Respectfully, Tours, •
J. F. 11Aumartar,
Auditor General.
This "looks very well on paper," but un
fortunately for General liantrardt and Mr.
Grow, the public records show that the Rad
ical party, instead of applying the people's
money to the payment of the State -debt,
have squandered at for other purposes.
Gov. Geary, in his last annual message,
states that the total State debt in 1866 was
/35,622,052.16. Auditor General liartranft,
in his annual report for 1887, says that the
amount in the Treasury,on the 30th of No
vember, 1867, "applicable to payment of
balance of over-due loans," was, $2,937,978.-
SS. Now, if during the intervening year,
from 30th of November. 1866, to 30th of
November, 1867, the Radicals had not in
creased the State debt, It would have stood,
at the latter date, at the precise sum of
684,073.71, which we arrive at thus : • -
State Debt Nov. 30,1866 $35,622,052.16
Deduct balance in Treasury
applicable to payment of
overdue loans, Nov. 80th,
1867, - - - - 2,037,078.55
$32,684,073.61
But instead of this sum, the Auditor Gen
eral fixes the debt on the 30th or November,
1867, at $34,766,431.22, and in his reply to
Grow, says that on August sth, 1868, it was
$33,651.657.37. Now, we have shown that
if the debt had not been increased during
1867, it would have been but $32,684,073.61,
or $967,563.86 less than (len. liartranit says
it was on the sth `of August, 1868, prciving
that the debt was increased nearly one mil
lion since the 30th of Nov., 1866.
But we do norstop here. The Constitu
tion provides (krt. XI, Sec. 4) for, the crea
tion of a Sinking Fund, to be applied to the
payment of the principal and interest of the
State debt. In accordance with this pro
vision of the Constitution, the Democratic
Legislature of 1858, enacted a law providing
for the creation of a Sinking Fund: •It is
this enactment that has enabled the Radi
cals to do what little they have done toward
paying off the debt mid • to dispense with the
tax on real estate. If they bad carried it
out faithfully and honestly, as will be shown,
they could, by this time, have cancelled the
entire debt or the State. This Act (see Pun.
don's Digest, page 914) provides as follows:
"For the purpose of paying the present in
debtedness and • the • interest ohereesa, and
such further indebtedness as may hereafter
be contracted on the part of the Common
wealth, the following revenues and income
are hereby specifically appropriated and set
apart, to wit : The net tuanuntineotne of the
public works that now are, br may hereafter
be owned by the COmmonwealth, and the
proceeds of the sale of the same heretofore
made, and the income or proceeds'id side of
stocks owned by the State, and all revenues
derived from the following sources, to wit:
From Bank Charters and dividends.
, Taxes assessed on corporations and all the
sources of revenue connected therewith.
The tax on taverns, eatthrbonsua;
taurants, distilleries, breweriea,tetailers, ped
lars, brokers, theatres, circuses, billiard and
bowling saloons, ten pin alleys and• patent
medicine licenses.

On auction commissions and duties.

Escheats.
Collateral Inheritance tax.
•
Accrued Interest.
Refunded tax, and all Ole, ;mating, or be
questa, or the revenue derived therefrom,that
may be made to the State and not othenvise
directed."
The receipts at the Treasury, from these
sources, as per the statements of the Auditor
General's office, from 1860 till 1887., inclusive,
font up the enormous sum of TWENTY
FIVE MILLIONS, THREE HUNDRED
AND FORTY-SEVEN THOUSAND, SEY;
EN HUNDRED AND FIFTY ONE DOL
LARS. We give the receipts for each year,
as follows

$25,317,75100
Sow, these twenty-five millions and up
wards ought, under the law, have gone into
the Sinking Fund, and to have' been applied
to the reduction of the State debt. If they
did not ,go there and were not so applied,
where dui they go and to 'what use were
they applied ? ' This is a question Which the
people will 'ask the Radical State officials,
and to which they.will demand an boxiest,
straightforward answer. •
Subtract " this stun 'from the amount of the
State Debt as it stood in 1860, and instead of
$33,651,637 47, which, according to General
Hartranft, is the sum of the.debt at present,
there would remain but $12,622,00650, thus :
State Debt in 1860, • - $37,969,847 50
Amount set apart for Sink
ing Fund, since 1860,
412,622,096 50
instead of thfs,'General ffarfmn(l, assures
us that daring the eight years of Radical ad-_
ministration,-the. debt. has , been decreaaed
but $4,218,207 03, shoning that upwards of
TWENTY-ONE MILLIONS of the receipts
of the Sinking Fund have been used for
other purposes than the reduction of the
State debt. Will somebody explain what
those purposes were, and 'whither those
twenty-five millions have gone?
Meanwhile, let it be remembered, that
from taxes upon real and personal estate,
from war loans, from payments by the United
States, and from other sources of revenue, as
per the reports of the Auditor General's of
fice, there were received at the Treasury
since 1860,813,107,531 91. ' Add this sum to
thlt which should have been set apart for
th ; Sinking Fund, and st.e have a total of re-
ceipts at the Treasury, exclusive of loans,
since 1860, of

1861, increased these receipts to $41,930,282-1
91, and the loan , for the redemption of the
orw-due bonds,licreased them to $64,930,-
283 91, or nearly doable the amount of the
State debt in 1860. Out of these receipts of
newly SIXTY-FIVE MILLIONS, not quite
four and a half millions have been filtered
into the Sinking Fund for the reduction of
tln• State debt!
General Hartranft informs Mr. Grow :that
"the interest is stopped on $851,641 13 of the
State debt?' But he conveniently forgets to
stcte that upon the bulk of the debt the 'rate
of 'nterest has been increased from 41.2 and
6to 6 pet ceht. Formerly the greater por
tioa of the State loans was at 'Sand 4 1-2 per
celtt, interest. Now $25,311,180 of those
loans are at 6 per cent., showing an increase
of interest upon That 'sum payable annually
by the State, of $253,11180. The yearly hi
terest at 6 per cent., on $851,641 13, now ex

his interest on his bonds in gold,whiTe every

from twenty.five to thirty per cent. on his

to work.
4. The New Englandetrinufacturer, who re
ceives an immense bonus in the shape ufpro

of the pockets of the laboring classes, who
are compelled to buy 'them.
r. The railroad monopolists to whom Con

roads and have a great deal to spare ! A few

immense interests draining its heart's-blood,
that the country has ceased to flourish, and
that its great resources are being dried up.

