The National FInances-The Now Era of
Taxation.


The passage of the Treasury note Bill is to
be followed, we learn, by comprehensive
system Of taxation to provide not only for
the payment of the notes issued, but an sde.
quate system of finance to meet what must
be the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT expenditures of
Government for some time to come, at least,
on peace footing. Were the rebellion sub
dued to. morrow, these expenditures must
equal twice and perhaps thrice the average
for years past. We shall do we'll if we get
on with S2O0,000,00O annually. We must
which costs 81 900 year for each man, rank
and file. We shall not hereafter be content
without powerful navy. We are torender
impregnable, if possible, all our important
harboTs. The civil list grows apace with our
increasing years. We shall have on the 1st
of July next an annual interest account of
$40,000,000 For the present, consequently,
we must bid adieu to the golden era in our
history in which we were scarcely conscious
that we had a Government so lightly did its
burdens rest upon Us, and enter upon that in
which the almost sole problem of states
man will be to make the credit balance the
debit side Of the national ledger.
AS our wants augment, our revenues from
ordinary sources have fallen, unfortunately,
to one.half their usual average. These are
to be increased by the heavy duties recently
levied upou tea, coffee and sugar. From
January to January the past year, we pre-
sumo the revenues from imports, excluding
tea and coffee, which were transferred from
the free list in July, fell short of $50, OOO, OOO
The duties levied upon these, with the in
crease upon other articles may raise the
amount to be realized in 1862, to $50, OOO, 900.
This is, probably large estimate. All be-
yond must be provided by internal taxes,
known as excise, income and property taxes,
licenses stamps, &C., &C., none of which were
levied in this country for more than gen.
Grafton, while some of them are entirely
novel. How to levy these taxes so as to
produce the largest amount of revenue in q
manner least burdensome or injurious to the
payer, is the great question before US, and
must continue to be the all-absorbing one in
the national councils for many years to come

DECENTRALIZATION OF REBELs.-The Rich
mond Examiner, of the I'd, says that the
present condition of the rebel army is a
cause of severe and painful anxiety. 1t
boasts that their courage is not abated, and
their eagerness for the fray not relaxed, but
that decentralization is creeping in from the
insane and reckless neglect of the Confed-
crate Government to sustain and cultivate
the spirit of the soldiers. The charges al
legged are drunkenness among the officers on
the Potomac, and vacant idling among the
men, and the abandonment of regimental
drills.
Regarding bonuses for substitutes, the En-
dnliner says, as high as two hundred and
fifty dollars have been paid to substitutes by
privates wishing to leave the ranks. 1t also
says that "Richmond is filled with soldiers
who have come out of the hospitals, or who
have got here on some pretense or other, ap-
plying for discharges, and striving and wrig-
Cling in all sorts of ways to get out of the
army. 1t was but few days ago that a
soldier, discharged from one Of the hospitals
here, committed suicide rather than be con-
strained to remain in the army. The au-
thorities at Richmond may assure themselves
that, as long as the health of the army is
neglected, and it is maintained in its dirty,
sluggard condition, the drills neglected, the
half rations of commissaries winBed at, the
rowdyism OF officers passed over, and the
vacancy and idleness of "a defensive policy
held out as rewards to volunteering, the
army will not be filled and replenished bu
from few classes of our people"

THE NATIONAL DEBT.-War is an expen-
sive luxury or necessity, as you may wish
to designate it. An inevitable consequence
of the efforts that are being made by the
Government of the United States to sup
press rebellion, and restore the integrity of
the Union, will be the expenditure ofmoney,
on a scale hitherto unknown on the Ameri-
can Continent, and having but one or two
parallels in the history of Europe. Nearly
seven hundred thousand troops have been
enrolled in the service of the country; it is
not impossible that this number may be
doubled; the navy must be greatly in
creased every species of mGterieL Of war
must be provided in the greatest abun-
dance, and an annual outlay may be ex-
pected of between three and four hundred
millions of dollars. Should three or four
years be required to reduce the Seeded
States to submission, public debt win have
been incurred of between twelve and fifteen
hundred millions, and the future Of the ma
ton will have been literally mortgaged, to
provide for the wants Of the present time

AstrOng Appeal In ENGLAND for Peace with
the United States.

