It is estimated that something less
than -$6,000,000 has been with-
drawn from the treasury daring
the past 10 days to enable New
York bankers to imke bids for
bonds. This is very nearly one-
half of the amount expected from
the bonds on preliminary pay-
ment. It is entirely safe to say
that more gold would have been
withdrawn from the treasury if
Secretary Carlisle’s determination
had not been made known to re-
ject, as far as he could, bids put
in by bankers who withdrew gold
from the treasury.
It is understood at this time
that tjie bond sale will be entire-
ly successful. The bidders .are
many, and New York nearly mo-
nopolizes the~market. That, is to
say, nearly all the bids have come
from that city. It is true, per-
haps, that many of the New York
bidders might be representing
European capitalists, but on the
face of the bids it is said that
New York ^stands out prominent.
It is said tliat’ Boston made bids
for about a million dollars’^wortb,
Philadelphia for about the same
airouut, Baltimore for about
1500.000. Tljiis is'onlyva general
estimate, because 'the treasury
officials are ’keeping very secret
. ibe bids and whence they pro-
ceed.
A general review of the bond-
ed indebtedness of the United
States will 6e interesting at this
time. Major John M. CarsoD, the
veteran journalist, who was clerk
of the Ways and Means commit-
tee of the house daring the Fifty-
fiist congress, sent the following
dispatch to his paper, the Phila-
delphia Ledger, tonight, which he
permits the lEepublic
to nse at the same
timfc:
“The addition of $100,000,000
todbe bonded or interest-bearing
deht of the United States naAwv
ally leads to inquiry touching the
character and bulk of that debt,
and a brief narrative of its man-
agement in the past will be of in-
terest at.this'time.
“The bonded debt is repre
sented by bonds which bear vai*y-
! ing rates of interest.”]’ In 'addition
! to the bonded debt %e have a
tton-interoet-bearing debt, which
consists of paper currency issued
by the government and matured
bonds which 'have not. been pre-
sented for redaction. The high-
est point’reached by the bonded
debt was $2,381,330,295. ( These
figures represented that debt on
AUgnst 31, 1865. The interest
charge on that vast sum was
equal to $150,9.77,698 per annum.
The vastness ofthis’indebtedness
will Jbe better comprehended
when it is explained'that, count'ed-
gold coin and reduced to
ndsj it would weigh'3,905’tons
pounds, or 4,374*’,tons of
i of 2,000 pounds. This debt was
incurred in the brief period of
ur years—1861 Mto 1865. When
the rebellion was suppr^lsed the
dispersion of the millions
armed men who[lhad been en-
gaged in the struggle'was]’not the
act that excited the wonder
rid. The promptness
the American people
$bout the work of restoration
ficuperaticn and the energy
ersistenee exhibited in the
secution of that work was no
es a cause for wonder and ad-
miration to European nations than
the immediate disbandment of our
armies.
The first year following the re-
turn of peace there was made a
reduction in the bonded debt of
over $49,000,000. For the fiscal
tion-in 12 years of $5S6,794,645, an
annual average of $48,899,554, In
the same period the annual inter-
est charge was reduced from
$150,977,698 to $97,124,511, and
the net ordinary expenditures of
the government dropped from
$1,217,704,199 to $144,209,963
The accumulation of gold for re-
sumption purposes added over
$90,000,000 to the bonded debt,
making the aggregate on July 1,
1879, $1,797,643,700, au increase
daring the two preceding years
of about $86,000,000. £rom that
date until the close of the fiscal
year ending with June, 1892, an-
nual redactions were made in the
bonded debt. The aggregate on
that date was $585,029,330, which
amount represented the interest-
bearing debt until February last,
when it was increased by the
$50,000,000 loan then placed.
“From July 1, J865, to Jnty 1,
1892, coversV\period of 27 years,
and in that period the interest-
bearing debt of the United States
was reduced $1,706,403,195, which: |
was aLthe average annual rate of
$64,6S4,933. The payments by
quadrennial, presidential periods
were as follows:
SPEAKER ~ CRISP TALKS.
DOES NOT THINK THERE
WILL BE MUCH LEG-
ISLATION THIS
Winter. Talk of Defeating
Income Tax Appropria-
tion Absurd. Sugar
Influence Powerful
to Prevent It.
Washington, Nov. 30.—Speaker
Crisp does not believe that the
coming short session of congress
will be productive of much legis-
lation. “It is very important,”
he says, “that there should be
some legislation on finance. I am
not prepared to predict what, if
anything, may be done at this ses-
sion, but it must be apparent to
every one that the present situa-
tion should not be permitted to
remain long. Whatever sugges-
tions the administration has to
make will be awaited with great
interest. Whether or not Mr.
Carlisle will present a proposition
which will meet with general ap-
proval no one can say until the
message comes in. A financial
system which puts it in the power
of any one to deplete the treasury
of gold and to compel the govern-
ment to increase its interest-bear-
ing obligation by the issue of
bonds is vicious and should be
corrected as speedily as possible.”
He refers to the majority of the
house judiciary committee of the
session differing with the
secretary as to authority to issue
bonds, though he is unable to say
whether there would be any dis-
cussion of the recent bond issue.
The house never passed upon the
result, but the speaker thinks it
may be considered.
The speaker does not think
there will be any tariff legislation

“ In 1873, President Grant,
$450,172,022.
“ During the second term of
President Grant there was an in-
crease of about $1,500,000.
“For the four years ending
June 30, 1881, President Hayes,
the reduction was $72,320,750.

