to deny these, propositions. Why is (k*
Richmond press silent on this i/itestion ?
REPUDIATION.
The Journal is opposed to repudiating anr part
of the Slate debt. The interest is part of It—the
it al "HiMiierali.iii. iv fuel, inducing the capital'
l-ls lul I money to our St::!.". Then the J-." -
not would pay nil the interest every year. Rut
it would have (lie money first paid inlo ths Ti.-a
Miry and then paid out itiuiin. Or is the iotimat
in favor of repudiation 'he interesl V h.
Yes; we are opposed to repudiation of
auy portion ol' the State debt in any form,
and it is a mutter of great regret tl.at
neither the Democratic press nor its leaders
agree with us in this particular, and it will
take a long time for the people fully to
comprehend till the villainies wrapped up in
that abomination of abominations, the
We wish now to call attention to another
feature of that bill, and to show that it does
actually repudiate, for the time being, one
third of the State debt. True it is not
done openly, but secretly, and in such a
roundabout way, and by tho use of such
false pretenses as were employed by the
Tammany thieves when they robbed the
treasury of New York. If a bondholder
refuses to fund his bond, the bill provides
that he shall receive no'interest at all. If
he consents to fund he receive two-thirds of
his debt in new bonds, and one-third in
certificates, but neither the principal nor the
interest of the certificate is ever to be paid
by Virginia.
That certainly is repudiation ; and not
only so, but of the most dishonorable kind;
for the bill undertakes to coerce the credi
tors, not even allowing them the courtesy
of being charitable, and voluntarily forgiv
ing the State one-third of the debt. It
provides that no interest shall "be paid
upon any part or portion of said debt ex
cept that portion which is funded at the
rate of sixty-six two-third cents on the dol
lar. Most people have some respect for
the courage, at least, of the robber who
rides boldly down the highway and de
mands the traveler's purse in open day
light ; but they hate and despise the pitiful
sneak thief and canting hypocrite who, pro
fessing honesty, robs contribution boxes or
steals pennies from a blind woman's Las-
Another infamous provision of the bill is
that which undertakes to coerce foreign
bond-holders into funding their bonds by
providing that only two-thirds of their five
per cent, interest shall be paid, and turning
them over to West Virginia, there to seek
for the other third. What will honest incn
call such a transaction ? What would the
mercantile community think of a mer
chant who, professing to be honest, refuse.-,
to pay any portion of his debts unless bis
creditors will relea.se him on his giving
his notes for two-thirds, taking a disputed
claim against another merchant for llie
other third ? They would say ho was a
sneak as well as a rogue.
Does the Dispatch think that such I
measure of bad faith and injustice as this, is
calculated to induce capitalists to lend
money to the State? or that these loi
bond-holders, who have thus been treated, j
will send more money here to be. passed
through the fame depleting process? The
truth is, this transaction has not one single
feature that can challenge the approval or
command the respect of any man, mer
chant, or statesman, who fully understands
it. The public judgment will bo, that the
authors of the Funding Dill lacked couitsg*
to proclaim their purpose to repudiate, but
were unprincipled enough to undertake, for
gain, to do it secretly.
These money-changers and bond-holders |
were willing, and did in fact deliberately.!
expose the old Commonwealth to the re- |
proach and disgrace of repudiating her pist
debts; and, at the same time, her
in a position where she could not pro/it In/
the disgrace. Merciless and mercenary,
they framed that bill with express refer*
ence to the final execution of another still
more monstrous and outrageous scheme of
fraudulent speculation, which will be
shortly developed by them, and it is this:
After these certificates have been cheap
ened in the market to about ten cents on I
the dollar, or perhaps less, these rogue , ;
knowing that West Virginia will pay no
part of them, will suddenly discover that it
would be very dishonorable for Virginia to
repudiate any portion of her just debts. In

The work ha - already been comment * d,
brokers and bondholders in the secret, are
already buying up these certificates at
about twenty ccn'.s on the dollar; bad as
is the present condition of the people, fla
ttie plans of these mercenaries contemplate
an even greater calamity to be inflicted up
on them. Disgraced as the Commonwealth
already has been by these liemocratic lead
ers, they propose to sink her slid lower,
and rub her still further.

