FRIDAY, MAY 4. 18G8. According to the statement of tbe public dtlit on the Is, of May, we may estimate It at $2,800,000,000. This aegiegate is composed of bonds bearing different rates of interest falling due at different times, and having dif ferent provisions made for their extinguish ment or extension. Commencing to accumu late a national indebtedness at the outset of the war, and not comprehending the magni tude of the strife which was to ensue, we naturally asked for loans as our necessities required, and when at last the full force ot our position dawned upon us, tbe public credit had been so much shaken by continual de mands, that we were obliged to contract more debts at elill more injurious rates to the Gov ernment. Although such a condition would be at the best of times incoherent and confusing, yet now, when we remember that the Seven thirty loan and a number of compound in terest notes fall due next year, when it will be necessary either to provide for their pay ment, or resort to a conversion Into Five twenties what was beiore Inconverjlint become vitally important. There can be no question that next year will decide the financial fate of the nation. Either we will have a debt bear ing six per cent, interest in gold, or else some other form less oppressive to tbe nation; for, during the course of 18G7 and the early part of 1808, nearly $ 1,000,000,000 ot the debt will change its form. Mr. Secretary McCcr.i.ocn, seeing that it would then be necessary to provide for an almost total revolution in the character of our national Indebtedness, has prepaied a plan which cannot tail to recommend itself to popular favor. The large proportion which would be beneath hi control has induced him to conceive a system whereby all may be rrduced to a uniform standard. His bill is at once so simple, yet so comprehensive, that in a moment all its provisions are apparent. It , provides for tbe conversion of all kinds of ; national indebtedness into 'Consolidated Bonds," which will bear five per cent, inte rest, be payable in thirty years, and be lree from all taxation. Experience has taught us wisdom, and in this plan is found the essence of all the points which secured popularity to the loans contracted during the war. It provides for a long loan at a uniform rateol Interest. The events of our struggle prove to us that the people who have money to invest (and when we say the people, we speak ol the great masses, and not the speculating capitalists), prefer a bond which will run tor years, at a low rate ot interest, rather than a temporary investment at a greater remunera tion. This was proved by the Five-twenties and Ten-forties, which went as readily as the Seven-thirties, and had it not been for the provision of conversion in the latter, their additional interest would not have been com pensated. When, therefore, the "Consolidated Bonds" are ofiered, we prophesy that they will at once secure a popularity fully equal to the palmiest days of the first issue of the even-thirties. In this funded form, old persons incapaci tated for active business, women ignorant of finance, the guardians of children, who desire to save from danger their wards' property, will find a special investment, which must recom mend Itself both as a permanent and perfectly sate deposit for the money. When once the bouds are secured, then all that will be neces sary is to receive every six months the in terest tailing due. There need be no anxiety, no fear ot defalcation or breach of trust. The United States is their banker, and for thirty years, if they desire, they can rest safe from tbe tricks of swindlers and the dangers of fluctuations from trade. To the man of active business, who keeps his money ' continually moving, it offers an opportunity for him to lay by, from year to year, sums for his family which will be safe from all the chances of his failure or his death. For there he knows it will be sate. We predict that these "Bonds" will be as popular as the Bri tish "Consols ;" indeed that they will even ex ceed them in the eagerness with which they will be taken.- Foreigners now send their money to London to receive English Consols In exchange, and get 4 per cent. When this bill goes into effect, it will draw from Europe ber surplus capital, which desires a safe Investment at a rate which, in the Old World, is considered almost bordering on usury. Again, the freedom from all taxation se cured to these bonds recommends them as most desirable, and doeB away with any seeming inequality between the five per cent, interest of the "Consolidated ' and the higher Tates ' of real estate . or bank stock. For while the exorbitant taxes necessarily im posed' on real estate make the exorbitant interest melt before its power, jet the five per cent, of the "American Consols" is all received, no deduction, no withholding, but all paid. You know exactly how much you will get, and nothing will make it greater or cause it to be less. Even should the tax Imposed be but slight, yet people ex tremely dislike to have to break their in come and rlslt the assessor in order to make their payments. We thus find another clement ot popularity secured, and another THE DAILY evidence of Mr. McCrjLtlocijtM wisdom is exhibited. - The promise of positive payment in thirty years will prevent any depreciation of the bonds below their full value.' In England, where her wisest financiers hare all. agreed that her debt can never be paid, we flad a decline of but six per cent., but the certainty ot settlement In our case will prevent even that, and not only secure for the bonds a popularity as a permanant Investment, but will make them a convenient form of tempo rary deposit. In another editorial we will examine