GaN. DENvER-This gentleman has writ
ten letter to this State, in which he says:
Before the end Of The present year the
interest on the National Debt alone will be
very little, if anything, short of fifty millions
The necessary expenses aside from the army,
will he as much more. These must be met
by duties on Imports by direct taxation and
the thousand other modes resorted to in
Europe, but never before known in this coun-
try, to squeeze money out of the people,
From present appearances we are to be as
taX-ridden a people as the subjects of Great
Britain. If we succeed in getting cut Of
our present difficulties, indeed, with as much
freedom as is enjoyed by English subjects,
we may deem ourselves happy. On every
side disasters stares US in the face-a most
formidable rebellion, an Executive usu"pa'
ton of power, a vena and subservient Con-
gress, bankrupt Treasury, an enormous
debt, pecuniary ruin among the people, and
great danger of the free Government given
us by our fathers being turned into mill
iary despotism.

WHAT AN .tRGUMENr--When Democrats charge
upon the Black Republican Administration the
reckless and tyrannicll violation Of The Consitu-
ton and laws OF the United States. the opposition
do not pretend to deny the fact but answer that
similar violations take place daily in the seeded
States The latter States distinctly Ignore within
their own borders the existence and forge Of our
Constitution, laws and Government. while the
former declare they arc engaged in struggle to
maintain them in their pristine purity. It is in
effect saying, that because eleven States openly
rcpudate. thos, who pretend to administer the
law in the remainder may do the same thing by
subteriugc and craft.

CRYING Wolf.

The Black Republicans not finding the
water quite muddy enough for them to pul-
pie in, are raising the cry of civil war, that
timid persons may be frightened into a sup
port Of their ticket, believing that they are
supporting government and good order. If
the people wish good order and correct gov
eminent, they will not elect republicans, for
that party has produced nothing but confu-
sion and disorder since the 4th of March
last. 1.-THE people would have economy in
government they must select some other
agency, for everybody including the members
of that party, admit that swndIing and cor
ruption has marked all their monied trans
actions. Under them, prosperity has given
place to disaster-peace and plenty, to war
and famine-fraternal affection. to demoniac
hatred-the mild sway of the civil law has
been crushed out by the iron heel of the
mllitary-and everywhere good governm mt
to bad. Yea. so on with your cry of ''wolf, "
"wolf,"-the people know you.

Hey@ The San Francisco Times, the late

absolutely childish. y :: = A reaction

The foresight and energy Of tho President
and Secretary Of War have ayerted the i'm

The palpabe absurity of Gen. SCOTS plans
will speedily become universally evident.

accounted worth very little, bnt it is that

Why the War should Cease.

lst Because it is by no means probable
that the North can conquer the South
2nd. Because in the attempt to do so, we
shall bankrupt the North, overburthen its
people and government with slavish debt,
break up our commerce, destroy our manu-
featuring interests, and fill the land with the
wall of widows and orphans.
3rd. Because if we had the South conquer
ed and at our feet tomorrow, we would be
forced to maintain them as conquered prov
inces, and at an expense as great as the
present war is now costing us, and be at all
times liable to a revolt, that would for the
time being double it.
4th Because the only effect in any posi-
bic event of the continuance of tile war, at
all desired by any portion of the people of
the North, is to work the abolition of sla-
very, and the Africanizing of the entire South
and North both.
9Th. Because this Union was not formed
by force, but through fraternal feeling-ap-
peals to the sober Judgment, aud to sense
Of mutual security, because it cannot be
saved or reconstructed by force, but if at al
by adopting the same course as was pursue,
in organizing it originally.
9th. Because it is better to have peace OF
honorable terms, than armed ruffianism will
all the attendant misfortunes and horrors 0
civil war.

PoRrENrIoUS. THE .4ita, inc0mmcntng upon
the prospect of the election of Mcconnell says:
''If by the division Of the Union men the Seces-
sion ticket should triumph on the first Wednesday
in September, civil war will be inaugurated in the
Golden State" The Bulletin, Htraid, and other
war sheets sound the same alarm bell. Fitch the
spokesman or the Repairs declares the time is
near when the line of argument will change. and
halters be substituted for words. Why will these
mistortunes beiall the country? The election Of
Mcconnell will not in itself afford a cause for
them. and vet we are told it will inaugurate civil
war. Do these men mean to resist the constitu-
tiQna action at the ballotbox? are we to have the
bu let instead of the ballot?--civil war can come
in no other way. Has Gen. Sumner received his
orders to establish military sway here, in the
event of the people choosing Mr.. Mcconnell?
is it to aid in this wickedness they are calling
upon their partizans to arm against their neigh
bors? These threats are not entirely meaningless
these men mediate some outrage that they
know will arouse the souls Of men to action-else
why these threats Citizeps be actlve-be true to
your country and your rights at the polls, and the
ballot will save MS from the bullet
