A Letter from Secretary Stanton.

To the Editor of the n. Y. Tribune:
SIR--I cannot suffer undue meri. to be
ascribed to my official action. The glo-
ry of our recent victories belongs to the
gallant officers and soldiers that fought
the battles. No share of it belongs to
me.
Much has been said Of military comb.
nations and organizing victory. 1 hear
such phrases with apprepenson. They
commenc ed in infidel France with the
Italian campaign. and resulted in Water
loo. Who can organize victory? Who
can combine the elements Of success on
the battle field? We owe our recent vic
tories to the spirit Of the Lord. that NOV.
ed our soldiers to rush into battle, and fill
ed the hearts Of our enemies with terror
and dismay. The inspiration that con-
quered in battle was in the hearts of the
soldiers and from on high and wherever
there is the same inspiration there will be
the same results. Patriotic spirit, with
resolu,e courage in officers and mon, is a
military combination that never failed.
We may we'll rejoice at the recen: vic
tories. for they teach us that battles are
to be won now and By us in the same and
only manner that they were ever won by
any people or in any age since the days
of Joshua. by boldly pursuing and stri-
king the foe. What. under the blessing
Of Providence, l conceive 20 be the true
organization of victory and military COM
bisation to end this war was declared in a
few words by Gen. Grants message to
Gen. Buckper--"I propose 10 more imme-
diately on your arorks."
Yours. truly.

Abolition Treason Manifcsting IL
self Unmarked.

We have repeatedly and Oft told our
readers that Abolitionism was treason.

In addition 10 the many evidences addu-
ced by us from time to time in support Of
this allegiance. we produce An editorial
article from the New York Tribune of The
36th ult.. which leaves no responsible
loom for duubt on The question involved.
so far as the Tribune is regarded as an
organ of Aboli.ionism.
Here is the article. We ask for it dis
passionate perusal:
"Speakirg for ourselves, we can hon
estly say that for that old Union which
was kept In existence By southern menan-
ces and northern concessions, we have no
regrets and no wish for its reconstruction.

dence than the foregoing that Aholiuonists
do not want the Union as il existed to be
restored, then no proof can convince them
What Abolilienisis desire is the abolish
ment of slavery. not the restoration Of the
seeded States TO the Union. not the pres
ervation of our present Constitution, but
the substitution thereof Of Sewardism as

as manifested IN his higher law practice.

Go out, reader. among your republican
acqualntances. male or female. in any city.
town or neighborhood in Ohio; tell them
that you are for the Constitution and the
Onion, and. if they suspect you of Demo
cratic tendencies, the question will be in
stantly pat: Do you prefer slavery to
the Union !" If you allege that there is
40 such Issue before the country. and an.
swef their question, Yankee like, by pro-
pounding another. namely: Do you prefer
the abolition Of slavery TO the ULion %
you will be answered by a toss of the head
aud an Indignant frown II slavery must
be preserved. let the Union go to grass
Ii you affirm that you would preserve
slavery only so far as 1t is guaranteed by
the Constitution, you will be met by this
or a similar rebuff a Constitution
which guarantees slavery is no. worth
preserving.
We Go not exaggerae Every man can
readily test the truth Of what we assert
This anti Union--anti. Constitution radi
calism is rife in the Republican party--so
wide spread. active and controlling is it.
that even the more sta,d and conservative
portion OF the party are SO infested By it.
that no Republican man or journal. with
here and there an honorable exception.
dare oppose its bold disunion assumptions,
save in half-earnest. milk and water
way.
Not long since. these Self same radicals
we're vociferous in their shouts for the
Union and unrelentng in stigmatizing
every man who counseled moderation and
forbearance, as a secessionist. Now, they
declare they would not consent to resto-
ration of the Union as it was year ago,
with slavery In it. They are doing all tn y
can to discourage and prevent such resto-
ration by saying tha, unless slavery is
abolished by the act of Congress or the
Federal Government. the rebellion can
never be put down. or as Greeley in his
Tribune words it--tha, we can never con-
quer twelve millions Of Souiherners. but
that with the aid of four million blacks.
we may be able TO overcome eight millions
Of whites.
1t is not necessary TO expose the fals,y
or the REASONABLE character of these as.
sumptions. We believe the mass Of the
people will not be lnised by them. They
will soon come TO regard, as they are al
ready beginning to do. every one who de-
rides the Union our fathers made or
spurns allegiance to the Constitution they
formed. as a secessionst AMI traitor =

