President Johnson and tlte Repudiation
oi the National Debt.
That Andrew Johnson has hhown himself
capable of political treachery the country has
unfortunately had overwhelming evidence.
Tew persons, we presume, however, have sup
posed hini capable of an open and direct
assault upon the very foundations of the
jmblic credit. The debt of the United States,
contracted in putting down the Slaveholders'
Jlcbelliou, has become thoroughly Interwoven
with the business interests of the whole coun
try. It lies at the foundation of our currency.
It is the basis of our banking system. It is
the favorite investment of widows and orphans,
au 1 of the hard-earned savings of the thrifty
fanner, mechanic, and laborer. Whatever,
therefore, tends to cast distrust upon this
debt, whatever suggests the possibility of its
repudiation, whatever goes to prejudice it in
the eyes of the people, is a most grievous and
unpardonable wrong upon the public. That
the President of the United States should de
liberately set himself to doing this, is a most
strange and ominous procedure.
Our remarks are based upon the report of
"A talk with the President," published in the
New York Citizen of last Saturday, the con
versation having been held with Colonel
Charles O. llalpine, the editor of that paper.
As the gentleman iu question is a warm friend
and supporter of the President, we are obliged
to accept his aosouut as correct. Iu this con
versation Mr. Johnson began by saying that
"the main issue looming up iu the immediate
future" was the national debt, "whether it
should be paid or repudiated."
It certainly must strike every reflecting
mind as very strange that, at a time when the
repudiation of the national debt is advocated
hy no political party in the country not even
hy the defeated Rebels themselves by no pro
minent politician North or South, East or
West by no newspaper, however small or in
significant the President himself should
gravely put forth the idea that such an issue
is about to be sprung upon the country, and
should proceed to invent arguments and to
frame cunning appeals to the masses, in favor
of the issue thus broached. We may well ask
whether this is the right kind of work for the
Chief Magistrate of a great natiou to be en
gaged in?
The chief argument which Mr. Johnson
relies upon in this new "issue" which he
avers to be "looming up," is the cunning
assumption that the old slave oligarchy, or
aristocracy, of the South has been succeeded
by au "oligarchy of bonds and national secu- '
lities iu the States which suppressed the Re
bellion." The following extract brings for
ward this notion:
"On this property In slaves gradually grew
up that slave oligarchy or uristoeraev, annum
winch tile leaders ot trie aiul.slnvory party so
bitccessfully thundered during the twelve years
precediUK Hie Kebelllon; and after the first mad
piuuge iufo rebellion, the fate of that aristo
cracy was sealed. It Is now a thing of the past.
With Us virtues-lor it had virtues, couratte
and Hospitality eminently and with its crimes
of pride and lawless revolution, is has entered
into history, and is a thing of the past.
"liut what do we now riud ? The aristocracy
based on three thousand millions of property
in slaves south of Mason and Dixon's Hue ins
disappeared, but an aristocracy based on over
two thousand Ave Hundred millions of na
tional securities has arisen in the Northern
folates to assume that political control wnluh
the consolidation ol great financial with poli
tical interests formerly gave to the slave oll
gaichyof the lately Kebel Htates Thearisto
croon based on negro property disappears at the
& iv them end of the line, but only to reappear in
oi oligarchy of bond and national securities in the
S ales which suppressed the Ilcbellion.'.'
We may safely leave the common sense of
our readers to refute this odious and dema
gogical sophism, which would put upon a par
the patriotic citizen who loaned his money to
6ave the Government and the vile oli
garchy that endeavored to overthrow it.
The mo3t limited intelligence can perceive
that there is no possible parallelism in any
respect between the holders of the Govern
ment debt distributed through all the ranks
and grades of society comprising members of
all political parties, and persons of all shades
of political opinion, bound together by no
class interest except the integrity of the
national credit and that proud and hateful
aristocracy which made unprovoked war upon
the nation, and made the public debt itself a
necessity.
After thus stigmatizing the holders of the
most sacred debt ever incurred by any natiou
a debt contracted in saving the nation's life
as an "oligarchy," Mr. Johnson goes on
artfully to Inflame the minds of the people
against this class of their fellow-citizens. Tim
following paragraph is the very essence of
demagogism:
'We have all read history; and is it notcer
tain that of all aristocracies, that of mere
wealth is the most odious, rapacious, and
tyrauulcal? It goes for the last dollar the poor
and helpless have got; and with such a vast
machine as this Government under its control
that dollar will be fetched. It is an aristocracy
that can see in the people only a prey for ertortion.
