NATIONAL TAxEs.-The committee
Of ways and means, in the national
House Of Representatives, have deter
mined on reporting bill for raising
$3.50, 100000 by direct taxation, in
order to pay the interest on the nation
al debt, and the ordinary expenses OF
the government. lndiana's proper
ton Of this amount will be about SS,-
100000, or about twice the amount
now raised in the State for oil pur'
poses. This will increase our taxe'
for next year to about three times q
much as at present, with the natiena
tax for the present year, nearly anoth
er million, which Gcv. Morton, b.
some we fear not very honorable trick
cry, has postponed year, to b adds'
on to it. Many Of our people will no
be able to pay this tax, but will cheer
fully sacrifice everything, if by 90 do
ing they can restore the Union to it
former condition. We hope that non
efour wealthy Republicans will grum
bic when this tax comes upon them
but will remember that we faithful
warned them that such would be tn
