Debt.
Most men would be very highly insulted,
if you were to tell them they were untruth
ful, because nothing is more ruinous to a
man’s than flying. Almost all
nations of men condemn the practice, yet,
he who promises to pay his fellow man any
thing, and then refuses to do so, has told an
lintruth. What a pity it is that the obliga
tion to pay debts, is so lightly felt, even
among those who profess Christianity.
The mo r al responsibilities of that man are
blunt irnleed, who will call upon his neigh
bor tor credit and having obtained it, then
refuse to pay for it. The least that
can be said of him is, “he lied.” If we
could awaken at this point, a keen sense ol
the obligation to pay debts, so that fltis mor
al sense would become restive, an I unsatis
fied, until it had fully, and freely paid the
last farthing of its liability, we wonld ac-:
Complish more real good for the communi
ty than had we obtained for them all the
’ State aid they desired. For here you im
prove that, without which, no Government
ean long exist; and it existing, not worth
living in. Every honest man will admit
(hat it is wrong not to pay debts, and yet,
thousands refuse to pay, some under one
pn text, and some under another, forgetting
that nlUyp vir ues are in harmony—never
in conffltU tfterfce nothing justi
; fy the refusal to pay. More than this, a
man with a fine moral sense, is not going
into bankruptcy, homesteads or exemptions,
■ for the purpose ot getting hold ot one end of
the rope, as he calls it, so that lie may dic
tate terms to his creditor.
It is admitted that the question of Fi
nance is a mystery. How it is that every
nation on the globe, and nine tenths of the
whole inhabitants, are in debt, lhe writer
has TMi mearoof knowing. Yet. such is tiie
fact, aniFpeotflc fifrXiwedWwW, ahn6st
crushed by the weight vs lhe public debt.
Now, If everybody would keep out of
debt —and there is no way so good as to
pay out—and tcaefi men in power, that it is
not intended for them to make a public
debt, but to economize, times would be pros
perous and happy. Taxes would be light,
and government a success. One of the
main reasons why times are hard, is, because
people refuse to pay what they owe, not
that the small amounts due by debtors
would change the time*, but
here coatemied for— devel
oped, it would beget confidence, and where
there is confidence unrvmally among men,
times cannot be bard. The policy urged
here, is not designed for men of means in a
sense that would increase their property,
nor is it written to court their favor. A
higher purpose moves the writer. He
would tabor for the poor man, the man
who by dally labor has to live, and urge
him to observe the principles set forth, in
order that bis lot may be made easy. Show
the writer a poor man who is honest—one
who would scorn to seek exemption laws
for protection, as it is usually called, from
his creditors, and be will show yr>u one
who will never suffer for bread in any civil
ised community. a lower of strength
is nonesty, to every man. especially lhe
poor man! Who doea not love an honest
man? The Divine mind, with al! His in
| finity ot wisdom, never uttered a sentiment'
I wuh reference to man, truer, nor purer, in
| the magnitude of its meaning, nor one more
i worthy us N’ing pondered and treasured up ■
; in the mind of man, than when He aaid: ,
“If you have been unfaithful in the unrigh- j
teous mammon, who will commit to your «
trust, the true riches;” showing, that he who
j refuses tooliserve, and to do, that which is ’
| equitable snd just, is made to measure and ;