It has no political or military relations with
tueiu, such as the old feudal system created
etweeu liege lord and vassal; it lias no Inti
mate social and domestic ties, and uo such
strong bond of self-interest with the people us
existed of necessity between the extinct slave
l.nWinra of our country and their slaves. To an
aristocracy existing on the annual interest of a
national debt, the people are only of value in pro
iiortton to their docility and power of patiently bleed-
.11 . I.I. ...A i,,ila ill 1ttr.fiiithitraym th,th-
Mcrew."
Let each man who owns a dollar's worth of
Government securities take the above home
to himself.
Mr. Johnson next proceeds to cunningly
inrmt an argument in favor of repudiation,
That argument Li that the debt was contracted
when gold was at a premium, so that the
Government did not receive full value for
what it borrowed. This atrocious sentiment
is not relieved any by tho mock disclaimer
with which it is put forward:
"Now, I Hm not sppHklnn of Hit to do any
thlna liut deprecate the fearful Issue which the
nindnrsn of partisan hatred nnd the blindness
of our new national debt. aristocracy to their
own true Interests Is fast, forcing upon therotin
iry. Hut is It not clear that, the people, who
Iihvp to pay one hundred nnd elirhiy millions
ol dollars a year to this consolidated moneyed oli
garchy, must Nooner or later rommiMioe asking
each other, 'J low much was actually loaned In our
(iarernmcnt during the civil war hy these bond
holders, trim now claim that ve owe them nearly
three thousand millions of dvttarsf You know
what the pnpnlnr answer must lie 1 do not nay
Ibe right answer: 'I'sh than half the amo Hit
they cialm, for gold ranged at nn average of
one hundred premium while this debt was
Lelng incurred.' "
No comments of ours can add to the indig
nation which must fill every honorable breast
at such words as these.
The nnimus of this wicked attack upon the
public credit conies out in ono of Mr. Johnson's
characteristic assaults upon Congress. lie
speaks of tho Reconstruction bill as a "high
handed measure of Congressional usurpation,"
and rings his usual changes upon tho "Con
stitution," his own "conscious rectitude," etc.
That we are to have "a great financial crash
this year," he predicts as "inevitable." If
we do not have one it will certainly not be
because Mr. Johnson has not done his best to
cause it.
Ordinary language fails to characterize the
enormity of such an attack as the President
has made upon the public credit. It bears all
the marks of careful and premeditated prepa
ration. It is specious, and full of appeals to
popular passion. It is put forth on the Presi
dent's authority, by one of his special sup
porters. It strikes a blow at the entire busi
ness interests of the country. It is a studied
argument for the repudiation of the National
debt a measure which can only be reached
through national bankruptcy and disgrace,
and the utter prostration of every branch of
private industry and enterprise. Can this
man be a friend of the Republic f
Which are the Most Helpless?
Ever since the conclusion of the war we have
been edified with Democratic; anathemas
against tho "lazy blacks" who are lying on
their backs and having the Government fee I
them. And while denunciations are thus
poured upon tho negroes, the utmost sympa
thy is expressed for the poor "whites" who
are starving because of the destitution
caused by the war, and because of the parsi
mony of the Northern people. The Commis
sioner of Freedmen, General 0. O. Howard,
in conformity with a resolution of the House,
has communicated the data of the number of
whites and negroes whom the Government
must either feed or let starve. The table
reads:
Whites.
Blacks.
Virginia,
25(H) 250U
North Oaiolln . :W09 , 20'JD
Bout h Carolina 5DO0 5'HM)
Florida W" 1(H))
Georgia 7.VJ) 50J
Alabamn MOW 501)
Tennessee 10UI) 1M)
Mississippi 182 301S
Arkansas Kl'H) 5(A)
Louisiana 300 2H)
The total foots up dependent whites, 32,GJ2;
while the blacks amount to 1P,738. Prom this
it will be seen that, despite the fact that
the four millions of blacks were totally unac
customed to self-support, yet the number who
have failed to maintain themselves is a third
less than the number of whites who have to
depend on the Government. We need no better
refutation of the slander that the negro is
proverbially lazy and will not work for him
self, than the figures given us as to the num
ber and color of those who are either unable
or unwilling to use sufficient exertion to keep
themselves from pauperism.
