A SWORD FOR GEs. HALLEcK.-The ladies Of
81. Louis we're last week, through friendly envoy,
the purchasers OF sword which is to be presented 10
Mai. Gen. Halleck. The makers are Tiffany * Co.,
OF this city, and the beautiful object is well worthy
the reputation of the establishment. The blade is
straight and de.iestely proportoned aud simply but
elegantly ornamentod. The scabbard and hiit.
mountiugs are Of sterling silver, and with the excep-
ton of the grip, which is oxydized, heavily gilded.
Tie only decoration of the seabbard is conventional
use Of The laurel leaf for the bands. The hi is more
profisely ornamenied It, summit is appropriately
occupied by very spirited bust from Crawford
statue Of America. The angry Medusa, never more
happily used, in medallion relief, graces the guard.
The grp IL completely covered with classical orna-
ment in relief the diverse bearing head Of Mars,
within frame Of warlike insignia, and the reverse
figure Of Victory symboIicaly attended. The guard
shell carries fine impression Of the famed naglio,
Hercules conQuering the Nemean Lion. Asswhole,
the sword has fault 10 provoke criticism, while its
chuess Of detail is strictly classical and character
site. Its cost was 800. II was forwarded to st.
Louis on Monday afternoon, and will doubtless soon
be- presented 10 the General.

Tgg HoopEp-SKIRr MANUFACTURES AND The
GoyERSaEsr TAx.-The manufacturers Of hooped
skirts held meeting day or two since, and re-
solved TO rate with the Government against
the heavy tax soon TO be imposed upon them. A
Committee WAS appointed to go to Washington, and
present the renlonst rance 10 the Government. They
rspreeenthat all the material used in the manuiao
,ure Of the hoops is taxed before il into their
hands 80 that the tax direct would be upon the
labor From 900 to 90 600 persons in the city ART
engaged in the hoop-skirt making business, aud the
manufacturers set forth that the tax will reduce the
consumption OF the article, as well as multiply
the number of suall manufacturers who will
make returns for less than the SUN Of $780, and so
eyade the tax. As it is the rate Of taxation upon
these skirts will amount to half the profits made by
heavy houses. One house alone would have 10 pay
the sum of 100000. The question they ask is
whether il it better for the large houses to be taAe'
reasonably, and the Government have the oepen',
or 10 be taxed heavily and the business dsIr'ou''N

what ar. we to do for Guns.

- The President has called for three hundred
thousand additional soldiers. The country is
responding promptly, enlstments are going
rapidly forward, and the men will soon be in
the field. Three hundred thousand guns will
be Immediately required to arm them. Is the
Ordnance Department prepared to meet this
demands Is it prepared TO place in the hands
of each man either Springfield or Enfield
rihed musket, or some other safe and efficient
arm? We all know that sufficient
number of the Springfield and Enfield guns
cannot be had in time, as evidenced by the
fact that considerable part of the force now
in the field is armed with smooth-bored guns.
The Government can produce the Springfield
rifle only at the rate of some 13 900 per month.
Private contractors are not producing a thou
sand a month We doubt, indeed, whether q
thousand guns of the Springfield pattern have
as yet been delivered from all the private ma
nufactories of the country. Where then are
our arms to come from? We should have less
anxiety on this subject if our Ordnance De-
partmeut had heretofore shown efficiency in
the discharge of its duties. Unfortunately our
Chief of Ordnance, we all know, is disposed to
practice cruel and expensive economy, and
pursue sort of hand-to- mouth policy, which,
if it can furnish the supplies needed for to-day,
allows tomorrow to take care of itself.
We fear that unless the Secretary of War
gives the matter his attention, when these men
present themselves for service, it will be dis.
covered that there are no good guns for them
| We are aware that there are in the Arsenal
some 10000 guns. But they are nearly ali
entirely unfit for use, the Chief of Ordnance
himself being judge, they being refused arms
from Austria and Belgium, in the purchase o.
which, as we learn by the report from The
Ordnance Department, recently published, the
Government got badly cheated.

magnanimity OF the United states.

An able article in the Liverpool Posi-, in
reply to Mr.. Spence, who has tried to do so
much to discredit the North abroad, contains
the following passage; a4-L.z
The American government has proved its
capacity to take care of itself, to discomft
those who malign it, to teach the nations of
the world what a united people can accom-
plsh. w hat are the effects of all this . In
the first place, the North has conducted itself
in way that no government ever before did
conduct itself in the face of rebellion. The
executive has sharpeased no are, erected no GAL
Eolcs, eontrived no nesO Instruments of torture
it has not vissted treason With death, naassacTed
prisoners or starved them co'aiscation, except
under conditions not acted upon, has not been
rcsorted to. 1t has done precisely, as nearly as
possible, the reverse of all this. Confident in
its strength, it seeks to reclaim, not punish,
Its example on the world will not be lost; the
lesson It has taught to fine humanity and tTu'
policy iOiu be learned By governments on this
side of tie Atlantic."
