Nations dn not and cannot safe, ly accumulate money* to be used at a future day, andcxigencies'are constantly occurring in which-the richest and most powerful are under the necessity of horrowlntr. The rnil- leniai days, when nations shall heat their swords into plowshares anil their spears into pruning-h’ooks, and learn war no more, arc vet, according to all existing' indications, furl I 111 the future. Weak and defaulting nations I may maintain a nominally independent exist ence, but it will be by reason of the jealousies, rather than the forlitanmce of strouter pow ers. No nation is absolutely safe which is not inn condition to defend itself; _ nor can it he in this condition, no matter libw strong.in other respects, without a well-established fi nancial credit. Nations cannot, therefore, af ford to be unfaithful to their pecuniary obli gations. Credit to them, as to individuals, is money; and money is the war power of the age. But for the unfaltering confidence of the people of the loyal States in the good faith of the government, the late rebellion would have Ijevn a success, and this great nation, so rap- l idly becoming again united and harmonious, would bavc been broken into weak and bellig erent fragments. But tin. public faith of the United States lias higher -.onsidcrations than these lor its support. It io*ts not only upon the interests of tbe people, bit upon their integrity and virtue. The debt of the United States has licen created by the people in their successful struggle for undivided.<md indivisible na tionality. It is not a dclx imposed upon willing subjects by despotic »>thority, but one incurred by tbe people themsAvcs for tbe preservation of tlieir government—l,y tlie preservation of which, those who have been leagued together for its overthrow urtto lb^l as really benefited as those who have b«u battling for its maintenance. As it is a debt voluntarily incurred for tho common good, its burdens will bo cheerfully borne by the people, who will not permit them to ho pcr| manent, . The pnblic debt of the United States rep-1 resents a portion of tho accumulated wealth of the country. While it is a debt of the nation, it becomes the capital of the citizen. The means of the merchant, tlie manufacturer and farmer, and also those of tlie working man and the soldier, have been literally in vested in it; and it is an interesting fact—a practical evidence of the great resources of the coUntry-r-that so large an amount of their wealth could be loaned by the people to the governrffent without embarrassing industrial! pursuits. Notwithstanding more than $3,-1 000,000,000 of the means of tbe people of the United States have been thus loaned, no branch of useful industry has suffered by the investment. ’ ’ It is undoubtedly true that, if flic wealth which has been invested in tbe United States secnritica could have been employed in agri- cultnro, in commerce, in mining and manu- factnres—in opening farms and the better im provement of those already under cultivation in Imilding railroads and "ships, in working the mines, and in increasing tlie varieiy and amount of our manufactures—the nation would have been far in advance of what it now is in material prosperity. But it is also true, that, notwithstanding the large invest ments by the people of the United States in the securities ot tlieir govemment-^notwith- standing, also, more than two millions of men in tbe Northern States alone, were, for longer shorter periods, in the military service, and | least 700,000 tor a good part of the time the war continued were constantly under arms —and notwithstanding tlie immense waste of life, consequent upon operations so extensive and battles so sanguinary a3 characterized this memorable struggle, the larger part of tlie country, has still, since 1860, progressed both in wealth and population. The loyal Statc3 liavo advanced in material prosperity in spite' of the great drain thnt has been made upon them; and now that the war is elosed the Union is no longer-in peril, and the men that made the armies on both sides so cffcc- dernnity, past dust- ....

The Secretary would be gratified if the Tressury could be put at once in a condition to obviate the necessity of Issuing any more certificates of indebtedness, or raising money Of any kind of temporary loans; but lie may, for a short period, be obliged to avail him self of any means now 1 authorized by law for meeting current expenses and other proper demands upon tlic Treasury. Oftho debt falling due in 1867 and 1868, 9830,000 000 consist of 7 3-10 notes. It may bo regarded as premature to fund any con siderable amount of these notes within tlic next y«ar; but in view of tho fact that they are convertible into bonds only at the pleas- urc *5° holders, it wiU: be evidently prudent for Congress to authorize the Land for Sale or Rent- I .

The Secretary has already recommended that he be authorized to sell bonds of tho United States, hearing interest at -» rate not exceeding six per cent, for the purpose of re tiring Treasury notes and United States notes, lie further recommends that he be authorized to sell, in liis discretion, bonds of a similar character to meet any deficiency for the pres ent fiscal year, to reduce the temporary loan by sucli an amonnt as lie may deem advisa ble, to pay the certificates of indebtedness as they mature, and also to take up nnv portion of the debt maturing prior to 1809 that can be advantageously retired. It is not proba ble that it will be advisable, even if it could be done without pressing them upon the mar ket, to sell a much larger uinouut of bonds within the present or the next fiscal year than will be necessary to meet any deficiency of the Treasury, to pay the past due and matur ing obligations of the government, and a part of tlie temporary loan, and to retire an amount of tho compound interest notes and United States notes sufficient to bring back the business of the country to a healthier condition. But no harm can result from in vesting the Secretary with authority to dis pose of bonds, if the condition of tlie market will justify it, in order to anticipate the pay ment of those obligations that must soon be provided for. When the whole debt shall be put in sucli a form that the interest only can lie demand ed, until the government slinll be ill a condi tion to pay tho principal, it can be easily managed. It is undeniably large, but the resources of the country arc even now ample to carry and gradually to reduce it; and with the labor question at the South settled on terms just to the employer and the laborer, and with entire harmony between the difler- ent sections, it will he rapidly diminished in burden and amount, by the growth of the five and formidable, are to be again employ- j country, without an inert- w ('('taxation, ed in profitable pursuits, the onward march ; The following estimate of the time that of the country—even ifa temporary reaction,! would be required to pay tlie national-debt, os the result of the war, and tlic redundancy (it funded at five per of the currency, shall be experienced—will be decided and resistless. True .debt is large, but if kept at home, as it is desirable it should be, with a judicious system of taxation it need not be oppressive. It is, however, a tlejit. While it is Capitalto j t the holders of the securities, it is still a na- ■ -, tional debt, and an incumbrance upon the na- u< partmem haw the pn.peitv _ milu -, r\ ft^-., - in j Sttreh-l*. 1*8-.. ant. eaptno .1 an t »l.«ndo the -tl-!, r.f Mvrk ls.1, erivt.i t A, * V> rk,( the plates -'-sienafr 38.

A tw> nusof one-tenth of one percent, paid by the biddersfor five per cent, loans, would more than cover !8e excess the probability ,,, which fully warrants the calculation su’-mii ted as to the payment of the total debt at thi- rate.
