And now I say not only that these bonds are payable In legal tender, but that they ought to bo paid as soon as it is possible to do so. I do not know that it is possible to pay these bonds as fast as they mature, even In currency; but 1 do know that every possible
iff <rt ought to be made to do It.
Uut at this point I am met with the statement that this policy will Issue an immense amount of paper, and thus so far Inflate the currency as to destroy its value, and bring disaster upon the country. Now, gentlemen, let mo examine this objection. Air.

entire:
The Indianapolis flERAI.P, In reply to the Courier touching the burdens ol taxation borne ny the national batiks, does not make a
ppurt of its former declara-
single point in slip
Hon. It per-dsteufiy ignores the Government

What would bo the i ffect of this? The
enteun hundred millions i f interest bearing
‘ ‘ed
millions; ami twenty millions of dollars
hundre
bonds would bo reduced to fourteen I millions; ami twenty millions of would be saved to tho Government from tiie interest which Is paid to the bankers for the bonds which they have deposited. [Cheers.J Now, then, suppose you tako this twenty millions of Interest which Is saved and add it to the fotty-oigbt millions of dollars which these gentlemen say Ibey can pa from the current revenue, and you hsvo ilxty-elght millions of dollars, year by year, and If you convert that sum into greenbacks, at 140, you have a hundred millions of dollars a year,and
lioenso of *100 on each 850.000 of capital^ the tax of one per cent, on circulation, tho tax of one-half (tor cent, on deposits, the tax on Individuals, and surplus fund, as well a« tho State and -county tax. It still harps u pen the single Item of *0,070 piid direct to the collector of this dlstrio , a* the mim total of tax paid by Uic four national barks of this city. This, in face of facts and iigurps, by which itseems that the batiks pay four and a half per cent, upon their oapltal. or at least three per more than the llKKAi.D oiliceor any other propmty pays, is a sample of Democratic fairness In argument. Ih harmony with this stile of reckless assertion is the declaration that but a small proportion sof tho bank stock is actually paid up. Now the Ukka1-D knows better than this. Every dollar of stock in our National Banks is pat I up in full. It could not bn otherwise. Tho basis of every National Bank is government bonds. For every dollar tu circul ilion Hie Utrb-d S'ates Trcasuiy holds *1 lOns securilv to the bill holder. How would the Herald editor go about organizing a National Hank without paying up the sto k? Tho ideals absurd. f -lle is evidently a little confused on finance, and Is thinking «f thu good old D in icratio tunes, when wild cat banks—non cumatibus, et Swampus, up stumpus, lurui-hed the circulating luudlum, and the uank President carried
tliu assets in bis hat.
We do not dispute tbo amount of taxes paid by the national banks, but as yet wo have no official (xbitdt that shows that they have been paying anything like four and a half per cent, uposstbeir capital in tbe shape of taxes. If they pay that per rentage this year w c think It will be the first time. Wo did not charge, ns tho Conner alleges, “that but a small portion of tbe bank stm k is actually paid up.” Neither do wo know that tbe stock of tho national banks, as a general thing, was actually paid up in full. When the Courier says “ it could not lie otherwise,” tt^nnly ex. hlbits Ignorance upon nalional bank financiering. To bo sure the United States Treasury holds *1 10 in government bonds for every dollar of cireuluHou Issued to the national banks, but that f ict does uot necessarily Imply that the national hankers paid up their stock in full In the organization of their banks. The Courier asks us how we would go about organizing a nalional bark without paying up tho stock? That Is no trick whatever in national hank financiering. Suppose we had the permUslou of the Treasury Department to start a bank with a eapitul, or rather circulation of live hundred thousand dollars. We could goto Messrs. Winslow, Lanikk A Co., bankers in New York, and arrange with them for tbe purchase of tiro hundred and fifty thousand dollars of Goserument bonds, they to forward them to the Comptroller of tjo Currency, and receive theixf ir currency, les* ten per cent. They get five hundred thousand dollars of circulation, or currency, for the five hundred and fifty thousaml dollars In bonds, which leaves a deficiency of fifty thousand dollar* for the bankers to make up, and that is the sum total of tbu actual capital that U required to start a halfmillion bank. We do not know whether the Lafayette national banks were started upon that margin, but wo know that national bank- with large capital were started with only ten per cent, of the capital paid In cash and tho balance with Individual notes, which tho profits of the banks have paid out. Tbo fact Is that Government deposits with the banks, without Interest, has been more than tho entire capital Invested, and In other ca-ps the Individual deposits have been equal, or more than equal, to tho capital of tbe banks, furnishing more than the entire margin required by the Government of tho bankers. We inquire of the Courier, if the Ides of organl^ftig a national bank without paying
up the stock, Is absurd?
The Courier says tho taxes of the national banks aro equal to four and a half per cent, upon their capital, ‘'or at least three per cent, more than the Herald office or any other property pays.” If such is the case, it requires no argument to demonstrate that tbe national banks must enjoy extraordinary privileges to be able to pay such enormous taxes and still make sixteen per cent, profit upon their nominal capital, aet according to tho showing of tho Lafayette National banks. The Courier, In Its attempt to defend and apologize for the national banking system, proves too much; forlt shows that tbe national bankers have a fat thing lor preTldJnijh currency for the people, which the government might just as well furnish itself, and save from fifteen to twenty millions of dollars annually by so doing. Have we not lairly answered tbe enquiry of our Lafayette cotemporary, "How would the Herald editor go about organizing a national bank without paying up thestock?” It is not a very difficult jobwhtn the modusoperandl Is explained, and this wc think even the Courier editor must admit.

