R. ?, TreatTUC ELECTION.; " ; f ()i Tuesday, October 8 being one week from j r. xt Tuesday, our county election comes off. As several important officers are to be elected, and as the election is to bo held under the registry law recently passed by our Legislature, w tvould advice all voters to 600 to. it that they are properly registered. To accommodate those who have not been registered, the Board of Registration .will be opened : on Tuesday next, when the list will be completed, after which there is some difficulty in getting in a vote. . , ; :,-.., ..,' ' In reference to the tickets used at the election, the law is .strict and definite. Tho tickets must be on plain w hi to paper, with no distin-1 guishing marks or other embellishments thereon, except the names of the candidates and the ofOce for which lhvr are voted for. They may be written or printed. Persons voting a written ticket should be earful that they arc on plain white and not blue or red ruled paper, as the nspectors cannot receive 01 count them. The .law on ihis point is plain and imperative, and voters should be earful of their ticsets. Tna object of the law is to secure a fair, free and impartial election, and it is the duty of all good citizens to aid in its faithful execution. . "WAKI.VG I FI The veteran E. D. Maksfuxii of the Gazette, writing on the commerce and growth of Cincinnati, in that naner of Tucsdav last, has , . 4. t - - . tho fallowing paragraphs in allusion to our city( and the Cincinnati, Richmond and Fort Wayne Railroad, ami impresses the truth upon the citizens of the Queen City; that she "cannot grow without having this direct communication with the lumber region? of Michigan and Wisconsin." .::'' "Now it is a fact tI1.1t a great deal of traffic comes over I he Pennsylvania -road which cannot reach its destination via Cincinnati except by the Little "Miami railroad. " This business is im , mense, for the Pennsylvania rout is and will ev er remain the greatest rout from East to West. From this state of fact, what follows practically ? 1. The L. 31. and C. & X. railroads were compelled to make a route through Rich t ond Ind , and the effect is that more than half the irj.ii.lit m iliA T.ihla Miami vitrnafT 4rw West goes through Richmond ! 2. The Pennsylvania railroad , finding it could not go through Cincinnati, and that this city really refused to be i a railroad center, wast obliged to defend its own interests, and make a new road to go round Cincinnati. Hence, 'the road now making from Union to Logan sport, making (yia the Columbus & Piqua) a str.-right lind from Columbus west. It is the interest of certain railroad corporations on the west side of the c'ty, ard of certain owners on Front street, to obstruct and defeat the Little Miami Railroad in its desire to make direct connection with the Ohio & Misfiissipi Railroad. The whole amount of this interest don't amount to one hundreth part of tho interest in favor of, that connection; and yet the City Council seems to be bamboozled into gross folly by this insignificant portion of the people. '..,' Another thing Cincinnati wants; is an im rae- ' dilate and direct communication with the lumber reg'um of Michigan and Wisconsin. In fact Cincinnati cannot grow without it. This connection can be made ' in no way, so well, as by the Fort Wayne Jfc Indiana Railroad, now making, and to connect with the road through Michigan to Macinawv' This will go direct through to the great lumber region. " ' The Xew York Sun is in favor of encourageing out-door games, and 'especially the game of . lutvd Kail. Tt KHVi : . ... 'It leads the young a way from the gaming table; away from in door sports; away from carriage riding, and toward that only road to sure health hard bodily exercise. There is no other method than this by which sedentary businc3S pursuits can be safely followed. Jf tho derangements of the system which long continued in-door ltfe inflicts are not combattcd by some stirring am usement by which tho body can participate as well as the mind, then the : business men of tiie future, who are the boys ot -to day, will be but poor, puny and short lived ; representatives of the American business , world." Colonel Forney, writing from Washington, ' ti'ays : "General tirant oponl3- expresses his i 'ouition that tho reconstruction measures of i fnffraoc iiic;t. finr nprrsciArv anrl tt'tll nr- i "o w . V J ..... . vail over all opposition. On this subject he has rot now, and never had, the slightest reserve. The same is true of every military commander in tho South. , ; s , General Butler has sent to the Evening Post an explanation of his conversation with the reporter of the Boston Advertiser, touching the payment of five-twenty bonds. He says that his scheme differs from Mr. Pendleton's, inasmuch as Mr. Pendleton proposes to i?sue fresh greenbacks to pay off the bonds, while he only proposes to use for this pnrpose the greenbacks new in existence.

