~zssl4 SECOND DISPATCH
In-the Convention, to-day, in response to
the communication received from the Repub-
llcan State Committee asking the Democratic
state Committee to unite with the,a in hold
ing State Convention, after reviewing the
present condition and principles of the Demo-
crane party, the response says that it would
be well at this time to fill the leading public
Offices IN the Federal government to which
the condition of affairs belongs, with men
whose purity of character and capacity for
administrative duties were SO well known as
to command the confidence of the people; and
1t Is also probable that if this example were
set IN Federal affairs it would l,e followed by
the people IN the selection of their State off
GERS; but we would be false to the party which
we represent If we considered any proposition
OF union with former political opponents ex-
cept upon the basis of principle The re-
sponse concludes by saying '.WIe, are, there
fore, instructed by our Committee to say that
in their call for the usual Democratic Coriven-
ton they will invite all good citizens, who are
willing to cooperate with the Democrats to
these ends, to come together at the primary
meetings and unite in selecting representatives
to such Convention to nominate candidates for
the support of the electors of the State upon
this platform of union and patriotism -'.' ~

The Federal Taxes.

The new Income Tax and Internal Duties
Bill just passed by Congress will prove inter.
esting to all, inasmuch as its provisions con-
Germ almost every person engaged in daily la.
Dor. The levies generally reach only those
possessed of real estate interests, but this bill
extends to all the ramifcations of society, and
taxes the clerk proportiorately with the
wealthy merchant and land owner Its prin-
opal feature is the impost of tax of three
per cent. per annum on all yearly incomes Of
over $500, accruing after the payment of the
usual taxes, while in the case of foreign resi-
dents the rate is to be five per cent. The di,
rect tax is limited to $20,0O0,OOO, of which
New York is to pay s2,6o3,91s, a very large
proportion of course falling upon the city
Each State is permitted to do its assessing and
collecting in its own way, by the regular Off
GERS for such purposes, and thus any such
State is allowed Is per cent. Of the apportion-
ed tax as compensation, saving much expense
of collection.
The act, as first published, was materially
amended by the Conference Committee, who
struck out the proposed tax upon gold and
silver watches and pleasure carriages, and
abandoned the idea of excise upon domestic
liquors. While considerable revenue might
have been drawn from these sources, it would
require great deal of cumbrous machinery
to do the work.
The direct tax annually of $4,000, 900 is
apportioned among the several States as fo,-

Our Party and our Country.

In publishing the communication of Mr.
Robb, Ito be found in another column pro-
posing union of the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties on county ticket, we are
constrained to dissent, for the following
reasons:
l. The attempt to change existing political
organizations implies something inherently
defective in those organizations, or that selfish,
personal or party ACKNOWLEDGMENT is the end
sought This we are unwilling to admit of
the Republican party. We have advocated
its principles because We believed them to be
right, and shall continue to do so as long as
they meet with opposition.
2. IN our opinion loyal Democrats and Re
publicans can more efficiently support the
government in the present crisis, through
their own respective political organizations,
than by forming third party. We are
not one of those who believe that the loyalty
of our Democratic friends is of that cheap
kind which must be purchased by the Repub-
licans forswearing their political views and
giving Democrats share of the offices. If it
is, it is not worth the purchase.
3. We do not believe that the Republicans
could effect fusion in our county if they
should try. 1t has been attempted frequently
Of late without success. The State, where of
all the States in the Union, fusion has been
most popular-we mean New York-has just
made a notable failure in that line The Re-
publicans, being in the majority, made the
first advance, but the Democrats rejected all
advances, and have decided to adhere to their
own party and run a ticket of their own.
Such is the result also in Ohio, where the
Republicans invited all to join with them solely
on the issue of maintaining the government.
The leaders of the Democratic party appear
determined to war against the Administration
even to the sacrifice of the government. The
people will not go with them, but will stand
by that party and support that ticket which
is pledged Internationally to the maintenance
of the laws and the preservation of the Union.

R%A special dispatch from Cincinnati te
the fremont House says: F"
"Hon Joseph Holt is on his way to Wash
ington, ii is said, to take the place of Gamer
on, Secretary of War"
Mr.. Holt would make an exceedingly able
and popular Secretary of War; but the pres.
ent incumbent has not yet created vacancy
Is there any probability that one will be
made
For the past few weeks, Mr.. Holt has been
delivering bold and strong unconditional
Union speeches to the people of Kentucky
and has powerfully contributed to counteract
the bad effect that the Bulls Run disaster tc
the loyal cause might have on the minds ofthe
people of that State. Holt openly advocated
on the stump the strongest kind of coercion
for rebels. Unconditional submission to the
Constitution and laws was his platform. -

The DEVIL IN THE LIVERY OF HEAvEN.-On
the announcement of the rout of the Federal
Philistines at Bulls Run, the following reso-
luton, offered by holy brother in the Con-
federate Congress at Richmond, was adopted
unanimously
Rssolved, That s0e recognize the hand of
the Most High God and King Of kings, and
Lord of lords, in the glorious victory with
which He hath crowned our army at Manas-
sas; and that the people of the Confederate
States are invited by appropriate services on
the ensuing Sabbath, to offer up their united
thanksgiving and praise for this mighty de-
iverance.
I. This attempting to bribe the Lord reminds
us of another parsonage of ancient recoliec-
ton, although at present actively aiding the
rebels, who invited the Lord up into high
mountain and offered him all the kingdoms Of
the earth.

W@"Government always means coercion
when its lawful authority is resisted, and
those who oppose coercion necessarily oppose
government itself, and deny to it the only
power by which it can be maintained"
This sentence, taken from the patriotic reso-
lutions of the Republican convention of this
State, contains the only true doctrine on the
subject of coercion. It is time to know that
this cry of ''no coercion" is treason; that
government has the right to march its troops
over every foot of these United States. to vim
dicate its authority and restore peace, and
that it will do it in spite of every hostile voice