Bear iu mind that I am arguing a proposition that these bonds can be paid In greenbacks without Dilating tbo currency.

Cincinnati, January 3,1868.
The literary fame of the Queen City has wonderfully depreciated since the day* of James and Hall and Galllgher, when the magazine and inlrror gave out to tho rtaiftr* of the West, many of tbe finest productions of tbe age. If we have anything like a Hterery journal published here at present, I am not aware of It. The fact la a strange one, for education ha* advanced and intelligent readers have multiplied all over the West, until one might presume that a literary issue, well and ably conducted, would meet with such patronage as would be highly remunerative. Ceitainly, the field of Western romance has not yet bacome barren, and tbe eclectic facts of a wide world of literature, were as inex« hausttble as tbe coal beds of tbe Allegbanles. Notwithstanding.;these facts, the literary genius and poetic talent of Cincinnati areappa? rently as dead and dormant as the departed swine now quartered and salted away In the pork houses of this city. Genius Is mostly poor, while talents of a literary turn are usually deficient in tact and enterprise. Therefore the one Is eclipsed and the other Is fettered in obscurity, because no party Of wealth and business ability becomes their patron. I’oor George W. Cutter’s fame Is immortal, but It la said of him that he died In tbe gutter. Alasl the man of tbe greatest genius—who feeds tbe million with Intellectual food which never grow* stale, too often dies in poverty himself and is burled, like a dog, we know not where. The golden or bonded God who reigns now, and chiefly those only who worship in hU temple, win either fame or distinction. The rich merchant, the millionaire, tbe loyal sboddy speculator and tbe speculator in political patriotism, who live ip grand stono fronts and who sport costly private carriages, become known to the town—oelebrated, distinguished and honor ble. Surely the old adage is true, ‘ that money makes the mare go.” Hence most people that are respectable wbo have any ambition would like to be rich If they knew how to “make tbe ripple.” But tbe more numerous class of our citizens are what Is styled sciBctlmes “respectable, but poor,” that Is to say, they don’t own tbe houses they live In; they are chiefly employes and try to make an honest living. But few know them; they belong to tbe masses; they own no Government bonds, and yet they pax taxes on all they eat or wear—on all they drink or sleep In, or on. They live entombed lu a living sepulchre call id a city, where but few of them will ever become known in history, song or story. “But
s.iub is life.”
One exception should betaade In the literary ambition of this city. Tho Commercial, of yesterday, tells of a gifted a-plrant who at-
tained to some considerable distinction as a | ^' oa, , s . writer, furnishing articles for that and other qtcektngs
Issues of tho city, which ho no doubt thought were prune. A short time since he brought to that office a well written and appropriate article, which fell into the hands of an occasional contributor, wbo, In looking It over, seemed to have a dijp reuiemhranco that he
had seen it before, and that it had already meut of thc
been published in tho coluinna of that paper
and slxty-four shpis of war.” Tho Register was Issued one year ago. The Senator must have gone to “sleep,” instead of Senator
