The anxiety Of our people for tie
fate Of Richmond is indeed, astonish-
ing. Our faces brigten and all seem
cheerful. when intelligence Of sue
cessive victories reach us; yet. if re-
port says that We have met with one
reverse on the field. dependency
Immediately exhibits it's stamp upon
all. This is highly wrong, as the
good must be followed BY the bad.
True. the enemy may bring such a
force to bear upon Lees army as
would cause him TO retreat and per-
init the Fedrrals to take possession
Of Richmond. Still, the unwaverng
confidence We place i'll Lee and his
gallant army, satisfies Il. that he will
prevent it. The poor facilities afford
ed for obtaining positive information
from the east, debars even a conjec-
,ure Of the result Of that tremendous
engagement. Both parties will strain
every nerve for the uprermos, in the
contest, and it would not be astonisil-
ing. if the enemy takes Richmond, to
hear OF Lees retaliating by Selling
the opportunity. and placing himself
in Washington, thereby E,aking an
equal thing of it. While we cannot
believe that Lee will be defeated, We
suggest to our readers to offer up their
prayers to the Almighty ia behalf of
our cause and to compose themselves
in the belief, that the enemy has been
routed. aud csr word for it, all will
be we'll in III. end. Everything
which happens. in our opinion, is io-
the best.

abiding to the financial f,llics OF
Secretary Chase. rclnarks,
The financial policy of America
exceeds European comprehension, -
Mere extravaganza is, certainly.
neither novel nor surprising char
acteriatic of national expenditure in
fact, sound public economy forms
an exception rather than rule i'll the
administration Of Suites. But in
Europe when country is in diiiicul-
ties the misfortune is publicly con-
fesscd whereas in America, though
the prodigality Of the government is
beyond all conception. aud debts are
accruing at rate absolutely unex-
ampled, the finance minister Gocs not
seem to take the matter t" heart. or
to imagine that the difficulty in pros
pcct is worth consideration. In
America not the least approach is
made to equilibrium between taxa
ton and expenditure. The tcdcrals
are spending nearly three times AS
mach as We spend. and yet they are
paving in taxes not much above half
us much as we pay. Their expen-
diture at this moment is certainly not
less than one hundred and ninety mil
lion pounds. To meet this, Mr.. Chase
does not so much rs propose TO raise
more than torty-fve million pounds,
and ii is by no means sure That lie
will succeed i'll getting even this
Last year the results fell far short Of
his calculations. and this year they
may Go SO again. In any case, how
ever, there will be Il deficit of some
thing like one hundred aud fifty mil
lion pounds, which will be ,.vt by
borrowing. and that ENORMOUS SUN
will be added to the national debt.
1t was suggested even in Congress
that the customs and excise dut1es
should be doubled but customs al
ready yield good third of the whole
federal revenue. and Mr.. Chase has
hitherto entire! Y failed to make any
thing ont Of the excise. He reckon
cd last year upon cTj,0O0,0O0 from
tia; Suurce. and obtained less than
c7,odt.00o. All this while, too,
event these financial rcformcrs shoul!
succeed in getting their propositions
adopted, the deficit would still be
going on nj the rate of clO0.OoO.OUO
a year. They propose TO raise 5e7o,-

Sij,O0o,ooo. and mainly, 4.