the special attention of our readers, to

Senator Morton's Letter 011 tho Public enau lue overnraeni, get uiu greeuDebt. 'which w nubliah hrlow. M.-mv of Uacks to pay the debts that are due, and

his Republican friends in Ohio, had been I urging hiui to address them on this vital topic ; but as his health would not permit. he has siven his views through the medium of a Letter in the Indianapolis Journal, which is brief, clear avid explicit worthy of the clear headed and ' whole-hearted Statesman a n d Senator of Indiana. Wc especially ask our Democratic friends to , read and ponder the views he has thus given, and be no longer deceived and humbugged by their Pendleton and - Vallaiulighnm leaders, 'who seek to destroy publie credit and overwhelm the countrj' iu financial embarrassment and ruin, by merely changing the form of debt from bonds to t greenbacks thus making their asser tions come true that "greenbacks would become as worthless as continental currency." . When the Public Debt Should be Paid. To the Editor of the Journal : Without intending to discuss all the questions connected with our finances, such as taxation of the bonds, retirement of the National Bank currency, etc, I beg leave to call the attention of your readers to the subject of the time of payment of the national debt. ' The total debt on the first of the jresent 'month, less the amount of cash in L'lhe , Treasury, was 2,49-2,783,305, and J ' includes 8365.16-1.841 of greenbacks or i ' '-legal tender notes, and 829,392,172 in 5 fractional currency. The total bonded debt, at the same time, including old bonds, issued before 3 861, was 81,782,- ? 361,510,48. Of this amount one hundred and ninety-eight millions four hundred and thirty-one thousand three hundred dollars ($198,431,300) draw five per cent, interest and fall due in 1904, and .arc what are commonly called 44 Ten For . ties." Two hundred and eighty-three millions six hundred and seventy six thousand one hundred dollars 8283,676,100,) drawing six per cent, interest, fall due iu lssl. Twelve hundred and five millions seven hundred and ten thousand five hundred dollars (81,205, 710,500,) draw six per cent, interest and fall due in 1882, '4, '85, and '87, and are r- what are commonly called 44 Five Twenties." The interest on all these bonds is payable jn con. .There were outstanding on the first of the present month four hundred millions seven hundred and eighty six thousand and twenty five dollars, (400,786,025), of three j'ears" 44 Seven Thirty " potes, due in June and July, 1868. The law creating the Ten Forty " bonds provides that the Government shall have the right to redeem them at any time alter ten years from the date of their issue, and, this right of redempton will accrue in 1874. Tho law creating the "five twenties" provides that the Government may redeem them at any time after five years from the date of issue, and this right of redemption will accrue in regard to those already issued in 1-SGfT, '99, '70, and '72. The right to redctm these different bonds at the expiration of five and ten years,' as above stated, is a mere privilege reserved by the Government to be exercised or not according to its con venience, and there is no moral or legal obligation to pay off one of them an hour before it is due. When these laws, were passed it was supposed it might be to the interest of the Government to pay off the debt, or some portion of it, before it was due, and the right to do so was accordingly reserved. It is now proposed by Democratic politicians that the Government shall at once pay off in greenbacks all the bonds which it has a right to redeem, and shall continue to do so from year to year, as the light to redeem shall accrue, uu:il the whdlc is paid, which would thus be done in seven years ; and the more violent are instating on the immediate discharge of the' whole debt by compelling our creditors to take an equal amount of greenbacks to be issued "for that purpose. The latter proposition would require the Immediate issue of more than two billions of greenbacks, and the' former the issue of a like sum within seven years, and either would be clearly fatal to the credit and prosperity of the country. Of the 41 five twenties," fi-e hundred and fourteen millions seven hundred and eight' thousand and fifty dollars were issued in 1862, and are not due until 1882; but the Government lias the privilege of redeeming them in 1807. ' According to tho last monthly statement of the Treasury Department, there arc now absolutely due and must be paid on presentment, arfous notes,' bonds, and certificates of indebtedness amounting to nineteen million four hundred and forty thousand three hundred and seventy-five dollars and eighty-seven cents, ($19,4 10,375,87.) There are now six per cent, bonds falling due in 1867, '08, and must then be paid, amounting to fourteen millions eight hundred and tixty niuc thousand seven hundred and ninety-one dollars and eighty cents. There are three years compound inter est notes. whicb will fall due in 1S68, and must then be p?id, seventy right

