Tftic Peace 1'auty. It is well
known that the rclicls refuse to tnnko any
pence that will not secure their indepen
dence and separation from the Northern and
"Western States. With a full knowledge of
these facts, the Peace party amongst us are
willing to accept their propositions and end
the wur upon such terms. And what would
le tho result of such a cowardly and vil
lainous peace ? Why, the North would
have to pay the whole expense of the war.
Our farmers, mechanics and others must be
taxed to pay the enormous expenses which
have been caused by tho South alone. Ou
the other hand, if the Southern rebels arc
subdued, as they will be, the greater portion
of tho debt can, and should be paid by them
A moderate tax or lour or hve cents per
pound on all cotton exported, would aloue
pay the interest on tho debt. The greatest
nufferers would be the English, who deserve
nothing better for their support of the rebels
in their piracies, and running the blockade.
But this iew will not bitit the "Peace
party" and hence such papers as the Xor
thumierland County Democrat and other
papers of that character cry out eacit, peace,
when tlfy know thcro can bo no peace
except on the terms proposed by tho rebels.
Out of a tender regard ior the rebels, they
would uiako our farmers, mechanics and
business men pay the expenses of the whole
war. "Will our people countenance such
infamous propositions to accommodato a
few designing politicians whose object is
office ? "We think not.
Tho affairs between the United
States and England arc beginning to assume
a Bcrious aspect and if something is not
done soon by Euglaud to prevent the fitting
out of piratical vessels in their ports, war
will be the inevitable result.
E2f The news from Charleston, though
not so favorable as we should like, is, never
theless, anything but encouraging to the
rebels. The result lias shown that our Moni
tors are sufficiently invulnerable that they can
pass Fort Sumter, and if the obstructions iu
tho harbor are removed, they can 6hcll the
city unless they surrender.
tW Uow to Ixvest Money. We call
the attention of Jhose who have money to
invest, to an article in our columns on the
subject of Government loans. The interest
on these loans is paid ia gold every six
months and no security can well be better
than that of tho government.

