The House resumed tho consideration Of the Tax BILL
The Ho acted all the general provisions, forty tn
number making no important amendments.
Mr.. wrcKIrrE, CUnion) Of KY, offered an amendment
10 exempt slaves from direct taxation, when lands are
taxed and advocated IL by speech .sarr
briee debate followed. during which Mr. Loyuors
(rep OF H. denied that the constitution or our fathers
even recognized property In man, and never would
slavery has no guarantee In the contribution, which
it had been honestly administered, would have dest Dyed
slavery long ago.
Mr. WrcxIIrE said he had been informed that M.
IoysIeanEhad recently made similar speech before

Mr. LoyEJoY said II was likely. He had attended two
and ho believed the slave had as much right
10 own master the master 70 own him; ~ much
right 10 whip and sell the master as the master 70 whip
and sell him.
Mr.. WlcKIrrE argued to show that government %
numerous ins has recognized slaves property
Mr. wicklile's amendment was rejected.
The House next proceeded to the consideration o n

The CLAxoR AGAINST THE TAX BnL.--we'
observe that all the small fry traders in the
country are sending deputations to Washing
ton to obtain notifications Of the new Tax bill
in favor of their own particular interests. Hat
tiers, cappers and billiard markers; brewers,
paper makers and dog fanciers; auctioneers,
hotel keepers and carriage makers, have each
their grievance TO lay before the committee,
and they swarm like office seekers about the
capital. The abolition newspapers join in
great howl on their own account, and very
soon we sha, expect to find all the tinkers and
tailors in the country joining in the dance TO
Washington. There is really no occasion for
all this excitement; but, in order to put stop
to it, the best thing for Congress to do Is to
pass the bill at once. We are quite willing to
pay our share If the complaints of all were
acted upon we should have no tax bill what
ever. Every one who goes to Washington to
state his particular grievance ought to be sent
to The old Capitol jail a. an enemy Of the coun-
try. There 10 plenty Of room there now,

A WINNING CAUSE GOoD ONE.-The victory
at Fort Donelson seems to have made sensible
impression even upon the most violent of the
secessionist sympathizers at the other side.
The very pains which the London Times takes
to explain away its Importance shows that it
has already produced good fruits. The best
proof of its beneficial effects is the FLIP that it
has given to American securities. When the
news of the rapid succession of brilliant Union
victories that has since taken place reaches
Liverpool, the revolution in public opinion, as
to the prospect of the speedy reconstruction
of the Union, will be complete. We are anxious
to see how the London Times will seek to ex-
plain away its ferocious hostility and Its pre-
dictions OF ruin, financial as well as political,
to tho North. A winning cause is generally a
good one, and we expect that our London con-
temporary will not be long in recognizing the
value of the axiom in our regard.

and beg Of him to cease his insidious attacks
upon the ex-Pathfinder and present King of the
Mountains! These attacks began by the unau-
thorized publication of the stolen report of
General Thomas, and even to this very day
Greeley continues to dish up that report in
numerous editorials, with the obvious intent
and certain result of disgracing Fremont in the
opinion Of the nation Has General Fremont