$151,000,000 to $22,894,194, which: j Mr. Crisp does not think there
was th^silfii paid on this account; (jig any necessity for any measure
fur the*[fiscaK year ending June, jj to raise additional revenue as the

pal alone represents an aggregate

can comprehend unless it is re-
duced to sums’and applied to di-^
visions of time ^ith which they
are accustomed to deal. For the
better comprehension and illus-
present law when it gets fully in
operation will raise all the reve-
nue needed.
He regards as absurd the talk
about defeating the appropriation
to put the income tax in opera-
tion.
As to other legislation the

A Herald of the Infant Year.
Clip the last thirty years or
more from the century, and th«
segment will represent the term
of the unbounded popularity of
Hostefter’s Stomach Bitters. The
opening of the year 1895 will be
signalized by the appearance of a
fresh almanac of the Bitters, iu
which the U3es, derivation and
action of this world-famous medi-
cine will be lucidly set forth.
Everybody shoul<^ read it. The
calendar and astronomical calcu-
lations to be found in this bro-
chure are always astonishingly
accurate, aud the statistics, illus-
trations, humor aud other reading
matter rich in interest and full of
profit. The Hostetter Company,
of Pittsbugh, Pa., publish it them-
selves. They employ more than
the anti-option bill, which the
senate should dispose of before
the close of the session. A num-
ber of things may be attempted
but there is no programme
ranged and everything depends
npon what the general feeling is
when we all get together.”
the finishj^ig shops of the graded
system, under the name of high
schools, and^. of course, free
schools. Many of them were old
foundations, with traditions, hav-
ing a distinctive character as well
as a permanent fund. In these
old academies were educatfed
many of the men and women who
have been most distinguished in
our day in letters, iu law, in poli-
tics and theology. They had a
certain independent, stimulating
life. Perhaps, they had not the
facilities, the apparatus, the range
of the modern high school; they
did not demand sobnucli, or rath-
er not so many things, but they
had quite as high a flavor of learn-
ing and culture, and the education
that they gave was a training for
life, for which those who experi-
enced it always look back with
gratitude. They had individuality,
and to lose that out of any educa-
tional process is to lose something
very valuable in experience and
memory. The character and
efficiency of t.he'academy depend-
ed almost altogether upon the
principal and the teachers. There
were some good academies, which
had fame, and some poor, and the
same academy, changing its mas-
ters, had sterile and fruitful peri-
ods. Indeed, it must be admitted
that the usefulness and reputation
of the academy (or the seminary,
as it was often called) depended
upon the character and the talent
for teaching of its masters—that
is, upon the power of individual
initiative. And that it shonld do
so rests upon a sound theory. The
education of a mind depends, with
here and there an exception, upon
the influence on it of a superior
mind, and preparation for a useful
life depends also upon contact
with superior character in the
formative period. This influence
is not the property of a machine,
though the machine has its uses
in training into habits of order,
method and routine. The teacher
is the only inspirer. If his per-
sonal influence is lacking to the
pupil, the scholar may be passed
along through the whole graded
system and finally emerge from a
college with a mind unawakened.
I do not say that there are not
in the primary and secondary
schools of the graded system
many excellent teachers
are. Wherever you find fhetn you
find as good schools as the system
will permit, and you commonly

prescription of textbooks, its mul-

old academies incompetent teach-

The education of youth must be
under the control of men who
know what education is. There
is no stimulus for awakening a
mind like the contact with anoth-
er mind superior to it. There is
uo way to create au ideal of a
good and useful life so powerful
as the contact with a high and
noble character. In the early and
impressionable years these influ-
ences of superior intelligence and
noble character tell most. The
awakening of the mind is the most
difficult task the educator has.
Therefore for the lowest school
are needed teachers of high culti-
vation and high aims. And these
fine qualities will count for more
there than in any other stage of
the progress of the youth into
citizenship. But this superior
ability must be paid for adequate-
ly. The safety of the state, there-
fore, lies in the total reform of its

Last of Col.

Dallas News.
It is pretty safe to say that the
age of adventurous speculation
has passed away for an indefinite
period, if not for all time, in this
country. The handy “bonanza”
is now a dream of the past. A
bnndred soft snaps that had “ mil-
lions” in them during the heyday
of Cal. Sellers have been explod-
ed,leaving many brave and worthy
investors, as it were, fragments in
the soup. Then bun lreds of
more substantial and more worthy
enterprises have gone to the wall
as a penalty for untimely effort to
grow too fast. Even under con-
servative management established
institutions have gone down be-
cause of the failures of adventur-
ous customers, the victims of
speculation or of speculators.
Altogether the leveling that has
been going on in this country for
two years has been something
startling. The change is attrib-
utable to many more conditions
and causes than any one person
can understand. The troubles
are traceable to suicidal laws of
taxation and exclusion; to-disas-
trous financial legislation; to ca-
lamity-howling demagogues; to
communistic crusades against in-
vestments and property rights;
to class legislation by the states;
and in the loss of negotiable pa-
per and other kinds of circulating
credit. It has checked railroad
and factory building. It has
thrown thousands of employes
out of work. It has demoralized
the business of the country. Such
results have followed in precisely
the satjre way time and again in
the past. We must learn our les-
son whether we wish to do so or
not. The age of wild schemes,
big bonanzas, soaring prices and
sky-scraping speculation has
passed and we must now come
down 4.o close margins and brass
tacks. That is what it all means,
and if we proceed promptly to
adjust ourselves to the new life it
will be much better for everybody
iu the end. It is doubtless well
that the babble burst before it
grew larg^ enough to destroy the
nation by its exploskm. It is be-
lieved that the worst is now past
aud that the cheering sun of pros
perity and hope is rising again.
The disaster has been great, aud
yet we may be brought to see
very clearly in the eifd that ours
has been a timely and lucky es-
cape.