them in the light In whfch they influence the oa'lon. Hie Report ol the Reconstruction Com. I mifec-What Its Enemies Say of It. It may safely be assumed that the enemies of a measure, or series of measures, will attack , its most vulnerable points, tlence, we have ' watched with some Interest the reception ' accorded by the Conservative organs to the report recently presented by the Reconstruc tion Committee in Congress. We were quite sure these organs would find the weak points in that report, if it had any. They have now , "had their say." Let us see, therefore, what 1 are the counts In the indictment they pre sent i We may premise, as to the report itself, that it proposes an amndment to the Constitution providing, first, for the equal protection o every citizen of the United States against any infringement of his righ:s by the laws of the several St jtes ; secondly for the equalization of the basis of representation in Congress thirdly, for preventing Rebels from voting for members of Congress or Presidential electors until the 4th ol July. 1870 ; and, fourthly, against any payment by the United States or by any State of the Rebel debt. The report also pi esents two bills to accompany this Con stitutional amendment. The first provides that when the amendment shall have become a part of the Constitution, and shall have been ratified by any of the States lately in insur rection, such State, having modified its Con stitution and laws In conformity therewith, shall be entitled to representation in Congress, and the payment of any unpaid portion of its quota of the direct tax under the aa of 1861 shall be postponed for ten years. The second bill provides that none of ihe prominent civil and military officers of the so-called Confede rate States shall ever be eligible to any office under the Government of the United States. Such, in brief, is the report. Let us see what its enemies say of It. The New York World, to which we gene rally look for keen analysis and logical dis cussion, devotes a leader of a column and a half in length to the subject, but, strange to say, deals with the shortcomings of the Com mittee rather than with any assumed 'faults in the report. It thinks the Committee might and should have reported earlier, and charges that there is no connection between the re port as finally made and tbe prolonged investigation which was a preliminary to it. This may all be true, and yet the policy urged in the report be the very best possible one for the country. '1 he New York Daily News, which is the radical Rebel organ, of course denounces tbe report, but almost equally of course, for those very reasons which commend it to every loyal heart. The fact that the flews opposes a measure is generally proof positive that the measure is right, and ought to be adopted. The New York Uerald, which always keeps a sharp eye windward, and can detect the strong or weak points ot a proposition quite as surely as most of public observers can, 'draws it very mildly" on the report. It says: "The plan is ingeniously contrived; it is eon siilembiy mil ler than anything heretofore ema nating irom tho committee, and nearer the policy and the views of President Johnson. It may be unnecessary in some things, superfluous in others, and untair in its contiuued exclusion ot the southern Statesafter having, on their part, fulfilled the conditions of the Administration charged with discretionary powers over the whole subject; but we have only now to await the itsue beiore the two Houses.'' The New York Times; which grows more bitter as it becomes less Republican, assails tbe report with Indiscriminate denunciation. It continually stigmatizes the Joint Commit tee as the "Secret Directory," apparently for getting that its editor voted to establish said "Directory." Its main point, however, is one of those fine-drawn, metaphysical argu ments which seem to be its chief stock in trade in the discussion of the entire recon struction question. Tbe following extracts will show Its drift; " We must begin by assuming that what were States before the war are mere Territories now; or this attempt to dictate terms as the condition of recognition becomes undisguised usurpation. We must assume, in tact, that ihe South is at this moment neither more nor less than an asre pate ot Territories, wailing for admission as States, and trom whose people Congress may, tbeieiore, require compliance with certain pro posals. And yet the amendment, on its face, declares th existence, as States, of all the States recently in rebellion, and presupposes the exer cise by their several Legislatures of the highest conrtitutioiial attribute of State sovereignty. ' Could absurdity go fur ther? Could the folly of this fanaticism be made more mauiiest? From the dilemma into which the Committee have thus pluneed there is no loRical escape. If the Southern States are in a condition by their Legislatures to ratify or reject n Constitutional amendment, they mud of necessity be qualified to send Senators and Rep resentaiites to Congress, sublect only to the ludgrment of either House as to the eligibility of the pei sons sent." ,. There is a Bhow of argument in this, al though it is not true that "the amendment, on its face, declares the existence, as States, of all the States recently in rebellion." The amendment does do such thing. But what ever of inconsistency or of logical dilemma there may be involved in this plan of recon struction, the limes Is thoroughly estopped ftom setting it up. It is as deep in the mud as the radicals are in the mire. The entire plan by which the President secured the rati fication of the anti-slavery amendment to the Constitution by the Rebel States was liable to precisely the