WAHi!.aTO!, April 7.
Frrm other thnn official source, it is as
certained that the vessels composing tbe
& et advanced upon Charleston, on the 7th
in the following order: The Weehawken,
Captain Jno. Rodger ; tho Passaic, Captain
Drayton ; tho Montauk, Captain Worden ;
the Pataiisco, Captain Amnion ; the Iron
sides, tbo fW-sbip, Commander Turner,
with Admiral Dupont and his Mall' on board.
Next followed tho Cats-kill, Captain George
ltodgers; Nantucket, Captain Fairfax j Na
hant, Captain Downs; Keokuk, Captain
Khind. In this order they proceeded up
the main channel, arriving within sevinteeu
hundred yards of the main forts. Thu Iron
sides became unmanageable, owing to tho
tide and the narrowness of the chanuH, and
she was therefore obliged to drop anchor to
prevtnt drifting athore. Owing to these
circumstances she signalled lur consorts to
disregard her motions.
ri'KTUCB ACCOVXTC FROM CUAUI.EbTOX.
Baltimohe, April 12.
Too Keokuk, drawing leas water than any
ft the others, was sent in first to find tho
channel and re-place the buoys. Proceeding
up tho main channel tho Keokuk found an
easy and unobstructed entrance, with full
eighteen feet of water in the shallowest
plaice, more than has ever been, before found
on Charleston bar. The buoys were replaced
without difficulty, the Koliels ottering no
opposition. The Keokuk returned to the
fktt, end on the morning of the 7th the
order h giren to the iron-clad to enter
the harbor. The order n to proceed in
slnglo file or aline alicnd. The Weehawken
was the lending vessel, having in front of
her a scow, end then between sdicr end trie
scow Erirsscm's torpedo-exploder, or Deril,
m it lin been called.
Tho Ironsides, with Admiral Ditptwt on
board, was the fifth in the line, and the
Keokuk last. In this order the bar was
pased io safety, without detention.
The orders "given to the commanders of
tho various vcsse! were to keep straight on
up tho harbor until they came within 1000
yards of the forts, and then to attack, di
recting their efforts principally against Fort
Sumter.
In this order the fleet moved on steadily
and gallantly up towards Forts Sumter and
Moultrie, the Rebels withholding their tiro
until thov trot well tin into tho harbor.
J he Ironsides stopped oil rort iMotutrie,
and let go her anchor, it being dangerous to
take her further up on account of her draw
ing over 13 feet of water.
At this moment tnere seemed to tie a
temporary misunderstanding, and all the
Iron-Claa, except me cciibwkcii aim
Keokuk. (lathered about the Ironsides, ap
parently supwwing that she had grounded
and needed assistance.
Thev were, however, soon signalled to go
into action. The Keokuk had kept on until
she led the line nnd had advanced to within
four hundred yards of Sumter, against whose
granite walls she hurled her heavy shot with
all the rapidity that tho energy oi ner urave
crew could furnish.
The Rebels, as wns cxrcctrd, immediately
conccatrated their fire on tho Keokuk, wlibh
assumed to lead the attack, from Sumter,
Jloultrii!. Batteries Beauresnrd and Cum-
uiings' Point, and from a fort erected on the
nnudle ground, the lire ot four hundred or
five hundred guns were concentrated iu a
terrible hail upon the devoted vessel.
Such a flro had, perhaps, never in the
history of the world been equalled. It was
met by the. officers of the Keokuk with
heroic fortitude, whilst the balls were strik
ing her at the rato of one for every second.
Her guns were worked with vigor and pre
cision, and their weight and force were
already making their mark upon the walls
of Sumter.
It soon, however, became apparent thnt
the Keokuk had none of the impregnability
of Ericsson's "Monitors," and that, in fact,
as an iron-clad she was a failure. The rebel
balls seemed to penetrate her as easily as
those of a wooden vessel. Tho port-holes
or shutters of her ports became jammed, and
her guns practically unserviceable.
During tho thirty minutes she remained
under this concentrated fire, one hundred
shot struck her, ninety of which wero water
line shots or such as would cause her to leak
in a seaway. Iu fact, she was perfectly rid
dled. Her flng was shot into tatters and
the whole of her side was battered, bruised
and pierced. Perceiving the severe injuries
she hud received, the Admiral signalled her
to retire out of action mid anchor beyond
the range. This was safely nrcomplUhcd.
In tho meantime the Monitors Nahant
and Catskill had moved up to the support
of the Keokuk, and engaged Fort Sumter.
The Ironsides and other vessels at longer
range were dividing their attention between
Moultrie and Sumter. Into and on the latter
fort a heavy tire was thus poured, and, it is
believed, not without effect.
The engagement was kept up from 1 till
4 o'clock, when, in obedience to Admiral
Dupout's signal, the fleet retired slowly,
receiving and returning the Rebel fire until
they anchored out of range, within the bar.
Tho Weehaw ken wns assigned the impor
tant duty, which was faithfully performed,
in the midst ot tne tight, to examine, and, il
possible, to flic the obstructions which the
Rebels have extended across tho harbor from
Fort Sumter to Moultrie.
Preceded by the scow and tho Devil in
front of her she pushed up straight towards
tho obstructions. They were found to con
sist of a net-work of chains nnd cables
stretched across the harbor, over which it
was impossible for the Weehawken to run
without fouling her propcllor, and which
she found impossible to loree.
To this net-work tho Rebels are supposed
to have suspended torpedoes and other
submarine explosives. Having completed
the examination, and tested the impossibili
ty of working up the harbor until means are
devised for the removal of these obstructions
the Weehawken returned and reported to
Admiral Dupont, who then ordered the
discontinuance of the conflict.
It is believed that tho damage done to
Fort Sumter by our fire was serious. So far
as it showed externally it consisted of two
embrasures being knocked into one, and
numerous identations in tho wall which it is
believed a few hours more would have con
verted into a bcrious breach.
What damage nnd loss of life was sustain
ed in the interior of the fort is not, of cor.rse,
known, but it is believed to have been con
siderable. Fort Moultrie was also well
hammered, and at least one gun was dis
mounted. Beyond tho sinking of the Keo
kuk, the damage to t,hc iron-clads was very
slight, not uioro than would require tweuty
four hours to repair.
They all came out of tho contest in fight
ing trim, and able to have continued the
conflict had it been advisable. The Iron
sides was hit frequently, but except having
one port shutter injured, was unharmed.
Our informant heard of no serious casualties
on board of any vessel except the Keokuk.
This vessel sunk the next morning, about
1000 yards from thu Mortis Island beach.
She had thirteen wounded, two of whom,
including Actinar Ensign Mcintosh, will
probably die. Tho Devil was not l03t as
stated by the Rebel despatches.
When the Weehawken returned from the
reconnoisanee of the obstructions, the srow
she had in tow broke loose and grounded
on Morris Island. The Rebels thinking it a
dangerous affair, peppered away at it, think
ing it was the Devil, or something worse;
but our informant assured us that the Devil
was safe, and will yet be made use of nuainst
the Rebels. b
The affair might be summed up thus:
We have entvrud Charleston harbor, made a
successful reconnoisanee, engaged the Rebel
forts for three hours, damaged Fort Sumter
seriously, lost one vessel and have had a
convincing proof of the invulnerability of
the Monitor fleet.
The above is made up from an interesting
account furnished to the Baltimore American
by on eye-witness who was in the fight.