PLYMOUTH INDIANA, THURSDAY FEBRUARY 81, 1862.

have obtained all the vessels at the price
he did. less the two and half per cent.
Who doubts it? Why should not the
sellers as readily have given the two and a
half per cent. to the Government as to Mr.
Morgan? No. sir; that fallacy may suit
the Secretary, but it will not deceive the
people. In September last, when Mr..
Morgan had made over $4,000, repre-
sentation was made TO the Cabinet in ie-
regard TO this matter, and the attention
the Secretary directed to it. Had he
changed the policy, no censure could have
been charged upon him; but he persistent
ly refused, and in December Mr.. Morgan
had increased his fortunes to the enormous
sum of about S9O,O0O--at the rate of a
quarter of million per annum. Mr..
Morgan's service could have been secured
at $4,000 annually and this enormous sum
saved to the treasury; but if this be not SO
and men owning vessels have been COM
pelled or induced to sell them at small
prices. what right has the Secretary to
allow his brother in-law to pus h;s hands
in the pocket of each seller and realize the
immense sum Of 800, 900 in fsw months?
That money really belonged to the Gov
ernment. As an agent he takes it; and if
it be an unconscionable amount it belongs
to his employers. The Secretary should
know that the rules of the Chamber Of
Commerce in New York. as to commits
sions, do not apply where the value of the
vessel exceeds $50, 600; beyond that sum
the Fer centage is left to bargain between
seller and broker. Can the Secretary find
solitary case where merchants have al
lowed two and a-half per cent. on vessel
worth 100000? The rule in Boston is
one PEI cent, when the value is over $780,
600.

HoN. Hamilton Fish of New York, gen
tleman of high responsibility and attanments,
long noted for the conservatism of his views,
addressed most vigorous letter to the Wads-
worth ratification meeting at Cooper Institute,
in which the following language occurred.
Mr.. Fish says 1t is wastetul exhaustion
of the means and power of the nation, wick
ed oppression upon the citizens, and cruelty to
all, to tamper with the stern realities that are
upon us, and to talk Peace peace when
there is no peace No, we have to conquer.
peace-we cannot buy it, and if we could
II would be valueless, as it would be disgrace
full" This doctrine is directly opposed to the
principles enunciated by Gen. James Whit
ney,-the principal orator at the late demo-
cratic convention,-the only man on that oc-
casion who did not in his speech treat eXclu-
slvely OF the immense labor performed by the
democrats in organizing the peoples move
ment Mr.. Whitney distinctly advoca-
ted scheme of compromise and sub
mission which, in the language of Mr..
Fish, is tampering with the stern re-
alties that upon US. Mr.. Whitney,
like John Van Buren,, Seymour, Vallan-
digham, and Petit, wishes to have the gov
eminent bend its neck to an outrageous rebel
lion. He would allow traitors, usurpers, and
robbers, to dictate the terms of compromise
or SUBMISSION to the outraged government.
How perfect is the harmony OF sentiment and
views, on the part of the leaders who are now
arranging their forces in factiOus array
against the president and those measures
which he deems Indispensable to the integrity
Of the Union Seymour in New York, Val
landigham in Ohio, Buchanan in Pennsylva-
MIA, and Whitney in Massachusetts, are stand
ing shoulder to shoulder in this work of ere
ating an organized opposition to the govern
ment, in the hour OF its imminent peril. Gen
Whitney is an avowed champion of the Faneu-
il Hall nominees. His advocacy of that ticket
arises from the fact that it practically repre-
SCENTS his political convictions, and if success
tui will elate his brother submissionists in
other states. But the men of Massachusetts
are not to be deceived by false lights and
treacherous guides. They will endorse the
manly sentiment of Hamilton Fish, and at
the polls pronounce the stern yerdict-No
compromise with traitors.