The Rev. Mr.. SpurgeOn, the eloquent
preacher of London, has made a strong ap-
peal, in his sermon of December 8, for peace
between England and the United States
After eulogizing the peace maker, he says
So he putteth his back against the eur
rent, and when he heareth everywhere the
noise of war, ana seeth many that are hot
for it, he doth his best to administer cool
ing draught, and he saith, "Be patient; let
it alone; if the thing be an evil, yet war is
worse than any other evil. There was never
q bad peace yet, and never good war;"
saith he, sand whatever loss we may sus-
tain by being too quiet, we shall certainly
lose hundred times as much by being too
fierce" And then in the present case he
thinketh how ill it would be for two Chris
tan nations to go to war-two nations
sprung of the same blood-two countries
which really have closer relation than any
other two countries upon the face of the
earth-riyals in their liberal institutions
coadjutors in propagating the Gospel OF
Christ-two nations that have within their
midst more Of the elect of God and more o.
the true followers of Christ than any other
nations under heaven. Yea, he thinkett
within himself, it were i'll that the bones o.
our sons and daughters should go again tc
make manure for our fields, as they have
done. He remembered that the farmers Of
Yorkshire brought home the mold from
Waterloo with which to manure their OWL
fields, the blood and bones Of their sons and
daughters; and he thinketh it not meet thai
the prairies of America should be enriched
with the blood and bones of his children
and, on the other hand, he thinketh that hi
would not smite another man, but woult
sooner be smitten of him, and that blooC
would be to him an awful sight. So ht
saith, "What would not do myself, Iwoul(
not have others do for me, and if would
not be killer, neither would | have Others
killed for me-" He walketh in vision ovel
q field of battle; he heareth the shrieks o
the dying and the groans of the wounded
he knows that even conquerors themselves
have said that all the enthusiasm Of victory
has not been able to remove the horror o
the dreadful scene after the tigL+ and so h
saith, "Nsy, peace, peaceP

ICONMUNICATED.I
CANT JOHN MCLEAN, January

OAAP JOHN MCIEAN, January D.
EDITOR PREss-Sir In your issue of the
7th inst. observed an article respecting the
death of Sergeant of my company, named
Jackson, which, from first to last, contains
not one particle of truth, excepting that
jackson was killed by Jacobs. Believing
you have been misinformed, will endeavor
to correct said report for the benefit Of your
self and readers.
In the first place, would state that SOL
diers belonging to my company or the regi-
ment, are not in the habit of stampeding
over the lines from Camp John Mclean;
that strict discipline is maintained in said
camp, and that the men comprising the Sew
enty. fifth have left their homes and families
with nobler motives than to conduct them
selves in such a manner as to be called row.
dies, even by the editor of the Press. Ser
geant Jackson and private McNelis (who
was near him when shot) were granted
leave of absence, and instead of "a party of
soldiers making descent on the house of
Peter Jacobs" the above named men were,
believe, the only two soldiers in the town
of Reading at that hour, and Jackson (the
deceased) knocked at the door of Jacobs,
whom, upon opening it, he asked for some.
thing to drink, which request was refused by
Jacobs, and the door closed and locked. The
door was Immediately reopened By Jacobs,
who struck at Jackson with a sword. In
order to avoid the blow, Jackson endeavored
| to close with him, when he was shot dead
| by Jacobs. This occurred in less time than
| it could be told-so there could have been
no time for dispute.
This, sir, is the evidence adduced before the
| Jury at the inquest who returned verdict
| of WiLlful and deliberate murder against the
man Jacobs and before the Squire, by whom
he was committed to the County Jail. Do
you suppose sir, the gentlemen comprising
that Jury would have returned such yer.
dict against one of their own citizens, il the
case was such as you have represented it2
! have been led to make this correction il
Justice to the dead. Sergeant Jackson was
good and tried soldier, one who tough
through the Mexican War under Genera
Scott where he was severely wounded; tina
he again, although sixty years of age, rallieC
to the support of his Government when i
needed his services, and from his good anC
soldierly conduct, was promoted TO a Ser
geantcy in my company.
One thing more respecting Camp Johr
Mclean: had it not been for the strict disci
pline Of the Seventy fifth, and the efficiency
Of its Colonel, your report of descent upol
the house and inmates of Jacobs grog-shol
might have proved correct after the repOr
of the brutal murder reached there, and b,
the hands of man Of noted Secesh princi
pies.
An insertion of this statement in your val
liable paper would oblige,
Yours, respectfully,
B, MORGAN, Captain Company F,
Seventy fifth Regiment.
