or advertising, cud hope our debtors will
favor us wi.i a prompt response.
Our nowaylal Trouble The
Remedy
Congreee 'has 'proved Deelf incapable or
unwilling to adopt such Bunch', measures
as are needed to relieve the business of the
country, and the warner public sentituent is
concentrated and brought to bear in favor
of practical monarch the better. It is only I
by ibis means proper action can he scoured.
All agree that the high rite of interest mild
by the. government is a hindrance to every
specie+ of individual enterprise. Let this
be the Snit point is which to demand re•
fors. A large muster of 6vc•twcuty
bonds are now redeemable at the option of
the governments Let them► be taken up as
epeadily as possible, and bond, at a lower
ramp of iabrest substitute I. The difficul.
ties of the present system are well set forth
by the Doylestown Denmerat as fellows
In cootie of tworersation, the other day,
with a Coaservative of Repubiican proclivi
ties, lee made thin remark : "There must tet
t►omotbing wrong when I cannot borrow the
thousand dollars on my real estate worth
forty thousand dollars." We agree with
hint, for indeed, there is something wrong.
and the sooner people cove to understand
what that wrung is, the sootier it will be
righted. This state of things really exist,
and men everywhere, in all communities,
begin to appreciate it. What used to be the
easiest thing, when there was money to Ivan
—borrow it on real estate security—is now
about the hardest, and unless there be some
change brought about it will become tail!
more dealt. Now what is the matter that
this state of things should exist? The an
ewer is easily made. The goverweent with
its paper goes into the money market and
overbids the .fartuer and all other persons
whose wish to borrow on real security. It
not only pays greater interest, but has the
happy faculty to exemptikt its own bonds
from every description of taxation. The
security it gives is of a lower grade than
that of the landholder, nevertileleee it van
borrow as much money as it waste
those who wish to borrow on 1101i.i.:4 or land
find it alneet impossible to do so. The
government monopolize the ►coney market
and drives other borrowers out, because it
gives a higher interest than individual . ; can
afford to pay. This is a true statement of
the me, and this is the reason why our
Diem!, 'mentioned in the beginning of this
article, could not borrow live thou•a el Jul.
Lars on real estate worth forty ihouseud.
Our readers irrespective of party. will
agree that this state of things should net
exist in a free government where there is
supposed to be equality of laws. The gov•
ernwent amid individuals should stand on the
same level in the n►oney market, and the
law should not give either party an advan
tage over the other. The government too-
Deputy over inveettnente works another in
jury, it makes a great deal of capital unpro
ductive. We have now locked up in
ted States bonds twenty-five hundred mil•
lions of what is really dead capital It
yields nothing to the bolder except the an
ted interest, tied the eotnery beeomes no
rioter on account of it. How much better
would it be were this immense: amount of
capital used to open new farms, build towns,
and erect manutketuring establishments.--
W bile it lies idle it bears none of the bur
dens of the country, mid the holdere of gov
erntuent securities are created a fevered
class. Notwithstanding all this our bonds
sell at a lower figure in the money markets
of Europe than those of any other country.
Even those of Turkey and Morocco bring
better prices, and while our 5.20's are worth
but 74 cents on the dollar in London, the
English Commis are worth 94 cents on the
dollar. Whether this arises from fear of
reputation, or other causes. we shall not
discuss ; but it shows that the government
monopoly over the money lender, exemption
trout taxation, se., which works an injury
to real estate, have failed to 'mike our se
curities as valuable as those of other come
tries.
,Now this state of things ought to be rem
edied, and the sooner the better—and how
it can best be done will be the great work
for the incoming administration. We want
to see the time come when the government,
the man who wants to borrow money to help
to pay for his farm, and the pour mau who
wishes to build a new house, will all enter
the market on an equal footing, and can on
ly offer, by law, the same rate of interest.—
Bat before this can be brought about, there
must be a new issue of government bonds
which bear a less rate of interest than the
present, and are not like them entirely ex.
ewpt from taxation. No principle is better
settled in this country than that every des
cription of wealth and capital should bear
&Just proportion of the public burdens, and
until it be carried out in practice there will
not be justice to all classes.

Despite their overthrow in the late l'Unl•
polka, the Democracy remain a rely, pow
erful poly. No ortoiniwnian in
our history Improved through tosih severe
trials and been compelled to bear such
ou3 burdens as has the Democratic party
during the pat fourteen years.
Nevertheless, in sphe at them adverse
drevmstonees. and of she dead weight they
carried in the revolutionary poiitic of their
candidate for V ice. President. the Democra
ey exhibited unexpected strength in the late
contest, and now stand upon the edge of the
battle field in powerful numbers, and under
remarkable state of diseiplin.
A fair estimate of the number of white
men disfranchised by tyrannical teal-lotion
shows that they amounted to nearly btu a
million. Had the people been prculitted to

weeniey were beaten by brute ['owe alone.
They knowhow they were treated, and err
able to see how victory was wrest e d from
their grasp. They naturally feel indignant,
and their resoluteness purpose is conse

properly describes the present attitude of
the Democratic party us "standing upon the
