No mail was received by yesterdays
stages from La Crosse. The local mail
agent at that place tenders the stereotyped
Rouse of "snow on the La Crosse road. -
We are among those who think thi. excnse
about ''played out" and that there is
something behind it that needs investiea-
ton. Our mails have been more irregular
this winter than ever before, and it is time
that inquiries were instituted to, ascertain
the cause. The stages between st. Paul
and La Crosse have run with great regu-
larity, scarcely missing trip during the
winter, no matter what obstacles they have
had to encounter; but once a week at
least, and sometimes oftener, they come
without the mail. There is great irregu-
larity along the whole line between here
and New York 1t has been the rule
rather than the exception to get from two
to five dates at once of the New York
journals, and we presume letters have been
delayed in like manner. This is an impo-
sition that works great annoyance to bust
ness men, and they should endeavor to Tx
the blame where it belongs, and see that
remedy is applied, p. ba aa-.s.
A WASHINGTON correspondent, under
date of February 4, says that the debate
in the Senate on the whisky tax shows that
many of our legislators have arrived at the
conclusion that when revenue policy is
laid down, it should not be varied or
changed. When system of taxation or
of tariffs is established, it should not be
subject to continual fluctuations, creating
uncertainty and doubt Such confessed
legislation, said Senator FEssENDEN in de-
bate, can but have tendency to diminish
the respect which is entertained for the
Government itself, to diminish confidence
in the Government, confidence in the legls-
lation of the country, and thus to create
very considerable evils .. walks.
Mingled with this desire to deal fairly
with manufacturers, importers and mer-
chants in the imposition of taxes, there is
an evident fear displayed by many mem
bers OF Congress that larger taxes and
larger tariffs must be imposed in order to
meet the demands on the Public Treasury.
Already it is announced that the war esti-
mates must have two hundred millions
added to them, to defray the extra ex-
penses attendant on the recent call for an
additional 200, 900 men, and the most rigid
economists find it difficult to apply the
pruning knife Of retrenchments. .a..s

A HINT TO JEFF. DAvIs.-Gen. Grant
appears to have been acting from the be-
ginning of his first campaign upon a fixed
principle-to take away from the rebels
whatever they declared themselves least
able to spare. In January, 1862, it was
rumOred that the rebel Capital would pre-
sently be removed to Nashville. General
Grant determined to be beforehand with
Davis, moved upon the works of Fort Don
Alison, and after very handsomely capturing
the garrison. with Gen. Buckncr, took pos
session of Nashville. Next, Davis an
nounced to all the world that the fate Of
the confederucy depended uron the fate of
Vicksburg. Hereupon, Grant moved down
and captured that place. East Tennessee
was next declared to be absolutely neces-
sary to the safety Of the rebel cause. The
untiring Grant no sooner heard this than
he sent Sherman to Knoxville to drive of
Longstreet and leisurely drove Bragg away
from Chattanooga. It's now Davis's turn /;
will he kindly mention another point the
possession of which is necc scry to his
peace Of mind and to the success Of his
plot against the Union? General Grant
waits.