Correspondence of Ihe ii. V. Herald.
Off CUAItLESTOX IUnBOK, )
April b, 1803.
From the northeast angle of the fort, across
th channel to Fort Moltrie, were suspended
ooatine from barrel and k
BstTTuctsj and cvintriraoca of nTfuy, to '
flxc(j n, ha sure to pet cntttnglod In Uto
propelling apparatus of vessels and also con
nected with torpedoes. Into this net tho
Weehawken, which led the van, fell, and for
ft long time her machinery was useless, ami
sho drifted with the currant. At last, after
great bxertions, ihe extricated Iiorself. The
other vessels sheered ofT nnd avoided tho
same peril. Thero wss no getting Into he
required position in this way. Any attempt
to persevere in that course would have
renclercd the fleet nnmnnngcnblc and exposed
it to destruction. Hufllcd in the attempt to
act round or past Fort Sumter in that way.
Tho bull-dog Monitors sought another open
ing ; but even the shoal ground between the
fort and dimming' Point was bared up
with piles. In fact, Fort Sumter was found
to be the nppex of a triangle, the two sides
of which were impenetrable to our vessels,
and nt the base line of w hich they were ex
posed to a concentric fire from Forts Sumter
and Moultrie, the Redan, Battery Bee, and
Fort Beatiregnrd. Thus brought to a stand,
and nothing being left but cither to batter
down Fort Sumter or to retire, the iron-clads
went rseolutoly to their work. Stretching
themselves in a line between Sumter and
Moultrie, and only giving an occasional shot
to tho latter work, they piled their guns
upon the walla of Sumter.
The Keokuk steamed up to within some
three hundred yards of the fortress, while,
the other vessels lay at intermediate dis
tance, between that and six hundred yards.
The Ironsides the Admiral's ting-ship had
become entirely unmanageable, refusing to
answer her helm : so that, with the excep
tion of one broadside which she poured into
Fort Moultrie, she took no part in the attack
although she ws hersolf the target formally
of the enemy's largest guns, and was hit some
6ixly or seventy times, sustaining, however,
no material damage. For half an hour,
while our vessels were in the position I have
described, the cannonading w ns of tho most
awfully irrnnd and terrible character. No
words of mine, no words of any man, can
convey a faint idea of it. I was sublimely
terrific. Iso less tlmn three hundred guns
of the largest calibre concentrated their fire
upi-n the eight assailants, who hnd not six
teen guns with which to respond. The con
test was too unequal to be persevered io.
The Keokuk was soon badly damaged. The
turret of the Passaic wns so indented as to
prevent its revolving. The Patapsco had
her two hundred pound Purrott gun dis
abled : nnd, besides, niht was coining on.
Tho Admiral therefore signalized the fleet to
retire, and sullenly Ihey fell back from a
contest in which they were so tremendously
overmatched, not. however, without leaving
their mark behind. The northeast front of
Fort Sumter, which was the only one ex
posed to our fire, was badly damaged. No
less than eleven holes, some of them three
feet wide, and two embrasures knocked into
one, showed the effect of the Monitor's guns.
But that was all we effected that and the
dissipation of n popular error that Charles
ton could be captured by nine or ten iron'
dads. Tho signal to cease tiring v an given
about five o'clock. It was abeyed and the
vessels fell biu k to the flag-ship, the purling
shot being fired by tho Nantucket as she
passed Fort Wagner.
And thus ended the most rcmnrublo con
flict that has ever taken place between war
vessels and land fortifications remarkable
in this that the guns of the forts outnum
bered by ten to one those of the vessels.
Aud yet, after all, to what is our failure to
be attributed i To tho impregnability of
the laud batteries or the weight and num
ber of their guns ? Only to a slight degree
The real instruments of our defeat were' the
apparently insignificant and contemptible
barricades of ropcwoi k and netting suspen
ded across the channel, and which kept our
vessels nt a point on which the rebel guns
had previously been concentrated. Forts
Might have been linsstd and batteries si
lenced; but these twining enemies, which, i
like the serpent of I.aoeooii, coiled them- I
selves around the motive machinery of our j
vessels and prevented the play of tiieir iron I
arms, were not to be got rid of by force. In !
In their grasp our vessels w ere innocuous. j
And therefore the unfavorable result of the
enterprise is not to be accepted ns a t est of '
the relative' powers of iron-cluds and laud
batteries. Without these obstructions, all
the forts that defended Charleston from Light
House Point to Cattle Pincknev. would have
been insutlicient to stop our Monitors from
anchoring oil' the Battery at Charleston.
It ha.l been calculated thai some ii.oOO
rounds were, lired by the rebels. In one
minute there were one hundred and sixty
counted. On our sidi: there were but one
hundred and fifty shots fired in all ; so that
the rebels fired over twenty shots to our one.
The Ironsides fired but one broadside, ami
that was at Fort Moultrie. That was her
only oll'cnive operation throughout the day

