Our OF THE RINa.-The rebel Secretary Of
the Treasury, in reply to resolution Of the
House of Representatives, asking what pro
gress had been made in collecting the taxes,
says that $50 far as informed, the work Of as.
sessing and collecting the taxes is now being
prosecuted vigorously in all the States of the
Confederacy, except Arkansas, Tennessee, Lou
isianna and Texas" NothingIis said of Missouri
Kentucky, West Virginia, or "My Maryland" !"
In regard to the latter, it is curious that the
only State in which the Confederacy put in
the posseSsive case is most thoroughly in the
objective. 1t will be seen that the States in
which the Confederacy can lay no imposts,
either on property or men, send enough rep
resentatives to control Confederate legisla-
tion.

ONO LEGIsLATURH AND President LINCOLN.
"A caucus of the Union members of the
Ohio Legislature was held Saturday evening
last, in the Hall Of the House of Representa-
tives, for the purpose of considering the pro-
pris!y of taking action in reference to the
coming Presidential election. After consid-
erable DISCUSSION, Che general tenor of the re-
marks being favorable to an Immediate ex-
preston in faver Of the denomination of Mr..
Lincoln, q resolution to that effect was offered
by Senator Connell and adopted by uDani-
nous vote, {. the members, one and all, says a
reporter who was present, "rising to their feet,
and giving three rousing cheers for Abraham
Lincoln" A very few of the members, who
did not approve Of the action, or preferred
another candidate, were not present when the
vote was taken. Subsequently ninety out of
the one hundred and seven Union members Of
the two Houses, attached their signatures to
the fOllOwing-aix refusing to sign and several
being absent:
CoLUMBUs, Ono, Feb. 27.
At a convention Of Union members Of the
General Assembly, held on the evening of the
9th Of February, the following resolution wa
adopted:
" Resolved, That, in the opinien Of this Con,
Vention, the people Of Ohio and her soldiers il
the field demand the denomination of A5rA
ham Lincoln to the Presidency of the United
States
The undersigned Senators and Represents
tives, speaking for ourselves and unOficially
concur in the opinion expressed in the forego-
ing resolution.
Our Representative, Hon. j. r. HUBBELL
Speaker Of the House, advocated the adoption
Of the resolution in caucus and is one of thos'
whose signatures have since been attached
In this action he reflects the almost if moi
quite unanimous sentiment of those who's
votes elected him-for without disparagemen
to other able and distinguished gentlemen
named in connection with the Presidency,
must beadmitted that among the Union mel
of this county, the prOpriety and expediepe.
Of the denomination OF Mr.. Lincoln is univer
sally conceded. So far as We can learn, there
no diversity of opinion on the question.

A formidable petition, for the abolition Of

Of whom "a, ,399 were men, 6s,a Oh, women.
The signers represented all the loyal States.

The address of the " Confederate Congress, !"
though writes in inflated and exaggerated style
gloried in by the Southern politicians, is, in
some respects, very cool document. All
that was intended by secession, they are kind
enough to say, was to break up the "old
Union" and form an independent confederacy.
founded on "the proper relations between cap
ital and labor" The doctrine is that the cap
italists should own labor; and it will be obser-
we'd that no distinction is made as to the COL
or of the laborer. According to the Confed-
crate Congress the laborsr, without restriction
as to color, ought to be owned-he is, prop
erly, the property of the apitalists--should
be the slave of his employer. 1t was expec-
ted that the people of the great free States
would quietly and in perfect peace permit the
disruption of the Union and the establish
ment of an independent Confederacy on the
old national territory, with such ideas as this
on the proper relations between man and man.
The Southern Congressman too, claim all the
States where slavery existed when secession
commenced. and the terms OF peace they would
accept, are merely au acknowledgement of the
Southern COnfederacy. with its northern
boundary line including Maryland all of Vir-
ginia, Kentucky and Missouri. Such terms
of peace they are encouraged to believe are
favored by o powerful political party in the
North. Is there such party?

Z. The Endurance of BLACK SOLDIER.

The Tribune's correspondent, in speaking
of the recent movement of General Butler
against Richmond, speaks thus of the negro
soldiers:
awe direct the attention of the United
States Senate to the following extract from a
letter, which we print elsewhere, describing
some incidents Of General Buffers late expidi-
tion against Richmond"
Gas result of this hard marching on the
first day over two hundred had fallen out
Of the United States regiments from exhaus-
tion. When our forces reached Bottoms
bridge, and discovered that their attempted
surprise had been exposed, it is estimated
that fully one-half of the white soldiers who
commenced the march had given out, aHd the
roads back to Williamsburg were lined with
stragglsrs. But have the authority of cap
tain in one of the white regiments for the
statement that not single colored soldier fell
out from illness, exhaustion, or any other
cause, and when the roll was called before the
ordered retreat, every single sable son who
had started on the march was present and an
swered to his name"

slavary their Idol.

The Northern Democrats are still wedde
to their old idol. They still hold fast to the
delusion that Southern slavery somehow is to
come back to them some fine day, and restore
to them the spoiIs and plunder as the national
political balance of power. But the new idea
Of the complete and permanent removal of this
stumbling block of slavery by constitutional
amendment is rapidly working its way through
all the channels of public opinion; SO that we
anticipate that before the close of the pre- sent
session of congress a majority of two-th irds
will be found even in the House in favor of
the scheme. Forty-six mem bers were absent
or failed to vote on the question Monday, and
they, we guess, are mostly men who are now
astride the fence. Their voices added to the
affirmative vote given will make up the re-
quired two-thirds' vote to pass the amend
meut; and it will not be long before these
fence men will learn on which side to come
down. Let the friends of the measure keep
up the fire New York Herald, I7th.
