1816 to subdue the august Napoleon, at one time combining all the continental nations ofEurope for British overthrow. I do not allude to these things for the pur- pose of creating alarm or exciting the fears of the country, only to arouse the country to com- prehend the magnitude of this war, and to begin now to lay the necesKiry taxation "to support it, so that we may not in the future find ourselves unable to sustain the credit of the country. That Is my object and intention in calling the at...ten- tion of the House to the enormous expenditures of the War Department. A thousand million dollars per annum, Mr. Chairman, a bUlion dollars — I do not know how it is with others, — but I must confess that to my hmnble mind these sums are so appalling thai I can hardly begin to comprehend their gigantic magnitude when we are called upon to transmit them to our children as a public debt. I confess that I often turn back to the olden times in the history of this Government. I was here in this House at a time when the expenditure by thisGo- vemment of forty-four, forty-six, or forty-eight millions was regarded as an enormous extrava- gance, and that was not long ago, in 1849-50, 1851-52.
