vice; we lax iron, The great necessary Of
civilization in all lis forms; we tax cloths
of woollen and cotton, though indespen-
sable to life; we tax fuel, though We cannot

fthink il expcdient to tax all these; on
many of them we lay the impost, without
discussing the question Of putting them

the moment we talk Of laying a moderate
! impost on a narcotic leaf from China, and
n narcotic bean from the the Arabian ne
ninsula and the isles OF the tropics-in.
ldulgences of luxurious and efemnate
age-the representatives of the people
rise .up almost TO a man, and declare the
measure inexpedient; asIf of all articles
of general consumption, these alone were
too sacred to be subjected to The common
contribution to the treasury. This is a
: kind of superstition that we confess we do
not understand.
y The country is in condition in which
; il is important to sustain IFS credit. How
can this be done if the government re-
: fuses TO avail itself Of those resources
which are most easy, obvious, and pro-
: ddclivel To satisfy the public creditor
that his debt is safe, he must see that none
Of those means which make il so are neg
lected. There is no tax which can he
more easily levied than the duty on tea
and coffee, none on which the aaaeunt OF
revenue may be more certainly calcula-
led, none the burden of which would be
less felt by the people. To increase the
duty on the articles already taxed, would
probably lessen the amount of revenue by
ildiscouragine importation. By laying a
duty on tea and coffee, a large addition
would inevitably be made to our revenue.
To reject proposition for such dlty,
is the same thing as rejecting the means
of placing the credit of the nation on the
firmest possible basis.

ron dated 26th, published iu the Picayune,
that Santa Anna has been elected Presi

Farms, Vice President. The writer adds
that Congress had been up TO the date of
the last accounts from The capital, entirely
occupied with the election. Zone or two
speeches have, however, beeu made upon
the state of the national finances, and the
means for raising money to carry on the
war. Ii is estimated that loan of mil
lion is Indispensable TO furnish arms, and
ii is stated that Santa Anna is urgently
calling on the Government to supply him
with arms and munitions of war. The
corps of the National Guards OF Mexico
is very poorly supplied. There is no in
dication that The peace propositions OF the
.United States will receive any favorable
consideration. The subject has not yet

CONGRESS AND THE WAR.-I would
require an oracle of more than Dcphc
forecast TO divine what Congress will do to
sustain the war, or whether it will do any
thing in that behalf. The proposition Of
the Treasury Department, enforced by
the Presidents message, TO lay a war duty
on tea and coffee, has been met in the
House by fat refusal 10 consider il at all;
and the recommendation Of the Execu,iSc
to create the office of 1t. General, has
been treated yet more scornIully. Tho
this proposition has been reinstated in The
House by vote TO reconsider, it is doubt
tu whether the House retraced its steps
to take up the subject seriously, or to qua.
ity the abrlptness OF its own proceedings.
In either case, the action OF that body
lacks dignity and frmness. Ii has been
spiteful or tickle, and from neither of these
characteristics of legislation can ANYTHING
satisfactory be inferred. In regard TO The
creation OF rank Of Lieutenant Geaeral,
we do not see that special need for such
an oihce as must necessarily make il
party or war question. But the imp usi-
ton of war duties upon "tea and coffee"
Is matter involving the efficiency, if not
the continuance, of the war. The AID.
urged The levyng of the du-
tes.wi,h warmth, as absolutely required
by the exigencies of the service.
E The House voted by majority Of over
two 10 one that il would not Law them.-~
What substitute will be offered Cor the
Treasury plan is not known; and il is
more than doubtful it any feasible one
will be presented. This decision of the
House leaves The country in sad perpext-
~ as to the opinions OF Congress 10 rela~
tion 10 the war.
Alter the House voted that il was "u.
expedient 10 lay war duty on tea and
cohee," a member jumped up and Of

United States were too patriotic to refnse
taxes required by the exigencies of war"
This resolution was OF course adopted;
bun following Immediately upon the refusal
to levy such duty, It was passed amid