gone
Grimes. He should have known,, for it was stated in the report of the Secretary of tho Navy at the commencement cf this session, that tbe number of vessels had been reduced
forty during tbe war.
How hasit been with the War Department
in regard to vessels? Senator Chandler says: “If we had bad Stanton in the Navy Depart-
ment, as well as in tbe War Department, 1 believe that millions and tens of millions would
have been saved within tbe last two years that have been squandered upon tbe navy.’ While, however, tho S cretary of the Navy has, during the last two years, made no purchases, aud disposed of two-tbtrds of tho vessels In the naval service, what aro the f tots iu regard to Stonton? The report of the Secretary of War for December, 1867, page 532, shows that Mr. Stanton duting thu fiscal year continued to maintain quite a formidable fleet. Wc quote tho
words:
“ During tho fiscal year ending June 30, 1867, (Stanton being Secretary of War,) the number of vessels chartered, impressed end otherwise employed iu the service of tho Quartermaster’s Department on tho oooans and lakes wa* three hundred and fifty-two,
(3.V3 )”
More than double the number of vessels have been employed by tbe War Department
than have been employed by the Navy Mo-
idencos ofecoh-
partment. Where are the eviden
emy which unscrupulous partisans claim for Stanton! Where, under the broad heavens, was the need of any! We repeat, the time will come when we shall have tbe trutb of these matters. Tbe waste and recklessness of tbe War Department will not always be false-
ly charged to the Navy.
Again, the report of the Secretary of War, as submitted to Congress, December, 1867, (House Ex. Doc., No. 1,) shows on page 528, that f ir the last fiscal year, during all of which time Mr. Stanton wasin tho War Office, there were purchased 11,103 horses ar.d 4,9:15 mules. Mark, these Were purchased during the year —how many of those left over from the war are still on hand dors not appear, so that the total of tbegraml army of hoiaes aud mules is
uot stated.
The profligate efforts of worthless partisans to give undue credit to Air. Stanton have deceived and misled thousands. There have been arbitrary violence, an abuse of power, a reckless, Improvident and wasteful expenditure of money by tbe War Department, not only daring the war, but sluce, which an honest and faithful Congresg could bare Investigated. Any man could be a “Carnol” if clothed with despotic power, given the treasury to squander without stint and without accountability, and be lauded for his wickedness by fulsome or subservient congressmen. The attention of the people has never been called to the terrible extravagance and mlsgovernment which has been practiced, and
still exists, In the military service.
General Grant has curtailed some of the expenses and abuses of tbo War Department, but we hear that he has been guilty of as many more. Enormous abuses yet abound on all hands. A slight glance and' only a few a very few Items—the remnants of shoddy contracts, profusedly given o«t—which rematned on hand last June, two wbole years after tho war had closed, and after the armies had been dismissed, will abow wbat reliance there Is In the statements ot Senator Chandler ns to the economy and saving qualities of
Stanton, “tbe Coronet of the War."

