Republican (nationalist) President Grant turns the presidency over to Republican Governor Rutherford B. Hayes (of the federal enclave of Ohio).  Grant is giving to Hayes a national debt that has shrunk from 2,600,000,000 to 2,200,000,000 Dollars, going from 21% to 13% of the Gross National Product, and from 69 to 48 Dollars per person.

       NOTE: The nation is still paying for the Panics of 1837 and 1857, and the War of Federal Aggression, through lawful and indirect (impost and excise) taxes placed upon manufactured goods.
