NATIONAL DEBTS. Another Letfer from Ex-Secre- tary DlcCulloch. Tho Reduction of the National Debt the Traditional Policy of tho Unitod States. Other Natfons Increasing Instend of Ree ducing {heir Debis--=Natlonal Borrowing Made Easy, Loxpox, April 19, 1875,— To the Fdilor of the New York Tribune: The traditionsl pulicy of our country—if a nation that Las not comploted ita bundrelh yosr may Le raid to have s tradi- tional policr—%ias heen to commence the pav- ment of {tsdebt s moon a4 the necerity which creatad it fiad pasred away. The Uuitod States were horn in debt, but from tho organization of the Government to Los present dny x nationsl debt has been regarded by the peonle as & burs den frotn which thoy whould Le relioved sa rap- idly 5 was poeeible, Twice since tho colonton becamo & pation the Government has been vir- tually free from dokt. At ono period la ita his- tory, not only was tho national dobt entircly extinguishied, but thers wan 80 largs 2n accumulation fu the Treasury arising ale most oxclusively from customs duticr, that relicf from the plethora could only bo found Ly & distribution of the surplus revenus among tho Btates. If the dobt jucurred in the sup- pression of the Rebeilion was created with extraordinary rapidity, its reduction has been still more axtraordinars. Thodebt of the United Btafen on the 1kt of Heptember, 1965, was £2.757.649,673, a8 exhili'ed by the books of tha Treasury. This was not, however, the totel smonwt of the delt. liere wore st that timo large unadjusted claimw rgaivat the War and Navy Dopartments, —chiofly against the former, —wlich wero prid Ly tigaa Dopartments ont af thair appropriations, sl which Lava nover ap- paared upon the Lreasurer's books ag a part of thr nationail deht, The actunl debt adjueted and not adjuated: at the clora of tho War, or rather at the dixbanding of the Federal army, wat not loss than £3,000,- 000,00 Qu the ‘lét of MMarch last, it was 42,11 7,959, the roduction iu ninc.and-a-half years having boen 2452.034,011, or ot tho rato of over £90,000,000 per souuw. Nothing like this, and niothing ¢ all comparable to i, illustrates the finaneial history of suy other nation. It is true that tho exawple of the United States ia not being generally fuilowed by other nations, but this sbould not suake our contidence in the correctuers of whut 1 have called our traditional policy, Tt i3 more thon Likely that thio reduction of tho delt waa for sume voars too rapid, but I am satisfied that no judicioun taxa- tion, the object of which ia to reduce the public debt, and which does not affeet injutiously the induatrisl intercsta of the country, will ever bo regarded as burdonsome by the poople of the United States, ’ The Becrotary of the Treasury, 1n his report of Decomber, 1565, undoubtedly gave oxpression to tho truo seutimeut of the pooplo when he Eaid ¢ */Ihe debt is Iargro,but if Lkept at home, as it is desirable it should be, with a judicious syetem of tazation, it need not bo oprossive. It in, how- ever, 8 debt. While it is capital to the holders of tho securitics, it is still & nationul debt, and an incumbrance upon the mational estate. Neither ita advantages nor its burdens are, or can be, ehared or Loroe oqually by the people. Tts influences ars_anti-ropublican, It adds to tho power of the Executive by increasinz Fed- oral patronage. It must ba dietasteful to the people, becaure it fills the country with in- formers and tax-patherers, 1t is danger~ ous to the public virtue, breause it fo- volves the collecticn tnd disbursoment of [ largo sums of monoy, acd renders rigid notional economy almost impracticable. It 1, in & word, o national burden, and tho work of remorving it, no matter bow desirable it may be for individual investment, should not bo postponed, Aa all trae men desire to leave to thicir heirs unincnm. bered ostates, fo should it be the ambition of tha peoplo of the Urited States to_relieve thierr de- scondanta from this national mortgage. Wo need not be anxious futuro goncrations should share tlo burdena with us. Wars aro not atan enq, and posterity will have cnough to do o take caro of the debts of their own creating.” 154\_’::0 when Lo further said, in his roport of 67+ +:01 debis aro hard to pay : the Tonger they ars continued the moro odious do they bocome. If the Emmm gouoration should throw the burden of thiy dobt uvon the vext, it will ke r,uito likely to bo handed down from one géneration to ap- otber, s porpetual, if not s coostantly incres ing, burden upon the people. Our country in full of enterprise and resources. With a proper reduction in the expenses of the Government, aud with & revonue syatorn adapted to tho in- qustry of the countrs, aud not oppressing it, the debt may b paid befora the oxpiration of tho presont centnry, The wisdom of & policy which sball bring sbout such a result is fudicated in advance, by tho history of nations whoae peoplo ‘are burdened with inhierited debts, and with no prospect of reliof for themsolves or their pos- tericy.” ltfa to bohopod that nothing will occur to cliange the policy of the Government inangu- ratod st its birth and steadily continued to the present time. Admitting oven that it may be neither needfutl nor derirable that {he national debt wbould bo entirely ostinguishad ; that a certain amount of Govermmont secuntios will always be required to sccure tho circulation of the National Banks for public and private trust, ote., ete,, it will be somo years bofore thedobt will bo so roducerd as to rendor it necessary to inguiro what amount of public sccurities will bo noedod for thess purpoaes, aud whether or not tho noint has been reached below which tho ro- duction sliould not be carried. But whilo it has alwaya been the policy of the United Htates to commence the reduction of the nblic debt as moon as the exigency which ronght 1t into existenco had ceared, a different policy has been pursued and still prevails among most other nativne, Germsuy is quite free from debt. Belgium and folland are rapidiy redacing their debts, and Great Britain ia moring slowly (it in & wondor that #0 wiea a natioushould movo so slowly) in the samo direction.