And they said: “Depart thou to Hades,” and they went their way. When they were come to their houses, they recognized them, albeit they seemed old and mean, and they rejoiced and were glad. They ran to tbe doors and knocked, aud strangers opened and looked Inquiringly upon them. And they said, with groat excitement, while their hearts beat high and the color In their faces came and went. “ Where is my lather? Where is my molber? Where are Dyontsius and Seraplon, and Pericles and Dt-cius?” And the strangers that opened said, “We know not these.” The seven said, “How, you know them not ?

“ The seven young men turned them away from thdr homes, and strangers shut the doors upon them. The strangers marveled greatly, and looked Into the faces of all they met, as if they hoped to meet some one whom they knew; but all were strangers and passed them by and spake no friendly word. They

These suggestions are so plain and straightforward, that a lair minded person, looking solely to tbe Interests of the people and the general welfare, can not misapprehend them. The plan comprchen Is tiie redcmplinn of the public debt within a period that the interest upon which, if thu principal Is not diminished, will amount to a sum equal to the whole debt. In other words, If the present debt Is conaoll. dated tn a long loan, say forty years, a* t* proposed, tbe amount paid for Interest about every sixteen years will be equal to the entire debt, without diminishing tbe principal n farthing. Is this sound financiering? The? Journal, also,enquires, “ Whatequalltiy there I* in paying the bonds fn an appreciated ourrency.” We do not know that there Is any. It there is any preposition to pay the debt In an appreciafed eurency. It comes from papers like tho Journal, that propose to resume specie payments and thus appreciate the present value of tbe bonds about a thouNfind millions of dollars, while depreciating the value af ail other kind of property in a corresponding degree.

The miserable policy adopted by the radicals is calculated only to cripple Southern enterprise, and keep the people, both white and black, in a state of semi-starvation. Tbe great crime of their policy ts Infamous, an l a just providence will surely mete out to them their proper reward. Even along 1'earl street tho dullness of tbe times is visible, and most of the bouses feel most sensibly the oppressive fortune* and cruel legislation of radical power. Every house along that street Is capable of doing the business of a million a year, while now tbe tenth and fifth of that sum is as much as many are doing. The cry is a scarcity of money as well a* lack of trade. The curse of the bond tux Is on them, and their business is paralized for want of greenbacks to carry it on.

Tho efforts made by tho Republican press of the State, to create the Impression that thu Democratic party was divided into two wings and would not co-operate together, have signally failed to accomplish their vile purpose*. While among a few there may have been some differences and some preferences, the unity and purpose aimed at by one and all of the Ohio Democracy, can not be safely Interfered with by any one who respects himselfor his standing with the party. There Is nothing to fight about, and there Is no motive to divide. Whoever gets tho nomination of the party, will get the vote uf the party with a large addition from tho radical party, if men who are sick and tired of the misrule and negro policy of a Congre«s whose glaring incapacity 1* as palpable as the light of day.

No. 25 Maiden Jane. ) New York, Dec. 14, ioE7.) In ray Card of Nov. 1,1887,1 stated that, ,< ror the purpose of more fully aispply1ns Gie wants of tho public, and lit order to prevent unscrupulous dealers from palming off Inferior and worthless goods ns the fflorton Gold Pens. I shall herealtor sell no goods at wholesale except only to duly appointed and authorized Agents,’* ete. To thi. plan I have since strictly adhered. In accepting Agents, great care has been exercised to appoint those who, by longcontinued flair dealing, have acquired a reputation for honesty, responsibility, and probity—men In whose word the public have learned to place confidence. These Agents have agreed to keep a full assortment of my pens, and to sell them at my published prices. Thus the public are supplied by them with just such pens as they want, either as to writing or pries, and get a full equivalent for the money paid. No agent is appointed to travel from place to place, or canvass the country, so that all who want a Morton Gold Fen. must get it from the Looal Agent or from headquarters. None need apply for the Agency exeept in conformity to the above, the liberal discount “ To Clubs ” being sufficient inducement to all others. A- MOETON. nova rt AwSm
