investments and how they had left him in a “busted” condition and he desired only a small loan to get him through. Tlie candidate thought it a peculiar condition for a colonel in the army, and smelting a mice,left. The Governor was next taken in hand. His compassion was touched and he yielded. So did tha ex tpeaker. They came down liberally, glad to accommodate the colonel. The trio landed In Madison. “Governor,” said the candidate, “isho was your friend?” “I do not know,” said the Governor. “He introduced himself to me as Colonel Slgoli.” The candidate langhed. “Governor,” said he, “you have been sold. He is a confidence
man.”
The three felt for their watches and their
pocket books. Nothing was lost.
They asked a gentleman on the train, who knows everybody, who that stranger wae, so fascinating in his manners. Without any hesitation they were told It was the notorious Colonel St. John, the confidence man. The Governor and the speaker dropped their lips. The candidate, who had not been bitten,

From the New York Times, Republican. Mr. C*tf*ac ots impeachment. A special dispatch to the Cincinnati Com-
merciml. from Wooster, Ohio, attributes to Mr. Colfax a speech singularly unworthy ©f the speaker of one branch of Congress. It la
reported thus:
