The bitter classes here. except perhaps In

find one intelligent, educated man on our
side, you will find fifty against us. know
no reason for blinking such facts, or for ex-

TAX ON GOVERNMENT SALAR1Es.-The
following clause is retained in the Tax
Bill -
"On and after the first day Of May
next, there shall be levied, collected, and
paid on all salaries of officers, or pay
ments to persons in the civil, military,
naval or other employment of service OF
the United States, including Senators,
members of Congress, when exceeding
the rate of 5000, duty of three pei
cent. on the excess above the said $500
and it shall De the duty of all paymasters
and all disbursing officers under the Gov
eminent of the United States, or in the
employ thereof, when making any pay
ments to the officers and persons, as afore-
said, or upon settling and adjusting the
accounts of such officers and persons, to
deduct and withhold the aforesaid duty of
three per. cent"
If this becomes law, each member of
Congress will have s72 deducted from
his per annum pay of $4,000. He will,
however, be subjected to the income tax
common with all others.

THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL 10.


The rebel leaders always had as low
an opinion of the white laborers OF the
country as they had Of their slaves.
They commonly style them "white
trash" the "mudsills of society" &c,
&c. The estimation in which they held
them before the war against the Union,
does not appear to have changed materially
for the better. Especially do they eVlnce
their hatred of the foreign-born popula-
ton in their midst. They have shut up
the heroic Corcoran in felon's cell at
Richmond after agreeing to his release
and receiving the equivalent They muir

cious of all, they have slain forty oil
fifty Irishmen, who at Winchester re-
fused to fire upon the flag they loved
the old flag of the Union.
The cause for this hostility is apparen
enough. The fact has but one solution
It is, says the Troy Times, because intel
ligent foreigners, North and South, know
that the pretensions which lie at the ioun
dalton of rebellion, are precisely simila

HgRMoNT.--A San Francisco paper sums
up Gen. Fremont as follows:
"He was a statesman--who had never
made a speech a General-who had never
won battle Patb6nder-who had al
ways missed the track and Millionaire
not worth continental d-n.
But now he is Major General, with a
little strip of land in the shape OF a triangle,
$50 miles from point TO point, where he can
guard the ground that Rosencranz has
Won"
We IND the above copied approvingly in
the Courier. We know il is too prevalent
idea in America that no one can be states
man unless he can make buncombe'
speech. Gen. jackson had neither gift nor
2enchGnt for speech-making and yet the
Courier would not deny that he was states
man. II, as General, he has never won a
battle, the fault hasn't been his, for he was re-
moved on the eve of an impending brilliant
snd triumphant engagement with the rebel
forces On the other hand, he is General
who has never LOST a battle, and, moreover,
is a Gen raj who will before the close Of the
war win many, and cover himself with i'm
perishable renown upon the field of strife
with the foes. of our Government. AS a
Pathfinder, he neuer missed the track.
and is without peer As a Millionaire,
he has been profuse and liberal to the coun-
try OF his love, He is an object of hate and
calu,nny only among the secessionists of the
South, and their former political allies in the
North. And they will have occasion to hate
him more intensely as he pushes his victorious
columns into the heart of rebeldom.

THE LEGAL TENDER NOTES. The
first batch of the new legal tender Notes
were received in New York on Saturday.
The amount was $4,000 900, and they
were sent to the Assistant U. s. Treas
urer. The Commercial says: With
the exception of four thousand dollars in
tens, they are all of the denomination Of
one thousand dollars. The notes in APP
pearance are an improvement upon the
former issue. The paper appears to be
of a better quality, and the general style
is lighter, The vignette is an excellent
medallion portrait of Robert Morris. The
seal of the United States impressed on
the face, is in red, and small, about the
size of a ten cent piece. The tint, as in
the other notes, is green, but the back
plate is lighter in the center, by the in
sertion of the inscription relative to th'
notes being a legal tender, The recep
ton of the notes is hailed here with much
satisfaction, as it relieves the government
from any embarrassment arising from
the temporary want of funds for carrying
on its operations"
