TAX ON coNFEDERArE SECURITIES.

II was question once long debated.
whether Government has right 10 tax
its own credits. Alexander Hamilton main.
tainrd that TO do so was. pro tanfo. repudi-
aiiun. Ii was curtailment and reduction
Of the promise to pay, which the sanctity
Of contracts forbade. Ii was argued fur
ther, that it the power to tax existed, it
was unwise 10 exercise il. because of its
effect on the public credit, and its depre-
cia,ion of the Goyern,aent securities.
The question has not been raised in the
Confederacy. whether Congress may tax
the bonds whirh the Government has issu-
ed. Ii is not centroverted that such bonds
NAV be taxed where no exemption was
promised. But surely il would be neither
just nor wise to discriminate against the
public securities. To tax them more heasi-
" than other iorms Of property, is for the
Government TO war upon lis own offspring
to brand its own issues. to destroy its own
credit. And yet, this is what a PROPOSE.
tim now pending before Congress. and
which has gained favor in one body. clear
ly proposes TO do.
The late congress passeu q TAX on pro-
perty Of FIVE per cent. on its valuation,
The inequality in the mode of assessing
values created inequalities in burdens
which Congress is proposing to remove,
by q iustrr aud more uniform rule. This
is right; bit the remedy should be applied
evenly and impartially, Or It will create
new har,siips while relieving old ones
The proposition to which we have above
referred is case in point. The law, q.
proposed to be amended, will impose twice
or three times As heavy tax on a thousand
dollars invested in Government securities
as upon the same sum invested in bank OF
railroad stock. The latter stock are valu-
ed according TO their prices before the
war the former are taxed upon their pres.
ent or war prices. Hence the inequality
to which we have referred and hence the
burden and consequent disadvantage which
Congress proposes to fasten on its own is
sues. II any difference is to be made, j
should clearly be the other way. Govern
ment should make it, own securities at
tractiye, it it wishes to give them currenc,
and favor.

GEN. ROBERT Z. LEE.

In the course of a very interesting arti-
Gle on the !" Great Battle Fields" OF Vir-
ginia. the Sentinel takes occasion to pay
the following tribute TO the beloved chief
who has led our armies through nearly all
The scenes that have been enacted on the
soil Of nur State:
On the 3lst of May, 1869, Gen. Johnston
was disabled by rifle shnt on the battle
field Of Seven Pines. The next dsy--just
two years ago--Gen. Lee took command.
Two years! How long they seem to have
been. For these two years Gen. Lee has
led the greatest army OF Northern Virginia.
No man can. know until the records are re-
covered, with what disproportionate means
he has accomplished his great achieve
nents. Hs has had no controversies with
his government. lie has INDUCED in no
murmurs. !" Do the best you can for me
will do the best I can, with what you
give me,"-this has been the sentiment
upon which he has acted. All through the
great battles Of the Chickahominy in 1862.
the great battles Of the Second Manassas,
the capture Of fIsrper's Ferry, the battles
Of South Mountain and Sharpsburg. the
great battles Of Fredericksburg and Of
Chancellcrsvile, the Pennsylvania cam
paign, down to the mighty engagements
yet unconcluded with Gen. Grant, this un-
murmuring patriot and glorious leader has
fought on, lsbored on, with undated and
untIring zeal. foe his country and her cause.
Even now be is in the psrils of the battle.

II the prices of ante war times are to be-
taken as the basis Of taxation, the justest
tax on Confederate bonds would be on
their income, inasmuch as they cannot,
with any accuracy, be assessed according
to prices which prevailed before they came
into existence. If present values are cho-
sen as the standard of taxation, the diff
Guilty Of assessment would be obviated.
But it seems SO evidently unjust. and so
evidently impolitic. for Congress to adopt
unequal standards Of assessment, and to
place,the double or triple burden where, if
any where, it should show its lavors, that
we trust other counsels will prevail. All
complaints will disappear before uniform
rule oil assessment. Richmond Sentinel.

We learn from a weil.informed cerres-
pendent that on Friday last the Yankees at
Newbern sent out to Bachelors Greek four
large torpedoes, to be "planted" in the
Neuse, at Spring Garden, ten miles from
Newbern, to guard against any rebel gun
boats likely to be sent down upon them.
At this point they were removed from the
cars to the commissary building. Three
Of them had been safely deposited, but the
fourth. on entering the building, was struck
so violently that the machine exploded.
The explosion set off" the other three.
and as may be supposed. the four set of"
the building and its contents at rapid
rate through the air.
One hundred men, including twenty ne
groes, were +" within range" OF the missiles.
Of whom sirty-three iUers insisntly killed,
tie rest wounded. Amongst the killed is
notorious Yankee villain. Lieut.. Willis.
We learn, also, that Hezekiah Davis, an
old citizen Of that neighb borhood, was pres
ent and was killed.
! At the scene Of the disaster il is said the
Yankees had erected tall tower or leok>
out. on the top of which Yankee was at
the time posted. The tower suddenly dis
appeared, and il the sentinel on that tower
has yet been found our Informant has not
heard oft.
The explosion was heard twenty miles.
and created great CONSERVATION in the gar
rison at Newbern. The long roll was
beaten, signal guns were fired, and every
preparation was quickly made to meet the
Rebels. Such a scene Of wild confusion is
said to have existed in the good old town
as has never been exceeded, except in the
immediate vicinity Of the explosion.
i We regret the whole internal race was
net within easy range of the torpedoes.
