THE DEMANDS OF SLAVERY.

The House yesterday, BY vote Of II to
Ea, decided that it would not be II constitu-
tional y 10 impose a tax of two dollars a
head on slaves Mr. Blair Of Missouri i'll
Produced the proposition, and Mr: Wick
life and his Kentucky fellows opposed it;
and between those who love slavery and
those who hate il 50 bad that they would
not, recognize its existence even by taa,
the proposition failed Nj. Wick1if1e, who
is always On the floor when slavery is about
to lie touched, contended that the tax was
unconstitutional because unequal, not
being applicable alike in all the
States. But il seems 10 have been
forgotten that in the slave States them
sclves-at least in Virginia and North Car
clina-the Shareholders have demanded
and obtained exemption Of tax on theil
peculiar property, not because it was moi
the cause Of tax in others, but because they
had rather others should pay the tax. Ani
Sc, in this instance, slavery, whiel, has en-
tailed the cost Of war, pays no part Of it
burdens. We shall begin to appreciate
the Institution by and by-espccially whe'
the axEatherer comes around.

compromise. The Moa7liny Rst treats it as

engaged in q struggle which, if continued,

GENERAL GRANTS C0LETIN

We are not at liberty to giiyeour readers
any definite information in relation to Gen
Grants position or the strength Of his col
umn on the Tennessee. They must, for q
few days, remain content with the assur-
ance that he is thought to be in no danger,
and that when the expected battle comes
of, be will he sure to conquer q victory.
We regret to hear that there is good deal
OF sickness in his camp-the effect Of the
wafer Of the country and the usual expos
tire Of the men in the wet weather that
they have encountered The cases in the
hospital are usually mild, and yield readily
TO treatment; but they are far greater in
number than we could wish When q
fight may be expected we cannot say, as SC
much depends upon the willingness Of ths
enemy; Int if the rebels make q stand al
all they will be soon overcome.

FROM FORTRESS MONROE.
What The Rebels Think Of: 0ur.
Movements.
1A1Kkll eahmAxps the MERRlalAc..

FORTRESS MONROE, april 3-There appears
to be but little doubt that a1l our movements
here are faithfully reported to the rebel
-utberities:
The Richmond DispatcA Of yesterday norn-
ing says the grand army Of the Federals seems
to have been transferred from the neighbor-
hood of Washington to the peninsula, which
they hare probably concluded to be shorter
and easier route to Richmond than that via
Manassas, which we have courteous1y placed
at their disposal. The Dispatch also states the
roads there are as bad as those on the Poto-
mac, and refers to Gen. Magrudcr as man not
likely to be caught mapping.
: There was q Tumor in Richmond Yesterday
that severe fight had taken place on the Pc
ninsula. It.was probably caused By the fact
Of our making strong reconnaissance toward
Yorktown on Saturday.
4 dispatch from Augusta, Ga, dated March
3lst, says the Charleston papers Of to-day
contain q dispatch dated New Orleans, March
Goth, stating that two Federal gunboats, on
the 29th commenced m attack on Fort Jack
son, at the mouth Of the Mi5sississippi. Up
to that time nobody hatl'been hurt.
FORTRESS MONROE, April 4.-Nothing OF
special interest that can be published has
transpired to-day. The weather is bright aud
very warm. There is great activity in military
MATTERS, and Important news Is anticipated.
NEW YORK, April 4-An Old Point letter to
the World says: "Commo1ore Tatnal has
beea assigned to the command Of The Aer'
flMae."

REPUBLICAN CONTENTION.

We publish this morning the call for d
Republican Delegate Convention to be held
On Friday Of next week, for the nouina-
lion Of municipal candidates, with the ap-
poi0tmcnts Of ward elections to be held on
the DAY preceding. This is the first call in
The field, but the next ten days will witness
the awakening Of contest which, though
il may not equal some Of its predecessors
in pa1tizan importance, will be not the less
:mror1ant to The interests Of both
city and State Our people have
talked about candidates in a pros
pectiye sense. They may now can
1ass the matter in earnest Those who
prefer that this April election, in the city
1uade historical by the Chicago platform
should lie an endorsement Of Abrahan
Lincoln and Of his emancipation message
than that it should be promise in advance
for the SUCCESS Of the Egyptian Constitution
will appreciate the terms upon which th
above call has been based It is sufficient.
broad for all p.triots to stand upon, bu
will not admit Of carrying the Egyptian in

not become involved With the other.
