It is all kept at home. But the mammoth foreign debt which the Northern journalists propose to contract for the purpose of carrying on this atrocious war against the South, will be due to Europeans — generally to English capitalists. The money paid for interest will have to be sent abroad. So that the prospective national debt of the United States will be a very different affair from the national debt of Great Britain, even supposing they were certain of resources to fall back upon to pay the interest.
