TAXATION IN ENGLAND The following facts
in regard TO taxation in England will be of IN.
terest TO our readers at this time: In 1862, the
revenue of the United Kingdom was about $685.,
OOOpOO Of which customs contributed $780, O0..
OOO excise, $50 600 900; stamps, S45 900 0O0 land
and assessed taxes. Sl50U0000; property tax.
S550OO; post office. 3.0O0,0O0; other receipts,
Sl2. 100000 Spirits, with duty of S2.50 per gal
lon contribute $4,000, 00Oto the Treasury; sugar
with a duty of three cents per pound, S33 O0OOO0
tea with duty Of IS cents per pound, S2S, 1000
These four articles pay Sl02, 000.OO0-s5 per cent
of the entire sum reesiusd from customs, and more
than tlco-seuetsths of the entire reuenHs. Of the
revenue from excise, domestic spirits with a tax
of $3.50 PER gallon, contribute SJO,OO0,0OO, and
malt and hops, S300000O0. These two articles
contribute nearly SO per cent Of the total excise.
Deeds pay S9, 0C0,O0O; probate, Sls,000000 and
fire insurance, 5000, 000-in all 50 per cent of
the entire receipts from stamps. The land tax is
5000, 600 and the tax on horses and carriages,
5000. 600; the income tax, S25,0OO,00O, and the
property tax on lands mines, quarries, etc, $780,
OOO,OOO These faces show that it is not difficult
TO raise large revenue by heavy taxes on few
articles chiefly Injuries. The Bank circulation
ofthe United Kingdom is Sl79 900, 600, which was
a few millions less than our own Bank circulation
for a few years before the war. The circulation
of the Bank Of England is Sl05,0CO,OO0 The
whole amount of Revenue is nearly double the
amount of the Bank circulation, clearly showing
that heavy taxes may be collected without great
EXPANSION of the currency.

"Dor."-We have received communica-
ton over the above signature, propouniing
certain questions and expressing certain
views upon the currency question. The cor
respondent is mistaken as to the object OF the
proposed movement. Il is not, as he sup
poses, 10 "give validity to the act of Congress
making currency notes legal tender" No.
body disputes the legality of such tender
It's to change the basis of business transac-
tons. At present, all contracts are made in
this Territory upon the basis Of a gold STAN
dard. Such is the understanding between
the employer and the employee. A settle
ment of indebtedness upon any other STAN
dard is dishonest and fraudulent. 1t is true,
as the correspondent says, that the creditor
makes no objection to receiving the amount
due him in green-backs at their market value
in gold. This system, however, makes the
green-backs the merchandise and the luctu-
ating article. In other communities, where
the specie currency is almost unknown, the
currency notes are the firm and established
basis Of all business transactions, it is the
gold that Auctuates and becomes the article
of merchandise. A considerable space is
occupied in our issue Of to-day with the re-
port of the committee on the subject, and to
that report We refer our correspondent for
more extended discussion Of the matter than
we have leisure or space to devote to his en-
lightenment.

A FEW FACTS OF HIsIoRY.-England added
S3,Il3,OOO.O00 to her debts during the twenty-five
years Of her great French wars. Our debt is
nearly 1000 900 900, after a of three years.
Hence i, is reasoned by some that we are going
on At rate Of expenditure that must soon involve
Us in bankruptcy. But the fact is ignored by Our
critics thar England expended during these wars
no less than Sji7l, 600 derived from taxation,
wh.,e we have so far been taxed scarcely $780,
900 OC0 altogether. Says DR.. VIM Elder, of Phila-
deiphia a man who has hardly a superior
writer on political economy: 81 the British
loans had borne the proportion Of receipts from
ordinary sources, her debt in 1861 without the
current interest added would have stood at &c.
SD 1000 0OO instead of 81 800 900 COO This must be
remembered whenever a comparison of the growth
and the amount of our present debt with that of
England is instituted" DR.. Elder still more for.

thaf our people are comparatively fresh, untaSed.