HIE KCM'LT.
Tlic result of the day's operations may be
summed up thus: The injury to the rebel
fortifications is not such as will work any
great los3 to them, as we cannot renew the
attack immediately. On our side we lo.-.c
the Keokuk, which sunk this morning, nnd
which is to be blown up to-day, to prevent

TWO DAYS AFTEIt THE FIGHT.
Correspondence of the Baltimore Amorican.J
Stcamsuii EiucfsoN, Off ChaIilestox, )
April l, 1803. J
I closed my hist letter yesterday, immedi
ately after hearing of the determination of
Admiral Dupont to disappoint the nation
by retiring from beforu Charleston, acknowl
edging his inability to perforin the duty
delegated to him. At a later hour in the
evening, I visited the iron-clads on the
steam-tug Dandelion, and a more broken
hearted set of men I never had tho misfor
tune to encounter. Each man appeared to
regard himself ns personally disgraced by
the act of his superiors, and uboard the
Ironsides tho state of feeling among the
younger ollicers aud crew was that of su
preme disgust.
I visited several ot the Mouitors during
the morning, when all experted to renew
tho conflict at one o'clock, and all were iu
high glee at the prospect, and full of confi
dence that the cracked walls of Sumter must
yield under a repetition of the pounding it
received on Tuesday. Confidence w as every
where felt. The gallaot Fairfax, of the
Nantucket, asserted that ho had put twenty
seven of his iinmcuse projectiles against and
through the walls of Sumter: and was confi
dent that if all would do at well in the at
tack they wer then momentarily txpceilpg
to commence, Bumtcr ronst yield, or become
ft pile of rubbish.
From the dock of the Weehawken the
north-east wall of tho fort was very distinctly
visible with ft glass, the distance being a
fraction less than two miles. I examined it
very closely, snd the boles in it could not
hvo been Ices than from two to three feet
deep. At one point three of the embrasures
on this front appeared as if knocked into
one. - This, it should be rcmcmlcred, is not
on tho front of the fort where the combined
at t nek was made, but on that sido where
our Towels merely tJrcd us a passing compli
ment to the enemy in going in and ont from
their positions. Captain Rodgers remarked,
on hearing expressions of surprise at the
amount ol damage visible, that the damage
on this front was trilling, compared with
the holes bored into the northwest front of
the tort.
CONDITION OF OCR VESSELS.
The Ironsides, and each and all of the
seven Monitors arc, at the moment I write,
in as l'oou, it rot better, condition lor a
renewal of the tight than they were at first.
On six of them not a soul was injured, and
the men and machinery has been tested
under a heavy fire. The vessels nre covered
with the scar of war, deep identations, holes
through their smoke stacks, &.c, but not
one ot them received any injury that could
ho regarded ns rendering them less servicea
ble. Even the Nahant, which was most
roughly used, was ready for action at one
o'clock, a little difficulty in the working of
nor turret having been remedied bv the
mechanics sent here for that purpose This
was the vessel on which three men were
wounded by the flying of somo broken bolts

