The President on tho Public
Debt.
Speaking of Ibo public debt, in his re
cent wos-age, the President says !
"The public debt on tho 1st of July
,last, as appears by the books of the Trcas
ory, amounted to one billion seven hundred
and forty millions Bis hundred and ninety
'thousand four hundred and eighty-nino
dollara and forty nino ' cents. Probably
should the war continue for another year
that amount will bo increased by not far
from five hundred millions.
'Held as it is, for the most part,by our
' own people, it has becomo a substantial
hranoh of national, though private ptopor

-effect and without injury, be presented to