Errom the bloomington lml rantagraph. !

GEN. MCCLELLAN.-The pretended friends
of this eminent soldier have tried hard to make
rebel OF him; but with poor success. For
more than a month, he has been acting on the
very doctrine which Gen. Hunter was snub-
bed for proclaiming little too soon, viz that
" slavery and martial law are incompatible -
On the 9th Of August, Gen. Mcclellan issued
an order Ono. l54) in which the following is
part:
Sin protecting private property, no refer
ence Is intended to persons held to service or
labor by reason of African descent: Such
persons will be regarded by this army as they
have been heretofore, as occupying simply a
peculiar legal status under state laws, which
condition the military authorities of the Unit
ed States are not required to regard at all in dis
trlcts where military operations are made nee
essary by the rebellious action of state gov
ernment.s"
And here is another proof
st is a matter Of history that the bill for
the abolition Of slavery in the District of Co.
lumbia was drawn up by judge Keys of Gin
cinnati, a lifelong democrat, a member of
Gen. McClellans staff, and that the bill passed
substantially as it was drawn up. 1t was APP
proved by Gen Mcclellan

The Tax ON Iron Castings.

The decision Of the Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue in regard to taxing iron cast
ings was telegraphed from Washington very
imperfrctly, some days since. The following
letter of the commissioner corrects the most
important error of the telegraph, and gives
construction Of the law that will be much more
satisfactory to those Immediately concerned:
OFFICE OF INTERNAL REVENUE, WASHING
TON, Oct. 20, 1SG2.-Sir: Your letter of the
18th inst, enclosing petition, and making in
quirieS concerning the liability Of iron cast
ings to taxation under the tax law, has been
received.
First. l am of opinion that all castings
which are so well known and so generally
used as to have commercial value must be
taxed as manufacturers when sold or remoy-
ed from the place Of manufacture.
Second. Other castings, made upon special
order of a machinist, but which are not known
to the trade as manufactures in themselves,
and are designed for articles subject to taxa
ton in an advanced state, are exempt not
being manufactures within the contemplation
of the law. 1t may be difficult to draw the
line, the assessor, or assistant assessors, best
judgment will be required. | should as an
example, say that car wheels belong to the
first class. Very respectfully,
GEO. S. boutwell,, Commissioner.

SENATOR SUMNER IN LowELL.-Charles
Sumner addressed the citizens of Lowell,
Wednesday evening. The Citizen says of the
gathering, the ''oldest inhabtant" probably
cannot remember such rush of people as
was attracted to Huntington Hall. The hall
was packed an hour before the time an
nounced, and when ingress became impossi-
bic, the passages were filled, and the disap-
pointed mass reached down the stairways and
beyond the outer doors. The Citizen adds ::
Perhaps the most striking feature of the
evening was the comment made by the speak
er upon one Of the Faneuil Hall resolutions
which implicitly censured the Massachusetts,
senators for want of due attention to state in
terests. This was squarely met by the pro-
duction of Hon. Linus Child who spent the
past winter in Washington, as the agent of the
New England manufacturers In his note
Mr. Child complmented both senators very
handsomely for their yigilant regard for the
manufacturing interest"

From Sutton-B. f. Dillabar.

The FIRE DEPARTMENr-The annual pa
rade and drill of the Worcester fire depart
ment took place on Wednesday, under the di-
rection of Mr.. Alzirus Brown, chief engineer.
The route Of procession was through all the
principal streets, some of which were lined
with spectators, and in all of which the fire.
men presented the same orderly and every
way admirable appearance. The high wind
in the afternoon intertered to some extent
with the playing, yet the contest was spirited,
and the results in all respects satisfactory.
The fire department of Worcester, though it
has lost many of its best and most useful
members by the necessities and casualties of
war; is still IN prime condition, of which all
citizens, and especially property holders,
have good reason to be proud.