The Patapsco steamed off alone to Port
Royal yesterday afternoon, snd the Wee

any other vessel, was not iniured in the

concerned.
They will all return to Port Roval to-mor

will immediately send here commanders

be taken, but sympathize with the trulv

fate of a raft.
The Ericsson raft that Captain John
Rodger of tho Weehawken took with him
in the fight, using it ns a torpedo catcher,
was yesterday cut loose by him, its fasten
ings hiving becomo deranged, and floated
in towirds tho dimming' Point Battery,
about the time be was expecting the order
to moc forward. As it floated up it was
watched by tho people along shore, and
when it finally grounded it was laughable
to how careful they were in approaching
it, the impression being that it was an
internal machine of some description or
other. At first a crowd assembled on the
beach around it, and viewed it on all sides,
! n i one daring to venture upon it. After
about a half hour's inspection, one fellow,
more daring than tho others, jumped with a
pole a ross the surf and lighted on the raft,
lie nt first moved about very carefully,
inspecting all portions of it, nnd linaliy
bc;!'ii to strut about on it, as much as to
say "who's afraid f" When those on shore

Oit CiiAtti.ESTOX Bar, April 10, 19G3.
M'e are still lying off Charleston bar, and
the Ironsides, the Montauk, Weehawken,
Catskill, Nahant, 'nnt ticket and l'assuic are
holding their oosit ions' in line of battle
! alon"; the shore of Morris Island, the leiitliii";
M-sael beini; less limn two miles from Fort
Sumter, There they have laid since, tho
lii.lit on Tuesday, wholly inactive. The
l'alnpco left on Wednesday fur l'oi t Koyul.
The feeling in the fleet at this failure to
renew the attack on Fort Sumter is most
intense. I have heard quite a number of
ollicers assert that they feel themselves per
sonally disgraced and express the hope "that
a man should bo bent to take command of
the fleet."

It is now understood that the entire iron-

gut's S'liiadren, and participate iuopirntions
on the Mississippi. Tho effect of "this an
nouncement ou the ollicers aud men has
been quite cheering, as they have abandoned
all hope of reaping hotiors iu connection
with this squadron.
The delay of the fleet here is altogether
ou account of the arraugeineuts making for
the destruction of the Keokuk. The sea
has been rather rough for the work, und it
has not yet been accomplished, though hopes
nre entertained that il will be to-day. The
rebels are building a battery u the beach
opposite the wreck, and they are allowed to
progress with the work without intcrrup'
tiun. An occasional alull would stop them
but the order is uot to tire, as it would
only "have tho effect of irritating the
enemy."
Our tug boats are hourly passing along
the channel lrom ouo Mouilor to another,
w ithin easy range of the shore, uud as the
enemy doc not tire on thein, it may be pre
sumed that they have orders also "not to
irritate the enemy." How it will be, how
ever, when they get their battery finished
commanding tho lower bay is not known.
TUE Al'l'KARAM'E Or SCMTER.
The apearance of Sumter to-day, the
third biiieo tho bombardment, shows no
change. The Hebtl flag is flying, but the
State flag is down, it only being hoisted as
a signal of our approach of which there is
no sign to day. A large white tent has been
put up ou the angle of tho fort facing the
fleet, doubtless for the accommodation of
tho ollicers who are watching our fleet snd
the movement of the tugboats through iheir
glasses. They doubtless wonder what it all
meaus, and are as wise as us, who know
that it meaus nothing but imbecility, or
something worse.
Tho rai t which was "sent adrift from the
AVethuw ken still lies on the shore near Fort
Wagner. Large numbers of Rebels hourly
visit it, and after satiafyiug themsolvi that
it is harmless, go away.
M'MUEU or SUOT PIKED,
Our Monitors were all recalled from before
Sumter afir having encountered the full
force of the enemy s guns and tired out
their guuners, so much so that their fire ma
terially slackened. Most of the time they
were under fire was occupied in getting in
position, and they were recalled almost a
soon as the-y tomtntneed ictlre ork. Tory
were signalled back and forward during tho
wholo action in such a nervous manner that
they wero kept idle most of the time they
were under tire, Tho Patapsco, Captain
Amnion, fired twt-nty-sevcn shot and tho
Nantucket twentj-ono ; tho Weehawken
fired twenty-seven times; tho Nahnnt, I
believe, hrec. nineteen, and wns in position
within tour Hundred yards ot the tort. Tho
other Monitors fired from seven to twenty
guns. The Ironsides fired but six guns ot
Fort Moultrie, and was at no time nearer
than eighteen hundred yards of Sumter.
The Keokuk fired but three guns, the rid
dling she received having silenced her guns
nnd rendered escape nccettsary almost as soon
as sue got under lire.
rnic An.MT rtETrnnD.
About eight thousand troops were landed
by General Hunter in tho Stono simultane
ously with the appearance of our fleet before
Charleston. So soon, howevcer, as Admiral
Dupont abandoned the naval movement
these troops wore withdrawn, nnd are now
on their way back to Port Royal. The
troops landed on Scabrook's Islniid, at the
mouth of the Edit-to, have also been taken
back to Port Royal. Thus ends this farcical
attempt to take Charleston by laud und
water.
STILL llF.roRE CHARLESTON.
At sunset this (Friday) evening the fleet
still holds its advanced position, within two
miles of Sumter. Nothing has been done
to-day, the snme slowness in getting away
from here being evinced as thero was ill
getting here.
The flng of truce from Charleston on
Thursday wss to convey a requisition from
the enptain of tho captured steamer Isanc
Smith on the Admiral for money, which was
of course sent to him.
The explosion of the Keokuk will doubt
less take place to-morrow.