HARD TO A>S«I-:lt.
Under above caption the Enquirer of < let.
20tb, has an article upon "the almost total
destruction of the shipping business," for
.which it attempts to blame the present ad
ministration and its policy.
lloth premises and conclusions Set forth
in the article, are lame and impotent, but
we give them a cursory review, and pre
sent such official .statistics as ellcctually de
molish Mm premises, and refute the conchi-
The Enquirer is more faithful than wise
in its blind following of the New York
Woild, when it recalls to mind one of
the legacies its worshipped Confederacy
beipteathed to us. It is not nice for its ar
gument or wise to admit, as it is compelled
to do, that in 1801 the registered and en
rolled tonnage of the United States reached
its acme 1 —5,6*80,818 tons, an increase of
1,7117,1173 tons over the year IS.*>l, when it
stood :),772,409 tons.
If the party for which the Enquirer speaks,
think increased tonnage so essential to
national prosperity, was not the exhibit of
'II satisfactory? aud could not Unb
red contented with such rapid increase?
And, when they had deranged commerce
by their wicked rebellion, if tonnage was
the apple of their eye, why did. they send
pirates on Iho high seas, not (done to cap
ture and appropriate, but lo hum and ile
stroy it ?

"They talk to us about 'Rebel' Rams!"
sneers the Enquirer ,- and "re point to
above oflieial figures to show that paper,
they know what they art talking about, and
thai "here is a great leak somewhere,"
about which that paper professes such anx
iety.
The prime cause of decline in United
Slates registered tonnage was the rebellion,
which the Enquirer .'till excuses if it does
not boldly defend ; but other causes have
intervened io prevent that recovery of ton
nage capacity, which otherwise would have
been as certain ns it now is, (even according
to the Enfurr&*s figures) that the value ol
our imports and exports has increased.
Three circumstances have exercised a pow
erful inlluence, especially upon the class of
vessels formerly constructed by Webb; the
eminent ship builder, who had an inter
view with the President a few days ago in
relation lo the decadence in the United
States ocean tonnage.
First— The producing capacity of Califor
nia and other of the Pacific Stales has
rapidly increased, and home manufac
tures are superseding those sent from
Atlantic Slates, The completion of the
I'acilie railroad has entirely changed the
route of travel, to the Pacific coasl, and
passenger trade by the isthmus, is utterly
gone from ship owners. Steam, between
San Francisco, and China and .lapan, is
fast diverting a valuable trade, which gave
employment to our finest clipper ships.
and those cannot bo profitably sailed as car
riers of ordinaiy dead weight Ircigiits.
A cowl —The discovery of petroleum has
been a blow to our whaling fleet, far more
fatal than the Scarcity of whales, which
had for years previous made that business
let* profitable. To show this decline in
the tonnage of our whaling fleet, we give
j the official report of registered tonnage
i in the whale fishery ;
Lgj i«%
PBOI 1.1-, 7>jj
ism
Decrease of whaling tonnage, consequent
upon the discovery and utilization of petro
leum, 113,000 tons.
Third —As entire a revolution has taken
place in our Atlantic trade, ns in that of
the Pacific. Steam is superseding sail even
for heavy freight, and the profits of passen
ger transport (which is restricted almost
entirely to steam conveyance, for none
choose to be thirty and perhaps fifty days
on a voyage hy sail, when they can make
the trip at little extra expense in fourteen
days by steam,) enables these steamers to
cany freights almost as cheaply M sailing
vessels ; while tjie more rapid transit, im
mediate discharge upon arrival, and greater
exemption from damage by sea peril.-, in
evitably attract all fine freight to sleann-i-..
Say what we may in praise of the supe
riority of tho MM States over all crea
tion, we are compelled- to admit that in
ocean steam navigation we have compara
tively failed. The disastrous career and
end of lhe vaunted Collins line of steal
is the most prominent failure, but not the
only one.

and European labor, which, whclher cm

j allont, is worse paid, worse fed and wo; I
he-used than similar labor in tho United

i competition should be changed ; because if
tonnage dues were imposed upon foreign
I vessels entering our ports, retaliatory im

forced by foreign countries against our yes

gained nothing for our shipping interest c.\