tame objections as those urged EVENING TELEGRAM. against the plan of the Joint Committee ; yet the Times supported , the President's plan throughout.'' Let It, therefore, chop logic with itself, and get ontof Its "dilemma" ai best It may. ,1 the President, had a right to dictate terms to the Rebel States as the condition of recognition, to bare the pcopU through Congress. ' If he could make the uopuon oi in tnii- iavery tmendment a condition precedent to their restoration, so can tbe people through Congress make the adoption of this amendment a condition pre cedent to their restoration. ' Unless something more damazlnir to t'ie report than anything the opposition have yet brought forth can be found, the Union party may safely go to the country on its merits Its propositions are both just and Dooular. Who shall deny that a citizan of the United Mates shall not be protected in his Just rights ? Who shall deny to the lojal people of the nation equality of lepresentatlon in Coneress ? Who shall say that the disfranchisement of Rebels for four Bhort years Is unjust? Who shall clamor if payment of the Rebel debt is prohibited? Who shall mourn if Rebel offi cers and leaders are excluded from office under the Government they sought to over throw? They who think to make a success ful Issue before the people aaainst such mea sures as these, are strangely Ignorant of the temper of the masses, and vastly undei rate both their intelligence and their loyalty. A Southern View ol "The Political CrUis." Tue conflict of opinion and testimony in re gard to the real sentiments of the Southern peotle Is so great, that in ordrrtoform a cotreci opinion it would bo necessary for the seeker after truth to put. on the Invisible cap ot Fortunatus, and, like Lk Sag k's "Devil on iwo sticks," pass over the households of the "reconstructed," and see into the secrets of their souls. In the absence ot this con venient method of reaching a conclusion, we must judge of the attitude of the late Rebel Bections by their utterances. It is, therefore, with a positive sense ot relief that we find In the May number of that orgpn ot Southern intelligence, Ve Bow's Review, an article treating with singular candor of the questions of the hour. Speaking, as the magizine does, tor tbe best classes of society below Mason and Dixon's line, ve may view its utterances asthe opinions and arguments ot the thniking community. The sentiments it advances are biought forward with commendable candor, and we desire to reply, in an equally lair and explicit manner. 1 Alter speaking of tb.3 extent of the Re bellion, and its subjugation, the writer says: : "It has become fashionable ac the North to hold the South wholly responsible lor all the consequences that have resulted from this attempt at separation. But is th'sfleht? Jsit jubt or rensounbler When we consiler that the South ncrher mad" nor attemoted to niaire any Migressioii9 on the riarhts or even the preiucitoes of the North; that she never assailed any of its pimciples or prerogatives, but acted only in deleuse of her own clearly denned constitutional rights; that she was for years the riciim of nos tile anritnvid:oii8 legislation, when we consider these thine, it must be admitted that tbe Somh was not without provocation in taking than course which many of her people thouzut, and honestly believed, to be the only course wnich cculd secure them in the peaceable enjoyment of their own rights, l'hev declared the.nselves absolved from the political compact that bound ttem to the Federal Union, and however mis taken the.v may have been in tact, ii may fairly be cla meet tor them thaf. in seeking this re medy a pencelul separai ion. which the theory ot our (Jovernraent admits to be the inalienable rujbt. ot an oppressed people they should at least be held excused, it not justided." Speaking without passion, we would say to the South that such language as is here used is not the kind, nor of the tone, to induce the United States to cast the past into oblivion and bestow power upon the late Rebels against its authority. Taking its views alone and it is one of the most moderate articles we have seen we find in it cause for keeping them still in abeyance. While con fessing that the Rebellion has physically failed who but an idiot could do otherwise yet, at the same time, no recantation of the doctrines which caused it is 'found. On the contrary, we are expressly assured that their conduct was lawful, although events have proved it inexpedient. As every actual revolu tion must be preceded by a moral one, as the crime of treason must have been instilled into the Southern heart before she uprose in power as a Rebel, so also must tbe loyal reaction come first from the mind before we can believe Its lip-service. And until the demon ot treason is exorcised trom the inner man, and the spirit of loyalty installed in its place, until that time all outward signs of repentance are but whitened sepulchres, beautiful to look upon, but filled with dead men's bones. Let tbe South be converted trom its views of the right of secession, and let treason be made odious and looked upon as a crime, and then will confidence be in spired in the Northern mind, and the North ern, people cease to be afraid to entrust with power those who so misused it when they had it. The writer gives us a picture of the suffer ing brought on the South by her own course, of the "desolation, poverty, sorrow, and waste," and says : "Admit, if you pleae, that the South was wrong; but has she not guttered a sufticient atonement? Could Christian charity, could rehned immunity, could even Justice itself de mand more of those so severely chastened and soouTged? Is it not, then, manifestly the dic tate of