FTJNaUFNT SALES TOMORROW
JUDGE LOCKE

We are informed BY the PlWte, (which
has four separate articles upon the subject
that Judge Locke is, or was, yesterday IN
Virginia, and that he will at ga proper time
and place" answer the charges which have
been made against him through the columns
Of the press of the Territory. What the pro-
per place and when the proper time will be,
we are left to conjecture. The Judge will
use his own discretion in the matter, of
course, and the people must be content to
await his pleasure in the premises. 1t is
subject upon which the public mind is deeply
agi;ated, and the sooner it is explained to
the exculpation of the Judge, the better the
people will be satisfied. The cavalier, non
chalant talk about the proper time and place
i'll becomes Judge Locke, if such is his man
ner of treating the matter. His judicial po-
sition makes him naturally an object Of pub
lie scrutiny, and doubts as to his moral in
tegriiy matter of the deepest public con-
Germ. Such doubts have been created by
articles in the columns of those journals to
which the public look for information upon
topics relating to their welfare. Instead Of
having promptly answered these charges,
Judge Locke has perhaps through an over
estimate OF the peculiar dignity Of his posi-
tom seen fit to adopt totally opposite poll
cy. He, perhaps, entertains so profound a
contempt for those who have assaulted his
character that he deems their attacks unwor-
thy of his notice. Judge Locke is but a
stranger to this people, and it may, perhaps,
not be considered impairment in US to sus-
gest to him, that ne is mistaken in his esti-
mate of them. This people land we speak
advisedly, for it is subject Of much public
comment) regard this silence on his part,
with great diSSatisfacti' n. Many consider
it as tacit admission of his guilt while
others, less prone TO jump at conclusions
and condemn hastily, consider it as at least
a most contemptuouS course towards those
to whom the question Of his innocence or
his corruption is matter Of such vital i'm
port. We will further say to Judge Locke,
and we say it from the bottom Of our heart,
that we would rejoice most heartily at per-
feet clearing up Of the heavy charges now "
ing at his door, and in so speaking we know
that we are uttering the sentiment of every
honest citizen in the community.

SPIRIrrAL.-Report hath it that Lovejoy,

Isl. We expect IT'S so. Saw him in Virginia
yesterday afternoon. The top of his head
has become entirely white his face is closely
shaver, and very long and solemn; besides,
he wears gray coat, with high, stiff col
lar, and the tail Of which extends clear down
to his heels, and wears white choker. It is
rather suspiciOusly reported that he has left
of hard drinking, (but this We don't beliere.)
When we saw him yesterday, he was address,

afinities and their creation. There is evil

over him, which he much needed.

DOES GOLD REGULATE PRIcESf-As the price
of geld goes up the price Of everything else goes
up therefore gold is the eauss Of high prices. So
saw many men aud not a few papers having
reputation for sense and experience. If gold were
the inexorabe cause and the true standard of
values its influence would be regular and uniyer.
sal Is this the case II this were SO, breadstuffs
would be first and most sensibly affected To
show that breadstuffs, -four and grain, have not
thus been affected no tabular statements or deep
calculations are necessary. II is the every day
remark how -four has maintained its evenness OF
price, and how cheap, in comparison with gold
and almost everything else, IL has continued Ii
the assumption n al gold is the regulator Is cor.
rect. hour should have increased in price as gold
has increased whereas, the fact Is, the price OF
breadstus generally Is not materially higher than
when gold bore premium Of only ten per cent.
Now until this can be satisfactorily explained,
the assumption that the price Of gold regulates
the price Of everything else which Is the idea that
is confusing many minds, must be relinquiahed
unsound Suppose gold should go up TO 81,
or say S3-for il may just well go to % as TO
%, or 10 what il Is now, since 1t is purely mat
ter Depreciation among set Of gold gamblers

saries OF life and staple productions Of the coun-