FWe've laid thee, darling papa, down.;
To this lone, dreamless sleep,
:While we live on, to toil and care,
1 To sigh, and mourn, and weep.
At gentle evening's holy calm,
At twilight's witching hours,
We leave our home, and bring for than
These fragrant summer flowers.
We place them o'er thy pnlscrees heart,
And o'er thy stricken head,
,For tenderly we think of thee,
' Though thou art cold and dead.
Fond metnory lingers o'er the past,
, In early chiltlhoodt Mara,
!When thy caressing, tender care
Radon% a path or flowers.
We little thought to tap thee here,
When once in merry glee,
We listened to thy fairy tales,
And sat upon thy knee.
And when disease so quickly came,
Altd thou could'st not e'en speak,
We loved thee still more tenderly.
Because - you were so weak.
'Tis very sad to leave thee here,
And to our homerepair--
To miss our father's welcome smile,
And see that "vacant chair."
We say -unto these aching hearts,
Bcquiet, cairn and still,
For God is wise and very good—
We how unto Ma will.

Greenbacks for Bonds.
Carreni'y for the Government and the
People, the Laborer and the Oita-holder, the
Penoioner,the Soldier,•the Producer, and 'he
Bondholder.
The bondholder demand.; gold for his
bonds ; the soldier must take greenbacks for
his pension.
The bondholder demands gold tbr Lis
bondsn ; the laborer.must take greenbacks for
his daily toil.
The bondholder demands gold' for his
bonds; the farmer and the Mechanic must
take greenbacks for their productions. The
soldier's pension of $l5 is worth about $lO
tta gold ; the bondholder's $l5 in gold are
worth $22 in greenbacks. $1 in gold will
buy as much as $1.40 in greenback%
The bondholder obtains his gold And be
grows richer ; the soldier, the laborer, the
farmpr, and the mechanic, must take the
greenbacks, and they grow poorer.
The bondholder pays no taxes upon his
bonds, for they are exempt by law ; the sol
dier, the laborer, the farmer, and the mechan
ic, pay their own taxes and the bondholder's
too.
The bondholder gave greenbacks for his
bonds. Ito has drawn the interest in gold,
and now he demands gold for the principal.
In 1863 the average value of a greenback .
dollar wasseventy-one cents ; in 1864, fifty
cents; and in 1865, fifty-nine cents.
In 1864, the 'bondholder paid $250 in gold
63r a $5OO bond. He has-drawn interest in
gold upon it, to the amount of $l2O, which
Was worth at least $2OO in currency. If his
bond is paid in gold he has cleared $250,
worth now $375, and this added to theinter
est, makes a net profit of $575 in four years
on an investment of $250.
The gold to pay both principal and inter
est comes from the tariff that the Govern
ment lays on the poor man's tea, coffee and
sugar, for all other taxes are paid in curren
cy.
Every pound of tea pays twenty-five cents
In gold to the bondholder.
Every pound of coffee pays five cents in
gold to the InMdholder.
- Every pound of sugar pays four cents in
gold to the bondholder!
The whole debt is now twenty-six hun
dred millions of dollars. In the mouth of
July the interest bearing portion of it in:
creased sixty-seven millions, thus adding in
one month nearly four millions of annual in
terest to the burthens of the people.
Sixteen hundred millions of the debt are,
by this contract, payable in greenbacks ; if
this is paid in gold it adds eight hundred mil
lions to the value of the bondholder's claim,
and to the terrible load that now oppresses
the people and destroys their business.
The bondholders demand that labor and
production shall be taxed for their benefit ;
they claim that they are a privileged class,
-and exempt from taxation.
Pay the debt in greenbacks, and you re
duce the burthens ot, the people. Every
thing we eat, drink or wear, are now taxed
to pay the bondholder.
Pay the debt in greenbacks, and you pay
it in the currency the bondholder gave for
his bond. -
Pay the debt in greenbacks, and you stim

Pay the debt in greenbacks, and you pay
it according to the contract

GRAPE AND SCILAPNEL.
WE called attention last week to the in
genious manner in Which the Radicals in
Congress seek to cover up their enormous ex
penditures, by passing deficiency bills, in
cluding items not provided for in the regular
appropriations which meet the gaze of the
people: Since writing that article, we learn
from an authentic source that the late Con
gress has passed no less than three of these
deficiency bills, as follows
Deficiency No. 1
Deficiency No. 2 -

of the man who said he "did not care for the
lies, it was the confounded truths that hurt
him!! It is the "confounded truths" with
reference to the finances of the country, the
taxes, the debt, the squandering of the public
money on idle negroes, vagabond carpet
baggers, and corrupt politicians, that arc
grinding the Radical party to powder.

Grant and Colfax strong, for the reason that
he now pays no taxes on his money, draws
the interest in gold, and, if Grant is elected,
will get the principal in gold. This explains
the difference between the Democratic and
-Republican platforms.
Tue. Radicals have collected from the peo
ple $1,500,000,000 in the last three years of
profound peace. Mr. Dawes, a Republican
Congressman from Massachusetts, said in a