every feeling and principle that oiifint to control the actions of a re tinea and Christian ized people, to extend a lenient policy to those who were lately In arms against tbe Govern ment? v "We confess ourselves unable to appreciate the force oi those arguments which urged a vin dictive policy towards the Southern States. It certainly cannot be defended on the score of magnanimity nor humanity, its .justice is by no means self-evident, and it appears to me to be subversive of the dignity and true interests of the country." ; ' . To tills we would reply that both North andSoath have indeed suffered; both tole rated the sin of slavery, and both have lent their blood and tears to wipe it out. Tbe agony inflicted may Indeed b considered suffi PHILADELPHIA, ' FRIDAY, cient retribution for the pist,but la human his tory there are two influences to be conserved.?

We have the Southern States now within ovr power; we hear them demand equal pri vileges and ask Tor power which will ra'se tl cm beyond the reach of all future supervi sion, and shall we give them this means and then see If they repent and do ust.ice ? Shall we place a weapon in their hands, and wait and see if tuey use It right, if not, then struggle to recover it ? Let us rather have assurances Let us rather have pledges, bonds, and surety) so mat whether tl.ey desire or no to do right ana be loyal, they must do so. Policy and necessity combine in so demanding. We know that it would save us money and de crease our taxes If we admitted the South, and it is a Bign of our action being for the general good that wp deny ourselves to secure future safety. It la not malice, it is duty and wisdom that make us act as we do. Lntil near, the conclusion of the article the writer preserves his temper, and speaks w ith quiet reason ; but as' he approaches the end It seems that fury seizes him, and he foams at the mouth . He talks about "bigoted radicals," "sectional hatred," "blood-thirsty vindictivenesa," and the like, and lessen our oruJonof his good sense. With that, how ever we have nothing to do. It is too pre vailing atone in fouthern journalism for us to complain ot it here ; but in De Bow we had hoped better things. We join, however, with the author In wishing that the day may not be tar distant when we shall see the ffouthern Representatives o:.ce more In their accustomed seats . How soon it will arrive rests entirely with the South herself. Shall it be soon, or shall years roll by. whllu obstinate pride and latent treason shall ex elude from representation ten great Com' monwealths ? The South must decldn. Something Abont Texas. The present time is marked by unusual en thuslasm in planning and prosecuting works ot material progress throughout our younger and sparsely populated States. A vast chain of canals and railways, wanting but a few links here and there, which are being rapidly supplied, already binds the extremities of the country toge.her. The North now carries on a large and increasing commerce with the South, from Portland to Galveston, along a continuous line of steam communication, and tbe Irresistible perseverance of human will l.as crossed the Isthmus of Panama with a double band of iron rails over a causeway sown with the bonis of thousands who perished in the construction of the hishwav 0 - "tf 9 But while thpie huge labors have triumphed in the face of every obstacle, there Is one spot upon our may where, by a singular ne gleet, internal improvement has as yet made but comparatively little advance, although the patn is free ana inviting In every direction, ana great inducements are held out to encour age enterprise. We allude to Texas. It is strange, yet most true, that of all of oui later acquisitions of territory, his charm ing region of fertile plains and majestic woods, stretching along some three hundred and fifty miles of coast, indented with nume rous excellent harbors, extending inward to a remarkably level country, without impedi ment of stubborn mountain or foetid morass possessing a peculiarly agreeable and salu brious climate, a soil rich with the untouched vegetable deposits and decays of centuries, and spotted here and there with well-timbered forests of the most valuable trees. It is most Btrange.we say, that this, of all other infant States, Is least known and appreciated, and least invaded and improved by the march of the age's progress. Why is there not a per fect system of railways connecting all the available parts of Texas with our great com mercial centres, and giving a happy impetus to ' the tide of emigration towards, and suc cessful agricultural industry upon, its verdant prairies ? The advantages of Texas for railway con struction and communication are not sur passed, ii equalled It is, as we have said, a country of very even surface; its soil is of marvellous fecundity, and Its , productions, already valuable, are capable of being ren dered Immensely abundant and important. Its facilities of water traffic Internally are comparatively limited; it abounds in fine timber; its climate is remarkably healthful and genial; and, finally, the Government of the State holds out liberal encouragement to tempt the cupidity and insure the success of our railway financiers and capitalists. Let not those rolling miles of field aud forest, then, remain long fallow and neglected, save by the wild deer and the solitary hunter. There may be inde -d, there are within its recesses veins of the same spark ling ore tor which our young men have braved death In its most fearful forms amid the wilds of California ; strong arms and willing hearts are all that is required to find it, and every spadeful of soil turned np will return a muni ficent reward In plenteous harvests.