mill inn a eicrtit hundred and tbiitv-nme

thousand six hundred dollars. ; Ho that will be doe .next year, and to, re. Slccni the five hundred aud fourteen J millions of" five twenties? " . mere are tnrcc trays: First. By issuing new bonds and redeeming with the proceeds of their sale; but this would only-make a new debt of like amount, as the time has not come when a new bond bearing a lower rate of interest can be sold at par. ; Second. Bv levying a tax more than double that of the present; but this the country can not and will not bear. Or, . Third. By issuing within the nex twelve months nbt less than six hundred millions of greenbacks, and this operaation must be repeated from year to j-car until after 1874. What effect this would have upon the ' value of the currency and the business of the country need not be discussed, for none are so stupid as not to under- ' stand it. . , If this vast bodj' of currency is to be redeemed, then the debt is not paid, but has only changed its form. If it is not to be redeemed, then it will not be worth the paper upon which it is printed, and repudiation and commercial ruin will be the result. The present value of greenbacks is chiefly due to the understanding that they are to be redeemed, and a body of currency thatis'not to be redeemed, willdiein the hands of the last holder, can not be sustained by making it a legal tender or by any other legislative contrivance. Not one dollar of the bonded debt .will fall due before four-' teen years, and it will then become due at different perriods running down to 1904. Can any good reason be given for paying it off so long in advance ? The country has. not yet recovered from the war. Trade and commerce still languish throughout the land. Nine States are disorganized and desolate, and can scarce pay "anything for 3'ears to come. The rebellious South caused .the debt to be created, but whatever is paid in the next five or six year3 must came almost entirely from . the North.' Why not wait at least until the South .can pay part? Why not wait until the countiy Jias recovered from the shock and waste of war? Has not this generation jutt down the rebellion and dene its part, and may it not justly leave the payment of part of the debt to the next? This generation has to discharge'a large State, county and municipal indebtedness growing out of the war, and within the next ten years will have to . paj not less than 8400,000,000 for pensions and bounties, besides extraordinary expenses for Indian wars and other causes. In ten j-cars our population will have increased ten millions, and our taxable property -nearly doubled in value. In ten years a tax twice in amount can be borne easier than the tax of to d;vy. Within ten years the Southern States will be reconstructed aud in the enjoyment of comparative prosperity. With-, in . ten years, and perhaps within five, the increase of population, wealth and capital will enable the government to sell at par, bonds bearing a much lower rate of interest than the present, and thus consolidate and reduce the debt. . Should the Government find itself at any time in posssession of coin or cur-" rency that can be applied to the reduction of the debt, it should of course be: promptly applied; but any attempt to pay ; the bonded debt iu advance by heavy taxation, or by inflating the currency, will be unnecessary, unwise, and injurious. . , , ..I i would pay the interest promptly, according to the coutract. I would pay off our currency obligations and other debts as they mature, and see to it that the public debt should under no circumstances be increased. I would reduce the rate of taxation to the lowest point that would defray the expenses of . the .Government, economically administered, and pay. the, interest and maturing obligations, and leave the principal of the bonded debt to be-discharged in other and . better times. . Who ever before heard of a nation while still exhausted from war, and with wounds unhealed, attempting to pay off the war debt? Foreign nations may admire our ambition in this respect, but would despise our discretion. The national taxes can be reduced by the adoption of the policy I propose, and by the honest and faithful collection of the internal revenue. In fifteen years, and possibly in five,' the difference in value between gold and greenbacks will have ceased to exist, by a gradual return to specie pa3"ment, and the question of the mode of payment of the bonds, whether in gold or greenbacks, will have become Unimportant. Specie payments, can be reached without contracting the ' currency, by waiting a reasonable time, until successful reconstruction and the growth of wealth and business has brought tho country up to the "existing volume of currency without a financial convulsion. The decline of gold from 200 to 40 brought a corresponding reduction in the price of property, attended with "reat loss and derangement of business. Another luflation of the currency would be attended with another ascent and dej scent of prices, and with immense disas- ! lr to the nation. What th country

needs is repose ? and ' stability in our financial policy, and without these trade and prosperity must languish. Whei our debt was contracted, the inieni,who now clamor for its immediate payment denounced bonds and greenbacks as alike worthless, and dissuaded the people from lending theirmoneyto carry on the war; and my opinion is, they mean nrbetterto the; country now -thai' they didtUen.,Now, us ,ihcu iheir-cfv fort is to destroy the public credit. t-

The proposition to pay . the . public debt in advance is. junnccessary, .impracticable aud destrutiyc, and .would result in benefit to none, unless it would be the gold gamtlcrs,, and they would ultimately be 44 hoisted by their own Petard," as they were at the close of the War. " , '"' '". The national debt can be paid with out oppressing the country, not by' "hot 1 house" experiments, spasmodic efforts, or violation of the public faith,; but by the solid growth of the country in population, : wealth and prosperity, under the administration' of a . stable; financial policy.
