Tax on Newspapers.

Ono Of the most fragrant acts OF injustice yet
mooted in Congress is one to impose stamp du-
ty on newspapers for the purpose Of raising
revenue. This scheme couiG, with rrarriety,
lave originated with the notorious traitor
Henry \. Wise, who boosted that in his be-
loved Accom2c, there was neither printing
press nor school house, hut with whom
such an idea colll originate, among those
now remaining on the patriotic side Of the
country, it is difficult to imagine 1t is an
outrageous measure and worthy the ingenu-
ity Of an enemy OF his race Such a meas
urc would crush out every newspaper not
owned by heavy capitalists. increase its
price, thereby cheating the people out Of
their reading, or suRjeciins them to fay an
enormous price for what has become ne.
cesSity. 1t Is creating a tax on knowledge,
an attempt to crush out business IN the
land, which has done and is now doing more
gratuitous l.hor to assist the Government,
ten fold over, than any other business inter
est in the country. As a sample, though a
small one, Of what the country press has al
ready done. we remark that in this Office,
during the past ten months, we have paid by
the way of gratuitous advertising and print,
ing, more than three dollars to every hun
dred subscribers on our books Now the
press asks no exemption, no privileges. but
at the same time it will demand fair play

as any other property, and the income de-
rived from the business, if nee ssary, but do

this rebellion, whoever thinks OF conqnerlnS
the rebels in arms, by soft blows and honlcd
phrases, has no adequate conception OF the
nature OF the contest. or Of the Southern char

arms and give up his rebellion until he has
been thoroughly beaten in battle. lie Will

over us. The sword can do every thing
Upon that suspends our fate. With bold

capture and occupation Of few prominent

Now, it is good policy, We believe, in lay-

The Militia.

We 10 not know what the legislature in
tends to do, to revive the militia OF this state,
but there can BE- no doubt but some kind OF
a militia law will be passed during this scs-
sion. We think most any kind of law
would be popular just now, because the idea
is pretty we'll fixed in the public mind, that
it is matter of necessity. The ilea that
the grand mellenium was quite at hand, and
that the human race had attained that high
state of perfection which would do away
with all wars and strife, rendered the duty
of attending to military education, a mat
ter Of no sort of use whatever. W hat is
the use of training said the citizen, Z" we
shall have no more wars" How fallacious
and short sighted was this common opinion.
Yet who of us did not indulge in this idea
Now, the prevalent opinion, is that the best
way to keep peace, is to be prepared f2y war
and almost every man, certainly every able
bodied and patriotic citizen, is willing to
shoulder his musket and learn the art Of
war. But to saddle the state with large
annual expense to keep up the militia, per-
haPs, would not be good policy. We believe
there is patriotism enough in the people to
keep alive well organized and well drilled
militia, without pay. Let it be work Of
patriotism, labor of love, a duty to the
country, which shall be performed with
alacrity. If there shall not be too MANY ex-
emp,ions, the old fashioned trainings will be-
come more popular than ever and the title
of all officers in the local militia will be re-
spectcd again.
But we believe that a step forward should
be taken, to introduce military drill in our
public schools. IL this shall be done our
schools will turn out more scholars, with
good healthy constitutions, and less consump-
tiycs, than now.
Something should be also done to educate
those having natural aptitude for military
affairs, so that if War should be the alterna-
tive submitted to us, that we can have capa-
bic officers. This want is just what has
parllyzed the efforts Of the Union forces
The West Point school has net been 50 much
a school to educate this class, as it has been
an asylum for those SONS of the wealthy, who
had no aptitude for any one thing in rartic-
ular, We wish the National Congress would
appropriate 50 900 to each State to be cx-
pended under state authority, for tie mill.

the profession of arms. There should be
