cultural and commercial interests of

The market reports are always correc.

and can be relied upon by the mercan-

correct and comvrehensive informa-
ticar.” |
In the issuc of the 11th inst., we find
in the Jowrnal an editorial headed,
“The Bonds and the Shipbuilders,”
from which we take a few extraets on
taxing the government bonds. After
giving the effect, of the exemption of
the Bonds, on the industry of the coun-
try, they give us a view of the feelings
of one of the largest shipbuilders in
that city, and the editors introduce it
as: follows :
“Mr. Donald M’Kay is not the on-
ly shipbuilder who ean “tell the same
experience.” Says that gentleman on
the 2nd inst., and he speaks the pres-
“ent language of all the shiphuilders in
the United States:
“Many of our fowmer large ship-
owners, and some of them were my
customers, tell me they prefer to in-
vest their money in government secur-
ities, which are exempt from taxation,
and thus receive a better rate of inter-
est for the year through, than from an
investment of an equal amount in com-
mercial property subject to taxation.
The people .are constantly flattering
themselves that some miraculous
change forthe better will take place in
the mechanical industries, but cannot
say how or when it will take place.
My opinion is, it will occur when an
equality in taxation takes place: tax
government bonds as other property
and ‘better times’ would soon follow.

The radicals usurpers clearly have no
confidence in the people; they do not
trust the masses, hence they lay these
dastardly plans to remain in power,
from which the people are yearning to
hurl them.

The radicals fear that the negroes

sure of the thing they are now endeca-

will be no election at all by the people
of the southern States, and that instead
the radical legislatures shall choose
electors who shall vote for Grant. This
as our readers will recollect, was the
old South Carolina plan, and for it she

DECREES AGAINST THE NATIVE
CHRISTIANS —Civii, WAR.
Loxpox, July 27.—Further advi-
ces from Japan to ‘the 30th of June
have been received. All the Minis-
ters of foreign powers in Japan had
united in a portest against the revival
of the Mikado's decrees against the na-
tive Christians.
The civil war continued to rage with
much violence. The troops of the
Milkado were in possession of all the
ports open to foreigners by treaty.
The brother of Itosi Bashi, the ex-
Tycoon, was at the head of the revolt
against the spiritual Emperor, and had
a large army under his command, with
which hé was gradually advancing on
Yeddo, in which city the party of the
Tycoon is very strong. There had been
some fighting between the hostile forces
in the vicinity of Yeddo, but no deci-
sive successes are reported on either
gide. It was thought that the war be-
tween the two parties, whose respective
strength and resources: sppeard to be
so evenly balanced, would result ina
division of the country into. two indi-
pendent empires, governed respectively
in my employ and employed in this vi-
famy run deeper, and usurpation take
by the Mikado and Tycoon.

Stevenson's majority in the city is

carried by majorities ranging from five
to eight thousand. Heavy gains
throughout the State as far as heard

| Tue whole argument upon the
| question concerning the payment of
the government bonds is pithily con-
densed by a New York journal in-the
subjoined propositions :
“If the law promised to pay the
principal of the five-twenties in gold,
the discharge of the debt in anything
less valuable would be a repudiating
swindle. Butif, on the other hand,
the law promised payment in green-
backs, the discharge of the debt in
something more valnable would be a
bondholders a gift.”
Any one who will take the trouble
to read the law will find that it did
five twenties in gold ; and that it did
promise, and pledge the faith of the
goveroment to the people that that
principal, and every other “claim and
cept in interest on the bonds,” should
be payable in money. What money ?
The laws of the United States now, as
then, in force, expressly answer by de-
claring treasury notes—“greenbacks”
—to be “lawful money and a legal
tender in the United States” for all
purposes that can be expressed or im-
agined except two which the law sets
forth. Outside of these two
exceptions, the law recognizes nothing
as money save “greenbacks.” Com-
merce accords with the law, and, in all
its multifarious transactions, knews no
other standard of value,—no other
money. Government does the same;
and Illinois, Indiana, Pennsylvania,
New York, and every other States in
the Union, receives its taxes and pays
its debts, thorugh contracted when
gold and silver were money, in the
money of the United States. Only
the holders of United States bonds, and
the party which advocates their demad,
say they will not take United States
money ; that it is not good enough for
them; that the people must be taxed to
death to pay them in a commodity of
greater value than the money they bar-
gained to receive, and the paying
power of which they promised the peo-
ple to maintain,
Compliance with the demand would
be, exactly, a “betrayal of the taxpay-
ers to make the bondholders a gift.”
The value of that gift would be ths dif:
ference between the value of the commo-
dity given and the noney which the
law says shall be received in payment.
If the whole amount of the bends be
$2000,000,000, the value of the gift
would be $800,000,000. Eight hun
dred millions of dollars is the sum
which the bondholders demand as a
reward for betraying the tax-payers.
