up forever. Look in her eyes, We gloomy
philosophers, and tell me, if you dare,

See the trusting, the heroic devotion
which impels her to leave country, par
ents, for q comparative stranger. She
has launched her frail bark upon wide
and stormy sea she has handed over her
happiness and doom for this world to
anOther's keeping; but she has done it
fearlessIy, for love whispers to her that
her chosen guardian and protector bears
. manly and noble heart Oh, woe to
him that forgets his oath and his man.

We have all read the history Of the

The Laborors Bear the Burdens OEthe
War.

The odious feature in the conscriptior
Law that exempts, practically, the capital
ist from the burdens Of the war, and from
participation in its dangers, while it de.
mands the body of the laborer, is no more
unjust in principle than are the laws for
the raising Of revenue. Under the present
tariff and the internal tax and revenue
laws, the laborers are paying nine-tcnths
of the income received by the government
from those sources. 1t is q matter of in
difference to importers what the duties are
upon the goods they import, for the amount
10 added to the price at which the goods
are sold. As the tariff is most onerous up
on articles Ofgeneral use, while luxuries
are lightly taxed, it is plain that the work.
ng.classes-farmers, mechanics, and daily
la6orers-pay in the consumption Of these
articles the great portion of the tariff tax.
The tariff on woolens and cottons amounts
to Q virtual prohibition, and enables New
England manufacturers to place their own
prices upon their cotton and wooden fab
RIGS. In these two articles alone, which
are indispensable in every family, we may
trace the injustice which operates through,
itsl and against law.
In tracing through the taxes imposed by
the internal revenue law, the same injustice
is apparent. The staples used by all clas-
ses, but most generally used by laborers,
are most heavily taxed.
On ell articles manufactured Of copper,
cotton, fax, glass, hemp, India rubber,
iron, ivory, lead, leather, paper, steel, tin.
willow, wood, wool and worstcd, there is
imposed uniform tax Of three per cent.
We have already shown that the tariff on
cotton and woOlen goods amounts to pro-
hibition, and here is an additional tax Of
three per cent, imposed. The tax doesnot
affect the manufacturers, but comes direct.
ly:from the pockets Of the laborers who are
compelled to buy these goods. They are
compelled to buy them because they are
necessities. Leather Of all descriptions is
taxed Eve per cent. in the tariff laws, and
is again taxed three per cent. in the inter
nal revenue law. Indeed, most Of the ar
ticles enumerated above are heavily taxed
In the tariff laws.
II is indisputable that the capitalists
and manufacturers Of New England fash.
ioned the revenue laws to accommodate
their own interests, and that we have new
er bad so unjust class of legislation in
this country before. 1t has been the OBJ
ject of tariff laws hitherto 10 guard the in
terests of the laborers, and make the cap
ital Of the country bear its just proportion
of the national burdens. But that is now
reversed. Capital is steadily increasing
VVnAop tho onaratinnc Oftho Uor ubila th n
exactions and dangers ofthe war are pass
cd upon the laborers.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 1.-THE Washing

BALTIMORE, Jan. 1.-THE Washing
ton Mtelligencer publishes eight columns
Of the intercepted rebel dispatches, some
Of them being letters of introduction to
Mason and Slidell. The first is letter
from Secretary Ben dated Septem
Der last, exaggerating all the rebel vic
tories and summing up the Federal loss
es TO that time at $4,000.
The most important part Of the cores
pondence relates to a movement by the
French Consuls at Galveston and Rich
mond, said TO have originated in Paris,
TO induce Texas to secede from the
Southern Confederacy and establish an
independent government.
The result Of this discovery was an
order to Magruder to send the Consul
at Galveston to Mexico rs soon rs posi-
BILE, and the Richmond Consul was or.
dered to leave forthwith The order
with regard to the latter was, however,
rescinded.
1t further appears that the reception
awarded by Earl Russell to Mr., Com.
missioner Mason at London, is not such
as COMFORTS with the lauer's sense OF
proprietv, or with the expectations OF
The Confederate authorities at Richmond.
Mason is, however, complmanted for his
solf-abnegation in consenting 10 remain
at his post, Notwithstanding the annoy
ances to which he conceives himself sub
iec'el by the evident GOODNESS Of The
British Secretary.
Tie second portion Of this correspon
dence relates to the European operations
Of the Confederate Treasury and Navy
departments. Meminger explains the
schemes devised for raising money in
England by the hypo,hecation of cotton
in the Confederate States, the modus
operandi by which the cotton can be
transmitted in British naval vessels from
The blockaded ports, and TO be employed
in England for war purchases and pay
ments, and received elucilation OF the
bonds of the Confederate Secretary OF
tie Navy, while the use to which a por-
ton of the funds is to be put finds ex-