PlilLAHCLi'iiiA, .March 23. ISIi.t.
Dear Sir: Your lutier of tee 20th iust. is re
ceived, uud I will cheerfully irive the inforuiatiou
deidred by answeriug your iiucatious iu duo order.
1st. These lionds arc called "Five-Twenties" he
Cause while they arc tmviy year lionds, Ihey may
be redeemed by the Government in tiOLt) at any
time after fiva years. .Many poorle suppose that thu
Interest i only 20 per cent. Tui it. a misiuke ;
they pay Six per cout. Interest.
2nd. Lcjrnl Teuder notes or checks upon Phila
delphia or New York that will bring Leg.il Tenders,
are what Ihe Secretary ullows me to receive. No
doubt your nearest Dunk will give you a check or
Lcjiul fenders for your country funds.
The LVnds are bold at Par, the Iutcrcst to com
mence the day you pay the money.
4th. I bave made niranemenls with your nearest
Iiunk or banker, who will generally bate Ihe Itouda
on baud. If nut, you cuu scud the money lo me by
Expresa, and I will teud buck the lioiids free of
cost.
ith. The Bonds pay Six per eant, luterest in Oolp,
tlirtt per cent, oteiy six months, on tho tint day of
May and November, at Ihe .Mint in l'biladrlpbiui or
at any Sub-Treasury iu New Yoik or elsewhere. If
you have Coupon Ilonds. all you hat e to do is to cut
ihe proper Cdu)ion oS each six mouths, aud collect it
yourself or gite it to Buuk lor collection. If you
have li cgisterud lionds, you can give your liauk a
pow er of attorney to collect the interest fur you.
6th Tho duties on imports of all nitidis from
abroad must be paid in Gold, und this is the wuy
Bccretury Chote gets his gold. It i now being paid
into the Treasury at the ralo of Two Hundred Thou
sand liollurs each duy, which is twice aiuucbuhe
needs to pay Ihe interest In liold.
7(u. Congress has provided ihut the Bonds shall be
Pa I ii in LiuLD wbeu due.
Bib. You can either have Coupon Bond payable
to tho Leai or, or Kigincrcd liuuda payable u your
order.
flih The former are in 50's, 100 s. 500 's and 1 000 'a
the latter iu sumo amounts, also iioOO's and J10,-
OuO.
lin h . No ! You will not have to pay any taxes on
them Bouds if your income from Iheui does not ex
ceed $000 ; and on all above ftiuO you will only have
to puy one-half as much Incomo Tax a if your mo
ney waa invested in Mortgagee or other eountie. I
consider the tiovornmvut Bond a Jirst of all all
other Bouds are taxed one quarter prr ctul. to pay
the Interest on the tiovcrnnieut Bonds, and the Su
preme Court of Ihe United State bad just decided
thai no Slate, or City, or County, eau UxtaoTcriuuent
Bonds.
11th. The preee nt bonded debt of the United State
is lee than Tunes llt.MHiru MiLLioa, including
Ihe seven and three-tenth Treaaury Note ; but the
Government owe enough more ia the shupe of Legal
Tenders, Deposit iu th Sub-Treanurie, Cerliuoule
of indebtedness, do., to increase the debt to about
eight or niue buudred million. Secretory Chase has
caluulated that the debt may reach oue thousand,
even hundred million, if lie ItebellioB lasts eighteen
moniha longer. Ui, noweter believed now that it
will not last six Uonma lunger ; but even if it doe,
our National Debt will be small eouiparod with that
of Great Britain or Franee, whilst our resource are
vastly greater.
12th. 1 have no doubt that tb revenue will Dot
only be ample to nay th ordinary expense of th
Government aud all Intereat ou the Debt, but leaie
at least one hundred million annually toward paying
ofl the debt, and that (be Government will be able lu
get out of debt again a il ba l u before ia a few
